“Yolanda and her family have been so great to work with so far! Yolanda is very responsive, flexible, & respectful of your pet’s needs/requests/concerns. I will be utilizing her services again 🙂”
“Thank you so much to Kim! Kim was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog Mushi today. She's very friendly and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our lab mix rescue with her while we enjoyed the Milwaukee Zoo. She walked Mushi and also gave us updates as well as pictures. I highly recommend her to watch your dog.”

“This was my first pet sitting experience, and my first time using Rover. Vicki was awesome and took great care of little Gracie. Her house was neat, and a good place for my little dog to hang out for the day.”


“Having our dog stay with MJ has been a great experience! We recently adopted a dog with fairly severe separation anxiety, and I'm not sure how we would have made it through the first months without having someone like MJ to watch her during the day while we work on alone time training. He's always very communicative and flexible, and our dog just loves him. You couldn't ask for a better dog sitter!”

“My dog Nala loves going to daycare with Dane. He is very flexible and does a great job taking care of Nala. She also really enjoys hanging out with his dogs and having a yard to hang out in for the day. Would recommend Dane 10/10.”

About: I started off taking care of small animals, but then became trained as a kennel attendant and enrichment specialist in my growing career in animal care. I wanted to offer more to my local community with the current skills I have, along with learn and grow with every pet and parent! I’m aware of how dogs communicate with each other with body language and have been trained to break apart a fight, even before a fight could start.

“Jan provides excellent care of Hercules. I get photo updates throughout his stay and messages as necessary. Herc is always exhausted and ready for a nap after a full day of play.”


About: I’m an animal lover, one of my most delicate soft spots. I have cared for and fostered many animals: dogs, cats, aquatic animals, reptiles, and furry friends (bunnies, hamsters, etc). I believ pets are like family. They deserve attention, cuddles, good food, play time and lots of love. I believe in calm, patient and gentle pet care. I also respect the boundaries of any pet, ensuring they always feel safe and comfortable. At home, I currently have 2 lovely cats, a bearded dragon (reptile), 2 geckos, 4 snakes and a cute mouse. I work from home so I’ll always have time to play, feed and love on your pet babies. I’m always flexible with their needs (bathroom breaks, medication, shyness) to make sure they are always comfortable. If my schedule or availability changes, I always send out updates right away. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space for pets to roam, play and toilet if needed. I have a collection of toys and stimulating goodies that they may find of interest. Pets are always welcome to bring their own items. My 2 lovely cats are usually shy and more of the watching type, so they won’t bother your pets but will surly admire them from their cat trees. All activities and toileting are supervised. There is no smoking of any kind in my home or pet areas.
“Perseus and Dereck were great hosts to Spider. They took him in last minute. They provided photos during his short stay. I will definitely have them watch our dogs again. They deserve 10 stars!!”
About: Hi there! We are lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience and two sweet pit bulls of my own. Our home is shared with my playful and loving 3-year-old boy and my silly, affectionate 1-year-old girl, who both love making new friends. We've spent many years in responsible dog breeding, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, socialization, and individual needs. Whether your pup is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, We are confident and comfortable caring for all personalities, ages, and breeds. With me, your pets will be treated like part of the family — plenty of love, attention, structure, and fun. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive environment where every dog feels at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! --- If you want, I can also tailor it to a specific service (boarding, drop-ins, walks, etc.) or adjust the tone to be more professional, playful, or concise. I offer flexible scheduling for pet boarding thanks to my role with a property management company, which allows me to be home often and adjust my availability as needed. This flexibility helps me give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout their stay. For everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly require all pets to have their own crate during their stay. Crates provide a secure, familiar space for your dog to rest and relax, especially during downtime or when we briefly step out. Their safety and well-being are always our top priority. Also provide your pet with their favorite food/treats for their stay. We are also able to provide that for an additional fee.
About: I'd love to hang out with your dog on a walk, while I work from home (or your home!), or play with toys during a drop in check in. I work from home so I can be flexible on potty breaks. I work from home, so happy to give your pup potty breaks, walks, and play time on a flexible schedule. I'm available for morning walks also! I have two friendly small dogs, but can keep them separate if you prefer. I will keep your pup in my office with me while I work, and that will be their dedicated space. They are welcome to lay on a big dog bed or my guest bed with me while I work. They also will have access to the sun room and can watch all the rabbits and squirrels in our back yard. If you are comfortable with them being around my dogs we can also let them have run of my house while I'm at home. Your dog can be kept in a separate room by themselves with a bed and water bowl if I need to step away for a minute or they are welcome to stay in my office and lounge on the bed. I can also crate small <20 lb dogs if you prefer. For larger dogs, a crate will need to be provided. For small or older dogs, we have a small fenced yard (about 200 sq ft, fence about 3.5 ft high).
About: I've had dogs most of my life. My Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is 3 years old and loves a friend. I have an 11 year old daughter that will also provide lots of love. Your dog won't just be boarded, they'll become a part of the family. No kennels necessary, they can sleep with me! I'm a stay at home mom. I love taking my dog out for walks around my quiet, dog friendly neighborhood. I'm home almost all the time. I'd love another doggy friend to visit us! I have tie outs for the dogs when they'd like fresh air. We go on walks as needed....and we can walk more if your dog loves it like mine does!
“Kristine was GREAT! She was very flexible since our schedule was very fluid. She accommodated us and Quincy loved being there. THANK YOU Kristine!! When we are in the area, we will use Kristine again. Rover always provides great doggie day care”

“If we could give her 10 stars we would! She made our visit to Milwaukee so much easier. We were nervous leaving Otis while we enjoyed our day out. Michelle assured us he would be fine playing with the other dogs and she was right! She sent pictures of Otis playing and you could tell he was happy and having fun. He also slept very well that night! We appreciate her watching Otis. We couldn’t be more happier of how his care was!”

“Adrienne was Roo’s best friend for a day, and was everything I was looking for and more. Roo had a day full of adventures, and Adrienne sent us plenty of photos! We will definitely be return customers. Highly recommended!!”
