“Madi and Anthony took great care of our dog during her boarding/overnight visit. They took great care to get to know us and her prior to her stay and provided us with ample info about their home environment so we could set our Lucy up for a successful visit. They provided regular updates with pictures and videos and we could tell she was comfortable and enjoying her time under their care. Our dog prefers a home environment over a boarding facility and Madi and Anthony’s home was the perfect place for her to relax while we were away.”
“Our dog Chewy was excited to meet Korah the very first time and every time she saw her. Korah is enthusiastic and energetic. She sent pictures & notes every day of how well Chewy did each day. Her notes were reassuring that Chewy was eating, drinking and happy playing with his new friends. It was a great experience for Chewy. We felt confident that Chewy was receiving great care. We will definitely have Korah care for Chewy the next time we are gone.”
“Our pup is turning 3 in June and we had never left her with anyone. We found Kessia and felt an instant connection. She confidently, but gently assured our pup and us that there was nothing to worry about, and her two pups instantly welcomed ours in playful banter. We have no concerns in leaving our pup with Kessia.”
“Elizabeth communicated very well with us and was flexible and we really enjoyed the photos and updates while we were out of town. We would highly recommend Elizabeth and use her in the future!”
“Jacob took the best care of our golden retriever, Nala, while we were gone for 8 days for our destination wedding! She loved playing in his fenced in backyard (which we saw in pictures he sent us). It was so nice leaving her knowing that Jacob works from home and would give her all of the attention outside of his working day (although I’m sure Nala tried to distract him during work too LOL). Couldn’t recommend anyone better to take care of your loved pet!!”
“Carissa was a great Care provider for my dog Nyx. Nyx was happy and healthy going in and the same coming out. Carissa shared photos throughout the boarding time that showed how much fun Nyx had while spending time with Carissa at her house. I would recommend Carissa to anyone looking for boarding or any dog care they need 💚💚”
“Kim was very kind to accommodate a short notice visit. She even fit in a meet and greet right away which I really appreciated. She was super responsive and sent lots of updates. Drop off and pick up times were flexible and she was right on time. Our dog came home happy, I couldn't ask for a better experience.”
“Our dog Zero had such a good time at Amanda's, we actually felt guilty picking him up! Amanda shared regular updates and photos, and, while she maintained Zero's normal routine of walks, meals, and sleep, the extra play and snuggle time the family gave Zero clearly made him one content, tuckered out pup. We would definitely bring Zero to Amanda's for boarding again in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Bailey! 😄 I’ve had pets my whole life (30+ years) and have experience caring for dogs with extra needs, including daily insulin and neurological conditions. I currently have 2 cats, Mochi & Boba, and a dog, Charlie. Charlie loves making new doggie friends and would be happy to join on walks/drop ins if your dog is friendly, but no worries if they prefer solo time! I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and breeds. Whether it’s a walk, a trip to the park, or just some extra love and attention, I’m happy to give your pet the care they need! ❤️ I’m currently working part time so I’m pretty flexible! I’m most flexible on the weekends & evenings, but I’m happy to work with your schedule and find a time that works best for you & your pet. I’ll come to your home to check on, care for, and love on your fur babies! I will make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime while you’re away.
About: Having had pets all my life, I really understand how special dogs and cats are. I promise to treat your furry family member with the same care, respect, and love that they would expect at home. I have a flexible schedule and would like to fill my free time. Although I plan to go back to school in January, I’ll still be available for pet sitting. I have a fenced yard where your pup can play freely, and a cozy, smoke-free home perfect for snuggles. Currently, I don't have any pets in my home, and I'm preparing my space to be comfortable, warm, and welcoming for stays.
“Katie was wonderful with Toby! She watched him last minute for us so we could go on a trip. She sent pictures and was super responsive! I would highly recommend and use her again!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and honestly can’t remember a time when I wasn’t surrounded by pets. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I regularly dog sit for friends and family, and I genuinely love it. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I show up with patience, energy, and a lot of love. I take pet care seriously, but I also truly enjoy it. Being around animals is my happy place. I probably like them more than humans, but I’ll let your pet be the judge of that. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m typically home and have a flexible schedule. I’m usually out for a couple hours most days, but otherwise I’m around and able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. On weekends I’m also fairly flexible and either at home or doing low-key activities, so I can adjust easily to the needs of each pet. I enjoy making pet care a consistent part of my routine and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I provide calm, attentive care based on each pet’s needs and comfort level. In my home, I keep things very relaxed with lots of supervision, cuddle time, potty breaks, playtime, and regular outdoor walks on a leash. I also make sure pets are fed on schedule and always have fresh water. In a client’s home, I prefer to focus on walks and potty breaks or quick check-ins depending on what’s needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while sticking closely to their normal routine.
“Tiffany watched our two dogs while we were away on a trip. One dog is old and the other is full of energy. She is amazing and was very loving to our dogs. She sent me pictures and videos daily. I highly recommend her and will hopefully use her service again!”

Maddie was an amazing sitter for our dog - I would recommend her to anyone and we will be booking with her again when we need care! She was very communicative, friendly, and clearly has created a safe space for dogs that stay with her. Again, I would highly recommend her services.
We left Maggie with Kessia for her 1st, 2 night stay over. She loves to have stay overs and play time with Trudy and Gunther. She gets excited when we tell her we're going to their house. And the transition home again is always good. Sometimes she'll display a new fun behavior, like a special way to sit for treats, slightly different than what she's done in the past. It's fun to see her grow.
this is the second time they’ve watched my puppy and it’s been an amazing experience both times! so many updates and pictures! my puppy is so happy to visit them! 1000% recommend them, so happy i found someone who takes such great care when i have to leave my puppy for a few days!
Our pup is turning 3 in June and we had never left her with anyone. We found Kessia and felt an instant connection. She confidently, but gently assured our pup and us that there was nothing to worry about, and her two pups instantly welcomed ours in playful banter. We have no concerns in leaving our pup with Kessia.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Truax home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Truax.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Truax sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
