“I now know why Yolanda has such great reviews! When I went to pick up my Zoe girl 🐾 I could tell that she had a great time with the family. Yolanda sent pictures and updates of my doggie and I really appreciated it! I 100% recommend her for dog sitting needs! Thank you, Yolanda!!!!”
“Marilynn took great care of our pup. We felt comfortable leaving town knowing he was in good hands. She even brushed him before he came home. We will be using Marilynn again :)”
“Daniel and Holly are incredibly organized, care about your dog’s routine and genuinely love animals. My dog had a great stay with their other fur guests. Holly provided me with details and upbeat feedback on how he was doing. 10 out of 10 recommend!”
“Sarah, Dan and their girls were amazing! Badger loves children and had a ball. They provided pictures during the stay which helped calm our nerves. We noticed he was exhausted when he got home which is a good sign. We would definitely use them again.”
“Kristine took great care of our cat and dog while we were out of town. She gave us daily updates which we appreciated. Would definitely book her again.”
“Mitch was very accommodating with my last minute booking request. After a quick meet and greet, I left my 4 year old pup in good hands for an overnight stay. Mitch has a nice big fenced in yard for the dogs to play, he was very responsive with his communication and provided photo updates. Would definitely recommend.”
“Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!”
“Max and his girlfriend took great care of my pup!! She loved having other dogs to play with. Max has a wonderful personality and vibe. He is very compassionate and you can tell has a spot in his heart for dogs. My pup had a ton of time playing outside, took walks and had a park adventure. Max is accommodating and was happy go alloys my pup to relax on the furniture and most importantly sleep/snuggle up in bed at night. Would HIGHLY recommend anyone to Max gor dog sitting.”
“Zachary was great with my petsitting needs - especially given that I reached out for the first time within a week of needing the help. He fit me into his schedule for a meet n greet (which went really well), I really liked that he had a fenced in backyard. The stay was arranged for 5 days (I ended up coming back a day early and was able to pick him up early). Zachary provided updates early in the stay to let me know how my dog was settling in. Zachary was very responsive to my messages and was quick to reply. If you have a dog with separation anxiety (like mine), it was great that he lives in a house, so there were no wall neighbors (such as apartments) to worry about with any barking. If I find myself traveling for a few days again, I will definitely reach out to see if Zachary is available to watch my dog!”
“Laura took such good care of our dog, Plum, for a week while we were out of town. She sent me photo updates of Plum playing with her dog Diesel every day, and it was clear that her family was showing him so much love. I am so grateful to Laura for watching over Plum for us and being so responsive, reliable, and warm. Her house was also super close to the airport which made pick up / drop of very convenient and a safe fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in. I highly recommend booking with Laura and will do so again next time!”
“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.”
“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”
“Working with Julia and Colin was our first Rover experience and we could not be happier with how it went! Julia is extremely communicative and made the process easy. Our dog took to them very quickly and we could tell she was made comfortable in their home. We look forward to booking with them again!”
“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Ashley and her family. Penelope has stayed with Ashley before, and it is so clear how much they genuinely adore her — and the feeling is absolutely mutual! Ashley is incredible about sending me photos and little updates throughout the day, so I always know how Penelope is doing and what kind of fun she is getting into. There is such a difference between knowing your pet is being well cared for and knowing she is being genuinely loved while you’re away, and with Ashley, I never have to worry for a second. Her entire family is so incredibly sweet to Penelope, and she is clearly completely comfortable and happy in their home. When I picked her up today, she genuinely seemed like she would have preferred to stay with them rather than come home with me — which I suppose is the highest praise a pet sitter can receive 😂 Ashley has become someone I completely trust with Penelope, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be back!”
“Scott is a great communicator. He provided a wonderful environment for Jameson. Very attentive to our needs. Very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would recommend him to everyone who is interested in getting great care for their dogs!”
“Gabriel treated our dog like his own. He took him out for many walks per day and my dog loved playing with his cute little one! He was super communicative and sent us updates every day. We won't hesitate to book with Gabriel again.”
“Nylia was amazing to our dog. Nylia fed her on time, walked her when she needed, and cared for her like she was with me. Nylia is the dog babysitter you need to book. We will be booking with her again when we come back to Milwaukee.”
“Christina was amazing! She watched our dogs on the weekend of our daughter’s wedding. Our schedule fluctuated and Christina accommodated each change. Our dogs loved her as well! We will definitely rely on her again in the future.”

“Lexi was great! She was very prompt, treated our kitties as if they were her own and even brought one of her favorite cat toys along to get ours to play more which they did! I think we will be buying that cat toy. We will definitely want her to take care of them again when we go away next. It’s a huge relief to find someone to trust with our cats.”
“Leandrea did an absolute wonderful job with my kitty! It was the second time I hired her and I have nothing negative to say about the experience! Thank you for everything :’)”
“Erica was a huge help and accepted my request on very short notice! She did a great job taking care of my cat, Ladybug, and provided updates after every visit. Thanks, Erica!”
“Kristy did a great job caring for my kitty. She was prompt and clear with all our communications, starting with the first meeting, and was very pleasant to work with. I'll definitely contact her again next time.”
“I was hesitant to use a service like River for my vacation but Emily was amazing! She took excellent care of my kitties and my home. She sent lots of photos and was very easy to get in touch with. I will be using her again and highly recommend her!”
“Nicole took amazing care of my cat! He's normally skittish, but he warmed up to her right away during the initial visit, and even let her brush him. Nicole sent update photos every day and I could tell how happy he was to see his new playmate during her visits. When I got home everything was in order (except of course for the toys my mischievous boy likes to redistribute). I'll definitely be booking with Nicole again the next time I'm out of town!”
“I enjoyed the photo updates everyday showing Merlin doing his favorite thing, people watching on the porch. I wasn’t worried about my kitty while away.”
“This chick is phenomenal! She has a great personality and is very engaged with animals. My German shepherd loves her and even gets to play in the water with her. Her communication skills are stellar. I received live updates and photos while at work. If you want someone reliable and dedicated to your fur babies, she is it. I HIGHLY recommend her! <3”
About: **update** I’ve moved neighborhoods! I now live near Wauwatosa! I do have a fenced in yard! I’ll still take clients in Bayview too! ☺️☺️ I had a dog in my house every since I was in elementary school, and loved each one of them more than anything in the world. I have been dog sitting since my mid 20s, and thoroughly enjoy taking care of and loving dogs of all sizes! I work close to home Wednesday through Sunday, no more than 7 hours at a time. That leaves plenty of time for several walks, playtime and the dog park(if allowed). I live 2 blocks from several parks and a 10 minute drive to 3 dog parks. Your pup(s) will get plenty of exercise and have free roam of my house, and can sleep wherever they choose including the furniture and beds(unless otherwise instructed:) )
About: I’ve grown up with cats my entire life and currently have two of my own, so I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities! From shy hiders to confident attention seekers, volunteering at the Austin Animal Center for the past year and half has given me hands on experience with cats of all temperaments and needs. I understand that every cat has their own routine, quirks, and comfort level, and I always aim to keep things as stress-free and familiar as possible while you’re away. As a certified crazy cat lady, I can promise your fur babies are in good hands with me 💓
“Jeremy was an amazing cat sitter! Both my cats were immediately comfortable and really grew to like Jeremy’s daily visits and play time. Super responsive and always sending lots of pics for me to check in on- it’s was such a relief to have them in Jeremy’s care. Highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve had animals, mostly dogs and cats since I was A child. Let me know what your fur baby needs! I’m happy to accommodate. I had a beagle with me for 15 years and he was on various medications as he aged so I know how to administer medications if needed. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8-4:30 but am happy to walk your pet before or after those hours! I am happy to provide whatever care they might need while you are away. I see pets as members of the family. I have 2 dogs...a terrier and a mini poodle. I love them to pieces and they run the house! Lol. They are well behaved and allowed on the furniture and the bed. Your fur babies would be too! I want them to be comfortable in my home. If I’m dropping in to take care of your fur baby in their home just let me know what I need to do for them and consider it done! I take my pups out every morning for a short walk, after work, and just before bed time. I feed them twice a day with occasional treats that they love mixed in :) I'm in an apartment so they will be leashed when we go outside. I live close to 3 different parks as well as the Menomonee River Parkway....lots of space to walk with them and let them sniff away!
About: What started out as babysitting quickly turned to dog and cat sitting as parents and friends saw the love that I have for children and animals. 🐾 My part-time schedule will allow me to have plenty of flexibility for our furry friends as part of my day. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some extra playtime and cuddles, I’m happy to include their care into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and am available for pet care Tuesday through Sunday, with a standing commitment on Tuesday mornings/early afternoons (10 a.m.–1 p.m.) and church on Sunday mornings (9:30-12). I’m dependable, flexible, and genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their people are away! Because I live in a duplex with my own dog, I prefer to go to clients homes and care for pets where they feel most comfortable and at home.

About: Looking for a reliable, experienced dog sitter who will give your pup one-on-one care? I've loved dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets. I work from home, so your dog will get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. My home features a large fenced yard and a doggie door for safe, supervised fun. I only board one dog at a time and treat every dog like family and provide a loving, stress-free stay with regular updates, walks, and lots of affection. I work from home, so I am able to meet any meal or medication routines throughout the day. Your pup will be well taken care of! I have a large fenced-in yard and a friendly 4-year-old staffie that would love to show your pet all the best sniffing spots! Your dog will be able to roam free or can be crated if desired.
“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.”
“Michael and his wife were very kind to champ. They are true dog lovers. Very responsive to our requests. We returned later than we thought we due to traffic and Michael was were very understanding and gracious about it. Thank you!”
“My partner and I wanted to spend a couple of hours on my birthday at some places that don't allow pups - after quick and easy communication with Michelle, we booked daycare with her. Our pup is very social with dogs and people but is always super cautious at first. When we dropped Navi off, she was a bit skittish and didn't really want to go in the house. This left us feeling a bit worried. However, Michelle immediately sent us an update with pictures after we drove away showing Navi explore the house and the backyard. Throughout the day I received so many pictures and videos of Navi playing in the pool and with other pups. It genuinely was the best birthday present I could have asked for. It made us so happy to receive so many updates showing Navi living her best life with her new friends. It was clear Michelle loves doing what she does and cares for every pup like they are her own. If we are ever in the Milwaukee area again, we would love to have you watch after our girl again! Thank you again, Michelle!”
“Elizabeth was fantastic and put our anxious pup at ease. Dobby thrived with her and Enoch and came home happy and well cared for. We would happily have him stay with her again and would recommend her to others.”
“This was first experience with a sitter as well as our puppy's first time with a sitter, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We appreciated the love, attention, and updates. He was well cared for, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable. Thank you for taking good care of him Max.”
“We were so appreciative for Tyler's flexibility and attention to our puppy. Our typical dog sitter was ill and Tyler was there to help. Our puppy had a great time and loved his fenced in yard.”
“Linda was super accommodating for a last minute booking, she was very flexible with the pick up and drop off times and she was very kind to us and amazing with our babies!”
About: After several busy months on Rover with almost nonstop bookings, I have had such great stays with dozens of dogs, no accidents in the houses, no bites, no runaways, zero negative experiences. I feel confident that with me, you’re getting a premium stay for your pets for a really good value! I’m incredibly hands on and present with the pets, with them 24/7 and very adaptable with the different needs and personalities. I’m attentive with different care instructions and really shower the animals with positive attention 😊 I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting because it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.
“Amazing communication and pictures throughout. Soba had such a great time hanging out with Tracie and Penny! She was totally pooped from all the fun we had by the time we got home. Would definitely bring soba back without hesitation.”
“Thank you so much to Kim! Kim was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog Mushi today. She's very friendly and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our lab mix rescue with her while we enjoyed the Milwaukee Zoo. She walked Mushi and also gave us updates as well as pictures. I highly recommend her to watch your dog.”
“Yshonda treated my Kingsley so well and kept me informed with pictures and videos. I was able to work without anxiety knowing she was caring for my fur baby.”
“Dan and Holly watched our puppy, Roxy, for 4-5 days when we went on a trip to AZ a few weeks ago. My husband, two boys, and I knew that Roxy would be taken care of and be well loved! Of course we missed her while we were gone, but Dan and Holly are great communicators and sent pictures and messages to assure us that Roxy was doing well! Roxy LOVES spending time with Dan, Holly, and the dogs!”

“Scott was very pleasant to work with and super understanding towards Bingo being a bit sad after I left. He gave Bingo time to unwind and once Bingo got comfy they even snuggled some! Such a great experience. I would absolutely use Scott again next time im in town. Thanks for being so flexible”
About: What sets me apart is both my personal and professional experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently work at Dogtopia, where I care for and supervise dogs daily. This has helped me become patient, attentive, and comfortable working with different temperaments and energy levels. I also have experience with both senior dogs and puppies. My senior dog, Otis, had arthritis, so I learned how important patience, comfort, and attentive care are for older pets. I also helped raise and train our pug puppy with basic training, routines, and socialization. Because of these experiences, I understand that every pet has different needs depending on their age and personality, and I always try to make pets feel safe, active, and cared for like they’re my own.⭐️😊 Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work at Dogtopia, where I help maintain a safe, clean, and fun environment for dogs of all sizes and personalities. 🐾 My job has taught me the importance of paying close attention to dogs’ behavior, safety, and overall well-being throughout the day. When I’m home, I also spend a lot of time caring for my own dog. I enjoy taking him on long walks by the lake, staying active with him through runs and playtime, and making sure he gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care every day.🦮🏃♀️❤️ When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure the environment is clean and secure by checking doors, gates, food, and anything that could be unsafe or easily gotten into by curious pets.🤗 I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, energy level, and individual needs to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while their owner is away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication reminders, or simply giving them attention and companionship, I always try to make pets feel safe, cared for, and at home.

About: Having an energetic 7-year-old Australian Shepherd like my dog Roman means staying active is just a daily way of life for me.

I also have deep experience with cats, including senior and specialized care, I recently lost my beloved 17-year-old diabetic cat, so I’m very comfortable with gentle handling and strict routines.

Whether your dog needs a fast-paced walk to burn off steam, your cat needs special care/cuddles, or your bird needs an attentive check-in, I care for every pet as thoughtfully as I do my own.

“I now know why Yolanda has such great reviews! When I went to pick up my Zoe girl 🐾 I could tell that she had a great time with the family. Yolanda sent pictures and updates of my doggie and I really appreciated it! I 100% recommend her for dog sitting needs! Thank you, Yolanda!!!!”

“Absolutely a wonderful visit with Michael for my little dog, Rosie. So much attention and care was given to her. Photos and updates were provided daily. Most importantly, Rosie was given affection and gentle kind care. I can definitely recommend Michael for wonderful pet care.”
“Sarah, Dan and their girls were amazing! Badger loves children and had a ball. They provided pictures during the stay which helped calm our nerves. We noticed he was exhausted when he got home which is a good sign. We would definitely use them again.”
“Kristine took great care of our cat and dog while we were out of town. She gave us daily updates which we appreciated. Would definitely book her again.”
“Mitch was very accommodating with my last minute booking request. After a quick meet and greet, I left my 4 year old pup in good hands for an overnight stay. Mitch has a nice big fenced in yard for the dogs to play, he was very responsive with his communication and provided photo updates. Would definitely recommend.”

Thank Elizabeth and family for taking such good care of my boy soap.”
“We started with a meet n greet a week before Reptar’s first solo stay with Evita and it went really well. The fenced-in backyard is always a perk so he can be off leash and outside. During the overnight stay, Evita sent a check-in with photos to let me know how he was doing. She has also been quick to respond (we have a few more drop offs coming up)!”
“Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!”
“Zachary was great with my petsitting needs - especially given that I reached out for the first time within a week of needing the help. He fit me into his schedule for a meet n greet (which went really well), I really liked that he had a fenced in backyard. The stay was arranged for 5 days (I ended up coming back a day early and was able to pick him up early). Zachary provided updates early in the stay to let me know how my dog was settling in. Zachary was very responsive to my messages and was quick to reply. If you have a dog with separation anxiety (like mine), it was great that he lives in a house, so there were no wall neighbors (such as apartments) to worry about with any barking. If I find myself traveling for a few days again, I will definitely reach out to see if Zachary is available to watch my dog!”
“Laura took such good care of our dog, Plum, for a week while we were out of town. She sent me photo updates of Plum playing with her dog Diesel every day, and it was clear that her family was showing him so much love. I am so grateful to Laura for watching over Plum for us and being so responsive, reliable, and warm. Her house was also super close to the airport which made pick up / drop of very convenient and a safe fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in. I highly recommend booking with Laura and will do so again next time!”
“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.”
“Kim (and her husband Tom) are the best sitters. Kim is very responsive, communicative, and truly seems to enjoy all of her dog visitors. She has a fenced-in yard, and pets of her own that just go with the flow. Don't like her too much though because I want her to be available for ME! Ha!”
“Scott is a great communicator. He provided a wonderful environment for Jameson. Very attentive to our needs. Very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would recommend him to everyone who is interested in getting great care for their dogs!”
“Nylia was amazing to our dog. Nylia fed her on time, walked her when she needed, and cared for her like she was with me. Nylia is the dog babysitter you need to book. We will be booking with her again when we come back to Milwaukee.”
