“Emily was fantastic! Our dog loved every minute of being there. She was very communicative during our week long vacation and made sure to send lots of photos of our Pen getting loved on. We will absolutely be booking with Emily for any future trips or just for a small pooch vaca for our dog. We highly recommend!”
“Bobbi sent consistent and adorable updates to let me know my girl was settling in and enjoying having a furry friend (Bobbi’s little pug) around. I felt comfortable leaving my girl with Bobbi and her sweet family!”
“I want to thank Bobbie and Clark for their excellent care of Leo. They helped us out on very short notice due to a prior cancellation. Daily communication with pictures. I know Leo was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Bobble and Clark.”
“Kristina took great care of my puppy, sent lots of photos and treated her like her own! After 4 nights my young one came back even better behaved which was a blessing.”
“Chelsea and her family took such great care of our two pups while we were away! We enjoyed the daily updates and pictures she sent us. We would definitely book again with Chelsea!”
“Korri was fantastic!!! Would absolutely contact her again if we needed someone to take care of our dog. We had a wedding out of town and Korri sent so many updates which was amazing to feel like our gal was being taken care of well. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone!!!”
“Jeffrey was amazing with communication from the start of booking all the way to the end of the trip. He truly eased my fears of leaving my dog for the first time ever. He took her on walks and just gave her so much love and TLC. He gave daily updates on my dog and even sent pictures. Eased my heart for sure. He was truly amazing with my dog Belle and I will definitely be using him in the future.”
“Ram and Anu were fantastic! They sent videos, photos and even brought Nikky to visit me at the hospital for a couple hours. They treated Nikky like their own... plenty of love and interaction and fun. I will definitely book them again. I recommend them to anyone who truly loves their pet. I loved the photos of their daughter reading to Nikky and played with him. Their Chocolate Lab was a great buddy for Nikky. They played very well together.”
“Melissa did an amazing job! I would recommend her to anyone! My pup was well taken care of and loved the whole time she was there! Our dog has never been watched out of her home so for her first time ever going somewhere like this Melissa made my dog feel right at home and part of the family!”
About: I am a Neenah Native who has been providing pet care for 25 years. This includes young puppies & helping them learn their manners to the elderly/special needs & providing them medication (including insulin), special meals, cozy beds & extra TLC. My cat experience includes kittens, elderly, special needs, extremely shy, to extremely social. Each cat is unique. I take the time to make sure to treat them that way. I also have experience caring for rabbits, fish, guinea pigs, lizards, etc. When I come to your house - I follow the rules you set for me to the T. I want the visit to be as stress-free as possible & keeping a consistent routine is part of that. If your dog(s) stay with me - they will be a part of my family. A secured, fenced in yard for safety & fun. A nice laidback home where they can go on the furniture & snuggle in bed w/my pets & me at night. The bigger cuddle puddle the better! Pet care fits into my daily routine as it is MY life & business. I care for my well-socialized rescue pets from morning to night as they are NOT just my pets - they are my FAMILY! This allows us to work together to find times that work best for your fur babies! When caring for dogs in my home, I only care for one family's dog(s) in my home at a time. FREE CONSULT ahead of time to make sure it is a good match for everyone. This lessens the stress on the visiting dog(s). Multiple family dogs in one home CAN be overwhelming for SOME dogs. (NOT ALL) This is also nice for my pets to only have one family's dog(s) at a time. We like to keep things calm, peaceful & relaxing while still having fun! Dogs are allowed on the furniture if the parents allow it. If they do not - I will not. I do not want to start any bad habits. LOL Dogs can sleep in bed with the dog/cats/me. I have a very secure fenced in backyard that I check on a regular basis to make sure there is not even the tiniest gap. Being a former caseworker for Lost Dogs of WI - I know how important this is. But even with a fenced in yard - the dogs are watched. Plus - you'll get lots of pics/texts of your dog(s) while you are away! I believe in open & transparent communication. When I do drop in visits in a clients home - I have the client go over EVERYTHING during a FREE consultation beforehand where I take very detailed notes!! It is extremely important the cats/dogs routine stays the same as possible. This lessens their stress when their owner/family is gone. I only go in the areas of the house where the pets will be. I also leave a journal to keep detailed notes. I also send daily pictures/texts as well. I am very security conscience & will bring in mail, double check the door is locked, etc.
“Kiana was great with Simmba! She sent pictures, and kept us updated on his wellbeing. She was always very flexible when we needed to change our dates. She’s reliable and we would definitely use her again!”
“Brooke and her husband were absolutely amazing! Dozer was so well taken care of while we were away. Brooke is so knowledgeable about pet care as well, which left us feeling at ease knowing our baby would be properly cared for. Also, pictures and videos, and updates from Brooke daily were an added bonus. Great yard and pet area for him to feel comfortable and “at home”. Thank you so so much! 💕”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was ten. From a litter of beagle puppies to King & Queen to Sandy our cocker spaniel and Pepper the Schnauzer. In married life I had golden retriever and multiple Tri Shelties. Also have the pleasure of grand dogs to care for occasionally. My last Sheltie Cooper passed 10/2020 and I would love to care for your precious fur baby. I am an active retired female with lots of time & energy to care for your loved one. My hours are very open and I can be flexible with schedule I have a nice backyard with long leads/leash to connect pet indoors before letting out. Also very nice trail walks in area. I enjoy keeping your dog in good shape with a little exercise and a calm relaxing home to come back to
“Kimmy was great. I just wish they were a little closer. Dexter loves going over here there’s lots of room for him to run and people to play with and I love all the pictures I get while he’s here”
“Daniel was fantastic! We choose him to dog sit out German shepherd for her first over night not at home. We did a meet and greet first and then she stayed over for the weekend. He made me feel very comfortable and even sent me some photos of my pup! Timber really seemed to enjoy her stay and the adventures (walks) they went on! We will definitely keep Daniel in mind when we need another dog sitter.”
“Cass was very good to our fur babies! I have two poodles, one of which is two years old and one that is almost a year old so still a puppy, and she did absolutely wonderful with them. Between the several updates and many pictures, I was put at ease knowing that my babies were being well taken care of. With lots of play, love, and walks they were happily exhausted by the time we picked them up from a fun filled weekend. I would recommend her if you want someone diligent and attentive to your dogs while also giving them many opportunities to have fun and enjoy the outdoors.”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

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 Saint John home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Saint John.
Tip: 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 Saint John 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
