Personalized care for your dog or cat - Howard
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Howard
“Heather and her husband were so great with our dog, Sheeva. It was our first Rover experience and we had a wonderful experience with them. They sent photos and updates every day so we could see how she was doing and that was very much appreciated. Sheeva was a happy and tired girl when we picked her up so it was clear she had a great time. We will be booking with Heather again!”
“Melissa and family were great. Perfect location for me and Winnie had a blast. The daily pics let me know he was in great hands! I am glad I found Melissa and will use her again and again.”
“Shanna was incredible! She took care of our boy somewhat last minute + he honestly had more fun than he would have with us :) If we’re ever in town again, we would gladly leave Zeb in Shanna’s care.”
“Our one year old Bernese mountain dog, Maize, spent four nights with Jeff. She is curious, loves to be outside and check out new smells. His yard was perfect for her! Jeff was perfect for her. He took her on walks and gave her plenty of time to explore his backyard. Maizie was exhausted and slept the whole afternoon when we brought her home. I'm sure she was dreaming about her new friend. Super Experience! We already have another time booked.”
“Denise and her family were so wonderful! She sent pictures regularly and helped with scout when my flight was cancelled. Scout enjoyed her time with them and we are both grateful!”
“Melissa and her mother were very welcoming and accommodating for our stay with them. Due to a change in plans on my part, she allowed me to pick up my dog earlier than arranged which was very nice. They notified me of my dog's progress and sent pictures of her stay.”
“Kristal and Scott were really great sitters. My Sophia was well taken care of and loved by them. She sent me updates on her and pictures almost on a daily basis. I would recommend them and use them in the future.”
“Kaylyn did a great job with our dog. She gave us updates and we knew our dog was being well taken care of. He also gained a new doggie friend! We will be sure to use her services again when needed.”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Holly and her family are the best thing that could've happened to our 2 pups when we went on vacation! They truly treat them like they are part of their own family, and we received updates and pictures every day. We appreciate them so much for taking such good care, and we'll definitely be using Holly again for pet sitting. 1,000/5 stars!!! ❤️”
“Mary was amazing!! My dog does not normally like new people but he loved Mary and she took great care of him. I even had to book last minute because of a funeral. I was able to be fully present with my family at our time of loss because my dog was so well cared for. Thanks Mary!!”
“Colleen took such great care of Hoosier while we were gone! It is obvious she truly loves animals and they love her back. Our very anxious pup took to her right away and had such a great time with her.”
“Angela was amazing and went above and beyond for our pups. I felt comfortable from the moment I met her & she took excellent care of our 2 little dogs for 10 nights in her home during a historic blizzard. She still took them for walks & sent us updates throughout our trip. She was very accommodating with drop off & pick up times & I would absolutely use her again!”

I’m also a clear communicator and will always keep you in the loop while you're away. Looking forward to getting to know your pet! I work from home, so I am flexible about what time of day I can drop in on your pets. I can also bring my computer and work from your home if needed. Weekend availability varies but I keep my schedule up to date on Rover. I take care of pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment. I'll follow the routine you provide—whether it’s feeding, walks, or medication—and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, double-check doors and gates, and always keep you updated with how things are going. Whether it’s a drop-in, walk, or overnight stay, you can count on reliable care and clear communication.
“Highly recommended! Rebecca was incredibly convenient to work with from start to finish, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. I absolutely loved receiving constant updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. Our dog was so well cared for, and we will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Erin was amazing!!! This was the first time having someone other than family take care of our cats. She did great with our cats and our cats did extremely well with her, especially with being a new human for them. Definitely will be using Erin again!!”
“Awesome sitter, Nala is usually cranky when I get back but this time she was chill and happy. Melanie sent a whole bunch of adorable pictures each day for us, and even went out of her way to take a package in for us. Thank you so much!”
“Jenny was a lifesaver! She took great care of our chickens and even noticed that our indoor cat had accidentally gotten outside. She acted quickly to get him safely back inside, and we were so grateful. We really appreciate her attentiveness and highly recommend her!”
“Jeffery came for a drop by visit on short notice and did a wonderful job making Rio feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend him and will certainly be requesting his services again.”
“Angelica was a perfect house and cat sitter for my 3 high maintenance kitties. Although they never actually told me much about the 9 days Angelica spent with them, they were all healthy and as happy as they get when I returned. Everything was as it should be when we returned, definitely recommend Angie for pet sitting.”
“Meg is awesome! She watched my two kitties for a week and went above and beyond the expectations. She was super responsive and sent daily pics/updates, which was so great. I highly recommend her for watching your furry loved ones!”
“I was so anxious leaving my two cats while on a two week trip abroad - I’d never been away from them so far or for so long. It took a couple of days, but then they warmed right up to Jeanne. She had tuned into what they needed and provided consistent care - along with great updates and photos from each visit for me - allowing me to focus on my trip. When I returned, I found two happy, well-adjusted cats waiting for me. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands with Jeanne!”
“Carly is great! She did drop in visits with my two cats while I was out of town for 4 days. She sent me a lot of pictures and videos during her visits. The kitties were so happy when I returned home and I felt great about letting them stay in their own home!”
“Shanna was absolutely wonderful with our 3 sweet kitties. She went above and beyond caring for them and would definitely book her again for future care. Great communication!!”
About: I’ve cared for cats of all ages and personalities for years and genuinely love being around animals. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each cat’s individual needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, cuddly, or independent. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“I recently had the pleasure of having Cheyenne cat sit my two beloved cats, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. Cheyenne was attentive, caring and insured my cats were comfortable and well taken care of. Her reliability and dedication truly made a difference and I returned home to two very happy cats. I highly recommend Cheyenne to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. She is a true professional and a wonderful person who clearly loves what she does. My cats and I are grateful for her excellent care and will definitely be requesting her services again in the future if need be. Using the service for the first time, there were a lot of exceptional candidates to cat sit, but I am very happy with my decision to hire Cheyenne’s services, and you would be too. Thank you Cheyenne!”
“Eleanor was exceptional! Sweet, personable and eager to learn how to give our kitty her insulin injections! She came to our house 4 times on her own to practice and make sure we were both comfortable. She learned and practiced outside of our scheduled vacation times! Our kitty has multiple issues that were all handled with love and compassion. I can’t believe we found such an angel! Absolutely amazing. I will use her again and again and recommend her to everyone I know❤️”
“Maddy is the absolute BEST! This is our second time booking her for drop-in visits for our cat, and she does an amazing job every single time. So thoughtful and sweet. She is able to give our cat his meds and goes above and beyond every time. Thank you, Maddy!!”
“Breanna is exactly the person you need to care for your pet! She was flexible as we needed her last minute since our other sitter didn’t work out. She loved our kitten as her own. She took sweet photos and videos which helped when missing our baby. Her messages were detailed, and you could tell she got to know the personality of our kitten! Would highly recommend Breanna and would definitely have her as our sitter again!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. While I’m not able to have any furry companions of my own right now because of my current living situation, I truly miss having them in my life. I’d love the opportunity to give your pet plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, and, with your permission, a few well-deserved treats! I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Howard
“Shanna is a delight and took fantastic care of Keely. I only wish she lived closer to our home so she could be our full time sitter. Our dog came home happy and exhausted.”
“I couldn’t have been happier with the care and attention Breanna gave to our pets. The whole process was so easy and Breanna was very accommodating. She sent pictures and messages to let me know how our babies were doing and allowed us to have a great day without worrying about our pets. She is a very sweet girl with an obvious love for animals. An overall outstanding experience; I would highly recommend her!!!”
“I feel so comfortable leaving my pup with Melissa. My pup has such a good time and always comes home tired from playing all day! Would recommend, have used her more than once, and will definitely use her in the future.”

“Melanie took great care of Sadie. Sadie had an amazing time working on new commands/tricks, getting her zoomies out in the yard, and playing with puzzle toys! I would 100% recommend Melanie to anyone looking for daycare or other services. She was very responsive and a pleasure to have watch Sadie.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who recently retired, and I’m looking to fill my days with some extra puppy love. My pup, Cullen, and I are a duo that loves company. Since I’m home throughout the day, your dog will have constant supervision, plenty of backyard time, and all the belly rubs they can handle. We’re looking for friendly companions to join us for neighborhood strolls and afternoon naps. Your pup won’t just be "staying" here—they’ll be part of the family! Since I am retired, my schedule is completely dedicated to pet care. Your dog will enjoy 24/7 companionship and a consistent routine, as I am home full-time to provide potty breaks, backyard play, and plenty of cuddles. Cullen and I are very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and we look forward to a Meet & Greet to ensure a perfect match! We offer a fully fenced-in backyard featuring a beautiful koi pond. To ensure a safe and harmonious environment for everyone, I look for guest dogs who have a solid foundation in basic obedience and a 'gentle' temperament around water and wildlife. My own dog loves making new friends, and I prioritize active supervision to ensure all 'fur babies'—and my fish—stay happy and safe!
“Olivia had great communication and flexibility with drop off and pick up times. My dogs were very happy and pooped out from playing all day. I most certainly would have Olivia take care of Daisy and Theo again.”
“Mackenzie was an absolute joy to work with! She was highly communicative and we could tell she was very much a dog lover! Muggs had such a great time at her house with her. She asked all the right questions and we felt very comfortable with Mackenzie. Muggs will be back to visit! 😃👍🏼 Thanks Mackenzie!”
“I truly appreciate Colleen for taking care of my fur baby all day! She is super nice and took very good care of my fur baby! I definitely recommend her. If and when I am back in Greenbay I will for sure do another booking with her.”

Thank you Jenn, we look forward to your future visits.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up around animals and have experience helping care for a wide variety of pets. This has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand the unique needs and personalities of different animals. I grew up with Labrador Retrievers and have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care and attention. Whether it's feeding, exercise, playtime, walks, or simply providing companionship, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I am dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets like they are my own. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and my goal is to give owners peace of mind while providing their pets with the care, love, and attention they deserve. As a college student who works part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I carefully manage my classes and work hours so I can give pets the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Because I genuinely enjoy being around animals, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding, playtime, or evening visits, I am committed to making sure pets stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, responsive, and dedicated to following each pet's routine to help them feel safe and at ease. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow each pet owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication needs, and any special care requirements. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and routine so I can provide consistent care and minimize stress while their family is away. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I also respect my clients' homes by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as they left it. My goal is to provide dependable, trustworthy care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.
About: I have owned 6 dogs, 1 cat (family pets), a bearded dragon and 4 hamsters throughout my lifetime. I have also cared for other small animals such as guinea pigs, rabbits, leopard geckos, and more! I am consistently doing research on a variety of animals (even ones I never plan to own) because I liked to be informed about all different types of care. I am mostly available in the afternoons as I am a college student and part-time employee with two businesses. However, I am available in the early(ish) mornings on select days. Given enough notice I can make myself more available and work around my class and work schedules. I am very thorough when it comes to animal care. I research immensely when it comes to new species, and I follow directions carefully to ensure everything is done properly. I know how much my animals mean to me, which means other peoples animals mean just as much to them.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was a child for friends, neighbors, and family. I also have 10+ years of experience working in an animal hospital and I am comfortable with administering medical treatment when needed. I am relatively new to the area with an open schedule during the day that allows me to spend plenty of time getting to know your companion animals. Safety is a priority for me so I make sure to follow your specifications pertaining to your animal. No two animals are alike and I will ensure that I follow your guidelines on what is right for you and your pet.

I currently have two dogs of my own that I love so much and take care of each day. I love to go on walks, long or short. Additionally, I have helped out neighbors and friends throughout the years with taking care of their fluffy family members!

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life family and friends pets and enjoy playing and taking care of them when needed love dogs of all sizes I’m currently working full time but love animals and helping with them where I can. Going on walks or just throwing a ball around I can do it all. Whether your fur baby likes to lounge around or be active I enjoy both and with 3 children at home keeping track and cleaning up after them is a regular past time of mine.
About: I have two French Bulldogs, Louie and Rufus and often dog sit for my siblings. I enjoy being outside and taking dogs for a walk. Retired, which leaves me with lots of free time. I enjoy spending time with my two dogs, Louie and Rufus and my 8 year old grandson. I will happily walk your dog(s) and/or drop in for a play date. I care deeply for dogs and am safe and responsible at all times.
“Amme does a great job scheduling times and walking my dog each week. Willie gets a full walk and Amme really cares about my dog. She’s very kind and caring and goes the extra mile on every visit! Thank you so much for spending time with my best friend when I’m not able to. I feel so much better each time that he is getting the attention he needs and deserves and Amme provides that each and every time.”
About: I'm high energy and giving. I grew up with big dogs my entire life and this is the first time I have been without one in awhile. My golden retriever passed away last summer and in due time I will be getting another dog. In the meantime it brings me here so I can help others when they need it. I have experience training puppies and my father and I helped out a breeder of goldens for awhile. I enjoy finding new toys or things for dogs to do to enhance their cognitive abilities and regular exercise is important to me. I look forward to getting to know you and your dog! I'm currently working on being a bookkeeper, so I have more free time with my schedule. As of now I'm a full time oral surgery assistant, working 7am-4pm. I had a routine when I had my golden which included waking up, eat our breakfast and then go for a nice walk, followed with our daily trip to the dog park. I moved to a duplex, so boarding dogs is a bit harder for me now. However, I am still open to having them stay with me if they do okay with walks. I make sure the house is clean and safe, especially having a puppy. I keep a plethora of toys available, daily walks, grooming appointments and food. I do everything to make sure any dog is living their best life, because they're the angels that walk this earth.
About: I have grown up with pets, dogs specifically my entire life! I love dogs of all ages, all shapes and sizes! Having an animal companion to spend time with is some of the best company you can ever have! In my family I have helped raise/train puppies, we have also fostered in my household, and I have taken care of animals for friends and family. I am a very active person, I teach phy ed, so I love getting out for walks or runs. I am a teacher, so during the summer my hours are pretty flexible. I do have to teach summer school in the mornings for a short period of time, but then I am available for mid morning or lunch time pet breaks! Making sure all animals are safe and well taken care of is very important to me. Following instructions on how a dog best responds is very critical. Dogs are animals of habit when trained, so I want to continue to follow routines and expectations that their owner has. In my full time job I am trusted with children and I understand that for many people, pets are loved just as much as a child.
“Finley enjoys continuity of having Katherine or Liam to take him for walks. Finley’s parents want honest, trustworthy and kind humans to care for their dog when away at work. Katherine and Liam are those people!”
“Meg is amazing!!! She has been a total life saver. I work long hours in the health care field and she has been walking Benny everyday during the week . She comes between 11:00-1:00 everyday. Benny loves her! He is a much happier dog with a way better quality of life. Her training experience has made a difference. I notice he walks better on his leash with me and my son since Meg has been walking him too. I would highly recommend Meg.”

“Kaylyn did a great job with our dog. She gave us updates and we knew our dog was being well taken care of. He also gained a new doggie friend! We will be sure to use her services again when needed.”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Holly and her family are the best thing that could've happened to our 2 pups when we went on vacation! They truly treat them like they are part of their own family, and we received updates and pictures every day. We appreciate them so much for taking such good care, and we'll definitely be using Holly again for pet sitting. 1,000/5 stars!!! ❤️”
“Angela was amazing and went above and beyond for our pups. I felt comfortable from the moment I met her & she took excellent care of our 2 little dogs for 10 nights in her home during a historic blizzard. She still took them for walks & sent us updates throughout our trip. She was very accommodating with drop off & pick up times & I would absolutely use her again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs, cats and other pets my whole life. I grew up on a hobby farm and have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages—from kittens and puppies to seniors. I currently have two dogs of my own and know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Since I work from home, I’m able to be flexible and give your pet the attention they deserve, whether that’s regular walks, check-ins, or just some extra company during the day. I’m also a clear communicator and will always keep you in the loop while you're away. Looking forward to getting to know your pet! I work from home, so I am flexible about what time of day I can drop in on your pets. I can also bring my computer and work from your home if needed. Weekend availability varies but I keep my schedule up to date on Rover. I take care of pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment. I'll follow the routine you provide—whether it’s feeding, walks, or medication—and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, double-check doors and gates, and always keep you updated with how things are going. Whether it’s a drop-in, walk, or overnight stay, you can count on reliable care and clear communication.
“Highly recommended! Rebecca was incredibly convenient to work with from start to finish, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. I absolutely loved receiving constant updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. Our dog was so well cared for, and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Great set up with the yard...friendly dogs...and Tara and her husband were very communicative. Dealing with them made you feel like they really cared and it wasn't just a job. Definitely recommend!”
“I absolutly love Alex and her husband. They are very flexible and are wonderful with my boy. They have always welcomed him with open arms and are so easy and a joy to work with. I love getting pictures and updates while I am away and can always trust my boy will have a great time. It's also always a joy to see their two dogs. I know my dog is safe and happy with Alex while I am away.”
“Our pup was so happy to be at Breanna and Olivia’s! He loved playing with their dogs. I appreciated all the photos that were shared during his stay. It was clear he was well cared for. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
About: I am a young energetic dog owner of two 1 year-old puppies that have high energy and love to play in our big fenced in backyard. I have also taken care of pets since I was young and grew a passion for it! I do make the schedule for the shop I work at and the partner I live with is the owner of the shop, so we are able to work around the needs of clients as well as the needs for our own dogs. I have a fenced in yard that has plenty of space for the dogs to run around in and two friendly dogs that love other dogs. I am also willing to navigate around people’s feeding schedules or daily routines that are made for their dogs as well!
“Absolutely perfect experience. Shelby has a great set up in her home (with a fenced in yard). She knows how to introduce dogs to each other and gives them all the love. We received pictures and updates of our Henry and he came back tired (from playtime) and happy.”
