Thomas & Emily are the best pet sitters ever. The love & attention given to Abbey was exceptional. Abbey loved playing with Monster & she was treated like their own which made it so much easier to be away. We loved the updates, photos & video. Meds were also given morning & night. We highly recommend Thomas & Emily. We will definitely use them again. Thank you both so much.

Tanya was amazing with Winston! He can be a very nervous boy, but he felt completely comfortable with Tanya and her family. We also had the pleasure of booking at the same time as Winston’s cousin, Gus, so the two of them got to play together the entire time we were away. 😜 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Winston was happy, relaxed, and having the best time!

I feel like we have found a diamond in the rough. Jacqueline, Kris and Bella are so kind and truly are dog lovers. We received updates with pictures during Piper's stay. Their fenced in yard was perfect for Piper to run and sniff. Cannot say enough positive remarks regarding the excellent care Piper received. We highly recommend Jacqueline's family for daycare or boarding, and will be boarding again in the future!

Brandi and her family are awesome! My husband & I went on a 5-day trip and needed care for our two dogs, about 70 lbs each. The initial meet-and-greet went well and we knew they would be in good hands. Our bloodhound/basset hound mix has occasional seizures (once per 3-6 months) and Brandi was comfortable with that, thankfully. Brandi has a big fenced backyard where the dogs worked out their energy. Daily photos and updates made us confident that our boys were happy and enjoying their stay. Our pups actually slept in bed with Brandi like they do at home! Ha! We will definitely be contacting Brandi again and absolutely recommend her!

(He even learned some German while there! :-) ) Chris sent us a few photos and video to make us feel relaxed that they were all having a great time. We highly recommend Chris and Dan, they offer a great loving, fun environment (and fenced yard!). Will call them 1st next time we ever need Rover services. SOOOOO much better than going to a kennel!

This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sarah accommodated our last-minute request to watch our 3-month-old puppy for two days. Rip and Mayla were so friendly and playful when we stopped by for a meet and greet. And Sarah's obvious expertise and calm demeanor made it clear that this was a good fit for us. She was always quick with responses, sent daily updates with several pictures spanning the course of the day, and gave a very thorough rundown of how our puppy did his entire time there when we arrived to pick him up. It was clear that she had his best interests at heart. And any time we need a puppy sitter, she will be the first person we contact. 10/10 Highly recommend.

About: I've been a dog owner for as long as I can remember. I currently have one nine year old Chihuahua mix on seizure medicine twice a day. We have a fenced in yard with a chain link fence perfect for letting your dog run around. I am usually up by 5am to go for a run or cycle. I work from home regularly so I can be flexible with letting the dogs out. I have a fenced in yard with one friendly dog of my own to keep your dog company. I have cameras in the home to keep an eye on the pups if I do need to run out.

She came back home happy and not stressed out like she would after getting kenneled. So glad we were able to use her services. We highly recommend!

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was really young. Other than always having a dog of my own, I’ve taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors. This past year has really been the first time I’ve been without a pet. My daughter and I have a lot of love and attention to give any furry friend. I have early mornings and late afternoon-evening open Monday-Friday open and most weekends are completely open. Holiday time will have more availability with my Thanksgiving and winter break. I have a pretty big yard and a quiet neighborhood perfect for taking walks. I plan to do my best to make sure your pet feels as at home as possible when in my care.

About: I have had dogs for over 25 years now, both small and large breeds. I also have experience giving them medications when needed. I currently have 2 doodles and a pitbull mix at home. I work full-time but I have a flexible schedule and can work remotely when needed. As long as I have some notice, I can accommodate most schedules without any issues. I'm dependable and love dog cuddles! I will make sure all of their needs are met and provide play and love! If they have any special needs I am more than capable of handling that with care as well.

I cannot say enough about Amanda’s exceptional care for my four cats. Over the years, I’ve hired many pet sitters, and she is by far the best I’ve ever had. Her attentiveness and compassion made it so much easier for me to be away, giving me true peace of mind. Not only did she provide outstanding care for my cats, but she also went above and beyond by feeding the stray animals who rely on me for daily meals, as well as keeping my backyard squirrels and birds well-fed. She even collected my mail and kept in regular contact with updates, reassuring words, and adorable photos. Amanda is simply the BEST—reliable, thoughtful, and truly devoted. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Marla was amazing and was very attentive to our cats needs. She was very communicative and sent wonderful photos daily. When we arrived home, it was the first time our cat wasn’t angry at our absence. She actually let me hold and pet her, then played with her toys rather than ignore us. I would definitely refer Marla as a stay in cat sitter.

About: Growing up I lived in the country with cows, horses and chickens next door. We always had many cats and dogs because we had the space and they just knew we would take them in if they didn't have a home. I wish I had the space now to have more animals but since I dont, it would be an honor to take care of yours. My experience with animals would be having a cat that needed shots daily for diabetes, a blind dog, dog that had seizures, taking care of friends and family's pets. Some which needed daily medicine or had a lot of energy : ). I ppreciate the trust they have in me to take care of their fur family members. Each pet, like humans, have their own personality.

About: I work from home, so I am able to walk my own dogs 2-3 miles a day. I know how much they enjoy it and would love to be able to help others out that are not able to walk their pets as much as they would like. I frequently go on walks and runs multiple times a day, so adding a four-legged friend to my walking would be perfect. My work schedule is very flexible so I’m able to move things around as needed. I do not currently care for other pets in my home. I have 3 Siberian Huskies all under the age of 5 so it’s already a full house!

I look forward to meeting your pet(s) so that I can gain more experience. I understand that all dogs are not all the same which is why I would love to get more experience. It would help me learn more about your pet(s) and it’s needs.

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs as well as competition trained dogs. Being crate trained is a must for overnight stays. I do have 1 large crate here but encourage you to bring your pet's crate from home if able. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. I wash all toys and blankets and sanitize all the floors and dishes between every stay.

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life. I’ve cared for animals ranging from mice to horses. I have worked in vet clinics and have done a lot of research on my own time. They are my passion. I currently have the most experience in dogs. I’m actively an apprentice with a local dog trainer to be a positive reinforcement force free trainer. I am also studying canine behavior. I have experience in doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming. I have administered medications ranging from oral medicine to injections (subq and intermuscular). Like I said before, I love em like my own! I am home all day most days. I do have two dogs of my own so they are always outside playing. Pet care is what I do when I wake up to when I go to bed. I’m available most days for play dates, walks, boarding, grooming, and more! I have a large fenced in yard. I also have so so many dog toys. I have two dogs as well so your baby can make friends! I can offer crates when we leave or at night if you prefer! I have plenty of house for them to be in as well, also plenty of people to love on them! Your baby will never be alone!

Let me start off by saying that Ella was absolutely amazing!!! I mean from start to finish she is phenomenal, her energy is amazing and she took care of my dog so so well!! She communicated the entire time and sent pictures and my dog looked replaced and happy! My dog is usually anxious in the car but for some reason when I picked her up she was relaxed and calmed which ensured she was comfortable and is beginning to recognize that I will always come back got her. Ella you are truly an angel and I look forward to future visits

About: I’ve taken care of my sweet 70 lb pit bull for 4 years now in my home with a fully fenced backyard, downstairs dog play area, private room and crate for your dog, and eufy camera access to the private room. My dog has esophageal dysmotility so I understand medically complicated dogs. My home is ideal for a dog that is lower energy and enjoys calm and quiet environments. I work remote so I am home throughout the day other than the occasional doctor appointment. On average when I leave the home, it’s usually only about 2 hours and the max is about 4 hours. I also take my dog to a home groomer every other week so I can coordinate with you to take your dog to my groomer when my dog goes for grooming for an extra cost plus you paying the groomer separately. The most important thing is that your dog and my dog get along and/or are neutral. When I leave for brief periods your dog will be crated in their private room with the door closed and my dog will be loose but without access to your dog. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys! I work fully remote so your dog will be with me at all times (unless I have an appointment or errand to run) either in my office, their own private room with a crate, or in the living room. I typically wake up around 6 am and pet care happens whenever my dog needs so I can do the same for your dog in terms of potty breaks and feeding and play time. I am typically in bed by 8 pm but will get up if needed to take my dog out to the bathroom as well. Safety is my main priority. I require that our dogs get along/are neutral to one another to prevent any sort of altercation. If there ever is an altercation, you would be informed immediately and the dogs can easily be separated for the rest of the day/boarding booking. I have a very quiet and calm home and live in a quiet neighborhood as well. I take breaks during work to get on the couch and spend time with my dog and will do the same for yours! Your dog must be crate trained and will be put in a crate for any time I must leave the home (max 4 hours at a time). Your dog will also have to be either in their crate or in their private room with the door closed while I sleep. Them being able to be in their private room with the door closed while I sleep will be allowed on a case-by-case basis. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high of a safety risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys!

Brandi was amazing! She helped us out on short notice, took great care of our dog, and sent lots of photos and updates throughout the day. Our dog is usually very anxious, but he felt comfortable with her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We felt completely confident leaving him in her care and would happily book with her again.

Jennifer is amazing we have recurring visits for doggy day care and the dogs love going there. She took adorable photos with the witch costumes I sent them with. She even clipped my one dogs nails today. She’s an amazing sitter and your pets will be so well taken care of if they go here. You can’t find a better sitter. Lots of love and lots of care and so many photos and videos. It’s the best solution if your babies need someone to care or they while your away. I can’t say enough great stuff about her.

About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. I house and dog sit for a variety of people based on recommendations. I am very passionate about animals and will always take very good care of them. I am currently only working as a pet sitter. I love pet sitting because I get to meet pet parents and care for a variety of different animals. I am a stay at home mom looking to combine my love for animals with be able to stay at home with my daughter. I own 3 cats and two dogs. I have experience grooming both dogs and cats professionally. I clean the cats litter once a day. There is always water available for all my pets. I provide enrichment exercises throughout the day for my dogs such as lick mats, puzzles, and toys. My dogs also have access to the fenced in back yard as well.

About: I work from home, so I am able to walk my own dogs 2-3 miles a day. I know how much they enjoy it and would love to be able to help others out that are not able to walk their pets as much as they would like. I frequently go on walks and runs multiple times a day, so adding a four-legged friend to my walking would be perfect. My work schedule is very flexible so I’m able to move things around as needed. I do not currently care for other pets in my home. I have 3 Siberian Huskies all under the age of 5 so it’s already a full house!

About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve helped look after dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from high-energy pups to shy seniors who need a gentler touch. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly rely on me because I’m attentive, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with their pets. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved, whether we’re playing, going for walks, or just relaxing together. Your pet will get reliable care and plenty of affection while they’re with me. I have 1 year dog kennel experience that inspired me to become a vet assistant to hopefully start my own commercial business in the future! Thank you for considering me and contributing to my experience it is greatly appreciated and your animals will be treated like my own! I’m in school studying to become a veterinary assistant, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. My class schedule is flexible, giving me lots of availability on weekends and most weekdays. Since animal care is already a big part of my life, I’m able to provide consistent attention, playtime, and reliability for your pets. I do online. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first when im caring for them in your home, follow your feeding, potty, and exercise routine so they feel secure and settled. If you don’t really have a route with pups and are a go with the flow person like I am I can provide, 8-10 potty’s breaks and lots of attention. For safety during walks in my neighborhood, there are no sidewalks so we walk against traffic so we can see oncoming cars with dogs on the right side of me farthest away from the road in grass. In the winter, I follow a cold-weather walking policy for safety: if it’s too cold for me in an t shirt it’s too cold for them! Usually requests winter weather gear like boots and coat but one can be provided(washed after every use with pet safe detergent). (Black puffer and no slip socks.) Night time walking- don’t worry about the days getting darker I’ve got it covered with my reflective gear, flashlight, collar light clips, and more. Thank you for understanding and helping keep your pet safe!

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life! As a dog groomer I know the extent of care and kindness to give our fellow furry family members to make sure they are always happy and well taken care of. There's so much more to it than just fur and fluff, though. It's all about understanding their unique needs and how to communicate with them. By day I'm working for PrimPups Dog Salon! Where by surprise I am grooming dogs! So my life is constantly surrounded by our furry friends! I arrive home most days by 3pm! Weekends I'm free luckily not from dogs, I have two golden retrievers (Simba and Nala) and a chiweenie! (Letty). All of which are the friendliest of pups! On most weekends they are at our local dog park playing with the other pups in town! We are a down to earth and understanding family and would be honored to share our love to others! In our home we have half an acre of land for all the running and playing your dog will need! Fresh water and treats are always at the ready! We love having all the pups hang out together! However if needed we can section out the house for everyones own personal time. Our Goldens love to have friends over and adore playing tug of war. We do crate the pups when we leave the house. So it is preferred for the pups to be crate-trained. In addition our dog room does have a camera so I have constant live footage of your babies.

About: Safety is always my number one priority, and snuggles are a close second. While I don’t consider myself a professional dog trainer, I have a lot of hands-on experience training my own dogs and enjoy doing fun, light basic training with pups who are willing participants.

I work part-time for my family business and have the flexibility to take my work with me anywhere. That means your pet gets plenty of attention and care! I truly love animals and make them a natural part of my daily life, it’s something that brings me a lot of joy and fulfillment I have three playful, friendly, and highly socialized dogs in my home. Crating is available if needed for your pet’s comfort and safety. My yard features a secure 6-foot privacy fence with plenty of space for your dog to run, play, and explore.

About: I graduated in May of 2025 from the Madison Area Technical College Veterinary Technician Program, then passed the VTNE to become a Certified Veterinary Technician. In school we worked with dogs, cats, horses, cows, and lambs. I have had dogs since I was a child, and I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I worked on a farm taking care of horses for about two and a half years from 2020-2022. I've taken care of pets for friends/family for many years as well! I currently work at a vet hospital, though I am out on FMLA. Unfortunately, that means I can only take on pets less than 30 lbs at the moment. If you're looking for someone to take extra care of your pets, please reach out to see if we're a good fit! I'm currently working full time as a certified veterinary technician at a veterinary hospital. I work 40 hours a week with a varying schedule. Generally I work 8 am - 6 pm four days a week (my day off during the week changes each week). I work on Saturday about once per month. My rover clients will be scheduled around that availability. I currently live in an apartment with a cat and will not be able to watch clients' pets in my home. If I am watching pets in the client's home, I will take care of them the way I would take care of mine. I am respectful and conscientious of your personal space and privacy.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. For the past 8 years, I’ve been the proud pet parent of two wonderful dogs who are a big part of my daily routine—I play with them, make sure they get plenty of exercise, feed them nutritious meals, and, most importantly, give them lots of love and attention. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve also volunteered with a local rescue organization, helping homeless puppies find loving homes. I’ve fostered dogs and kittens in need, giving them a safe and nurturing environment while they wait for their forever families. This hands-on experience has taught me how to handle a wide range of temperaments and needs with patience and compassion. I’m available on weekends and most holidays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pup, including visits to your home if needed. During the week, I work a regular 8–5 job, but I make time in my schedule to provide consistent care. I can stop by for potty breaks and walks in the morning before work, around lunchtime (around noon) if needed, and again in the evening after 5 PM. Your dog’s comfort and routine are important to me, and I’m happy to work with you to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need throughout the day. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for any pet—whether it’s in my home or yours. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment with secure spaces where dogs can play, relax, and feel comfortable. I’m always mindful of keeping anything unsafe (like cords, small objects, or toxic foods) out of reach, and I never leave pets unattended in risky situations. When caring for a client’s dog, I follow their routine closely and keep communication open with regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, needs, and boundaries to make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether we’re on a walk, having playtime, or just cuddling, your dog’s well-being is always my focus.

Mari helped us with a drop-in visit with less than a weeks notice. She was great with our dog, who can be nervous of new people. Mari didn’t push our pooch beyond what she wanted to do, and we felt very appreciative knowing she was looking in on her while we were away for the day. I would highly recommend her.

About: I’ve had pets all my life. My family is full of animal lovers and they know they can rely on me if they need someone to care for their pet for any reason. I have experience with end of life care for cats, administering pills and fluids to cats, and feeding cats by mouth with a syringe. For example, one of my cats has a hyperthyroid and acid reflux and takes pills to manage it, and another has arthritis and takes a liquid medication orally to manage it. I primarily have experience caring for cats, dogs and hamsters. Petsitting is my focus, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m normally available for house sitting both weekdays and weekends, however I do have my own obligations and pets of my own to care for, so I must be able to leave for ~4 to 5 hours at some times. Due to this, I am not always able to accept requests for constant care (meaning pets who cannot be left alone for more than 1-3 hours, as an example). I spend as much quality time with my clients as I can, giving them plenty of love and attention. I love cuddling with them if they’re cuddlers and using their favorite toys when I play with them. I cannot take on higher energy dogs to care for, as I cannot provide them with the stimulation and exercise they need to thrive. In addition to Rover’s Guarantee, I am insured and bonded through PCI.

I’ve used Rover in the past and after an initial meeting, have had great luck with dog walkers. Michelle is even a step above those walkers. Her kindness and patience in allowing my timid dog to get used to her slowly, over a few visits, was such a relief. Michelle’s a rockstar! 😊

Tanya was amazing with Winston! He can be a very nervous boy, but he felt completely comfortable with Tanya and her family. We also had the pleasure of booking at the same time as Winston’s cousin, Gus, so the two of them got to play together the entire time we were away. 😜 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Winston was happy, relaxed, and having the best time!

Brandi and her family are awesome! My husband & I went on a 5-day trip and needed care for our two dogs, about 70 lbs each. The initial meet-and-greet went well and we knew they would be in good hands. Our bloodhound/basset hound mix has occasional seizures (once per 3-6 months) and Brandi was comfortable with that, thankfully. Brandi has a big fenced backyard where the dogs worked out their energy. Daily photos and updates made us confident that our boys were happy and enjoying their stay. Our pups actually slept in bed with Brandi like they do at home! Ha! We will definitely be contacting Brandi again and absolutely recommend her!

Cujo had a WONDERFUL time with Chris, Dan and their dog, Thor! (He even learned some German while there! :-) ) Chris sent us a few photos and video to make us feel relaxed that they were all having a great time. We highly recommend Chris and Dan, they offer a great loving, fun environment (and fenced yard!). Will call them 1st next time we ever need Rover services. SOOOOO much better than going to a kennel!

This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sarah accommodated our last-minute request to watch our 3-month-old puppy for two days. Rip and Mayla were so friendly and playful when we stopped by for a meet and greet. And Sarah's obvious expertise and calm demeanor made it clear that this was a good fit for us. She was always quick with responses, sent daily updates with several pictures spanning the course of the day, and gave a very thorough rundown of how our puppy did his entire time there when we arrived to pick him up. It was clear that she had his best interests at heart. And any time we need a puppy sitter, she will be the first person we contact. 10/10 Highly recommend.

Mary took such wonderful care of our dog while we were gone for a week on vacation. She sent pictures every day and went on daily walks. Her dog is such a sweetheart and our dog loved every minute. She came back home happy and not stressed out like she would after getting kenneled. So glad we were able to use her services. We highly recommend!

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was really young. Other than always having a dog of my own, I’ve taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors. This past year has really been the first time I’ve been without a pet. My daughter and I have a lot of love and attention to give any furry friend. I have early mornings and late afternoon-evening open Monday-Friday open and most weekends are completely open. Holiday time will have more availability with my Thanksgiving and winter break. I have a pretty big yard and a quiet neighborhood perfect for taking walks. I plan to do my best to make sure your pet feels as at home as possible when in my care.

We were nervous to tryout Rover but couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for our fur baby. Ali treated our dog as if he was her own and also made sure we got several updates throughout his stay with her. We highly recommend Ali and will be a returning customer for sure!

We were bummed when our usual Rover sitters and dog-sitting friends weren’t available to watch our dog during a recent weekend trip—but now we’re delighted that it means we and our dog got to meet Roni! Roni was great about sending updates, professional, and clearly knowledgeable about animals. Our dog obviously had a great time with her, and came home happy and tired (in the best way) from playing! Would definitely recommend for all your pet-care needs, and we’re so glad to have another great sitter to reach out to.

About: I grew up with different types of pets. Friends and family have relied on me to love and care for their pets when they need it. My job is pretty flexible with my hours. I am home on the evenings. And all day on the weekends. I will gladly give your fur baby lots of love. My pets are really friendly and will most definitely keep your pet good company. There's a dog park down the street from my house and my pets love it. I will gladly bring your fur baby along to have a good time!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my fur babies received while I was away from Emily, her sons, and their pup Gertie! She's incredibly attentive and has a genuine love for animals. I received daily updates with photos, videos and notes of their daily adventures. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! She is so kind and loving to our dogs.

Very good communication including updates and photos during their stay, has been flexible and supportive when needed. My dog and I trust Dana and very much appreciate her loving care for the animals.
