“Chelsea and her family have been watching Bowser and Bali regularly and it is always such a comfort to know they are in such good hands while I’m traveling for work. They love coming over and runs to the door every time we get here. And Chelsea is so thoughtful in the way that she will help to make sure that the visit goes well. We could not recommend Chelsea more! She is amazing!!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life I have taken care of dogs in the past as well as I have four dogs of my own right now. I have the privilege of fostering through our pack animal rescue Inc and have saved 81 dogs. With that process I have had dogs that are dominant submissive some dogs that are high energy some dogs that are extremely scared and timid some dogs that do not get well with other dogs or do not get well with cats. We have worked with them trained Incorporated them into the pack. I feel that fostering has helped me grow and learned different breeds and personalities and ages. I have a such a passion for dogs I've loved them I love everything about them and I'm very amazed by your personality and instincts. As of right now I am home. I am a mom to 5 kids, 4 dogs, and two cats. I Foster through our pack animal rescue so I always have extra dogs in the house as well. There will be plenty of time for exercise and socialization if that is something you were looking for. My evenings are the busiest due to my kids being involved in things. Most weekends I am available as well. I have a fenced in yard. I am capable of separating dogs if need be I have space for kennels if that is what you choose. My dogs have been around others and are used to sharing their space due to fostering. I go for walks daily I am able to handle multiple dogs at a time as well. Just like our fosters when we have a dog in our home we respect its boundaries and also give them all the love that they deserve. This of course as well goes into play if not at my house if at client's house. As I do have a husband and five children I will be the only one managing feeding letting out and any other things that was specifically for your dog. This would be for the safety of everyone and for the responsibility and liability of me.
“We had such a great experience with Brooke! We got regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We would absolutely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“Kristina was a wonderful stepmom to our dog, Luna. Luna came back to us in great health and very happy. Kristina was very accommodating and polite with all communication. She was always quick to respond to any message I sent her. Luna kept her same routine and Kristina was even very willing to give Luna meds she needed. I would recommend anyone to use Kristina for their dog sitting needs and we will certainly ask her to watch Luna again!”
“Kathy did a great job. She came through for me at a moments notice when my boarder had a cancellation. Her dogs did well with my boy. He came home happy and tired which is a good thing.”
“Frank & Julie are Phenomenal! I was quite nervous about trying again to find temporary care for my dog after a poor experience on another pet sitting app. I read all the other positive reviews for this couple and anxiously decided to move forward with booking. I am so pleased with the care they provided! I feel they went above and beyond for my dog. I'm so grateful I found them instead of boarding, where he'd have had very little attention and interaction. Instead he got the love and attention he could want and all the comforts of home. I will happily continue to use their service.”
“My Sheltie,Cody, absolutely loves when he gets to stay at Gina’s house. He goes on walks with her and has lots of fun and friends to hang out with. I can leave leave him with her and know he’s in the best care. Hands down…without a doubt…Gina is my go-to dog sitter. If I can’t get Gina I don’t go on vacation, simple as that 💙💜💙”
“Sue & Mark were the perfect hosts for Lucy. Lucy is shy but she warmed up to them right away. They welcomed her into their home and kept me updated. I will be scheduling with them again in the near future.”
“Maria took such great care of our pup while we were away! She sent us pictures with updates, which made us feel connected! I highly recommend Maria for care, we will be booking again for future needs!”
“We have never boarded our cat before but needed to in order to allow for open house to be held at our home. Korri was communicative, kind, and fair in her pricing. She had an extra room available for our cat who doesn’t always get along with other cats which provided peace of mind leaving our 10yo cat. We received multiple updates and photos every day which further eased our minds. Would definitely book with Korri again!”
“I want to thank Bobbie and Clark for their excellent care of Leo. They helped us out on very short notice due to a prior cancellation. Daily communication with pictures. I know Leo was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Bobble and Clark.”
“Bobbi is great! She took great care of our dog, and was very flexible when we had some last minute changes to our booking. We would definitely bring our dog to stay at Bobbi’s again - thank you!!”
“Very nice couple! We could tell they really cared about our dog and wanted to give her a good experience. She is older and has many different medications that need to be given at all different times and they handled all this very well. Highly recommend.”
“We had a great experience with Jill! From the beginning, she was super responsive and easy to communicate with. She took excellent care of our dog and kept us updated with pictures during his stay. She even brought him to our wedding so we could get a picture with him. Jill is so sweet and we will definitely be booking her again!”
“Amazing person! She knew how it was my first time getting a puppy sitter and I was worried and not let alone nervous but Emily was 100% able to re-ensure me that My baby girl would do Amazing! Love Emily and her family already for doing such amazing job with my baby girl and prove to me that everything WILL be okay!! She even sent me pictures and videos, I had tons of happy tears even though I missed my baby girl!!”
“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful! Her and her family took amazing care of Monty while we were away — sending regular updates, photos, and making sure he got plenty of love, walks, and playtime. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. I’d definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“This was Lanny's first time "away from us" for an extended period of time, and Alysa made him feel right at home in her house. She sent pictures and messages during his stay, and when I went to pick him up he looked very at ease and didn;t want to leave. I will definitely be booking with Alysa again!!!!!”
“I don’t know what I would do without Kimberly she is so fantastic. She taught LaRena how to shack this overnight visit. LaRena didn’t want to leave she has so much fun. I can’t thank Kimberly enough I had day surgery and I didn’t worry at all about what I was going to do with LaRena”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Ostrander 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 Ostrander.
<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 Ostrander 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.
