“Laura is so sweet. It usually takes quite a bit for my dog to warm up to someone. However, she took right to Laura. Laura sent pictures, came prepared and was punctual. My fur baby has a new friend. Thank you Laura!”
About: I've always grown up living around pets and animals of any kind, grew up with farm animals and household pets, lots of experience with both large and small dogs, and plenty of experience with cats. I currently have 3 cats at my home, and I love spending time with dogs as well. I've worked with both young and old cats and dogs as well! I also have experience with disabled pets (one of my dogs was a rescue that lost a leg in an accident). My partner works full time as a manager at a local pizza place in Stoughton, so they might come and go a bit for work, but I work from home and am able to stay in the home with your animals when and as needed. I work from home as a digital artist, so my schedule is completely open and flexible, and I can fit in pet care at any time that might be needed. I am very open to working around any specific care needs your fur family might need, and can work around your wants and needs for your pets care in and out of your home!
About: I grew up on a farm, which is pretty much where my animal obsession began! I was surrounded by cows, pigs, horses, chickens, cats, dogs — basically if it had fur, feathers, or hooves, I probably helped take care of it. Growing up around so many different animals taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and how every animal has their own unique personality. Ever since then, animals have just naturally been a huge part of my life! I’m a full-time nurse with a flexible schedule, since I only work 3–4 days a week. That means I have plenty of time, energy, and attention to dedicate to your furry friends! Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I accommodate to every pets needs! I have crates, I do structured playtime and go on long walks to exert energy. I also have a friendly dogs who would love to keep your pet company.
About: My first job was as a kennel attendant at a local vet clinic where I learned a lot about animal care. I have also worked at a boarding facility. Since working there, I have started my own pet sitting service called “Bodens Buddies”. I started this service for a number of reasons; one, to give my dog Boden unique social opportunities, and two, because I believe pets thrive in a home setting even if it’s not their home. I am currently working part time as I continue my college studies, so I have plenty of time to commit to your pet(s)! My schedule is flexible! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog of my own. I also have two cats who can be spaced in another area if needed.
About: I have 18 years of dog care ranging from injured elderly good boys and girls to young and high maintenance high energy herding dogs. I love long walks or short, and I always have time for a little fetch for the ones that need the extra exercise and stimulation. I work full time, but mostly remote. I'm available for most lunch-time, after or before work, and weekend walks. I'm available on weekends to help with potty breaks and a little extra love and attention. I emphasize exercise as a daily necessity for dogs. It's a great source of engagement, as well as helping more nervous ones get some of that anxiety out of their system. My own high energy girl needs a daily 2 mile walk and fetch to keep her happy, so I'm OK going that extra block with yours.
About: I have pet-sitting experience for all kinds of animals. I've always loved pets and have a house full of chickens, rabbits, cats, a snake, birds, fish and dogs. I am a respectful and accommodating person, happy to give you regular updates, send pictures, and if you would like, collect your mail or water your plants. I am organized and I will ensure your home is the same upon your return. I'll be glad to walk your dog(s) in the morning and/or in the evening. We can gather these finer details of your pets via email. I have experience with all kinds of animals. From raising them to providing proper space for them as well as long term care. Chickens, Great Danes, reptiles, you name it. I've owned many animals all my life and I want to continue to add more experience by sharing my time with other pets. Caring for all kinds of animals brings me incredible joy! Ensuring they have fresh food and water, exercise, stimulation, and love is of the utmost importance. I am flexible and can work with you to suit the needs of your pets. I'm comfortable giving medications too.
“Dayna took care of Sammy for two walks this week and she was so sweet to him. She followed the instructions perfectly and even gave him extra love and carrots. You can tell she really cares about the fur babies as we do and we really appreciated her kindness! Thanks so much again!”
About: I have loved and cared for animals of all kinds since I was five years old. Currently, I am a proud pet parent to three dogs and an indoor/outdoor cat. I am also the go-to pet sitter for my extended family, regularly caring for a wide variety of pets—from my younger brother’s Husky to my older brother’s three cats and Miniature Poodle, as well as my parents’ two senior dogs (including one with special needs who wears a leg brace). My oldest dog, Rizzo, a Chihuahua mix, celebrated her 15th birthday in May 2026 with a full "Quinceañera" alongside our human and fur family! Over the years, caring for Rizzo through various health challenges has made me exceptionally comfortable with special-needs pet care. When she was 9, she underwent successful CCL surgery, followed by a full recovery supported by daily physical therapy. At age 13, she overcame IMHA following her annual vaccinations; after a year of dedicated care, she is now in full remission and thriving. Rizzo shares our home with two loving, playful pup siblings: Mogie (11) and Buddy (5). We also have a sweet rescue cat named Gizmo, who joined our family after a neighbor passed away. Known locally as the "Neighborhood Cat," Gizmo loves fishing on docks, making friends with neighborhood kids, and coming inside each evening for dinner and snuggles. All of my pets are wonderful with children. As a licensed Foster Parent since 2024 specializing in infants and toddlers, I maintain a safe, nurturing home environment. Having recently stepped away from a high-stress career, I am dedicating my time to work I truly love: providing attentive, high-quality care to both children and animals. Note, I am Cat and Dog First Aid and Adult, Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED through the Red Cross. I hope to meet you soon! Jena I am currently on a career sabbatical, which gives me complete flexibility during regular business hours while my foster children are at school or daycare. I am available for drop-ins and pet walks anytime between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Safety, loving care, and routine are my top priorities during every drop-in visit and walk. I genuinely adore all animals and treat every pet with individual affection, patience, and warmth. I am happy to adapt to the unique needs of senior or special needs pets, ensuring proper medication administration, gentle mobility support, or a calm environment. I strictly follow your guidelines for feeding, walking routes, and house rules. After every visit, I will secure your home, send a detailed update with photos, and share feedback on how your pet did so we can continuously coordinate and fine-tune future visits.
About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and caring for them. I have experience with dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, cleaning up after them, and spending time playing and keeping them comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic or more shy and relaxed. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while their owner is away. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. With my background as a former dog groomer and long-term experience in the pet industry, I’m very comfortable caring for animals and enjoy making them feel safe, calm, and cared for. I care for pets by following their normal routine closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any medications. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and comfort, and I’m experienced in handling different temperaments from my time working in boarding facilities and pet care. My goal is to make pets feel safe and cared for as if they were my own.
“I am so happy we found Jennifer to walk our dog. She's a very caring and responsible person. She asked great questions when we met for introductions. She was on time and let me know of schedule changes and was flexible in rescheduling. Our dog loves her. I highly recommend Jennifer to care for your pets.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a child, primarily Labs. I walk for exercise and would love to have your dog along. I’m a travel RN not on a contract at the moment. I drive to Madison daily to workout so I can easily exercise your pets at your convenience. I only offer walking services at the moment. I will ensure that your pet is safe from traffic and other animals. I will treat them as my own.
“Elizabeth is a very professional and caring dog walker. My dog looked forward to her visits. She follow directions perfectly and asked pertinent questions. I will definitely book with her again.”
About: I've had a dog for most of my life. I have taken care of friends and family members dogs in my home and also in their home. I'm a retired teacher with time to spare. We have a 2 year old Aussiedoodle. Her name is Izzy.. She loves to play. She is a very busy pup and keeps us on our toes. Izzy's favorite thing to play is frisbe. She has also enjoyed taking classes at the Janesville/Beloit Kennel Club. My schedule is fairly flexible. Let's get started by setting up a meet and greet so I can get to know your pup. I am currently taking a break from boarding dogs in my home. We have 2 year old pup who occupies most of our time. She is an Aussiedooddle named Izzy. We are working on training and can't wait until she is ready to have another dog around. I'm a retired teacher so my schedule is fairly flexible. I do some volunteering in the community and attend a couple of exercise classes during the week. When I care for pets in my home or in their home they are treated as if they were my own. They are my priority when they are in my care.
About: I have owned an animal since I was a kid. I have had 3 dogs Have done dog sitting for my neighbors and dog walking.

After work and on weekends. I play with and feed and walk my dog and give cuddles I also walk and give treats and pets to my neighbors dog almost daily.
About: Animals are my passion and I love taking care of them. I grew up with dogs and cats. Some with anxiety issues, some with limiting physical issues. I definitely have experience with all the personalities our fur face family members can have. It’s very important for me to advocate for our best friends when they can’t advocate for themselves. Putting a smile on their face with a walk or a trip to the dog park or just extra pets at home is the best! I’ve been taking dogs on outings for years now. Whether it be a stroll around the neighborhood or to the local dog park. A tired dog is a good dog is my motto. I look forward to working with you! Please contact me with any questions you may have. Thanks for reading. 🦮
About: I have had dogs all my life and in all stages of their lives; puppies to seniors. I currently am a Foster Parent for Fetch Wisconsin Rescue and have found it so very rewarding, I figured a part time opportunity to walk, play and take care of others furry family members would also be extremely rewarding, and the exercise would be beneficial too! My current job schedule is working from home from Monday - Friday from 6am to 3pm. I am free after those hours and on weekends. I would use the double leash method for dog walks, especially in the beginning when the pups do not know me. Then after the relationship is formed, I would leave it up to the owner to decide if they feel I should continue this method.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stoughton
Jill has been great with our two dogs, especially our new young dog that is still getting the hang of walking on a leash. She is experienced working with strong dogs, clearly cares for them, and is timely with her walks despite getting off of work close to the time we requested our walks. We are very happy with Jill as our dog walker!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Stoughton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Stoughton.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Stoughton. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
