The dogs had a great time during their first stay here! Sumer and her family were able to take them some what short notice as our long time boarder was unexpectedly moving out of town and we really appreciated that. They took great care of the dogs and our dogs had fun playing with their pups. They have a good size backyard and we were happy to get pictures and updates that they were doing well. Thanks again!

Jacqueline and her family took excellent care of our pups. They were patient with our pups despite the challenges they presented. We received regular updates that included videos and text. I knew they were in good hands and this allowed us to enjoy our time away. I will choose them every time we are away for an extended time. You should pick her too!

She welcomed my dog into her home like he was her own. I can't thank her enough for taking such good care of Clyde. Mary now is my go to dog sitter. Thank you again!

Angel was amazing with taking care of my doggos. Bailey has extremely high separation anxiety and is very destructive when left alone and Angel accommodated Bailey’s needs their entire visit which put me at ease. Drop off and pick up was super easy and she also kept me updated on how Bailey and DJ were doing throughout my trip (pics and vids included). Both of my pups were sad on the car ride home bc of how attached they got to Angel and her boyfriend’s amazing personalities and gentleness! I look forward to rebooking with her!

Jennifer was great! It helped us relax on our trip knowing our dog was with someone who was treating her like their own dog. Our dog was able to play outside in the fenced yard, snuggle a bunch and treated like a part of their family. We will definitely use Jennifer for another future trip! Thanks so much!

About: Hi! I’m Meg, a graduate student attending Aurora University online while pursuing my Master’s in Social Work. My career is centered around being patient, dependable, and attentive to individual needs, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for my own dog, Bentley, has given me experience beyond the average pet owner. I adopted him as an 8-week-old puppy from an accidental litter, and over the years I’ve managed his hip issues, bladder disease requiring a strict prescription diet, anxiety, and a collapsing trachea. Because of him, I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed feeding instructions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. In addition to Bentley, I’ve cared for more than 15 dogs through house sitting, walks, and pet care for family and friends. I’m most comfortable with small- and medium-sized dogs, including puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special diets. Since I can’t have a dog of my own right now, Rover is the perfect way to combine something I truly enjoy with a flexible schedule while I’m in graduate school. Whether your pup is staying with me for the weekend or just needs an evening walk, I’ll make sure they’re safe, loved, and well cared for. Communication is important to me, so I’m happy to send photo updates and detailed visit summaries as often as you’d like. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully so they feel comfortable while you’re away. My goal is simple: to care for your pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine, with patience, consistency, lots of love, and plenty of updates along the way. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I’m currently a graduate student attending Aurora University online, which gives me a flexible schedule. I currently offer weekend boarding in my home and evening walks during the week. I’ll always keep my availability up to date, and I’ll only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any routines that help your pet feel at home. I understand that every animal is different, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable. I’m also happy to provide photo updates and detailed check-ins throughout their stay for your peace of mind.

There are no words to express how thankful we are. Traci and her family made our family feel completely at ease while we were away for the very first time. This was our first experience leaving our baby with someone else, and trusting another family to care for him was a big step for us. Traci and her family treated our boy as if he were their own. She kept us updated, which we deeply appreciated, and you can see in the photos just how comfortable and safe he felt. That alone gave us so much peace of mind. For anyone considering care, we highly recommend Traci and her family. They are truly the best. And their dog, Wilfred — the cutest, kindest boy ever — made the experience even sweeter.

Jaymee was kind, communicative, detail oriented, & an evident pro with cats from the very beginning (meet and greet). She even managed to quickly win over the shy one, which is no small feat! Don’t hesitate to hire Jaymee—we will definitely be using her again and again. Thank you!

This was our first experience with our 1-year-old cat named Stan being away from us. Teresa was amazing at communicating and also would send cute pictures of Stanley. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family who are looking for someone to watch their pet. When me and my fiance went to pick up our little dude he looked absolutely so comfortable outside relaxing in the beautiful weather and looked like he was part of the family. If we ever tend to leave even for a small vacation I would definitely 100% see if Teresa was available to watch our baby. We can't thank you enough Teresa people know how stressful it is to leave their fur babies anywhere but you made this experience so easy and comforting. Rover is lucky to have you respenting them.

About: Hi! I'm Jacqui, and I've been surrounded by cats my entire life. As the proud cat mom of four, I know firsthand that every cat has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or loves constant attention, I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. During each visit, I'll provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, administer basic care as instructed, and spend quality time with your cat based on their individual preferences. Some cats love to play, while others simply appreciate a calm, reassuring presence—and I'm happy to meet them where they are. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I'll treat your cats as if they were my own, providing dependable, compassionate care and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your feline family! 🐾

Kristen dropped in twice a day to feed our cat while we were out of town. She checked in with me each time she went by and even sent pictures of Jude looking fat and happy. Knowing someone was there checking on things made being away from home much less stressful. When we got home everything in the house was just as we left it and Jude was so much more chill than she usually is when we get home. Kristen was very nice and easy to make arrangements with. I would definitely recommend her and will book her again if needed.

About: Get ready for your dog to be spoiled! I am the owner of a 7 acre mini Farm home! Your dogs will absolutely love it here! There are lots of trees around and beautiful grass for them to run around in here. I have always been a natural when it comes to pets, but specifically I love dogs, especially really big dogs! I have had dogs my entire life and I now have a small Shepherd Lab mix at home. I make it a priority to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of, well fed, have lots of fun, and get lots of exercise! So it's more than just a regular boarding/walking experience. Also I am a bit of a photographer so plan on getting lots of beautiful pictures of your dog on the farm from me during their visit. I also have two older daughters who are absolute animal lovers and will play and pet your pups consistently while they are here. I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, I an usually always home unless I am on a call for thr fire station. My land is not fully fenced off so If need be I will have to walk pups on a leash which is not a problem at all.

About: Hi there! My name is Angelina, and I am a dedicated and experienced pet sitter with a passion for caring for cats and dogs of all ages. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the unique needs and behaviors of our furry friends. I have worked with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. From energetic puppies to seniors, I have experience providing the love, attention, and care that each pet deserves. As a pet sitter, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the animals under my care. I am committed to creating a safe and comfortable environment for them and I understand the importance of maintaining their routines and providing them with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection. I believe in building trust and forming a bond with each pet, ensuring that they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of clear communication with pet owners and am always available to provide updates and answer any questions or concerns. If you are looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter who will treat your furry friends as if they were my own, I would be honored to be considered. I am confident that my experience, dedication, and love for animals make me the perfect choice to care for your beloved pets. I work from home so I will always be home and able to provide potty breaks as often as needed. Just let me know if your fur baby has any specific needs and I’ll work to accommodate them. I have a large fenced yard and my own dogs to keep your dog company. I have a large doggie playpen and crates if you prefer your fur baby to be crated or separated from my fur babies. I have baby gates to keep dogs in or out of specific areas of the house while I am working (from home) and I use pet cameras to keep an eye on them while working in my home office. I’m happy to send pictures or video updates of your fur babies while you are away so you can have peace of mind and enjoy your vacation or time away while knowing your babies are in a safe environment. My dogs are small/medium, friendly, and not aggressive.

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. Above all, my goal is to make your pet feel completely comfortable and happy in my care whether that means going for walks, getting extra snuggles, or engaging in a little positive, low-pressure training. 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.

I scheduled a meet and greet with Chris and Dan and they were so wonderful and patient with my 14 year old Weimaraner Ozzie. They are knowledgable with dog behavior and their 2 German Sheppards are very well behaved. After meeting Chris and Dan I felt comfortable booking a 4 day stay. Recently Ozzie spent a few hours at Chris and Dan's home so he could become a little more familiar with them and their dogs before his 4 day stay. They made sure Ozzie was comfortable and I am confident that Ozzie will be in great hands whenever he spends time with them.

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 been a dog owner for 20 years. Over the last 10 years, friends, family and neighbors have entrusted me with taking care of their dogs. 2 years ago, I took on the venture of fostering dogs in my home. My experience with them has been with puppies through adult dogs. Special needs dogs are welcome too, as I have experience with dogs with seizure disorder and other chronic issues. During the time the foster dogs are in my care, I work to establish a routine, learn basic commands and household manners. I work from home Monday-Friday. My pets (and fosters) stay in my office with me when I working. I am able to care for your pets during my breaks, lunchtime and after hours. My weekends can be a bit more busy, but I can be flexible in working with your needs. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs to stretch their legs, enjoy the outdoors, and of course relieve themselves. Indoors, I do have crates available if your dogs needs some alone, quiet time. My dogs have their own room to offer a safe space for them. The dogs are never left unattended to ensure they don't get into something they are not suppose to. If watching the dog in your home, I will follow any instructions that you give to ensure your dog's safety and happiness.

She was amazing to keep them taken care of all day. My Stella’s anxiety is getting better everyday that’s she goes there and sees how wonderful It is to be there with her which is fantastic.

About: Hi! My family has had dogs my whole life and I currently have a dog myself, she is 4 years old. While i’m newer to pet sitting, I’m responsible, patient, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I already take daily walks as part of my routine, so caring for pets fits in very naturally. I enjoy having a dog join me—it makes the time more enjoyable while ensuring they get consistent, relaxed exercise. For dog walks, I make sure they get safe, relaxed exercise during my daily walking time. I pay attention to their pace, energy level, and comfort, and I always keep them on a secure leash. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely spend time outside for potty breaks and fresh air. I make sure they are always supervised and safe while outdoors.

Chanse was top tier and made my puppy’s stay the best it could be! She worked with him on his house breaking, playing with her children, helping him fall asleep when anxious, and helping when he had an upset tummy by feeding him chicken and rice. This was my first time boarding my puppy and I have to say, working with Chanse was well worth the 45 minute drive out to Janesville. Thank you so much Chanse, I will definitely be booking again with you on my next trip!

About: I have always had a dog or multiple dogs in my life. I treat them like family. My friends come to me when they need their dogs watched! I am currently unemployed. I had experience working with animals at Petco and I had a previous job working with puppies from age 8weeks up and LOVED it! I would like to do it again. I have two chihuahuas that are allowed to have free roam of the house and yard. They know their boundaries and do not get leashed in the yard. They are allowed on anything but the counters and table! Sleep with me every night and go on walks. I have one with allergies to grass and he gets bathed regularly.

Brandi was WONDERFUL. She was so welcoming and accommodating despite us intruding on a holiday weekend, and so welcoming of our Pup. Throughout our days of doggy daycare, we received updates and pictures and video of our Piper enjoying her stay and new friends, and at the end of each day, we received a very happy (and very ready-to-go-home-and-nap) dog. We used her back-to-back for two days, and Piper recognized she was going got another visit on Day 2 when we turned down Brandi's road, and immediately started crying excitedly in anticipation, all but pulling me out of the car when we opened the door! It's a shame we're not closer to Janesville for regular use of booking, but if we're ever needing to go through the area en route to our destinations, Brandi will be our first choice for daycare or boarding.

This was my first time using this service and we were out of state, so I was nervous about all of it. Then I met Victoria and she is absolutely wonderful!! I was worried leaving my puppy with someone I hadn't met before, but everything went so well!! Victoria was so nice and attentive to my Larry. She sent messages, photos, and videos throughout Larry's visit. We just did doggie day care, dropping him off in the morning and picking him up in the evening, and I knew he enjoyed himself, because he was excited to go back in the morning. When we come back to Wisconsin, I will definitely contact Victoria again for puppy sitting!!

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.

Medea is THE GREATEST dog lover ever. I have worked for her since I moved into Rockford and am so pleased to have her be in our lives. Despite not having the opportunity to socialize with her, I absolutely feel blessed to have her around. I work overnight shift so during my work week I tend to be too tired to Walk my Matilda as much as she needs but I love that Medea comes in and when im awoken by Matildas over excitement it warms my heart to know that she Loves Medea. Since ive had her work with us my Matilda is happier she only barked once at Medeas arrival and when she saw her she was happy. I think Matilda tends to get happiest the days she has her walks with Medea. I would recommend her services to everyone I know with pets. Most amazing person ever. Thank you Medea for being a blessing in our lives. 😃🐶

I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own unique needs and routine. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. My goal is to make sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while their owners are away.

I want them to feel safe, happy, and comfortable while they’re in my care.

About: Hello! My name is abbey. I'm using rover to help me fund my cancer treatment! I figured, I LOVE animals, so why not do something that makes me happy to try to help come up with what I need? 😁 Please note, my response time is only low because I went away and forgot to set my profile to unavailable - I respond immediately to all messages! The longest it takes me is 2-3 hours! Ive always been passionate about caring for animals, ever since I was a kid. I used to take care of my families, friends and neighbors pets as a hobby growing up. Since then I have been on and off taking care of people's animals as well as my own. I have a lot of experience with both large and small dogs, timid, friendly and sassy dogs. I also have experience with taking care of cats and animals who have needed medication or special attention from disabilities or age, as well as nursing dogs and their babies too! I have a lot of free time, so your pets will receive my full attention and time! I can work days, nights, mornings or evenings. For dog walking-I have knowledge of good and safe leash use, and am always extra careful walking with pets to insure their safety. I have a good eye and great sense of security with animals so they tend to trust me, too. Drop in vists/house sitting- I always make sure the house is clean, and I clean up any accidents that may have happened when no one was there. I will insure your animal is their happy and healthy self, with no behavior changes or worrying symptoms. If anything we're to occure, I would immediately let you know. I make sure they are fed and have clean fresh water. If needed, I will do mild grooming for free, i.e; brushing their coat, cleaning ears, a gentle face wash, just the basics. If you have cats, I will also make sure their litter box is clean every day I come in!

About: Get ready for your dog to be spoiled! I am the owner of a 7 acre mini Farm home! Your dogs will absolutely love it here! There are lots of trees around and beautiful grass for them to run around in here. I have always been a natural when it comes to pets, but specifically I love dogs, especially really big dogs! I have had dogs my entire life and I now have a small Shepherd Lab mix at home. I make it a priority to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of, well fed, have lots of fun, and get lots of exercise! So it's more than just a regular boarding/walking experience. Also I am a bit of a photographer so plan on getting lots of beautiful pictures of your dog on the farm from me during their visit. I also have two older daughters who are absolute animal lovers and will play and pet your pups consistently while they are here. I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, I an usually always home unless I am on a call for thr fire station. My land is not fully fenced off so If need be I will have to walk pups on a leash which is not a problem at all.

About: Hello! My name is Gracie, a graduate student living in the Carbondale area. I'm looking for furry walking buddies to make some extra money in my free time. From growing up on my family's hobby farm and watching friend's pets, I have over 9 years of experience caring for dogs and other types of animals, both small and large. I have a wonderful cat named Whispy. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you're in need of animal care. I look forward to meeting you and your dog (or other fur babies). You're welcome to send me a message with any or all inquires. I'd love to get to know you dog or other pet more. In the meantime, have a wonderful day! I’m currently job hunting after graduation, so my current availability is very flexible to suit your schedule. I am willing to work around your schedule to meet your pet care needs. I usually spend my time accompanying the pets when I’m animal sitting for my clients. I can’t help myself but play with pets when they’re nearby, so expect lots of exercise and enrichment :)

Tanya and her family took great care of my dog! I would get picture and video updates of them hanging out and going on walks. I could tell my dog was enjoying his time with them. I would highly recommend them!

The dogs had a great time during their first stay here! Sumer and her family were able to take them some what short notice as our long time boarder was unexpectedly moving out of town and we really appreciated that. They took great care of the dogs and our dogs had fun playing with their pups. They have a good size backyard and we were happy to get pictures and updates that they were doing well. Thanks again!

Mary did and excellent job of taking care of my dog Clyde. She exceeded my expectations. You can see her love for animals and the joy it brings her. She welcomed my dog into her home like he was her own. I can't thank her enough for taking such good care of Clyde. Mary now is my go to dog sitter. Thank you again!

This is our second booking with Mary and we cannot say enough good things about her. Some very unexpected things happened during this booking and Mary truly went over and above to take care of our little guy. We look forward to many more future bookings with Mary!

I almost don't want to leave a review because I don't want everyone finding out what an amazing dog caregiver Samantha is! I cannot rave enough about her communication, competency, and genuine love of animals. I had zero anxiety leaving my dog child with her. I'm actually excited to plan trips again knowing that Riesling has a safe and comfortable place to be.

If I could leave more stars I would. Ali is genuinely a wonderful sitter and is obviously a dog lover through and through. She took the best care of our Emma. Her communication is wonderful, we received plenty of updates and great pictures while we were in vacation. She has moved to #1 on our list of available sitters, no one else even comes close.

From the very start to finish I knew Ella was the perfect sitter for my dog. I mean she is absolutely phenomenal and her energy is amazing. She kept me updated with photos throughout the day and I slept peacefully knowing my dog was ok. I will always and forever make Ella my go to for dog sitting and you should too. She is so sweet and my dog loved her. I feel so blessed to be able to entrust her with my dog. I have a pitbull and she did so good with her! Thank you and I will be booking you again!!

About: We have had a dog or dogs for over 20 years. My husband and I both grew up with dogs as well. Our two dogs have been with us since they were puppies and both of them attended three levels of dog training classes. I work part-time very early in the morning and we spend a lot of time at home because my kids are homeschooled. There is usually always someone at home. I will do as much as I can to accommodate the dog owner’s preference in care for their dog. We have two dogs that can play with your dog. If your dog needs to be in a crate I can accommodate that. Our dogs are not allowed on the couches and chairs but my children do let them sleep in their beds.

About: Hi! My family has had dogs my whole life and I currently have a dog myself, she is 4 years old. While i’m newer to pet sitting, I’m responsible, patient, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I already take daily walks as part of my routine, so caring for pets fits in very naturally. I enjoy having a dog join me—it makes the time more enjoyable while ensuring they get consistent, relaxed exercise. For dog walks, I make sure they get safe, relaxed exercise during my daily walking time. I pay attention to their pace, energy level, and comfort, and I always keep them on a secure leash. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely spend time outside for potty breaks and fresh air. I make sure they are always supervised and safe while outdoors.

Chanse was phenomenal! I left my cat with her for a long weekend and everything went so well! Chanse made every effort to make my pet feel comfortable at her home, updated me regularly with photos, and truly treated her as if she was part of her family. She communicated well, went out of her way to purchase some treats to help my cat acclimate, asked thoughtful questions, and truly cared about the wellbeing of my pet. Her home is very welcoming and safe, and I would absolutely trust her again with any pet. I highly recommend Chanse for any of your pet needs!

About: I had a golden-lab for 6 years until we lost him to cancer earlier this year. My kiddos and I miss him a ton and would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby until we are ready to get another dog of our own. I work fully from home so I have a lot of flexibility all week and any weekends we are home/available as well. I am confident your pet would have LOTS of love and attention! I have a nice fenced in yard and great neighborhood available for daily walks. We have a great safe space to care for your pet!

About: I’ve covered private care, dog walking, training, vet settings and grooming over the past 20 years. Currently I’m the lead groomer at a local doggie daycare specializing in behavioral rehabilitation. This means dogs in my care get folded into my pack and taken along for our day. We have a 1/3 of an acre to relax on and can reinforce training or loose leash pack walks during their stay. As I work with dogs full time, we can easily fold 1-2 dogs into our daily routine. Structured feed times, crate rotation, daily training and lots of playing in the yard are already a part of our day. Dogs can come to work with me if necessary where they will have yard access for potty breaks and a private area indoors, or stay home with my older girl who prefers the peace and quiet of sun bathing, and midday breaks for walks or time in the yard. We have a large home and yard to accommodate everyone, employ structured meal times and crate and rotate when necessary so everyone has 1-1 time at home.
