It was a convenient option that gave us peace of mind and flexibility with limited pet friendly lodging options!”

“It was my first time ever using rover so I was nervous of course because this is my child we are talking about. But, Pamela was so so kind and extremely helpful through the whole process. She was more than accommodating for us and while baby sitting our pup she was updating me with pictures and did walks frequently. When I saw my pup to pick her up she was so happy and looked so comfortable and that put my heart at ease. We will MOST DEFINITELY be using Pamela again!!!!”
“Kim was great with Chase! He was so in love with her 6yr old son, I was informed they loved on each other all weekend ☺️.

Would highly recommended her and Penny, I will definitely be back if I ever need a sitter again!!”

“Couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my two aussiedoodles for the week. Christina was so caring and very professional. I was able to book on short notice and pickup and drop off when it worked for me. She treated my pups like they were hers and sent pictures of them going to the park, playing basketball, and cuddling up with her. I’m so grateful for such an amazing sitter that truly has a passion for caring for animals.”

“Ben was kind enough to sit for us on very short notice! Great communication and wonderful service. I could not be more grateful for the kindness to us and our dog Ruby, and I would highly reccommend Ben to others looking for someone to watch their fur babies.”
About: My whole life I have always preferred animals over humans so as an adult my goal has been to turn it into my profession. I have cared for all kinds of animals from bugs to sheep, the least being livestock but i would love to learn more and better my skills in every way I can. With animals I am always down for whatever can or will come my way. In the most recent years I have been doing a lot of work with the pups that are a little extra spicy✨ after finding my own dog in a corn field and her ending up with reactivity and aggression, it really opened my mind to not just be a dog lover but someone who understands dog behavior to be able to keep them happy☺️ Unless I am out of town(rarely happens) I can almost always make it work! Even if it’s adding an xtra visit to make sure your baby gets everything they need🫶🏻 I care for every animal like I would my own babies. I like to keep things as close to normal for them as possible so never feel like you are telling me too much!
About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. From reptiles, felines, and mixed breed pups, to Pit Bulls and German Shepherds. I love them all 🫶🏾 I work from home for a minimal contact tech company. After my little ones leave for school at 8:30 AM, my schedule is completely flexible. We miss having fur babies around and will treat them as part of our family. I have mild mannered boys 8 and 6 that love nature and animals.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was young. My daughter and I watched pet from when she was 13 till she went to college. I have experience with my own pets puppies through senior. I’m currently retired and working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. I can do drop ins too. I love being around animals and do some snuggles too. I will do house sitting and drop ins. My dogs are treated like our kids. Will walk, play, snuggle and anything else they need. ❤️
“Lindsay took care of our little guy for 10 days and he was so well cared for. This is our first time using rover or leaving our dog with anyone outside of family. I cannot begin to tell you how pleased we are with the love and care he received ? He had friends (other dogs), a huge fenced yard and lots of love while we enjoyed our vacation. We received regular photos and communication about him while we were gone. We will definitely be back…highly recommend Lindsay and her son!!”
“She was wonderful with Radar! Had no problems, walks went well, even got pictures of his stay. She kept us up to date on how he was doing on his stay. We did not have worry one bit. We are definitely using her again for future stays for Radar. Highly recommend her!”
“I knew the moment we met her that we had found our place! My Sam was at home the minute he walked in! Cheyenne is friendly, professional, and very thoughtful! She sent us pictures throughout the day so that we could enjoy seeing our boy have fun!”

“Mary Ann did a great job for our first time with Rover. She was reliable, timely and did a great job with our cat, Pepe. Loved the pictures, the updates and overall, she filled all of our needs and expectations. So glad we found her!”
About: I’ve had pets in the home my entire life; cats, dogs, fish, hamsters and Guinea pigs. I have been the proud owner of a pit bull, pit bull mix, boxer, lab and a St Bernard. I currently have a German Shepherd, Zeus, that is my whole heart. My son and I with help of tons of videos and research have taught our boy 20+ commands/words. I run/walk/hike with him 3-4 times a week in snow/rain/cold/humidity. We actively play and train daily. I put every effort into giving my fur babies the best life possible. I mean, we chose them, they didn’t choose us. I have owned short and long haired cats. I am familiar with the daily grooming for long haired felines. I currently am a cat mom also to a short and long haired. I am very familiar with kitten and puppy care as well. I have a full time job Monday through Friday. I am available week days after 3:30 and all day on Saturday, Sunday and major holidays. I will follow the instructions given to me for drop ins. I certainly wouldn’t put your pet in harms way playing indoors/outdoors or on a walk.
“My kitty, Sedona, is super friendly anyways but it was simply amazing how fast she took to Heather. It instantly eased my worries about having to be gone so long. Will be using Heather again!”
“Ben was great taking care of our cat with his medications and visits while we were gone for the week! Our cat was in a great mood when we returned and we relaxed while out of town know he was taken care of! Would definitely like to use his services again!”
“My dog Sadie, loved Andrew from the minute she met him, and she's not one to fall in love so easily. Andrew did drop ins for me and i couldn't of been happier with how well he treated Sadie. She even conned him into taking her for walks. I will definately be booking Andrew again in the future. Its such a relief to find someone you can trust.”
“We absolutely love Madison, she is so sweet and attentive to our boy and we trust her with him so much! Her updates are very detailed and we get so many wonderful pictures (our kitty loves to show her his tongue). Would recommend to anyone, the peace of mind we get is so worth it.”

“My dog is older and can at times be grumpy adjusting to new situations. She was begging to get out of the car after day 1 and is obsessed with her doggy daycare. Can’t recommend enough!”
“We were in town for work. Clyde spent the day with Samantha and her kids and dogs and he was so tired when I picked him up. It was exactly what we needed for Clyde. Samantha was very nice and communicated well with us. She took good care of our dog so we can enjoy some of our time while here for work. Samantha has a fenced in yard which made me feel safe with Clyde as he is a runner. Haha”
“He did a great job with Coco. Our first time at Nate's went smoothly. Coco had a good time playing with the other dogs and in the fenced backyard. Thank you for taking good care of him.”
“I am so happy I left my babies with Holly, she took such good care of my girls! 🐶🐶. She sent me videos and pictures as updates and was so accommodating with my schedule!”
About: First off I have owned dogs/cats since I was 8 and I’m a huge pet lover! I have 2 dogs and a cat which are all very loving and well socialized with all types of pets and people! My husband and I have been happily married since 2018 and have 2 children. I am a stay at home wife and mom and love to spoil all fur babies and give them lots of lovings. I’m a big walker and love a good game of fetch, tug of war, frisbee, or just running around with everyone! I have a reliable car so I’m offering at home sitting where I’ll take your pet out every hour if needed and play/take them on walks. I’m also available to just stop by to walk/play with your pet for any desired amount of time. I am completely open and offering doggy day camp where we will play, go for walks, and socialize with other pets and people. My biggest hit is overnight care so if you go on vacation, need a couple nights/days to yourself, emergencies... I’m available to keep your fur baby over night and for long periods of time no matter the circumstance. I do not require your pet be crate trained if I’m sitting at my house or during doggy day camp but if they stay over night I require they be crate trained or atleast potty trained. I’m completely open to sitting/caring for cats or other pets you may have except for reptiles. While your pets are with me I will be working on training them and perfecting manners with consistent treats and praising for good behavior. I’m very patient and love working with animals! I’m extremely flexible and don’t need much notice for thoes times you’re in a pinch! If you choose to leave your pet with me then I guarantee your pet will be well loved and treated with much respect and gentleness!! I am currently a stay at home mom and will have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention and care they need. We live in a smoke free environment and have 2 dogs and a cat for your kiddos to play with. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I respect your personal space while taking care of your fur baby!
“I’ve taken Lexi over twice for day care with Pamela and we will definitely rebook. She takes her for a nice long walk in the morning and my doggo seems so happy and excited to be there, and tired when she comes home again, lol. Thank you Pamela for taking such good care of my Lexi!”
“This is the first chance I've had to leave a good rating for Lindsay. 5 stars are in order. So much appreciate Lindsay's flexibility and understanding as we had some car trouble that day. I am very much looking forward to future stays at Lindsay's house for my two fur babies! Thanks again!”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone other than my parents and Shadia was so great! Judy usually takes a minute or two to warm up but was drawn to his energy right away. He was communicative and patient with her. Highly recommend him! Thanks again Shadia, you’re a lifesaver! PS I’m so sorry she pooped in your house!!!”

“I’m thankful that I found Andrew on here! Lady, our rescue has issues with strangers. Andrew and I scheduled several meet & greets along with a trial walk. I was extremely impressed with how gentle and patient he was with her, it seemed like a perfect fit. I went from being completely nervous booking to complete relief after her first walk with him. I definitely recommend him!”

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. I have experience in babysitting children. I also take care of Laya our family pet. I also have previous pet sitting experience in Wisconsin. Iny previous experience in Wisconsin, I have asked owners for written instructions on medications, favorite toys, play schedule, vet contacts as well as inquiring about safe ways to enter the house. I have given the quality care for pets including snuggles, walks, and fun games like fetch with their favorite toys and time at the dog park- if permitted by their parents. I am a substitute teacher. I frequently do half days, I'm doing mostly afternoons at my subbing jobs. I am available in the mornings and at 330-8pm for drop in visits and walks I will ask for written instructions on feeding, rules, any medications, and anything else I should know. I will send pictures and videos of what we are doing-walks, how much your pet has eaten, treats, playtime, and playtime.
“Madison is fantastic, attentive, and goes the extra mile!! Cleo LOVES walks with Madie and her tail wags as soon as she sees her. She has been so reliable and consistent with her help and we appreciate her SO MUCH!!”
About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. As a child, I had pet sheep, rabbits, dogs, cats, and cows. As an adult, I have always had cats. My 20 year old long hair cat just passed away in January. It was heartbreaking. I miss him dearly. We loved our guy so much. In his last 5 yrs, I spent many hours catering to his elderly issues. Medications and night yowling were issues that I happily took care of as he lived out his twilight years. I have a soft spot for all animals as they go through all stages of life :) I work from home and set my own hours, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am open to many kinds of arrangements- one time sitting, a weekly routine, daily walks, weekends, etc. I am extremely fortunate to have a flexible schedule. My teen daughter and I live in a large 4 bedroom home, so we have tons of space to accommodate furry friends who need company. We do not have a fenced in yard, but our neighborhood is great for long walks. Our neighborhood has trails through the woods and a home owner’s association that maintains the trails. We have lots of fun walking the trails. I am an avid jogger/walker. I go out everyday, regardless of the weather. I have a very active lifestyle! We recently adopted a cat, but he stays in his own area on a different level of the house. He has claimed my daughter as his and lives in her room. When dogs come to stay with us, he typically stays in his room & pups never see him, although he has made friends with some of our regularly visiting pups 😊 I have a very flexible work schedule. When I do have to be away from home for work, I am gone about 2-3 hrs at a time. My daughter is at home often and also helps with pups. She is great with animals! We both like to take frequent walks throughout the day! In my home, I have a large open floor plan with tons of windows. During the day, I like to have pups next to me in my office, but some like to lay in prime viewing area of all the windows.
