“She is absolutely the best sitter I’ve used. Her children and her dogs were perfect for Zoe. She has a large fenced yard giving Zoe lots of room to play. I think Zoe thinks I’m totally boring now. LOL I’m so grateful Rebecca sent me updates and pictures. She’s the best!”
“Scott was a wonderful sitter to our dog, Phoebe. Excellent communication, professional, and friendly. He sent us a few pics while we were away to let us know how she was doing, which I especially appreciated. Definitely recommend Scott, and his cute dog Lucy, to anyone looking for a sitter and a playmate.”

“Wow! My boys had so much fun with Debbie! They’re small but they LOVE to hike and had a great time hiking with Debbie and her friends. Very grateful for her excellent care. We never worried about them while we were away. Debbie is definitely a 5 star pet sitter!”
“So kind and accommodating. It was great that she had a dog as it helped mine feel at ease. Sara asked for a meet & greet to make sure we were on the same page. Thank you for taking him to the dog park, his favorite place to be. Will definitely ask to rebook with her if needed on my next visit. Thank you Sara!”
“We definitely recommend Maria and Nayibe. We were constantly updated with photos and we could tell that our dogs were being well cared for and even pampered. We will be booking again!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”

“I have a special-needs dog that is blind, and due to loss of sight struggles with other dogs only because he can’t see them coming. Tracy watch Dover Rocky and make sure he was OK with all the other dogs and then sent me some of the cutest pictures of him just relaxing little notes telling me he was getting along with a dog that barked at him earlier. I’m never left Rocky with any other person other than family. Tracy is not part of that family.”

“Moving to Milwaukee not knowing anyone, finding a quality dog sitter was my top priority, and Erin has gone above and beyond any of my expectations. When I drop Lux off I know he is going to be the most taken care of and loved little man. Staying at Erin's has been his home away from home, and I have appreciated Erin's consistent communication and photo updates during his stays. Erin herself is incredibly diligent with making sure she knows all necessary information about how to care for your animal, and goes out of her way to be flexible with timing of drop off/pick-ups or if you need last minute services. I am so sad to be moving away and to not be able to rely on Erin anymore - she truly is the best! :(”
“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!”

About: Hi, I’m Ashling! I love all animals, and cats hold a very special place in my heart. I’ve been caring for cats since middle school, when I started out as the go-to neighborhood cat sitter. Today, I am the first-choice caregiver for my family and friends whenever they travel and need someone to keep their kitties safe, comfortable, and content. I understand that cats are creatures of habit and can be sensitive to changes in their environment or routine. My primary goal is to minimize their stress and ensure they feel secure while you're away.
“Kristine was awesome with my cat Winnie. She can get scared with new faces but Kristine was kind and gentle with her. 10/10 would book with her again!”
“Marilia took such good care of the cats I think they may have been disappointed when I came home! Super responsive and even our shyer cat took a liking to her immediately. Would definitely have her cat sit again!”
“During the visit there was a moderate snafu with the Rover app showing visit times. When recognized Dev quickly remedied the situation by doing a visit later in the day. Dev followed all the detailed instructions to take care of my old guys!”
“Berenice was consistent and kept my cats from guessing at what time they will eat and get some cuddles. I appreciate this because they do not like change. She communicated via Rover only which was a bit hard because of where we were so next time I will insist on getting texts instead if possible. She was also very responsive when I asked her to do something.”
“Courtney was incredible and did an amazing job watching our kitties! I’m anxious by nature and Courtney could tell I needed more reassurance while being away from our girls so she sent me tons of updates, photos, and videos! I recommend Courtney 9,000 percent!”
“Michele was great with Pekoe. His photos showed my stranger-averae parrot to be calm and happy. She did a great job respecting his space and personality while keeping his bedtime routine intact. I've already booked her for my next 2 trips. 🙂”
About: I’m a cat-focused pet sitter who is comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, including shy or nervous cats who need patience and space to warm up. I pay close attention to each cat’s normal routine and behavior. During visits, I can handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, enrichment, and lots of companionship. I know how important it is for cat parents to feel updated, so I send photo updates after every visit.
About: I’ve never owned a cat as I used to be extremely allergic. As I’ve gotten older and I have multiple friends with cats, I’ve found out I am able to be around cats and love on them with just a daily allergy pill. With that, I’ve come to realize how much I truly enjoy taking care of them.
About: Hello! My name is Brianna, and I have over 10 years of combined experience caring for cats in both personal and neighborhood settings. I began pet sitting at a young age, regularly caring for neighbors’ cats, and over the years I’ve continued to provide reliable care for friends’ and family members’ cats while they’re away. I’m comfortable with all aspects of cat care, including feeding, litter maintenance, playtime, administering basic care, and respecting each cat’s unique personality and boundaries. I understand that cats thrive on routine and familiarity, and I take a calm, patient approach to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. Cats have always been a meaningful part of my life, and I have a natural ability to read their behavior and respond to their needs with care and attentiveness. I treat every cat as an individual and make their comfort and well-being my top priority. I look forward to meeting you and caring for your feline family members!
About: Hello paw parent! I have two fur babies of my own named Oreo, a Lhasa Apso, 9yrs old, and a Great Dane, Danerys, who is 4yrs old.

Pets including, but not limited to, cats, dogs, ferrets, etc. I've become a huge pet lover through meeting lots of wonderful fur babies, not to mention raising my own. Working at a doggy daycare has also provided me with the experience and knowledge of caring for animals. With this experience I can provide care, quality time, and love to your fur baby. Book me and you will certainly have a happy puppy back at home. I am at home full time so your pet and I will spend lots of time together. I have open availability and can provide a routinely eat, play, sleep environment treating your fur baby as my own.

My neighborhood is pet friendly. I will provide a cozy space for the pets to rest, a nice neighborhood walk for exercise, and dedicated playtime, not to mention lots of cuddles. Provided with special instructions, you can be certain I will be attentive and caring of any pet requiring specific needs or prescribed medication. If you need me to stay in your home the same attention and care will be extended.

They will be taken out, fed, groomed, and exercised following your usual daily routine.

“We are traveling and needed someone to watch Ginger for the day. Miranda calmed mom’s nerves down since this was the 1st time for this. Miranda gave us updates and the whole experience was delightful.”
“Markie and Logan came home smiling and tired, which is really all I ask. they had a blast playing with all of the other dogs, and Logan didn't want to come inside from Joe's back yard!”
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.
“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!”
“Second week of doggy daycare for Penny and she loves her attention from Dan, Holly and whoever else can give her pets and love. She use to not care for other dogs but is starting to interact and play. My heart is happy for this wonderful place for my Penny.”
“Kait was a pleasure to work with! She was very good at communicating, sent excellent pictures and was not shy to ask questions about Maya’s care! Her and her precious Zelda welcomed my Maya with open arms and warm hearts 😁 I HIGHLY recommend booking with her! We will definitely be back!”
“Luscely was available last minute and didn't make me jump through hoops to dogsit. She was communicative, fair, and my dog was happy. I will absolutely use her again!”
“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.”
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.
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.
“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.”
“Wendy was super responsive and communicative! She was able to take Jenny last minute for daycare and she got along great with Batman! Highly recommend and will definitely be back if need a sitter in Milwaukee!”
“Jill was able to accommodate our request rather last minute and was communicative throughout. She gave our senior dog a wonderful day of companionship; we know she was well cared for and left very happy.”
“Very pleased with our first day. Elba is very welcoming and treated Coco like part of her family. She took Coco for a walk and I can tell there was play time with her friendly dog as Coco came home tired and well behaved. She shared couple pictures which I foward with my Army deployed son in Kuwait (Coco's dad). Glad to find someone i can trust my son's dog with. Looking forward to future services until he comes back.”
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats going back to childhood. I have been actively pet sitting for 5+ years and have experience with puppies and kittens, seniors, and pets with special needs. I have also cared for rabbits and am very flexible and willing to learn! I am a teacher, so I am free most of the summer to watch your pet and give them some love! September -May I am still available but with less flexibility I enjoy drop ins and walks so I can give pets attention and care while in their own comfortable environment. I can also watch dogs at my home for those who need overnight visits, but dogs MUST be cat friendly/neutral without history of chasing cats
“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! 🐾”
About: I’m 24 and have worked with over 5 animal shelters and have pet sit for many friends and family over the last 10 years. I’m familiar with providing medications and attention to older animals. I have done all kinds of visits and just want to help fellow animal parents in need. I have one pup at my apartment, his name is Eddie and he’s a wiener dog and beagle mix. There’s a park in very close walking distance for exercise. There are stairs for my apartment so if your dog is too big for me to carry up it may be uncomfortable for older animals. I hope to train and help animals for a living someday and I’d love to play with yours. Willing to fulfill special requests.

About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.
“I have had my sweet little dog for over 15 years. No one has walked her except for family members and the people at doggy daycare. She is also deaf and partially blind. So I was extremely nervous to have somebody else walk her. But this was perfect! Leandrea did a great job with Jolie! She was on time, didn’t mind Jolie dragging her around the condo building several times, and give her kisses. It was wonderful to hear and to see Jolie happy and excited in all the pictures.”
“Berenice has been very reliable and sends cute photos of Wednesday on their walks. We have been very happy with her so far, and we feel our dog is in great hands!”
“Vanessa has been walking my dog regularly for several weeks now and I couldn’t be happier with her help. She’s been very patient and loving with my dog, flexible on the schedule, and provides great walk reports and pictures. Thanks, Vanessa!”
About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs of many different breeds, and loved them all. Let me help out with your pet and they’ll probably like me too! Currently I have sporadic trips planned until I start classes at the end of August, then my availability will greatly differ but I’m not sure of the exact hours. I can’t care for pets in my home due to one of my cats being very unfriendly, but I will take great care in your home if necessary!
About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm experienced with dogs from all walks of life, from your social butterflies to your shy guys, your runners fetchers swimmers and wrestlers, you name it, I'm down for it. I have calm and confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.
About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I provide the exercise, affection, and midday relief they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Currently I’m working part time only on the weekends, so I have all the time during the week to care for your pets! Mornings, afternoons, and nights. My pets live the best life in my home! In your home trust me I will care for them as my own. I will follow whatever instructions you give me.
About: I am new to Rover and looking forward to providing the best care for your loved one. I have worked with dogs through shelters and personal pet sitting for family and friends. I am new to Rover and work part-time with animals. I am available for pet sitting, walks and drop-ins during the weekends all day and with some flexibility during weekdays. We can discuss boarding on a case by case basis. I will follow the owner's guidelines and treat your house and pets with respect. I use a common sense approach to safety and will stay vigilante when spending time with your loved one. I believe in clear communication and am happy to update you as much as needed. Thank you allowing me to help relieve some of the petcare duties for your dog or cat. My personal goal is to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you are away!
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.

“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: My name is Karina and I've owned and cared for cats my entire life. While I've always wanted to add a dog into my family, my father is allergic. However, I never resist mingling with dogs whenever I can! I'm very experienced with caring for cats, including feeding, cleaning the litter box, etc. I am so open to home visits to check in on dogs as well as walk them. Outside of animals, I'm a pharmacist! Additionally, I love to travel, go to new restaurants, and cozy up with a good book. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have! I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to check in on your kitties/pups! I also have tons of energy so I'm able to play with them as well. I will listen to you and your wants/needs and how you care for your animals. I know some owners love to keep their dogs in the crate when they're away, and I would do the same.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so I understand how stressful it can be to find someone to take care of your pets while you’re away or even just gone for the day at work. Our pets are the whole world to us so it’s important you find someone you trust. I hope that once you get to know me I can be that person for you! I have over 13 years experience as I have been around animals my whole life. I love learning their little personalities the things they love whether it’s going for a walk and they have a specific fire hydrant they always stop at or a specific toy at home they always love to play with. Currently I have a cat named Stella who has provided me lots of experience in anxious cats as well as in tricks on giving medication. I am currently a substitute teacher with the summer off so I can provide pop in visits throughout the week as well as the weekends! Safety of pets is my number one priority with your pets as well as my own. I will always care for your pet like they are my own when I am with them to ensure they have adequate care. I will get to know your pet and notice when things may seem off if they aren’t feeling well. I also maintain safety when walking with your pet and making sure to learn their temperament before walks as well.

“I highly recommend Laura! Her easy-going & friendly demeanor was evident from our first meeting, making my decision to leave Rupert with her for a long weekend a no brainer. I really appreciated the updates & photos she shared throughout Rupert's stay with her. It was apparent when I picked him up, that he had enjoyed his time with Laura & her pup, Diesel. I will absolutely book with Laura again!”

“We had a great experience with Kellene taking care of our pup. She was very responsive before and during the stay, and sent many updates/photos. Ozzy and coco got along great and it was nice to have a meet and great before to make sure the stay would go well. She treated Ozzy like her own pup and took him for walks, lots of play time and cuddles. We couldn’t ask for anything more!”
“She is absolutely the best sitter I’ve used. Her children and her dogs were perfect for Zoe. She has a large fenced yard giving Zoe lots of room to play. I think Zoe thinks I’m totally boring now. LOL I’m so grateful Rebecca sent me updates and pictures. She’s the best!”
“Scott was a wonderful sitter to our dog, Phoebe. Excellent communication, professional, and friendly. He sent us a few pics while we were away to let us know how she was doing, which I especially appreciated. Definitely recommend Scott, and his cute dog Lucy, to anyone looking for a sitter and a playmate.”
“Daniel and Holly continue to be amazing. They watch buster every time my husband and I go on vacation. They are flexible with time and dates, and buster is always so excited to see them again!”
“Joe was very responsive throughout the process and we had a nice meet and greet with our pup before a 5 night stay. We got daily communication and photos and it seems like our pup had a fun time. Would recommend.”
“Mary was very welcoming, communicative, and friendly during my dogs stay at their home. My dog absolutely loved to run around in their big yard and relax inside on the couch. Mary sent me Photos/videos multiple times a day which was much appreciated. Would be happy to book again!”
“Wow! My boys had so much fun with Debbie! They’re small but they LOVE to hike and had a great time hiking with Debbie and her friends. Very grateful for her excellent care. We never worried about them while we were away. Debbie is definitely a 5 star pet sitter!”
“So kind and accommodating. It was great that she had a dog as it helped mine feel at ease. Sara asked for a meet & greet to make sure we were on the same page. Thank you for taking him to the dog park, his favorite place to be. Will definitely ask to rebook with her if needed on my next visit. Thank you Sara!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”
“Wallen had such a good time ! He really enjoyed being with Zachary! They bonded instantly. He sent us pictures and updates. Its been over a year since wallen has been boarded and it’s always nice knowing your bay is so well taken care of”
“I have a special-needs dog that is blind, and due to loss of sight struggles with other dogs only because he can’t see them coming. Tracy watch Dover Rocky and make sure he was OK with all the other dogs and then sent me some of the cutest pictures of him just relaxing little notes telling me he was getting along with a dog that barked at him earlier. I’m never left Rocky with any other person other than family. Tracy is not part of that family.”
“Moving to Milwaukee not knowing anyone, finding a quality dog sitter was my top priority, and Erin has gone above and beyond any of my expectations. When I drop Lux off I know he is going to be the most taken care of and loved little man. Staying at Erin's has been his home away from home, and I have appreciated Erin's consistent communication and photo updates during his stays. Erin herself is incredibly diligent with making sure she knows all necessary information about how to care for your animal, and goes out of her way to be flexible with timing of drop off/pick-ups or if you need last minute services. I am so sad to be moving away and to not be able to rely on Erin anymore - she truly is the best! :(”
“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!”
“Blythe is always great with our senior dog, Maggie. We were coming home from our vacation during a snowstorm and she was extremely flexible and open to extending Maggie’s stay if needed due to flight cancellations. We are so grateful to have Blythe to care for our doggo when we are away. 💕”
“Katrina is top tier! She was responsive and kept us informed on how our Mac was doing. Such a warm welcoming environment for our little guy to stay in for a couple of days and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in the best hands. Her dogs are the sweetest floofs too and we can't begin to express how pleased we are with how everything went. Forever grateful for the time and attention she showed.”
