“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!”

“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!”

“Our 2 dogs stayed at Sarah's for about a week earlier this month. The stay was great! We got daily updates, including photos and videos. They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”

“My dog Leo had an exceptional stay with Derek and Yoki. I highly recommend booking with them. They kept me informed of how he was doing with updates and photos.

Leo can’t wait for his next visit!”

“We boarded our dog Charlotte for three nights at Kayla's and are really happy that we did. Charlotte enjoyed her stay a lot, she was so tired after he fetched her!

“I knew Ashley would be the perfect fit to check in on our 19 year old cat, Pumpkin, while we were out of town for 11 days. Ashley quickly responded to my inquiry, is friendly and kind, a great communicator, and flexible. She even took in our garbage cans for us. I know that Pumpkin was well cared for and received lots of attention while we were away. I loved receiving the photos of Pumpkin that Ashley sent. I highly recommend Ashley. She will definitely be my go-to sitter for Pumpkin.”

“Brianna is absolutely wonderful! Not only takes good care of our 3 cats & the house, but really spends the time & effort to win the cats over… Brianna’s enthusiasm & joy in taking care of these kitties really makes a difference. The best!!”

“Ashley is amazing. We’ve been having her visit with our cat Todd for over a year. He is becoming more high maintenance as he ages and now she’s been on puke duty and hasn’t questioned things one bit. She is easy to talk to and always keeps us in the loop. I highly recommend booking with her for any of your pet sitting needs.”


“Shelly was wonderful with our two cats. One of them is an elderly diabetic, and she administered insulin without any issues. She also sent photos, which we loved—it was so nice to see the cats while we were away.”


“Sarah was awesome! Took great care of our kitties, including administering an inhaler for one of our cats. Also was able to coax our very shy cat out of his shell. Definitely recommend her!”


About: I’ve lived with up to 5 cats at a time, I’m very experienced with cats with different needs and ones that might not get along all the time, I also know how important it is to play with cats when I have the time
“Angel was so kind and attentive to my cat Miso! Lots of great pictures and daily updates, which were so appreciated. 😊 Miso loved all the pets and cuddles! Thank you for your help!”


“Megan did fantastic with my cat Sunny. She always kept me up to date, sent lots of pictures, and Sunny can be a bit shy with people, but Megan was very patient with her, and Sunny ended up being a complete love bug to her and felt super comfortable. Definitely will be booking with her again!! Thank you so much.”


About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and will continue to do so, currently at both houses I have seven cats total that are all extremely loved and cared for by me and my family members. I won't hesitate to care for any and all pets if I'm available!

“Carly took care of Chester for 1 week as drop-in sitter. My cat looks healthy and handsome as ever. I arrive with a chatty cat greeting me and I get it. I will book Carly again in the future because she not only took care of my cat’s needs (spoiled-prince) but she also respected my place and she is trustworthy and professional.”

“Shelly was so great with my Vinnie. It was his first time staying with Shelly and he clearly had a blast. He came home happy but exhausted - perfect win. I'm so grateful Shelly was willing and able to care for Vinnie on pretty short notice - we will definitely be back :)”

“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!”

“Angel was very accommodating with my last minute request and sent tons of photos throughout the day which I appreciated! Merlin had a blast with her dog Bell and her son! He came home tired & ready to rest which is always a nice bonus 😊 I would definitely rebook and recommend Angel for any dogs needs.”

About: I took care of my family's dog until I moved to college, and I really miss having a dog! Rover is perfect because it will allow me to satisfy my love for dogs while fitting with my schedule and helping you. I am also hoping to get a dog in the near future. I enjoy running and walking so having a dog with energy is not a problem as long as they are leash trained. I’m currently working from home full time. I can be flexible on when walks occur but am fairly busy between 8-5 and need some heads up to plan around meetings. I do not have a fenced in yard but will take your dog on frequent walks or as needed if you’re booking that service. I’m careful to follow instructions on how to get into your house for walks and lock up on the way out.
“Cynthia was amazing with Popsicle. She really looooves dogs, and she treated Popsicle like family. Popsicle gets so excited when she sees Cynthia! Cynthia sends beautiful photos and the cutest ‘pupdates’ I’ve ever read. Can’t recommend Cynthia enough and have booked her on a recurring basis!”

“Hi Elizabeth, I just wanted to say thank you for taking such great care of Fox! I really appreciated the updates while I was away. It’s clear you gave her lots of attention and care, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable with you. I’d absolutely trust you again and would happily recommend you to others. Thanks again!”
“Our 3 dogs love going to Kara’s. They run in the door and barely look back at us. We know they’re having a great time by the photos Kara sends us during their stay. She takes wonderful care of them.”

“Our dog Halla is a rescue dog and he is very scared and nervous around new people. Robert has watched him few times and I am grateful that he understands that Halla needs time and space to get to know him. I am sure Halla will be in good hands when our family goes on a vacation this summer.”

“We are not from Madison, but just in town for one evening. Meghan’s communication was excellent from the beginning to the end. We talked about our situation and what we needed for care later in the evening. Meghan provided fantastic care for Moose - playing lots of fetch and helping him with his nervous separation. She took and shared lots of photos and brought him on 3 walks. Her profile was thoughtful and drew us in - we knew she would be the perfect fit. We are thankful for her hospitality and letting us park our car in front of her house while we were in town for a football game. If we are in the Madison area again, we will hire Meghan to hang out with Moose. Thank you! ??”

About: I genuine care and give attention to every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies who are still learning routines, including basic training and potty schedules, and I’m also gentle and mindful with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra comfort. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I currently work only 2 days out of the week, but my schedule is very flexible, and can switch days if need be! Will accommodate I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable and follow the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention so pets feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and make sure pets stay on their normal schedule. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and any special instructions from the owner to make sure they feel happy and cared for.
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.
“Wolfy had such a great day with Mary and her family. He can back very happy, and Mary sent several lovely photos of his time. Mary was also flexible with me when my plans changed after booking, which was so appreciated.”
“Julie did great job making me and my dog Stella Watson very comfortable from meet and greet thru 1st daycare visit. Stella had wonderful time playing with Zilla and zooming around the yard and house. Will be hoping to visit again soon!”

About: I started pet sitting at age 12. I’m comfortable with all animals from exotic to barnyard (ex. Horses, pigs, bearded dragons, wolf-dogs, fox, skunks, parrots and ferrets). I have had my dog for seven years, and my senior cat for one year. I currently do Rover full-time! I am a busy bee- I’m also a student at Edgewood College and a new mom! I love taking regulars and new clients! My pets are crate trained and respect boundaries. I also have baby gates for separation. I do not require crate training but it is extremely helpful if your pet is, so please let me know!

“Shelly is AMAZING!! So attentive, great communication, thorough follow through, and just all around wonderful! We completely recommend Shelly for anyone wanting help with their fur babies! So comforting to be reassured there are still great people in the world, and Shelly truly is one of the great ones!”

About: I always had a dog. The house isn’t a home if you don’t have a dog. Family brings there dog over. Every one gets along I’m working part time . Will have time to play and walk your dog. I care for dogs. I have a dog name Louie. We’re always outside I have a big fenced in yard . I have a dog so my house is dog proof. I have a one story house on a quiet street.

About: I was mommy to Buster for 15 years. Buster was a little 20 pound mutt who was my best friend. He went everywhere with me. Buster has been gone for 2 years now and I still miss him. I am in search of the companionship and the unconditional love he gave me. I am looking to have fun, earn some extra money and find that love and companionship animals can give to us. Watching other peoples four legged friends will give my children and I a chance to give back and help others while in turn we will gain the fun and love dogs give to us. I have to say I like dogs more than I like most people, they never judge and love us no matter what. I am a caregiver by nature and I would love to care for dogs again.
“Ernst is super friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We have 70 lbs adolescent pup who has a lot of energy to give. Ernst is great at keeping our pup in line. I already notice an improvement in our pet’s loose leash walking!”

About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.
“Emmery is fantastic. She shows up on-time. She is super sweet and my dog loved her. She was so good with Nyx that the next day, when Nyx heard the knock on the door, she was already up and heading to the door in excitement! What more could you ask for?”

About: I have owned dogs my entire life and currently care for three of my own, giving me a wealth of hands-on experience with various breeds and temperaments. I’m skilled in providing personalized care, whether it’s for energetic puppies needing training and structure or senior dogs requiring extra patience and gentle attention. My lifelong dedication to dogs means I understand their unique needs and behaviors, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. Over winter I'm am extremely free so I would be more then willing to spend lots of time with your pets. I am open to helping out at anytime so long as we communicate ahead of time! I have 3 dogs at home who I take on walks daily in new and fun location. I love to explore the world with my dogs. I am willing to meet your pets needs and help out in any way that is necessary.
About: I have 2 large rescues that have been a part of my family for the last 9 years. When I lived in apartments, I helped watch other neighbors' dogs and always enjoyed getting to know them and learn about their routines, hobbies, and quirks. While my family never had a dog growing up, I love being around them now and could never go back to a life without them! Since I work part time at a local farm, and am only just getting my own farm up and running, I have a relatively flexible schedule from week to week, especially during the winter, early spring, and late fall. I am thorough when it comes to taking care of my dogs' health and safety, as well as the health and safety of all pets that are in my care. I am always vigilant about traffic while walking dogs near any roads, and am always careful of walking them near other animals. When in another's home I am respectful of boundaries and rules and always clean up after myself or any messes that a pet may make.
About: I have many years of dog sitting for family members with 5 different dogs ! I volunteered at Dane County Humane Society for 3 years - dog walking and cleaning facility and dog areas . I had 2 Rottweilers that I lived with for 5 years and assisted to care for them an additional 5 years . As a kid we had a family dog - standard poodle for 7 years . I absolutely LOVE all dogs and not only can I help dog owners but would greatly enjoy the time i care for and quality time I spend with your dogs ! After work which ends at 500 pm I am available for walking dogs ! I also am available on weekends for walks . I’m very flexible with my schedule as I don’t have any pets of my own . I don’t have pets at home presently . When I did live with dogs the priority was getting home to walk and feed them on the same schedule daily

About: I love caring for animals! I have always been asked to care for pets when my loved ones, friends, coworkers, or neighbors are away. I make homemade dog treats with my dogs and I’m sure they will share! I have cared for all ages of dogs, all needs of dogs. If your dog is friendly, and you would be interested in letting them play with my dog Ozzie to wear out some energy, that is an option as long as they can meet first! Nothing beats a middle of the day play date! I can be flexible in my schedule but sometimes it changes fast, I promise to keep my schedule as up to date as I can. When I am not caring for pets, I work full time as an RN. Please note all my rates are negotiable. I do work 12-13hr shifts full time as a RN. With that, I promise to be upfront and honest about my hours so we can figure out additional care if needed. My schedule varies every week so I often have free time during the week. I work every 3rd weekend. I can come by and spend time with your pets, I can take them for walks, make homemade treats with them, or just give them belly rubs and ear scratches! Let me know what you need so we can work it out.
About: I’m an incoming veterinary student and pet owner. I’ve grown up taking care of my cat and dog and love spending my time with animals. I have worked as a veterinary assistant for the past 3 years. Daily dog walks are an important part of my routine and I have a flexible schedule. I love meeting new people and animals on the island! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and am an active person. I also keep my dog leashed and am amenable to dog’s specific needs.
“Lindsay is amazing!! She was able to come over and take my golden retriever for a walk and to the dog park. She also has a dog who was able to join in on the fun, which is always great for my dog who loves to play! She’s super kind and easy to work with. I definitely recommend her, and will be booking her again in the future!”

“I needed some last minute help with my senior dog, and Alissa responded back quickly and was able to help me out!! She came to meet our pets and get the layout, and helped us out almost right away! She is very kind and gentle with our Murphy and even gives our two cats some loving even though we booked her for a dog walk! As someone with OCD and anxiety, my brain and body feel comfortable and safe with Alissa taking care of our senior puppy when we aren’t at home. Looking forward to hopefully booking with her again!!”

About: I grew up on a farm, which is pretty much where my animal obsession began! I was surrounded by cows, pigs, horses, chickens, cats, dogs — basically if it had fur, feathers, or hooves, I probably helped take care of it. Growing up around so many different animals taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and how every animal has their own unique personality. Ever since then, animals have just naturally been a huge part of my life! I’m a full-time nurse with a flexible schedule, since I only work 3–4 days a week. That means I have plenty of time, energy, and attention to dedicate to your furry friends! Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I accommodate to every pets needs! I have crates, I do structured playtime and go on long walks to exert energy. I also have a friendly dogs who would love to keep your pet company.
About: I’ve been a dog sitter for over four years to a family that travels quite a bit! I also help my neighbors walk and feed their pets when they are gone! I also have a cat of my own in my hometown and love to spoil her!! I’m a recent UW grad in between jobs, meaning I have PLENTY of time on my hands to play with your pets!! I am super communicative and notoriously flexible schedule wise - for I want to be with your pets as much as possible!! My home offers a large open concept for your pets to frolic around! My current schedule allows me to be really good with feeding and potty schedules! I do not have a fence, but I will spend my time outside with your animals in my spacious yard and nearby walking paths and parks!
