“This was our first time using Rover and having someone unknown let out our doggo. Rebecca did a wonderful job and even offered to go above and beyond. We are so grateful for her help and loving care! We definitely will keep her in mind for next time!”


“Jayde did drop-in-visits for our cat for the first time when we were gone on vacation this month. We highly recommend her and plan to see if she is available whenever we are away in the future. She sent us very detailed Rover cards with pictures each day (and even some videos)! Our cat takes a little while to warm up, but then was greeting her at the door, sitting by her and purring after that. We felt so good knowing that she was in very good hands while we were away!”


“Wonderful all around! Will definitely use again! So kind and sweet to my babies! Was on time and had amazing communication with me! My babies were happy and well looked after! Pictures were sent every visit and made me feel at ease seeing them have fun!!!”


About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have even helped friends and family with their dogs. I even got help my best friend get her dog dressed up for her wedding! I currently have flexible work from home hours where I can come play with the fluff balls when needed. I am only unavailable Tuesday and Wednesday. I live in an apartment but on the edge of town and have a huge area to run the dogs when they need some exercise.

About: Hi! I'm Brook Gassman, a 24-year-old school psychologist at JYMS in Baraboo, and I'm passionate about providing loving care for all kinds of pets. Growing up with both cats and dogs, I developed a deep love for animals of all shapes and sizes. Currently, I own a sweet cat named Elby and am in the process of finding the perfect dog to add to my family. I've had years of experience caring for pets, from playful puppies to calm senior cats. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship, I’m dedicated to ensuring your pet receives the best care possible. I understand the importance of trust and routine for animals, and I’m committed to giving each pet the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I look forward to helping you take care of your furry friends! I work full-time at the middle school in Baraboo, so my regular availability is between 6-7 AM and 3-9 PM. However, I'm flexible and can arrange to stop by outside of these hours if needed. I will care for your pet in your home according to your specific preferences and routine. My goal is to ensure a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet, and I’ll work closely with you to meet all of your pet’s needs.

About: Conveniently located 7 minutes from Wisconsin Dells (the map is not accurate), in the country on a few acres with a large fenced in area! I love taking care of pups in my home just as one of my own furry family members. I have a degree as a vet tech and in canine obedience and behavior! I have been boarding dogs in my home and pet sitting for over 25 years. I also ran a wonderful dog rescue for almost ten years giving me a wide variety of experience with many situations and behaviors. I love being able to help people with knowing their pup is in the best of care so you can enjoy your Vacation or not add more stress in a time of sorrow or whatever the situation may be that brings you to needing dog sitting! I also own my own business doing interior painting so have a very flexible schedule. I love being able to be flexible for you and for your pup I have a fenced in yard, can separate and/crate dogs as needed. I do offer for them to sleep with me at night and be spoiled. I will take them for rides, hikes, to the store all if applicable!

About: I see dogs as one of the great additions to a family, in fact, I have always had a dog in my household. Neighbors have relied on me to do drop in potty breaks as well as over night pet sitting. I am able to take care of dogs of all age and size. Feel free to reach out to me to double check my availability! I currently work part time, therefore I am able to fit pet care into my schedule as needed. I am available week days and weekends. I live on 5 acres and own two friendly dogs, a 1 year old Golden Retriever and a 9 year old Labrador. I am diligent about making sure animals stay safe while having a little bit of fun.

About: Hello my name is Candida (Candi). I have worked in and with Rescues and Humane Societies throughout the State of WI over the last 30 years. I currently have 4 dogs and live out in the country with lots of room to run. I am very familiar with different behavior issues as well as how to work with your pets to get through those issues. This experience comes from fostering many high risk animals over the years. Your pet will be treated the same in my home as he/ she is treated in your home. If they go on your furniture, they are welcome on mine, etc. I am always willing to go the extra mile, if your pet needs a bath or a nail clip, I am happy to do that. I have experience with training, CPR, Giving Meds both by mouth and shot. Some of my friends lovingly call me the crazy dog lady because of my deep love for dogs, they have feelings and emotions just as we do and I always take that into consideration when caring for them. Given the opportunity I will show you that you can trust me to care for your baby while you are away just as you care for them when you are home. I currently work part time at my own small business so my schedule is super flexible and can be easily worked around your needs. This gives me the flexibility to give your pet all the time and attention they need while in my care. I have four dogs that are the sweetest babies. They get along great with all animals as well as kids. I do not have a fenced yard as we live on 80 acres out in the country, but I do have a portable temporary fencing that can be put up for outside time. We have a large area in the lower level of our home for inside play time. As I said earlier, when your pet is in my home, they will be treated just as they are when they are with you. I know how important routine is to their little minds. If you feed at a certain time, I will follow that routine. I know mine have a very set routine, they surely know when dinner time is. :o)

“Abby came to our home each day while we were on vacation to attend to our elderly cat and everything went smoothly! She was trustworthy and thorough - sent notes and pictures and we never worried about anything while we were gone. We would definitely book her again - we trusted her and appreciated all she did!”


About: Hi there! Animals have been a part of my life for over 10 years. I grew up on a farm surrounded by all kinds of animals, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care from a young age. Over the years, I’ve continued to build on that experience in both personal and professional settings. I had the amazing opportunity to travel the country as a professional dog handler, showing dogs in AKC conformation shows. This gave me hands-on experience with many breeds and temperaments, and deepened my understanding of proper grooming, handling, and breed-specific care. I also spent five years working as a veterinary assistant, where I gained valuable experience with medical care, medications, and special-needs animals. If your pet requires medication or extra attention, you can rest assured they’ll be in capable and caring hands. In addition to pet sitting and walks, I’m happy to offer nail trims and other basic grooming care. I share my home with a sweet, neutered 15-year-old dachshund who’s incredibly friendly. While he doesn’t walk much these days, he enjoys riding along in his stroller and keeping me company. Today, I work in the human medical field, but animals will always hold a special place in my heart. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and becoming someone you can trust with their care. I currently work Monday-Thursday, which allows me to take pets Fri-Saturday, but I can be flexible with evening check-ins or walks during the regular work week as well. In your home, I respect your pet’s routine and your space. I’ll follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax while you're away. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, loving environment. I keep things clean, safe, and low-stress, with plenty of cozy spots to rest and room for play. My senior dachshund is friendly and relaxed, and usually sleeping.

About: Hi, I’m Chris! I’ve always loved being around dogs and have spent years caring for pups of all kinds — from high-energy adventurers to laid-back couch companions. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog, and I’m here to give them the attention, care, and exercise they need while you’re away. Whether your dog loves a long, brisk walk or prefers a slower, sniff-filled stroll, I’ll adjust to whatever makes them happiest. Their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own. Regular walks do more than just burn energy — they help dogs stay healthy, ease anxiety, and keep them mentally sharp. Plus, it gives them a chance to explore, smell new things, and just enjoy being a dog. I’d love to meet you and your pup and be a part of their daily routine! I do a lot of running and trail running so if you have an active dog, we could have a lot of fun. But I also enjoy slow paced walks and just enjoying the environment. As I have had inside/outside dogs most of my life, I will always contain pets into the areas that are available for them but not a caged containment unless needed.
