“Brenda did a PHENOMENAL job with Pablo :) this is my first time using Rover and I was a bit confused and anxious but Brenda helped me navigate SO smoothly. My dog Pablo gets along with everyone but I could tell from the photo she sent, he was SO happy and content :) I will absolutely be rebooking with her for Pablo’s future walkies”
2. Grace H.
“We were blessed to have Grace care for our 6 year old dog, Ranger, She kept him company and gave him lots of love while we were gone. He was able to take walks and stay active so he was pretty tired when we came home. We would definitely have Grace take care of Ranger again!”
3. Kali B.
“Kali was wonderful! Took Norman for a walk while I ran into campus for a meeting. She was right on time, and very sweet with Norman. He’s definitely a puller and she did great walking him. He was clearly sad to see her go. Would absolutely use Kali again!”
4. Evie M.
“Evie has helped me so many times with my two pets! They absolutely adore her and so do my husband and I. She is responsive, timely, and attentive. She told me she nearly went to vet school and her love of animals is quite apparent in her engagement with them. I highly recommend her for Rover.”

“Tara is an amazing animal and home caretaker! She has watched both my small and nervous dog Maple and my energetic and crazy puppy Fern. They love her so much that they dance around and go nuts when they get to see her! She is super clean and attentive, in addition to being a superstar with all kinds of plant! Your house and pets will be well-loved in Tara's hands!”

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a baby as well as have spent weekends dog sitting for neighbors and other family friends. I am a huge dog person and would love to watch yours! I am currently a student at the University of Wisconsin and spend much time doing school work. However that does not mean I do not have free time and I would love to take care of dogs in my spare time. I have been around dogs my entire life so I have a pretty good grasp on how to take care of dogs and how to make sure they are happy and healthy.
10. Sammi S.
About: I have been taking care of animals in some form or another since I was five years old. Caring for animals is something I not only enjoy with passion, but excitement too. I have experience caring for many different types of animals — from rodents to fish, dogs to cats, and horses to exotic animals — both on my own time and professionally. I am currently an electrical apprentice with Local Union 159, so I’m busy until 4 pm on weekdays. However, I am available on weekday evenings and anytime on weekends! My priority is providing the best service, no matter what time of day. I am comfortable with dogs on leash or off leash in a fenced in area. I can crate your dog if needed, and I am happy to follow your regular routine to keep your pup on schedule!
11. Seanna B.
“Seanna has always been known in our house as "The Dog Whisperer" ever since she was little! She is now off at college, but our 2 dogs always look forward to her coming home. She takes them on long walks and swims, while including training in with their fun. Of course, when encountering other's dogs, she has to stop and say "Hi". I, and all that know her, would definitely trust Seanna with their pets!”
12. Heather R.
“Heather is a huge dog lover, is super active and loves playing with them. She’s one of my go to dog sitters and always takes amazing care of her and keeps her active, on top of giving her lots of love and care. She’s very responsible and will make sure your dog is happy and safe!”
13. Anaya S.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and started taking on responsibilities of owning a dog at the age of 10. I also worked in an animal shelter for awhile taking care of both the cats and dogs by providing thorough cleaning to cages and walking dogs of all personality types. I mainly focused on cats in the shelter and learned a lot about them that I never knew; I understand their shyness, personable traits, and much more, which eventually led me to getting my own cat! Overall, I love hanging out and providing care to all animals. Soon, I will be starting a part-time job. I do not have my schedule yet, but when I do I will update that information. On days I’m off and before or after work I would be willing to provide care in any way. In my home, I would make sure the animal staying would have access to all the necessities: food, water, toys, treats and a comfy spot to lay down if they choose. I would also ensure dogs would be taken for walks or potty breaks every 2 hours. In a client’s home, I would stop by for 30min-an hour and provide the same care.
14. Allison A.
“She did a wonderful job walking my dog Ginger! Professional, prompt, and reliable, and very helpfully flexible when I had a last-minute change in plans. I would absolutely have her back if I needed a walker again.”
15. Amy R.
“Franc goes to Amy's house 2 days a week for day care. I would swear he knows when he's going to see Amy & Ernie, as he has a little pep in his step those days! Franc gets tons of attention & socializing at Amy's & she has even taught him a few tricks! Franc has gone from an anxious, nervous, untrusting rescue to a little man who is gaining confidence, is silly & likes attention. I attribute a huge amount of his progress to Amy. Franc loves her. Thank you, Amy!”
16. Ameilia D.
About: I grew up on a small hobby farm which had its own two dogs, and other various farm animals. From growing up with animals all around me I've learned that there is a lot more than just feeding and watering, but also looking out for there body language and behaviors. Friends and family have trusted me with there animals on a number of occasions. Right now, I'm part time so I have plenty of time to make sure your dog or cat feels loved when you are not home. When caring for other pets, I make sure they feel totally safe and comfortable with me. Also love to make sure they have plenty of playtime and enjoy spending time with your fur babies.
17. Maia D.
“Maia was awesome and very accommodating. I made a last minute appointment and have crazy dogs and she really did a great job! If she can handle my crazy dogs with grace she can handle anyone's well!”
18. Neema J.
About: I am a dog, cat and pet lover. I will stop 10/10 times to pet a dog and learn about him or her. At the local park, I know most of the dogs by their names and ironically, few of the owners haha. I would love the opportunity to spend time with someone's best friend and help out! I am very attentive, detail oriented and careful with animals. I also know animals are more than "pets" they are just like family. I would be honored to help take care of someone's best friend for a few hours or days to help out. I offer a safe, secure space for someones pet as well as close access to a park and outdoor space. I am available for walks as well as for visits or assistance on Fridays and most weekends. I believe dogs help people just as much as people help dogs! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to accommodate pet parents and their schedules as needed. I am able to offer short or longer walks, pet sitting and other services as needed. In my home, I have a clear open space and am able to spend close time with my clients pets while they are in my care. We are just a short distance to a small park with plenty of outside walking options. We can sit and watch tv, play catch, or take naps.
19. Emily D.
“Emily is a sweet woman who is definitely an animal lover! My dog fell in love with her and thoroughly enjoyed each walk they went on. I highly recommend Emily as she is dependable and will be wonderful with your fur baby!”
20. Kendall B.
“Kendall came by twice a day this week to take care of our two dogs and we are so grateful for her love and care for our pups! She’s wonderfully kind and reliable and we’re lucky to have her help!”
