“Highly recommend, we had a very positive experience using Rover for the first time. Allyson was very prompt in accepting our last minute boarding reservation request and was very flexible. She also sent occasional pictures and updates, which were a pleasant surprise. Our dog appears to have enjoyed her stay; she came home clean, calm, happy and ready for a nap after enjoying her stay.”
“Elizabeth has a wonderful rapport with dogs! Our dog loved staying at her place. He was happy in every photo, and running around with the other dogs when we picked him up. All good signs! Thank you Elizabeth for Bandit’s fun weekend!”
“Madeline was great at communicating and keeping me updated about Ponyo. She sent lots of photos and videos. It looks like Ponyo had a great time! I’m already scheduling my next sitting sesh with Madeline again.”
“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!”
“Great dawg sitter … had to find a place with a short notice and he was flexible and accessible… nice house with fenced in yard so I felt secure as my boys are little … coco and skully were very relaxed when I got them home so I knew they were comfortable in Joe’s setting … highly recommended… and Joe is a very very nice fellow …”
“Excellent care of our pups. Lovely family, nice fenced in yard. Amanda managed the pups very well, and that included medication for one of the dogs and a puppy. She was excellent!”
“My dog Kylo stayed with Kim and her family for the first time for about a week, and although it’s always a little nerve-wracking leaving him with a new sitter, especially for an extended length of time, Kim was gracious and communicative before and during my trip. She sent photos and even reached out when he had some tummy issues so we could help him feel well again. I’m truly grateful to have found her and will definitely book with her again.”
“Chris and Shawnda are true dog lovers. They understand dog behavior and we felt 100% confident leaving our dog in their care. Strider was happily exhausted from 3 days of play!”
“I have never entrusted anyone with my dog before, but I can confidently say that I will never leave him with anyone other than Alia. When I went to pick him up, he was visibly excited to see me, but he barked at me while Alia had him on a leash. His barking is usually a sign of protectiveness, which instantly reassured me that he felt safe and secure with her. As he got closer and recognized me, his excitement became evident, but before leaving with me, he tried to run back towards Alia again, showing just how much he adored her. I didn't take offense to any of this; in fact, I was overjoyed because it demonstrated how much he enjoyed his time with her. If I could change one thing, it would be that she didn't always initiate updates through text. I felt like I had to reach out to get updates, but this didn't bother me because I understand that everyone has their own way of doing things. Perhaps she prefers to provide updates at the end of the day, and I just didn't give her the opportunity to do so since I wanted updates at the beginning of the day. I never communicated this expectation, so I can't fault her for it. Nonetheless, she was always responsive and would reply within the first 2-5 minutes. On the day of pickup, she even offered to give him a bath and blow dry for an additional cost, which I thought was a fantastic gesture. Who wants to bathe their dog after a vacation? Definitely not me! Overall, my experience with her was beyond exceptional, and I would rate it 10000/10. I highly recommend her services as she genuinely loves and cares for dogs. I will never choose anyone else. Plus, my dog came back smelling and looking amazing!”
“Kristy was amazing with my 1 year old Border Collie! He can be a handful but she sent me tons of pictures of him having fun all weekend! I trust her completely and know he was in good hands. He loved the backyard and playing frisbee with her!”
“I would highly recommend Tyler and Caitlyn to watch your dogs! They were very nice and attentive. Nice big yard for playing and seemed to really care about the dogs. We will definitely utilize them again when needed!”
“Erica and Ciara were AMAZING with our little Cavapoo puppy. She was so well taken care of, and we received lots of updates while we were gone about our puppy and what she was up to. Lots of photos too to help with being away from her. Could not recommend Erica and Ciara enough!!!”
“Wendy and her husband as always, do an amazing job. My dog Bear absolutely loves staying there. Wendy does an excellent job giving updates and making sure my pup gets plenty of attention while I’m gone.”
“This was a last-minute booking and my first time leaving my cat, so I was super nervous. Katie was really reassuring and said she’s worked with nervous cats before, which made me feel a lot better. Plus, she has the sweetest and friendliest cat, which was a big bonus for me!”
About: Your pet will have a peaceful stay with lots of love and attention. I will make sure they feel right at home and get all the belly rubs! I work full time from home so if your pet is boarding with me they’ll never be alone, and if I am coming to your home I have some flexibility in my schedule. I love caring for animals! I have lots of nature around my place to take your pet on walks. I have worked as a vet assistant and cared for many dogs, cats, and rabbits in the past.
“Was my first time using the app and they made it a great experience! This was Splash’s first time staying overnight at someone else’s house and they eased my mind with updates and pictures. Very accommodating and makes the process easy!”

About: Ive always had cats. Big cats, little cats, crazy cats, loaf cats...my last boy was a big black tuxedo named Thomas O'Malley the Alley Cat, because he followed me home on foot, as a kitten. Im completely comfortable with whatever needs yours may have
About: As an experienced pet sitter, I am dedicated to providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. From feeding, walking, and playtime to administering medications and maintaining routines, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving attentive, responsible, and personalized care in a stress-free environment I work Monday- Thursday so that allows me to have plenty of time at home with animals on the weekends to give them the time and attention they need. I have a very nice neighborhood with walking paths to make sure animals are getting the exercise and time they need to play around outside.

“Amanda and her helpers were very friendly and happy to have Latte there. Amanda is very sensitive to my bougie little doggie’s needs. I can always tell what kind of care she received by the mood my dog is in when I pick her up and I know she was well loved at Amanda’s house every day. I will use Amanda again for sure!”
About: At one time, we were breeders of Champion Golden Retrievers, and have raised many a pup, from small to large breeds. From Bernese to Yorkies, we love them all! Our furbabies are a Shorkie and Shih Tzu who are well behaved and make great hosts and playmates! Large pastures and trails on which to walk, so lots of exercise. Our canine guests will receive lots of love and attention! They will be welcome in our house if well-behaved, and treated like one of the family during their stay. We have excellent references from previous guests and do our best to make sure our every guest feels right at home. We follow all care guides given by our guests owners, including giving meds and treats as owner provides us. I or my husband are home with our guest dogs during stays. Our guests get lots of attention and care. We want to care for them as they are used to being cared for at home. We have a fenced yard. We back up to mikes of hiking trails for walks and runs always on leash. We walk 3-4 times a day or as often as match the home life of our guests. They are cared for in our home and integrated into being cared for as part of our family with 2 little welcoming fur babies.
“Chris did great with the dogs! 10/10 would recommend to anyone!! He played fetch with our lab until she got tired (who can play fetch FOREVER... seriously forever). He’s very considerate, informative, and a true dog lover! I can tell he does is absolute best to give the pups the excersize and love they need and deserve!”

“Holly seemed to have lots of fun with the other dogs/kitten. She loves to be outside so I'm so glad Maddy takes her on field trips in the country. It was her first day so it took alot to get used to things. Maddy handled well and I had no worries since Maddy checked in during the day.”
About: Hey there! I am an animal lover to the core. Let me be your pet's new best friend while you are away! I recently moved back to the Midwest to be closer to family, about two years ago. I was traveling constantly for work, but am now full time work from home. When I lived in another state for work, I did pet care as a part time job with private clients weekly. I grew to absolutely love it and would love to get established back in Wisconsin. I grew up with dogs, cats, and cows my entire life - being raised on a farm. I am the type of person who can’t stop without petting a dog whenever I see one! Providing companionship to your pet is my favorite thing to do. We can go on walks, eat food, and watch the latest Hulu show together! Your fur baby is welcome to sleep with me, on the floor, or in any bed or crate you bring. My two rescue cats absolutely LOVE other animals, so there is no worry there. They are so curious and eventually become besties! Since I am work from home full time now, so I am extremely flexible and they will have constant attention. I do live in an apartment, BUT, I am right next to the walking trail in River Prairie (the loop). I would be more than happy to go on as many walks as needed, and enjoy some sunshine with your fur baby! So do not worry, they can be outside as much or little as you’d like. I am open to care of all animals, all sizes, and all ages. If wanted, I visit my family farm quite often where we have extensive yard and land to run on. It is 100% an option for me to take your pet there if you want them to have some extra smells, especially if they stay long term with me. I’m extremely flexible and want you to not have to worry! While I traveled full time for work in the past, constant updates on my animals back home was crucial to me. I will provide as much or little communication you’d like. I’m here to meet you and your pet where you’d like and keep being away from them stress free. I promise they are in such caring hands! I work from home most days and go on daily walks myself! I would love to have a companion along with me to help make my place less lonely! During the weekends I can give even extra attention! I have access to the loop walk near River Prairie where i can take your pet for a potty break or for a walk! Depending how far they like to go - I can do the full three miles with them, or cut it shorter! I will be here with them to provide food, water, and care. Your pet will be my number 1 priority while I am with them!
About: I grew up with many family pets and helped care for them. I have worked professionally at day care and boarding/training facilities. In 2011 I acquired a Veterinary Assisting Diploma from Horizon School of Veterinary Assisting. My schedule is very flexible at the moment, most days I am available. We can talk and figure out what would work best for you and your companion animal. I will respect your animals current routine already in place and follow through with daily care needs as if you would for them in your home.
“It was our first time using the Rover App and we were really happy with Nadia. It was a last minute drop in and Nadia was quick to reply. We enjoyed the pictures and thought it was neat we could see the walks, poop/pee stops, and eat/drink. Our pup seemed to have a good time and was taken care of and that’s what we cared about. Thank you Nadia😊”
About: Hi Hi! I'm a former vet tech with 20 plus years of experience training and caring for pets! Day outings, overnights or drop-ins are all in my skill set! I'm an active and aware professional photographer and personal trainer and I enjoy getting dogs out on the trails, socializing, training- you name it! I mainly live in Jackson Hole, WYoming but I own my own home here in Winona. I am here some parts of the year and I would love to open up my schedule to dog care! I am very flexible during the day. I'm a photographer and most of my shoots are in the afternoons or early evening. I can do outings in the morning and afternoon to satisfy all of the physical demands of the doggos! I hit the trails almost every day so I can take them with me for a run/walk :) I also have access to 40 acres of wooded hills that I can take the pups too! The safety of your pet is #1! I am a former vet tech and have a great knowledge of dog care and health. I can administer medications- no problem! If am coming to let your pet out of your house, I can walk in the neighborhood or have a play session in the yard. If your pet is at my home, I have a big, fully fenced yard and I live right across from East Lake Winona, the dog friendly lake :) I am very aware of every situation I take your dog into and can address needs or concerns ASAP. I treat every dog I watch as one of my own :)
About: Growing up with a variety of animals really gave me the compassion and love I have for animals now. Also, it gave me the skill I need to be able to take care of and provide for the different species of animals there are out there. Mostly, it was dogs and cats but I do have experience in caring for hamsters and bunnies. I love to go walking/hiking just to be outside and getting fresh air so i have no problem going on walks. I’m completely comfortable with our furry friends being on my furniture, I know not everybody is but mi casa es su casa. I am a veterinarian technician with my A.A.S. degree and I plan to open up my own business one day whether it be a dog boarding place of my own or my very own shelter/rescue. Either way, this is my 5-10 year goal and his will help me achieve that. I work full time throughout the week. My evenings are available & so are most of my weekends. This month of August will be busy for me on the weekends though. I make sure they are comfortable & I treat them as if they are my own. I make sure they are happy while their person is gone.

About: Hi there! My name is Michelle and Ive been a pet owner since I was a child. My family always had dogs, cats, pocket pets, and the occasional tarantula. Im the niece of a large animal veterinarian whose clinic I volunteered at after school and summers. Currently my husband and I are owned by a Labrador Retriever and an English Setter. We are active with a national English Setter rescue, which is where our beautiful boy came from, and run volunteer transports of dogs on their way to foster or forever homes. *** Due to personal reasons, for House Sitting bookings I sleep at my own home. I will arrange my arrival and departure times at your home, to whatever your preferences are. I usually arrive around 6am and leave between 9 and 10pm, but thats variable based on your pet's routine.*** Im semi-retired! My routine is whatever it needs to be from day to day. Im a firm believer in being flexible to meet the situation's needs. Each pet is different. Some are couch potatoes, some want to hike the Alps, but all need mental stimulation and tons of hugs. Playtime, walks, treats and any other interactions you, as the expert on your pet, request of me, are part of the services I offer.
About: Hi there! I’m Destiny & have owned an array of furry friends over the years. I have never NOT had a pup and have owned many different breeds. Currently I own cattle dogs- an Aussie named Marley and Heeler/Collie mix named Sadie. They are 4, I trained them myself & they are extremely well behaved and socialized. I offer boarding, day care, dog walking, and can bathe your pup before returning them home to you. I can also pick up and drop off when needed. I can also house sit and pup sit if that is your need/comfortability as well. I am up for & encourage meet & greets before bookings if you would like to meet myself, the pups and/or see the house and our setup before hand! I work during the normal school year as a nursing instructor. I am off during the summer and am home FULL TIME to dedicate ALL of my time & attention to the fur babies! I promise your baby will be tuckered out, loved on and well fed (to your instructions of course!) Boarding at my home: safety is my top priority with animal to animal interaction and human to animal interaction. If pups need more alone time/privacy, they can be housed separately from my dogs at all times as we have multiple access points from our home to our fenced in yard and gate sectioning in our house. I do walks daily with them and am outside with them as well for the majority of the day. Our fenced in yard has a dog pool and I have BUCKETS of toys for them to play with! If your pup leans toward the spicier side & is more protective when it comes to their toys, food, or water please let me know and separation accommodations can be made, no problem. All breeds are different and each pup is different. I can also give medications topically, orally, injections etc. I can provide hourly updates through text, video call, phone calls, whatever you would like! At minimum I send a daily update. In your home: as a nurse, safety is always my top priority. I am also extremely clean and organized. I can maintain your daily routine with your pup so they don’t miss much while you are away. Again, meet and greets I encourage so you and especially your pup are comfortable meeting me and being in your home. I’ll be their make-shift auntie while you are away! Whatever update/care you want them to have, you got it- even FaceTime dates so you don’t have to miss them much.
“Linsie is extremely professional and detail-oriented. Her text responses are also super quick and she was able to agree to walk my dog with short notice. I had no problem trusting her with my fur babes. Thank you! It was a wonderful experience.”

About: I love dogs and have two of my own - a little man named Sid and big golden named Ruby. Everyone in my family has a dog as well so I am very used to being around pets. I am an active person and would love to walk, run with, or care for your dog! I work 2 days a week and I am flexible on weekends, so just let me know what you're thinking! We have two kids at home, 3 and under, so must be okay with sweet kiddos. I live in home with a big fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs. I have a small dog and large dog who get along very well with other dogs. They get super playful around other dogs, so your dog would surely have a fun time and get all his/her energy out! I am working part-time and home with my babies the other days, allowing a lot of flexibility with caring for your pet. We have some occasional things planned for weekends but are otherwise pretty open! I have a fenced in, nice yard for dogs to play and run in. We live in a great walking neighborhood. We have two dogs to keep your fur baby company as well as two young children. Animals must be kid-friendly for our home!
“Rebecca was fabulous with our pup. She sent updates and was very communicative. When we picked up our dog, she was happy to see us, but obviously well cared for and not anxious at all. Grateful for the help and loving care!”
