“Yolanda and Rashad’s years of experience caring for all kinds of dogs showed in their confidence taking in our sweet, old pup, and managing him among many others. Their kind, calm demeanor also made him feel comfortable and welcome in their home. Best of all, he returned to us, healthy and well.”
“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Ashley and her family. Penelope has stayed with Ashley before, and it is so clear how much they genuinely adore her — and the feeling is absolutely mutual! Ashley is incredible about sending me photos and little updates throughout the day, so I always know how Penelope is doing and what kind of fun she is getting into. There is such a difference between knowing your pet is being well cared for and knowing she is being genuinely loved while you’re away, and with Ashley, I never have to worry for a second. Her entire family is so incredibly sweet to Penelope, and she is clearly completely comfortable and happy in their home. When I picked her up today, she genuinely seemed like she would have preferred to stay with them rather than come home with me — which I suppose is the highest praise a pet sitter can receive 😂 Ashley has become someone I completely trust with Penelope, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be back!”
“Andrew and his family treated my Oscar as part of their family. He was in constant communication with me while I was away in Italy for almost 3 weeks. Andrew is very kind and very easy/flexible. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy person to watch their furbabies! Thank you Andrew!”
“Gabriel was great, my poppy had a great time with him and his puppy Mel. Lots of playing and wrestling, and Gabriel was great about sending pictures/updates all weekend. 5 Stars!”
“Our first Rover experience was great with Jan. Our puppy is 4 months old and Jan took great care of him while we were out of town. Daily updates and photos were much appreciated. Caring for a puppy must be challenging but Jan made it seem no trouble at all.”
“Lisa is one of the kindest persons I’ve met and my dog felt at home at all times because of that. She was amazing and my dog was comfortable around her since the first minute. Lisa provided a loving and caring home for my dog while I was away. She kept me updated on how things were going once each couple of days and at my return, I found that my dog was having an amazing time. I would leave my dog again a thousand times with her!”
“My anxious dog settled in beautifully with Frank and his two little dogs, allowing me to enjoy a worry-free two week vacation. Frank sent updates with photos which greatly reassured me that all was going even better than hoped. Honey clearly enjoyed a relaxing time with Frank in his home and made new friends with his dogs. I highly recommend Frank and would not hesitate to rebook with him!”
“Kayla was awesome ! Her communication was out of this world . My babygirl 🐶 really enjoyed her staycation . I’ll definitely book again — and if you’re considering booking with Kayla don’t hesitate!”
“Angie was amazing! My dog had so much fun that I’m pretty sure he didn’t want to come home! She sent great updates and pictures and treated Cosmo like her own. I definitely will be using her again!!”
“Cortney was really accommodating and great with Bo. Also prompt in communicating and shared pictures and a video of Bo during his stay. Her dog was a great playmate for Bo and he had a blast. I would recommend Coutney!”
“Evita was great with Tucker, this was our first time using a dog sitter for an overnight stay and she eased all my concerns and provided great updates. We will definitely be booking with Evita again in the future. THANK YOU”
“Alisha was great with my two pugs last weekend. She was very understanding of my quirky older dog's needs. Her boxer is so friendly and a wonderful playmate or pillow for doggy guests!”
“Gianina took really good care of our dog Mia during our week long vacation. Mia fit right in with her dogs golden retrievers and her 2 children loved her too. She kept us informed with daily postings of her which we looked forward too. Thank you for taking such good care of our dog. I would highly recommend her.”
“Ashlee took great care of my 1-year old pup. He had fun playing with her dogs, and she was willing to take him at the last minute. She is very friendly and responsive.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and now have a 2 year old golden retriever that I raised as a puppy. I’ve invested a lot of time learning how to train dogs effectively so that I can best care for my own and others dogs. I work from home full time, so would love to provide day care for dogs that get along well with others and that would benefit from individual attention and another dog playmate. **I just started on Rover so that’s why I have only a few reviews. Happy to talk through any questions to make sure you feel great about your pet’s care!** I work fully from home so am available for day care during the work week and some weekends. I can also do dog walks or drop ins during the work week. I’m open to overnights as well after first successfully testing out day care. I have a back yard (not fenced, but I have long leads if needed) and a large unfinished basement for play. I have a 2 year old golden retriever that is very friendly and great with all dogs.
“She sent us so many updates throughout the weekend which is so so helpful since we don’t leave our girl with strangers often. She came back tired and content. She will be an easy choice if we ever need a sitter again.”
About: I have had dogs of my own since I was 9 years old. I LOVE dogs--especially small ones! I have trained all of my dogs. I board friends' dogs in my home all the time, and am now excited to move into boarding strangers' dogs here on Rover! I work full-time, a mix of in-office and at home. I work from home on Thursdays and have flexibility on Fridays, so it works best for me to be able to provide boarding on long weekends (Thursday-Sunday). I am happy to provide your pet with seamless care and match what they are used to in your home. I have a large yard and a quiet neighborhood. My home has many rooms and I have some gates so that I can separate pets if needed. I also have a puppy play pen for smaller/younger pups who need their own space.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - River Hills
Katie and her lovely family took fabulous care of our Cavi, Marley while we were out of town for 10 days. He obviously got lots of snuggles, attention and playtime wile in their care. We’re just glad Marley didn’t want to stay with them rather than us when we returned 🤞! We will definitely be calling them for future boarding needs!

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 River Hills home-away-from-home, 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 River Hills.
<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 River Hills 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 , 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 .
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.
