“Super nice family and home with fenced yard. We needed someone on short notice due to a family emergency. Katie and Samuel offered to be flexible with our return date which we greatly appreciated. Juneau seemed to have done fine.”

“Lindsey was great with my dog! She made sure to update us with photos and activities throughout the days. Thank you Lindsey for showering my fur baby with love and lots of walks!💕”

“Cricket has been staying with Kristin, Bruce, Hartley, and Lauren for some time now, and we have nothing but the best things to say about his stays. He always looks over the back seat on the way home because I think he misses them already! My last trip, my flight was delayed on the way back, and even though they had their own plans, Kristin and Bruce were super flexible and accommodating with pick up. Cricket has another stay coming up and we can't wait.”

“Very friendly and dependable. Timely communication, and great pictures and updates during the stay. Confident that Louie got lots of attention, exercise, doggy socialization, and love.”

“Ryan and Martha and their family have been a saving grace for me! Willow loves going over there, and clearly feels right at home. They send photos throughout her stay, and are so gracious with their time and thoughtfulness.”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”

“So glad I found Cleda! Organized, friendly, responsive. But most importantly, Roux loves her. Leaving both my pets and traveling out of the country for 2 weeks was tough. But every morning I awoke to an email and pictures letting me know that all was going well. Highly recommend!”

“Michelle and her family were fantastic! Her kindness, responsiveness and regular updates put us at ease during our trip, as it was clear our two dogs were having a great time. Their fenced in backyard was a huge plus, as one of our dogs enjoys spending a lot of time outside. We also greatly appreciate their flexibility when our travel plans had to be adjusted. We highly recommend Michelle and plan to have her watch our dogs in the future!”

“Robert is a great sitter. Would highly recommend. We’ll always check to see if he’s free first. Watson came home happy, tired, and well cared for.”

“Olivia watched my cat, Tony, for 8 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care alongside her two cats. I received daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Tony was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. 10/10!”

“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!!”

“My two golden retrievers had such a great time! They came back home happy and tired after a fun weekend. Lee did a great job sending photo and video updates and making my babies feel right at home!”

“Becky and Judd have treated Neko so well and if he was there own! They have worked with us on short notice stays, and always keep me updated on how well he’s doing! Neko loves going over there to be watched by their family!”

“Mary and her family were absolutely wonderful sitters for Grizzy! They took great care of him during a cold snap, making sure he was warm and comfortable. Mary sent wonderful updates and absolutely adorable pictures, and I would recommend her to anyone!”

“We are so grateful to have found Stephanie to watch our two highly energetic golden girls! She gave them lots of play time, exercise, and snuggles on the couch. She was kind, patient, and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend and we would love to bring our dogs back to her 🥰”

“Our little pup Rena absolutely enjoyed her stay with Tessa! We were given the best pup-dates throughout the day and enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup having the best vacation with Tessa and Tennessee. Thank you for your care, attention, and love to Rena! Tessa was also super flexible with drop off after we had to deal with a medical emergency and I am so grateful for that!”

“Helen and Min are absolutely wonderful pet sitters. They took such good care of my Moxie the cat while we were away for 22 days. They sent pictures, videos, and updates throughout our trip which really gave us a peace of mind. They welcomed Moxie into there home just as though she was part of the family. I highly recommend Helen and Min to anyone who wants to have there bets to receive 5 star care for their pets.”

“Natalie was great! She made me feel comfortable leaving my cat and kept me updated on how she was doing. She sent lots of pictures and Ginger seemed happy and well cared for when I came home. She also handled some of Ginger's spicier behaviors super well.”

“My cat absolutely loves playing with Cleda. She visited my cat every day for a week and left detailed notes and took many photos each visit. I really appreciate her thorough updates and I would definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Austin was great! He came over and met the cats before he took the job and we discussed any concerns we have. He gave us pictures of the kitties every time he took care of the cats, played with our youngest kitty every time, and was very understanding when we got the dates of our trip wrong. He even took in the recycling container that we left out and a giant Chewy box (which we were not expecting!). Will definitely consider hiring Austin again in the future if needed! :)”

This was our first time hiring a pet sitter and she walked us through the process and took time to meet our precious fur baby prior to hiring her. Our cat is skittish and she was able to get her to come out without a lot of effort. We will definitely hire Jennifer again.”


“My dogs really like Allegra and she seems to be great with them too. She was great during our meet and greet and spent time to get to know the pups. Will hire again for sure!”

“Ali was so wonderful! We got married last weekend, and had the best time knowing she was checking in on our kitties. She took the best pictures of them ever, and they had fresh water and food. Litter boxes and even our high maintenance wet food w/ medication was handled. Can’t thank her enough ?”

“Laura was amazing with my cat Oliver!! She was so kind and thoughtful. She sent lots of photos and updates, which I really appreciated, and went above and beyond. Oliver was happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would absolutely book Laura again and highly recommend her!!”


“Isabel did an amazing job watching my cat Gio for the week. She was attentive & communicative. I really appreciated the regular photo updates as it gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well while I was away. She was also very responsive and easy to coordinate with from start to finish. I’d absolutely trust her to watch Gio again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. First time using Rover and was super happy with how it all went.”


“Hannah is the best cat sitter!! She helped us out last second cat sit need and could have appreciated it more. Her updates and photos are always great. She is really an excellent cat/house sitter.”

“It was our first time leaving our kitty for an extended period of time - Anna took excellent care of our girl! She eased my worries with frequent text and photos updates and was very patient getting to know our cat. We also ran into some technical issues (on my end) and Anna was very flexible! We are so grateful for her.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Parkwood Village
“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.”

“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!”

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.
“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.”

“Elena was my first Rover experience—she really exceeded my expectations! She sent status updates and pictures throughout my pup’s visit, and he really enjoyed playtime with the other dogs. I definitely would love to bring my dog back the next time I need someone to watch him. Thanks so much for making it great for us!”

“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.”

“Thank you for your patience with our pup! It was his first time spending a day with someone new, and we appreciated your updates and patience with him. Thank you for taking care of him all day!”

“Robert was flexible and communicative. I wasn’t worried about my dogs in his care at all, and they seemed to have had a great time based on how tired they were when they got home. We look forward to working with him again in the future.”

“Holly was very receptive to caring for our dog on short notice when we had to be in Madison for a family member’s hospitalization. The home, fenced in yard, companionship of their dog Mocha was wonderful for our little guy. I could tell he was exercised and loved while in her care.”

“Goose had so much fun! Helen and her mom were the best at making goose feel comfortable and sending lots of updates! I will definitely be rebooking.”


About: I am a previous dog owner and current cat mom. I grew up watching dog and cat training shows on TV and going to in person purebred dog and cat show events. I enjoy spending my time with furry friends. I'm a in-home caregiver to my mom so I have lots of time to take care of your pet. I have weekly events on Sundays and Wednesdays, but can easily work around those times. I have a long line for when your pet is outside and lots of patio seating to supervise and play with your pet the whole time. I also have a crate for indoor use.
About: I've had dogs ever since I was a little kid and would do anything for them. I've also worked with dogs for the past 2 years. I have a Rat Terrier of my own and will make sure to treat your dog like they're my own. I’m used to all kinds of dogs whether it be age, energy level, or condition as I’ve had a mix of all at my job and growing up! I'm a student with lots of breaks between my classes meaning I’m usually only gone for less than two hours and I have lots of free time on the weekends. Max I’ll be gone is four hours, but that rarely happens. My dog is very friendly and energetic, but also knows when a dog doesn’t want to play. She’s very silly and loves to sleep! I live near the lake and can take your dog out often as there’s a nice trail along the lake and campus is pedestrian friendly. I live in an apartment, so I’m looking to host dogs who are comfortable in a quieter environment. Since I share walls with neighbors, I’m best suited for dogs who aren’t big barkers. That being said, I love dogs with a personality! A little energy and playfulness is totally welcome, I just ask that barking is kept to a minimum. Dogs are allowed to free roam around the apartment whether I’m with them or gone. If your puppy has energy to burn but knows when to settle down, we’ll get along great! In your own home I will take on any type of dog with any energy level! I will make sure to care for your dog while you are away just as you care for them while you’re in your house. A dogs safety and their comfort are a top priority for me! I also have a fenced in patio with dog grass if your pup needs a quick potty break!

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Parkwood Village

“I’m so thankful to have Allegra as a dog walker- she is a rock star! I feel so safe with her care with the dogs, and she always has great feedback after every walk.”


“Jennifer is great! We'd love for her to walk our dog again (in fact we already rebooked). We needed help once a week with our 8mo puppy. Jennifer always picks him up on schedule and returns him happy and well exercised! Our dog loves everyone but my husband is convinced the pup loves Jennifer extra.”

“Alisyn did a great job with Willis! Her feedback was helpful and it was nice to know he was being well taken care of. Alisyn worked with us on everything we needed. Highly recommend! We will be continuing to use her services.”

“Jennifer was great with my big, goofy mastiff-pitty mix! And Jupiter/JuJu loved his walk and sniff time with her…he came back ready for a nap! Glad to have Jennifer on board as part of Jupiter’s team!”

“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!”


“Michelle is fantastic. I have a service dog who helps me with daily tasks. I was looking for a dog walker just for the winter months when it's hard to get around in my wheelchair. Michelle put me at ease right from the start by asking all the right questions about the appropriate commands to use before the first walk. The best part is that my dog always returns home fulfilled, tired and content. I'm so impressed that Rover offers experienced walkers, even for someone that has a specially trained dog like myself :)”


About: I’m very attentive and adaptable, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need a little extra patience. I follow routines closely and always focus on creating a calm, positive experience. care fits seamlessly into my routine. I’m not working a full-time job, so I have the flexibility to prioritize walks, drop-ins, and quality time with each dog. I love staying active, and spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy every day. I’m flexible and attentive, and I always follow your rules and routines. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in your home.

“Victor always does a great job with my little Buddy. Sometimes I am nervous about how my dog might react around a new person, but Victor has been amazing and Buddy loves when he visits. Definitely recommend!”
About: Our kids LOVE dogs, they pretty much live for them. We can't have our own right now, so we want to love on yours while you're away! We've owned our own dogs, and both of the adults grew up taking care of and loving dogs. We're happy to help reinforce any training that you're doing with your pup! We work during the week, but we can spend the weekend giving full-time care to your dog! We are open to watching your pup during the week, but they would be home alone from about 9am-4:30 pm. Just send me a message if you need longer care than the weekend and we can discuss details! We have a fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run and play fetch. We can offer plenty of outside time and bathroom breaks, we're happy to keep your pet on their typical schedule!
“Michelle is great!! My dog is very shy and slow to warm up to people so I was worried about finding someone to walk him while we are at work but Michelle has been awesome!”

About: I have experience working at Paw Pals taking care of cats and dogs. I have also raised and cared for hamsters, horses, birds and bunnys. I'm currently working part-time to only care for animals so I have plenty of time for your animals! Let me know when you need me and I will be there! They will get the time they need. ❤️ Your pet will have the whole downstairs to themselves and lots of play space. I have two friendly cats that are willing to be friends with your pets but they will be upstairs. There are multiple grassy areas to run around in around my condo and trails to walk your pet that will allow them to play in. Treats treats treats❣️

About: I've had cats, dogs, fish, and rodents, and would love to share my time with even more beloved pets! I worked at a vet clinic for awhile, so safety will be my number one priority. I currently volunteer with a local cat rescue. I even worked with a wildlife rehabilitation center a few years ago, so no animal would be outside my comfort zone, although I have little experience with reptiles. I work full time during the week, but will have about 45 minutes to devote to your furry friend around midday! I am flexible before and after my job, and am often available during weekend days and holidays. I will not offer boarding services, however, I am happy to schedule my time around your fur baby to ensure that they get the love and care they deserve! I am comfortable caring for (feeding, walking, brushing, etc.) and medicating (with instruction) dogs and cats, if necessary!
“Joseph is great with our AmStaff. The basics of timely and great communication definitely met. But then way above and beyond in his care and exercise of a high energy 5 year old Staffie. Koda is is noticeably and positively impacted by the days Joseph visits. Strongly recommend!!!”

About: I’ve take care of dogs for over 10+yrs. When family are out of town they always call me. I like to take dogs on long walks, feed them and take them to the dog parks. My full time job is ending with in the next 2weeks so I am free for the whole summer. When the summer is over I’ll only be available after 2:30pm I will be watching the dogs at the clients home or watching the dogs out on the community. This will also depend on the rules of the clients home
About: I currently have two dogs and a cat. I have enjoyed pet ownership throughout my life, and can't imagine life without them! They have a special place in my heart. I cannot wait to meet your furbabies! I currently work from home most days, and take frequent breaks to walk the pups and let them in and out of the backyard for potty breaks. I have a fenced in backyard and two dogs of my own to keep yours entertained. They will have a blast! We will just want to do a meet and greet in advance to make sure everyone gets along. I have a large crate we can use if needed.
About: I’m a passionate dog lover who believes pets are family. As a dog owner for over four years, I understand the care, attention, and love our furry friends need every day. Whether you need help with walks or companionship for your pet, I’m committed to providing reliable and caring support.

While I am looking for a new full time job, I have a lot of availability for anyone needing some help. Would be open to daily walks or as needed. I would care for any pet like they are my own! I am extremely protective of my dog and would only want the best for her and I would offer the same level of care for your pet, too!
“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!”

About: Hello my name is Stephany Dos Santos and I have both baby sat and walked dogs for as long as I can remember. I have taken care of a wide range of dogs including Yorkshire, Gold Retriever, Mini Australian Shepherd, Poodle, Chihuahua , and etc. What you would love about me is that with my different experiences I could handle any dog because I treat them equally and also as if they were people. I am available any time of any day and to walk or sit your dog! I am a very funny and energetic individual which makes it easier for me to get along with dogs and run around with them. I would really love to be there when you need me most! Thank you for reading my profile and I hope to meet you! I currently work in a lab, and my schedule is pretty flexible than most other individuals. I am typically at work from between 2 to 4 hours a day. I have the flexibility to leave work whenever I need to and then if I needed to come back I could. Therefore if I am staying over And I see myself being at work for more than six hours a day, then I would just split my day and half and go home and walk or feed whichever animal I’m working with, then head back to work. I currently live in an apartment complex. It does allow animals. There is a large park by my complex, which, if there were a dog with me, I would take them there. In my apartment itself I have a lot of toys and it is a safe environment
