“Ryan and Martha took wonderful care of my dog. They treated her as a member of their family. They took her for walks and sent daily pictures. I will certainly ask them to care for Ella again when needed.”
“Super nice family and home with fenced yard. We needed someone on short notice due to a family emergency. Katie and Samuel offered to be flexible with our return date which we greatly appreciated. Juneau seemed to have done fine.”
“Emily was great with our big, young and very energetic dog! She has a great fenced in yard and our dog had a blast! He was very tired when he got home! We would definitely use her again!”
“Starla had a wonderful weekend at Natasha's! We got frequent photos and videos of her having a great time playing in the big, fenced yard and going on walks. Definitely recommend and will rebook in the future!”
“Kristin & family provided attentive & thorough care for our energetic puppy! Receiving regular updates was appreciated, as was their clear & responsive communication.”
“Christine is the absolute best. She made us feel very comfortable with leaving our pup and was awesome about keeping us updated. I think our dog liked being with Christine more than at home! It was such a blessing finding such an amazing dog sitter!!!”
“Sarah did a great job with our highly anxious dog. I know she was really stressed being away from our family, so we appreciate all Sarah did. She worked with us when we had to adjust who picked our dog up and we had no issues.”
“Gilian was an amazing choice for boarding my dog! First we did a meet and greet at a local dog park, and then welcomed my dog to her home for a week+ of boarding. My anxious pup felt comfortable here after a couple days, and was well cared for. We can't do boarding kennels because of my dog's anxiety, so I'm so glad we found this service! I got updates daily about activities and behavior, as well as photos and videos! Gilian is knowledgeable handling anxious dogs, and she has good techniques on introducing dogs to new environments, dogs and people to help ease anxiety. I highly recommend Gilian!”
“Emily and her family were so great with Jarvis! They sent plenty of update pictures and he seemed to have an amazing time!! We will definitely be looking to have them take care of Jarvis again :)”
“We left our dog Toffee with Jenny and her family for 5 days while we attended a work conference, and we could not have asked for a better experience! This was our first time using Rover and leaving Toffee with someone we didn’t know, so we were definitely nervous at first. Jenny immediately made us feel comfortable with constant updates, pictures, and videos throughout the entire stay. Toffee had the absolute best time running around in her huge backyard, playing with her kids and her two dogs, and getting so much love and attention. It truly felt like he was treated as part of their family. You can tell Jenny genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing Toffee was happy, safe, and so well cared for. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be booking with Jenny and her lovely family again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Robert was a wonderful dog sitter. He truly loves dogs and took great care of Murphy. He took him on numerous walks every day. He kept us updated with pictures. He was always quick to reply and very accommodating. We would definitely use him again!!”
“Kato had an excellent time with Brad. I was extremely nervous as I had not used Rover in the past but he sent me pictures and updates throughout the weekend that put my mind at ease. Kato was a happy and tired pup when he came home. Will definitely book with Brad in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience! This family took excellent care of our mini goldendoodle while we were on vacation—so kind, attentive, and thoughtful. They sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us total peace of mind and showed he was happy and having fun. Highly recommend!”
“Michelle (and family) took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town for 2 days, even keeping her calm during a storm. Great communication, too!”

About: I have owned cats my whole life, both indoor and outdoor. I am very comfortable providing care to cats of all ages. I have experience caring for senior cats, sick cats, or kittens. I can administer medications if necessary, and can provide the BEST cuddles for your kitties (if they allow it!) I have two cats of my own currently, so I know how mischievous they can be or needing playful stimulation when home alone for too long. I would love to give you peace of mind in making sure your cat is well cared for and looked after when you are away from home.

I’m very flexible and willing to learn what your pet loves the most! I strive to keep your fur baby comfortable in his/her own home.
About: I've owned and loved cats since I was 4 years old, and more recently have started fostering them as well.

I am also able to administer oral or topical medications and may be able to perform regular nail trims over longer visits.

“Whitney was great! She came in for a drop-in visit while we were away for a day trip. Silly Millie got into things she wasn't supposed to and Whitney gladly put things away. She was also super prompt with responding and it was easy setting up times to pick up and drop off keys. She also offered to come again later in the day in the case that we were coming back later than expected.”
About: I have been around a variety of animals my entire life. I grew up on a farmette with sheep, pigs, bunnies, cats, and dogs. I have always been and continue to be a huge animal lover. I am a child-less millennial and I wish I could be my own pet, ha. I adopted my golden retriever when she was 8 weeks old and spent a lot of time training her. We began doing therapy dog work, visiting our local nursing home once a week until Covid hit. We did this for 3 years. I also adopted my senior cat when Covid hit. I then started volunteering with an organization that trains service dogs to guide. My role started as a ‘puppy raiser’. The dog lives with me in my house and comes everywhere with me-work, appointments, errands, etc. and my job is to expose it to as many experiences as possible to better prepare it to be a guide dog. I ended up adopting my second dog, a failed guide dog, through this organization and he continues to come into my elementary classroom with my everyday as a therapy dog. After adopting him I pivoted and began teaching inmates how to train guide dogs. My organization partners with a prison where we have about 20 inmate handlers and 10 guide dogs in training the inmates are working with. In the summer I go to the prison 1x/week and help teach the inmates how to train the dogs. I also go to one training class (at least) a month on dog training as part of the organization I volunteer for. I’m comfortable and experienced around dogs of all ages. I’m a teacher and I have a really flexible summer schedule. Now we’re back to school my availability will shift to nights and weekends. I’m a very flexible person though and I’ll work with you! Your dog will always be leashed when outside unless you have a fenced in yard. I want your absence to be as minimally stressful as possible for both you and your pet. Any routines you have I’m happy to do my best to recreate them. You never have to feel like you’re bugging me if you forget to mention something initially or have any questions or concerns. Im excellent at communicating and I’ll take your lead. If you want me to spam you with photos of your pet, say less. If you want to be left alone and just get a brief check-in we can do that too!
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 6 years old and I've always had a passion for animals, so much so I wanted to make it a career path for myself. I have over 3 years experience as a veterinary technician and pet groomer, and am hoping to use that knowledge to help in this endeavor. As a pet owner myself I know that care and attention is important for pet parents, which is why I'm here, to take my knowledge and experience to ensure you animals get that vital care and attention while you're away. I am currently working part time as a pet groomer. I am open Saturday-Monday, Wednesday- Thursday after 3 pm, and Occasionally Fridays. I am flexible throughout the week depending on my pet grooming schedule. I am unable to provide services in my own home. But I am able to travel however you need, whether it be your home, the dog park, etc.

About: I've cared for cats and dogs my own as well as other owners, for the last 20-plus years I also have experience with other kinds of animals. I protect animals fiercely and I am extremely receptive of detail and specifics that any pet owner may have for me. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.
“Christine is the best! She is so knowledgable about dogs, she gives me great feedback about how Chance is doing. She sends frequent updates/pictures. I really trust her.”

“This was our first time using Heather (and the family!!) for daycare for Nola! He had a blast and came home happy and tired. We are using Heather again for a longer trip and our worries about leaving Nola at home have evaporated!”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my hands-on experience and dedication. I've fed cats and dogs, walked them, and stayed overnight for extended periods. I've also trained puppies and my own dog, ensuring a well-rounded approach to pet care. Pet owners have relied on me for consistent care, knowing I’m always there when needed. My commitment to providing personalized and compassionate attention makes me a trustworthy choice for any pet sitting job. I am currently a technical college student who only goes to school twice a week while the rest is online, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available to care for your dog Thursday-Sunday most weeks and will give them all the time they need! I like to know the pets routine/schedule and understand any behavior they may have. I would love to know the intentions of me watching your beloved doggy and what you need from me personally to make you and your dog as comfortable as possible.
“Sarah was really good with our Sasha. Sasha has a lot of energy especially when meeting new friends and Sarah was a total pro. Sarah's confidence and experience put me at ease and I will definitely book again with her.”
“Emily responded quickly to my request for daycare and we did a meet & greet the day before to make sure my dog Wolfie and her two dogs Gus & Bailey got along. It was perfect, all was good. The actual day of daycare Wolfie couldn’t wait to get inside Emily’s house! Wolfie played a lot and was very chill/tired for the evening. Emily is very nice and took great care of my pup! Highly recommend. Thanks Emily!!”
About: I have had animals since I was very young so lots of experience. Have owned 3 rescue dogs who are just like members of my family. Recently, I have been helping friends with their animals when they vacation and am looking to extend my client group to the local area. I am very active so walking dogs is very enjoyable for me. I am free most mornings and nights and have longer breaks during my work day that would allow flexibility for drop ins and walks all week. I am able to come to your home and provide for your pet's needs including walks, feeding, potty breaks etc. I've even been known to clean a litter box or two. Can provide references upon request.
“My dog Cooper had never stayed with anyone but family in his 5+ years so I did a lot of research before I chose Gilian for doggie daycare and I’m so glad I did! She was great at our initial meeting with Cooper and expertly assessed his personality and needs. I had immediate trust in her dog care knowledge and felt comfortable leaving my dog in her care. He had a great time at his first day and was totally tired out that night after playing all day. I look forward to many more fun daycare days for Cooper with Gilian!”
“Benji was in good hands. He came back a happy boy . Wanqing is a very sweet lady and we would feel comfortable leaving our very loved dog with her anytime. Thank you again for taking care of our Benji.”
About: We are a family looking to host short term visits and love on puppies so my kids can experience taking care of dogs without the longterm commitment. We are a homeschooling family that have capacity to learn responsibility being supervised and give so much attention to puppies who need a place to stay while you travel! The intention of hosting your family pet is that they will be apart of our family while they stay with us and be loved and taken care of well instead of being kenneled.
About: Former full-time human medical provider of 18 years; now available for pup sitting. Takes frequent walks with the neighborhood dog pack. Owner of one special dog named Tennessee. I’m free to organize my schedule between pet sitting and working on my business. Currently available most days until July 20th! Will update calendar when I know more. I like routine. I think pets appreciate kibble and potty breaks on a familiar schedule. I will honor your wishes for care, play, walks, and socializing.
“Jenny and Darin were great! They provided updates throughout the day and took great care of our slightly anxious puppy :) Will definitely book with them again!”
“Kristin and Bruce provided exceptional daycare services. My senior dog initially had anxiety being in a different home. Kristen and Bruce were very attentive and made her feel comfortable.”
“Absolutely amazing experience with our dog sitters! 🐾 They took such incredible care of my mini dachshunds, Nugget and Muffin, and treated them like their own. I got updates, photos, and total peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious how much they truly love animals, and my pups came home happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. Nugget and Muffin can be a little spoiled and needy at times, but they were so patient, attentive, and loving with them. I honestly couldn’t ask for better people to trust with my dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitters! 💕”
About: Thanks for stopping by! I am offering full day dog day camp which includes pick up and drop off from your home located in Evansville, WI or Brooklyn, WI.

Daily, I care for my pups at home and livestock on our farm. Our doggies really love when they get to join us on our farm, which gave me the interest in offering doggy daycare at our farm so other pups can enjoy it too! Lots of smells and experiences to enjoy on a farm! I have a fenced in indoor and outdoor play area for my dogs. I leash all dogs while not in designated dog areas. Designated potty breaks, supervised play time with adequate rest as well.

About: Hello! I’m an experienced in-home service specialist, specializing in, but not limited to, pet care!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for like they’re my own. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities from energetic puppies who need extra playtime and patience to older pets who need a gentler touch and a slower pace. I’m attentive to each animal’s unique needs, routines, and comfort levels to make sure they always feel safe, loved, and cared for. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I truly love! I make time every day for walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I’m flexible with scheduling to meet each pet’s needs. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I also make sure to give updates and photos throughout the day so you can see how your pet is doing it’s important to me that you feel just as at ease as your furry friend does! When caring for pets whether in my home or yours safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and any special needs before starting care. I make sure they always have a clean, cozy space to relax, fresh water, and plenty of love and attention. In your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I follow your instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, and make sure your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with safe play areas and lots of supervision. Building trust with both pets and owners is my top priority I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your furry friend is in good hands!
About: I have two dogs myself and I fully trained one of them myself, plus I have experience with senior dogs and smaller dogs as well. I’m a dog lover through and through! I have a part time job but I am available throughout the week to drop in and either let your pups out/play with them, or to give them needed exercise! I’m also a student so afternoon/evening or AM works best for my schedule. I am open to interacting with your dog(s) based on what they need and are used to. I can easily let them run around in a fenced in area or crate them when I leave if need be. I am very comfortable walking dogs outdoors or just playing with them inside if preferred.
About: I love dogs! Let me cuddle and love your dog while you’re away! I love to stay active outside and take walks/jogs outdoors. Before committing to a dog myself, I want to experience some of the restrictions that come with having a dog (being home immediately after work/during the day to let the dog out in normal non-Covid times, not staying out too late on the weekends, etc). Hopefully I can use Rover to get my dog fix until I’m able to make the decision to get my own dog. I have severe cat allergies and am allergic to some large dogs, which is why I favor small dogs. I prefer non-shedding dogs to keep my allergies in check. Reach out if you have questions!
“This was Lauren's first time walking Cara. She did a wonderful job, arriving on time and taking Cara for a walk and feeding her. Cara also got a great belly rub. Thanks Lauren.”
About: I've had dogs my entire life. I absolutely love them and took care of our family pets as a child. I have a very large dog of my own and am extremely confident in my ability to control the largest of dogs. So size is no problem for me! I also have experience taking care of other animals as well, so don't hesitate to ask! I would be glad to help you with any and all your pets. I have taken some dog training classes and am still seeking more knowledge, so rest assured that I am receiving all the tools I need to be the best care provider for your pet. I am currently between jobs and have lots of time to spend on pet care. My Saturday mornings and early afternoons can be a little taken up, but I can work around that. I personally have a fenced in yard for my dogs. They get three meals a day and outside access whenever they please. Someone is always home with them. The cats are indoor only and free feed. I take my dogs for walks regularly and we like to play often throughout the day.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old and dog sit for family and friends. I have taken care of outdoor dogs and indoor dogs! I currently work full time and am available in the mornings, evenings and weekends to walk dogs and take care of dogs! Please let me know your preference! I can easily crate a dog if needed. I am available to walk dogs anytime and live near a park! I am also available to help in a client’s home to care for a pet.
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m patient, attentive, and calm, which helps pets feel comfortable quickly, especially animals that are anxious, shy, high energy, or adjusting to a new environment. I also have experience caring for cats and dogs with different needs, including senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, extra monitoring, or simply more patience and consistency. I understand that younger pets need structure, play, and positive reinforcement, while older pets often need gentler care and close attention to comfort and routine. Because I work in a people-centered role professionally, communication and reliability are very important to me. I make it a priority to send regular updates, photos, and clear communication so owners can feel relaxed while they’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re gone.
“Overall a great person. Very easy to work with, easy to reach, fast reaponses, punctual... Took care of our dogs by giving them walks while we were on vacation. The pups loved Allison. Thank you for everything!!”
About: My name is Gina. I have pet sat and worked in doggy daycares for several years. I enjoy the reprieve of being around and interacting with animals. I have lived with cats growing up and currently reside with dogs. I try to cater to their specific needs as I know each animal is different. I provide affection, exercise and care with walks, play toy/fetch, cuddle/pet, feedings, and I make sure to leave the area as clean as when I arrived. I am playful and will get down and silly with them on their level. I am also respectful of coming into their home/domain. They get to check me out first for approval and allow me into their space. I also specialize in pet photography and love bringing my camera along to capture sweet and special moments.
About: I have had experience with both cats and dogs since I was a toddler. In my teens, I became active on surrounding farms so I also bonded with horses and cows. I have experience in dog walking and house sitting for pets. I'm currently a college student, so my summers are very open to fit most times and schedules. I likely will be working a second shift part-time job during the week days. I have a fenced-in yard and two cats. I'm comfortable taking care of all sizes of pets, and I love walking dogs. I have experience in multiple different types of walking environments and weather as well.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. From the responsibility of family pets, to walking dogs for family friends and neighbors when I was 8 years old. As an adult I have rescued senior dogs, I have a soft spot for them. I also have experience with bully breeds and absolutely love them. I love dogs of all breeds and I can’t wait to meet yours. I currently go to school part time, it is all computer based and self paced so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies while you’re away. Available during the week and weekends. Available for holidays with enough notice. I live near the lake and love to go for walks. I would prefer to care for your pet in their own environment as I know when you are gone it is stressful enough for them. I do currently have one dog of my own. I do live in an apartment complex with other dogs present.
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and I currently have two of my own...Tripp and Lilly! Dogs are such an important part of my life, and I’ll care for your pup like they’re one of my own. I always go above and beyond to make sure dogs feel safe, loved, exercised, and happy while you’re away. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or extra attention, I’m committed to providing the best care possible. I also have a reliable vehicle and can transport dogs to local dog parks if they need more exercise than a walk can provide or if you don’t have a yard available. I work full-time in Madison Monday through Friday during standard business hours, so I may not be the best fit for services that require potty breaks or walks during those times. However, I do occasionally have flexibility in my schedule and may be able to accommodate certain requests, so please don't hesitate to ask if I can make it work. My evenings and weekends are typically very flexible and available. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. I’d love to chat and see if I’d be a good fit for your pup! :)

My anxious pup felt comfortable here after a couple days, and was well cared for. We can't do boarding kennels because of my dog's anxiety, so I'm so glad we found this service! I got updates daily about activities and behavior, as well as photos and videos! Gilian is knowledgeable handling anxious dogs, and she has good techniques on introducing dogs to new environments, dogs and people to help ease anxiety. I highly recommend Gilian!”
“Emily and her family were so great with Jarvis! They sent plenty of update pictures and he seemed to have an amazing time!! We will definitely be looking to have them take care of Jarvis again :)”
“Robert was a wonderful dog sitter. He truly loves dogs and took great care of Murphy. He took him on numerous walks every day. He kept us updated with pictures. He was always quick to reply and very accommodating. We would definitely use him again!!”
“Kato had an excellent time with Brad. I was extremely nervous as I had not used Rover in the past but he sent me pictures and updates throughout the weekend that put my mind at ease. Kato was a happy and tired pup when he came home. Will definitely book with Brad in the future.”
“Michelle (and family) took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town for 2 days, even keeping her calm during a storm. Great communication, too!”
“The kids were happy. Good communication, lots of photos and video. It was a great place with a good yard for them to play. She took good care of our perrhijos.”
“Ryan, Krista and the rest of the family take great care of our pups. We’ve used them twice (so far) and will likely use them for future trips. Very comfortable recommending them to others. We appreciate that they sent pics and short videos almost every day showing them having a great time at the dog park, playing with Yoyo in the fenced in backyard, and just relaxing with the family.”
“Such a treat to have Duane & Lauren take care of my pup, Rapha while I was away. They are very responsive and attentive to the needs of both owner and doggie. Thank you!”
