About: I have been taking care of neighborhood dogs as well as my own since I was 6. I have also been working in doggie daycares for 4+ years; I take a lot of pride in being able to build connections with the dogs I get to take care of! I am currently a full-time worker, but I can always make time for your pet! I tend to have a bit more availability in the mornings!☀️ I like to come and hang out with the dogs as well as taking walks when it's nice out. I am able to administer any medications needed, as I am trained/told. I am also willing to give any baths or extras as long as I get the instruction!
“Michel is awesome! She takes great care of my kitties and they love her. I feel really comfortable going out of town knowing that she will be taking care of my pets. She sends me such great photos of them also. Would highly recommend Michel!”
About: I have experience fostering cats and dogs of all ages the last 6 years. I have experience with special needs dogs and cats, reactive dogs, and puppy training. I work from 7:30-4 Monday-Friday I am available to stay at the house to be there in the morning for the pets. I will be there right after work. I unfortunately cannot watch pets at my place, but I can stay at your place or can just stop by to feed and let out.
About: I have been around animals all my life and even gravitate towards animals versus people in most social situations. I have cared for small Poodles and Terriers, as well as Labs and Great Danes. When I was in middle school, I taught my Golden Retriever obedience and agility. I put 110% effort into all jobs I am hired for because it’s truly something I love. I am an active individual who also loves to snuggle up on the couch with a good book. So whether your pet is an active walker or a cuddly couch potato, I promise to provide them with the love care they need while you are away. I can't wait to sit for your family and help ease your worry while you’re away! Before going to work as a teacher, I would make sure to check in on your pet in the morning. Feed them, take them potty, and depending on time take them for a morning walk. Directly after work, I would go home to see my cat Benny, and then go visit your house. I’ll make sure that your pup is fed, goes on a walk, or has a great amount of playtime and snuggles! Before taking them outside at your house, I would make sure that your dog is either on a leash, the yard fence is closed, or their recall is good with me. Most importantly, I want to make sure that in a new situation and with someone new in their home, they somehow do not get loose.
“Chelsea was kind enough to visit our cat on short notice. She did a great job visiting with Blue, sent us lots of photos, detailed updates, and our cat loved her!! We definitely recommend her :)”
About: I have a lot of experience caring for a dog; I helped my aunt throughout my childhood; as an adult, friends and acquaintances asked me to sit and look after their pet. I know that every pet is individual and I will try to make sure that your dog is happy while he is waiting for his owner :) I’m working full-time, but depends of the day I can be total free if you needed :) we can just speak and see which days and time you needed :) I have a friendly cat who will keep company with another cat if necessary.The cat is neutered and has all the vaccines. She so nice and delicate. I have a lot of toys and snacks for cats, I always take into your requests and wishes for care :)
About: I grew up on a farm and so I handled a wide variety of animals. I’m in nursing school and want a side hustle that I will enjoy doing. I can walk dogs Monday - Friday from 5:30 on. I have my own 2 Fur babies at home. One being a 2 year old boxer and the the other being a 3 year old mix. I know a lot about animals because I grew up with them. I have worked with a vet in Wisconsin a bit too so I know how to look for signs of sickness.
“Kristen was great! She gave our kitties some needed attention and sent us pictures of their cute little faces. We felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands (drop-ins at our house) for three days!”
“Carly took care of Chester for 1 week as drop-in sitter. My cat looks healthy and handsome as ever. I arrive with a chatty cat greeting me and I get it. I will book Carly again in the future because she not only took care of my cat’s needs (spoiled-prince) but she also respected my place and she is trustworthy and professional.”
“Hailey did amazing the pups were happy and we were happy. We only cut our trip short because I got sick but we will definitely be using her again. Thank you Hailey for taking care of Luna and Kane.”
“Jackie is awesome! She did an amazing job taking care of our girl while we were away and then some! She is friendly, communicative, flexible and considerate. We would love to have her back again and happily recommend her to others!”
“Emily was so wonderful and kind while checking in on our two cats while we were out of town. She was a fabulous communicator and listened to all of the instructions we left her. We would highly recommend Emily to all pet parents! :)”
About: As a long time lover of animals and haver of pets, I ensure to provide the same care to the pets I care for that I would expect my own pets to receive. Going out of town can be stressful leaving fur babies at home, but it’s important the care of your pets is not a concern or worry! I work a full time job, 7-4 M-F, but when dog sitting I do my best to ensure the dog is walked before I leave, during lunch if my schedule permits it, and an extra long walk in the afternoon. I like to make sure the pets have a little piece of home when visiting my apartment, so bringing toys, blankets, things like that are always a plus! I am always sure to take them on a walk to familiarize themselves with the area and also let them have some time alone in my space to get to know it. When they are at home, I am very cautious to make sure the pets are not threatened by me, and make sure to act normal as their owners would!!
“Christine was absolutely wonderful. She took such good care of our little guy. He was comfortable and so happy. She sent daily pics and check-ins. Would book her every time. 10/10 experience, with peace of mind while we were away!”
“Erika was great! She was super accommodative and took care of our cats during the drop in visits. We also got a lot of cute photos of the cats while we were traveling. Highly recommend her if you're looking for a pet sitter !”
“Jen was great with our cats! She gave my diabetic cat his insulin shots and wrote great report cards after every visit. I appreciated her attentiveness to my older cat; I had peace of mind that he was left in reliable, caring hands while I was out of town.”

Rachael was incredible, helped us with a last minute booking when other arrangements fell through. She was thorough, friendly, and took great care of our boy. She sent us plenty of pictures of the visit and he looked so happy with her. We would love to have her back anytime, highly recommend!
I can’t say enough good things about Hailey. She is consistently reliable, incredibly kind, and genuinely invested in the well being of my two dogs. They absolutely love her! She’s great with communication, pays attention to the little details, and always makes sure the girls get the care, exercise and affection they need. It’s such a relief to have someone you can trust completely- Hailey is that person. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sun Prairie stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Sun Prairie choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Sun Prairie with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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 sitter.
