“Millie loved her time at Ty’s! She doesn’t always like to eat when given the opportunity to play with other dogs, but Ty worked with her and was able to get her to eat her meals:)”
“Zoe really enjoyed staying at Jamie's house with her family and dogs. She is always playing and smiling in the photos. Jamie was very accommodating in extending Zoe's stay.”
“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.”
“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”
“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”
“Jared was very helpful and accommodating. Princess was well taken care of and had a lot of cuddles from everyone in the family. I will contact again next time I need a sitter for Princess!”
“Janelle and Chris were excellent. They were very flexible and accommodating from start to finish. From the time you arrive you can feel their passion toward your pet as if it were there own. It was comforting as we knew Duke would be in good hands and hopefully he behaved well for them! Great young and energetic couple with compassion for your pet.”

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!
About: What sets me apart is my wide range of hands-on experience caring for pets with all kinds of needs, personalities, and ages. I’ve worked with young dogs, senior dogs, medium and large breeds, tiny dogs, blind cats, and multi-pet households—and I’m confident handling just about any situation. I’ve cared for 1–3 dogs at a time, 2–5 cats, and households with both dogs and cats together, making me comfortable managing different temperaments and routines at once. I’m also experienced with pets in heat, pets requiring extra patience, and animals who need gentle guidance or special attention. Above all, I’m calm, responsible, and detail-oriented. I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and loved—whether it’s through slow introductions, careful monitoring, maintaining routines, or giving them the extra comfort they need. I am currently enrolled in college at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I have access to a car, so I have the ability to travel to get to jobs. I have frequent breaks throughout my days and nights, and weekends are open. I also have the ability to stay overnight if needed or desired. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and currently have two cats and two dogs back home, so I’m very comfortable providing consistent, loving, and attentive care. I also participate in the Doggy Day Out program through the Coulee Region Humane Society, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. In addition, I frequently help care for friends’ cats, giving me experience with a variety of feline personalities and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable. This includes following feeding schedules, providing plenty of exercise, giving treats (if allowed), cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water, and offering lots of affection and companionship. I always make sure the home stays clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos. My approach is calm, reliable, and detail-oriented—I make sure every pet feels cared for, understood, and stress-free while you’re away.
“What a great experience! Lauren communicates well and shred lots of pictures. Buddy got along with her dogs. Best of all Buddy felt comfortable enough to eat. Highly recommend Lauren.”

“Having Christine watch our little furbabys while we were gone was a blessing its the first time in 2 years we left them home alone and yet i know with Christine watching them they got lots of loving care, i loved the photos and video updates of our kitties.”
“Rhonda was kind, communicative and attentive to our kitties! She and her husband went above and beyond to ensure our stubborn cat received his daily medication and gave lots of love and attention to our other affectionate little guy. They made being away much easier on us!”

About: I’ve taken care of my friend’s kitties for a couple of years now. I enjoy hanging out and chilling with the cats, playing with toys, giving many treats and giving them their space when needed. I am slightly allergic, but I do take an allergy pill everyday I’m around animals and am mindful when I’m taking care of cats.
About: I grew up with dogs and have had two dogs of our own for 11 years. We enjoy regular walks around our neighborhood and are experienced in giving vitamins and/or medication daily. I work full-time and am available to make trips home to allow bathroom breaks and home all evenings and weekends. I work full-time in La Crosse and am available in the early afternoons and evenings. Also available for an occasional trip for quick bathroom breaks/walks. My backyard faces a golf course, perfect for a peaceful and relaxing environment. Plenty of space to wander without the worries of lots of traffic or people.
About: Growing up with two dogs and a kitten sparked my lifelong love for animals. While I’m not yet in a position to adopt a pet of my own, my partner and I both grew up surrounded by furry friends and deeply miss the snuggles, walks, and unconditional love we shared with them back in our hometown. Caring for your pets would be a wonderful way for us to fill that space and share our love for animals! My partner and I both work full-time in professional roles Monday through Friday, but my workplace is conveniently close to home. This allows me the flexibility to take lunches and breaks as needed, ensuring I can meet your pet care needs with reliability and attention. I currently don’t have any pets in my apartment, but I live in a pet-friendly home with a backyard (unfenced) and easy access to nearby trails for walks, if that’s something your pet enjoys. I’m very relaxed when it comes to pet preferences—pets are welcome on furniture and even in bed with me! I’m happy to be flexible and follow your specific directions to ensure your pet feels right at home.
About: am a cat owner myself and currently care for two cats with very different personalities and needs. I understand that cats thrive on routine, familiar surroundings, and patient care. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, administering medications when needed, playtime, companionship, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I will respect their unique personality and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I've been around cats my entire life and have experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities. In addition to growing up with cats, I've provided cat-sitting for friends and family, making sure each cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My experience includes feeding, refreshing water, scooping litter boxes, brushing, playtime and enrichment, and providing plenty of attention while respecting each cat's unique personality. I've also given medication to my own cat, so I'm comfortable following care instructions and handling routine medications with patience and care. I'm dependable, attentive, and committed to keeping your cat happy, healthy, and stress-free while you're away.
“Olivia was amazing. She took care of my 2 cats and made sure that Stormy, who is a bit shy ate every day even if it meant feeding him in weird spots. She gave Sunny plenty of attention! And towards the end I think even Stormy loved her!”
“Sara did a great job with our boys. Theo's shots (diabetic) can be a bit intimidating, at first, and she handled them beautifully. In addition, Louie is quite wary of new people and by mid-week his photos show that he's comfortable enough to come out and supervise what she was doing. We'll undoubtedly be booking future visits and would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone who's looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
About: I have extensive experience, caring for cats of all personalities. I understand cat body language and always respect their boundaries. i’m comfortable with shy, anxious, or independent cats and give them the space they need to feel safe. I focus on routines that matter to cats, including feeding, litter, box, care, playtime, and quiet time. I don’t force interactions. Cats are allowed to warm up naturally, and feel comfortable at their own pace. Period with years of personal experience, owning and caring for cats, I know how to provide patient, loving care that keeps them happy and stress-free.
About: I grew up with many outdoor cats on my family’s farm. Also, I’ve taken care of many cats belonging to friends and family in the past. Currently, I have one kitty of my own who is the biggest cuddle bug. I work as a nurse, so I am more than willing to administer medications or injections. I have experience with elderly and special needs pets as well.
About: I have been caring for animals for several years now and can't get enough of it. Animals have a special place in my heart because of how genuine they are.

My schedule is very flexible and easily accommodating. I've got all the time in the world to hang out and give attention to your pets! Any pet that walks in my house gets plenty of love and affection. This extends to pets I'm looking after in other locations as well. I have no shortage of love for animals!
About: I have a large extended family and I have been everybody's go to pet sitter since I was in highschool. I especially fell in love with animal care when I stayed with my aunt's elderly cat for 4 months. He had such personality and required special medicine. I often took care of my employer's dog and bunny when she was out of town. More recently I have begun to watch friends dogs and cats or run to their homes for emergency potty breaks when they've gotten stuck at work. My schedule is limited because I work in retail full time. My schedule is not the same every day. I typically work 9 to 5:30, but some days may deviate. If your animal is unable to be left alone for at least 4 hours at a time, I may not be the best fit for you. I am unable to provide care in my home as I live in a small apartment. I can take care of all your pets needs in your home and am happy to follow any directions and special requests.

“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.”
“He took care of our 4 legs kids for first time. Taking care of old dog and young dog are not easy , especially at first time till they get used to with new environment and new friends. I think he did a good job. He send me one picture and gave me status of feeding. If we need to give him least opinion, that will be yard need to be picks up little.”
“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!”

“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.”

About: I have always had pets in my home my whole life both dogs and cats I am more of a dog person but I absolutely love caring for all animals and I know how difficult it can be depending on the animal my parents most recent dog was a handful he was in and out of several homes before finding his way to ours because of he’s very energetic and sometimes violent behavior but we turned him to a sweetie with time and good training. At first he was rather aggressive towards me and was very difficult to train because of how long he had gone without training which taught me a lot of tricks to deal with a difficult and aggressive dog. I love this job and I hope your pet will enjoy my company as much as I’ll enjoy theirs. I have bathed dogs helped bathe a cat with flees and I’m down to learn anything if you’ll help show me.

“I just love this human for my pup!!!!! My pup LuCee is a very picky girl. On the meet and greet LuCee fell in love with Christine!! I could tell immediately it was a great fit.

About: I've taken care of a variety of dogs since I was very young. I grew up with labs and I am very comfortable with all sizes of dogs. 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.
About: I have had my own dogs for about 9 years now! They are a golden doodle, a poodle, and a bernedoole! I have experience watching all kinds of dogs and would love to take care of yours! I work as a Nurse in the area so I work 2-3 times a week 12 hour shifts. Those days I wouldn’t be able to help, but am looking to help anyone on my days off! I currently have two dogs at home that I watch in a fenced yard! I have experience working with all kinds of dogs and am able to accommodate according to how you like raising your dogs!
About: I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and cats, and I'm comfortable following each pet's routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible while their owner is away. I've cared for a puppy for over a week, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and keeping up with their daily schedule. I also have experience caring for adult dogs by providing walks, meals, exercise, and companionship. In addition, I've cared for cats by feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, and spending time with them throughout the day. When house sitting, I also take care of basic household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail and packages, taking out the trash, and helping keep your home tidy while you're away. I follow instructions carefully, respect your home, and I'm happy to send updates and photos so you know your pets and home are being well cared for. I work remotely Monday through Friday, typically from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. Because I'm home during the day, I can take breaks for walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime, and I can provide regular attention throughout the day. I'm available for pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking on both weekdays and weekends, and I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine whenever possible. I always try to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other care your pet is used to. I know every pet is different, so I'm happy to adjust to their needs and personality.

About: Grew up on a farm with lots of cats and dogs. I have a 15-year-old border collie mix that can no longer go for long walks. Hoping for the opportunity to take some other pups on walks too! I work as a nurse, so I am more than willing to administer medications and injections. Being that I have an elderly dog myself, I am no stranger to senior care or special needs. I currently work as a nurse full-time, but I am available most days to help with taking your dog out or checking in on your kitty. I am available most weekends as well. I cannot offer pet boarding, but I am willing to check in on your furry family members! I am always willing to lend a hand when life gets busy. I can administer CPR, medications, and injections as well.
About: I have always loved animals and taking care of them. I have had my two dogs for 13 years and sadly, one of them passed away recently. I had other pets before that as well. I frequently watch, feed, play with, walk, and let out other people’s dogs and care for their cats. I cherish my time with animals, and I will treat your pet like my own by giving them the love and attention they deserve. I’m currently working 3 days a week. 7am-5:15 pm on Tuesdays, 12pm-5pm on Wednesdays, and 7am-about 4:45pm on Thursdays. I do get an hour for lunch, so I can swing over to the house for your pet if they can’t be alone all day. Unfortunately, my landlord only allows pets that are okayed by them, so I cannot have your pet at my house. But I can come to you and care for your pet(s). With pet sitting in your home, I can spend the night there or do nighttime care and morning care. I can also come multiple times a day and potentially stay all day on the weekend.
About: I’m always available and able to give your pet consistent, one-on-one attention. Because I’m home full-time, I can build a real relationship with your pet—whether they need extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone they can trust while you’re away. I’m currently not working, so I spend most of my time at home helping my mom around the house—plenty of time to give your pet lots of attention and play. My only weekly commitment is bar league volleyball on Tuesday evenings, and if your pet’s social, they’re more than welcome to tag along and meet the crew! Our home is spacious, both inside and out, with a big yard and plenty of room for your pet to feel comfortable. We have friends and family visiting often, so there’s always friendly energy around. While we haven’t had a pet in a while, everyone here loves animals—this experience might just inspire us to welcome one of our own.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds, including dogs, cats, and rabbits.

Your pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow care instructions closely and make sure pets are supervised, secure, and stress-free. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and any special needs they may have. My home is calm, clean, and pet friendly. I make sure doors and windows are secured, remove any potential hazards, and provide plenty of space for pets to relax and feel at home. I’m very attentive during walks and outings and always use leashes, unless otherwise instructed.

I am currently a student at UWL and my main job varies with hours so I have a flexible schedule on taking care of dogs and cats! I am enrolled in online summer courses but they are at my own pace which allows for more availability! I always make sure that dogs/cats that I am taking care of are out for the right period of time to ensure all their energy is out. I make sure to clean up any messes and ensure that the dogs/cats are well taken care of.
About: Hi, my name is Megan. I have been volunteering at my local Humane Society, for over 2 years, so I’ve had lots of experience with so many different breeds of dogs! I enjoy all types of animals. Potty breaks I know are important along with tons of play time. I am able to learn/ adapt to your pets needs! All animals are wonderful in my eyes! Lots of pets and scratches, and belly rubs also included! I personally would love to be able to watch your pets. It’s my dream job I’d say! I’m very laidback, and have a calm personality . Also I’ll treat your pet as I would my very own. I work part time! So most days I am available to walk or watch your animals! Just message me to talk more about how I can care for your animal(s)! I would do anything for my animals. There is a fenced in big back yard! My 2 dogs love it. I keep my two dogs as healthy as possible! I love them like family.
About: Hi all! I’m one of those, I love animals more than people types. (No offense to any of you) ☺️ I ugly cry when I see an animal get hurt on TV or in the movies. My mom told me that when I was younger, I used to feed all the ants on our patio bread and my most infamous rescues were saving a one-winged fly and rescuing a bee from drowning in a puddle. *proud moments for me* 😁 I have always had pets growing up, both dogs and cats and several other critters. I currently own 3 dogs that are rescues. I have fostered dogs plus taken care of my friend’s pets and I have experience with pets of all ages including senior and blind dogs as well. The reason I joined Rover is because I have a passion for not only helping animals but people as well. Thank you for taking your time to read this and please reach out if I can help! ❤️ 🐾 As of right now, I am free every day and I am willing to try work with your schedule. Please reach out if you have any specific questions. 🐾 At this time I am not currently caring for any pets in my home due to my three dogs but I also feel that it’s best for a pet to stay in their own home if at all possible. They are way more comfortable and happy in their own space plus it’s easier for them to stick to their normal routine at home. I prefer to go by their normal routine if at all possible. I will discuss specifics for each individual animal as we know they are all different and have their own unique personalities. Together we will find out what works best for both you and them. 🐾

“Millie loved her time at Ty’s! She doesn’t always like to eat when given the opportunity to play with other dogs, but Ty worked with her and was able to get her to eat her meals:)”
“Zoe really enjoyed staying at Jamie's house with her family and dogs. She is always playing and smiling in the photos. Jamie was very accommodating in extending Zoe's stay.”
“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”
“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”
“Jared was very helpful and accommodating. Princess was well taken care of and had a lot of cuddles from everyone in the family. I will contact again next time I need a sitter for Princess!”
“Janelle and Chris were excellent. They were very flexible and accommodating from start to finish. From the time you arrive you can feel their passion toward your pet as if it were there own. It was comforting as we knew Duke would be in good hands and hopefully he behaved well for them! Great young and energetic couple with compassion for your pet.”
About: What sets me apart is my wide range of hands-on experience caring for pets with all kinds of needs, personalities, and ages. I’ve worked with young dogs, senior dogs, medium and large breeds, tiny dogs, blind cats, and multi-pet households—and I’m confident handling just about any situation. I’ve cared for 1–3 dogs at a time, 2–5 cats, and households with both dogs and cats together, making me comfortable managing different temperaments and routines at once. I’m also experienced with pets in heat, pets requiring extra patience, and animals who need gentle guidance or special attention. Above all, I’m calm, responsible, and detail-oriented. I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and loved—whether it’s through slow introductions, careful monitoring, maintaining routines, or giving them the extra comfort they need. I am currently enrolled in college at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I have access to a car, so I have the ability to travel to get to jobs. I have frequent breaks throughout my days and nights, and weekends are open. I also have the ability to stay overnight if needed or desired. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and currently have two cats and two dogs back home, so I’m very comfortable providing consistent, loving, and attentive care. I also participate in the Doggy Day Out program through the Coulee Region Humane Society, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. In addition, I frequently help care for friends’ cats, giving me experience with a variety of feline personalities and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable. This includes following feeding schedules, providing plenty of exercise, giving treats (if allowed), cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water, and offering lots of affection and companionship. I always make sure the home stays clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos. My approach is calm, reliable, and detail-oriented—I make sure every pet feels cared for, understood, and stress-free while you’re away.
“What a great experience! Lauren communicates well and shred lots of pictures. Buddy got along with her dogs. Best of all Buddy felt comfortable enough to eat. Highly recommend Lauren.”
“Monica was so great with our dog Finn while we were away for a weekend. She was super responsive and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her!”
“Rebekah was great! Lots of playtime and walks. Blaze had a great time. Also appreciated photos and updates. I felt very comfortable leaving her even though it was her first time there. Woukd definitely go back again. Thanks so much!”
“Wendy and Dean provided a warm, loving and safe environment for our precious, Fiona. Prior to Fiona’s stay at the farm, Fiona had not been separated from my husband or me. We were apprehensive about leaving Fiona, during our 11 day, out of the country trip. Although, net service was rarely available, Wendy, frequently updated us with photos of Fiona. My husband and I were relieved and appreciative of the care Fiona, received from Wendy and Dean. In the future we will not hesitate to schedule Fiona’s, stay with Wendy and Dean.”
