“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“I really appreciated how accommodating & patient Monique was with my BabyDog Fèndi! She sent me some nice pictures about an hour after drop off which made me feel better as I was wondering how she was interacting with the bigger dogs since she’s a small one. Also, throughout her stay she was sending me pics. My flight back came in late, but Monique stayed up to wait for my arrival and I felt that was going above & beyond! Will definitely be using her services again and I highly recommend 10/10✨”
“When you see all these reviews of Angela and think “there’s no way that can be true”. Trust me it is true. Angela was so amazing with my dog. This is our first time leaving her for this long and I could not have felt like she was in better hands. not only did I get enough picture updates, Angela was so kind and amazing to work with. her husband and her two kids were just all amazing people. Matter of fact, when I came to pick up my dog, I already asked her about future days so I would need a sitter for. If you’re wondering about a sitter who will keep your baby safe at home and who’s just a wonderful, genuine person, look no further than Angela.”

“It’s been tough finding an overnight sitter for our senior dog and Maria and Nayibe were a perfect fit! Our dog loved their fenced in backyard and enjoyed socializing with other small dogs as well. They sent daily updates along with photos and videos to ensure our dog was enjoying his stay. We’re happy we found someone we can rely on for our future trips! Highly recommend!”

I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy person to watch their furbabies! Thank you Andrew!”
“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.

About: I have two rescue dogs (Tasha & Diesel)!. I've been around dogs my whole life. I have dealt with all ages of dogs from puppy stages to senior dog care. I do work a full time job but I work from home 4 days a week on a routine basis (monday, wednesday - friday). Working from home gives me flexibility to take care of your pets whether it's a quick walk, playtime, or potty breaks! In my client's home to best fit the needs of your pet, all I ask is for important details on your pets triggers or anything that i need to know (and your wifi password if I work from home!) :)
About: I've been surrounded by cats of all shapes sizes and personalities my whole life! I have plenty of litter box and medication administration experience! Just let me know what needs to be done and I'm up for the job!
About: We've always had a family dog while I was growing up- a variety of breeds and sizes. The only time I was without a dog was the 4 yrs I was renting an apartment that wouldn't allow them. My family often pet sit for family on vacation and we recently had 2 Rottweilers in our home for 3 months while our friends relocated. We spent many years raising our five kids and now would love to pet sit for other busy pet loving families. We both have flexible work schedules which allow us to be available almost 24/7 for boarding, walks or drop-in pet care! We can fit in any care you need around our schedules. We live in a remote rural area of Germantown on 1.0 acres and have plenty of cozy living space inside. We can take your animals to our house or come to you! Whichever you'd prefer

“Monique was so considerate of my needs and my boy’s! She saved me so much hassle by taking Manny on such short notice and sent me updates throughout the day. She’s amazing!”
“Gianina watched my 7 month old puppy for 4 consecutive days. She was awesome to work with and each day my puppy came home happy, healthy, and tired. I truly appreciate her caring for him so well and I would absolutely book with her again in the future.”
“My favorite pet sitters! Maria & Nayibe are so kind and truly foster a comfortable environment for the animals. My dog always has a great time and I trust them wholeheartedly with his care.”
“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 🙂”
“We had a sudden dinner invitation come up and needed a baby sitter on short notice. Based on previous reviews, I reached out to Mary. She was quick to respond and also flexible with the drop off and pick up time. We were on time, but her attitude made us relaxed and we were not stressed out that we will be late or early by 10-15 mins. Anya had a wonderful time and based on the pictures that Mary sent us, Anya took a liking to her whole family. Seeing how happy Anya was, made it easier for us and we will definitely reach out to Mary for future baby sitting.”
“Small had an amazing few days with Madison, Joseph and Knox! Went on walks and adventures, and was so well cared for. Came home exhausted every evening from a full day of playing with his new friends. Thank you!”
“Kim is amazing! We always have her watch our dachshund Wendi whenever we go out of town or have an event to go to. She is so responsive and such a kind person! When she’s watching our dog, we know our dog is in great hands.Our dog always comes home happy and sleepy after hanging out with Kim and her dog! Thank you!!”
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.
“Rita and Dan are amazing and truly love dogs. They are kind, caring, attentive, and the dogs have a great time together. As a bonus for us, they are fun to talk to and great with communication and updates. They helped us out with our two dogs with short term notice and were understanding when we were unexpectedly delayed because of weather. Highly recommend!”
“Gilian was so patient with Oakley on his first sitter experience!! She kept me updated on how he was, concerns she had, and pictures. We got stuck in a family emergency and she came through to watch Oakley last minute, I highly recommend her!!”
“Auria is so great with dogs! Our 6 mo old French bulldog has a great time with her and her dog Dallas. She was great giving him special attention today as he is healing a fractured leg, she understood his restrictions and made us feel assured that he was safely able to have fun at her house. This was Tucker’s second stay by Auria and he hates to leave!”
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.
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!

“Paul helped me out a lot in a pinch! It was a last minute booking, I was from out of town, and my family made dinner reservations. Paul was flexible with the times and went out of his way to accommodate our situation.”
About: Pets are family, and we love providing a safe, fun, and loving home for them to stay! Our dog passed away on Christmas 2024. While we’re not ready for a new pup of our own yet, we love opening our home to others. We have two kind, animal-loving kids (ages 3 and 9) who are gentle, playful, and always excited to help care for our furry guests. To make sure every pet feels at home, we usually host just one dog at a time (unless they’re from the same family). Your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while you’re away — along with lots of love from the whole family. We can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾 I work full time as a social worker during the school year but off during the summer. I am able to provide care on weeknights and weekends and more intensive care in the summer! Our dog recently passed away and we are used to providing regular dog care. We have a large, un-fenced yard and great areas for walking!
“Nikki was great with our dog a few days ago. She was more than willing to help us out in a pinch as new clients. She is very thorough with her rover cards and responds quickly. We will definitely use her in the future if we need to!”
About: I am a crazy cat lady. I’ve been around cats my entire life and currently care for three of my own.

I’m comfortable caring for cats with special needs, giving oral medications. I truly value the human animal bond and treat every cat as if they were my own. I’m a strong communicator and provide regular updates and photos. I’m always happy to do a meet & greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit for both you and your cat. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! I currently work remotely. I can be flexible and work around your schedule. I would be happy To work from your home and spend more time with your cats if you want! I provide calm, routine focused care while respecting each cat’s boundaries. I keep environments clean and safe, follow instructions carefully, monitor for subtle changes, and communicate promptly with regular updates
“Karlee walked my dog during her stop in visits and sent photos for each walk. She was always on time and very very reliable. I highly recommend Karlee for your next pet care. I will always ask if Karlee is available First and every time. My 95 lb lab loves Miss Karlee !!! Your's will too.”
About: I am calm, observant, and attentive to every pets needs. I have participated in dog training, so understanding pet behavior is the core component that drives my work. I bring calm, structure, and authenticity to every visit! I am currently a graduate student pursuing mental health counseling, so I am able to care for your pets in between classes and during breaks! I provide calm, reliable, and attentive care for pets of all personalities. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique routine and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it’s a walk, or a drop in visit, I focus on communication and consistency to ensure a smooth visit!! I care deeply about animals and love to work toward making pets feel safe and comfortable.
“Maddalena is so helpful and flexible! I appreciate her thinking ahead- she saw it would be raining so she took our dog on a quick walk and then played with her inside. Dallie still got some energy out, and we couldn't be happier. :)”
“Allison was amazing with our 2 big dogs. She continues to be a favorite sitter! She sends us cute pictures and updates on the visit and I can enjoy my time away without worrying about them.”
About: I’ve been around animals ever since I was young! I’ve always wanted to take care of animals and now I want to do more than what there needs are. I work with animals about everyday, so I have worked with them more. I love getting to know each individual pet as I’m learning more! I’m willing to come check in on them every 4-8 hours and care for what they need done including feeding, potty breaks and walks if needed
About: I am a nearby teacher just looking to help you out with your dog/s! I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone else and I want it to be stress-free for you. I have a dog of my own, and I grew up with dogs all my life and love to be around them! I can socialize your pup with mine or keep them separate. I am free most weekends and holidays. I can go on a run and/or walk with your dog or just give them a little extra love and attention. I am a big fan of all dogs whether they are big or small. I also know some about cats if you need help with them as well. I am available on weekends and if needed can work in a Friday too. This allows me to put all my attention on your pets. I have one fur baby of my own that can easily be separated from your pup if needed. I also have easily access to a crate and a neighborhood dog park.
“Alyssa was great with Queijo! Offered to feed her and took care of a couple of messes for me. Happy she was available and glad that she enjoyed spending time with Queijo! Definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve spent my whole life around animals. When I was young my family always had a pet cat in the house. I even found our last cat at a farm nearby. He lived to be 16! As an adult I had several cats of my own and then I had my sweet dog Dax for 14 years. He passed a way a few years ago. We went EVERYWHERE together. He was my ride or die road dog and taught me what true unconditional love is. I will forever be so grateful for him and all the memories we shared. I’m in the process of pursing some creative artistic endeavors and am looking to build a flexible schedule to accommodate this. I have spent a lot of time behind a screen and I want to spend more of my time outside in the sunshine! I currently have a cat who is an indoor cat. She has a regular feeding schedule a gets lots of love from me, my boyfriend and his kids. I feel like safety and love are the key components to animal care. When I had a dog it was the same where we had a specific feeding schedule with plenty of physical activity, a yard to play in and lots of cuddles when it was chill time. I find that every animal has their own rhythm that you simply adapt to in order to provide attentive care.
