“Our situation was dire when we requested help and Ann and Arman responded immediately and with much warmth. I would recommend them wholeheartedly..I feel like they went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you for the great care you provided for our boy! Carol and Elaine”
“Yolanda was a great sitter to my dog Bluto. She is very responsive and sends updates throughout the stay. My dog loved her and I would recommend her to anyone that needs an extended stay.”
“Monique took excellent care of Juno. I was impressed with her updates and pictures. Juno can be a bit shy but she settled in great and made lots of dog friends during her stay. Monique was very responsive and wonderful to work with.”
“Kim is the BEST dog sitter....period. My dog, Georgia, gets to take lots of walks, play in the fenced yard, and spend quality time on the couch with Kim's dog, but the biggest thing for me is that I TRUST that she is safe and cared for so that I can go away and enjoy myself without worrying about her. THANK YOU, KIM!”
“Working with Julia and Colin was our first Rover experience and we could not be happier with how it went! Julia is extremely communicative and made the process easy. Our dog took to them very quickly and we could tell she was made comfortable in their home. We look forward to booking with them again!”
“Jacquelin and her husband have been a wonderful find and we could not be more grateful for her and her husband’s incredible care for our guy, Teddy. We were gone for 10 days for our spring break and were a little nervous being gone that long. Teddy comes from a one dog household and normally stays at home with a family member or friend; however this trip was too long for an arrangement like that and could not have been more pleased with the care, concern, consistent communication and love given to our sweet guy! We would not hesitate to use them again. Thanks so much 💛”
“Dani (and Aiden) were such a blessing in helping me car for my 3mo old pup while I was away for 2 nights! I am very grateful, thankful, and satisfied with how well everything went! They remained in good contact/communication!! Cash tip provided :-)”
“Wow. We were so fortunate to find Katie and her family for our Remy. They have two dogs of their own who are well behaved and welcoming. We received photos and reports almost every day of our two week vacation, showing us how much fun Remy was having and all the attention she was getting from Katie’s two daughters . We strongly recommend Katie and will have Remy stay there again”
“Sherry was wonderful with Nukka! She provided updates regularly, gave Nukka lots of love and walks. When a slight health issue arose, Sherry immediately notified me so I was aware of what she was seeing. I was able to get Nukka into the vet the following day for treatment! Thanks for taking such good care of our girl!!”
About: I helped raise my own two family dogs and ensured that they were always walked, bathed, fed, and happy. It's also a habit of mine to go take the extra step like wiping my dogs and make sure they are clean after they've been outside. I've also taken care of my neighbor's dogs alongside our own family dogs, so I have experience handling multiple pets at once. I work full-time, Monday through Friday, while working from home 2-3 days a week. I also go to workout classes in the evening. Normally, if working from home, I take the dogs out for a walk in the morning. On other days, I take them for a walk in the evening. I normally take pets out 3 times a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and night. I make sure the dogs have a dedicated spot for food and bed. I have both a park and a dog park, 5-10 minutes away from my apartment, which I can take the pets to for a walk or some dog play time. There are also multiple yard-like grass areas where the dogs are meant to do their business. If pets stay with me for longer than two weeks, I bathe them every other week.
“Gabriel did such a nice job keeping my 12 week old puppy overnight. His dog Mel and my puppy got along great. I will definitely book Gabriel again. Thank you Gabriel and Mel!”
“Leaving our dog with Auria (overnight) was our first experience with Rover.com and it was great! She messaged us with photos and words of assurance that our dog was having a great time with her dogs and doing well. She also replied quickly to our messages before and during our dog’s stay with her. Thanks Auria!”
“Jan was an awesome dog sitter! We met prior to Fergus’ stay so I could see her home and yard and meet in person. She was kind, asked questions about Fergus, and showed how she keeps pets safe who stay. She was an awesome caregiver and I will certainly use her again in the future. Thanks, Jan!”
“Andrew and his family treated my Oscar as part of their family. He was in constant communication with me while I was away in Italy for almost 3 weeks. Andrew is very kind and very easy/flexible. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy person to watch their furbabies! Thank you Andrew!”
“Angela was amazing!! She took great care of my Hodi. I have never left my boy before so l was very nervous. We did a meet and greet before hand which made me feel more comfortable. Angela sent pictures and text update daily. I HIGHLY recommend her to watch your furbaby. My boy had the best time. Thank you Angela and family🥰”
“Ester was great with Zeus. Zeus is very energetic, and had a wonderful time. I was sent videos of him during his stay. Will definitely book with Ester again.”
“Scott was very accommodating and communicative, we got several pictures and even a short video of our dog out playing in the fresh snow. Our dog has a fear of smooth floors and Scott was able to layout enough rugs and beds that Barley was comfortable. Will book again.”
“Our pup was perfectly exhausted in the best way! Loved hanging with Candace and her pups. She even went above and beyond and gave him the nail clipping we hadn’t had a chance to get scheduled due to a busy schedule. Thank you!!! ❤️”
“Ashley was an amazing dog sitter for our pup! She communicated throughout the stay, sent pictures, and made him feel at home! I highly recommend! Thank you for the experience!”

“Tressa did a wonderful job of looking after Marsha! Marsha is a shy and nervous cat, who doesn't like strangers. Tressa was able to coax her straight away. She is an obvious cat lover. We will definitely book with Tressa again :)”
“Danny was so great with our cat while we were away, and was helpful in taking care of a few house sitting things as well (mail, thermostat, etc). He was flexible and was able to do a few unplanned visits for us when our plans changed and also just to check more frequently on our cat as well. I had pretty specific instructions laid out as my cat is a little needy, and Danny was very receptive and understanding - didn’t seem phased by it at all! My cat has had issues when we are gone in the past and after working from home during COVID we were nervous but we had no issues and clearly the time Danny spent with him was just what our little guy needed. Kind and respectful, highly recommend.”
“Kim has great communication and attention to detail. She clearly cares for animals dearly so I felt very comfortable having her check in on my cats. She gave nice updates and pictures.”
“This was our first time using Rover. We would definitely have Becky take care of our cats again. She did a wonderful job of communicating with us and took great care of the cats while we were gone. Thanks Becky for a job well done!”
About: I have watched friends and neighbor's pets for years and decided to sign up with Rover. I love all animals. I have 1 dog and 1 cat, and they are family. I will walk, love and play with all pets staying with me and follow instructions given by their owners. I can watch puppies that are really like toddlers or older wiser members of your families. I am comfortable giving medications if needed. Most will sleep on my bed and yes, they are allowed on my furniture, but they are welcome to sleep or nap wherever they would like. I want you to go on vacation knowing they are happy and having a vacation of their own. I have a morning routine which includes a long walk, depending on temperature, playing in the yard with my dog and another walk usually late afternoon. Walks include walks around my neighborhood and also at parks. While your dog is in my care, I will not be going to any dog parks with them. I will have our dogs meet prior to accepting a job. They can play in my yard and once we are both comfortable with their meeting, we can schedule a time for drop off or pick up. While in my home they will be treated with love and respect. Walks and playtime throughout the day. They are allowed to sleep or hang out wherever they would like.
“I can’t recommend Lenys enough! She took such great care of my floof while I was away, making sure she was well-fed, comfortable, and had plenty of company. I loved receiving daily updates and adorable photos, which really gave me peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by suggesting and installing a new cat fountain to keep my cat hydrated and happy. On top of that, she made sure any packages delivered during my trip were safely brought in and secured. Truly thoughtful, reliable, and caring, she'll get the job done and more! Definitely booking her again!”
“Suzi was great. Jumped in at the last minute when another sitter canceled. Daily updates were personable and detailed. Bogey was a happy camper when I returned. Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the amount of patience, attention, and genuine care I give every pet I watch. I’m very detail-oriented and make it a priority to keep pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine while their owners are away. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities, from energetic kittens to shy senior cats who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, monitoring eating and litter box habits, and making sure pets feel safe and stress-free in their environment.
“Jan was great!! Super friendly- sent me pictures of Milo. I will definitely schedule again with her and recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter! Thanks:)”
About: I have helped friend and families taking care of their kitties on their homes. I know cats are not as comfortable leaving their house and I am perfectly fine commuting to your place and hanging out with them for a while after cleaning the or litter box, feeding them and playing with them.
About: I have taken care of cats of every age nearly my entire life. I currently have 3 long-haired cats with all very different personalities!

About: Hello! I come from a family of dog lovers currently with 20 doggies in just my imitated family plus close aunts/uncles and cousins. We have quite the hectic family holidays. I've had lots of dog sitting experience between all those pups as well as being on Rover for 9 years now. My favorite pup is my border collie/aussie mix, Piper. She’s a rescue, almost 8 years old and all energy all the time. She’s keeps me active and taught me how to keep dogs physically and mentally exercised. I’m super easy going, just let me know how I can help you and your furry friends! I work mostly from home but still make time to get some extra dog time in my day. I can do morning, some lunch, and evening check-ins/walks on weekends and Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Dogs will always be kept on leash unless in a secure, fenced in area with me. Every animals needs are different, I am happy to hear every details about your pet to know how to best care for them.
“We had a little hiccup on communication for times but it all worked out. Marie sent pictures and videos of Charlotte and she’s very happy and well taken care of. House was clean and well kept. Would be glad to have Marie come again”
About: I adore cats and appreciate forming respectful and gentle relationships with them! I know that cats appreciate ease and sensitivity and I always ensure to be watching a cat’s behavior to confirm they’re comfortable. I lived with a cat for 12 months who I cared for almost daily and frequently slept in my room. I take care of my grandma’s and friends cats often!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Fox Point
“Thank you so much to Kim! Kim was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog Mushi today. She's very friendly and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our lab mix rescue with her while we enjoyed the Milwaukee Zoo. She walked Mushi and also gave us updates as well as pictures. I highly recommend her to watch your dog.”
“Yolanda and her family have been so great to work with so far! Yolanda is very responsive, flexible, & respectful of your pet’s needs/requests/concerns. I will be utilizing her services again 🙂”
“My 4 month old puppy had a fantastic morning with Auria and her 2 dogs. Elliot was able not only to socializie with adult dogs, but also a soon to be 4 year old grand-daughter. Sounds like my puppy did very well -- now I can add that to his Rover profile!! Auria's dogs did not bark at Elliot when we arrived and were very relaxed, yet full of energy, and friendly to our puppy. I hope that when the need arises we can bring Elliot over again. I wouldn't hesitate to make it a regular dog day care, since it was such a positive experience (for everyone!). Thank you Auria for being available when I was looking for daycare the night before.”
About: I've had dogs ever since I can remember. I was brought up to love, respect and care for animals and that's why I got into vetmed back in my home country. I had to stop my studies to come here but I haven't stopped wanting to help.

I have pet sitted cats and dogs but I'm open to help with small species and exotic pets. Rest assured I'll do everything exactly like instructed by you, always with lots of love and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm currently staying at home so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups, take them on walks and snuggle with them. I have two small dogs that can keep your puppy company and we also have a very walkable neighborhood with some green areas we could explore together.

“Jan provides excellent care of Hercules. I get photo updates throughout his stay and messages as necessary. Herc is always exhausted and ready for a nap after a full day of play.”
About: Dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life, and I know how much joy and comfort they bring. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets, whether that means daily walks, playful activities, or snuggles on the couch. I’m flexible and attentive, making sure your furry friends feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m 22 years old and recently graduated from UWM with a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. I currently work part-time at a coffee shop and have a flexible schedule, making it easy for me to accommodate pet care needs When I’m caring for your fur baby, I’ll send as many pictures as you’d like, there’s no such thing as too many! I know I’d want updates on my own pets, so I’m happy to keep you connected while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully to make sure your pets are well cared for!
“Dane is fantastic; couldn’t recommend him more. Our pup loves getting to hang out with him and his goldens. We’re pretty sure our dog would prefer to live with Dane and his dogs if he could! We know that our dog has a great time because whenever we turn down the street that Dane lives on, our dog loses it with excitement regardless if we’re dropping him off or on our way somewhere else. Great backyard, the sweetest goldens and super nice humans. Definitely a winning trio.”
About: Hey there! I’m a new Rover sitter who truly enjoys being around dogs. I’m dependable, easygoing, and always focused on keeping dogs safe and comfortable. I’m happy to stick to your dog’s usual routine and I’ll keep you posted with updates and pictures. Your pup will get lots of attention, care, and love while you’re away! Currently, I am working in office on Tuesdays and Thursdays until about 230/3pm and work at home on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Weekends are very open and only tend to leave for short periods of time to run errands I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for them to run around and enjoy the outdoors, as well as one Corgi at home. I do live in a two story house with the primary bedroom upstairs. Depending on the preference, dogs are usually allowed to roam free whether I am home or not but I do have gates to keep them from going upstairs if necessary.
“Perseus and Dereck were great hosts to Spider. They took him in last minute. They provided photos during his short stay. I will definitely have them watch our dogs again. They deserve 10 stars!!”
About: Hi there! We are lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience and two sweet pit bulls of my own. Our home is shared with my playful and loving 3-year-old boy and my silly, affectionate 1-year-old girl, who both love making new friends. We've spent many years in responsible dog breeding, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, socialization, and individual needs. Whether your pup is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, We are confident and comfortable caring for all personalities, ages, and breeds. With me, your pets will be treated like part of the family — plenty of love, attention, structure, and fun. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive environment where every dog feels at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! --- If you want, I can also tailor it to a specific service (boarding, drop-ins, walks, etc.) or adjust the tone to be more professional, playful, or concise. I offer flexible scheduling for pet boarding thanks to my role with a property management company, which allows me to be home often and adjust my availability as needed. This flexibility helps me give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout their stay. For everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly require all pets to have their own crate during their stay. Crates provide a secure, familiar space for your dog to rest and relax, especially during downtime or when we briefly step out. Their safety and well-being are always our top priority. Also provide your pet with their favorite food/treats for their stay. We are also able to provide that for an additional fee.
“Aidan was amazing with our last second booking and went so far above and beyond! Will definitely send our dog here again next time we’re in the area!”
“I was anxious to find a new daycare for my pup Dexter when I moved to the area. I’m so thankful that we found Mrs Monique, who welcomed Dexter into her home and eased all of my worries. I received updates which reassured me that Dexter was being well taken care of while I was away at work. By the second day, Dexter was so excited to be back at Mrs Monique’s house he walked right inside without a second glance. Could not recommend Monique’s doggy daycare enough.”
About: Hi! I'm Andrew, and I absolutely love spending time with dogs! I've cared for my family's dogs for years and currently work for a privately owned dog walking company in Shorewood, where I've gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm passionate about making sure every furry friend feels happy, safe, and loved while they're in my care. Whether it's a fun walk, plenty of playtime, enrichment, or lots of belly rubs, I always treat every pet like they're part of my own family. I also enjoy working on basic training and reinforcing good manners through positive reinforcement, making walks both fun and rewarding. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care and the best experience possible for both you and your pup. I can't wait to meet your four-legged family member and become their new favorite walking buddy! I am currently available to book most days of the week as dog care is my passion. Please feel free to reach out to set up a meet and greet. I am currently available to take care of pets in client’s home. I am flexible with needs, dates, and times. Let me know how I can help 🙂
“Mickey loved his afternoon with Jessica! She took him for walks and made him feel at home. He was relaxed and happy when I picked him up. Jessica is such a kind soul, we feel extemely fortunate to have found her!”
“Miranda took care of my dog like nobody would. She was flexible and patient, and I will absolutely take my dear Galleta with her again. Miranda is super reliable and clearly loves animals. Galleta had lots of fun with her dog, Bandit. Thanks a lot for an amazing daycare experience for my dog!”
About: I’m a true animal lover. If it has paws, scales, fins, or whiskers, I’m already invested. I’ve cared for and fostered all kinds of pets over the years—dogs, cats, aquatic babies, reptiles, and the tiniest furry friends like bunnies and hamsters—so I’m comfortable across the board. To me, pets aren’t “just pets”…they’re family. My approach is calm, patient, and gentle. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and respect their boundaries so they always feel safe, understood, and comfortable. At home, I’ve got my own little zoo—2 sweet cats, a bearded dragon, 2 geckos, 4 snakes, and an adorable mouse—so trust me, I’m no stranger to unique personalities and specialized care. I would love to care for your pet when you need a break, go on vacation or when you make other plans. You can be assured that your pet is in good hands. To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. 📍 Located in Milwaukee – Capitol Heights area 🌻 I work from home so I’ll always have time to play, feed and love on your pet babies. I’m always flexible with their needs (bathroom breaks, medication, shyness) to make sure they are always comfortable. If my schedule or availability changes, I always send out updates to my calendar right away. ❤️ To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space for pets to roam, play and toilet if needed. Pets are always welcome to bring their own items. My 2 lovely cats are usually shy and more of the watching type, so they won’t bother your pets but will surely admire them from their cat trees. All activities and toileting are supervised. There is no smoking of any kind in my home or pet areas. There are some pictures of our living space in the photo collection on my Rover profile.
“Michael and his wife were very kind to champ. They are true dog lovers. Very responsive to our requests. We returned later than we thought we due to traffic and Michael was were very understanding and gracious about it. Thank you!”
About: I have been the go-to pet sitter for my large family & friends for years and just decided to see if anyone else would need the service. I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. I like hanging out with the pets like little buddies, getting some days of cuddles and then sending them home 😅. It’s the perfect way to get some fur baby time until I’m ready for my next dog or cat in the future. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting cuz it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.

About: I recently adopted my own dog as a puppy during the pandemic and have been a proud dog mom ever since! Besides my own dog I have experience with walking extended families dogs and caring for my friends dog while they were out of town. I'm looking to use the skills and experience I have gained to care for other pets in my neighborhood! I'm currently a new grad school student at UWM (go panthers) so my schedule has a bit of flexibility to it. I have classes in the evenings at the moment and would prefer to do morning walks during the week or anytime during the weekend! While at a clients home I am very attentive to their pet and its needs and make sure to give it the same love and care as I would my own!

“Jan has been great, and Gizmo loves her! She will take him for walks, be sure he goes potty, and play with him in the yard for a bit. Jan is also flexible should a scheduling conflict arise. She truly loves dogs and looks forward to seeing Gizmo a few times a week!”
About: For 5 years, I’ve cared for a foster cat I adopted, looked after 3 senior cats—including giving medication—and am experienced with home visits to feed and play. I’m looking to spend my days off walking and playing with pets! With an open schedule, I love taking frequent walks around town and would be thrilled to have a furry companion join me for some fun and exercise. I’m available most days of the week and ready to help your pet get moving! While I don’t offer pet sitting in my own home, I’m dedicated to respecting your pet’s routine and following your guidelines to provide the best care possible in your home.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and have raised my own cats and dogs, including a dog with health issues. I also am a volunteer dog walker and foster for MADACC. I'm an ultra runner, so what better way to get in some miles than to run with your dog?! I work from home part-time so I have flexibility during the week. On the weekends, I just have to work around my kids' sports schedules. I have years of experience running, walking and hiking with my own dogs. I will keep your dog safely leashed/harnessed while we are getting our steps in, making sure they are comfortable and properly hydrated.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve frequently pet sat for neighbors, family friends, and people through word of mouth, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, medications, overnight care, litter boxes, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’m very patient, attentive, and reliable, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I recently joined this app to connect with more pet owners and continue doing something I’ve always enjoyed! I usually work out early in the morning around 7:30, so the rest of my day is very open and flexible for pet care. I’m able to fit walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, playtime, very easily into my routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like a chore to me. I’m very reliable with communication and making sure pets stay on their normal routines while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs with very different personalities and needs. I currently help take care of my own dog at home, who stays in a fenced-in yard, and I also frequently help with my best friend’s and girlfriend’s dogs as well. Since they’re all different breeds and temperaments, I’m used to adjusting care depending on the dog, whether that means high-energy play, extra patience, sticking to strict routines, or making them feel comfortable in new environments. I always prioritize safety, attention, and making pets feel relaxed and cared for.

About: As someone who grew up on a small farm, I have been around a variety of animals since birth. I have experience caring for a variety of species and am comfortable handling any animal. I have volunteered with local animal shelters for over a decade, so I also have extensive experience caring for pets with behavioral issues and medical needs. I am a part-time sitter who is providing pet care services in addition to my full-time work. However, as a professor at a local university, I have a very flexible daily schedule and can easily provide pet care during typical business hours. Additionally, I do not work in the summer, which increases my availability from mid-May to September. I am very intentional about the number of clients I take at a time to ensure that I can provide comprehensive care to booked clients. I believe open communication is most important to be able to provide safe and reliable care for your pets. During our meet and greet, I will ask many questions to ensure that I have a full picture of what caring for your pet requires and how to meet your expectations. As someone who uses a Rover sitter to care for my pets when I am away, I personally understand the trust that is needed to leave your pets in someone else's care. I strive to build trust with clients by showing up when I say I do and following all instructions provided to me. And, it is not just about building trust with you but also your pet! If your pet has any behavioral issues or quirks, it's important for me to know this so that I can ensure safety for your pet and myself. This will help me adjust my interactions with them so I can build trust with your pet and respect their boundaries. The more information I have, the better!
About: I have watched friends and neighbor's pets for years and decided to sign up with Rover. I love all animals. I have 1 dog and 1 cat, and they are family. I will walk, love and play with all pets staying with me and follow instructions given by their owners. I can watch puppies that are really like toddlers or older wiser members of your families. I am comfortable giving medications if needed. Most will sleep on my bed and yes, they are allowed on my furniture, but they are welcome to sleep or nap wherever they would like. I want you to go on vacation knowing they are happy and having a vacation of their own. I have a morning routine which includes a long walk, depending on temperature, playing in the yard with my dog and another walk usually late afternoon. Walks include walks around my neighborhood and also at parks. While your dog is in my care, I will not be going to any dog parks with them. I will have our dogs meet prior to accepting a job. They can play in my yard and once we are both comfortable with their meeting, we can schedule a time for drop off or pick up. While in my home they will be treated with love and respect. Walks and playtime throughout the day. They are allowed to sleep or hang out wherever they would like.
About: Hello! I come from a family of dog lovers currently with 20 doggies in just my imitated family plus close aunts/uncles and cousins. We have quite the hectic family holidays. I've had lots of dog sitting experience between all those pups as well as being on Rover for 9 years now. My favorite pup is my border collie/aussie mix, Piper. She’s a rescue, almost 8 years old and all energy all the time. She’s keeps me active and taught me how to keep dogs physically and mentally exercised. I’m super easy going, just let me know how I can help you and your furry friends! I work mostly from home but still make time to get some extra dog time in my day. I can do morning, some lunch, and evening check-ins/walks on weekends and Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Dogs will always be kept on leash unless in a secure, fenced in area with me. Every animals needs are different, I am happy to hear every details about your pet to know how to best care for them.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years for family and friends - young dogs, senior dogs, and cats all included! My senior dog recently passed away and I am looking forward to spending time with animals again. I recently graduated college and moved back home so I am currently working part time as a nanny as I figure out what I want to do with my life. I have lots of extra time and love to go on walks! I will care for pets in your home as I am living at home with my parents right now. I want to be respectful of whatever you/your animal needs. Depending on the day I am needed I won’t be able to stay with the animal all day but usually the longest I ever need to step out to nanny is 4-5 hours.
About: As a lifelong dog owner and lover, I'm well attuned to reading and handling the signals dogs give off regarding their comfort, fear and territorial/aggressive behaviors. I'm physically strong and I trust dogs, but I know that triggers can come up anytime and I'm always equipped to take control and safely defuse anxiety inducing situations with grace and care. I pride myself on my ability to form loving and trusting relationships with dogs of all personality types. I've had endless experience walking dogs, had a beloved family dog (Cinco!) for 12 years, lived with and cared for a roommates dog for 7 months, and as a personal assistant, cared for a dog (Gracie!) daily/weekly for 12 months. I take being in charge of another person's beloved animal with the utmost seriousness and look forward to getting to know your amazing dog! I’m home in Milwaukee until August 31st and have enormously flexible availability up until then! Would love to establish and weekly schedule with you and your pet, or come on a need basis. Apart from just bathroom breaks, meals, and walks, I also find it personally important to keep your pet stimulated and calm! Love to play games, have a nice scratch sesh, or go for long walks. I also know where your pet is in my accommodation or yours.

“Kim is the BEST dog sitter....period. My dog, Georgia, gets to take lots of walks, play in the fenced yard, and spend quality time on the couch with Kim's dog, but the biggest thing for me is that I TRUST that she is safe and cared for so that I can go away and enjoy myself without worrying about her. THANK YOU, KIM!”

“Wow. We were so fortunate to find Katie and her family for our Remy. They have two dogs of their own who are well behaved and welcoming. We received photos and reports almost every day of our two week vacation, showing us how much fun Remy was having and all the attention she was getting from Katie’s two daughters . We strongly recommend Katie and will have Remy stay there again”
“Sherry was wonderful with Nukka! She provided updates regularly, gave Nukka lots of love and walks. When a slight health issue arose, Sherry immediately notified me so I was aware of what she was seeing. I was able to get Nukka into the vet the following day for treatment! Thanks for taking such good care of our girl!!”
About: I helped raise my own two family dogs and ensured that they were always walked, bathed, fed, and happy. It's also a habit of mine to go take the extra step like wiping my dogs and make sure they are clean after they've been outside. I've also taken care of my neighbor's dogs alongside our own family dogs, so I have experience handling multiple pets at once. I work full-time, Monday through Friday, while working from home 2-3 days a week. I also go to workout classes in the evening. Normally, if working from home, I take the dogs out for a walk in the morning. On other days, I take them for a walk in the evening. I normally take pets out 3 times a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and night. I make sure the dogs have a dedicated spot for food and bed. I have both a park and a dog park, 5-10 minutes away from my apartment, which I can take the pets to for a walk or some dog play time. There are also multiple yard-like grass areas where the dogs are meant to do their business. If pets stay with me for longer than two weeks, I bathe them every other week.
“Leaving our dog with Auria (overnight) was our first experience with Rover.com and it was great! She messaged us with photos and words of assurance that our dog was having a great time with her dogs and doing well. She also replied quickly to our messages before and during our dog’s stay with her. Thanks Auria!”
“Jan was an awesome dog sitter! We met prior to Fergus’ stay so I could see her home and yard and meet in person. She was kind, asked questions about Fergus, and showed how she keeps pets safe who stay. She was an awesome caregiver and I will certainly use her again in the future. Thanks, Jan!”
“Andrew and his family treated my Oscar as part of their family. He was in constant communication with me while I was away in Italy for almost 3 weeks. Andrew is very kind and very easy/flexible. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy person to watch their furbabies! Thank you Andrew!”
“Ester was great with Zeus. Zeus is very energetic, and had a wonderful time. I was sent videos of him during his stay. Will definitely book with Ester again.”
“Scott was very accommodating and communicative, we got several pictures and even a short video of our dog out playing in the fresh snow. Our dog has a fear of smooth floors and Scott was able to layout enough rugs and beds that Barley was comfortable. Will book again.”
“Our pup was perfectly exhausted in the best way! Loved hanging with Candace and her pups. She even went above and beyond and gave him the nail clipping we hadn’t had a chance to get scheduled due to a busy schedule. Thank you!!! ❤️”
“Angie was amazing! My dog had so much fun that I’m pretty sure he didn’t want to come home! She sent great updates and pictures and treated Cosmo like her own. I definitely will be using her again!!”

“Jennifer was wonderful with watching our Lou for over a week. Very easy to communicate with and we really appreciated receiving updates and photos. We would definitely book with her again!”
