“David was really good with the dogs. Our dogs quickly ‘adopted’ their new Humans and appeared quite happy throughout their visit. David has a nice palace for the dogs to run and play. We will not hesitate to board our dogs with David in the future.”

“Paula took great care of Bear and met all the needs for him. She made sure Bear took walks everyday and occasionally updated me. It looked like Bear had a pleasant time there.”

“Paige S. was an excellent babysitter for my Babycat. My Babycat is all that I have in this world and I would trust Paige S. with my Babycat anytime. After communicating and speaking to Paige on the phone, I realized that Paige was a true animal lover like myself. It was then I booked with her to board my Babycat while I had to go to the hospital for 2 nights. During my stay at the hospital, Paige answered text and even sent pictures of my Babycat to reassure me. She also helped load and unload Babycat in her carrier, as I am dealing with a handicap.This is how Paige takes excellent care of animals and their humans ! Thank you to Rover for having respectable, professional and loving caregivers like Paige S.! Thank you very much to Paige S. for all your care and extra help with my Babycat! Raul "Dan" Ornelas”

“Val was such an amazing host! He treated our dog, Bella, like one of the family. I even got a super cute picture of Bella, and she looked so happy! We can't wait to book with Val again!”

“Moka was very happy to see Alissa and did not seem sad to go with her. (This was her 1st time). There was good communication with Alissa. When we picked up Moka, you can tell she didn't miss mom that much. 😒 lol It's great to know that we have someone in the area that we can trust her with.”

“Courtney did a great job with Louie. It was such a pleasure to come back from a trip and have our pup alert, rested and well taken care of. Louie was accepted into the "Dog Pack" and we will for sure be asking Courtney to take care of our boy again in the future. Thank you Courtney.”

“Edith took wonderful care of my little guy Gatsby and sent lots of updates which was so reassuring! He clearly got lots of play time but she also made sure he had a spot to go if he needed a break. Edith clearly knows dogs and pack tendencies and I knew Gatsby was in good hands with her two aussies. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Gatsby in her wonderful care again. Thanks Edith!”

“Korie took wonderful care of Dizzy! Her communication and updates were clear and she was flexible with pickup and drop off times. Would absolutely love for Dizzy to stay with Korie and Ozzy again.”

“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 🥰”

“Ellen did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She provided updates and pictures throughout the stay, and was extremely prompt and responsive. Our dog had a blast playing with her dogs, and enjoyed her large fenced in yard—I think it was hard to leave his new friends to come home!”

“Bethany was amazing! She watched my little Archie for a long weekend and made our getaway more enjoyable by not having to worry about our fur baby! Will definitely be using her again!”

“Clementine had a wonderful time staying with Amber! She enjoyed many walks in the Baraboo area and enjoyed getting to stay with Cypress! Would love to have Amber watch Clementine again!”
“Amber was amazing! Her and her family helped take great care of my 3 month old pup for a few days while we were in the process of moving. She was super accommodating and helpful, taking him in just hours after us contacting her very last minute while stressed trying to figure out what to do with him. Taking in his “puppy shenanigans” and all like he was one of her own. Amber made sure to keep me updated about how his was doing helping to ease my mind of having him away from home for the first time. Sending me pictures/videos and messages about how his day was going. She also took the time to make sure that my pup was comfortable and entertained. Taking him on walks and being able to run around and play in the yard. Letting him go at his own pace and doing what made him feel safe when he didn’t like the rain or was was scared by her dog at first (he wasn’t the biggest one around anymore and couldn’t terrorize/annoy every living thing like he normally likes to do). She even went the extra mile to wash his bed after an accident over night and have him and all of his stuff packed up nicely and ready to go for me when I got there. My little boy loved playing with her and her family. And having the other dogs around for him to interact with was a bonus. When I tell you he was so excited when he first met them that I didn’t even get a second look over the shoulder or a goodbye before he took off to play with one of the kids ? (I’m still emotionally processing his betrayal ?). I could not recommend Amber enough! Your pet will be greatly taken care of (Not to mention worn out….he’s been napping since the moment we put him in the car) and all of your worries will fade the moment you get there.”

“Meghan and her loving family were so sweet, gentle, and loving to our dog Nolo. He is a sweet dog but also quite human-like in his peculiarities. They welcomed him in and he immediately knew he was staying with them. He looked back with hesitation as I left him in the arms of 6 petting hands. He watched TV with the family and laid under the dinging table and on the couch!! He naturally received a beauty treatment and hair brushing with ease. I could see he felt right at home. Meghan’s family was fantastic and they were all natural caretakers. Nolo will happily go back in the future. Thanks Meghan!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Luz. She's incredibly reliable, and her clean and secure home gave us total confidence. Our dog, Zeke, spent two nights with her and came home happy and relaxed, which is a huge difference from our past boarding experiences. We also loved the regular photo updates, which really kept my wife's mind at ease. It's clear that Luz has a special connection with dogs. We'll absolutely be booking with her again.”

“Our 2 dogs stayed at Sarah's for about a week earlier this month. The stay was great! We got daily updates, including photos and videos. They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”


“We were swayed to contact Erika for our dog caregiver by her glowing reviews on Rover. Throughout our communications with Erika through Rover prior to our vacation, and upon meeting her when we dropped our dogs off with her, she was warm, kind, and a very professional young lady. We were impressed by her and the wonderful habitat that our pups would call home for the next two weeks. Our dogs need exercise, and she excelled in that. One of our dogs even lost weight. We will return to Erika for future needs, and rest easy that our dogs are in the best hands!”


“Jaime is always a pleasure to work with. Her house is clean and tidy, and her 2 dogs are so friendly and playful with our dog. She also has good communication throughout our dog’s visit, and I know he’s in good hands.”

“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our kitties! Mckenna was wonderful throughout the whole process - it was just easy. Great communication leading up to our vacation and during. We’ve got two cats: an older one, who is a bit more shy, and a younger one, who is rambunctious and pretty friendly with strangers. Mckenna was wonderful with both. She took the time with our older one to help coax her out of her shell, and she gave our littlest one lots of play time and snuggles. She gave great, detailed report cards that included pictures each day she came over. I’d definitely book with her again!”

“Ashley was amazing once again! I’ve used her in the past and she is so great. She has such a big heart and truly cares for the animals she is pet setting. She is always professional, kind, very communicative during her visits and flexible. I will always go back to her to continue to use her services. I can feel relaxed and at ease when I know she is looking after my pet, which makes my vacations so much more enjoyable knowing I can trust and rely on her! Thank you for all you do Ashley!”


“Hailey was amazing with my two cats! From the photos she shared, I could tell that they were completely happy and comfortable with her. She sent detailed reports and lots of photos, which gave me peace of mind that the kitties were doing well while I was away. Thank you, Hailey!”

“Samantha was wonderful! She was great with communication and left me feeling totally confident leaving my cat in her care. Would recommend and rebook with her again in a heartbeat!”


About: Hello and thank you for checking out my profile! Your family member will see me as one of their own, I am patient and allow them to get used to a new face. Active, adventurous and out going are a lot of traits I hold and can help your dog exert. A well exercised mind, calls for a calm well trained dog! I will come in and check up otherwise if requested I can stay at the home and keep them company! I am flexible and willing to work with your specific requirements as our dogs are our family! Please consider me when welcoming a new face into the family, I would be happy to work with your schedule. Thank you very much and have a wonderful day! Emily Flasch
“Rebecca helped us with doing daily visits with our cat while we were out of the country for a month. We appreciated the photo/ video updates and her experience gave us comfort with knowing that our cat would be fine. She also went above and beyond by helping with miscellaneous items like watering our plants which was a big plus. She will definitely be our top choice in the future!”

“Angie did such an amazing job with our two kitties while we were away on our trip. She did a few drop in visits for us and followed all of our instructions perfectly. She even stopped by before our trip to do a meet and greet with us and the kitties. It made us feel so relieved knowing that they were safe and in good hands while we were away. She also sent us the cutest photos of them! I would highly recommend Angie if you are looking for someone to watch your pet. She is very trustworthy and caring. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”

About: I have had dogs since I was to young to remember! My passion has always been making dogs happy! Through having completely different kinds of dogs myself and helping with family and friends I have gotten experience with all type of animals! I am currently only working part time and looking to stay busy walking pups! I live a very active lifestyle and bringing the dogs along is always my favorite. I currently have my own pets whom are extremely social and friendly! I have a big yard any dog would love to run and play in!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and caring for them has always been a big part of my daily routine. I currently have three dogs and five cats, so I’m very comfortable handling multiple pets with different personalities and needs. Through my own pets, I have experience with feeding schedules, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic care, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable. I’m used to high-energy pets as well as shy or more independent ones. Because I care for several animals at home, I understand how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet. I will treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and care that I give my own

About: I am reliable, responsible. I am on time. I have had pets all my life. I am very patient. I love animals. I don't drive. Though I have reliable transportation. I am a kind person. I love dogs and cats. I have watched my dad's three dogs before. I am polite. I will keep your pets happy and safe. I have older cats. I have a heart of gold. I am shy until you get to know me but not with animals. I am dependable. I love playing frisbee with dogs. I love playing with cats. I don't mind cleaning up after pets. I will feed them. I will cuddle with them. I will be their for them. I used to have a dog named champion.
About: I've always been a huge dog lover, tried to take in every stray as a kid, I grew up around dogs like basset hounds, Labradors, poodles and beagles. I've dog sat for boxers who think they're lap dogs, I've sat for younger pups, middle aged dogs, senior dogs, small dogs and big dogs! I go on frequent walks, play tug a war, play fetch, snuggles and affection. Give dogs medication if they need it, whatever makes the dogs happy! I'm very fond of cats as well I love all the different cat personalities and just being able to have some calm moments and snuggle with them. I'm a wife, mom and accountant by day but Thursday-Sunday I have more flexibility to soak up extra pet snuggles. Watching other people's precious pups/cats allows me more animal loving time. I treat all pets just like I would my own pup or kitty cat lots of snuggles, a few treats, safe walks making sure harnesses or leashes are properly worn and make sure they are always in a safe environment.

About: I have taken care of cats since I was 9 or 10. My first cat had kittens, and I kept them all. I have watched my neighbor's cats while she was away, ensuring the litter box was clean, providing them with food and water, and playing with their toys or just cuddling with them depending on their mood. I can also administer medications, such as pills, if needed.
About: I have been an animal lover ever since I can remember! I worked at Sondel Family Vet & absolutely loved it! I had to unfortunately leave due to having my first child. I always enjoyed spending my days interacting with owners and their pets to make sure they were provided with the best care (While also giving them extra love.) I have also had many pets throughout my life; including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs & bearded dragons. I even recently fostered my first dog who got adopted a few weeks after I took her in! I have worked on farms with cattle & have also taken many equine classes at UW-Madison. So yes, I have quite an extensive resume working with animals! Our evenings & weekends are usually always open. I am a student on break until January 20th. I also work in the evening, but am willing to schedule around this time! Nothing is too much of an ask for your babies! I will always follow directions attentively while also treating them like my own. I also have a 2 year old which will end up needing to tag along with me sometimes. So we know to have boundaries when it comes to her. I am aware of how to safely introduce them as long as you are comfortable having your pup around her.
About: I've always had dogs growing up. I love to be outside and active, so having a pet makes it that much more enjoyable. I have a 1 year old puppy who loves to play with others in our fenced in yard. I'm currently working Mondays, so I have more time available to spend with your pup. My family also is home full time to always be here to help. I have a fenced in yard and a dog friendly puppy to play with while they are here. Lots of freedom to run and play.

“Hi Elizabeth, I just wanted to say thank you for taking such great care of Fox! I really appreciated the updates while I was away. It’s clear you gave her lots of attention and care, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable with you. I’d absolutely trust you again and would happily recommend you to others. Thanks again!”
“Edith is your dream sitter. She posts daily photos and updates of your pet. She obviously loves what she does. She is a lovely soul and my Mimi, who can be shy, had her tail up in the photos which made me feel reassured that she was in a safe, loving environment.”

“Having our baby stay with David went amazing like always! We so appreciate how kind he is and how caring he is with our little girl. I've said it before, and I meant it, no one will ever watch our baby but David! Thank you!!”

“It was a last minute scramble to find anybody to watch the dogs, Amber reached out through the app she worked with us and even though she had another dog she was watching she took on our 2 little ladies and took very good care of them. I would certainly recommend her to anyone who has fur babies. Dogs well cared for and she is very easy to work with. 🐶❤️😊”

“Henry has no anxiety when I drop him off and he is always calm and content when I pick him up. Courtney obviously cares well for the dogs trusted to her. I appreciate her flexibility in the times I drop off and pick up.”

About: I genuine care and give attention to every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies who are still learning routines, including basic training and potty schedules, and I’m also gentle and mindful with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra comfort. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I currently work only 2 days out of the week, but my schedule is very flexible, and can switch days if need be! Will accommodate I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable and follow the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention so pets feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and make sure pets stay on their normal schedule. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and any special instructions from the owner to make sure they feel happy and cared for.
“Val (Sarge) has been great for our Bernedoodle, with a few overnight stays and a daycare stay over the last couple months. He's seen her grow from about 20 pounds to 50 pounds and has treated her very well. We also appreciate the training advice! We would recommend Val and his wife to anyone looking for a trusting spot to drop their pup.”
“Korie took great care of my dog Wolfie. Her response was fast to my request for daycare and Korie’s dog Ozzy played well with Wolfie. They even went on three walks too! Wolfie was a very relaxed pup when I picked him up. Thanks Korie!”

“Our dog Birdie enjoyed staying the morning and afternoon with Mallory and three labs. Mallory was very flexible and was great with the communication. I would definitely recommend her home.”

“Sue and Molly took wonderful care of my dog, Bentley. I could tell he loved them too! They sent lots of photos and were willing to share updates any time. He was exhausted by the end of each day. I appreciate their flexibility as well.”

“Another great visit for Wesley. He absolutely loves going to Erin’s house. Got there and he ran right up to the door. He gets tons of love and has a playmate whom he met through Rover named Willow. Can’t say enough about Erin and her family. They are beyond wonderful.”

About: I'm currently in a pet-free home with my kiddos and have lived with dogs for much of my adult life. I'm a massage therapist and love giving pups a little TLC with energy therapy and light massage. They love it! The dog you see in my thumbnail photo is KC. She was a rescue dog who was with us for six years and needed lots of training, support and care. Please note I take 3 walking clients per day but only 1 boarder at a time. I teach at a technical college and am a personal trainer, working part-time from home and part-time out of the home. I'm often home for long hours during the day. My three kids are in public school, so dogs may have 1 to 4 dog-lovers in the home after 4pm. I offer long walks on sidewalks or trails if preferred, treats, water, lots of play and unlimited petting! I offer care in my home and dog walking. Pets are allowed on my furniture if that's what they're used to. Looking forward to meeting your pup!
“Our pup had so much fun with Alyssa and her dogs! We were nervous using Rover for the first time but Alyssa was communicative and responsive with us throughout the entire process! Ada can’t wait for her next visit :)”

About: Hi my name is Yee Lam but everyone calls me Suki. I grew up with dogs and am a dog lover. I had a beloved toy poodle named Seven for 15 years, who was truly the best dog and a cherished member of our family. I’m a full-time mom, and when my son (9) and daughter (7) are in school, I have plenty of free time to care for pets—playing with them, feeding them, and giving them all the attention they need. My kids love dogs too, and I think this is a wonderful way for them to learn the joys and responsibilities of having a puppy. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 9 a.m. We have a spacious yard for safe outdoor play, and our neighborhood is calm, family-friendly, and right next to a school, with no major roads nearby, so you can feel at ease knowing your dog will be safe on our walks.
About: Hello I have been taking care of all sorts of pets since I was very young! I have experience with potty training, crate training, walking, and lots of play time. I also can give any puppers bath if need be. I also have experience with cats and many other small animals. I am free all week as I stay home with my 4 kiddos. I have 2 young kids that are 2 and 3 years old and my other 2 are 9 and 12. I always make sure that my pets and anyone else's pets are fed at a certain time, made sure they get their walks and exercise, but also make sure they get their cuddle time as well. I also make sure that they have water on hand at all times.
“Emily’s care was absolutely amazing! Her communication is spectacular and she sends many updates. Under her care, I could tell she treated our pup just like one of her own. We will definitely be back!!”

“April was so helpful in providing day care for our collie, Cassie, while we were in town for vacation. She was flexible and willing to work around our schedule. We were able to take our kids to a water park, and Cassie had a fun play date and trip to the dog park. All of us came home exhausted and happy, ready for the next leg of our journey. Thanks April!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs as long as I can remember. I have also been pet-sitting for about 3 years and I work in boarding and daycare at Lodi Veterinary Care.

I work a flexible schedule: available to check on cats and dogs throughout the day, board pets in my home, or stay with your pet as needed. My home has a spacious backyard with a park very nearby. Dogs are kept on a leash, but provided with plenty of outdoor time and walks to the riverwalk. I have an older cat who is friendly with all dogs.
About: I have a genuine love for animals. I proudly volunteer at the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin, where I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. That extra experience means I bring not just walks but patience, training awareness, and heart to every visit. Your pet isn’t just on my schedule, they’re part of my pack. 🐾 I work part-time and offer dog walking and drop-in visits for any type of animal during my off hours during the week. Weekends are usually pretty open! Safety, trust, and comfort are at the heart of everything I do. I care for my own pets in a calm, loving environment and treat every animal in my care as if they were part of my family. You can trust that your pets will be safe, respected, and genuinely loved. Their well-being always comes first. 🐾

“Lexi is very punctual and easy to work with. She takes great care of our pup and went above and beyond with extra requests today to get him some water and put him in his crate when they got back from their walk. Thank you, Lexi!”

I currently care for three dogs and five cats at home, so feeding, walks, playtime, and general care are things I do every day. Because of that, adding pet visits or walks into my schedule feels very natural for me. I’m used to managing different feeding schedules, making sure pets get exercise and attention, and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I always try to keep their routine as close as possible to what they are used to. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully for feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any other specific needs their pet may have. During visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed properly, get exercise or playtime, and receive plenty of attention so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also keep their space clean, such as scooping litter boxes or cleaning up after dogs during walks. Since I care for several pets at home myself, I understand how important it is to be patient and attentive with animals of different personalities. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, cared for, and relaxed until their owner returns.

“Rita is amazing!! She has a true love for animals and you can tell that she enjoys being with them! My Cali (English springer spaniel) can be stubborn and playful. Rita took the time to let Cali warm up and come to her and she was patient when Cali wanted to play "tag" instead of going on a walk. I've only ever trusted my sister to take care of Cali. I'm so grateful and happy that I found Rita and can add her to my list of trusted people! Thank you for everything!!”

About: I have a big heart for all animals. You can count on your dog/cat provided with genuine care and attention. Since starting Rover, I have come in contact with all types of furry friends, all of them being great experiences. Whether your fur baby likes long walks, quick runs, or is a couch potato, I will fit to all of the needs and wants. I would love nothing more than to be able to help another during a busy week/weekend, or just a busy life. When it comes to availability, I work very well on a schedule - as well as being able to have flexibility. I am off every weekend and Monday, with lots of random days off here and there. I can also make time before or after work. I can promise your fur babies will be treated with more than enough attention, love and respect. I am a part time worker in Portage, Wi. I work (typically) Tuesday - Friday but take quite a bit of work off, when given the opportunity, to spend time at home with my toddler. We are in the works of getting a fence around our yard and hope to have once come fall of 2025. My pets are my children. They are spoiled and loved deeply. We have a long yard leash that our puppy uses as well as constant supervision when outdoors.
About: I've taken care of dogs and all sorts of pets while growing up on a farm. I've also been both an overnight house sitter and dog groomer for a professional dog breeder. I do not currently have dogs with me since I’m a student but I have plenty of long breaks throughout the day as well as non-eventful nights which gives me plenty of time for pet care. Back home, I would do my farm chores and care for my animals twice a day on average but I also like to spend some extra time out there most days. I always like being aware of rules and boundaries, especially when I’m in someone else’s space and would 100% respect the home, including the pets. I also think it’s important to clean up any sort of mess made and to be very open if something were to happen at any point in time.

I'm very fond of cats as well I love all the different cat personalities and just being able to have some calm moments and snuggle with them.

About: I've always had dogs growing up. I love to be outside and active, so having a pet makes it that much more enjoyable. I have a 1 year old puppy who loves to play with others in our fenced in yard. I'm currently working Mondays, so I have more time available to spend with your pup. My family also is home full time to always be here to help. I have a fenced in yard and a dog friendly puppy to play with while they are here. Lots of freedom to run and play.
About: Here's a polished, uplifting, and professional version: I’m highly experienced in caring for all kinds of animals. I’ve had the privilege of working at the largest Pet Resort and Day Care in the Madison area. As a devoted fur mom myself, I understand how tough it is to leave your pet when you’re off on vacation or heading to work. I discovered this passion years ago, and I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby and provide them with top-notch care. I’m a dedicated fur momma and a small business owner running my home-based venture, while balancing a full-time 8-5 office job. My amazing husband also works with me to care for the fur babies, handling a full-time shift from 1:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Together, we create a structured routine that includes a dedicated 4-hour nap window for our boarding puppies, ensuring they rest comfortably between activities. On a personal note, I share my life with two beloved companions: Draco (Australian Cattle Dog) and Tank (a 13-year-old Shei Pei mix) who recently crossed the rainbow bridge. Their health and well-being, along with keeping them active and engaged, are our top priorities. We’re committed to providing compassionate, attentive care for every pet in our care, drawing from real-world experience, family values, and a deep love for animals. We can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby and welcome them into our caring home. We care for your pets with warmth, consistency, and clear communication. When we visit your home, we start with a friendly meet-and-greet to learn your routines, preferences, and emergency contacts, review medical history and medications, and set up a simple, detailed plan. Each visit includes feeding and fresh water exactly as you’d like, gentle supervision, and age and energy appropriate play and enrichment. We’ll keep your home safe and tidy, lock up securely, and always respect your rules. You’ll receive friendly updates every day with photos and a quick note about how your pet is doing. If you choose boarding or daycare at our home, we maintain a cozy, structured routine with dedicated nap times, quiet spaces, and a clear schedule for meals, walks, play, and rest. We supervise interactions to keep everyone safe and happy, and we tailor activities to each pet’s needs. If medications are required, we handle them with care and accuracy. For mobile or at client visits, we plan ahead, confirm access, and check in with timely updates feeding, potty breaks, hydration, and any medications, plus a little extra enrichment to keep things calm and comforting between visits. Across all services, we’re committed to emergency readiness, transparent pricing and policies, and thorough, easy to understand documentation of visits, medications, and behavior notes. We’d love to meet you and your fur baby tell us your preferred service names and any key policies you’d like highlighted, and we’ll tailor everything to fit your family’s needs.
About: I have experience with a lot of Senior Dogs and with middle age as well. I'm a very out going person and enjoy all types of pets and animals. My schedule is pretty open I would like to do this like 25 to 30 hours per week. I can any time of the day or night. I care for my pets in their environment by giving them a lot of dog watch and I have two cats and I even frequently walk them just to stretch their legs out.

“David was really good with the dogs. Our dogs quickly ‘adopted’ their new Humans and appeared quite happy throughout their visit. David has a nice palace for the dogs to run and play. We will not hesitate to board our dogs with David in the future.”

“Paige S. was an excellent babysitter for my Babycat. My Babycat is all that I have in this world and I would trust Paige S. with my Babycat anytime. After communicating and speaking to Paige on the phone, I realized that Paige was a true animal lover like myself. It was then I booked with her to board my Babycat while I had to go to the hospital for 2 nights. During my stay at the hospital, Paige answered text and even sent pictures of my Babycat to reassure me. She also helped load and unload Babycat in her carrier, as I am dealing with a handicap.This is how Paige takes excellent care of animals and their humans ! Thank you to Rover for having respectable, professional and loving caregivers like Paige S.! Thank you very much to Paige S. for all your care and extra help with my Babycat! Raul "Dan" Ornelas”

“Val was such an amazing host! He treated our dog, Bella, like one of the family. I even got a super cute picture of Bella, and she looked so happy! We can't wait to book with Val again!”

“Moka was very happy to see Alissa and did not seem sad to go with her. (This was her 1st time). There was good communication with Alissa. When we picked up Moka, you can tell she didn't miss mom that much. 😒 lol It's great to know that we have someone in the area that we can trust her with.”

“Courtney did a great job with Louie. It was such a pleasure to come back from a trip and have our pup alert, rested and well taken care of. Louie was accepted into the "Dog Pack" and we will for sure be asking Courtney to take care of our boy again in the future. Thank you Courtney.”

“Korie took wonderful care of Dizzy! Her communication and updates were clear and she was flexible with pickup and drop off times. Would absolutely love for Dizzy to stay with Korie and Ozzy again.”

“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 🥰”

“Ellen did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She provided updates and pictures throughout the stay, and was extremely prompt and responsive. Our dog had a blast playing with her dogs, and enjoyed her large fenced in yard—I think it was hard to leave his new friends to come home!”

“Bethany was amazing! She watched my little Archie for a long weekend and made our getaway more enjoyable by not having to worry about our fur baby! Will definitely be using her again!”

“Clementine had a wonderful time staying with Amber! She enjoyed many walks in the Baraboo area and enjoyed getting to stay with Cypress! Would love to have Amber watch Clementine again!”
“Amber was amazing! Her and her family helped take great care of my 3 month old pup for a few days while we were in the process of moving. She was super accommodating and helpful, taking him in just hours after us contacting her very last minute while stressed trying to figure out what to do with him. Taking in his “puppy shenanigans” and all like he was one of her own. Amber made sure to keep me updated about how his was doing helping to ease my mind of having him away from home for the first time. Sending me pictures/videos and messages about how his day was going. She also took the time to make sure that my pup was comfortable and entertained. Taking him on walks and being able to run around and play in the yard. Letting him go at his own pace and doing what made him feel safe when he didn’t like the rain or was was scared by her dog at first (he wasn’t the biggest one around anymore and couldn’t terrorize/annoy every living thing like he normally likes to do). She even went the extra mile to wash his bed after an accident over night and have him and all of his stuff packed up nicely and ready to go for me when I got there. My little boy loved playing with her and her family. And having the other dogs around for him to interact with was a bonus. When I tell you he was so excited when he first met them that I didn’t even get a second look over the shoulder or a goodbye before he took off to play with one of the kids ? (I’m still emotionally processing his betrayal ?). I could not recommend Amber enough! Your pet will be greatly taken care of (Not to mention worn out….he’s been napping since the moment we put him in the car) and all of your worries will fade the moment you get there.”

“Meghan and her loving family were so sweet, gentle, and loving to our dog Nolo. He is a sweet dog but also quite human-like in his peculiarities. They welcomed him in and he immediately knew he was staying with them. He looked back with hesitation as I left him in the arms of 6 petting hands. He watched TV with the family and laid under the dinging table and on the couch!! He naturally received a beauty treatment and hair brushing with ease. I could see he felt right at home. Meghan’s family was fantastic and they were all natural caretakers. Nolo will happily go back in the future. Thanks Meghan!”

“Kayla and her dogs made my pup feel right at home! He has a lot of energy and definitely met his match in the best way. I left him knowing he would be safe and entertained. As soon as he got in the car after pick up, he curled up and went to sleep which is always a sign of having a fun time. I would definitely recommend Kayla! ☺️”

“We had a fantastic experience with Luz. She's incredibly reliable, and her clean and secure home gave us total confidence. Our dog, Zeke, spent two nights with her and came home happy and relaxed, which is a huge difference from our past boarding experiences. We also loved the regular photo updates, which really kept my wife's mind at ease. It's clear that Luz has a special connection with dogs. We'll absolutely be booking with her again.”

“Our 2 dogs stayed at Sarah's for about a week earlier this month. The stay was great! We got daily updates, including photos and videos. They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”


“We were swayed to contact Erika for our dog caregiver by her glowing reviews on Rover. Throughout our communications with Erika through Rover prior to our vacation, and upon meeting her when we dropped our dogs off with her, she was warm, kind, and a very professional young lady. We were impressed by her and the wonderful habitat that our pups would call home for the next two weeks. Our dogs need exercise, and she excelled in that. One of our dogs even lost weight. We will return to Erika for future needs, and rest easy that our dogs are in the best hands!”

About: I am a huge dog lover. I love all kinds of dogs and have grown up with all different kinds of dogs of varying size and temperment. My family has had 2 havanese dogs and 2 newfoundlands so I have experience with a variety of sizes. Recently, I lost my soul dog, Max. Max was a shepherd mix and was my whole world. My husband and I had Max since he was a puppy and are looking to get our dog fix by helping out others. We understand the stress finding care for your dog can create, and we would love to help provide a safe and fun environment for your dog when you need it. We have a large yard (unfenced) and safe neighborhood for walks. We also have 2 children, aged 5 and 3. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available most of the time from home any given week. I have 2 children, aged 5 and 3, and they would love to help care for and love on a doggy. I have a large, unfenced yard in a quiet, safe, and dog friendly neighborhood. Our dog Max was always free to run around the yard without any issues. Dogs are allowed inside, on our furniture and I still have Max’s dog bed for use as well. I am also happy to pop in by your house to walk your dog if that’s needed.
