“This was Romeo’s second time staying with Joe and Lilly and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter! He was very happy, comfortable, and well cared for during both stays.”


“Dan and his family are our go-to sitters since we moved to the area. Our elderly dog, Stella, has stayed with them over the weekend twice and will be staying with them again next month for over a week. They have been more than accommodating with her needs, from providing her endless attention to making sure she gets her medications on time. They are patient with her fussiness and also make sure she gets plenty of time to rest. They also reach out to us during the visit with photos and updates! While they often sit multiple dogs at once, they maintain excellent control ensuring everyone is happy and healthy. They are retired so the pets receive loads of affection and are not left alone. Stella has grown quite attached to Dan and we look forward to having her stay with them again soon! We highly recommend this attentive, caring family!”
“Ashlee was very communicate and sweet during Frankie’s stay with her! She was flexible and followed all of our requests. She sent updates with photos each night. Thanks Ashlee!”

“Our 2 dogs stayed with Mary for almost 2 weeks and I feel fortunate to have found her! She was great with our dogs and Ollie really enjoyed having Mateo as a playmate. I'm sure our dogs loved the huge fenced backyard. Mary was great with sending pics and video too. Thanks again Mary!”


“She was very nice. She responded very fast and sent lots of pictures. She gave updates everyday and let me know how everything was going. Would definitely book with her again”

“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!”

“Absolutely amazing people! They took exceptional care of my dog, and it was obvious he was happy, comfortable, and loved while he was with them. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring people to look after their pet. Thank you so much!”

“Great place to stay! We left our dog while we were on vacation for about 5 days and when we picked him up he had his nails trimmed and was given a bath. We got a updated with pictures/videos at least once a day and we could tell that he was exercised and happy!”


“Andrew helped watch my dog, Lucy, during a recent trip I had. He was very flexible and communicative throughout the process with drop off and pickup, and sent great photos throughout the stay to keep me comfortable regarding how Lucy was doing. Would absolutely book with him again.”


About: The Perfect Quiet Getaway for Your Senior Dog Hello! We are Nissa and Brian, a dog-loving couple offering a peaceful retreat exclusively for older, larger dogs. We know that senior dogs need a different kind of care—less chaos, more naps, and a safe, predictable environment to simply relax. Our home is a calm, quiet sanctuary. With no young kids running around the house, your dog will enjoy a genuinely low-stress environment where they can snooze undisturbed. We take exactly one dog at a time, guaranteeing your pet receives our undivided attention and a personalized, quiet stay. We have a secure, fully fenced-in backyard. It’s perfect for gentle, off-leash sniffing and leisurely sunny naps in the grass without the overwhelming energy of dog parks or busy streets. We have hands-on experience providing attentive, reliable care for dogs. We are entirely comfortable managing the unique pacing, comfort needs, and gentle handling that senior dogs require. To maintain our tranquil environment, we exclusively welcome: Senior Dogs: Ages 10 and up. Medium to Giant Breeds: We love the big dogs! Solo Guests: Only one pet per stay for maximum peace and quiet. If you have a gentle giant who just wants a soft spot to land and a quiet yard to explore, we would love to meet them! Pet care seamlessly integrates into our everyday lives, as we are both home throughout the day most of the week. Brian works from home and Nissa is home full-time, meaning your dog will rarely be left alone and will have constant, quiet companionship. Our weekends are similarly low-key and predictable. On Saturday mornings, Nissa heads to the farm for horse riding lessons while Brian heads out for a weekend trail run for a few hours. During this brief window, your dog will have a safe, quiet, and comfortable space to nap before we return for a relaxing afternoon together. Providing a safe, low-stress environment is our absolute top priority. We purposefully host only one dog at a time to ensure your senior pet receives our undivided attention without the unpredictable energy or stress of multiple dogs in the house. Our home is a calm sanctuary specifically tailored for medium to giant older dogs to relax in peace. We have a fully fenced-in backyard that is secure and perfect for gentle, supervised outdoor time. We always monitor outdoor breaks and ensure the indoor temperature and noise levels remain perfectly comfortable for a snoozing senior.
“Amanda was great! She was extremely accommodating for us and our pup Ginger! Her son was also great when it came to giving Ginger extra love and attention! Definitely recommend Amanda for any of your boarding needs.”

“Good communication, endless snuggles, happy pup. Provided updates throughout the entire stay. My dog was very loved and cared for and had a blast. Would definitely recommend and will book again!”

“My chihuahua, Suki, is a shelter rescue so a bit leary of people. But Krysta let Suki come sit with her on the sofa at her own pace, which she did! I will leave Suki with Krysta again.”

“Working with Julia and Colin was our first Rover experience and we could not be happier with how it went! Julia is extremely communicative and made the process easy. Our dog took to them very quickly and we could tell she was made comfortable in their home. We look forward to booking with them again!”


“Scott was a wonderful sitter to our dog, Phoebe. Excellent communication, professional, and friendly. He sent us a few pics while we were away to let us know how she was doing, which I especially appreciated. Definitely recommend Scott, and his cute dog Lucy, to anyone looking for a sitter and a playmate.”

Anna is 100% the best ever! We needed our puppy boarded for 16 days and she was able to accommodate us for most of that time, she took our pup to a local boarding service for the nights she was unable to watch her. Our pup developed a UTI and Anna took her to the urgent care and kept us informed, she administered the antibiotics to our pup while she had her. She recoverd from her UTI. We love when Anna watches our pup as she keeps her stimulated with activities and her lovely dog Tommy!

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.

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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
