“David did an absolutely wonderful job with watching our Willow. Even with it being a holiday he did except Willow for boarding for 9 days. He even took her to his Grandmas house for Christmas.

“5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!”
“Katy & DJ are wonderful. They gave lots of updates. Princess was very comfortable with them and had a great time. I would definitely recommend them if you need a reliable and caring family to watch your fur baby.”

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

“Erik and his family were able to accommodate my last minute overnight dog sitting request. My dogs were so excited to greet their family. They were so kind and welcoming to me as well. They have a lovely fenced yard that my dogs just loved. I will absolutely be using them again.”
“Ginny was great to our fur baby! She kept our dog happy, active and spoiled. She often sent photos and reports on how he was doing. I definitely recommend Ginny for pet boarding service!”

We received pictures of our ladies several times, which brightened our day and helped us feel at ease when we were away. They were very attentive to the different food and medication needs our ladies have. We will definitely use them again for future boarding.”
“Micah was fantastic! Kepler was well taken care of and had a very exciting stay playing with her dogs Teddy and Echo. Micah is very loving and created a very welcoming and fun environment for our pet/baby. We will definitely use her again.”

“Bella did a terrific job caring for our 4 cats. She took time to play with them, and gave us extra details about how they were doing. She was reliable and left everything neat and tidy. I had to change my schedule at the last minute due to illness, and she was flexible and understanding. We would highly recommend Bella to care for your fur babies when you're away!”
About: Although I dont own cats of my own, ive cared for many in my life. I love cats and would love to offer them a comfy spot in my home or I can come to you for daily or weekly check ins.
“Sadie did a great job! It was our first pet sitting venture, and my first time with Rover, which is always a bit nerve-wracking with our fur babies. But I was very pleased, and she tolerated, understood and followed my detailed instructions well. Thanks, Sadie and Rover! I'll definitely have you back!”
“We had such a great experience with Aubrey! Before we ever left, she took the time to come over and meet our cats, which meant so much to us. She asked thoughtful questions, paid attention to their personalities, and made sure she understood their routines and preferences. It immediately put us at ease knowing she cared enough to build that connection ahead of time. Our cats were comfortable and well cared for, and it was clear they recognized her when she came back. We truly appreciated the extra effort and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate cat sitter.”
“Shannon was a great pet sitter for our 2 cats. She always replied with photos of each visit and even went above and beyond by cleaning out the litter box. I would highly recommend using her services for your pets needs.”
“Absolutely perfect! Really great sitter, took perfect care of my cat! Did everything asked, and sent prenty of pictures and updates. Also a very kind and communicative person!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was young. I’ve walked, fed, bathed, helped train, and overall cared for animals. I have had experience with kittens/puppies and senior animals! I have watched family and friends dogs! I work part-time and my schedule is often different, but I am always free after 7 pm weekdays and 6 pm weekends. I am open to other times as well as long as I don’t work! I do not offer animals in my home due to having my own cats. Only dog and cat sitting at the clients house! Thank you
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.
“Another wonderful weekend away knowing my fur baby is so loved and cared for. Thank you Ning! As usual, thank you for sending all the photo updates. It’s so reassuring knowing he is having fun.”
“Katie was amazing with our 2 cats! They came out to greet her each time she stopped by and she was extremely attentive, respectful, and responsive. Katie was there when she said she would be and provided top-notch feedback/updates. It was our first time using a sitter that wasn’t a friend or family and we were so happy we went with her! Absolutely will be contacting Katie again for future needs!”
“Deedee is wonderful! Our cat is usually very shy and hides but she came out and got her meds and treats. I had no worries with Deedee taking care of our girl and highly recommend her services!!!!”
About: I have taken care of pets for a majority of my life. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, care for, and play with their pets in many instances. Growing up I also owned my own dog that I would care for. Spending time with animals brings me joy and I treat them all with endless love! I am currently a college student majoring in nursing and I am looking for another side job in addition to my CNA job. I love all animals and think this is the perfect opportunity. I live in a quiet community with plenty of area to walk the dogs. I can also easily kennel dogs if necessary. I do not have any other animals in the home.
“Rosalina was absolutely amazing with my cats while I was away—I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the start, she was super communicative, reliable, and flexible. I have two cats in my “zoo” and she took such great care of them! She made sure they were fed, happy, and stuck to their routine. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. She also kept me updated while I was gone, which I really appreciated. Being away is always a little stressful, but knowing they were in such good hands made it that much easier! Rosalina also went above and beyond by helping with my snake’s bioactive enclosure and keeping up with watering to maintain the environment, which I really appreciated. I came home to two very happy, well-loved cats, a thriving bioactive enclosure, and everything was exactly how I left it. Truly the best feeling! I would 100% book with Rosalina again! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and just overall wonderful with animals. Anubis and Neffy definitely approve 🐾”
About: I recently adopted my first cat since having my childhood cat and she has reignited my passion for cats! I feel very comfortable taking care of a wide variety of animals including those that require medication administration or other medical needs, cats that require lots of snuggles, or those that prefer their space.
About: I have had pets all my life. I have 5 of my own dogs of various shape and size and foster for a couple different rescues! I am very flexible, I'm available most of the time and love to meet new pets. I try to fit the needs of pet owners where I can. I don’t plan on doing any home care. I have 5 dogs of my own and also foster. This just isn’t possible at this time.

About: Agnes Mable, my dachshund of 12 years taught me patience better than anyone. I love spending time cuddling, giving belly rubs, sniffling frito feet, & running around the yard chasing them like a screaming banshee. I stay at friends & neighbors houses frequently when they're away to watch their dogs, cats, & fish. I also have friends & neighbors dogs over for weeks at a time. I've been doing this the since moving back to Wisconsin in April 2024. I love taking care of pets like their my own. Once I have a fenced in yard, I will welcome another dachshund into my life, but until then I fill my cup with caring for other's doggos & kitty cats. I'm excited to meet you! Extra treats for pugs & extra belly rubs for the heavy weights that can fetch & return! I work from home & the days I'm traveling for work will be unavailable to book. We'll spend all day together! I've got a spacious yard, large back deck that gets direct sun light for the one's that like to bake, & if they get along with other dogs, sometimes I walk over to my sisters with them to meet my favorite pug, Potato! I live in a duplex on the bottom floor so it's easy in & out, no stairs. My yard is massive with lots of plants & trees to sniff around. I'll always take my fur friends outside on a leash. I do have a small crate available for dogs under 15 pounds, toys, treats, & extra leashes just in case you forget something. Most importantly, I have a big lamby & a small lamby.

About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life and I've had my first (adult life) dog for three and a half year. Wila Rose is an Australian Cattle Dog mix. About a year and a half ago we added another rescue, Buckley Quinn. He is a smart but goofy boy. They both go backpacking with us and we do a lot of hiking on our local public land areas. We enjoy playing around in our yard with our limited dog agility set and learning new tricks. We occasionally go swimming but love jumping and exploring new water areas and hiking trails. Wila and Buckley are a huge part of my life. We enjoy hiking, being outdoor, and traveling as much as possible. We do quite a but of training included but not limited to: agility, scent training, shed training, and just some fun party tricks. I am new to Rover so please feel free to reach out with any questions. I have an acre of land (not fenced in). We love to go on walks and sniffaris at our local parks. Buckley loved to play with other dogs and Wila is more of a people dog. They even loves to go backpacking and hiking which often include 10+ miles a day.
About: I have always had a dog growing up, so I learned from a very young age how to care for a pet. Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their dogs since I was around 12 years old. This includes stopping in the house to take them to the bathroom and feeding them, as well as giving medication if needed. Lots of snuggles and playtime too of course! I have taken care of dogs in the client's home for up to a week and cared for them at my home as well. No need to worry about any complex feeding schedules. I can manage it all. I am very comfortable with any age, breed, and sized dog! I have a one-year-old pup, so I am very familiar with training and puppy classes. I have volunteered at the humane society and when I was in high school, I job shadowed at a veterinary clinic. I currently work as a substitute teacher so my schedule is extremely flexible! During the summer months I am completely open. Weekdays and weekends any time of day. I make my own schedule so there will be no conflicts. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for some off leash playtime! My dog loves to run around playing fetch with a ball or stick. I have a walking path across the street from my home and am walking distance to nature hill for some extra exercise. I always have water, waste bags and small treats with me when going on walks. (My dogs personal favorites are cheerios). I am comfortable walking with any leash, collar or harness. I have two kennels in my living room if your dog needs to be crated. At least one crate is big enough to fit a large or XL dog. I have a baby gate in front of my stairs, and the basement door is always shut. I personally love going to the pet store or drive thru to get my pet a pup cup! I would be more than happy to take your dog for an adventure and for some extra love and enrichment!

About: I have been around pets my whole life. Whether it was my family pet or a friend's I've grown up around dogs my whole life. Being allergic to cats, dogs were my only option. I currently have trained my own pup from the age of 7 1/2 weeks till now as well as helped friends in the past with their own dogs. So I am fairly proficient at training pups. I unfortunately don't have much experience with senior dogs but I would love to expand my skills. I am currently a stay at home mom to a wonderful 1 year old little girl. So short of errands I am always at home. Perfect for pets who cant be left alone for long periods of time. Our home has a very nice unfenced in yard. We do have long leads that will be utilized for bathroom breaks and outdoor play time. We also live about a mile from a very nice open dog park that with permission will be the perfect place for high energy running. All dogs will be supervised while outside and will also have my two pups to play with as well. Toys will also be available for all to play with. Kennels will be utilized when needed (kennels will need to be provided by the pet parents)
“We felt so comfortable leaving our puppy with Maura, she was in great hands and was showered with so much love the entire time she was there. We are so thankful we found her!”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with our little sweet pup. He had a walk, breaks, fun with his ball. Heather was extremely accommodating and flexible. Once you meet her, she outs you at immediate ease. Will happily use her again!”
“Sarah took my dog, Ida, at the least minute for daycare this week. I received regular updates and photos, and my mind was at ease the entire time. Ida had a great time with Sarah, her husband, and her dog! They made sure she got outside every few hours and kept track of how much she ate and used the potty the whole time. They were very conscious of her allergies as well. I will definitely book again!”
About: I genuine care and give attention to every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies who are still learning routines, including basic training and potty schedules, and I’m also gentle and mindful with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra comfort. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I currently work only 2 days out of the week, but my schedule is very flexible, and can switch days if need be! Will accommodate I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable and follow the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention so pets feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and make sure pets stay on their normal schedule. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and any special instructions from the owner to make sure they feel happy and cared for.
About: I have taken care of my own pets, as well as many others in my home. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me with their loved pets! I am currently working part time and mostly from home. I am in school part time from home as well, so I can be with your pet the entire time. I have a fenced in yard and only 1 dog myself. I can walk dogs. I can crate them if needed.

“Brandi was great with my 3 dogs. She was on time. Was able to meet the dogs and I before the first day. There was an issue with the neighbors dog jumping my fence when she was out with my 3 dogs. She handled the situation very well! She sent me a lot of pictures also! I would have Brandi come back and take care of my dogs again!.”

About: I've had dogs my whole life! Most have been middle size dogs - lab mixes, etc. I have experience with taking care of all size of pets though.I also walked dogs at a local humane society until I adopted my own bundle of joy! I have dog sat for all different sizes and types of dogs and genuinely enjoy being around them. Like I said above - I sometimes prefer dogs over people haha! I would love to get back into walking and socializing dogs looking for good homes! I love being able to help them find new homes! I just have a connection with dogs and love being around them! I currently work during the day but am free nights and weekends and would love to meet your member(s) of the family! :)
About: Hi! I’m a college student at the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point and a huge animal lover. I currently work in a doggy daycare and pet boarding facility, so caring for animals is something I do every day—not just as a hobby, but as a job I genuinely love.I have hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments through my job in doggy daycare and boarding. This means I’m comfortable with: Handling multiple dogs at once Reading dog behavior and body language Managing high-energy and shy/anxious dogs Feeding routines and administering basic care I also come from a family farm, so I’ve been around animals my whole life and am used to responsibility, early mornings, and consistent care. I currently work part time as a CNA in Stevens Point. I’m looking for the opportunity to spend more time with animals whenever I can, as they are such a big part of my life. Personally, sitting in the clients home would work best for me, as I am a college student living with a few other roommates, which can be difficult for having pets here :)

“Ellen was a great host for our sheepdog! Communication was excellent from start to finish. She sent pictures and video so we knew that Lucy was enjoying her time. Big fenced in backyard was a bonus. Highly recommend.”
“David did an absolutely wonderful job with watching our Willow. Even with it being a holiday he did except Willow for boarding for 9 days. He even took her to his Grandmas house for Christmas. He sent day by day pics and text messages. Willow made new people friends and doggy friends. I will definitely use David for my boarding needs if ever I need one again. Thank you David Dawn Reeves”

“Katy & DJ are wonderful. They gave lots of updates. Princess was very comfortable with them and had a great time. I would definitely recommend them if you need a reliable and caring family to watch your fur baby.”
“Val was such an amazing host! He treated our dog, Bella, like one of the family. I even got a super cute picture of Bella, and she looked so happy! We can't wait to book with Val again!”
“Wenzell did a phenomenal job taking care of our two pups!! We got photos daily and the dogs seemed to always get a ton of attention. Our dogs were treated like a part of their family. I would highly recommend Wenzell to any family and friends. Thank you so much again for everything!”
“We were swayed to contact Erika for our dog caregiver by her glowing reviews on Rover. Throughout our communications with Erika through Rover prior to our vacation, and upon meeting her when we dropped our dogs off with her, she was warm, kind, and a very professional young lady. We were impressed by her and the wonderful habitat that our pups would call home for the next two weeks. Our dogs need exercise, and she excelled in that. One of our dogs even lost weight. We will return to Erika for future needs, and rest easy that our dogs are in the best hands!”
“Cheryl and Josh were great with our dog, Goldie. She got a lot of walks and we know she got a lot of attention and love. She came home exhausted. 😅 We will definitely trust Cheryl and Josh again for future dog watching!”
“Jessica is the best sitter I have ever had on Rover!!! She took great care of my Mickey and provided lots of updates throughout each day. Will definitely book with her again, my dog had a great time with her and her dogs!!”
“Meghan and her family are absolutely AMAZING!! We did an extended stay and it was our first time using Rover ~ daily updates, pictures.. she and her family took great care of pup while we were away. We will definitely be rebooking with her :)”
“Ginny was great to our fur baby! She kept our dog happy, active and spoiled. She often sent photos and reports on how he was doing. I definitely recommend Ginny for pet boarding service!”
“Micah was fantastic! Kepler was well taken care of and had a very exciting stay playing with her dogs Teddy and Echo. Micah is very loving and created a very welcoming and fun environment for our pet/baby. We will definitely use her again.”
“Anna and her family are always super accommodating. I don’t think I’ll use anyone else unless she is unavailable. They treated my dog like their own. I was a little worried he wouldn’t come home because they loved him so much. She even sent him home with treats. Anna is truly the best!”
“Jenifer was a caring sitter for Tipper. Tipper was happy with her even though she missed us. Jennifer did her best to get Tipper to eat including sharing treats with her. Thank you.”
“Duane and Lauren were wonderful to work with and took great care of our two dogs!!! Their communication was terrific and they were very flexible. We would love to have our dogs stay with them again!!”
“Amber was amazing! Her and her family helped take great care of my 3 month old pup for a few days while we were in the process of moving. She was super accommodating and helpful, taking him in just hours after us contacting her very last minute while stressed trying to figure out what to do with him. Taking in his “puppy shenanigans” and all like he was one of her own. Amber made sure to keep me updated about how his was doing helping to ease my mind of having him away from home for the first time. Sending me pictures/videos and messages about how his day was going. She also took the time to make sure that my pup was comfortable and entertained. Taking him on walks and being able to run around and play in the yard. Letting him go at his own pace and doing what made him feel safe when he didn’t like the rain or was was scared by her dog at first (he wasn’t the biggest one around anymore and couldn’t terrorize/annoy every living thing like he normally likes to do). She even went the extra mile to wash his bed after an accident over night and have him and all of his stuff packed up nicely and ready to go for me when I got there. My little boy loved playing with her and her family. And having the other dogs around for him to interact with was a bonus. When I tell you he was so excited when he first met them that I didn’t even get a second look over the shoulder or a goodbye before he took off to play with one of the kids ? (I’m still emotionally processing his betrayal ?). I could not recommend Amber enough! Your pet will be greatly taken care of (Not to mention worn out….he’s been napping since the moment we put him in the car) and all of your worries will fade the moment you get there.”
