About: I have both a cat and dog at my home which I take care of. I also have both watched cats and dog sat for families in my area. I’m currently available after 5 pm Mon-Thursday after 3 on Fridays and anytime during the weekend! I have some midday availability sometimes as well, we can chat more about this. I am happy to follow a list you leave behind in order to care for your animal! It’s important for me to know what your animal likes and doesn’t like!

“Hillary did an awesome job checking in on my cats while we were away for a few days. They are both very shy, but she got them to come out the first day she fed them!”


About: (WILL BE LEAVING ROVER AFTER AUGUST FOR CAREER PURPOSES) I've been a pet parent for as long as I can remember! I grew up around various dog breeds and other exotic pets so I'm well versed in pet personalities! I've worked in 3 doggy daycares over the past 5 years and have loved every second of it ! I'm able to administrator medication as well to senior or special care pets ! Currently working a few side gigs so my schedule is super flexible! I'm an early bird and can be there as needed but tend not to be around too late at night. I'd love to have your furry friend as part of my daily routine ! I'm used to different sized dogs so wrangling them into crates or rooms as needed is no problem ! I take extra care to keep your home clean and loved to make your time away stress free for you and your pet! (As a policy of my own, I don't tend to stay overnight in client homes unless discussed)

“Sara was great! I will definitely be using her in the future. She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. She hung out with our cat, emptied the litter boxes and even brought in our mail.”



About: I grew up on a horse farm. I always had dogs for most of my life . Except when I lived in an apartment for a short time where I could not have one. My sister and I use to have fake dog shows as kids. It was so much fun. Now I have 2 loveable doggies of my own that i adopted . They love our fenced in backyard and my daughter and I walk them every day as a team.When Taylor was a toddler we would go out and visit grandma and aunt / sister and give chino her dog lots of love and walks. Also in the last 5 years my late moms dog rosie who was also adopted. Dogs are great.

About: I have 2 dogs of my own. Also I have experience with older dogs and puppies. I love all animals! I'm not scared of much either! I currently work part time. So I'm pretty open. I'm available after 10:30am on Wednesday Saturday and Tuesday Thursday and Friday after 4:30. I'm available all day on Sunday and Monday I care for my pets by taking them to the dog park twice a week making sure they have food and water. Also making sure they are utd on their shots.

About: Hi, I’m Bethany! I’ve been caring for pets professionally for over 10 years, and I truly treat every animal like they’re part of the family. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or other furry friends, I’m experienced with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and special needs. From energetic puppies to laid-back seniors, I’ve worked with them all and love every minute of it. I’m also a stay-at-home mom to a sweet baby boy who comes with me on all visits. He’s still little, so he’ll either be in a stroller or being worn in a baby carrier—always calm, quiet, and close to me. Your pet will still receive my full attention, love, and care, with a gentle, nurturing presence alongside us. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. Let’s set up a meet and greet—I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help! I am a stay at home mom so that I can attend to your babies at any given time or help out in an emergency! I can provide for your babies with drop in visits or dog walking! I will provide everything you may need plus got the extra mile for you! I love on each pet as it my own, and send lots of pictures and updates!!

About: I have owned all sorts of dogs, big and small, so I know the specific needs for nearly every breed. I am an energetic person so I love to walk/run with dogs, but I also enjoy cuddling up and just giving them loving! At this time, there are no animals of my own in the house. I really hope to find clients that would like recurring stays/visits so I can make more furry friends and figure out the best care for that specific dog. Also, I'm an avid runner, so high energy dogs are very welcome! I work at the hospital nearly every day, but I am able to give your pet my full attention during the weekends. Dogs that are routinely left home during the weekday are welcome during the week, as I am not able to come home and let them out during the day. I am typically gone for about 10 hours a day. We live on a 10 acre farm with tons of room to run and explore (on leash)! We have outdoor farm animals but they tend to mind their own business and don’t bother visitors! Your pet will be treated like my own while in my care, plus some extra treats! ;)

About: I have 3 animals of my own as I am an all animal lover. I have taken care of cats and dogs since they were little. Can provide most requests. I am available most days and times throughout the week! It is preferred dogs are house trained and only need to be let out for potty breaks and walks. I treat every animal as if they are my own, I am very excited to meet all the new animals! I will spend as much time time with them as possible

About: I am a professional, certified dog trainer and I want to bring my skills and passion for pet care to your aid. I have 15 years professional experience working with dogs and 12 years of training under my belt (mostly positive training, no force or intimidation!) I can drop in for potty breaks, or feed and water your pup. I can administer medications and change bandages as I have been trained to do. On walks we can head to the Janesville dog park for the trails or stroll around town depending on your location. If your dog is safe off leash we can even throw in a game of fetch for added running benefits! I can care for more than just dogs, too! I have experience with numerous exotic pets (snakes, lizards, rats, rabbits, and much more!) as well as horses and other farm critters! Chickens, pigs, and others. If you need pet care for your non-dog or cat animals contact me! I will pet sit small caged animals in my home. I will provide photos during my time with your pooch as well, so you can see how their doing and know they are safe and happy! Please NO retractable leashes! If you do not have a standard 4 or 6 foot leash I will use my own to walk your pup! Let me care for your dog when you can't - feed and water, medications, or just cuddles. I'm here to help you, help your pet. Pet Sitting is my only and primary income source and I book up fast! Schedule me sooner rather than later to get the spots you need. Dogs are let out to potty in the location you choose. I will clean up any mess they may have left, especially puppies. I can also give medications or clean cages of small animals. For farm animals, I will feed, water, and can give medicine.

About: I grew up in a family that always had dogs, ranging from small dogs (like Chihuahuas) to big dogs (like German Wirehairs). As a child, I took on dog training experience through my local 4-H group and pursued that for a large portion of my early education career. Since then, I have always been a lover of dogs and have taken on many responsibilities, not only for my family dogs, but for my roommate’s dogs as well. Any care and love your dog needs, I would be happy to provide it! I’m available for pet care during the week and on weekends from the end of June through early September. Whether you need drop-in visits or overnight home stays, I’m happy to help, just please be sure to book in advance so I can plan accordingly! I kindly ask for at least one day’s notice for cancellations. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Please note: I do not offer dog care in my own home as I live in an apartment. However, I’m happy to provide in-home care at your residence for both dogs and cats! For dogs, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, including regular walks, outdoor playtime (at a nearby dog park or fenced yard), and bathroom breaks every 30–60 minutes based on their needs. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you provide to keep your pup happy and comfortable. For cats, I offer attentive and respectful care, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and affection (if your cat is the cuddly type!). I understand feline behavior and know how to give them the space or snuggles they prefer. Whatever your pet needs, I’m here to help while keeping their routine as stress-free as possible!

About: I have had multiple dogs since I was born. They were of different sizes and breeds. I have also dog sat for multiple family friends. Work some on the weekends, but available all throughout the week. I work 8 hour shifts on the weekends so I will care for your pets right before and after my shift. I have my own very sturdy dog leash that I can use if you don’t have one. I also have a vehicle so I’m able to drive to different places.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my hands-on experience and dedication. I've fed cats and dogs, walked them, and stayed overnight for extended periods. I've also trained puppies and my own dog, ensuring a well-rounded approach to pet care. Pet owners have relied on me for consistent care, knowing I’m always there when needed. My commitment to providing personalized and compassionate attention makes me a trustworthy choice for any pet sitting job. I am currently a technical college student who only goes to school twice a week while the rest is online, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available to care for your dog Thursday-Sunday most weeks and will give them all the time they need! I like to know the pets routine/schedule and understand any behavior they may have. I would love to know the intentions of me watching your beloved doggy and what you need from me personally to make you and your dog as comfortable as possible.

“Our dogs received excellent care with Marissa and the pictures she sent was a very nice touch so we could see how they were doing. The “Bears” were much more relaxed staying at home in their natural habitat then going to a kennel.”

Whitney W.
“While I was gone from home for 4 months Whitney watched after my dog the whole time and he loves her! She would always send me videos and let me know how he was doing!”


Alyssa L.
“Alyssa is such an animal lover! Dogs are her passion! She's been handling and training hunting dogs since she was 2 and has grown up with labs in the house. Every pet we have owned has chosen to sleep with her! When it comes to care, she is always checking the dogs over like their teeth, ears, etc just to be sure all is good. She definitely likes to treat the dogs but they know they have to wait til you leave the dinner table. Family friends hire her to stay at their house with their fur babies when they go on vacation instead of sending them to boarding. Alyssa would have lots of love and care for your fur baby!”


Brenley J.
“Brenley has been watching my puppy, Remi 3 to 4 days out of the week while I’ve been working since we brought her home in October. While being with Brenley, Remi has learned almost all basic commands (sit, stay, come, lay down) and more! Brenley is flexible and very reliable. I trust Brenley 100% and I hope when I bring home my next puppy, she can be there to help me in the training process and also be someone I can call if I ever need a dog sitter! I recommend Brenley to any dog owner :)”


Sarah B.

“Sarah was prompt and my dog immediately took to her. They went for a nice long walk and he was happy and tired at the end! I will definitely use her again to entertain my pup.”
