“Kim is amazing! We always have her watch our dachshund Wendi whenever we go out of town or have an event to go to. She is so responsive and such a kind person! When she’s watching our dog, we know our dog is in great hands.Our dog always comes home happy and sleepy after hanging out with Kim and her dog! Thank you!!”

About: I have over 25 years of experience caring for dogs of every kind. I began helping neighbors and family with their pets at age 10, and now at 36, that passion is stronger than ever. I currently own a Rhodesian Ridgeback, which has given me great experience with large, high energy breeds. However, I truly enjoy working with dogs of all sizes. Whether you have a tiny puppy or a large senior dog, I provide patient and reliable care. I am committed to keeping your pet happy and well exercised during our time together. I work remotely from home full time Monday through Friday. This means I am physically present all day to provide your dog with constant companionship and attention. Because my work schedule is very flexible, I can take dogs out for potty breaks, backyard play, or neighborhood walks whenever they need them. Your pet will never be left alone for long stretches and will enjoy a consistent routine. Safety is my top priority. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can run and play securely. I currently have a friendly Rhodesian Ridgeback who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I am very careful about slow introductions to ensure everyone is comfortable. Since I work from home, I am able to constantly monitor all interactions and ensure a peaceful environment. My home is a welcoming space for dogs of all sizes. I am also experienced with crate training if that is part of your pet's normal routine.

“MJ was amazing with Bobo and warmed up to him in such a short amount of time (usually it takes a while and even days!) He knew how to read Bobo and knew exactly how to interact with him. Definitely will be seeking out MJ to look after Bobo many more times.”

“My dog Simba loves going to Kristine’s house for boarding and daycare! It makes me feel at ease that he is having fun, getting exercise, and not anxious there despite his high separation anxiety. Kristine sends pictures and loves all dogs like her own. Simba even knows which house is hers and sprints from the car to her front door! Would highly recommend!!!!”

“Genesis took amazing care of my dog Lula! I love that she took so many cute photos and videos and kept me updated throughout the entire day. Lula had a great time and felt so comfortable with her. I will definitely book with Genesis again! :)”

“My dog Nala loves going to daycare with Dane. He is very flexible and does a great job taking care of Nala. She also really enjoys hanging out with his dogs and having a yard to hang out in for the day. Would recommend Dane 10/10.”

“Our 1-year old chocolate lab Charlie LOVED hanging at Auria’s home! She sent me a pic during the day (so nice ??) & when I picked him up he was in the happiest mood! Will definitely use her again!”

“Yolanda and her family have been so great to work with so far! Yolanda is very responsive, flexible, & respectful of your pet’s needs/requests/concerns. I will be utilizing her services again 🙂”

“George was so happy when I picked him up! He fell asleep as soon as he got home and now is dreaming about his super long walk with Megan. I can tell that George had a wonderful day and Megan went the extra mile to make him eat his food even though he’s been fuzzy because of medication. I will definitely bring George back next time he needs a sitter.”

“Monica was great! She sent me updates and took very good care of my dog :) my dog is a nervous and anxious girl, but I felt comfortable leaving her with Monica! I will be using her regularly!”

About: I’m a true animal lover. If it has paws, scales, fins, or whiskers, I’m already invested. I’ve cared for and fostered all kinds of pets over the years—dogs, cats, aquatic babies, reptiles, and the tiniest furry friends like bunnies and hamsters—so I’m comfortable across the board. To me, pets aren’t “just pets”…they’re family. And I treat them like it. That means real attention, quality care, playtime, and yes—plenty of cuddles (on their terms, of course). My approach is calm, patient, and gentle. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and respect their boundaries so they always feel safe, understood, and comfortable. At home, I’ve got my own little zoo—2 sweet cats, a bearded dragon, 2 geckos, 4 snakes, and an adorable mouse—so trust me, I’m no stranger to unique personalities and specialized care. I would love to care for your pet when you need a break, go on vacation or when you make plans. You can be assured that your pet is in good hands. To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. 📍 Located in the Milwaukee – Capitol Heights area 🌻 I work from home so I’ll always have time to play, feed and love on your pet babies. I’m always flexible with their needs (bathroom breaks, medication, shyness) to make sure they are always comfortable. If my schedule or availability changes, I always send out updates to my calendar right away. ❤️ To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space for pets to roam, play and toilet if needed. I have a collection of toys and stimulating goodies that they may find of interest. Pets are always welcome to bring their own items. My 2 lovely cats are usually shy and more of the watching type, so they won’t bother your pets but will surely admire them from their cat trees. All activities and toileting are supervised. There is no smoking of any kind in my home or pet areas. There are some pictures of our living space in the photo collection on my Rover profile.

About: All my life animals have been a part of my life! I have always had a dog or cat in the home growing up. I just love spending time with my dog, taking him on walks, cuddling with him, and playing fetch with him! Same with my kitten she can be the biggest cuddle bug, or Ms. Independent (I love her either way)! I am currently exploring pet care as a full time job! I have open/available for all your pet care needs day/evening care, boarding, walks! Let’s communicate, I’d love to help you with your pet care needs Currently I have 1 dog a 13 year old chihuahua, and a 6 month old kitten. scrappy and Anastasia are very friendly, and get along great with other animals! We take walks daily, and visit a local dog park 2 to 3 times a week.

“Mika was great! I'm so glad we found them! Very responsive and responsible! I've found it tough to truly find good, communicative, and affordable sitters on Rover. Not anymore! They took the dogs on multiple walks, to the tennis courts, and to get pup cups at the coffee shop. THANKS SO MUCH!”

“Emma and Tom are very trustworthy when it comes to caring for our dog. They communicate well and are great with providing updates and photos!”

“Veronica went above and beyond taking care of our dog today, and we’re so grateful for all of the help and care provided. I anticipated our dog being anxious to get home, but she was indifferent and very happy overall, which makes me feel like our dog is in the best hands possible!”

About: Hi there! We are lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience and two sweet pit bulls of my own. Our home is shared with my playful and loving 3-year-old boy and my silly, affectionate 1-year-old girl, who both love making new friends. We've spent many years in responsible dog breeding, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, socialization, and individual needs. Whether your pup is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, We are confident and comfortable caring for all personalities, ages, and breeds. With me, your pets will be treated like part of the family — plenty of love, attention, structure, and fun. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive environment where every dog feels at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! --- If you want, I can also tailor it to a specific service (boarding, drop-ins, walks, etc.) or adjust the tone to be more professional, playful, or concise. I offer flexible scheduling for pet boarding thanks to my role with a property management company, which allows me to be home often and adjust my availability as needed. This flexibility helps me give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout their stay. For everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly require all pets to have their own crate during their stay. Crates provide a secure, familiar space for your dog to rest and relax, especially during downtime or when we briefly step out. Their safety and well-being are always our top priority. Also provide your pet with their favorite food/treats for their stay. We are also able to provide that for an additional fee.

“Jan was great! My pup's tail was wagging as we approached her house by the second day! :) My pup warmed up to her quickly and had a great stay.”
