“Michelle is so wonderful to our little Rascal! She provides such good care and clearly enjoys having him In her home! So grateful and comforting to know he is in such good hands and getting quality care when we are away!”
“Alexander cared for my dog exceptionally well. I received photos and videos during the stay and it looked like my dog was having lots of fun. I highly recommend Alexander and will rebook with him for future stays!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Heidi! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we received regular updates and photos that really put us at ease. Our dogs were clearly well cared for, happy, and comfortable while we were away. You can tell they truly love animals and take their responsibility seriously. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care!”
“My pups recently had the pleasure of staying with Jenna, and we couldn't be more impressed! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves and understands dogs. Throughout the entire sitting period, Jenna provided regular updates and adorable photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond, ensuring they were well-loved and exercised, entertained and happy. I highly recommend Jenna to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. My pups and I are both looking forward to our next booking!”
“Jessie was amazing with our two pups during a weekend getaway. She made her home very comfortable for the visiting furbabies by making comfy beds around the house for them to rest. Our youngest pup has anxiety, but she played catch with them, making the transition very easy. She had many toys, let them sleep in the bed with her, and was able to give oral meds to our older pup. During our trip, she gave daily updates. Jessie really helped make our trip enjoyable because we did not have to worry about our pups at all.”
“Karen is truly incredible. She takes care of your four legged kid like it is her own and does not miss a beat. She gave daily updates, exposed our pup to things he has never been exposed to, and is genuinely a great human being. We are incredibly grateful for the time that we could spend away completely worry free with our dog in Karen’s care.”
“Abby and her family are fantastic! They watched my dog Seger for the week. I got updates and pictures throughout the week, which was great and put me at ease. I was able to enjoy my vacation while Seger was enjoying extra snuggles and loves from the family. I would use Abby again and I know Seger can’t wait to visit!”
“Katie was great. She watched our doggo Morgan for 5 days while my husband and I were out of town. Morgan had a fun pack of dogs to run and play with on a large property off the beaten path. She sent us a few photos. Her youngest daughter and Morgan are now besties. 🥰 Would board Morgan here again in the future.”
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life growing up. I currently have one dog, Ruby, who is 2 years old and a cat, Henry, who is 6 months old. I also have two children (ages 5 and 9) who love pets and helping out. My goal is to provide not just reliable care, but peace of mind—so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I make it a priority to follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special needs or medications. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort so I can respond quickly to anything they may need. I also believe communication is key. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel reassured that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Cassandra was great! We used her for an overnight stay on our wedding night! She was flexible with different people doing drop off and pick up and sent me great photos of my pup Franklin!”
“Great sitter! Highly recommend Nicole and Josh. Frank and Leo were very happy their entire stay and I could tell they loved it there. I got so many cute photos and the communication was wonderful and always quick. The boys are looking forward to their next stay!”
“So glad she was able to take our dog for the day on short notice. Milo had a great time playing with Alisha's dog and enjoyed the affection from her and her family. We definitely be contacting her again.”
About: I’ve had pets all my life and have fostered many puppies and dogs over the years. I have experience in puppy training, high anxiety dogs, shy dogs, active dogs and seniors. I work from home and am home 24/7. We have lots of playtime outside in the backyard especially when the weather is nice. I have lots of toys, a doggy pool and a yard to play in! I have a 5ft fully fenced in yard that allows my dogs to get lots of playtime, including a doggy pool. I am home all day so your pet will not be left alone.

“Can't recommend Heidi highly enough. She took care of my two fur babies while I was on a business trip for work, and even went the extra mile of leaving the trash for pickup on trash day, and running me to the travel plaza for the shuttle pickup on the day I left. She stayed in constant communication with me and even checked on them late when we had a derecho come through the night after I left. I will definitely be requesting her to check in on my babies again the next time I have to travel for work. Unrelated but also notable - she takes professional-level pet photos that she includes in the daily check in cards. She missed her calling as a pet photographer!!”
“Alex was great! He handled our high energy dog very well. Millie was a happy girl when we got home! He followed our instructions and I felt very comfortable that Millie would be well taken care of on the drop in visit. Would definitely recommend Alex!”
“Courtney reliably came twice a day to take care of our fur baby and make sure she was well-fed, had water, and the litter box scooped. We'll definitely request Courtney for future pet sitting needs.”
“Charlotte took great care of our elderly cats. She provided daily updates and pictures so we knew they were doing well and were very comfortable with her. Nice to come home to happy cats! Thank you!!”
About: I have had a cat since I was 10, they quickly stole a spot in my heart. I grew up with dogs but since getting a cat gravitate in their direction. So much love for cats of any size, age, and breed. I am currently a senior at UWL and have an on campus job. I have plenty of time to dedicate to the fur babies.
About: Hi, my name is Olivia. I was looking for extra money so I figured why not do something I love? I adore all kind of animals, big or small. I have been taking care of animals for about two years now. I've watched my neighbors dogs and my friends dogs/cats. And I have always received good feedback. I am also very active so I will have no problem playing with and walking your pets! I feel like what sets me apart is that I am very passionate about animals and I don't believe in doing anything half way. Either do it above and beyond, or don't do it at all. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I just got back from two years of working abroad and haven’t started my new job yet so I have plenty of free time for the time being! :) When caring for your pets, I try to care for and love them as much as you do! Also, when it comes to house sitting, I try to keep the house clean and tidy so you can return home to a neat house.
About: I do walking, snuggles, feed them, potty breaks and lots of play time! I do have a pet myself, but she stays home. I trained her all by myself. I taught her not to bark, lick the face, sit shake, stay fetch, and to love people. I'm a easy going person and I'm a animal lover myself! I hope to hear from you. I can start as soon as possible. You can also reach me at 7I also animal sit for my family and friends all the time. If you have any questions please feel free to call or text me. Thank you, Jenny M.
About: Hi there! My name is Savannah, and I recently moved to the area! I grew up around dogs/cats of all kinds my whole life and have previous experience with dog sitting for friends while they were away on trips. I’ve also volunteered at my local animal shelter, where I spent time caring for and walking both dogs and cats. You don’t need to worry about traveling, as I have my own vehicle to travel. Because I work part time at a clinic, I’m available only afternoons and nights during the week. However, I'm available all day during the weekends. If you need a sitter, I would be unavailable to take them to my own house, but can stop in/stay at your place. Caring for an pet greatly depends on the pet themselves and the owner's desires. I love to play and be active with the animals if allowed. If a pet is older and doesn't like to be active for long, I enjoy just spending the quality time so they aren't lonely while their owner is away. I also always check in with the client about their pet's basic needs, such as how much they are fed and how often, how often they are let out, if there is any needs for any disabilities, etc.
About: My lifelong passion for animals began on our family’s organic dairy farm in Menomonie, Wisconsin, where I learned the dedication required to care for animals of all sizes. Over the years, we have opened our hearts and home to our friends' pets, gaining extensive hands-on experience with everything from energetic dogs to gentle bunnies. As a homeschool family, someone is almost always home to provide continuous love, attention, and structured care. We spend plenty of time outside so your pet will have lots of opportunities to exercise and spend time in the sun. Your pet will enjoy full access to our house and a large, securely fenced yard perfect for safe outdoor exploration. Located in a peaceful, dog-friendly neighborhood, we offer a warm, reliable, and attentive home-away-from-home where your pet will be treated like family.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Emerald
“Michelle was excellent! Our 8 month old Shih Tzu had two sweet pups to play with all day! What fun! Michelle sent me photos and I knew Willy was getting excellent care! We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you Michelle!”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! Karen was so kind and welcoming to our very energetic pup! She has great attention to detail and took the time to truly get to know our dog and his unique personality and needs. Getting updates and pictures of our dog having the time of his life with Karen and her family made us feel so at ease knowing that he was in great, loving hands. We will definitely be reaching out to Karen in the future and our pup can’t wait to go back! ☺️❤️”
“This was the first time we used Rover. We left Gunner for a daycare day to start. Carolyn and Kristopher were great with Gunner. Carolyn wrote down all the details of Gunner’s normal routine and his particular needs. He came home very tired which was a win. We will be using them again in February for a longer stay. So thankful we found such wonderful people to leave him with.”
“Cate and Tim and Ainsley were great to Murphy and their place was a perfect playground. Murphy came home happy and tired. It was our first Rover and she had no stress. Highly recommend them!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I have a cat and have had several different dogs. I even fostered dogs for a summer. I'm now divorced and have my kids half the time. My work is flexible and I can add in dog care as needed throughout the day. I homeschool my boys when I have them and work delivery jobs when I don't. My work is very flexible so I can make time for per care any time. I live in town with a small yard. It works best to come to your home as it's most familiar for the animal. My home is a good size but has close neighbors. You can find my personal pet sitting page called Jessica's Pet Sitting on Facebook.
“I booked a doggy daycare as a “meet and greet” before we did a 3 day/2 night stay. They have a very large, fenced in yard and I had a great communication leading up to and at pickup. We are looking forward to our worry-free weekend away.”
“She responded immediately to our last-minute request to take our dog for the day. She let us know what to expect and how she would feed Aggie. She was willing to keep her even longer than I requested, since we weren't sure when we would be back. She even offered to walk her out to the car under an umbrella during the storm! Aggie came back to us happy and tired out. I'm so glad we booked with Elizabeth W!”
“Orlando and Nicki were very responsive and accommodating. They were welcoming and hospitable. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with them and they took very good care of our pet.”
About: I’ve fostered dogs since I was in fourth grade, sometimes multiple at a time. Varying in size and age, sometimes cats as well as dogs. I am currently a junior at UWL and work an on campus job. I am going to school full time and my job does block off some of my time but I am willing to work my schedule around the fur babies. I live in the dorms so I will not be able to take the dogs into my home but I can easily take care of them in your home and easily crate if necessary. They will be provided with plenty of love and attention.
“Jessica and Jacob were very kind and accommodating! I appreciated Jessica's prompt response time and her knowledgeability about dogs! Taji is lookin' forward to his next stay with this lovely family! :)”
About: I've been pet sitting since I was in middle school, and more recently I've been pet sitting for family, friends, and Rover clients. I've had cats my entire life and currently I have a 5 year old dog. I am a stay at home mom, so I am able to watch your pets in my home and give them the loving attention they deserve while you are away. I send updates and pictures as often as you would like. I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. I have an unfenced yard and a dog of my own. I have loved cats all my life.
“Stella had her first doggie daycare experience with John and his family! We wanted her to not have to spend all day in a crate and get some good social time in with other people and dogs. They sent lots of pictures to let us know about the fun she was having! She had a fantastic time and was exhausted when she came home. She is already looking forward to the next time she goes back!”
About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats in many different ways. I have owned dogs my entire life, plus a few cats. I volunteer at the Humane Society in Kansas City while at school where I work directly with the shelter dogs. I have house sat for multiple family friends and am ready to take on new pups and cats! I am currently home from school for the summer so am looking to fill the time. I work part time as a server a few times a week. During the day I often just workout, read a book, or hang with my own dogs. I have fostered a dog before and can adjust well to your dogs needs. I’ve practiced crate training, furniture restrictions, and other small training tasks. My house has an open yard which my dogs are free to run around in when they are not on leash to go potty.
About: I have worked for roughly two years dog sitting for friends and family. Typically these have been in my own home - occasionally overnight. I have a fenced in back yard for my 3 dogs & 2 cats so I have experience with both :) I have complete availability currently, so my dog at home gets quite a lot of walks and park time. If possible, i also try to socialize him with people each day. Typically I take my dog to the dog park in the evening with a long walk in the morning. This works best for my dogs energy levels, but each dog is different. I am also trying to socialize my dog in public as he is a bit scared of humans so we try to hit some breweries here and there.

I have been a dog walker/dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 3+years. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I grew up with a household of furry friends!

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life, and that love just seems to keep growing the older I get. I've had a variety of resident pets over the years, including hamsters, birds, chinchillas, cats and dogs. I've been fostering through an animal rescue for 8 years and have cared for up to 20 animals at once, in my home. I started whelping a year and a half ago so I have extensive experience with dogs of all ages, newborn to senior. I am comfortable with all animals and look forward to meeting your beloved family member(s)! I currently work part time at an animal sanctuary for special needs cats and dogs. My schedule is flexible on most days and we can work something out on the days I am at work I have a farm with a large fenced in yard and 2 very friendly dogs that can keep yours company. I also have a chihuahua who absolutely loves people, but takes a little bit to warm up to a new furry face. I also have 2 super laid back cats who will observe from a distance. I have a dedicated puppy room that your dog can stay in; I can also crate them if needed or more comfortable for them or can let them hang with the family as much as they'd like to. We do let our animals on furniture but will adhere to any "rules" you have in place for your pet. We've had many animals come through our home on a temporary basis and do whatever we can to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: One of my favorite things about working with dogs is that every dog has a different personality. I take the time to learn what makes each one comfortable and happy, and I adjust my care to fit their needs. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, playful, or laid-back, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I enjoy staying active, so dog walks and visits are something I genuinely look forward to. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicate with owners, and ensure pets receive the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions and routine to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I take the time to build trust with each pet, pay attention to their individual needs, and provide plenty of care, attention, and updates while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember—everything from energetic Labs to laid-back Basset Hounds, plus a rescue puppy that I personally helped train and grow into a well-behaved companion. That hands-on experience has taught me how to understand different temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. From basic training and leash manners to patience with shy or stubborn pups, I’ve learned that every dog is unique and deserves personalized attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy building trust and creating a positive, fun experience for them every time we’re together. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long adventure walk, or just some extra love while you’re busy, I treat every walk like it matters—because it does. I tailor each visit to your dog’s personality, pace, and needs, making sure they feel safe, stimulated, and happy every step of the way. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in caring, responsible hands. From playful pups to senior sweethearts, I’m experienced, attentive, and ready to keep tails wagging. Full time job but available in the evenings and weekends to take care of your furry friends, whether that’s a potty break or a walk on my way home from work, or hanging out all weekend! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication, or any specific habits your pet is used to. During visits, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, not just the basics. I keep their environment clean, refresh water bowls, and make sure they’re safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also mindful of your home, treating it with respect and keeping everything just as I found it.
About: My partner and I tag team animal sitting which makes a great pair for the price of one! We both have had animals since we were born and have grown up taking care of dogs and cats alike. My partner and I are college students who work together on Rover so that our schedules allow someone to be with your animals consistently! We also own 2 dogs who we adore :) We will care for your pets in their home by providing personalized attention and activities, including visits to local dog parks for exercise and socialization.
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.
“Sharron does a great job and communicates well with us on schedule adjustments. Fiona my Goodendoodle waits at the door for her to pull up to the house and is excited to see her every walk.”
“I needed someone to give my pup exercise. Olivia was great. She took him on daily walks, at exactly the times we had arranged, and sent me photos, so I could see he was being well cared for. I would definitely recommend Olivia.”

About: I work from home so you can have peace of mind that someone has eyes on your beloved pets while you're away! I graduated from UWRF with my pre-vet in Animal Science and spent 2 years as a large animal technician at a facility in Coon Rapids, MN. I train feral Mustangs and have taught my cat tricks too! My sister has let me use her dogs for agility and other dog sports on occasion. I've been farm sitting privately by word of mouth for the past 3 years and am now expanding to Rover. I work from home so it is easy to accommodate all of your pets needs. I have limited hobbies as horses are my primary personality trait. If I'm not at the barn, I'm home reading or in bed watching a K-Drama. I care for all animals as if they were my own. I am a detail oriented person, and follow care instructions accurately. I am also a proficient communicator and calm in the event of an emergency. I am well equipped to care for your pet while you are away, and allow you the peace of mind that they are well taken care of.
About: I have lived with dogs since childhood. I have had several dogs of my own, currently I have two Border Collies, one is a tripod. I am currently not working so I am available 7 days a week.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I take the time to get to know your pet, and fulfill their needs. I currently have a 2 year old Siberian husky. I have trained my husky fully myself, and have the skills to train.

I have a safe environment for your dog in a cozy condo. I live down the street from a dog park, as well as lots of walking trails. If it is your home, I will learn your environment, and go by whatever your dog is used to.
About: Most of my pet care experience comes from pet sitting dogs for my neighbors, family, and friends. I also have personal experience due to living with 3 dogs of my own, and a cat. I have experience with senior dogs that have difficulty moving and are on a specific diet. I currently work part-time and as a student! Due to this, my schedule is incredibly flexible and open! Most weekday evenings, weekends, I am available! I know the importance of routine, safety, and trust when it comes to our pets. This is why I make sure to follow your guidelines to the T so that your pet is as comfortable as possible.

“Jessie was amazing with our two pups during a weekend getaway. She made her home very comfortable for the visiting furbabies by making comfy beds around the house for them to rest. Our youngest pup has anxiety, but she played catch with them, making the transition very easy. She had many toys, let them sleep in the bed with her, and was able to give oral meds to our older pup. During our trip, she gave daily updates. Jessie really helped make our trip enjoyable because we did not have to worry about our pups at all.”
