“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!”

“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.”
“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!”


“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!”


“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.”

“Scott and Ashley were fantastic. Their back yard was perfect for Piper to run around in and they took fantastic care of her. They were extremely communicative as well. I look forward to Piper staying at their house again!”

“Everything was great and happy they took good care of Nia! I appreciated receiving daily photos/videos. Will definitely use them in the future.”

“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!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Nikki and her family watched my dog over the weekend and he was very well taken care of and loved being at their house! Was sent constant updates and pictures while in her care! My dog seemed extremely happy to be there and loved all the attention he got from Nikki and her family! Will 100% be booking with Nikki from now on!”


“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 🐾”

“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!”


“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.”

“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 :)”


“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”

“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.”


“Our cats enjoy having Christina come and visit! If you can win over the cats, the humans are pretty easy afterwards. Thanks again for hanging out with them!”


About: I've always owned my own cats, and helped with neighbor cats as a kid. As an adult, I own my own two cats, currently a tabby with white patches named Bella and a calico named Elly. I also am a cat cuddler and cat foster mom at HAWS and have been doing that for 8 years now. As a foster mom, I have cared for weaned kittens and done all kinds of medications. I also cared for two of my own elderly cats and did subcutaneous fluids and medications for them as well. I love socializing and caring for cats.

“Katelynn did a wonderful job watching our sweet cat while we were out of town. She was very attentive & provided wonderful updates each day. Would highly recommend!”

“I’ve had a great experience with Ana! My dogs liked her immediately during our meet and greet, and I could tell she knew her way around bigger dogs. Communication was super straightforward and fast - she even asked how often I want updates, which I really appreciate. Ramses was very relaxed when I came home after Ana’s visit. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”


About: Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me for taking care of their cats. I have also worked/volunteered in shelters providing general and medical care to cats and kittens. I know how to respect their boundaries and let them set the tone, and provide great chin or butt scratches - whichever they prefer!
About: I have a diverse experience of taking care of dogs. One of my previous jobs was working in a dog daycare/kennel where I took care of dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have been a dog walker and sitter for many years now, and have been around dogs my whole life! I currently own a mini poodle puppy! I am currently a full time student and can help walk your dog on weekends, holidays, and some odd days throughout the week. My schedule does change, so I can’t provide consistent care, but would love to help out when I can! I take dog walking very seriously, and make sure that the dog’s safety is prioritized. It make sure to be very observant of the dog’s surroundings and temperament, and will be ready to pivot whenever necessary. Communication is very important to me, so I am as prepared as possible for every situation.

“As always, Kat persevered with Frankie! Day 1, Frankie is standoffish, day 2 she hides completely but day 3, she was out with Kat the entire time! It is good to know that our sitter just continues to work on their relationship with every day and visit! We highly recommend Kat!”


“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!”

“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.”


“Kelsey was incredible. First she was extremely flexible as I changed my plans on her many times! I booked out in advance and she followed up with me beforehand. My cats love her and loved to play and be pet! She handled my entry instructions great and I felt very safe leaving my cats in her care and my apartment open to her! I met her in person as well she is so kind. I highly recommend!”


“Carolyn was easy to communicate with and was incredibly accommodating when I made a scheduling error. She took great care of my cat and kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me great peace of mind. Thank you!!”


About: Hi! have two dogs at home that I call my brothers and love them to death. My dad won't let them live with me right now so I always go home to visit and play with them. I have worked at a doggy daycare for over a year, so I do have professional experience with every type of dog. I promise I will show your dog all the love it deserves. I am currently going to school at University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and studying Biology and Zoology. After I finish school I want to transfer to University of Wisconsin-Madsion and receive my Prevet Degree. I want to help animals and care for them in my future in any way I can. I will watch over your dog like their my dog and treat them in the best possible way.
About: Growing up surrounded by animals, I’ve had the joy of caring for both dogs and cats my entire life. My experience includes everything from showing dogs in competitions to taking my cat on outdoor adventures, so I understand the unique needs of pets with different personalities and energy levels. I’m skilled in providing attentive care for all ages, from playful puppies to seniors needing extra support. Beyond walks and playtime, I’m always ready for cuddle sessions to make pets feel loved and at ease. My goal is to provide the same warmth and dedication I’d give my own animals, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and valued in my care. I’m currently a first-year medical student. I’m typically available weekday mornings and late afternoons, as well as all day on weekends, making it easy to accommodate regular walks, playtime, and any special needs your pet may have. In clients’ homes, I respect and maintain their pets' usual routines, providing a familiar environment with careful attention to each pet’s unique needs, personality, and comfort preferences. I prioritize their safety by keeping harmful items out of reach, using secure leashes and harnesses on walks, and following any specific feeding or medication instructions precisely.

“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.”


About: I grew up with dogs and cats and now have a 2 year old golden retriever that I raised as a puppy. I’ve invested a lot of time learning how to train dogs effectively so that I can best care for my own and others dogs. I work from home full time, so would love to provide day care for dogs that get along well with others and that would benefit from individual attention and another dog playmate. **I just started on Rover so that’s why I have only a few reviews. Setting prices low to get initial clients, so take advantage! Happy to talk through any questions to make sure you feel great about your pet’s care!** I work fully from home so am available for day care during the work week and some weekends. I can also do dog walks or drop ins during the work week. I’m open to overnights as well after first successfully testing out day care. I have a back yard (not fenced, but I have long leads if needed) and a large unfinished basement for play. I have a 2 year old golden retriever that is very friendly and great with all dogs.

“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.”

“Katie was ready for Brogdon when we arrived, and made drop off super easy. He didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up, so I think that’s a great sign :) Katie is easy to communicate with and clearly has lots of experience with animals. Glad we found her.”


“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!”

“Stajia is a fantastic dog sitter who took wonderful care of my energetic dog, Lulu. She is great with dogs and very friendly. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

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.
“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.”


“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: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been caring for pets for around 7 years and have experience with dogs, cats, and reptiles. I’m patient, dependable, and pay attention to each pet’s routine and personality. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet gets the love and care they deserve like they’re my own. I work from home full-time, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I don’t go out often, but I enjoy taking walks, going on jogs, and spending time in my backyard with my own pets. Since I’m home most of the time, your fur baby won’t be left alone for long and will get lots of love, care, and attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions you provide. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and make sure pets always have fresh water, attention, and a safe place to relax. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind.
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.
“Our dog had an awesome day with Louise! She was great with little Stuart and so easy to work with for us. She accommodated a long day with our schedules and is so kind. She gave our dog personal care and very loving for our needy little puppy. We plan to book with Louise again, can’t recommend her enough!”

“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.”
“I have an almost two week stay booked for my old man puggle. I wanted to do some day visits so he could get used to the changes. She said he did so well and adjusted easily. I am feeling so much more at ease about the stay!! I am so grateful that there are people like her out there.”

“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.”

“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.”

About: I grew up having three different dogs ever until I was about 13. Over the last couple years, I’ve watched, walked, and overall taken care of several dogs for friends and family. I genuinely love to be around dogs and to play. I work from home full-time so I can give your dog a good amount of attention throughout the day with breaks to play and take a necessary potty or walk. I can watch dogs currently anytime during the work week! I live in an apartment so I don’t have a yard, but the area I live in has grass near by to go to when needed. Otherwise, we do go on walks throughout the day in our apartment community to get some exercise. We hold the safety of the dogs at highest priority so making sure they don’t get into anything they aren’t suppose to and making sure that they have what they need!
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life, and own 2 of my own dogs now. I am also a licensed foster parent through the WHS, as well as seasoned pet sitter.

We have two resident dogs, who are family to us, and we are registered foster fur parents through the Wisconsin Humane Society. Our dogs enjoy playdates with friends of all sizes and so do we. We look forward to connecting! We have a fenced in yard with two friendly pups who LOVE play dates! We are ready to welcome you into our home (and yard!) as an extension of our family! To us, animals are everything!
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 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!

“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!”

“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.”
“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!”

“Scott and Ashley were fantastic. Their back yard was perfect for Piper to run around in and they took fantastic care of her. They were extremely communicative as well. I look forward to Piper staying at their house again!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Nikki and her family watched my dog over the weekend and he was very well taken care of and loved being at their house! Was sent constant updates and pictures while in her care! My dog seemed extremely happy to be there and loved all the attention he got from Nikki and her family! Will 100% be booking with Nikki from now on!”

“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!”


“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.”

“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 :)”

“Elizabeth and her family took really good care of my boy soap. They sent pics every day and updated text messages. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the care that they showed my fur baby and he had the time of his life also. I think he didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up. Thank Elizabeth and family for taking such good care of my boy soap.”


About: I grew up with dogs and cats and now have a 2 year old golden retriever that I raised as a puppy. I’ve invested a lot of time learning how to train dogs effectively so that I can best care for my own and others dogs. I work from home full time, so would love to provide day care for dogs that get along well with others and that would benefit from individual attention and another dog playmate. **I just started on Rover so that’s why I have only a few reviews. Setting prices low to get initial clients, so take advantage! Happy to talk through any questions to make sure you feel great about your pet’s care!** I work fully from home so am available for day care during the work week and some weekends. I can also do dog walks or drop ins during the work week. I’m open to overnights as well after first successfully testing out day care. I have a back yard (not fenced, but I have long leads if needed) and a large unfinished basement for play. I have a 2 year old golden retriever that is very friendly and great with all dogs.
“Mary took excellent care of Mack! She was very communicative, sending us updates, photos and videos. Mack got so much play with his new dog friends. We will definitely ask Mary to care for Mack in the future!”


“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.”


“This is the second time that Alyssa watched my dog, Rosie. Once again, she and her family were wonderful, and they gave Rosie such amazing, loving care. Thanks, Alyssa!”


“We were so nervous to leave our 5 month old puppy Harper for the first time over a long weekend, but Cindy made it very easy. We felt she was in good hands with Cindy and had so much fun with the other dogs. When Harper came home after the weekend with Cindy, she was tired out and a happy girl. We will absolutely be booking with Cindy again!”
