Pet Sitting Rufus King

“Ilene was great! We have a foster cat in quarantine with an infection and wanted someone to spend time with him while we were out of town. Ilene was able to give him some quality time and attention, he was a happy camper. The updates we got were good and the photos were perfect. Thank you!”

About: ** Discounted rates as I built up reviews on this app!** I’m a true animal lover ready to give your pets the next best thing to your own love! My experience spans singlehandedly training a puppy during my teen years, caring for a 3 legged rescue, and my recent every day and extended dog sitting for my roommate’s 80 lb reactive Pitbull, I’m ready and happy to handle just about anything with compassion, care, and dedication! As a retail worker, my schedule stays flexible, so I’m a perfect candidate for both midday visits or long term stays. Whether your dog needs a multi mile walk or a quick potty break, I’m ready to make it work! As someone who also has childcare experience, I know how to be an unobtrusive, responsible, and respectful guest in your home. I value strong communication and can easily adjust my typical care style to your preferences and boundaries. I’ll be sure to always wipe those paws before letting your pup loose :)

“Melissa was very attentive to my cats while I was away for a week! She administered their medication, played with them, and made sure they were happy as can be :) Highly recommend!”

“Our kitty was in great spirits when we returned. It was evident that she had been well taken care of. Jackie was amenable to our requests and provided helpful and frequent updates. Thank you, Jackie!”

About: Hi, my name is Missy I've had a great deal of experience with all different kinds of animals. I worked with a local vet helping place feral cats in homes and providing excellent care for them. Including helping pregnant feral cats with delivery and maternal care. I have volunteered at the Wisconsin Humane Society. There I worked in the Wildlife rehabilitation center as well as the dog care center. I currently own dogs and cats of my own and I recognize how important it is to provide excellent care as well as exercise and playtime. I have past experience in boarding and dog sitting in my home which has always been a great experience. Can't wait to give the love and care your dog(s) deserve!

“Excellent job taking care of my two pups”

“Jessica is very friendly and was great with my cat, Mer. She’s very communicative, provides great updates, and sends lots of cute photos each time she checks out of her visits. I felt super comfortable with Jessica being in my house while I was away and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! 🤩”

“Travis will treat your fur babies as if they were his own! This was our first experience using Rover & we were very satisfied. I would wholeheartedly recommend Travis to take care of your pets while you are away. We had 100% peace of mind & no worries or concerns. We will use him again!!!”

“Jessica was great with my German shepherd, my dog has been going through some health issues and when I went out of town for 4 days I needed someone to come take care of her 3 times a day and mix up her special food, take her for walks and monitor her potty breaks. Jessica was also super flexible with the timing of her visits and made this potentially stressful time super easy for me and my dog. 5 stars. Would reccomend her to anyone.”

About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.

“This was our first booking with Carrianne. She was great! She asked good clarifying questions during our meet and greet to make sure she fully understood how to care for our kitty, and was reliable and timely during the booking. We fully trusted her to take care of our anxious cat. We would love to book with her in the future!”

Jessica C.

“Best sitter ever! Very grateful for all of Hope’s help feeding & playing with my kitty while I’m away. Hope leaves very detailed notes and many photos, which is very helpful knowing my pet is in good hands. My kitty loves Hope and will cuddle with her when she comes to visit, which is a sign of a loving sitter. 1000% rebooking & recommend Hope to all!!”

“Angela was great. The animals loved her and she left good descriptions and pictures with every visit.”

About: I am a former dog handler that worked at a doggy day care where I cared for multiple dogs daily, managing different temperaments and energy levels. I’m experienced in supervising play, maintaining safety, and keeping dogs calm, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve also owned dogs and cats in my lifetime as well! Genuinely an animal lover. I’m available for morning and evening visits on weekdays, and I have open availability on weekends. I offer flexible scheduling for walks, drop ins, and pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, follow routines closely, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

“So caring... Thanks Adri!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. Every time I get the opportunity to watch a fur baby, I treat them like they are my own. I have done some dog/puppy training as well, and I've always gotten great reviews on what one's pet can do by the time they go home (If interested) My schedlue is fairly flexible. I am able to move clients around depending on your availability. This is my full-time gig as of now, so I take lots of pride in the care I provide to your pet(s). I have currently moved to Riverwest, this came with a fenced in backyard (yayyyy)! I live close to lots of parks, dog park (Rover west), and trails.

“Miranda was prompt, communicative, and reliable! She clearly loves dogs! We will definitely request her services again.”

About: I don't actually call myself that, that's what my friends say I am. I've literally never met a dog I didn't get on famously with. I respect the fact that they are individuals with their own needs. I don't mean to sound too self assured with the title, but I earned it from friends. Whether it's running on the Lake Michigan shore or just finding a nice sunny spot to sit for a while, your pup is going to have a fulfilling day. I have huge flexibility so no worries! A last minute trip or planned weeks in advance, we can work something out. I'm here for you! Even same day! I strive for communication as much as possible between animal and human. If they're not feeling like socializing, I don't force anything. Everyone has different needs. My experience in a dog daycare really helped me read and understand dog body language to head off any issues that may arise when you're watching 12 dogs.
