“Michelle and her family are the greatest. I screwed up the schedule and literally dropped my dog off at her house at 7 am ON THE WRONG DAY, and she was so accommodating, flexible, and kind about it. She took such good care of my dog Luna and provided daily updates and pictures. 100% recommend and will use her again!!”

“Kristin and Bruce were fantastic. From the moment we stepped into their home they were welcoming of us and our dog, and it was obvious we made the right choice. They were loving and caring and we are certain that carried on throughout our dogs stay with them. Pictures and updates were sent and they kept to her normal routine, even when sleeping. Our dog was excited to see us again...but was torn and demanding good byes from Kristen, Bruce, and the kids (hoping to go back). Definitely a wonderful experience for us and your dog!”

“Jenny and her family did an excellent job watching Teddy and giving him the best experience during the holidays. It was even his birthday and they went above and beyond to throw a birthday party for him! We are so appreciative of how well Teddy was treated and all the photo updates were reassuring. Teddy is looking forward to his next stay! Highly recommend! 🤍”

“I truly can't say enough wonderful things about Henry's stay with Ryan and Martha's family! They were so kind and accommodating when my travel plans changed several times, and I could tell that Henry was very loved and well cared for. They sent updates and pictures throughout the week, and they were very responsive. It was the best peace of mind having him stay with them, and I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

“Robert was amazing. I got updates from him regularly with photos of Baby. I didn’t even have to ask. He has the cutest little French bulldog that kept Baby company as well. Will definitely be booking with him 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.”

“Excellent! I really appreciated all the updates and photos from Stefanie. Great communication and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Will definitely use again in future.”


“Our three dogs had a great night with Allison! She was easy to work with and laid back. Dogs got to chill on the couch, luxury access to special beds and blankets. Thanks for a great stay!”

“Remy had an amazing stay! He's a little special because of his tummy issues, so it is very hard for me to leave him at all, but it's just a little easier knowing he's in caring hands. Thank you so much for all of the photos and updates. I really appreciate all that you did to make him comfortable. Remy sends his love!”

“Edith sent many photos and kept me informed from the moment Ollie was dropped off until I picked him up. He was well taken care of and I would definitely ask her to watch him again.”

“Taylor is a fantastic sitter!! Super friendly, she sent daily pictures and updates of our sweet Maggie. It was truly a home away from home from her. Next time we're out of town, Taylor will be the first to come to mind!”

“Hannah and family were amazing! It was clear from the pictures she shared that they felt safe and happy while we were away. Hannah sent lots of pictures and was so easy to communicate with. We already have another reservation booked with her!!”

“Sofi took incredible care of our girl! She was always responsive and sent us frequent updates where I could see how happy Kiwi was. She is very knowledgeable about pet care and I would trust her with Kiwi anytime! Thank you again for giving so much love to Kiwi!!”

“Cleda took great care of our pups, Nala and Riley! She kept us updated daily with photos and had good communication with us throughout our trip away. Our pups are a handful of energy and we felt very secure with Cleda and knew that they were in good hands. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Ronalisa is very kind. She has a really nice yard for Spunky and Boss to run around. Very responsive. My dogs enjoyed their staycation with her and her fur babies. Spunky and Boss came home tired and happy. Recommend her 10/10.”


“Elmer absolutely loved staying with Manjusha and Midhun. They sent so many wonderful updates and photos, and kept him well entertained. He was only slightly disappointed to be leaving them to come back home with us 😋. I'd definitely book with them again! Easy to communicate with and flexible with scheduling.”

“Natalie was an incredible pet sitter. She took such great care of my cat and our rats. She checked in using the Rover card system and sent pics each day of the boys. Would definitely recommend her!”


“Tucker was amazing — he took great care of my fur baby and provided pics regularly AND he was gracious and unflappable in the face of some unforeseen challenges. Flexible, great communicator, and left the house cleaner than he found it. Great with following directions and proactively taking care of all the things — he even noticed the light on the automatic feeder and refilled it before I even messaged him about the notification I’d received. Perhaps best of all, he saw AJ for the loving, playful kitty that he is—so I knew AJ was feeling comfortable and that he was in good, kind hands. Would definitely recommend to others and would be glad to have his help again!”


“I was very happy with Michelle's care of my cat Michael !! She communicated with me and sent the cutest pictures each day. Made me feel much better about going away, which is Huge !”


“Emily is awesome. She took care of my Curry Boi and Chickpea. She fed them and took pictures for peace of mind . You can tell she really cares about them . Thanks Emily for all you do !!”


“Janay is kind, responsive, and great with cats! She has taken care of my two boys twice now, and the experience has been wonderful each time. She takes the time to understand your pets' needs and gives detailed updates on how they're doing. I had to book the most recent visits very last minute, and she was super understanding, which I greatly appreciated. I'd trust her to take care of my cats any time :)”

“Austin took incredible care of our two cats! He is an excellent communicator and I loved all his photos and updates. I highly recommend Austin for your pet sitting needs!”

“10/10 recommend! I was able to rest easy knowing my cats were taken care of by Taylor while I went on a spontaneous trip out of town. She gave them treats of her own & gained their trust quickly. I’ll be rebooking in the future without a doubt”


About: I’ve had cats all my life and often have luck getting cats people say don’t like men to cuddle up with me. My current cat has several health conditions so I’m used to taking care of cats who need a little extra care.

“Carlee did an excellent job taking care of my two cats. I felt totally comfortable with her after our meet and greet where her cat knowledge became clear. My cats loved her and I had peace of mind knowing they were in good hands.”

“We love Courtney! She gives excellent updates and really loves our geriatric kitty. We know he has wonderful care when she visits and highly recommend 🩷🩷🩷”

“Jess did a great job taking care of my cat! My cat hides from new people, and she still took the time to find her and send me a photo. The updates she wrote with each check-in always made me so happy. I had to rush and change my travel plans and she was incredibly accommodating, helpful, and was able to change my booking to reflect my new travel dates! I would highly recommend Jess to take care of your pets.”

“Louisa and her daughter did a great job of communicating with me, though their stay was short. My cat loved the attention they gave her. Her coat was beautifully soft and clean from all the brushing. I would definitely schedule them again when I am out of town.”


“Robert cared for our two cats over a 13 day span. He was so caring and supportive of them. We are very grateful to have peace of mind while we were away. His daily updates brought us a smile. Thank you Robert!”


“Erin was awesome! I would absolutely book her again. I loved how she took pictures and always kept me in the loop about what was going on with Sven while I was away.”


“Stacey did a great job watching my cat! She was communicative prior to the booking. She provided detailed messages and lot of pictures. She and my cat got along great.”


“We always come back to happy and healthy kitties with Marri! She also manages to get really good pictures of our cats every time she stops by which makes it way easier to be away.”

“Jenny and Darin were great! They provided updates throughout the day and took great care of our slightly anxious puppy :) Will definitely book with them again!”

“Julie let me know a new dog would be present at the same time as my dog, and she made sure to attempt to make introduce successful with a 3rd dog. She let me know she was able to keep dogs in separate areas as needed, let dogs have space from each other, and make sure my pup was safe and comfortable.”

“Fast response, super friendly. Taylor was able to take our pup at short notice so we could have a family outing and not worry about the dog. He played all day and had a great time.”


“Allison was great! She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and updates. I felt very comfortable knowing Hodu was in good hands. Would definitely book with her again!”

“My pup loves daycare with Bobby. He is typically anxious when I leave him, but not with Bobby! He gets so excited to jump out of the car and spend the day in Bobby’s beautiful yard & enjoy walks around the neighborhood. He is satisfied and tired when he gets home, and it relieves the pressure for me to fit in longer walks after the workday. Despite managing other day-to-day commitments through Rover, Bobby provides my dog the attention and care he needs to make him comfortable and happy. Bobby’s home has plenty of space to make any dog feel at home and fit various needs. I’m so grateful I found Bobby close by and I recommend his daycare service to anyone trying to find a flexible, communicative, and friendly daycare option for their doggo!”

“Kristin and Bruce provided exceptional daycare services. My senior dog initially had anxiety being in a different home. Kristen and Bruce were very attentive and made her feel comfortable.”

“Wolfy had such a great day with Mary and her family. He can back very happy, and Mary sent several lovely photos of his time. Mary was also flexible with me when my plans changed after booking, which was so appreciated.”
“Grace was great to work with! She was very quick to respond and provided me with the peace of mind that my dog was well taken care of. Highly recommend Grace to anyone in the Madison area!”


About: I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had experience with animals of all kinds and learned early on that every animal has their own personality, needs, and quirks! Whether your dog needs a long walk, some extra playtime, medication reminders, or just someone to keep them company, I’m happy to help. I’m also comfortable with puppies, energetic dogs, and senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Also at my fiance’s flower shop pets are welcome, so I’m often around animals even when I’m not at home. This makes it easy for me to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I work from home, so they’ll have plenty of company throughout the day, along with walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I grew up on a farm around all kinds of animals, and I really enjoy having pets around. I’m happy to let them settle into their own routine, whether that means playing fetch all afternoon, curling up on the couch, or taking a nice long nap. I’ll follow any instructions you leave and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with us.
“Christine was awesome. She took a late booking and looked after Ollie for the day. She sent updates, photos and made sure she was a good fit before her stay. Will book again”

About: Former full-time human medical provider of 18 years; now available for pup sitting. Takes frequent walks with the neighborhood dog pack. Owner of one special dog named Tennessee. I’m free to organize my schedule between pet sitting and working on my business. Currently available most days until July 20th! Will update calendar when I know more. I like routine. I think pets appreciate kibble and potty breaks on a familiar schedule. I will honor your wishes for care, play, walks, and socializing.
About: We will care for your dog like our own! Since our wonderful dog Stella passed we are looking to add more positive dog energy to our home. I am experienced with senior care; giving medications and supporting older dogs. I also have 4 years experience with dog walking and welcome energetic dogs. Both my husband and I work from home and will keep your dog company and make sure all needs are met. We have two children, ages 8 and 10, who have been raised to love and respect dogs and other animals. We only sit dogs from one household at a time so you can rely on individualized, attentive care. We have a fenced backyard and one friendly dog, Izzy. We will be your dog’s home away from home, with lots of exercise, cuddling, and fun.
“Manuela was great with our dog and I know our dog loved spending time with her! I was nervous to leave our dog with a new person at first, but Manuela met us beforehand and made sure we were comfortable. I would definitely recommend Manuela to anyone looking for care for their pet! She treats pets as if they were her own!”

“Hanna watched my Kira today. She sent me pictures and assured me that Kira was having a great time. She has a nice fenced yard and her dog Sadie is so sweet! Sadie also has the same amount of energy as my dog, they played well together. Kira is wiped out from today’s play day and can’t wait to see Hanna and Sadie again next week!”

“Grace was a wonderful host for our Golden retriever puppy. She took excellent care of Scout and was very communicative. She even took the time to brush out some of the tangles behind Scouts ears!”

“Helen and her mom were so great to my pup Rooster. They took him on two walks and sent several pictures, which put my mind at ease. Definitely recommend!”

“Hannah has been amazing with my dog. He’s a bit anxious and she has been incredibly patient with him and is building a strong bond with him. Hannah has been super communicative and has been great to work with all around!!”


“Michelle was the best rover experience we have had in a long time. She was punctual, proactive, and provided honest communication with how things were going with our two big dogs. One of our dogs is very nervous and she was beyond patient with him and successfully got him out for his walks. I appreciated that she showed up exactly when she said she would. We will absolutely use her again in the future.”

“Robert was amazing!! Great daily communication and even brought in a large UPS package off my porch when he came to walk Tucker. We are so thankful we found him and so is Tucker!”

“Louisa was wonderful! She had a wonderful easy going communication style, she was able to respect the instructions that Tenny needs for a successful walk, and she sent great photo and specifics in the updates! We will definitely have her again.”

“Anaya was wonderful with our two dogs. She was always on time and provided timely responses to questions and updates on our fur babies. We would love to have her take care of our dogs again!”

“Austin is fantastic! I love all of the pictures, updates, flexibility, and care he takes while walking Mazie! She always looks so happy and excited! Will recommend Austin to anyone and everyone!”

“Hillary did an amazing job walking my shy pup and quickly won her over! In addition to being amazing with my dog, Hillary did and excellent job communicating with me about how my dog did on their walks, tactics she used to help build up my dog's confidence, and Hillary even helped clean up a potted plant that my dog had knocked over one day. I would highly recommend Hillary to anyone looking for care for their pets!”

About: Animal loving CNA, here to care for your furry loved one. Animals have always been apart of my life in both big & small ways. Being able to care for other pets, is just an extension of me caring for my own. My goal is to make your pet(s) as comfortable, loved, and cared for as if you had never left. I pride myself in the small details & going above and beyond what is expected. ~ Experience with young puppies to senior dog, and diabetic dogs needing insulin. ~ Extensive experience with cats including specialized medical needs. ~ Comfortable giving oral, topical, or injectable medications. MY BACKGROUND: At an early age while growing up on five acres in the country, I was often taking care of a variety of animals, including our dogs and many barn cats. I was a bit of a cat Momma, often times assisting with extra care like bottle feeding or treating illnesses as they came. Eventually I started taking care of our neighbors animals when they were away. Throughout childhood I had several special cats that became my indoor pets & my first adopted dog at the age of 13. After high school I worked at a stable. My ‘Cat Whisper’ abilities came in handy while here- tending to the cats & ensuring the kittens grew up & had a chance to be healthy, loved barn cats. As a young adult, I cared for my two indoor cats & my Boxer puppy - a dream come true. ADDITIONALLY: I have almost 10 years of experience as a CNA and have completed 1 year of nursing school. You can feel confident knowing that your pet is in capable hands. I’m currently working from home & homeschool my daughter, allowing my weekdays to be flexible. I’m also home most weekends. I’m available for house sitting, drop-in care, walks, and extended care. FOR THOSE LOOKING TO PLAN AHEAD… I have my Spring/ Summer 2027 currently unavailable as I don’t have enough information yet to determine my exact availability. If you have an upcoming trip you are planing and in need of care, or looking for reoccurring care during these dates, please message me directly to get priority booking as my availability opens. My goal is to make your pet(s) as comfortable, loved, and cared for as if you had never left, and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I know that every family has a different way of caring for their pets. Therefore, I will work with you to find out how best to care for your animal by asking questions up front before I even step foot in your home. Communication is key. At the end of my visit, I will give you an overview of your pets time with me including sending pictures. If there’s anything else you’re looking for, just ask.

About: I'm an animal lover who has years of experience with dogs, cats, and rabbits! I educate myself on animal behavior and find that it really helps me be able to meet their needs. Not afraid to administer medication or go the extra mile for whatever a loved pet needs. I'm available every single day of the week - morning, midday, and evenings. I sometimes take an hour or so of classes in the evening which are extremely easy to work around, I'm very flexible and typically don't travel for holidays. I'm completely ready to adhere to any standards that clients have in their home. I am very communicative and will reach out if instructions need clarification.
About: My love for animals started as a child going to dog shows and pet sitting for friends. I love watching shows like Caesar Milan and PitBulls and Parolees. Over the years, I have owned multiple cats with varying personalities and temperaments, petsat, and walked all sizes of dogs from chihuahuas to Irish wolfhounds. Also, I have worked with aggressive or easily overexcited breeds. If your pet is like this, just let me know and I will do my best to care for them. I decided to become a professional on Rover because I am passionate about animals and enjoy every minute with them. It also provides me with the flexible hours I need to care for my young daughters. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! I am currently a full time mom, but have plenty of time to play with, walk, and care for your fur babies while my girls are in school. I am available after 8:30 am for drop ins or walks. For boarding I am able to keep overnight. I have a large, fenced yard for dogs to run, play, and do their business. I can keep pets separated upstairs and downstairs if needed. I am very respectful of other's personal property if you need me to care for your pets in your own home.

“Ashley is always so reliable!! When my husband travels and I am at a work all day it’s great knowing my dogs are still getting their exercise! My 18 month old border-jack really needs it!! My 13 year old border Collie just likes a little attention!”

About: I’ve worked/volunteered at the Humane Society for two years. I’ve watched friends dogs since I was 12 years old. Love to take dogs on walks, to the dog parks and just spend time with them. I have 2 dogs already at home so I can only watch your pets at your house. I currently work full time so pretty much work around my full time job. I’m more available in the afternoons, there are some days that i can do mornings. I treat them like my own with all the tender love and care they need. I have a fenced in backyard that the dogs love to play in.
“Paula was amazing! I know our little guy can get unsure meeting people, by his tail wags he was happy to see her! She was very understanding, accommodating, and showed lots of love to Harvey! She took care of him at our home and at her house. From the pictures he looked like he was in a resort getting sunshine! Highly recommend her she is super caring and nice! Thank you Paula!”

About: We are a family of four that wants to get a dog some day when our children are a bit older. We have two daughters aged 9 and 5. We love to do dog sitting so we can still enjoy a dog in our home. I am a high school teacher and my wife stays home 3 out of 5 days/week with our two young daughters. My wife grew up with Labradors and I grew up with Maltese and Terriers. We cannot wait to have our own dog again. Will your dog be the one to convince us of what type of dog we want for our family? We look forward to meeting you and treating your dog like they are part of our family! Because we do not currently have a dog and only take one dog at a time, your dog will be very well cared for and receive tons of attention and affection! **once in awhile, we may have two bookings that overlap slightly depending on pick-up/drop-off times, but if that happens we will communicate that with you! My wife is home Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays with our daughters. On Mondays and Tuesdays, we are gone from 8:30-4:00. If that is too long of a period for your dog to go without a potty break please let us know! I am a teacher at Memorial highschool (just 5 mins from our home) and can easily come home during my lunch break for a quick dog walk! We have a fenced in yard for your dog to explore. Otherwise, we will let your dog roam anywhere in the house! If needed, we have baby gates and are able to section off parts of our home.

About: I am 37 and have worked professionally with dogs for 10 years during my 20s. I began working in a boarding and daycare facility when I was 18. Since that time I have worked for other kennels as I have moved. I received my training certification in 2010 from Animal Behavior College and volunteered extensively at a shelter in Kansas City. I have volunteered with numerous rescue groups providing training and foster homes along with many boarding facilities. I love pet sitting and getting the opportunity to make a animals happy while their parents are away- all the rewards of being the fun aunt :) Experience with pets who have medications/diabetes/special needs. HOUSE SITTING: I work from home, with appointments throughout the day so your pets won't be left alone for long. I am flexible fitting into your pets routines, watering plants, and any other up-keeps that need done while you are away. A majority of the time I work from home while having occasional appointments out of the home. This gives me plenty of flexibility to ensure that your pet gets 1:1 time and gets outside when needed. I like to follow my clients routines so their pet can predict as much as possible. My experience has given me a little bit of the super power to predict the future, which leads to me to taking extra safety steps “just in case”
