“Julia and Colin were great! They communicated well and even met Toast before boarding! We received a lot of pictures where our dog was smiling and having a good time with them. We will definitely book again!”
“Kim is absolutely the best, super reliable, very communicative, and takes great care of our dog. We don't have to worry about her when she is with Kim and her husband, which makes our trips away more fun!”
“Gabriel did such a nice job keeping my 12 week old puppy overnight. His dog Mel and my puppy got along great. I will definitely book Gabriel again. Thank you Gabriel and Mel!”
“Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!”
“Yolanda and her family did a wonderful job with Gizmo. It was our first time leaving him for a week and with someone through Rover. Yolanda's patience, kindness, and experience brought me relief knowing that my dog was in great hands. She did everything possible to calm my anxiety-ridden fur baby and made him comfortable; kept me updated and was responsive; sent me photos; and was very easy/flexible to work with. By the end of the week, Gizmo was playing with other dogs and taking long walks twice a day, which he never does! He's been home for almost 24 hours and I can tell he misses Yolanda, but mostly, he's been sleeping like a baby. LOL. I couldn't thank Yolanda and her family enough. I finally found someone who was willing to take in my dog and refused to give up on him even when times were hard. I highly recommend her services! I've found my FOREVER dog sitter :) Thank you again Yolanda!!”
“Andrew and his family treated my Oscar as part of their family. He was in constant communication with me while I was away in Italy for almost 3 weeks. Andrew is very kind and very easy/flexible. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy person to watch their furbabies! Thank you Andrew!”
About: Hi there! We are recently new residents to Milwaukee and the Lower East Side and we would love to make some new friends in the neighborhood! We have gained a lot of experience caring for a variety of different pets in Chicago for over a year on Rover before our move. Personally, both of our families owned dogs & cats throughout each of our childhoods which has given us a natural experience with pets as well. We look forward to the opportunity to meet your beloved dogs & cats! BOARDING CLIENTS: We have recently opened our services for boarding dogs in our apartment! I work remotely 5 days a week at home so your dog will have no shortage of attention and care! We are deeply considering getting our own dog soon, so we’re treating every boarding guest like our test run! Your pup will get all the love, structure, and attention we’re practicing for our future family member—plenty of walks, play, cuddles, and a calm apartment to call home while you’re away! Please ask us any questions you may have! Andrew works fully remote 5 days a week and the nature of my job is very flexible so I am able to step out if needed/when requested. Taylor is fully in office but may occasionally be available. Additionally, we’re particularly looking to use some of our free time we have on the weekends to care for some pets together! We want to earn your trust that your animals are safe with us, and respect your home & privacy in doing so. Kindly communicate your preferences and your pet’s needs so we can make sure we’re doing everything we can to facilitate a comfortable experience for you and your pet from start to finish!
“Frank was really wonderful with Josie. He was very communicative and sent lots of photos during her stay. Highly recommended, will definitely be a repeat customer”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing with Chase and Coco! She kept me updated the entire time with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were well cared for, happy, and loved while I was away. I had no issues or problems at all. I truly appreciate the excellent care she provided, and I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Alisha was great with my two pugs last weekend. She was very understanding of my quirky older dog's needs. Her boxer is so friendly and a wonderful playmate or pillow for doggy guests!”
“Laura did a great job with my pup again! I know that he is well cared for and safe when she is taking care of him. He always has a great time with her dog Diesel and goes on nice walks. I love how he always comes back to me good and tired! I highly recommend Laura and I will definitely be using her again!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”
“Ashlee took great care of my 1-year old pup. He had fun playing with her dogs, and she was willing to take him at the last minute. She is very friendly and responsive.”
“Absolutely a wonderful visit with Michael for my little dog, Rosie. So much attention and care was given to her. Photos and updates were provided daily. Most importantly, Rosie was given affection and gentle kind care. I can definitely recommend Michael for wonderful pet care.”
“Monique was great! Communicated everyday to let me know how Roscoe was doing and sent him home with a great report card that let me know overall how things went. Roscoe had a great time there!!”
About: Hi! I'm excited to have the chance to meet your pup(s)! I have personal and professional petcare experience. I have been lucky enough to have had dogs my whole life. I also recently spent 2 years as a professional dogwalker with Wag. I've cared and walked dogs of all kinds, older, younger, pullers, take-their-timers, and can't wait until someone wants me to take their dog for a run! :) I love puppies and helping to train, youtube certified. I have also volunteered at the Humane Society walking dogs there! For boarding, I do have a cat, but can easily separate the areas in my apartment to accommodate. I work full-time 830-5. I have a camera in my place in case of an emergency and work close enough and have amazing flexibility to make adjustments to my schedule. Safety is always the priority. Harness is preferred, but a secure collar/leash is a must. I also tend to avoid other dogs/people at all times to ensure a calm and easygoing visit. I'm very accessible by phone and follow instructions to the dot. I live steps away from the Oak Leaf Trail, so expect lovely and peaceful walks if boarding.
“Scott was very accommodating and communicative, we got several pictures and even a short video of our dog out playing in the fresh snow. Our dog has a fear of smooth floors and Scott was able to layout enough rugs and beds that Barley was comfortable. Will book again.”
“Leaving our dog with Auria (overnight) was our first experience with Rover.com and it was great! She messaged us with photos and words of assurance that our dog was having a great time with her dogs and doing well. She also replied quickly to our messages before and during our dog’s stay with her. Thanks Auria!”

Kim is so wonderful! We tried boarding our dogs and they did not like it, this was our first time our dogs stayed with someone else other than family. It felt so good to not be stressed about the dogs. They were so happy, Kim sent tons of pictures, stayed in contact! She has changed our life’s. She’s the best! We are so grateful for you!!! Will be using her services from here on out. THANK YOU!
Devashi was amazing with our pup, Fuji! She was so gentle and kind with Fuji, who is typically a nervous and shy dog. She sent us photos and updates, and when we picked her up, she was so happy and smiley. I know Fuji is looking forward to her next visit with Devashi.
Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!
Lisa took the best care of Archie! She sent us pictures and messages to let us know how he was doing throughout the week. She was also quick to respond to any questions we had. She was flexible as always with pick up and drop off times and made it super easy. Lisa is the best!!!!
Amy and Jay were great sitters for our dog, Brooks. We are so grateful we found them last minute! They provided cute updates throughout the stay and Brooks returned happy and relaxed :) you can tell they love dogs and we would absolutely ask them again in the future.
Mika is awesome. She is trustworthy and skilled in relating to my dog who was immediately comfortable at our meet and greet. Mika sent pictures during my trip and reassured me that everything was cool. I am so glad we connected and I will be reaching out to her again without a doubt.
Ethan and Sara were amazing! They took fantastic care of our dog, Auggie. A super responsive, thoughtful, and caring couple. They kept us updated while we were on our trip, asked great questions, and kept Auggie exercised (his favorite thing to do), happy, and comfortable. Would recommend 🌟 and look forward to another opportunity to have them dogsit for us!
Angie was great to work with. Despite my dog Jozzie’s quirks and mannerisms she was bow to make her feel at home and comfy. I also appreciated the photos she took of Jozzie lounging around in their spacious back yard on the river ! Thanks Angie. I hope you can take care of Jozzie in the future!
Flor was such an amazing sitter for our pups! We needed someone to care for our girls while we went to summerfest and I’m so glad we found her. She was very communicative and proactive with our dogs, and mentioned many things she does for dogs that are above and beyond, like rolling up a towel with treats or food (which is something we do at home with ours but have never asked or mentioned to a sitter previously). I was worried about our girls, especially our older one, because Flor and her partner were watching them during an extreme heat wave, but they took such great care and only took them out very late, and even prepared frozen fruit for them (they didn’t eat any apparently but at least they had the option!). As soon as I dropped our dogs off, we got very sweet pictures of them cuddling on the couch, and lots of videos and pictures over the 24 hour stay. I would absolutely have Flor watch our girls again! Thank you so much for taking them into your home!
Emily was incredible! We left our pup with her for over a week as we travelled for a vacation. Leela received so much attention and care from her! Emily also sent us regular updates and communication was easy and smooth. Thank you so much Emily for caring for her so well :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Shorewood on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 824 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Shorewood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
85% of Shorewood sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Shorewood landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Shorewood 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 Shorewood.
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 Shorewood 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.
