“Karen took great care of our boy- very communicative and patient with his minor separation anxiety- if we find ourselves back in town we’ll be happy to work with her again!”
“Diane and Dale went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule and care for Oliver. He fit right in with their dog, Lexi, enjoyed the walks around the pond and was well-loved. I highly recommend them!”
“Our pup had a great time at Gilian's house! Gillian sent pictures and updates on his day each evening. She was extremely organized and easy to communicate with. She even worked on some training commands with him over his almost week long stay. Our pup came home tired and happy.”
“Our dog had a great stay with Emily and Bryan. They were wonderful, sending lots of videos and pictures throughout the stay. We knew that our dog was getting exercise, playtime and lots of cuddles! We will definitely book with them in the future!!”
“Monique was wonderful!! She kept up great communication and photos. My dog has separation anxiety and it’s clear he was comfortable in her home. Will definitely have him stay with Monique the next time we are in the area. Thanks, Monique!!!”
“Rebecca and her family took excellent care of our dog Evie while we were out of town. She was wonderful at communicating—sending us regular updates and adorable pictures that really helped us relax and enjoy our trip. We could tell Evie was happy, loved, and getting plenty of playtime and attention. Communication was spot-on from booking through drop-off, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. We’re already planning to book with Rebecca again next time we travel—she’s our new go-to sitter! Highly recommend Rebecca and her family to anyone needing a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Josh and Cheryl were absolutely incredible with our dog, Tuck. He’s a high-energy, challenging pup who needs a lot of stimulation, and they went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for, engaged, and happy. They were attentive, active, and cared for him like their own. When his collar broke, they even bought him a new one without hesitation—such a thoughtful gesture that speaks to how much they truly care. We also loved receiving regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t recommend them more highly—if we could give more than 5 stars, we would!”
“Mia had a great stay with Mary. Mary sent us photo's of Mia , she looked very comfortable. Mary seems to be a caring person that is concerned greatly with our pets stay with her. We recommend Mary as a sitter. Thank you MARY”
“SO happy we found Judy! I am 100% THAT helicopter dog mom and was so anxious trying Rover for the first time. That anxiety was completely extinguished with Judy! She took such good care of our pup, Obi, and I loved that she sent so many pictures and updates during his stay! Obi also came home totally pooped out from all the playing he did! Literally every dog parent’s dream! We can’t wait to use Judy again in the future!”
“Cathy was very easy to work with from beginning to end! Our little 8 month old Lemmy had a blast with her and her daughters! He was in great hands. Would highly recommend her. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”
“Boarding experience review) This is our first dog, and our first time using Rover, and Salena helped put ease to our mind! She sent pictures of our puppy and was really flexible to work with. Bale slept so good when he came home, and he looked like he had the best time! We will definitely be using her again! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Ann and Arman were awesome hosts for Finn while I was traveling for work. They treated him like family, and he clearly settled in quickly (note that they did a great job of providing pictures and updates). He enjoyed his walks with them, loved playing with their children, and was treated with love! Ann and Arman were a joy to work with, and Finn looks forward to returning soon.”
“Yolanda was such a blessing to me and my Rottweiler, Riley! Upon arrival to pickup, Riley was very comfortable with Yolanda and her husband. They made her feel like she was part of the family. Yolanda was gracious enough to accept my request for boarding Riley on a holiday weekend and even agreed to keep her an extra hour later on short notice without charge. I would definitely want Riley to be in Yolanda's care for any future boarding needs.”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Ryan did an excellent job taking care of our English Shepard Tina. He exercised her and sent pics showing how comfortable she was staying with Ryan and his dog. I'd recommend Ryan to all.”
“Brittni & family were the best dog family we could ever ask for! Luna got along great with their dogs and kids. Brittni sent pictures of Luna with the family and out on walks. Highly recommend!”
“Emma was awesome! She had our shetland sheepdog for over two weeks. We did a meet and greet to make sure everyone would get along. It went well and we were very comfortable leaving Nikki for a long time with Emma. Communication was fast for everything. Emma sent pics and an update almost everyday. Nikki was clearly enjoying herself. We would definitely have Emma dogsit Nikki again.”

“Cindy is an awesome sitter who tolerated bad kitty behavior and found ways to deter it! Kitties were fed, boxes were cleaned, and those who wanted love were given attention. ❤️ Even our terrified little torbie came out of hiding to check her out! Highly recommend!”
“We will use Gina over and over again! She is thoughtful, responsive, courteous, and (most importantly) wonderful with our dogs. We are so lucky to have someone like Gina who cares for our fur babies the way we do.”
“Katie was amazing!! I’m such a worried pet mom and this was our first time using Rover. Katie is very detailed oriented, she took our requests and implemented them wonderfully. She sent great updates, photos, and you could tell our super shy and picky girl Fern LOVED her. We would definitely hire Katie again in a heartbeat.”
“Great experience! Sadie bonds so well with Bonnie and took extra care with her special feeding needs.I really appreciated the updates and felt completely at ease knowing Bonnie was in such good hands.I will definitely book with her again.”
“Maria consistently does a fantastic job taking care of my pets. She arrives promptly during the designated time, ensures they have their potty breaks, refreshes their water, and gives them plenty of love and attention. Her Rover cards are detailed and include lots of pictures. I know that are in good hands with her!”
“Robert is very conscientious and provided wonderful care for not only our cat, but also filled our bird feeders, watered plants, and kept a great eye on our home in our absence. Our cat is very shy and has always hid from prior pet sitters. Robert's calm approach enabled him to not only take photos of her but she was actually talking to him after the first couple of visits! We highly recommend Robert to care for pets in his home or in the pets' homes; he kept us informed and enabled us to enjoy our vacation knowing our beloved pet was being well cared for.”

I typically arrive with small treats in a pouch to share, ensuring my greeting is always positive. While at your home, I will ensure your pet receives exercise/play, multiple potty breaks, and refill water/food as needed. I believe in positive reinforcement, ensuring my interactions with your pet are always kind and respectful.

“This was our first time to use Rover and we were very happy with our experience. Renee was wonderful. We used her for drop-in visits for our cats. When came home to find that our cats had topped off food bowls, lots of water, clean litter boxes and no messes. We will definitely book Renee the next time we travel!”
“Valerie is by far the best cat sitter we have ever had. And I’ve had some good ones. She’s super sweet and clearly loves animals. She’s easily available to meet, swap keys, and always sends pictures and leaves a note. I hope she is our sitter for a very long time.”

About: I My boyfriend & I have 4 cats of our own- ages 17, 16, & 7 months. The best thing about cats is they all have their own unique personalities, & that goes to show in our household!

With our senior cats I have had to give pastes, oral medications, & topical ointments. I am no stranger to feeding wet food, or doing daily litter box cleans!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Batavia
“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!”

Your dog will have access to kitchen, living/dining room, bathroom, and up to 3 bedrooms. Basement will not be accessible.
“Meagan is a 10/10, would definitely recommend!! Meagan is an amazing dog sitter and gives us the peace of mind we needed. Our puppy, Finnegan, runs to her at drop off and has a fun-filled day with lots of indoor and outdoor activity with built in rest time as well. Meagan is extremely mindful and takes the best care of our puppy.”
“Judy and Paul provide the perfect day care for our lab. She needs security and activity. Judy ‘s place is very dog friendly and Paul made sure Rona had supervised play that included fetch, Rona’s favorite pastime. I would recommend Judy and would plan to use her dog care service whenever we are back in the area.”
“Best Rover ever. My corgis were so happy with the two days they were there and they usually never get that excited with anyone else. Recommending everyone in Milwaukee area to go see her for doggy needs”

About: Growing up, my mom was the Eau Claire County Humane Officer, FEMA Animal Emergency Management volunteer coordinator, and general manager of the Chippewa County Humane Association. Throughout my childhood I helped care for thousands of dogs, cat, rabbits, and even a handful of lizards and snakes. I am well versed in animal behavior, safety, and empathy! I am new to the world of personalized in home care, but hope to gain your trust and grow my experience. I am a homeschooling mom of one 6 year old (who LOVES dogs!) and our schedule is very flexible. We have a 3 year old animal friendly Australian Shepherd who we walk daily within our neighborhood, on the interurban trail (5 minute walk away) and run off lease on the beach when there's no one around! My 6 year old is very animal empathetic, and is always learning behavior and cues from our own Aussie. Having a high energy household, I understand the importance of plenty of time spent outside. We live in a large, upper, 2 bedroom apartment and can easily accommodate temporary space for one or two more pets (of the same family). We have a park with an open field for playing ball, and the interurban trail are both a short walk away. We have plenty of green space around our building for shorter potty breaks. I have a large Ruffland crate available for your pets use.
“Cyen is great! My very shy pup warmed up to her in no time. The fenced in yard is nice for potty breaks and playing chase. Communication was great, Cyen even sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”

About: Have you struggled with finding peace of mind, knowing your dog is loved & cared for while you are gone? I can totally relate to that. Finding someone special to take care of our dogs, when we are gone; is so important. I am a dog lover through and through. I treat them like they are part of the family because THEY ARE. I am excited to PAMPER yours. I work from home with a flexible schedule so I am here to take care of your fur baby all day. My husband is also here to assist. We have a bichon named Lexie who we adore. Unfortunately we lost our loving shitzu Lucy back in Feb at age 13. Dogs are very much a part of our lives. We have cared for dogs of all sizes. We do prefer non shedding. We have a 2 acre yard to explore when we go for walks on a leash. Dogs love to walk with us daily around our 1 acre pond. When dogs go outside, we have a large leash that we hook them on for their potty needs to keep them safe as well as for them to safely explore when we are not with them. I do daily walks with my dog. Dogs are welcome to sleep with us; just like our Lexie does. We look forward to PAMPERING your special family member.

I have over 15 years of experience with animals and I would love to help you and your fur babies. Shoot me a message for a meet and greet! I look forward to meeting you and all of your fur babies soon! I also offer farm help, as I have experience with smaller livestock. Goats, chickens, guinea hens, ducks etc. Rates and payment options can be discussed in person as I'm unable to add an option for that on here 😀 Having pets of my own, I am constantly taking care of them. Filling their water dishes, giving them their food on time. Making sure they are getting the proper exercise they need. Monthly nail trimmings. Daily exercise inside and outside of my house. Keeping their indoor and outdoor areas clean of 💩 and anything that could be potentially harmful to all pets. I always make sure there is accessible water for all the pets in my home. I also keep feeding schedules logged into my calendar on my phone so that no one ever misses a feeding. Pups go outside at least once an hour unless they show that they need to go out more frequently. Also provide play time, with running around the fenced in yard, playing with toys and tons of snuggles on the couches!

“Our pup had a great time at Gilian's house! Gillian sent pictures and updates on his day each evening. She was extremely organized and easy to communicate with. She even worked on some training commands with him over his almost week long stay. Our pup came home tired and happy.”
“Our dog had a great stay with Emily and Bryan. They were wonderful, sending lots of videos and pictures throughout the stay. We knew that our dog was getting exercise, playtime and lots of cuddles! We will definitely book with them in the future!!”
“Monique was wonderful!! She kept up great communication and photos. My dog has separation anxiety and it’s clear he was comfortable in her home. Will definitely have him stay with Monique the next time we are in the area. Thanks, Monique!!!”
“Rebecca and her family took excellent care of our dog Evie while we were out of town. She was wonderful at communicating—sending us regular updates and adorable pictures that really helped us relax and enjoy our trip. We could tell Evie was happy, loved, and getting plenty of playtime and attention. Communication was spot-on from booking through drop-off, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. We’re already planning to book with Rebecca again next time we travel—she’s our new go-to sitter! Highly recommend Rebecca and her family to anyone needing a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Josh and Cheryl were absolutely incredible with our dog, Tuck. He’s a high-energy, challenging pup who needs a lot of stimulation, and they went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for, engaged, and happy. They were attentive, active, and cared for him like their own. When his collar broke, they even bought him a new one without hesitation—such a thoughtful gesture that speaks to how much they truly care. We also loved receiving regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t recommend them more highly—if we could give more than 5 stars, we would!”
“SO happy we found Judy! I am 100% THAT helicopter dog mom and was so anxious trying Rover for the first time. That anxiety was completely extinguished with Judy! She took such good care of our pup, Obi, and I loved that she sent so many pictures and updates during his stay! Obi also came home totally pooped out from all the playing he did! Literally every dog parent’s dream! We can’t wait to use Judy again in the future!”
“Boarding experience review) This is our first dog, and our first time using Rover, and Salena helped put ease to our mind! She sent pictures of our puppy and was really flexible to work with. Bale slept so good when he came home, and he looked like he had the best time! We will definitely be using her again! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Ann and Arman were awesome hosts for Finn while I was traveling for work. They treated him like family, and he clearly settled in quickly (note that they did a great job of providing pictures and updates). He enjoyed his walks with them, loved playing with their children, and was treated with love! Ann and Arman were a joy to work with, and Finn looks forward to returning soon.”
“Yolanda was such a blessing to me and my Rottweiler, Riley! Upon arrival to pickup, Riley was very comfortable with Yolanda and her husband. They made her feel like she was part of the family. Yolanda was gracious enough to accept my request for boarding Riley on a holiday weekend and even agreed to keep her an extra hour later on short notice without charge. I would definitely want Riley to be in Yolanda's care for any future boarding needs.”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Ryan did an excellent job taking care of our English Shepard Tina. He exercised her and sent pics showing how comfortable she was staying with Ryan and his dog. I'd recommend Ryan to all.”
“Brittni & family were the best dog family we could ever ask for! Luna got along great with their dogs and kids. Brittni sent pictures of Luna with the family and out on walks. Highly recommend!”
“My dog had a wonderful time at this house and I received many pictures of her having fun. The family was also accommodating to our needs when we had some trouble getting back at the time we predicted.”
“Frankie took great care of my dogs Remy and Izzy. This was their first time being cared for by someone new and I felt she was patient and caring for their needs and anxiety. I would rebook again!”
“Scott was great!! He was very accommodating with all of Sadie’s needs and our concerns. He mentioned a few activities that he would do and showed us where Sadie would go out and play. The area was fenced in and very secure. He has two dogs of his own and they were very friendly and Sadie got along great with them.We felt very comfortable after dropping Sadie with Scott. We highly recommend him, and would certainly use his services anytime.”
“Taylor was great! She gave us updates throughout the stay and made our dog feel at home. She was quick to respond initially when we were setting up. We are ecstatic to find a great dog sitter nearby!”
“I think Max loved his stay with Patricia and her family. (Who really knows?) For us, the location and arrangements were very convenient. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Laura boarded Wiley for a weekend. Wiley was well taken care of and enjoyed her Yard. Wiley often has anxiety when we are gone but adapted to Laura and family nicely. He was a happy boy when we picked him up. Laura sent photos and communicated how Wiley was adapting. All went perfectly. I highly recommend Laura to watch your dog.”
