“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sarah accommodated our last-minute request to watch our 3-month-old puppy for two days. Rip and Mayla were so friendly and playful when we stopped by for a meet and greet. And Sarah's obvious expertise and calm demeanor made it clear that this was a good fit for us. She was always quick with responses, sent daily updates with several pictures spanning the course of the day, and gave a very thorough rundown of how our puppy did his entire time there when we arrived to pick him up. It was clear that she had his best interests at heart. And any time we need a puppy sitter, she will be the first person we contact. 10/10 Highly recommend.”
“Emma was a great sitter during our weekend away! She sent tons of great pictures, took Tico for a walks and best of all, her dogs and Tico loved each other and played all weekend. He was exhausted when he got home. Happy dog, happy us! Thanks Emma!”
“Brandi kept our yappy dachshund for the second time this fall, and we very much appreciate Brandi’s patience and love she gave our pup. Brandi has other pets in the house, which to us is a bonus, since it gives our dog some much needed experience with other dogs! We highly recommend Brandi!”
“Heather and her family welcomed Darcy back to their home with open arms. She sent photos of Darcy throughout her stay so we could see how she was doing. She looked so happy and comfortable in their home. This was her second stay and we’ve already booked another. We are so grateful to have found this home away from home for Darcy!”
“Emily was great with our big, young and very energetic dog! She has a great fenced in yard and our dog had a blast! He was very tired when he got home! We would definitely use her again!”
“Stacy welcomed my dog into her house and treated him as her own. Rudy loved playing and snuggling with her family! She communicated well and made sure she understood his needs. I will use Stacy again.”
About: I've been a dog owner for as long as I can remember. I currently have one nine year old Chihuahua mix on seizure medicine twice a day. We have a fenced in yard with a chain link fence perfect for letting your dog run around. I am usually up by 5am to go for a run or cycle. I work from home regularly so I can be flexible with letting the dogs out. I have a fenced in yard with one friendly dog of my own to keep your dog company. I have cameras in the home to keep an eye on the pups if I do need to run out.
“5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!”
“Brittany was very sweet and easy going. She took excellent care of our dog and sent picture updates while we were gone. We will definitely contact her in the future when we need pet sitting again!”
About: My husband and I are frequently taking care of our grand pups! Both 4 years old. We treat them like our own. One’s a chocolate lab, the other is a dachshund. I am an early riser. I get my morning exercise done then am pretty free the rest of the day. With the exception of an occasional appointment here and there. We do not have a fenced yard but would do daily walks. We have a path near our home. We also have lots of dog toys.
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“We left our dog Toffee with Jenny and her family for 5 days while we attended a work conference, and we could not have asked for a better experience! This was our first time using Rover and leaving Toffee with someone we didn’t know, so we were definitely nervous at first. Jenny immediately made us feel comfortable with constant updates, pictures, and videos throughout the entire stay. Toffee had the absolute best time running around in her huge backyard, playing with her kids and her two dogs, and getting so much love and attention. It truly felt like he was treated as part of their family. You can tell Jenny genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing Toffee was happy, safe, and so well cared for. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be booking with Jenny and her lovely family again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Sure! Here's a thoughtful review you can leave for Ryan and Martha: --- Ryan and Martha were absolutely wonderful with Yogi! From the start, their communication was excellent — clear, prompt, and always thoughtful. They made dropoff and pickup incredibly easy and were very flexible with the timing, which we really appreciated. Throughout Yogi’s stay, they sent us regular updates and the sweetest photos that clearly showed how happy and comfortable he was. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can tell they genuinely care about animals and treat them like part of the family. We would absolutely trust them with Yogi again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and communicative pet sitters.”
“Jessica was phenomenal! She watched our 2 dogs over our wedding weekend. We wanted one of them to join us for a bit and she was so helpful, even came and picked her up. She sent lots of photos and updates. We had a meet and greet on her yard so our dogs could meet hers. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: Friendly, warm, and welcoming. I have plenty of indoor and outdoor space to roam in my home plus a fenced in backyard. I've had dogs in the home since I was child and have been caring full-time for my dog for 7 years. I have previous experience with in-home boarding for some of my co-workers and have cared for dogs with nervous bladders. I currently work full time, but am always home in the evenings for plenty of playtime and walks. I can be flexible with pick up and drop off times with at least a day's notice to work with your schedule. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space to roam inside my home. Dogs are welcome on the furniture or in bed if they need some extra cuddle time. I can crate your dogs if needed during the day and my own pup is crate trained for while I'm away.
“Ryan and his family did an amazing job taking care of our dog Tuck! They sent us videos and text messages to keep us informed about how he was doing. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for! We will definitely rebook with Ryan in the future!”

“Zackary was so awesome! We was super communicative and seemed to spend a lot of time at home with our two kitties boys. He asked questions when needed, checked in often and sent cute pictures! Our kitties were definitely happy when we got home and he was respectful of our space. Thank you so much Zack, the boys will be happy to see you in the future 😊”
“Kayla is an animal-lover through and through! She is polite, professional, and was exceptionally kind to my bunny. I felt comfortable with her in my home, and welcomed her daughter (who is also and animal-lover) who befriended my sweet bunny! I got cute pictures, she followed all my crazy instructions, and left my pet and my space exactly how I asked her to. I will definitely go to Kayla next time I am in need of a pet sitter! 🙋🏻♀️”

I have experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments, from playful kittens to independent or senior cats. My cat care includes feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, medication if required, and companionship tailored to each cat’s comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys interactive play or prefers quiet company, I make sure they feel secure, stress-free, and well cared for in their home environment.
“I have nothing but good things to say about Tia! Only having her for a week now watching my cane corso, I would absolutely recommend her for your pet drop in visits! I will continue to book with her as my schedule fits perfectly with her availability. A big thank you to her for being so good to my baby”
“Chanse was phenomenal! I left my cat with her for a long weekend and everything went so well! Chanse made every effort to make my pet feel comfortable at her home, updated me regularly with photos, and truly treated her as if she was part of her family. She communicated well, went out of her way to purchase some treats to help my cat acclimate, asked thoughtful questions, and truly cared about the wellbeing of my pet. Her home is very welcoming and safe, and I would absolutely trust her again with any pet. I highly recommend Chanse for any of your pet needs!”

“Sarah and her pack did awesome!!! Can't thank her enough for taking in Winnie on such short notice. When I picked up Winnie I was taken back at how much Winnie had bonded with Sarah in such a short period of time. Sarah was aware of Winnie's IBD issues and updated me on how she did. I really appreciated her for that!!!! This family definitely loves dogs!!!”
“Chanse was top tier and made my puppy’s stay the best it could be! She worked with him on his house breaking, playing with her children, helping him fall asleep when anxious, and helping when he had an upset tummy by feeding him chicken and rice. This was my first time boarding my puppy and I have to say, working with Chanse was well worth the 45 minute drive out to Janesville. Thank you so much Chanse, I will definitely be booking again with you on my next trip!”
About: I have always had a dog or multiple dogs in my life. I treat them like family. My friends come to me when they need their dogs watched! I am currently unemployed. I had experience working with animals at Petco and I had a previous job working with puppies from age 8weeks up and LOVED it! I would like to do it again. I have two chihuahuas that are allowed to have free roam of the house and yard. They know their boundaries and do not get leashed in the yard. They are allowed on anything but the counters and table! Sleep with me every night and go on walks. I have one with allergies to grass and he gets bathed regularly.
“Brandi was amazing! She helped us out on short notice, took great care of our dog, and sent lots of photos and updates throughout the day. Our dog is usually very anxious, but he felt comfortable with her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We felt completely confident leaving him in her care and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“So flexible and helpful with my pup! I trust her 100% and know when I pick my dog up she will be tired from playing outside, with toys or with other dogs! I highly recommend Ashlee and will continue to use her for all of our dog sitting needs!”
“Nicole is absolutely wonderful. I came to her with a dog who was super anxious at his last sitter (to no fault of the sitter), stubborn, and a senior, and she is so understanding and kind. Ollie is vocal and set in his ways, and she was able to make his experience super positive and he really seemed to like her. I will absolutely be booking her anytime she is available, and as long as she wants Ollie back.”
“Absolutely amazing experience with our dog sitters! 🐾 They took such incredible care of my mini dachshunds, Nugget and Muffin, and treated them like their own. I got updates, photos, and total peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious how much they truly love animals, and my pups came home happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. Nugget and Muffin can be a little spoiled and needy at times, but they were so patient, attentive, and loving with them. I honestly couldn’t ask for better people to trust with my dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitters! 💕”

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs as well as competition trained dogs. Being crate trained is a must for overnight stays. I do have 1 large crate here but encourage you to bring your pet's crate from home if able. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. I wash all toys and blankets and sanitize all the floors and dishes between every stay.

Daily, I care for my pups at home and livestock on our farm. Our doggies really love when they get to join us on our farm, which gave me the interest in offering doggy daycare at our farm so other pups can enjoy it too! Lots of smells and experiences to enjoy on a farm! I have a fenced in indoor and outdoor play area for my dogs. I leash all dogs while not in designated dog areas. Designated potty breaks, supervised play time with adequate rest as well.

“Emily responded quickly to my request for daycare and we did a meet & greet the day before to make sure my dog Wolfie and her two dogs Gus & Bailey got along. It was perfect, all was good. The actual day of daycare Wolfie couldn’t wait to get inside Emily’s house! Wolfie played a lot and was very chill/tired for the evening. Emily is very nice and took great care of my pup! Highly recommend. Thanks Emily!!”
About: Thanks, Hi, I’m Rylea! I’m a 24-year-old animal lover who has been in the animal care field my entire life. My passion for animals continues to grow with every new experience. I’ve worked as a caregiver at an animal boarding facility, volunteered for 7 years as a Feline Friend at the Dane County Humane Society, worked as a veterinary technician, and spent time in doggy daycare. I now run my own dog grooming business, where I specialize in compassionate, personalized care for every pup. One day, I hope to open a doggy daycare and boarding facility to provide even more services to the pets and people in my community. I’m a flexible, caring person who truly enjoys connecting with pets and their people. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them the love and attention they deserve! I'm the proud owner of a dog grooming business. I love all animals and at this time have plenty of time to also help pet owners who need a good dog sitter or dog walker. In my own home I have a wide open yard but also a fenced in area. I tend to take care of pets in the ways that the owners prefer, to keep the normal routine even though they are in a different home. I also have a dog that loves to play and go on walks so I make it part of my life. My dog would love to have a Friend to play with. If I go to a client's house I tend to follow order on what owners do or want done during the day. It is very important. I would treat your animals as I would my own to create a bond and trust with them.
About: I've cared for cats and dogs my own as well as other owners, for the last 20-plus years I also have experience with other kinds of animals. I protect animals fiercely and I am extremely receptive of detail and specifics that any pet owner may have for me. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.
“We felt so comfortable leaving our puppy with Maura, she was in great hands and was showered with so much love the entire time she was there. We are so thankful we found her!”

I’ve taken care of up to 3 dogs and 2 cats at once so I’m comfortable with many animals. I enjoy dog walking, great way to burn off their energy or taking them to the dog park if ok with owners. I don’t mind grooming or bathing dogs. I live in an apartment so I can take care of up to 2-3 dogs per day/night. I am very flexible to the type of training per owner, just let me know your preference. I have two cats myself so the dogs would have to be ok with them otherwise there is a separate room I can put them in for the day, nights would not work unfortunately. I’m in school currently for veterinarian and would love a small side job for extra cash. I currently work 1p-8:30p so I would be able to walk/drop in early and mid mornings and late evenings. I don’t work weekends so if you need a getaway I can watch over your babies so you can relax! I have a large yard, not fenced in but have a 200ft zip line leash. I have two extra bedrooms if your pet needs some alone time. My husband and I have one dog who is 7 months and loves to play. I am very comfortable with specific needs for your pets. My goal is to make them comfortable in my home or yours.

“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sarah accommodated our last-minute request to watch our 3-month-old puppy for two days. Rip and Mayla were so friendly and playful when we stopped by for a meet and greet. And Sarah's obvious expertise and calm demeanor made it clear that this was a good fit for us. She was always quick with responses, sent daily updates with several pictures spanning the course of the day, and gave a very thorough rundown of how our puppy did his entire time there when we arrived to pick him up. It was clear that she had his best interests at heart. And any time we need a puppy sitter, she will be the first person we contact. 10/10 Highly recommend.”
“Emma was a great sitter during our weekend away! She sent tons of great pictures, took Tico for a walks and best of all, her dogs and Tico loved each other and played all weekend. He was exhausted when he got home. Happy dog, happy us! Thanks Emma!”
“Brandi kept our yappy dachshund for the second time this fall, and we very much appreciate Brandi’s patience and love she gave our pup. Brandi has other pets in the house, which to us is a bonus, since it gives our dog some much needed experience with other dogs! We highly recommend Brandi!”
“Heather and her family welcomed Darcy back to their home with open arms. She sent photos of Darcy throughout her stay so we could see how she was doing. She looked so happy and comfortable in their home. This was her second stay and we’ve already booked another. We are so grateful to have found this home away from home for Darcy!”
“Emily was great with our big, young and very energetic dog! She has a great fenced in yard and our dog had a blast! He was very tired when he got home! We would definitely use her again!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“Sure! Here's a thoughtful review you can leave for Ryan and Martha: --- Ryan and Martha were absolutely wonderful with Yogi! From the start, their communication was excellent — clear, prompt, and always thoughtful. They made dropoff and pickup incredibly easy and were very flexible with the timing, which we really appreciated. Throughout Yogi’s stay, they sent us regular updates and the sweetest photos that clearly showed how happy and comfortable he was. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can tell they genuinely care about animals and treat them like part of the family. We would absolutely trust them with Yogi again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and communicative pet sitters.”
“Jessica was phenomenal! She watched our 2 dogs over our wedding weekend. We wanted one of them to join us for a bit and she was so helpful, even came and picked her up. She sent lots of photos and updates. We had a meet and greet on her yard so our dogs could meet hers. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Ryan and his family did an amazing job taking care of our dog Tuck! They sent us videos and text messages to keep us informed about how he was doing. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for! We will definitely rebook with Ryan in the future!”
“Pick-up and drop-off were very easy. Juan sent lots of pictures of updates throughout the weekend and the dogs seem to have done well. Happy with our pet-sitting experience with Juan!”
“The dogs had a great time during their first stay here! Sumer and her family were able to take them some what short notice as our long time boarder was unexpectedly moving out of town and we really appreciated that. They took great care of the dogs and our dogs had fun playing with their pups. They have a good size backyard and we were happy to get pictures and updates that they were doing well. Thanks again!”
“Lindsay took great care of my dog, Taydo. Long walks, snoozes on her couch, and photos to keep me updated. I believe LIndsay to be completely trustworthy which is really important for a pet sitter.”
“Teddy stayed with Maggie and her family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Maggie and her family are incredibly kind and welcoming, and Maggie’s communication was excellent from start to finish. She was also very flexible, which we really appreciated. We always feel confident that Teddy is well loved and well cared for when he stays with them. We will absolutely use Maggie and her family again and highly recommend them to others.”
“Brad was really great with communication and flexible. Cass seemed to have fit in well with his pack and made herself right at home in his place. I would definitely let Brad watch my doggo again :)”
“Christine once again did a wonderful job caring for Georgie. We got many pictures every day, and he seemed to really enjoy running around her new, big yard! I also really appreciated the willingness to coordinate pickup and drop-off closer to home since we're coming from Madison.”
“I was nervous leaving our anxious dog with someone else, but Robert was patient with his interactions with Kipling and allowed Kipling to settle in at his own pace. Kipling had fun running around the fenced in yard with another dog and Robert kept us up to date with progress reports. Looking forward to the next visit where we can feel confident Kipling is being looked after.”
