“Huge thanks to Laura and Shadow for taking such great care of our pup while we were out of town! It gave us such peace of mind knowing that he was safe, loved and having a wonderful time. And we loved all the adorable updates. Thank you!!”
“Kristin & family provided attentive & thorough care for our energetic puppy! Receiving regular updates was appreciated, as was their clear & responsive communication.”
“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.”
“Nicole has a lovely house in a nice neighborhood. She sent me updates on my dog, with pictures and was able to take the dog for daily walks. I'm in between jobs and this was a most affordable great quality yet homely option.”
“Edith took wonderful care of my little guy Gatsby and sent lots of updates which was so reassuring! He clearly got lots of play time but she also made sure he had a spot to go if he needed a break. Edith clearly knows dogs and pack tendencies and I knew Gatsby was in good hands with her two aussies. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Gatsby in her wonderful care again. Thanks Edith!”
“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.”
“Fabulous! Mack gave her 4 paws up and he would have given her more but he only has 4 paws. He has been online trying one to buy me more airline trips so he can go back to Steph and live the good life. Can’t praise her enough. Deb Spencley”
“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!”
“AMAZING!!! Lindsey is a very sweet person and an incredible dog care taker. We left for a family trip for few days and our dog stayed with her. We did not have any worries. We got updates from her daily and our dog had so much fun playing with Lindsey’s dog. Great communication too. If I could, I would give her 10 stars!!!”
“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!”
“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!!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Please read! I will be there first to admit I was skeptical of using Rover. I carefully scanned through profiles of those willing to watch the two dogs we have, a Great Dane and a boxer. Cilyr was so much more than we could have asked for! She and I agreed having a meet and greet prior was a great choice to make sure the dogs would have an easier transition. Cilyr went to every length to ensure she had asked questions we may not have thought of: do the dogs have allergies? Require specific routines? But I was really blown away when she brought to my attention that she does not have a truck large enough for our Great Dane in the event he would need to get to a vet emergently however, she has already arranged with a friend and neighbor that she could borrow theirs should an emergency arise. I knew at that moment She was that absolutely perfect choice to watch our dogs. This was not just a” side gig” for her, she genuinely cares so much for animals and helping others! When I brought the boys back for their week long stay they took about a day and a half to fully adjust. I know this because Cilyr went above and beyond to make sure I knew the boys were doing well and sent pictures! It was so heartwarming to get those little messages and pictures and know our boys were in great hands. Through those pictures you could see our dogs easing into their day and feeling safe and loved. Before we had even returned from our vacation we had discussed that we will hands down take our dogs back to her any time we need to leave them. The personal touches are unmatched to anything we’ve experienced in the past and we will absolutely recommend her every chance we get! Thank you Cilyr!”
“We are so grateful to have found Stephanie to watch our two highly energetic golden girls! She gave them lots of play time, exercise, and snuggles on the couch. She was kind, patient, and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend and we would love to bring our dogs back to her 🥰”
“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!!”
“Boomer had a great time with Dan! We appreciate that he took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand and showed us around the space. When we picked Boomer up, it was clear he had a good time and really tuckered out! Thanks again Dan.”

About: I have had my own pets since college, but grew up with dogs. I’ve had a range of dogs from border collies, to labs, to Great Danes, to Basset hounds. I also have had numerous cats. All of my dogs have lived long, exceptionally spoiled lives, and I follow current dog training suggestions for behavior. I’ve raised a few litters of Danes, and most recently, a litter of Bassets. I have a full time job during the week so am really only available on weekends, but depending on location, exceptions can be made especially if it is for just check-ins. I’m willing to come to your home and follow your pet rules so your pets stay comfortable and safe, and don’t have their routine disrupted.
“Laura is such a delight to work with! My cats told me they had a great time while we were on vacation in their own way. Lois is the most timid cat ever and Laura was actually able to see her! This is unheard of!”
About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart 🐱❤️ While I don’t currently have cats of my own, I’ve spent years caring for cats through friends, family friends, and my best friend’s cats, along with my experience working at PetSmart as a Pet Care Associate for 3 years. I’ve cared for cats with all kinds of personalities — from playful and outgoing to shy cats who need a little extra patience and comfort. Through both personal and professional experience, I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, giving medications if needed, and understanding cat behavior and body language. I truly love earning a cat’s trust and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away 🐾
“Alicia is amazing. The cats all seemed happy in the pics she sent and she even washes the used cat dishes, filled their water fountains, and watered my roses. She is awesome and I highly recommend. We will hire her again to take care of our cats for our next away trip.”

“We used to have Leonardo stay in his crate while we were at work, but we knew he deserved something better. After looking through several profiles, Jamie really stood out. Once we read more about her, we felt confident Leo would have an amazing time with her and her dogs. Now he comes home completely tired and even falls asleep in the car, which says everything! Jamie is so kind and welcoming. we couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for him. We would absolutely recommend her. Thank you, Jamie, for treating Leo like your own while we’re at work!”

It definitely put this worrying puppy mom at ease knowing he was having such a fantastic time with Sasha and Gen while we were gone. His face always perks up when we pull into their driveway and he never wants to leave!”

I have a long line for when your pet is outside and lots of patio seating to supervise and play with your pet the whole time. I also have a crate for indoor use.
“We couldn’t be more pleased with Marley’s experience with Joyce. Joyce was very good about sending photos that really reassured us that Marley was getting along nicely. Marley was so well-cared for and had such a good time! In fact, Marley laid down outside the car, as we tried to leave, as if to say, “Aw gee, do we have to go home already?””
“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.”
“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!”

I definitely would love to bring my dog back the next time I need someone to watch him. Thanks so much for making it great for us!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10. My family has a doodle and I grew up with him. I graduated last year and I started raising a golden retriever. Her name is Yumi and she is 8 months old now. She has a great personality and there is no dog she can not get along with! I worked at home on weekends and I'm mostly available on holidays. Weekday schedule depends on my research and class schedule. I'm pretty flexible and open to same-day reservations. I have a dog-proofed apartment. If you have a puppy who is not fully house-trained I will be able to take care of him/her. Dogs are allowed on couches and their beds.
About: I'm a genuine animal lover who treats every home and pet as if they were my own. Whether you have an energetic puppy, a senior dog needing extra care, a shy pup who takes time to warm up, or a small apartment with a feisty terrier — I show up prepared, patient, and attentive. My priority is making sure your pets are happy and your home is respected, so you can travel with real peace of mind. I welcome meet-and-greets beforehand, communicate throughout the stay, and always leave your home just as I found it. Pet sitting is my primary focus when I take a sit — I'm not squeezing it in around a busy schedule. Your pets get my full attention, not leftover time. I stay in your home for the full sit, keeping your pets in their own space with their familiar routines, smells, and comfort. No disruption, no transport — just consistent care in the environment they already trust.

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: I currently volunteer for a dog rescue organization. I have several years of experience training dogs and know how to read dog's cues for aggression, anxiety, and fear. I love walking and training dogs. I won't fetch, but I'll play fetch for hours if your dog desires! I give treats minimally and praise maximally! I'm open to using whatever method you're used to for training your dog. I use a prong collar with my pooch on walks, and know how to properly adjust the fit so the collar sits comfortably on the dog's neck. I own my own home, and have plenty of leashes, collars, and toys to occupy your pooch and make them feel like they've won the dog lottery. I'm mostly available on weekends, and work during the week with some flexibility. I'm situated in Verona near the Westside of Madison!
“We have a reactive dog that needs time, space and discipline. Sidney is very friendly, understanding and willing to work with us to make our pup comfortable. We are happy to book her again!”
About: I’ve been a proud dog owner for over 15 years, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained hands on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pups. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve volunteered at local animal shelters, where I helped walk, feed, and socialize dogs from all backgrounds. I'm comfortable with a variety of breeds and activity levels, and I always tailor my approach to each dog’s individual needs, whether it’s a long walk for an active dog, playtime and enrichment for a curious pup, or calm companionship for an older one. My goal is to make every dog feel happy, safe, and loved. I don't have much experience with cats but am eager to learn and help any cat parent that needs it. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to check on or walk pets during the day or anytime during the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m walking your dog, visiting for a drop in, or staying in your home, I make sure each pet feels relaxed, secure, and loved. During walks, I always use secure leashes, avoid unsafe areas, and keep a close eye on your dog’s behavior and surroundings. For drop in visits, I follow your routine for feeding, playtime, and potty breaks to keep things consistent and stress free. When staying in your home, I treat your space with respect and keep everything clean and tidy while maintaining your pet’s usual schedule.

“Please read! I will be there first to admit I was skeptical of using Rover. I carefully scanned through profiles of those willing to watch the two dogs we have, a Great Dane and a boxer. Cilyr was so much more than we could have asked for! She and I agreed having a meet and greet prior was a great choice to make sure the dogs would have an easier transition. Cilyr went to every length to ensure she had asked questions we may not have thought of: do the dogs have allergies? Require specific routines? But I was really blown away when she brought to my attention that she does not have a truck large enough for our Great Dane in the event he would need to get to a vet emergently however, she has already arranged with a friend and neighbor that she could borrow theirs should an emergency arise. I knew at that moment She was that absolutely perfect choice to watch our dogs. This was not just a” side gig” for her, she genuinely cares so much for animals and helping others! When I brought the boys back for their week long stay they took about a day and a half to fully adjust. I know this because Cilyr went above and beyond to make sure I knew the boys were doing well and sent pictures! It was so heartwarming to get those little messages and pictures and know our boys were in great hands. Through those pictures you could see our dogs easing into their day and feeling safe and loved. Before we had even returned from our vacation we had discussed that we will hands down take our dogs back to her any time we need to leave them. The personal touches are unmatched to anything we’ve experienced in the past and we will absolutely recommend her every chance we get! Thank you Cilyr!”
“We are so grateful to have found Stephanie to watch our two highly energetic golden girls! She gave them lots of play time, exercise, and snuggles on the couch. She was kind, patient, and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend and we would love to bring our dogs back to her 🥰”
“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!!”
“Boomer had a great time with Dan! We appreciate that he took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand and showed us around the space. When we picked Boomer up, it was clear he had a good time and really tuckered out! Thanks again Dan.”
“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 :)”
About: I’ve had animals in every corner of my life, throughout my whole life! I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats all with various needs such as medications, appointments, and mobile assistance. I have also volunteered with Wisconsin WildCare and local humane societies. I am a passionate & fearless animal advocate with speed dial access to a large animal vet and a retired DNR officer. I will treat your pet as my own whether it’s in my home or your home. I work a full time job only seven minutes from my home. My job is incredibly flexible and understanding of my need to let animals out or even leave work early for pet care! I have a balcony that animals can hang out on and a large grassy field that I take animals for walks on. I always keep them leashed. If I want them to be unleashed, I can take them to the local dog park five minutes from my house! I am comfortable with animals on furniture and sleeping in bed with me. I have access to my own crate if the animal is crate trained.
