“Sure! Here's a thoughtful review you can leave for Ryan and Martha: --- Ryan and Martha were absolutely wonderful with Yogi! From the start, their communication was excellent — clear, prompt, and always thoughtful. They made dropoff and pickup incredibly easy and were very flexible with the timing, which we really appreciated. Throughout Yogi’s stay, they sent us regular updates and the sweetest photos that clearly showed how happy and comfortable he was. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can tell they genuinely care about animals and treat them like part of the family. We would absolutely trust them with Yogi again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and communicative pet sitters.”

“Edith was great with our puppy Artemis! We were able to meet beforehand for a short notice meet and greet before the holidays. Artemis got along really well with her two dogs and it seemed like he was having a lot of fun throughout the day- he came back exhausted and happy to see us after a couple of weeks, but we could tell that he was well taken care of. Edith sent frequent picture updates, and we felt like he was in good hands the whole time. I would definitely book Artemis here again in the future!”
“Jenny and her family did an excellent job watching Teddy and giving him the best experience during the holidays. It was even his birthday and they went above and beyond to throw a birthday party for him! We are so appreciative of how well Teddy was treated and all the photo updates were reassuring. Teddy is looking forward to his next stay! Highly recommend! 🤍”
“We had a wonderful experience! This family took excellent care of our mini goldendoodle while we were on vacation—so kind, attentive, and thoughtful. They sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us total peace of mind and showed he was happy and having fun. Highly recommend!”
“We felt Teddy was very well taken care of. He got lots of love, plenty of tennis ball throws, and sweet cuddles from Heather and her daughter. It felt great knowing Teddy was in such good hands while we were away.”
“Robert was a wonderful dog sitter. He truly loves dogs and took great care of Murphy. He took him on numerous walks every day. He kept us updated with pictures. He was always quick to reply and very accommodating. We would definitely use him again!!”
“Ms. Ivy had the best time with Michelle. She got to hangout and snuggle with the entire family. She was well taken care of and her meds were administered successfully. Ivy will be staying with Michelle’s family again in April and I know she’ll be so excited to see her new friends.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Lindsey did an excellent job of making me feel comfortable with leaving Thelma Lou in her care. From the photos she sent, to seeing Thelma Lou when I picked her up, I know my dog had a wonderful time and was treated well. I highly recommend Lindsey to anyone.”
“Jodi and her husband were amazing when our little Luna stayed with them for a week. Jodi was so great with keeping us posted every other day with pictures, messages and even a video! Their home is a dog's paradise! We truly couldn't have asked for a better place for our pup to be while we were on vacation, and we will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Gina is great! We did a meet and greet first so her and my dogs could get acquainted, and to make sure it would be safe for all. She sent me pics of my boys while I was away and I really appreciated that! She treated my boys like her own fur babies! I highly recommend Gina! 5 stars for sure!”
“Olivia was great with our senior dog. She was very responsive throughout the process, sending daily updates, which we loved receiving. I highly recommend her and will be reaching out again when I'm in need.”
“Stephanie was great! She was easy to work with, took fantastic care of our pup. Our girl wasn't sure she wanted to leave. She sent lots of pictures and provided a fun and active environment. Would highly recommend!”

“Krista has been great with our cats! They both love when she visits. They have very different personalities, so the fact that they've both warmed up to her in a short time shows that Krista is really skilled at providing care for cats in ways that make them comfortable”
“Austin was great! He came over and met the cats before he took the job and we discussed any concerns we have. He gave us pictures of the kitties every time he took care of the cats, played with our youngest kitty every time, and was very understanding when we got the dates of our trip wrong. He even took in the recycling container that we left out and a giant Chewy box (which we were not expecting!). Will definitely consider hiring Austin again in the future if needed! :)”
“Pamela was very responsive and friendly! She came over beforehand for a meet and greet. She also sent a nice summary and pictures each day. I would highly recommend her!”

“Janay is incredible! She was attentive and communicative and truly went above and beyond in taking care of my cats. Her integrity is especially commendable, as she was able to fulfill our contract despite a personal emergency on her part. I would recommend her to anyone and will absolutely be booking with her again.”
“First time using Rover and Ann for my 2 cats. A great experience! Ann was fantastic and helped me feel comfortable leaving my cats for 2 weeks. They were well taken care of. She even made it here during a bad snow storm! Will definitely use Ann again!”
“Natalie was great! She's super responsive and made me feel at ease leaving my cat for the first time. The Rover Card summaries were nice and made me feel comfortable knowing how my cat was doing. I will definitely be rebooking with her.”
“I had the best vacation knowing my fur babies were in great hands . Jess was amazing with them . I couldn’t ask for a better sitter . She’s great ! I will hire her again and again !!”
“Absolutely fantastic experience with Mandi and delighted she was able to take our booking. Mandi came for a meet-and-greet in advance of the booking to review details and get acquainted with our home, our cat, and his care. He was much more relaxed and comfortable when we returned than when we've picked him up from boarding in the past; at his advanced age, that means so much! We're looking forward to our next booking with Mandi!”
“Annalise did a great job taking care of my cat Gus! She was consistent in the time she came to feed him and even added an extra visit when our travel plans changed!”
“Awesome experience with Michelle. Excellent communication, plenty of photos and good care of our animals. We give Michelle a 10 star. Highly recommend. We will contract her again. Thank you!”
“Emily is awesome. She took care of my Curry Boi and Chickpea. She fed them and took pictures for peace of mind . You can tell she really cares about them . Thanks Emily for all you do !!”
“Cilyl is a great sitter, for pets and for house. She was able to interact with our timid cats, and her reports made me laugh and left me certain she cared for my cats and their well being. She also took care of our plants and mail/packages. She is reliable, personable and I strongly recommend her!”

“Martha is so great, she accommodated us last minute which was so helpful! She sent update pictures which I really appreciate! Uma was in great care and had fun with her boys. They took her for walks and played with her. I’d recommend Martha and her family :)”
“Gen is great and super reliable 🥰! She watches our 2 younger ones (because the one is destructive and the other one has anxiety™️️) and they are always tired at the end of the day 😊. I would absolutely recommend Gen.”
“Kristin and Bruce provided exceptional daycare services. My senior dog initially had anxiety being in a different home. Kristen and Bruce were very attentive and made her feel comfortable.”
“Jenny and Darin were great! They provided updates throughout the day and took great care of our slightly anxious puppy :) Will definitely book with them again!”

“Nelly had a great time with Priyanka! Sometimes Nelly is timid in new situations but she seemed comfortable with Pri right away. We appreciated receiving some cute pictures of the fun times she was having, with walks and cuddles and lots of attention. We will definitely rebook with Pri the next time Nelly needs day care or boarding!”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with Marley’s experience with Joyce. Joyce was very good about sending photos that really reassured us that Marley was getting along nicely. Marley was so well-cared for and had such a good time! In fact, Marley laid down outside the car, as we tried to leave, as if to say, “Aw gee, do we have to go home already?””
“Julie did great job making me and my dog Stella Watson very comfortable from meet and greet thru 1st daycare visit. Stella had wonderful time playing with Zilla and zooming around the yard and house. Will be hoping to visit again soon!”
About: I am a previous dog owner and current cat mom. I grew up watching dog and cat training shows on TV and going to in person purebred dog and cat show events. I enjoy spending my time with furry friends. I'm a in-home caregiver to my mom so I have lots of time to take care of your pet. I have weekly events on Sundays and Wednesdays, but can easily work around those times. I have a long line for when your pet is outside and lots of patio seating to supervise and play with your pet the whole time. I also have a crate for indoor use.
About: My love for animals started as a child going to dog shows and pet sitting for friends. I love watching shows like Caesar Milan and PitBulls and Parolees. Over the years, I have owned multiple cats with varying personalities and temperaments, petsat, and walked all sizes of dogs from chihuahuas to Irish wolfhounds. Also, I have worked with aggressive or easily overexcited breeds. If your pet is like this, just let me know and I will do my best to care for them. I decided to become a professional on Rover because I am passionate about animals and enjoy every minute with them. It also provides me with the flexible hours I need to care for my young daughters. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! I am currently a full time mom, but have plenty of time to play with, walk, and care for your fur babies while my girls are in school. I am available after 8:30 am for drop ins or walks. For boarding I am able to keep overnight. I have a large, fenced yard for dogs to run, play, and do their business. I can keep pets separated upstairs and downstairs if needed. I am very respectful of other's personal property if you need me to care for your pets in your own home.
“Brenda and her girls are dog whispers. They collected our dog, who has bad separation anxiety and he instantly warmed to them, which never happens! They shared lots of photos of him too! When they dropped him off, he was in a happy playful mood, so we knew he had a great time!”
“Fast response, super friendly. Taylor was able to take our pup at short notice so we could have a family outing and not worry about the dog. He played all day and had a great time.”
About: Former full-time human medical provider of 18 years; now available for pup sitting. Takes frequent walks with the neighborhood dog pack. Owner of one special dog named Tennessee. I’m free to organize my schedule between pet sitting and working on my business. Currently available most days until July 20th! Will update calendar when I know more. I like routine. I think pets appreciate kibble and potty breaks on a familiar schedule. I will honor your wishes for care, play, walks, and socializing.
“Robert is super nice and very communicative. We also appreciated his accommodating a last minute date change due to weather conditions. Our dog Ace had a great day!”
“Perfect. My pup went into Christina and Jeremy's house a little nervous and came out wagging. Christina and Jeremy were well set up, easy to work with and clearly like dogs. My guy will be back!”
“Holly was very receptive to caring for our dog on short notice when we had to be in Madison for a family member’s hospitalization. The home, fenced in yard, companionship of their dog Mocha was wonderful for our little guy. I could tell he was exercised and loved while in her care.”

“Sara has been the most fabulous dog walker. Our dog Captain loves his walks with her and is always so happy. She is dependable and goes the extra mile (even in the cold weather!)”
“Austin did a great job walking Carmello. He responded to a last minute booking and I couldn’t have been more happy with his services. Have already booked him again and hopefully more in the future.”
“Pam is amazing with my dog Mila! She is quick to respond and flexible, which I really appreciate as my schedule varies week to week. Mila runs to the door every time she gets here. I can’t say enough positive things about our experience working with her.”
“Michelle did an excellent job. When we first met, she took notes about my requests. She followed my directions precisely and took excellent care of Myla. I received updates before, during, and after Myla's walk and she left very thorough notes on the visit card. I highly recommend Michelle.”
“Victor always does a great job with my little Buddy. Sometimes I am nervous about how my dog might react around a new person, but Victor has been amazing and Buddy loves when he visits. Definitely recommend!”
About: Hi! I’ve always had a huge love for animals and honestly can’t imagine life without them. I worked at PetSmart for 3 years as a Pet Care Associate, where I cared for all kinds of animals — from dogs and bunnies to lizards and other small pets. That experience taught me so much about animal behavior, patience, and making pets feel comfortable and cared for. I also know the doggy Heimlich maneuver, so your pet’s safety is always something I take seriously. I grew up surrounded by pets and now have two of my own as an adult, so I completely understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm comforting presence, I’ll always treat them like one of my own ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle because animals are truly what I love spending my time around 🐾 I work 8–4 in Wisconsin Dells, and outside of work, caring for animals is honestly my favorite way to spend my free time. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping pets company, it never feels like a chore to me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy ❤️ I’ve always grown up with pets and currently have two of my own, so caring for animals has always been part of my daily life. I love creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away 🐶🐱 When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s home—I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and sticking closely to their normal routine 🐾 In my own home, I care for my two pets daily by making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, playtime, walks when needed, and a calm, clean environment. I really treat them like part of my family, and their well-being is a big part of my everyday life. When caring for a client’s pets, I bring that same level of care and consistency. I follow instructions closely, maintain feeding and potty routines, give lots of love and attention based on each pet’s personality, and always prioritize safety. I also pay attention to behavior and comfort so pets feel as relaxed as possible while their owners are away. With my experience working at PetSmart and years of caring for animals in both personal and professional settings, I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds and always aim to make them feel secure, loved, and at home!
“Jordan is an amazing dog walker! My dog loves him. He is reliable and really considerate of the dog’s walking experience. He gets to know the dog and what the dog needs. Every time my dog returned she was calm, happy and had a big goofy grin on her face. We had difficult weather during the week he walked her and he was great about communicating with me to work around the weather and make sure she had a great walk. I highly recommend him!”
“Joseph is great with our AmStaff. The basics of timely and great communication definitely met. But then way above and beyond in his care and exercise of a high energy 5 year old Staffie. Koda is is noticeably and positively impacted by the days Joseph visits. Strongly recommend!!!”
“I’m so thankful to have Allegra as a dog walker- she is a rock star! I feel so safe with her care with the dogs, and she always has great feedback after every walk.”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, from very young to end of life care. Taking care of animals and bonding with them is such a special thing, and I would love to help aid dogs lives through proper exercise! Going into college in the fall and will have a part time job soon; I have plenty of free time to work around with and will be very flexible with my schedule. I currently have one cat (around 3) and one dog (around 10) who I love very much. My dog is getting a little too old to go on longer walks with me so I think this will be a great opportunity to help younger dogs get that exercise in. I’m very easy to talk to and flexible and would be happy to make sure your animal has water after the walk/ a treat and will provide doggy bags for bathroom needs.
“Highly recommend! Jiayi took the time to learn my dog and provide great care for her. My dog was able to relax and unwind with her and I had peace of mind knowing she was being cared for. Jiayi also does a great job with communication.”
About: I’m a passionate dog lover who believes pets are family. As a dog owner for over four years, I understand the care, attention, and love our furry friends need every day. Whether you need help with walks or companionship for your pet, I’m committed to providing reliable and caring support. I love dogs of all sizes and personalities and look forward to helping keep your pet happy, safe, and active! While I am looking for a new full time job, I have a lot of availability for anyone needing some help. Would be open to daily walks or as needed. I would care for any pet like they are my own! I am extremely protective of my dog and would only want the best for her and I would offer the same level of care for your pet, too!
About: I’ve cared for my dog for 10+ years, have experience dog sitting and overnight stays, and love staying active by giving dogs plenty of walks, exercise, and attention. Pet care fits well into my routine because I only work nights, leaving me available during the day for walks, check-ins, playtime, feeding, and overnight pet sitting. I care for pets by following their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. In clients’ homes, I provide feeding, walks, playtime, overnight care, and lots of attention while keeping the home clean and respectful. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, affection, and consistent care while their owners are away.
About: Hi! I'm Jen and I'm a self-professed animal lover! Cats and dogs are a big part of my life. My family always used in-home pet sitting for our dogs, a couple of whom were traumatized and required a little more comfort than most. I understand how it can be hard to leave a dog in a kennel or an unfamiliar home. That's where I come in! Let me pamper your fur baby and put your mind at ease. I am an elementary school teacher on summer break, so I have pretty wide-open availability for the season. I craft heavily when I'm not working, but that can always be paused to attend to pets :) I believe in respect for animals first and foremost! Reading their body language and listening to their cues is crucial. I also believe in trusting owners’ advice about their pets since you know your fur baby best!
“Mac really loved his walks with Sean and Sean was very understanding of Mac’s history and responsive issues. He took a lot of fun photos, and went above and beyond getting him ready for the walks when we were out of town.”
About: I have experience working at Paw Pals taking care of cats and dogs. I have also raised and cared for hamsters, horses, birds and bunnys. I'm currently working part-time to only care for animals so I have plenty of time for your animals! Let me know when you need me and I will be there! They will get the time they need. ❤️ Your pet will have the whole downstairs to themselves and lots of play space. I have two friendly cats that are willing to be friends with your pets but they will be upstairs. There are multiple grassy areas to run around in around my condo and trails to walk your pet that will allow them to play in. Treats treats treats❣️

“Laura welcomed our Barley into her home with open arms. She allowed us to come with Barley and check things out before having Barley stay with her.

I was also absolutely thrilled with the dog play area where Zeus could dig and really enjoy his time. It truly felt like Zeus was on a little vacation 😊 Thank you so much! We’ll definitely be back.”
“Finny had a blast! I got updates every day and I could see how happy and content he was while I was on vacation. I was very comfortable knowing he was safe and having a great time, and when he got home he was good and tired. Thank you so much! I would be super happy to bring him back and would highly recommend.”
