“Ty was amazing with our 'big baby'. Our dog Tango has anxiety and gets scared really easy, even refusing to go outside sometimes (he came from a bad situation). Ty took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and went above and beyond to help Tango get through a stressful week of storms, not wanting to eat and even letting him be his constant shadow. Ty is definitely a great dog care giver!”
“Jenny was the best sitter I’ve ever met on Rover, hands down! She gave me regular updates about my pup and sent me tons of photos. I never needed to worry about my dog; Jenny always made sure I knew how he was doing. Will absolutely book her again!!”
“Jamie was amazing went above and beyond for our Pug whose allergies were acting up and gave her a bath. Jamie kept us updated and informed and sent lots of pictures to make us feel at ease. Highly recommend and definitely will use her services again!”
“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”
“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”
About: Love all fur babies. Have been taken care of all sorts of critters since I was little. Love all shapes and sizes. Excited to start babysitting. I worksl from home full time and we are home most days. Walks and plenty of play time in our back yard would hapen all day. We have a nice big fenced in back yard and theee dogs and two cats that love to play. We love playing fetch and have lots of toys.
“This was my first time leaving my dog Emmett with a sitter from Rover and I was very nervous. Ty's frequent professional communication leading up to Emmett's stay, along with excellent reviews from others in the community who know Ty (including his Coulee Region Humane Society volunteer supervisor) put my mind at ease. Then Emmett's initial "trial" morning with TY was a big success! Emmett enjoyed playing his favorite game of "popcorn throws" with Ty and getting lots of snuggles. Already have booked Emmett for a longer stay with Ty when I need to be out of town for work next month :) Thank you Ty!”
“Monica was so great with our dog Finn while we were away for a weekend. She was super responsive and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her!”
“Chris and Janelle made our girls feel right at home. It was nice to get updates on how things were going. We will definitely contact them when we need a dog sitter. Awesome!!!”

Currently I am not available to do dog boarding in my own home however I would love to take your fur babies on a walk Only able to service the city limits of La Crosse, Onalaska, and La Cresent I would be more than happy to watch your animals at your home. I do my best to respect your family and your belongings while I am in your home.
“Wendy gets 5 stars-without hesitation! Charley has only been there once, but we've already scheduled his second stay with her. Wendy walked him daily and made sure he got frequent outside breaks. He enjoyed her little dogs and she gave him supplements and treats during the day. Wendy sent us updates and pictures of Charley and treated him like one of her own.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Onalaska is $40

Jenny is amazing! She has clearly been a super dog lover for years, as not even our crazy, no bubble, pups fazed her! She might be the only person I have ever met that enjoys and loves dogs the way I do. She sent us plenty of videos and photos while we were gone, along with texts on how they were which was so reassuring. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be having her care for our pups again in the future!
Julie did a fantastic job with our two doggos, Poppy and Murphy! They were so right at home with her and her "Dog Whisperer" partner, Ross. Julie's dog Ollie welcomed them into his own realm and they all ventured to the neighborhood dog park for social media time. Julie sent photos and kept us updated so we felt really comfortable on our first big trip away from our beloved pooches. Will definitely book with Julie again!!

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Onalaska home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Onalaska.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Onalaska sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
