“Amanda was wonderful! She stayed at our home for 4 nights and took great care of our 2 dogs and cat. She went above and beyond, even letting the dogs sleep with her, which made them feel right at home. We came back to happy pets and a clean home. We will definitely request her services again! I highly recommend Amanda —she’s responsible, caring, and truly loves animals!”
“Marissa was wonderful with Jackson! She kept me informed and shared pictures while we were away. She was also house sitting for us which made our vacation worry free! I will definitely use Marissa in the future.”
About: Hi there! My is Charlotte (“Charlie”). I’m a Certified Veterinary Technician. I have years of personal and professional experience with pets. I am fortunate to be able to offer individualized and consistent care in your home. Living in Wisconsin and commuting to the Twin Cities allows me to serve pets and their families in many areas. You dog is always welcome to come along for the ride! I am currently home full time and widely available for care. My day can most often be dedicated to or scheduled around caring for your pet! I diligently follow directions for care. Depending on the pet and their needs, I adapt my care style to make them as comfortable as possible.
About: I’m a dog groomer/trainer currently enrolled in the Academy for Dog Trainers. I’m a Certified Fear-Free Professional, Groom Tech, and Dog Groomer. I currently work at a dog training center and am continuing my education in order to help families resolve bigger behavioral issues with their dogs. I LOVE dogs. Force and fear free basically means that I only use positive reward methods to achieve my goals with dogs. I work part-time while attending school, so I’d like to use my available time to gain as much more dog care experience as I can. I will play with and positively interact with your dog for our entire time together. I LOVE dogs and greatly value the time I spend with them.
“Alec was great! He kept us updated, brought in mail, and cleaned while we were gone. Buddha was very sweet and calm and got along well with our two dogs. Would definitely recommend having Alec and Buddha to anyone and would book again in the future to take care of our fur babies.”
About: I have over 18 years of experience house and animal sitting from overnights to up to 6 weeks in duration; caring for not only dogs but also horses (full boarding barn to a couple of pasture horses), cats, fish, rabbits, goats, chickens, etc. I know what it's like to worry about my pets when I'm away, so I strive to give top notch care, follow all instructions, and have fun with your dog! All while keeping you updated with pictures/texts on how they're doing. I am happy to provide most any dog/house sitting arrangement, walking/visit or boarding. At our country home we have a peaceful and fun environment and private large field that is kept mowed. Your dog will be supervised very closely. Non smoking home. Thank you for considering me; I hope you have a great day! I am a stay at home mom to one and I am home most or all of the day. We are very flexible but also stay on schedule and can accommodate your dog's routine. We live in the country and have ample space for private walks as well as a large mowed field. I supervise very closely and am diligent about keeping your dog as safe as possible on leash while still having fun and exercising. I will feed and take dog out following all instructions.
About: I have lived with animals of all kinds for as long as I remember, ever since I was about 5 I would help my parents feed and take care of the animals, and I still help with many thing weither it's bathing, taking on walks, giving hair cuts, giving vaccinations, cutting nails, or giving medication of all sorts. I am currently a senior in high school so on weekdays I have to wait till 4:00 to love your fur-babys as much as you do. I will give your fur-babys the same care and love as I give my pets at home, while also meeting your specific care expectations to keep your fur-babys safe and happy.
About: I have tons of experience growing up with dogs of all breeds, recently moved out of my parents and missing mine, but I’ll love yours! I currently work full-time in rice lake. My schedule is pretty flexible but prefer early morning or late afternoons. I work every other weekend, I’m willing to board on my off weekends if needed. I live in an apartment so I don’t have much of a yard nor a fence but there are plenty of places to explore in town. A dog park near by is a plus!
“Jessica stayed at our house and took care of our dog, Destiny, while we were out of town for a week. She went above and beyond in every way possible. It is a leap of faith to trust someone with not only your pet, but also your house, and Jessica did not let us down in the slightest. She kept us updated with pictures and videos and was a great communicator. She left the house incredibly tidy and even stripped the bed and replaced some groceries -truly an incredible person. We could tell Destiny had a great time too! We are so grateful to have found Jessica and will continue to request her as our sitter when we go out of town. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars, truly an exceptional sitter!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 9 years old, so I have a deep understanding of their needs and behavior. I've had dogs from all ages, from puppies to senior dogs and it allows me to tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each pet. This blend of experience and expertise makes me a compassionate and reliable choice for any pet parent. I currently work full time out of the home, but close to home. I have a flexible schedule where if needed I can go home to give potty breaks, give treats and play with for a while. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment. I ensure they have plenty of space to roam, play, and relax. I provide regular potty breaks, feeding, and lots of attention, keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. For clients who prefer care in their own home, I offer drop-in visits or overnight stays. I maintain the pet’s regular schedule and provide companionship, playtime, walks, and feeding just as if they were in my own home. This option is ideal for pets who prefer the comfort and familiarity of their home environment. No matter where I care for pets, I ensure they get lots of love, exercise, and individualized attention!

“Charlie is a compassionate and caring pet lover. We worked at a children's horse camp together for many years and have stayed friends for 20+ years. She is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to all kinds of animals. She spent many years studying and practicing animal care professionally, she is beyond qualified to be the best Rover provider. She has a big pet family of her own, her dogs and my dog are best friends, Charlie teaches me something new about my dog every time we have a chance to get together. I've never met anyone who cares more for animals than her, if her calendar is open you would be SO lucky to have her watching your babies! She will treat them like they are her own. She will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is as comfortable as they can be. Highly recommend!”
Lillianna W.
“Lillianna has been doing house/pet sitting, drop-in care, and exercise and enrichment with my animals for several years now. She has handled excited giant puppies, a fearful young male dog, elderly cats with health care needs, and post-amputation enrichment and training for a young male kitten. Lillianna has unfailingly been responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. She has met each animal where there are at, and each has fallen in love with her. Lillianna has shared photos and videos of touching moments when appropriate, and has answered any questions in a timely manner. I can wholeheartedly and with full enthusiasm recommend Lillianna for any animal related care she offers.”

“My dogs loved Mary and she provided me updates so I knew they were doing well.”
Alexandra F.
“I've known Alex for several years as she's the daughter of one of my co-workers. I've been to her family's home many times where they have several pets of their own including cats, dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs and have seen Alex taking care of them in a loving and caring manner. I have had her care for my own pets in my home, I have a very timid 80# Pitbull along with a sassy cat. My dog was very comfortable with her and really enjoyed Alex taking her for walks and car rides. My cat allowed Alex to pet her which is more than she does for most people :) Alex showed up on time and stayed for the time that was agreed upon. As I watched her grow up, I know that Alex has always been a hard worker, a good student and a kind, responsible young lady in general. My pets and I look forward to her coming back for pet-sitting.”
