“Yolanda and her family were amazing! From the day I left my girls behind, I was confident they were in good hands. Yolanda was very responsive to messages and even sent photos of how my girls were adjusting. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for the peace of mind you gave me!”
“Ashley was an amazing dog sitter for our pup! She communicated throughout the stay, sent pictures, and made him feel at home! I highly recommend! Thank you for the experience!”
“Amazing. Communicated daily and sent lots of pictures. She made adjustments to help my dog eat while being in a new environment. Will definitely be rebooking.”
“Sherry was so fantastic!! She took such great care of our girl Mona for the weekend, and provided lots of photos and updates. :) we would absolutely book with her again.”
“According to our dog sitter review specialist, our little Chihuahua, Cosita... she had a wonderful overnight visit with Auria and is looking forward to her return visit in a few days. She was very pleased with the care she received and enjoyed meeting and interfacing with the other dogs. We were also impressed with the great care that Cosita received and have a few more visits scheduled.”
“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”
“Sarah and her family took great care of Goose while we were gone for a quick overnight! Goose got lots of walks around the neighborhood and played well with their kids, both in the yard and outside. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future!”
“Doreen watches our dog every vacation we’re on. She sends us updates everyday and we look forward to our daily picture she sends us. Very dependable and a great communicator. Thanks.”
“I’m still fairly new to Rover, and it was truly a pleasure having Karlee watch my Shorkie while I was out of town. She sent updates whenever I requested them and gave my dog a new opportunity to be around a cat, which I really appreciated. What stood out most was how well Karlee was able to understand my dog’s personality. It showed that she genuinely took the time to get to know her and accommodate her individual needs. I truly appreciate the care she provided, would absolutely recommend her, and would definitely request her again!”
“This was our first time leaving our Maisy girl with a sitter since we adopted her and we felt very secure leaving her with Cindy. We didn’t stress at all and received great communication.”
“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!”
“Evita was so amazing and the dogs and I loved her! I couldn’t have imagined a better person to love and take care of my dogs for over a week! She shared loving pictures and videos of their time together multiple times a day! They came home so content and happy 😃 Thank you Evita so very much ❤️”
“Ester was great with Zeus. Zeus is very energetic, and had a wonderful time. I was sent videos of him during his stay. Will definitely book with Ester again.”
“Genevieve is an absolute DREAM dogsitter. We booked her to watch our older dog at her place while we traveled. She was perfectly suited for this type of booking on all levels. Super communicative, responsive, & kind. She kept our pup active and took her on some fun excursions! 10/10!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs all my life. I grew up showing dogs, both my family dogs and others. My family back home currently has three dogs, each a different size, from small to large, so I have experience with all sizes. I live in a great area for casual walks, with a dog park and a small lake nearby for the pups that are allowed to swim! I work full-time, in-office Monday through Thursday and from home on Fridays. I take daily walks around my neighborhood in the evening. On weekends, I love exploring a new coffee shop and walking trail or just a longer walk in the areas near me. I’d love to bring your pet along with me on walks and for downtime on the couch afterwards! I don’t have a fenced yard, but there is a dog park where your pup can run freely. Outside of that, we have open grass areas where we can walk. All pups are welcome on furniture at my place and are welcome to enjoy the space as their own. I do have a patio that they’re more than welcome to sit outside and enjoy with me.
“Angela was a fabulous sitter - we will definitely leave our dogs in her care in the future. She was eager to meet them in advance of watching them and flexible with that timing. She was also willing to work around some logistics with a family member dropping off our dogs at her place, which was very helpful. While we were gone, she was communicative and sent photos. We appreciated receiving her updates. We were were very pleased to come home to happy dogs. I highly recommend Angela!”
“Mitchell did a great job with my dog Cody! He sent lots of photos and updates. I know Cody had a great time because he came back very tired! I highly recommend Mitchell and I definitely will be booking with him again in the future!”

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.
