“Ky was great! I was very comfortable leaving my pets in her care, and she took great care of them. She communicated well, sent pictures off and on throughout our vacation. She left everything in good shape and the pets seemed well cared for when we got back.”
“Nicole did a great job taking care of our pack. She was very communicative with us. She sent pictures along the way and made sure all of our dogs were well taken care of. Left us some pictures when we got home as well to see how they did. Great experience and allowed us to enjoy our vacation stress free. Thanks!!”
“Michelle was prompt, kept in touch every day while we were away, and took great care of Cotton and Maizey, including making sure Cotton got all her meds every day. She was flexible when our plans had to change at the start of our trip. This was our first time using a dog sitter who stayed at our house, and Michelle made us feel really comfortable. We’ve just arrived home to two happy and healthy pups. Thanks Michelle!”
“We were extremely pleased with the diligent care Monica provided for our 4-year-old Miniature Australian Shepherd. She did an excellent job not only watching Jaco, but also taking great care of our home while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands. We would absolutely use Monica again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Kelly was amazing for an extended stay at our house, watching our Australia Shepherd and two cats. Kelly was responsive and thorough with updates. We felt at ease for our whole trip knowing that Kelly was there to keep our fur babies safe and happy while we were gone. Great communication and just a really kind, thoughtful person. We hope to book her again for future needs! 😊”
“Heidi was truly amazing… She really took great care of my little guy while he was in recovery after an unexpected surgery. She kept me in the loop on everything that was happening and really helped keep my mind at ease when I was unable to be there. Very grateful to have found her, and will definitely use again in the future.”
About: Have administered specialized medicine to senior animals for ongoing diseases such as kidney disease and hyperthyroidism. Was very diligent nursing my senior kitty before he passed. I work and go to school so my schedule varies but I always have some nights and mornings free each week that I would love to use on animals. I understand and respect animals boundaries and try my best not to encroach them. I've also mastered the "foot as barrier" approach when opening doors.
About: I started dog sitting my freshmen year of high school and quickly grew my business as people heard about my service. I am dedicated to making both you and your pet feel comfortable while separated. I am currently a full-time college student, so my hours are strict. I am free most weekends and will be available for drop-ins during the weekdays and can spend the night if needed. I will stick to the routine your pet knows best and ensure they are given plenty of love and attention while you are away. I strive to go above and beyond so that you come home to a happy pet!
About: (I go by Dakota, so some testimonies might call me that) I started off pet sitting for neighbors when I was about 14. I would feed, let out, and walk the dogs, and feed and clean cat litter boxes as needed. I moved up to dog sitting for family friends, old coworkers, and coworkers’ clients about three years ago, where I would do the same, and even bathe dogs if needed. I have experience pet sitting rodents and reptiles as well! I am currently not working a job, so I have all the time to give your babies the love and attention they need and deserve! I have experience with body language in dogs, so I can always tell when your baby is happy, upset, or uncomfortable. If you don’t have a fenced in yard, no problem! I can take your fur baby on a secure leash outside!

I would love to be a part of your fur babies journey!! :) I am fully available and very flexible with scheduling. I’d love to grow in experience and gain the skills I need to best take care of your pets(Home Experience Not Professional) I’m always available to take a stroll, play, and hang out with your fur babies. I will do my best to keep them happy and let them sight see. Thank you for the opportunity. I will always respect your space and follow the directions you give me. I appreciate good communication so that I can give the best service.
About: With over 7 years of hands-on dog sitting experience, I’ve cared for pups/kitties of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I’ve handled everything from daily walks and medication administration (pills only) to overnight stays and longer holiday care. I prioritize creating a safe, loving environment that keeps their regular routine. Whether it’s fetch in the park or quiet cuddle time, I tailor care to each dog’s unique needs and personality. My schedule is open and flexible, which means I’m available for extended bookings, weekend getaways, *most* holidays, and all the in between’s. I’m here when you need me, morning, afternoon, or evening—no rigid time blocks, just dependable availability. Whether you’re heading out of town or working long hours, I’m ready to jump in with consistent, loving care. Pet parents can count on me to adapt to their routines and provide reliable service every day of the week. Safety and trust are the foundation of everything I do. I never leave dogs unsupervised in unsafe areas, and I only use the approved pups gear. I stay in close contact with pet parents, offering regular updates, pictures, and messages (if asked for) for peace of mind. With seven years of trusted pet care under my belt and a strong sense of responsibility, I treat your dog as if they were my own. Your pet’s wellbeing is always my top priority.
About: I have ample space in my home to care and love your pet. As a dog owner myself, I have the necessary skills to care for your dog and give them the exercise and mental stimulation they need daily. My husband and I also foster dogs so we am very capable to handle new dogs in our home. He also works from home so your dog will always have someone around to care for them. I’d love to meet and have fun with your pet! I am currently working full-time but have ample time to play with your babies. I have no children except for my dog, so your pet will get a lot of attention. I am available for boarding anytime and walks or playtime after 3 pm. I have a fully fenced yard to keep your pups safe. And inside, i have plenty of room to play and I have crating options if needed or wanted.
“We are first time dog owners and we both work night shift so we were very nervous about how we would make over night work. Melissa was able to stay over while we worked. She sent us so many updates and photos that it eased our anxiety. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Daniel was a reliable dogsitter at our house. Our dog loved him, as evident with Cali sitting at his feet even when we returned. Daniel did give Cali additional outdoor time, which was a treat. Daniel also went beyond the call to receive the shipment of our new lawnmower and see that it was sheltered in our garage.”
About: Hello! I study Vet Science at UW Madison and have extensive experience in both dog and cat humane societies, kennels, and have had dogs my whole life and cats for 3 years now. My dogs Jojo and Jagger are very energetic, and Indy is my tortie and the love of my life :) I tend to work weekends at my families business but can change my availability based on how familiar I get with your pet(s). I am always available to talk and will respond quickly to messages! I love to engage with pets and learn their body language, I will always have a ball or stick while walking your dog, but also understand when they need a break. My priority is making them feel as at home as possible, while earning experience in the field I love. I have patience for both cats and dogs, and will watch carefully to not over pet, play, or initiate with shy animals. Tell me more about your pet to help me help them be as comfortable as they can be!
“I highly recommend Josh to stay with your pet! He stayed with my dog Diesel over this past weekend at my house. When I returned home Diesel was very happy and my home was in perfect shape. While I was away Josh sent several pictures of them taking walks together and playing together. They had lots of fun and Josh really focused on Diesel. I will definitely book him again when I need to be out of town.”
About: I’ve taken care of families pets since I was 14 years old. As well, I have raised 3 puppies and just finished training my friends new 8 week year old puppy that’s growing up to be a great boy! I care for dogs and all pets and their lifestyle and overall health emotionally and physically to make sure they get all their needs. I am currently a college senior student working a front desk job at a salon and I’m looking forward to taking care of some pups. 😊 I am currently home from a college winter break yet I reside in Chicago. I am familiar with the area and have a huge love for animals and their care. I am currently working part time as a front desk receptionist and a salon in downtown Chicago and I am looking for something else to do that I enjoy on my free time. I want to prioritize a pets needs and wants, taking instructions by a pets owner comes first since they know their pet best! Taking insight on the pets breed and making sure you keep them on a consistent schedule and maintaining it is super important for a dogs happiness. Keeping them entertained and safe is key! I would make sure I treat all pets like they are my own.

Racine pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were extremely pleased with the diligent care Monica provided for our 4-year-old Miniature Australian Shepherd. She did an excellent job not only watching Jaco, but also taking great care of our home while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands. We would absolutely use Monica again and highly recommend her to others.
Andrea was absolutely incredible! She stayed at my house with my dog, Leo, and I could not have asked for a better sitter. From the very beginning she was communicative, reliable, and so easy to work with. I got regular updates and photos, and Leo looked completely happy and spoiled the entire time. It’s such a rare comfort to leave your home and your dog in someone’s hands and feel zero stress — but that’s exactly what Andrea provides. She treated my house with respect, left everything spotless, and took care of Leo like he was her own. I came home to a happy dog, a tidy home, and total peace of mind. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, truly exceptional, and also just a cool girl, Andrea is the one!
Nicole did a great job taking care of our pack. She was very communicative with us. She sent pictures along the way and made sure all of our dogs were well taken care of.
