“Alexandra was great! She provided us with regular updates so we knew our pets were getting the care they need. We can tell they had a good weekend with her. We will definitely be booking again. Thanks, Alexandra!”

“Dustin came to dog sit for me at a last minute request! He even offered to stay late for me until my next door neighbor could take over, due to her having flight delays. Thanks so much for taking care of my girl, Dustin! 🥰🐾🐕”

“Seanna was great. She sent lots of pictures and updates. I was very comfortable being gone and knowing my 2 dogs were in good hands. I will definately be using her in the future.”


About: Hi! My name is Malia and I am a sophomore at UW Madison studying Psychology! I’ve grown up caring for my family’s Golden Retriever for the past 12 years, along with helping care for my grandma’s dogs—a rescue mix and a poodle. I’ve always loved spending time with animals, and getting to meet new furry friends is one of my favorite parts of pet sitting! As I mentioned, I’m currently a full time college student, and I have a small part time job at an after school camp for kids. I will try my best to accommodate to everyone’s schedule and hope you understand that I may need flexibility to provide the correct and attentive care for your furry friends :) When I’m caring for your pet, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll follow their normal routine, provide plenty of attention, keep them fed, exercised, and happy, and make sure they receive the care they deserve. I’ll also stay in touch throughout the visit with updates and photos, and I’ll always contact you right away if I have any questions or concerns.
“Louisa and Sammy did an excellent job of taking care of our 7 month old puppy! They spent time playing with her and working with her on training so she is prepared for her puppy class tomorrow! Thank you!”

“Samantha was phenomenal! She provided great communication and provided good updates with my dog. She took amazing care of him. I had her housesitting for me and she was extremely respectful of my apartment as well. I would absolutely have Samantha help me out again!”

“It was so nice to know we had a reliable, kind and experienced pet sitter! Amy took care of our two dogs, cat, and gecko and sent great pictures during her stay. We were lucky to have her!”

“Askley dog sitted at our house for the weekend. She was very responsive to initial inquiry as well as continued communication. She was professional yet very friendly and asked appropriate questions about our dogs . Our dogs are quite a handful but she developed a fast relationship with them. She sent pictures and brief update daily. So glad we found an amazing caregiver thru Rover!”

“Ashley exceeded all my expectations taking care of my two dogs and cat. She was very communicative, sending me lots of updates and how they were doing. She took great care of my condo as well. I would highly recommend her! She is a very sweet person!”

“Tucker did a great job watching Zoe & Mocha - regularly sent photos, provided updates from each visit, and was very communicative in providing care.”

About: I have experience from dogs, cats, chickens, to reptiles since I was a kid. Definitely know how to be friendly to animals, read body language, and adapt. I routinely pet-sit my elderly neighbor’s tabby, my friend’s tortoiseshell cat and cocker spaniel, my boyfriend’s black lab, and my cousin’s scottish folds. I have been continuously contacted to play, walk, feed, and poop-scoop their pets and enjoy each others company. I am a recent graduate taking a gap year so my schedule is flexible. Plenty of time to play and take care of your pets. I follow and respect all given instructions. I also make it a point to reach out whenever there are concerns or to send some updates/pictures. I genuinely care about the well-being of your pets and respecting your time.
“Karina was amazing with our pup! She sent frequent updates and pics and even bought her little treats. She was incredibly flexible with our dates and times, and went above and beyond any sitter we’ve ever had- both for our dog and kids. And super affordable. Highly recommended!!!”


About: As I mention elsewhere on my profile, I am currently a sophomore studying at uw madison to be a veterinarian (with a specialization in exotics). I have experience in canine and feline training + harness and leash experience in both species. I have grown up around many different of animals, and have been dog-walking and pet-sitting since 8th grade. In WI, I have 1 cat that I adore. At home, I have 4 cats, 1 large dog, 1 leopard gecko, 2 rats, 1 cockatiel, and several fish. I have multiple years of experience in care and husbandry with many different animals. No pet is too out of th ordinary for me! I am currently a sophomore at UW Madison studying animal sciences on a pre-veterinary track! I would be happy to come in between classes, overnights, etc. I have leash and harness experience with felines and canines. I also have personally trained my family dog over 20 commands and behaviors. I also am experienced in other animals’ care, (I have a leopard gecko, cockatiel, and 2 rats at home.) For house sitting, I am extremely respectful, especially knowing that felines can be more iffy around strangers. I will not bring guests or do anything to make your babies uncomfortable!

“Christina was great! She was punctual, communicative and ensured our girls were comfortable and safe throughout her stay. She gave periodic updates and asked questions as needed. We came home to happy girls! Thanks again, Christina”

“We have used so many dog sitters over the last ten years in the various places we’ve lived, and none of them have had to deal with even half the things Mary had to manage during her few days staying with Pax. In the very first day after we left, Pax was experiencing lots of GI symptoms which led to a lot of cleaning up after him. He also threw up his medications, leading to him having seizures. Mary was so communicative, patient, and calm throughout all of it. Last but not least, she also alerted us right away when our upstairs neighbors hit a pipe, causing a flood in our apartment. She helped to move things around in our apartment, tried to do what she could to protect our things, and was able to wait with Pax while we figured out other arrangements. Mary is truly an angel and we are so thankful she was there with Pax through all of that. We only hope that the experience didn’t scar her for life and we’ll be able to see her again!”

“Sarah was absolutely amazing!!! She sent regular updates and pictures and our pets loved her. She took such good care of our cats and dogs and we felt so good having her with our babies while we were gone. She gave us great peace of mind. They all loved her, even our shy guy came out for snuggles. Sarah is great and will definitely be our first call anytime we need someone to hang with our crew.”

“We love Sophie! She’s been sitting for our Charlie for a long time, and she’s never anything other than responsible, communicative, kind, and professional. Charlie adores her, and we always feel safe and happy traveling when Charlie is with Sophie.”

Jake is an excellent sitter! He is a strong communicator, provided frequent updates and photos, and reached out when needed. He did great with keep the fairly simple routine and made sure Jax and Laken got playtime to burn off extra energy -love this!! He loved on our dogs so much that they now expect daily walks from us too! 🤣 He gave us so much peace of mind while we traveled…Jake far exceeded our expectations and look forward to booking his services for our future trips.

Even after only a short introduction, I immediately felt at ease leaving my 9‑year‑old Yorkie, Zoey, in Malia’s care for four days. She exceeded every expectation—responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring. Zoey was happy and well‑loved, and my apartment was spotless when I returned. I’m incredibly grateful for her help and would recommend her without hesitation. I hope to see Malia again soon. Thanks so much, Malia!
I don’t know how to adequately express how grateful we are that we hired Stella. If you want the short version without the saga: Stella is THEE best dog sitter EVER. I will hire her again and again!! Smudge loved her immediately at our meet and greet, and we felt completely comfortable leaving him with her. Then, just before our trip, Smudge had X-rays on his leg and became very sick afterward. We were worried sick. I had Stella come over a second time so I could walk her through the probiotics and instructions from our vet, hoping he would be back to himself in a few days. We had to leave the next day. What happened after we left was something none of us could have imagined, and I cannot imagine what we would have done if Stella hadn’t been the person caring for him. She tried everything to get Smudge to eat and kept us regularly updated on how he was doing. When she became concerned that he wasn’t improving, she proactively told us she thought he needed to go to the emergency vet. She packed his bed into her car so he’d be comfortable and took him. When the first treatment of fluids and anti-nausea medication didn’t work, she took him back to the ER, where he ultimately had to be hospitalized. Stella took a day off work to care for him. When Smudge came home, she dealt with vomit and accidents, did laundry, cleaned up after him and continued caring for him through all of it. She never once complained or made us feel like any of this was an inconvenience. And after Smudge finally started getting better, Stella herself got sick. She cared for our boy as though he were her own dog. She advocated for him when he needed more care, and I truly believe she saved his life. You would be crazy not to hire this amazing human to care for your pets. Stella is 100% part of our family now. If she ever needs anything from us, I hope she knows she can ask. We will never forget what she did for Smudge, and we will be forever grateful to her.

Brenda did a wonderful job taking care of our 4 cats and a bearded dragon while we were away. She picked up on our cats' personalities as soon as she met them! While some communications were a little slow, Brenda sent us updates and pictures while we were away which was much appreciated. I would hire her again.
Eric and Rachel were absolutely amazing with our pups! In fact, we already rebooked them before this first booking was even done because we were so happy with how they were treating our pups and their great communication. We have older dogs and our oldest is 14 with some health issues. We haven’t used a pet sitter since our dogs were much younger. So we were very nervous going into this, but Eric and Rachel took amazing care of our dogs, we’re patient loving with them, and always sent us updates and pictures. They also took great care of our home while they were staying there. They and their dog Lilo all have experience with rescue dogs, and you can see that and how they were able to adapt to the quirks and needs of our older dogs. Would recommend without hesitation!
Zachary went above and beyond while watching our 10 month old puppy, taking him to the dog park, or dropping him off at doggy daycare everyday we were away. It is obvious that our pup loves his time with him and we appreciate the excellent communication and updates we get during our time away from home.

Katie was an amazing sitter for our 20 week old puppy, Hutch. She kept him to a schedule that ensured the right amount of rest for his growing limbs and plenty of engagement for his growing brain and social skills. We came home to a happy, healthy boy. She was so great about updating us on his day and introducing him to neighbors. She also kept an eye on the house, kindly ensuring all was well for our weekend away. 11 out of 10 for Katie!
