“We are so grateful for all the hard work and love Elba puts into our boys when we are gone. They return to us happy, glowing with health and full of fun! For the first time in many many years we feel completely at east when we have to leave our dogs. Thank you Elba! Your'e the best!”
“Debbie took great care of my puppy. She took the time to meet with me and Roxie beforehand to meet her and find out about her needs. It was great to know Roxie was safe while I was out and I would recommend Debbie.”
“Rebecca is great! My dog seemed very relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Not to mention tired out, which means she had some fun too! There is tons of room to roam in the fenced in back yard. Setting up a meet and greet was easy and communication was always great. We received lots of great updates which was nice knowing it was our old dog’s first time there.”
“Laura did amazing with Romeo, she updated us everyday on how he was doing and was very responsive. Romeo was in very good hands. We would definitely use her again!”
“Kristi did a great job, our two small dogs were happy when we picked them up and we could tell they were not stressed when we were gone. She snuggles with them on the couch and lets them sleep on the bed. They got along great with her dog. They even got homemade healthy treats. She let us come for a visit before their stay so it would not be a strange place for them to go. She is also 10 minutes from the airport. Will defiantly use Kristi again.”
“Blythe watched my pup for over a week and it was an awesomely positive experience for both me and Juno. Blythe was communicative, sent daily updates with pictures, and made me feel at ease. I will absolutely be recommending her to others and be re-booking services in the future.”
“They were so flexible and accommodating to my indecisive times for drop off and pickup. I truly appreciated the flexibility and my dog had a blast. She was so excited when we pulled up and she absolutely loved Karen and her younger son. We have already booked our next stay. Highly recommend!!”
“This was my first time using rover and Matt and Rachel made me feel very comfortable leaving Porter. They sent me regular photo updates and their communication was always clear and timely. I would definitely use them again!”
About: My family has dog sat for all sorts of different dogs. Puppies, seniors, energetic, or really anything! I love walking dogs and just having fun with them! I’m a firefighter so I work a rotating schedule of 24 hour shifts. So I get a lot of days off with a lot of availability. I have no pets of my own. Can give my full energy to walking and caring for your dogs whenever the schedules may work out.
“Rachel is great! She will love yours as her own. Stays updated and sends pics of your fur babies. Sets up a meet and greet which is wonderful so you know you’re in good hands. Definitely recommend and will definitely use her services again!”
“Amanda was great! She kept my Hundley while I had to take a quick trip out of town. She sent me lots of pictures and I could tell he was enjoying his time with her and her family ❤️. Will definitely use Amanda again!”
“She was very nice. She responded very fast and sent lots of pictures. She gave updates everyday and let me know how everything was going. Would definitely book with her again”
“Great experience working with Yshonda. It seems like my dog Scout really enjoyed staying with her. She did a very good job of keeping me updated while I was away on vacation, providing videos of scout interacting with the other dogs, and she was also very flexible with pick up and drop off. I would highly recommend her services!”
“Zachary was very helpful with our dog Otis. He was responsive and asked questions when needed. We felt Otis was in great hands with Zachary. Will use him again!”
“Scott was very accommodating and communicative, we got several pictures and even a short video of our dog out playing in the fresh snow. Our dog has a fear of smooth floors and Scott was able to layout enough rugs and beds that Barley was comfortable. Will book again.”
“Ashlee took great care of my 1-year old pup. He had fun playing with her dogs, and she was willing to take him at the last minute. She is very friendly and responsive.”
“Mochi had an amazing stay! Maria and Nayibe were supportive and flexible, able to change his drop off time and extend his stay an extra night when my travel plans were delayed. Mochi got to spend all day everyday with other dogs and two people he loves and trusts. He even got to sleep in bed with Maria and her kitty, just like he does with me at home. Originally, I planned to have Mochi visit for daycare only a few times before I traveled to prepare him for boarding for the first time. He loves it there so much though, that I will continue to send him for daycare playtime regularly. 🥰”
“Katrina was a great sitter! She updated us regularly throughout the visit on how our pup was doing. We did one day of daycare with her before an overnight weekend and that worked perfectly! Our pup was so comfortable with her and they got along great! We will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“This is Bud's third time with Mary G and her family. Mary knows I miss my fur baby, so she sends lots of photos and videos! Bud has so much fun with Mary's fur baby, Matteo. Exceptional pet sitting experience, once more! Thank you!”
“Kelli was amazing with my dog Dusty!! She sent frequent updates throughout my time away and made me feel very comfortable through the whole process. My dog definitely loved spending time with her. Would highly recommend Kelli and will definitely be using her services again!”

Your pet will receive care according to their unique needs while I'm visiting with them. Play, feeding, affection, or exercise defined by what you would want to be doing for them yourself.
“Michele took such fabulous care of our babies! They can be shy with new friends, but warmed up to Michele so quickly - especially rare for our reserved calico. Rover cards were detailed and the photos were so cute! Highly recommend if you are seeking someone who will care for your pets like their own.”
“Was able to accommodate a last-minute booking due to unexpected surgery and was super-accommodating over the weekend hospital stay updates. The pups looked super happy in every pic! Thanks so much.”
“Marilia was wonderful! Our cat, Zoe, was clearly in highly experienced, responsible, and caring hands. Marilia kept in close touch with any questions that came up and send regular updates. The entire experience gave us great peace of mind and we hope to hire Marilia for future cat-care needs.”

“Ashley was incredible to work with! She was quick to respond, communicated clearly and remained flexible with scheduling. Ashley sent me photos of Oliver and shared how the visit went. He clearly adored her from the photos! She also brought in a package that was delivered. This was my first Rover experience. I'm so grateful to have connected with Ashley! She will definitely be my go-to when I have to travel. Thank you, Ashley!”
About: I work as a part-time doggy swim coach and teacher at the Milwaukee County Zoo! Right now I'm not able to have dogs or cats of my own, so I get my pet fix by providing care for other people animals. I am used to working with anxious and senior dogs and I grew up with four cats!

I am used to working with stressed out and anxious animals. Let me know if you have any concerns and/or questions.
“Leslie is a compassionate animal lover who provided outstanding care for my cat. She always had great communication, providing plenty of adorable photos and thorough updates. She is detail-oriented, going above and beyond to make sure all of our pet and home-related needs are met. Knowing I had someone so genuine and reliable looking after my pet and home was a huge peace of mind. I came back home to a happy, satisfied cat and a clean space with everything left in place. It's such a comfort and relief to find such a trustworthy and exceptionally amazing pet sitter. I would highly recommend her for any animal care needs!”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: For over forty years we’ve always had dogs in our home. We have a sweet pitbull mix that we adopted last year. She came from a home with several dogs so she loves to meet and make new friends. We enjoy providing a good home to animals and we look forward to caring for your pets. Potty breaks can be provided every two hours. Your dog will have plenty of opportunities throughout the day to run, play fetch, or explore in our fenced backyard. We try to follow the same routine as you would for your pet at home. We only care for two dogs at a time as we have a dog of our own. The dogs have free run of the house if the owner doesn’t specify otherwise.
About: I love animals and have always had them. My friends reach out to me for pet sitting because they know I will take the best care of their fur babies! I have a teacup Yorkie and a cat so if you have a friendly pet, they are welcome to stay by me, but I am also retired so can stay by you if that's more convenient. I am very flexible! I am retired so have all day & evening to spend with your fur babies. I love to walk so would be sure to take your fur babies outside for fresh air any time of the year. I live in a safe area and have beautiful paths for dog walking any time of day. If your pet likes car rides, I love the beach & the water so could have lots of fun taking them wherever they like to go!
About: I owned a dog growing up and cared for and trained one with my family. I sit for friends and family from time to time and I love to play and take dogs for walks and, if they are able, runs of up to a few miles! I have a fenced in yard, and my kids (4, 8) are also great with animals. I work from home. With the exception of rare travel days, school drop-offs, and evening events, I will always be around the house to care for your pup. Your pet will get the attention it needs, as I work from home and I have a fenced in yard, as well as young boys that are great with animals. Frequent outside visits and play times are very doable.
“Friendly, flexible, and most importantly my little dog seems super happy and worn out after spending the day playing with theirs! Seems like a safe and fun fit for my fur child and will continue to rebook!”
“We had a great daycare experience with Jack, he looked after our Winnie! We booked on short notice and he was very flexible, which we really appreciated. Winnie was very well looked after and came home happy and relaxed. I loved the pictures he sent throughout the day, it gave me peace of mind since it was her first time away from home. We will definitely be booking with Jack again! 🐾”
“Yshonda has great communication and is very fast at responding. Hotch loves his time with her and he is always so excited to go and play! He always comes home exhausted from a day full of love and playtime!”
“Dean is an awesome dog sitter! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with him for the night! Dean made sure to send updates and pictures! Our dog had so much fun with Dean and his resident pup! We would be happy to book him again!”
About: I have many years of experience caring for and training my own pets and fostering a few along the way. I am an avid rescuer and love taking care of animals from all walks of life. High energy, elderly, barkers, wigglers even the stinky are welcome. I take pride in providing care for your pet. Cheers! I am home a lot and can be there for your pet most days and nights. I like having a walking buddy and I like staying active We have a woodsy backyard and a grassy front yard that a pooch can get some good exercise in. Two teenage boys to help with playtime and wife that loves to take dogs for jogs.
“Lotte gets along great with Katrina’s dogs and Katrina is wonderful with her and communicates regularly to let us know how who she is doing. We’re thankful to find someone who can watch her regularly.”
“I will always bring my fur kiddo to Dan and holly if they’re available! The made me feel so comfortable! This was my 2nd time using them and I never felt more relaxed with them having my boy!”
“Erin was an excellent host for Katie for daycare! She greeted Katie outside with a treat. We were updated with pictures throughout the day: including Katie playing with their dogs, relaxing like the queen that she is, and exploring the neighborhood on a walk. Erin was flexible with pickup times which really helped with a changing schedule due to travel delays. Already booked another stay for Katie.”
“Chatty seemed to really enjoy her time at Mikeila's house. Mikeila was very good at communicating with me and kept me informed during her stay. Chatty was excited to see Mikeila and couldn't wait to get into her house. I would highly recommend Mikeila for any dog sitting/daycare services.”
About: Welcome to my profile! I grew up with a wide variety of pets, so I truly understand how each one has their own unique personality. I know how deserving of love every animal is, and I will do everything in my power to make your pets happy. I treat your pets as my own, while also understanding the need to accommodate to every pet's individual quirks and needs. I recently lost one of my pups to cancer, and because of this, I am really yearning for some more furry friends to meet. Maybe your pet can be my next friend! I recently lost my job, so I currently have a very open schedule! I do have a couple of established clients outside of Rover, but my schedule is still very flexible. I live in a condo-style apartment, so although I do not have a yard, I go on many walks each day- whether around my neighborhood or by driving to a park or beach. I also live just down the street from a dog park, for pups who enjoy socialization and time off-leash. Additionally, I have a patio space for pups who enjoy hanging out al fresco when the weather allows. My own pup is a bit of an escape artist, so I am extra careful with doors, gates, and secure leashing practices. I am also aware of how curious dogs can be, so in my home you can be sure of a safe environment where there are no dangers within a dog's reach (or jump). Not only do I treat your pets with love and respect, but I treat your home with the same care. You can be sure I will keep things neat and tidy, and always make an effort to leave a space cleaner than I found it. No matter the service or location, every animal deserves to feel safe, cared for, and loved. I assure you that I put all my energy into caring for your pets, and I will always treat them as I do my own.
“Wendy is the absolute best! Professional, always gives so much love to my Dexter and all her other doggie pals that come over. She gives plenty updates and pictures to assure you that your fur baby is having the time of his his/her life! She’s the best and so friendly and loving. Safety is a big concern of mine. As I’m an over protective dog mom. Quality 10/10 safety 10/10 communication 10/10 and flexibility with scheduling 10/10.”

“Graciela did such a great job with Rooster! He came back from his walk happy and relaxed, and even took a little snooze right after—which says a lot because he usually has endless energy. You can tell he really enjoyed his time with her. We’ll definitely be making this a regular thing with Graciela. She made the whole experience feel comfortable and stress-free. So glad we found her!”

About: **Availability update** Beginning August 24th, my weekday availability may be more limited due to a new hybrid work schedule. I’ll continue offering weekend care and select weekday/drop-in availability. Feel free to reach out with your dates — I’m happy to see if I can accommodate your pet’s needs! 🐾 Hi! I’m Alissa, and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I grew up around pets and currently have a Mini American Shepherd named Gracie, so I understand how important routine, exercise, and attention are for dogs. I specialize in in-home pet care and overnight stays, allowing pets to remain relaxed and comfortable in their own environment while you’re away. I aim to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible — including walks, meals, playtime, medication, and providing calm, consistent companionship. I’m dependable and detail-oriented, and I take the time to follow instructions carefully so your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for. I also understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big responsibility, and I take that seriously. I prioritize clear communication and regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m based in the Milwaukee area and open to nearby locations. I focus on providing reliable, attentive care so you can feel confident your pet and home are in good hands while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet with patience, care, and consistency, I’d love to connect. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I prioritize making sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I’m happy to coordinate schedules ahead of time to match your pet’s normal routine, whether that includes walks, feeding, medication, or overnight companionship. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, preferences, and comfort needs to keep their environment familiar and stress-free. I pay close attention to details like feeding times, walking routes, and favorite toys so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away.
About: I am a lover of all animals (dogs, cats, snakes, you name it) and have always owned cats. I've regularly dogsat for family members while they're on vacation, but my cat Lily does not get along well with dogs, so I have never had one personally. I am very active and outdoorsy, and would make sure your furbabies remain active and happy while they're being cared for by me. I am comfortable caring for animals who may require a little extra love, as my family cat Lily is a senior girl who requires twice daily medication. I work a part-time service industry job, so I am always available before 3pm on weekdays, and do not tend to work very long shifts on any day of the week other than Saturday. My schedule varies every week, but I would not accept a job for days that I will be working too much. My family cat, Lily, is 17.5 years old with severe hearing loss and a twice daily medication. I regularly medicate her and ensure she is happy and healthy throughout the day, and would do the same with your furbabies.
About: I've had dogs in my life for forever, puppy to senior. They make me happy. Patience is required. I have lots of patience. I have loved all my dogs. I have trained my dogs, and nursed them back to health when sick/injured. I am semi-retired and willing to hang out with your pet at my home or yours. I occasionally run errands but am not away for long periods of time. At my home, there is a large fenced yard for running/playing, and a safe space indoor crate, for napping. Also, cushioned mats for lying upon. I ask questions, and listen. I try to make certain the routine of the pet is not disrupted.
“Mary has been so helpful and supportive the last two weeks. I had a couple of deaths in my family and Mary was able to walk my dog and check in on her when I had to fly home for a funeral. She’s so sweet and thoughtful and it was so great to know my pup was being so well taken care of! She’s the best ❤️”
“Julie was great with my elderly dog! She was kind and personable and always cheerful! I appreciated her taking such good care of Rogue and walking her in treacherous conditions like ice and snow! I’d definitely recommend her and use her services again :)”

About: I recently adopted my own dog as a puppy during the pandemic and have been a proud dog mom ever since! Besides my own dog I have experience with walking extended families dogs and caring for my friends dog while they were out of town. I'm looking to use the skills and experience I have gained to care for other pets in my neighborhood! I'm currently a new grad school student at UWM (go panthers) so my schedule has a bit of flexibility to it. I have classes in the evenings at the moment and would prefer to do morning walks during the week or anytime during the weekend! While at a clients home I am very attentive to their pet and its needs and make sure to give it the same love and care as I would my own!
“Alexis was very accommodating right from the beginning! Not only was she able to fit me in the same week while meeting my dog prior, but she made sure to let me know when she was arriving to my apartment along with sending a picture at the end. I would definitely recommend and plan to use her again!”
About: Ive always been an animal lover. If I could I would adopt all the homeless pets because it saddens me how many are out there suffering. This is why I thrive to provide my pets the best care I can and hopefully yours too! I am currently working part time so I can always be flexible and meet the needs of your pets! Just contact me and we can work something out! I have enrichment time with my own pets at home and try to take my husky to dog park as much as I can because I know how sad it can be to be home alone all day.
About: Hello! I am an animal enthusiast! I grew up with a dog, and currently have two cats. I love all animals, but dogs and cats especially. I am hoping to be your go-to for reliable, caring, dog exercise. I understand that dogs are our furry family members, and I will look after your dog like they are my own! I'm an educator and I have all summer to ensure your dog gets great exercise! Very flexible weekday scheduling! Please contact me, and I am sure we can easily find a time that works.

About: I have helped take care of my own pets for as long as we’ve had them. I have one cat and one dog. I take my dog on walks, feed her, play, and clean up outside after bathroom use. I clean my cats litter box, give him his pills and asthma treatments, play, and give alone time when wanted. I also have experience caring for small pets such as a guinea pig, a bunny, chicks, and chickens! I am currently looking for an entry part time position at vet clinics near me so until then I have a clear schedule! I will be starting a vet program in August so my availability will change at that time. Usually I am given written instructions about what kind of tasks are required and what the animals likes and dislikes are. I can follow feeding schedules, walk schedules, and potty breaks. There is no such thing as too much information about your pet, the more I know the better care I can take of them!

About: What sets me apart is my hands on experience as a dog foster, which has given me the ability to care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to new routines quickly and helping pets feel safe and settled in a new environment. I provide calm, attentive, in home care where pets are treated like family. I focus on keeping their routine consistent, whether that includes feeding schedules, potty breaks, crate time, or extra play and attention. I’ve cared for both high energy dogs who need structure and exercise, as well as more anxious or relaxed dogs who need a calm, comforting space. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, loved, and at home while their owners are away and to keep owners updated so they can feel at ease. My schedule is flexible, I work part time and I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day. I’m typically home most of the day, so pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. I can adjust my daily routine around the pets in my care and make sure their needs are met on a regular schedule. I provide care in a calm, clean, and pet friendly home where safety and comfort are the top priority. Pets are supervised throughout the day and are never left unattended for long periods. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any specific instructions from the owner. I introduce pets slowly into my home to help them feel comfortable and settled. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and all outdoor breaks are always supervised. Inside, pets have a cozy, relaxed environment where they can rest and feel at home. Pets are welcome on furniture if that is allowed by their owner, so they can stay as comfortable as they are in their own home. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, especially during the adjustment period. My goal is to create a safe, low stress, loving environment, and I provide regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing.
“Took my dog to Marilyn for the first time this past weekend. She sent pics and videos!! When I picked him up, he sat by her and almost didn’t want to leave? That’s how I know... he was happy being there!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be happier with Dawn and her husband! They were so welcoming at our Meet and Greet and made us feel very comfortable leaving Zeke overnight. She sent us updates and pictures of him having a blast in their back yard, so I could tell Zeke was having a great time. I highly recommend Dawn and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Angela was great, our Penny had a lovely time and came home tired and happy. Angela was great with communication and pictures and very flexible about pick up and drop off. I would definitely bring our Penny back.”
