“Jolie is great. Good communication and goes above and beyond to spend quality time with our two large dogs. Very happy, will book again if possible.”


“Katie was fantastic with my dog, who really seemed to take to her and wasn't anxious as he sometimes can be in new settings with new people. Katie sent frequent updates and photos, always seemed to have my dog's best interests in mind and she quickly adjusted to some unavoidable last-minute changes in the booking. She really helped me out in a challenging situation, and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”


“Louisa always leaves my home as neat and clean as she found it, and takes good care of my cat, who is pretty demanding of attention. She does a great job of communicating and gives just the right amount of updates and pictures. This is the second time I have used Louisa for cat-sitting and I would definitely use her again!”


“Kaitlyn has been so patient with my anxious dog! I feel so good leaving him in her care because I know he'll be well taken care of and allowed to adjust at his own pace. She always leaves my home spotless and communicates promptly when I reach out. Highly recommend!”


“Salem did a great job taking care of my two dogs. They stayed over at my house (cared for the dogs in my home while I was gone multiple days) and left things in good shape. They are super responsive, and sent me lots of photos and updates so I could see how everything was going. I would definitely recommend them!!”


“Brenda was amazing!!! She took great care of our house and our cats. Sent pictures and updates, and left the house cleaner than she found it. 😁 We needed last minute help, and she was so flexible and accommodating! I would not hesitate to hire her again!”


“Hannah was wonderful to work with! I have a very anxious dog who doesn’t like new people, but Hannah knew how to handle her. She was very patient with her and they ended up getting along well. Hannah was also very responsive and communicative. I would definitely trust her to sit my dog in the future!”


“Stephanie was great with my puppy Apollo, very attentive, cleaned up messes when he had accidents. She kept him occupied and played with him lots so he wasn’t too energized when we got home from work after being in the cage most of the day!”


“Natalee was phenomenal with Remora! Consistent updates, cute pics of my cat, and very reliable with scheduling and coordination. Natalee took great notes to make sure Remora was cared for the best as could be. Thank you!!”


“Robert was a great sitter, to the point where I immediately booked him for another day when I need to be out of town. He doted on my dog, played with her, and made sure to keep me updated day-to-day. I felt very confident leaving Gemma with him.”


“Seanna was amazing! She took such good care of my house and my cats. She sent lots of messages and pictures to let us know how everyone was doing. I would not hesitate to ask for her help in the future!”


“Samantha is a very good worker. She is very responsable and she is always on time. She took care of Rokko very well and Rokko was very happy since the first moment. We appreciated her work very much.”


“We feel so lucky to have found Travis - he is so responsible, conscientious, and fantastic with our dog. We have had him sit for us a few times now and will continue to request his services as often as possible! Our house gives him two thumbs, and two paws up!”


About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life but have professionally done in the past 6 years! I love spending time around animals and I also stay hyper vigilant if there’s any issues going on! I am currently working in sales where I spend all day in Costco, so I'm looking for a way to get outside and make a new community of friends, and get some walk and play time in with a furry friend! Always more than happy to make time for your pet! I have a cat named Theo and he gets fed on a schedule three times a day, which seems to the perfect mix. I like to keep pets on a schedule and active so that they’re getting all the enrichment and care that they need! If there’s not a fenced in yard, I’m happy to go for a walk!

“Drew is terrific. Or flight home was delayed and caused us to miss our connection… would’ve been sick with worry but Drew cared for our pup and stayed an extra night. Returned to a happy dog and clean home. So happy!”


“Vanessa was great! My dog loved her. Very communicative and goes the extra mile. I will definitely book her again.”


“Lauren and Nia were great with our pets and us! This was our first time using pet sitters and they really helped put us at ease through the process. With picture and video updates we knew our dogs and cats were having a good time and being well cared for. Highly recommend using them!”


“Jordyn is an incredibly responsible and patient pet sitter! During our three-day trip, she provided timely updates every day, keeping us informed about our dog’s activities. Our pup absolutely adores her—they got along so well! Our whole family truly appreciates Jordyn’s wonderful care and highly recommend her services. Thank you, Jordyn!”



About: I love dogs and animals - they really are the best! I have owned three for many years, raising two from being puppies, and addressing challenging behavior with an older doggo, in addition to fostering multiple rescue dogs. I recently moved to WI, and my pets stayed home with my partner for now, and miss my furry companions and want to provide love and care for yours while I’m here! I am happy to work with you on what’s best, whether that is house sitting, boarding, or simply letting your animals out on walks or to go potty. Let’s chat! I currently work from home and have a remote job, so can provide your dog with any needs or attention that makes sense based on their schedule. I have some in-person meetings that occur throughout the week, and am generally around on the weekends regularly. If planning on boarding or daycare, my apartment is very dog-friendly, with many residents having pets and there are plenty of amenities available, whether walking around the neighborhood on leash or playing in the apartment’s fenced in dog run, that will give your pet what it needs. I can easily crate, take out for potty breaks, etc. I am also mindful of dog reactivity regardless of my own or neighbor’s dogs.

“I have known Ashley for over 5 years. She is one of the most responsible person I know. She used to have a dog, and I have seen how much love and care she gave him. She is currently a cat mom that loves to spoil him with affection and love. Ashley loves the outdoors, so I have no doubt in my mind that she will be an excellent candidate to walk all the precious puppies in the neighborhood! She also has an experience working at a vet clinic, so she has a eye for detail, and experience to understand the pets needs. I would trust her with all of my own pets!”

He's watched my dogs consistently and has treated them like his own. It's no wonder that all dogs go right to him at new places. I promise you will be at ease with Scott watching your furry baby.”

Tenney-Lapham pet parents share their Rover experiences
Bee did an awesome job with Hank! 10/10 - on time, clean and helpful. We have a long list of to dos with our son, long walks/ specific diet and she delivers! So grateful to have found her!

Lauren and Nia took fantastic care of our young puppy and older dog. Great walks and backyard play with plenty of cute pictures shared. Stayed at our house to keep the dogs comfy at home and they left the house looking great. Highly recommend!

Natalee is a highly recommend in my books! She was very detailed in her notes on how to take care of my dogs. She kept me updated on every walk and playtime which I loved. She offered to water my plants for me while I was away which no other dog sitters have ever offered. She really asked the right questions in her video chat (which sadly no other dog sitter has done either). Natalee is just really the whole package.

Josh was great! He was responsive to our needs. Athena was very at ease with him and he took her on a couple of runs. We will definitely use Josh the next time we leave town!

Keira was great! She stayed with our cat for a day and overnight and we will definitely be reaching out to her when we need help again

OMGoodness, GRACE! Please trust us when we say that Grace is truly the sweetest sitter who did an amazing job of balancing doing her online school work and giving such loving attention to our two dogs. Our little dog - who is usually very suspect of / shy around new people - instantly loved her (which seriously never happens!) and she figured out ways to help calm our old anxious dog (by going on a sniffy walk and by lovingly letting her basically paw her face off). Grace came for a quick meet and greet the day before the sit, which made everyone feel much more at ease, and that was very generous of her time. During the sit, we had some unexpected circumstances arise, and Grace was more than willing to roll with the punches and adjust parameters and timing of the sit, etc. We will most definitely be asking for Grace to be a sitter for us in the future… And you will be extremely happy to do the same, no questions asked :)

Julia was absolutely amazing, I do not have enough positive things to say! She was patient and understanding with my dog who’s a retired breeder and still learning the way of being a pet. She kept my apartment clean and respected the home! I definitely recommend her for her responsiveness and kindness! 🤎

Brenda was amazing!!! She took great care of our house and our cats. Sent pictures and updates, and left the house cleaner than she found it. 😁 We needed last minute help, and she was so flexible and accommodating! I would not hesitate to hire her again!

Our anxious dog warmed right up on Maddie’s repeat visit! It is such a relief to get home with your dogs completely at ease. We are fortunate to have a reliable, communicative, and overall great caretaker for our pack. 🐾

Katie was fantastic. So reliable, lots of photos and pupdates, and the house was in great shape when she left. Our pup was clearly well cared for and content / calm when we returned.

Samantha is a very good worker. She is very responsable and she is always on time. She took care of Rokko very well and Rokko was very happy since the first moment. We appreciated her work very much.

Coral was great! We felt totally comfortable leaving our dog with her at our house for a long weekend. She checked in when she got to our house, as requested, and sent a couple photos during her time with our dog. Everything went smoothly. We'd happily have her back!

Thank you, Will! You took such great care of Rubes. I recommend Will to anyone that is looking for pet care. He did an excellent job with our dog while we were away for a long weekend. Thank you again, Will!

Annie is one of Ollie's favorite sitters! She is so kind and communicated well throughout the stay. She takes great care of Ollie and the apartment, leaving things better than she finds them. Highly recommend Annie!

Emily is a great communicator. Our girls really like her. Every stay seems to go smoothly. We highly recommend her. Thank you so much Emily!

Jordan took very good care of our pets and our house, even washed the bedding when Odara peed the bed. She’s also very responsive in communication. Will look to work with her again!

Sophie is one of our go-to sitters, and we always feel so comfortable knowing our dog Charlie is in her hands while we're away. Sophie is responsive, professional, responsible, and, most importantly, she truly loves Charlie and Charlie loves her back. Very grateful to have Sophie on our team!

Tara has watched our pets multiple times now and we could not be happier with the care she provides! We have three old/ special needs pets and Tara is so patient with them. She not only takes amazing care of our pets, but she also sends great pictures. We always come back to happy pets and a clean home.
Jordyn is an incredibly responsible and patient pet sitter! During our three-day trip, she provided timely updates every day, keeping us informed about our dog’s activities. Our pup absolutely adores her—they got along so well! Our whole family truly appreciates Jordyn’s wonderful care and highly recommend her services. Thank you, Jordyn!
