“This was the 2nd time Katie and Samuel’s family took care of Jarvis while we were away. We were very excited when they were available for these dates because Jarvis had a great time with them the first time. They did such an amazing job with him again and it really seemed like Jarvis felt right a home. They always send frequent updates and pictures which is really appreciated :)”

“Stephanie was an amazing sitter. She messaged me daily with pictures too. Walks, playtime and belly rubs were a daily occurrence with Mack. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come back home. 😊”

“Lindsey did a fantastic job of taking care of Coco. During my trip, I had travel delays and Lindsey was more than accommodating to help with last minute changes. She gave me frequent updates on Coco and I felt very at ease knowing that my fur baby was in very good hands. Would highly recommend!”

“My pup Cricket loves Kristin, Bruce, Hartley, and Lauren SO MUCH. He has quite a lot of energy and every time he gets to stay with them, he comes home tired and content (and even pouted the whole way home in the car this time). In addition to being fantastic Rovers, they're just great human beings and we're so grateful to have found them and cannot recommend more. Thank you, as always, for everything!!”

“Michelle was amazing! She was super responsive and the boys seemed like they had a great time. She kept us updated every day with messages and pictures. We would definitely go back :)”

“Edith is a fantastic! My dog Maxx absolutely loves spending time with her. She keeps me well informed with regular updates and photos, so I never worry when I’m away. Edith is also very flexible with my schedule and has been very accommodating. I feel completely comfortable leaving Maxx in her care. Being new to Madison, we were lucky to have found her.”


“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!”

“They were so great with Lacey! They shared pictures multiple times a day and gave little updates with each! I appreciated it so much as I always like to know my pup is doing while I'm gone! I will definitely be booking with them again the next time I need a rover!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Cleda was amazing with our 8 year old little Datsun mix. she sent me pictures with updates about Lucy. She was very flexible with time pick up and drop off times. I am definitely going to use Cleda again as well as recommend her to others. Oh, I forgot to add she also gave me a little report card on how she did with eating, using the bathroom, getting along with others and so on when I picked her up. That was a great bonus.”

“Ronalisa did wonderfully! Floyd is high energy and can be pushy- so at first I was worried as we had never boarded through Rover before. But it was quickly apparent than Rona was confident and capable even with young and crazy dogs like Floyd. She always got back to me quickly and sent the cutest videos of them playing fetch, swimming, and hiking around. Her dogs are also great too! They helped Floyd play appropriately but still have fun. I would love to board with Rona again”


“My pup, Toby, had an awesome time staying with Sarah and her pup!!! She took him out for walks multiple times a day, plus a quick run, which is perfect for my high energy puppy. She kept me updated through out the weekend with texts and pictures. Sarah, you were amazing! Thank you again for taking care of the Tobe-master!”
“Robert is so responsive and great about communicating everything surrounding the visit. Our golden retriever had a wonderful time playing with the other dog that was boarded!”

“Mary took our dog for our wedding weekend and she was great! Pugsy had a great time with her dog, going on a walk, and going to the dog park! She sent pictures and we did not worry about Pugsy at all! We will definitely book with Mary in the future!”

“Neko came home exhausted so he must have had a wonderful time! Judd and Becky were so kind and worked well with us on a last minute request and we will absolutely use them again!”


“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.”

“Gina is great! We did a meet and greet first so her and my dogs could get acquainted, and to make sure it would be safe for all. She sent me pics of my boys while I was away and I really appreciated that! She treated my boys like her own fur babies! I highly recommend Gina! 5 stars for sure!”
“Karen is an amazing sitter. She always send pictures and update me with all the activities she and her daughter were doing with the dogs. She followed all my requests about how she can take care of my dogs and I would recommend her for anyone who’s looking for a sitter.”

“Natalie was incredible! Seems like my cats were very well taken care of and she was very responsive and kind. Always took the time to write out a nice note about how they were doing and take some nice pictures. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“Jennifer was such an amazing sitter for my furry babies. She took her time to ask questions and understand well how to care for them. The updates and pictures always were on point and left me feeling that my babies were in very caring and capable hands. Next time I will look for someone to look after my babies I will go for Jennifer.”


“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!”


“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.”

“Alliyah watched our 15 y/o dog for 12 days while we were on spring break. She was easy to schedule with and communicative. Georgie seemed to really enjoy her visits and we recommend her!”


“Mandi is the best! She has done drop in visits with our two senior kitties several times now and she takes such great care of them. She is so easy to work with, a phenomenal communicator, and was so flexible when we asked if she could extend her visits to give our cats extra company after needs changed. Highly recommend Mandi!”


“Michelle took great care of my senior cat while I was away on a family trip. I appreciated the detailed updates and sweet pictures she sent for every visit. Will definitely be rebooking with her!”


“Evee took excellent care of our kitties (and fish)! She sent daily communication and texted if she had any questions. We will definitely be asking her to pet sit for us again!”

“Ryan was great. He stopped by once a day to check on my cat, feed him, and clean the litterbox. And we received a picture of my cat every day. Ryan jumped in at the last-minute request, and we greatly appreciated his timeliness and availability. Thank you, Ryan!”

“Jesse took great care of our two cats. We felt assured that she is caring for them in a loving way and would make sure they don't miss our company. She communicates well and upon returning we found our kitties doing very well and everything in our house was in good order. When traveling leaving the cats behind is always challenging but Jesse gave us peace of mind. We hope to have her back again.”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”

About: I work from home and have flexible hours. My dog loves to play with other dogs and would love to have a friend on walks or to play in our fenced-in yard! Also available to go on solo walks if needed. Can also have behaved dogs stay over during day or night; they will get plenty of love from our dog and our two daughters. Can take the dog for walks, to dog parks, or just hang out in our back yard. I work from home. I can take dogs for walks or dog parks most times during the week, as my meetings can be handled from my phone. If dogs are friendly with our dog, the dog can come play at our house in our fenced in back yard. Weekend mornings are usually free for walks, and depending on kid activities can fit in walks and feedings during the afternoon/evening. I have a fenced in yard and a dog (Australian Shepard) that gets along with almost every dog he’s met. Have many dog toys for play. Neighborhood for walks is quiet and has many friendly dogs. At client’s home, will provide feedings, walks, and/or in-home playtime.
About: I regularly walk and check in on a dog four times a week and have pet sat for several families. I’ve also helped care for my families dog over the years. I’m reliable, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I currently have a pretty high availability to care for pets — through boarding, quick walks, drop in visits, etc! I love early morning walks and exploring nature. I provide a calm, safe environment and always follow care instructions closely. Though I don’t have a fenced yard, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats — supervising pets carefully to ensure their safety and comfort at all times.
“Stephanie was great with my sometimes challenging Australian cattle dogs. She communicated well, was flexible in terms of exact timing, and really seem to enjoy my pups, and they really like her. Highly recommended.”


“Stina is extremely pleasant. She replied to my request quickly and was so easy to work with. She came for a meet and greet because my dog can be reactive at times. My dog took to her right away. It was obvious Stina had experience with animals. The next day she took her on a walk and it went great! We will definitely be using her services in the future and would highly recommend her.”

“Austin did a great job walking Carmello. He responded to a last minute booking and I couldn’t have been more happy with his services. Have already booked him again and hopefully more in the future.”


“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: We have 3 cats and a mini Dachshund, all rescues. Reliable, respectful, dependable. All-around animal-person, committed to keeping animals safe and happy - I strongly believe that people have a responsibility, duty to care for and love all animals; it’s a privilege to have a relationship with them, and we should foster and nurture that. Interested in teaching basic dog commands. Will learn to administer shots if needed. Sensitive to changes in behavior that could signal unhappiness, illness. In the future, hope to create a doggy sanctuary, so I can have many dogs of my own to love and care for every day. I just love dogs & cats & all animals! Value open and clear communication with owners to better care for their pets and to build healthy relationships between us all. My availability has some flexibility, so contact me to discuss! Recently retired and looking forward to devoting time and energy doing things I love, including caring for and building bonds with furry friends. Prefer scheduling ahead of time but will do my best to accommodate same-day requests. All care will be provided according to your instructions. For daycare service provided at my home, I would take dogs out on leash at regular intervals because my yard is un-fenced. Kitties and doggies are loved and treated with kindness and respect.
“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’ve grown up surrounded by animals and can’t imagine life without them! Over the years, my family had six dogs and two cats, so I’m very familiar with different breeds, personalities, and care routines. From daily walks and playtime to administering medications and giving lots of love, I’ve done it all. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident in creating a safe, calm, and fun environment for them! Pet care is something I truly enjoy and make time for in my daily routine. I’m used to early morning walks, feeding schedules, and making sure pets get the attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s quick potty breaks, play sessions, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to build my day around making sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Flexible scheduling also allows me to adapt to each pet’s unique needs and energy level. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting a client’s, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. In my home, I create a calm and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play and relax, and I make sure they get lots of attention and regular exercise. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual schedule, feeding times, walks, play, and any special instructions, to help them feel at ease while you're away. I always keep communication open with pet parents so you feel confident and updated while I’m caring for your furry friend.

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”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and fish since childhood. I’ve cared for toy breeds to extra large dogs (tea cups yorkies to mastiffs!), individual cats to families with 5+ feline family members. I have experience with puppy obedience (consistent/incremental/positive reinforcement), senior care, and varying levels of energy. I’ve worked with shy pets and incredibly social pets. Teach me about your pet and I will provide as consistent of care as possible while you’re away. I have a predictable schedule in my personal life and I am able to plan and design a pet care schedule with your routines in mind. I will make every effort to ensure clear, manageable expectations are communicated in advance so all parties are satisfied. I will follow routines and practices as close to the established routines to which your pet has grown accustomed. I understand this can vary greatly by family and appreciate clear communication.
