“⸻ 5-Star Review for Lisa – Our Amazing Dog Sitter! We recently used a pet-sitting service for the very first time while we were away on vacation, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience—thanks to Lisa! She watched our dogs, Sasha and Malia, from Friday through Sunday afternoon, and she went above and beyond in every way. Lisa not only fed and walked them on schedule, but she also took the initiative to clean their food bowls after each meal and took care of several thoughtful details we didn’t even think to ask for. It was clear from the moment we returned that Sasha and Malia felt loved and cared for—they absolutely adored her! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they had someone kind and attentive to talk to and keep them company while we were away. This was our first time using this service, and because of Lisa, it certainly won’t be our last. We’re looking forward to booking with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Lisa, for your care, your attention to detail, and the genuine love you showed our girls. We truly appreciate all of your hard work!”
“I cannot say enough how happy we are with Katie! I have three cats; one of which is undergoing cancer treatment requiring her to give him medication. I was so incredibly nervous about leaving him for the week but Katie was amazing. I even think he gained a little weight while we were gone and I was worried he would lose. I felt so confident in Katie’s knowledge of animals that she would be able to recognize if my cancer kitty was in need of medical attention. She left such detailed updates and photos which put me at such ease every day when I knew my boys were doing well. Katie went above and beyond, she brought in mail and took out our garbage. We got home late last night to three happy cats, which is typically not the case because they get stressed out when we go away. But they were happy to see us and calm and I believe that’s because they were so well taken care of by Katie. She will be our go to pet sitter from now on.”
“I was going out of state over Christmas week, and needed Someone to check in on my just over 1 y/o cat Oliver for the time we were gone...I have heard of Rover, and decided to use... Angela was a life saver being available for my specific time fame! We kept in text contact also, while I was out of state...she was super thorough in sending pictures and detailed information on her daily check ins with Oliver, which really was reassuring! I would definitely use Angela/ this website in the future and would recommend rAngela to anyone who was searching for a great fur baby sitter! Thank you again Angela 🙂”
About: Asst in training service dogs, have had dogs for the past 25 years. I have also had cats but do not have one currently. I watch my neighbors' animals, to include a bunny and other small animals as well. I currently work from home most days and am able to work from anywhere with my laptop if I am needed to stay at your home. This also gives me the availability to leave for breaks to take your animal out for small walks or potty breaks during the day. I have always had 3 dogs at a time, but I just lost my last fur baby in January 2026 so we just got a puppy in April as I just can’t be without a fur baby. I care for my animals as family, not pets, they sleep with me and my husband and go with us when we are able to take them.I provide more of a motherly service and will care for your fur baby as if he/she were my own. This includes playing and snuggling.
“Kaylyn took wonderful care of our two Yorkies, Sasha and Malia, while we were away on a short vacation. She was professional, punctual, and very easy to work with. The girls absolutely loved her, and we had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will definitely be booking Kaylyn again!”
“Jillian was absolutely incredible when watching my 2 cats. They were both extremely comfortable around her, and she made my boys feel safe. When one of them puked a few times during visits, she cleaned it up and was very communicative. For my first experience letting someone besides friends watch my cats, 10/10, highly recommend Jillian!!”
“Caryn was fantastic! Communication was great, she was very friendly and sent great updates and pictures when she stopped to check on our kitties. We will absolutely book her again!”
“Amanda is amazing! She asked all the right questions when she met my fur babies and immediately I was out at ease. She is a fantastic communicator and send pics! I really felt like my animals were truly cared for while I was away!”

With an extensive background in animal behavior and care, I bring both professional and personal experience to every pet I look after. I’ve grown up with a dog for 8 years, currently share my home with my cat Sage, and even worked as an assistant zookeeper while studying veterinary science in college. These experiences have deepened my understanding of different animals’ needs and personalities, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or extra love while you’re away, I treat every furry friend like family. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and help make your life a little easier!

About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have a 7 year old German Shepherd and 4 year old black lab mix. I love all animals and spending time with them. I have experience with taking care of diabetic cats who received insulin twice a day. I work full time from home so I have flexibility throughout the day. I am about to become an empty nester now that my youngest will be heading off to college in August. I’ve found that I have a lot of free time. I am available to come to your house as often as needed to care for your fur babies. I can take your dog for walks or just snuggle with your cat, whatever is needed.
About: I will love your pets like they were my own! I have always had animals from multiple sized dogs, to cats, to hamsters and birds. My friends regularly reach out to have their pets stay with me while they are on vacation. I have always had animals and actually purchased my home for the fenced in yard so they could be free and play! I catch up with all the dogs in the neighborhood as they walk by. I know all the dogs names, it’s the peoples names I struggle with. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for your fur baby to run & play. I have always had multiple dogs and a cat and miss them every day.
“Andie took such good care of my kitty Kali! She was very attentive and her bubbly personality made me feel so safe and reassured in leaving Kali in her hands. 200% recommend her services 🥰”
“Shannon was able to do a last minute drop in visit with our dog Cooper - we love the photos & updates she provided! Cooper was happy & relaxed after spending time with her - we will rebook with Shannon in the future!”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, and playing with animals. I enjoy spending time with all kinds of pets whether that be a playful kitten or laid back senior dog. I make sure to remain attentive and ensure every pet is happy and safe while in my care. I’d love the chance to meet your pet soon! As a college student, I do classes in the morning and do gig work in the evenings. I could drop in and check on your pet anytime in the afternoon and evening. In your home when dropping in on your pet, I will provide you with anything you may need. Whether that be feeding them, letting them out, or even just sitting on the couch with them.
“Alysa was absolutely fantastic with our cats! She was very thorough, asked questions when needed, the litter box is clean and our kitties are happy and healthy upon our return. We are so very happy we chose her and will definitely be using her in the future!”

Kaylyn took wonderful care of our two Yorkies, Sasha and Malia, while we were away on a short vacation. She was professional, punctual, and very easy to work with. The girls absolutely loved her, and we had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will definitely be booking Kaylyn again!
Katie was wonderful. She took great care of our cat Kali! She spent time making sure she felt loved. She provided her with food, water, treats, grooming and even her twice a day asthma inhaler treatments. I highly recommend Katie and will use her again without hesitation.
Angela is the most awesome pet sitter. She was absolutely amazing. Made me feel so comfortable that my pets were taken care of. I will hire her again in a minute. I'm hooked. I can't even describe how wonderful she's been. Angela went above and beyond to help take care of my pets. Love, love, love her.
Johanna was excellent in providing care for our dog over the weekend. She made all appointments on time, followed all instructions and gave us appropriate updates throughout our time away. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for proper pet care.
Lexi did a great job checking on my dog. She was prompt to both the meet and greet and the doggy check-in. She was very friendly, and I could tell she loved animals. The “Rover Card” was a nice perk. It was great seeing my dog having fun and also receiving a summary of the visit. Lexi was great, and I would definitely book her again.
Jordan was wonderful! I felt very comfortable leaving our pup Leia in her care. She was very flexible and easy going, even working with me when we had to delay our trip by a day. We received regular updates and pictures while away and we came home to Leia very content. Thank you Jordan!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Shorewood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Shorewood. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
