“Rebekah took wonderful care of our senior dog. Gave him lots of fun and love and her home has a great set up for dogs. She was great about communication and following feeding and meds instructions. It was wonderful to enjoy our weekend knowing our Sven was in such caring, capable hands.”
“Erica and Ciara did a great job taking care of my Cardigan Corgi for a couple days. He doesn't spend a lot of time around other dogs and recently was attacked while walking, so I was initially worried about how he would do with their dogs, but theirs are well trained and he fit into the pack quite easily, it seems. They understood his caution, given what he had been through, and they undertook appropriate precautions when exposing him to their dogs and others. In general, it seemed like a good experience for everyone and he made a couple more dog friends! I will definitely be a return (and repeat) customer.”
“We left our border collie Maddie to stay with Erica during a 5 day trip. Erica was super nice and sent us daily updates with photos and videos, and we could tell Maddie had a ton of fun during her stay.”
“I would highly recommend Ty for all dogs, big and small. Milo is a small dog who has high anxiety and Ty did everything he could to make him feel at home. It took a few days but I think Milo was finally feeling at home. I would confidently bring him back in Ty’s care. Thanks, Ty!”
“Jenny was phenomenal. She’s very flexible on times of pick up and drop off. She sent multiple pictures of Wiley having fun running around and playing. He was more energetic on pick up and even seemed as if he wished to stay longer. Both of her dogs were playful and accepted Wiley into their home with out any issues. Both Wiley and I are extremely pleased with this experience, and can’t wait until the next time Jenny can watch him again when I need to be out of town.”
“Our cat Buddy stayed with Angela and her family for 4 days. Although Buddy is known for hiding away when with strangers, he was very comfortable with Angela’s family right from the start and I have pictures of him snuggling with them 🩷 I will definitely be asking Angela to pet sit for Buddy again in the future!”
About: I have always been an avid animal-lover. From childhood into adulthood, I have owned and cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, birds & fish. My family & I currently share our home with two dogs, a bearded dragon, a Russian tortoise, & a ball python. I have several years of professional work experience in animal care (zoo, kennel care, walking, basic grooming) and wildlife / parks & recreation—both of which are relevant. I enjoy the outdoors and keeping all of our furry (& scaly) friends happy. I will board dogs, small mammals, reptiles & birds in my home! Upon request, I can do drop-in visits for cats or exotic animals within a 15 mile radius. I am currently a stay-at-home mom & so my schedule allows me to be at home majority of the time. If I need to leave the house, it’s never for more than a couple of hours. I have a large four-story home, which provides amble space for pets to play or to be separated if need be. I utilize crates for dogs who need or prefer it. Our yard is unfenced, so I use slip leads and tie-out cables for potty time.
About: Hello! I’m Laura, and I’m so excited to welcome your four-legged family member into my heart and home. Having grown up with dogs and raised three of my own beloved pups through to their golden years, I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets—they are cherished family members. Now that my home is a bit quieter, I have a wealth of love, patience, and attention to share with your dog while you are away. Why Choose Me? Lifetime of Experience: I have over 40 years of experience living with and caring for dogs. Senior Dog Care: Having loved three dogs through their entire lives, I am highly comfortable with senior care, gentle pacing, and keeping strict medication and feeding schedules. A Safe, Loving Environment: Your dog will get my full attention, plenty of belly rubs, and a calm, reliable routine that mirrors the comfort they have at home. Whether your pup is an energetic walker or a professional couch cuddler, I adapt to their unique personality and needs. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend and give you peace of mind knowing they are in safe, loving hands! My daily and weekly schedule is very consistent, which makes it easy to provide a reliable, stress-free routine for your dog. During the week, my schedule allows me to easily plan my day around a dog's needs. I am always home for dedicated morning, late afternoon, and evening care. Because my routine is highly structured, I can guarantee regular potty breaks, timely feedings, and medication administration on a strict schedule. My late afternoons, evenings, and weekends are wide open and entirely dedicated to pet care. Whether that means going for relaxed neighborhood walks, playing in the yard, or just offering quiet companionship on the couch, your dog will be a central part of my day. I treat guest dogs like family, fitting them seamlessly into a warm, attentive, and loving daily routine. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether a dog is staying with me or I am visiting them in their own home. Having raised three dogs of my own, I know how important a secure and predictable environment is for a pet's peace of mind. In My Home: I maintain a calm, dog-friendly, and completely smoke-free environment. Before any stay, I do a thorough safety sweep to ensure all hazards, cords, or human foods are securely out of reach. Dogs in my care are supervised closely, and I follow a strict double-check policy on all doors and gates when entering or exiting. In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it secure, clean, and exactly as you left it. During visits or house sits, I stick closely to your security routines (locking doors, arming alarms) and ensure your dog is safely secured inside before I leave. My Care Philosophy: Tailored to the Dog: I strictly adhere to your specific rules regarding furniture, feeding schedules, and crate training to keep their routine seamless. On-Leash Safety: I always keep dogs securely on-leash during walks and remain highly alert to our surroundings and other animals. Constant Communication: I love sending daily photo updates so you can see firsthand how happy, relaxed, and safe your pup is!
“Nadia took such excellent care of our dog! She sent us pictures and gave us updates throughout the weekend, which I greatly appreciated! Would definitely recommend her and would use her to care for our dog again in the future!”
“Wendy was amazing! We had to board our pup for the first time over MDW last minute and thankfully Wendy was available! She made us feel so assured that our boy would be taken care of and well loved during his stay. She kept us posted daily with pictures and videos which helped us rest easy while we were missing our little guy! I would absolutely recommend Wendy to any pet parents!”
About: Dogs are my main focus and joy. I've raised puppies and provided end of life care. I keep a good feeding, naps, exercise, and training schedule. I have experience giving medication and supporting recovery from surgeries and illness. I am retired and available to watch dogs any time. I am flexible with weekends and weekdays. I am willing to travel some distance to care for dogs throughout the week. I have a fenced in yard with a ramp from the deck. I am able to come to your home to provide dog cares as well.
“Osito had a blast with Sheryl and her son. She has a big yard and my big dog loved it. She sent us videos of them playing outside which he loved. I wanted more vids and pics, but she stayed in touch enough that I didn’t ever worry. I will rebook for our next trip!”

“Miss Jillissa is very attentive and actively works to understand my fur babies' personalities. She regularly kept in touch. Sebastian and Irene were calm and didn't even really care when I got home. She also kept good care of the house. I would gladly have her watch them again!”
“Breanna did drop in visits over the weekend for our cat! She sent us so many pictures and did a great job. We will definitely be rebooking her for more cat sitting the next time we are out of town. She also grabbed a package for me that I forgot was coming while we were out of town!”
“Naomi was fantastic! She watched my cat for a weekend and sent me lots of updates with photos and videos and was extremely self-sufficient. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Booked Peyton for both house sitting and drop in visits the week of 3/22/2026. She was great with taking care of my cat Turbo and providing pictures during my vacation.”
“Came to take our dogs out when we were away at a concert. Played with them outside made sure to put our key back and open up our bedroom door so our dogs could lay on our bed. Awesome pet sitter. Would recommend him highly”
“Laura was extremely responsive and able to help us out last minute over a holiday weekend. We are so grateful for her and how well she took care of our two dogs! We will definitely be happy to have her back in the future.”
“Margaret is the absolute best house sitter/pet sitter we could've ever hoped for. She is so sweet and takes care of everything while we have to be away from home. She's a great communicator and super good with our cats and dog.”

“Jacque was a great care taker looking after our two kitties while we were away.

“Gilman's experience with Erica was outstanding!! He has tons of energy and she knew how to keep him busy. He was showing some obnoxious behaviors when we got to her house. She was so understanding and just knew how to keep him busy and get him tired out. She shared photos with me through texting which allowed for reassurance on this first time experience for me. I highly recommend Erica and we will be visiting again! Thanks for everything Erica (and all)”

“It was our first time using the Rover App and we were really happy with Nadia. It was a last minute drop in and Nadia was quick to reply. We enjoyed the pictures and thought it was neat we could see the walks, poop/pee stops, and eat/drink. Our pup seemed to have a good time and was taken care of and that’s what we cared about. Thank you Nadia😊”
About: Growing up with a variety of animals really gave me the compassion and love I have for animals now. Also, it gave me the skill I need to be able to take care of and provide for the different species of animals there are out there. Mostly, it was dogs and cats but I do have experience in caring for hamsters and bunnies. I love to go walking/hiking just to be outside and getting fresh air so i have no problem going on walks. I’m completely comfortable with our furry friends being on my furniture, I know not everybody is but mi casa es su casa. I am a veterinarian technician with my A.A.S. degree and I plan to open up my own business one day whether it be a dog boarding place of my own or my very own shelter/rescue. Either way, this is my 5-10 year goal and his will help me achieve that. I work full time throughout the week. My evenings are available & so are most of my weekends. This month of August will be busy for me on the weekends though. I make sure they are comfortable & I treat them as if they are my own. I make sure they are happy while their person is gone.
“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience working with Laura. She was quick to respond and it was easy coordinating our visits with her. The updates she provided gave us peace of mind that our dog Jordy was in good hands for the day. We would definitely work with her again in the future! Jordy seemed happy to spend the day with her in her home.”
“Our Sweet Bella struggles with separation anxiety. We needed to find daycare for her while we were visiting family in La Crescent. Ty did an amazing job at working with her. He was flexible, patient, and did what he could to make her feel comfortable. He kept us informed with how she was doing and was prompt at responding to any messages.”
“Angela was excellent with my dog, Vaida! Vaida struggles adjusting to new surroundings, but Angela was a pro with her. Angela provided consistent communication & I was able to stay updated throughout the week. It was great to know Vaida was in good hands.”
About: I require any visiting pets to be vaccinated and on flea preventitive! I have trained many kinds of dogs for many different things! I have a service dog that I trained Bella! I also have a cat that is trained to sit, spin, and jump! I have experience with diabetic animals and with most animals in general! I am educated on animal CPR and heimlich. I'm happiest when I'm spending time with 6 dogs at a time lol it's so much fun! I don't have space to take more than one large dog or 2 small dogs at a time but someday I will! I am working on getting fencing for my yard! I only let 1 dog out at a time. I follow owners feeding schedule. I chart every feeding, drink of water that i see, and every potty break. I send updates daily and am well educated on how to calm an anxious dog!
“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous but my overall experience was positive with AJ. We have a 1 year old mixed breed dog that is very playful and happy around pretty much everyone. We met in a park near AJ’s home and he was promptly on time and communicated well. I asked several questions about the plan for the day and everything seemed reasonable to me. For me personally I just wanted someone that would keep my dog active and happy for the afternoon, also sneak in the occasional nap is okay too. When the day was over we met in the park again and (on time) and my dog was happy to see me. Thumbs up!”
About: At one time, we were breeders of Champion Golden Retrievers, and have raised many a pup, from small to large breeds. From Bernese to Yorkies, we love them all! Our furbabies are a Shorkie and Shih Tzu who are well behaved and make great hosts and playmates! Large pastures and trails on which to walk, so lots of exercise. Our canine guests will receive lots of love and attention! They will be welcome in our house if well-behaved, and treated like one of the family during their stay. We have excellent references from previous guests and do our best to make sure our every guest feels right at home. We follow all care guides given by our guests owners, including giving meds and treats as owner provides us. I or my husband are home with our guest dogs during stays. Our guests get lots of attention and care. We want to care for them as they are used to being cared for at home. We have a fenced yard. We back up to mikes of hiking trails for walks and runs always on leash. We walk 3-4 times a day or as often as match the home life of our guests. They are cared for in our home and integrated into being cared for as part of our family with 2 little welcoming fur babies.
“Michelle was amazing! My babies were so happy and had so much fun. She sent pics and videos and updates regularly, and the dogs warmed up to her well (and they’re picky!). I highly recommend Michelle!!!”
“Ciara was awesome! She took great care of our two big dogs for the day while we were busy touring a local cave. Ciara provided updates and photos showing her pup and ours playing nicely. Highly recommend letting Ciara watch your buddies too!”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. Growing up my family had a small hobby farm where we cared for many animals. Since moving out I have owned and helped train multiple working dogs, including the pointer I have now. I have no problem administering medications if needed. I already walk my multiple times a day so your dog will get plenty of exercise. My girlfriend works from home and I have a flexible work schedule so we are available any time you may need. Your dog will always have someone around if they like constant attention! I live in a house with a large, mostly fenced in backyard. My dog has never met someone he doesn't love, and will run/play until he can't stand anymore! Plenty of room for exercise and play!

Our bird is very picky about people, and she actually flew to Jillissa's shoulder (she sent us a photo showing it!), so clearly Jillissa is a bird whisperer, too!”

I took care of my yellow lab/retriever mix, Blue, for so many years; taking her on long walks, giving her baths, making sure she got along with our neighbor dogs. I also helped out taking care of my neighbor dogs from time to time. After my dog died at the age of 15, my family didn't think we would get another dog. 7 years ago, we got a new puppy, his name is Brooks, and he is a yellow lab. He is very different than our old dog. He has lots of energy, he has ran away a couple times but always came back or we found him, and we lived on 2 acres of land so that helped. He is our first inside dog, so he loves cuddles, treats, sleeping, playing catch and sneaking downstairs where he is not supposed to be. I have lots of experience with dogs and I appreciate and love them very much! I am currently working at the University of Wisconsin La Crosse, so I have the summer off. This summer I also work part-time at Festival. During the school year, I have Fridays off and I am done by 5:30pm the other days. On Mondays and Wednesdays I have slower mornings. I can help out throughout the day and on weekends. I live in an apartment building but there is an area with lots of grass and next to the building and around the area. My building doesn’t allow pets so I am not able to house pets at my place, but I can always talk to my landlord.

“Linsie is extremely professional and detail-oriented. Her text responses are also super quick and she was able to agree to walk my dog with short notice. I had no problem trusting her with my fur babes. Thank you! It was a wonderful experience.”
About: I’ve had dogs consistently in my house since I was born. We have had big german shorthairs, as well as miniature schnauzers so I’m accommodating to any size dog, and can easily take care of them. I’ve just returned from school abroad and am back looking for a full-time job but in the meanwhile will be petsitting/walking/etc. whenever is asked of me. I have a pretty free schedule, so most any booking should work. I would be super considerate of any rules applied by the owners whether in the clients home or mine. I just have a lot of fun bonding and playing with animals, so I’m happy to perform all pet care servcies.

“Rebekah took wonderful care of our senior dog. Gave him lots of fun and love and her home has a great set up for dogs. She was great about communication and following feeding and meds instructions. It was wonderful to enjoy our weekend knowing our Sven was in such caring, capable hands.”
“Erica and Ciara did a great job taking care of my Cardigan Corgi for a couple days. He doesn't spend a lot of time around other dogs and recently was attacked while walking, so I was initially worried about how he would do with their dogs, but theirs are well trained and he fit into the pack quite easily, it seems. They understood his caution, given what he had been through, and they undertook appropriate precautions when exposing him to their dogs and others. In general, it seemed like a good experience for everyone and he made a couple more dog friends! I will definitely be a return (and repeat) customer.”
“We left our border collie Maddie to stay with Erica during a 5 day trip. Erica was super nice and sent us daily updates with photos and videos, and we could tell Maddie had a ton of fun during her stay.”
“I would highly recommend Ty for all dogs, big and small. Milo is a small dog who has high anxiety and Ty did everything he could to make him feel at home. It took a few days but I think Milo was finally feeling at home. I would confidently bring him back in Ty’s care. Thanks, Ty!”
“Our cat Buddy stayed with Angela and her family for 4 days. Although Buddy is known for hiding away when with strangers, he was very comfortable with Angela’s family right from the start and I have pictures of him snuggling with them 🩷 I will definitely be asking Angela to pet sit for Buddy again in the future!”
About: I have always been an avid animal-lover. From childhood into adulthood, I have owned and cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, birds & fish. My family & I currently share our home with two dogs, a bearded dragon, a Russian tortoise, & a ball python. I have several years of professional work experience in animal care (zoo, kennel care, walking, basic grooming) and wildlife / parks & recreation—both of which are relevant. I enjoy the outdoors and keeping all of our furry (& scaly) friends happy. I will board dogs, small mammals, reptiles & birds in my home! Upon request, I can do drop-in visits for cats or exotic animals within a 15 mile radius. I am currently a stay-at-home mom & so my schedule allows me to be at home majority of the time. If I need to leave the house, it’s never for more than a couple of hours. I have a large four-story home, which provides amble space for pets to play or to be separated if need be. I utilize crates for dogs who need or prefer it. Our yard is unfenced, so I use slip leads and tie-out cables for potty time.
“Nadia took such excellent care of our dog! She sent us pictures and gave us updates throughout the weekend, which I greatly appreciated! Would definitely recommend her and would use her to care for our dog again in the future!”
“Wendy was amazing! We had to board our pup for the first time over MDW last minute and thankfully Wendy was available! She made us feel so assured that our boy would be taken care of and well loved during his stay. She kept us posted daily with pictures and videos which helped us rest easy while we were missing our little guy! I would absolutely recommend Wendy to any pet parents!”
“Osito had a blast with Sheryl and her son. She has a big yard and my big dog loved it. She sent us videos of them playing outside which he loved. I wanted more vids and pics, but she stayed in touch enough that I didn’t ever worry. I will rebook for our next trip!”
“Jacque has watched our dog twice now and he's come home happy and as good as ever. She's also been very flexible with drop off and pick up times which makes things much easier. She sends pics and is great with communication! Will definitely keep coming back!”
About: I can walk, doggy-sit during evenings and weekends. Prior military knows how difficult it is to trust others to care for your dog. Always a concern of mine when I had to go away for any period of time and so am empathetic to that type of worry and concerns. I can also offer overnights, my home or yours, and negotiable for longer periods. I grew up with dogs so am not intimidated by even the large types, but will need to overnight at your home if the dog is over 40lbs. I have a small female franchie that loves other dogs, cats and people. I work from home most days so can have your dog at my place while you work or are out. My frenchie goes out every 4-5 hours, working from home makes that more convenient. If your dog needs to go out more often it is no problem. My dog is also not allowed to have food constantly, she is fed 3 times a day and sometimes a treat or two, mainly to control her allergies. I have an apartment, the bedroom has carpet but the rest of the apartment does not so I keep my frenchie out of bedroom due to her allergies. If you have a dog with allergies I am familiar with medications and anything else you might need. I have 6 years of experience specific to the bully breed and 10 years or more with other breeds. I prefer that you can drop your dog off with me but can discuss if you need me to pick them up. I also can only take one animal at a time daily.
