She welcomed my fur baby into her home and loved him like her own. She did an amazing job keeping him in his daily routine. This was the first time he has stayed with anyone other than family and I could not be happier. The daily updates and photos helped me enjoy my vacation knowing he was in great hands!

Thank you Mike for all the daily pictures - she looked like she was having fun!”

About: Hello fellow cat lovers! Cats and their people have always been happy with my patience, clear communication, and cleanliness. I am confident that I can maintain a comfortable setting for your feline friends! I been the grateful owner of two housecats: Holly and Mr. Kitty. Holly passed away and Mr. Kitty moved to the family farm where he can play outside more. I grew up on a Wisconsin dairy farm with two dogs and a large family of barn cats. We were all very close and I've always had a deep and healthy connection with animals.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, which led me to study veterinary technology at the University of Wisconsin River Falls. Recently, I’ve worked full time in both primary and emergency veterinary clinics, gaining hands-on experience in roles ranging from receptionist to veterinary assistant. This background has given me a strong understanding of feline health, behavior, and safety. I’m comfortable working with all types of cats whether they’re social, shy, anxious, independent, or reactive. I have experience caring for cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I’m experienced in administering medications, including pills, liquids, and injections, and through my work in veterinary clinics and caring for my pets at home. I’ve gained valuable insight into caring for cats with medical conditions such as diabetes and kidney disease, always focusing on providing attentive and individualized care. I’ve also worked with multi-cat households and understand that each cat has their own personality and boundaries; from personal experience with my own cats who didn’t always get along, I’ve learned how to manage tensions and create a calm environment. Additionally, I’m well versed in handling litter box issues and behavioral concerns, while always recognizing when something may require veterinary attention. My goal is to make sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Absolutely wonderful experience! Karen was so kind and welcoming to our very energetic pup! She has great attention to detail and took the time to truly get to know our dog and his unique personality and needs. Getting updates and pictures of our dog having the time of his life with Karen and her family made us feel so at ease knowing that he was in great, loving hands. We will definitely be reaching out to Karen in the future and our pup can’t wait to go back! ☺️❤️”
“This was the first time we used Rover. We left Gunner for a daycare day to start. Carolyn and Kristopher were great with Gunner. Carolyn wrote down all the details of Gunner’s normal routine and his particular needs. He came home very tired which was a win. We will be using them again in February for a longer stay. So thankful we found such wonderful people to leave him with.”
“I used Mike's doggy daycare services and was very happy, but most importantly my labradoodle Doug loves spending time there! Mike is very good with the dogs. They are very calm and happy in his care. Doug got plenty of play time, and returned home content and ready for a nap. I also loved getting the photos and videos throughout the day. I will definitely be using Mike's services again!”
“Caleb is amazing. He took the time to put together an activity list for our puppy, made sure he had multiple forms of mental stimulation (lick pads, puzzles), and ensured plenty of exercise. Caleb gave us a gift of our own lick pad, so very thoughtful. We will be back for more doggy day care.”
“Excellent service! Lorena was extremely warm and attentive with our puppy, who is only 11 weeks old. We felt at peace leaving our furry baby with her. She is also very knowledgeable about puppy development and gave us the requested tips. Will definitely request her services again.”

We absolutely love and adore animals—especially dogs. 🤍 We recently lost our beloved Morkie, Brooklynn, unexpectedly due to kidney failure in August. She meant the world to us, and we miss her dearly. While we’re not quite ready to welcome another dog of our own just yet, we would love to share our hearts and home by caring for your pet. With 13 years of having had our own Morkie, we care for every dog like our own, offering gentle care, plenty of snuggles and lots of love — so your pup feels safe and happy!

Our evenings are quiet, and we only list availability when we’re fully present—because your dog deserves our full attention. We have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely roam, play, go to the bathroom and enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise. We can also bring your dog on walks, if desired.
“Giovana and her family were so wonderful with Skye. I couldn’t have asked for a better puppy sitter. Thank you so much for treating Skye like he was part of your family. If I need a sitter again, hopefully you are available. 😁”
“Kelly has been great with Coco! Because she has other dogs, Coco had the opportunity to socialize and have a ton of playtime. When I would pick her up in the evenings, she was so mellow which is saying a lot for an energetic puppy. Kelly kept me updated with pics of Coco throughout the day. We will definitely use her again!”
“Our dog Aggie had a great time with Julie! When we booked, she asked if Aggie would be ok having another dog around. We said Yes and the two Cockapoos had a wonderful day together. We appreciated Julie being willing to take on a second dog since we were asking last minute.”

I tailor my time with each pet based on their needs to make sure they feel comfortable and fully cared for. I believe that care should be based of each pet or families needs. I plan to try and keep the pets routine as similar to what they have now as possible. I don’t want them to be confused. I would prefer to go based off the pets needs. Whether walking for 30 mins or giving medications and snuggling. I am willing to even take your canine to a dog park of choice as long as I had selected papers for vaccine information.
About: I've had pets (dogs of all sizes, cats, fish) since I was 7. I currently have a dog of my own. I've trained her. I am always happy to watch, play, feed, bathe, and walk dogs. I am a stay-at-home dog owner, which means taking care of your dog is my main priority! Doggy day care and boarding is always available. I usually accept all dogs. I only refuse service if the dog has previously bit me and/or continued aggression. I have one very friendly female dog (spayed) who loves to make new friends and spend time with old ones. I keep dogs typically in the living area, uncaged. I only cage dogs if the owner requests it, and in a different room from the other dogs. I do have another helper (my fiance), as he also enjoys dogs very much. My walking route is usually around Glen Park, I change it up as needed to boost the adventure for your dog(s). **Water will ALWAYS be available and replenished for your dog(s). Food schedule based.**
About: I would love to take care of your fur baby🐶🐾 I truly believe our pets are our family, and they deserve to be treated with patience, love, and attention. I’ve grown up with huskies and understand their energy, intelligence, and big personalities. I had a husky growing up, and now I rescued one of my own — so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, structure, and staying active. I’m also a foster mom, which has given me experience with dogs of different temperaments, backgrounds, and needs. Caring for foster dogs has taught me patience, adaptability, and how important it is to make every dog feel safe and comfortable. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs — from small Yorkie/Shih Tzus to big Labs. I’m comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also have experience administering medications, including oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, and other basic care needs. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in capable and attentive hands. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my routine! I currently work in the service industry, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule. My usual days off are Wednesdays and Thursdays, which allows for extended availability those days. On most other days, I’m available for morning walks and check-ins if you reach out in advance. Since I already have an active routine with my own dog, adding walks and care for your pup fits in perfectly. I’m happy to communicate and coordinate to find times that work best for both of us! 🐾 I treat every pet like they’re part of my family, with care, respect, and plenty of love. My husky has gone through several training courses, so I’m used to teaching commands, helping with training, and teaching new tricks when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I create a calm and positive environment, supervise them closely, and adapt to each pet’s personality. You can trust that your furry family member will be in loving hands! 🐾
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember—everything from energetic Labs to laid-back Basset Hounds, plus a rescue puppy that I personally helped train and grow into a well-behaved companion. That hands-on experience has taught me how to understand different temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. From basic training and leash manners to patience with shy or stubborn pups, I’ve learned that every dog is unique and deserves personalized attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy building trust and creating a positive, fun experience for them every time we’re together. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long adventure walk, or just some extra love while you’re busy, I treat every walk like it matters—because it does. I tailor each visit to your dog’s personality, pace, and needs, making sure they feel safe, stimulated, and happy every step of the way. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in caring, responsible hands. From playful pups to senior sweethearts, I’m experienced, attentive, and ready to keep tails wagging. Full time job but available in the evenings and weekends to take care of your furry friends, whether that’s a potty break or a walk on my way home from work, or hanging out all weekend! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication, or any specific habits your pet is used to. During visits, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, not just the basics. I keep their environment clean, refresh water bowls, and make sure they’re safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also mindful of your home, treating it with respect and keeping everything just as I found it.
About: Hey, my name is Summer. I’m double majoring at UW River falls to become a vet tech and major in animal science. I’ve worked at a boarding and training facility for 9 years of all animals horses, dogs, cats. I’ve also was an assistant at a vet clinic so I have tons of hands on experience. I currently also work at a training facility in River falls called Crystal Clear Canine Training. I’ve worked with animals of all ages and know what it’s like to leave animals in other people’s care, you only want the best. Like I said above I currently work at a training facility throughout the week but always get a lunch break so I am able to stop in if need be. I’m completely free Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining the pet’s routine to ensure consistency and comfort. I follow feeding, walking, and care instructions precisely while providing regular updates with photos and notes on the pet’s well-being. Cleanliness and safety are always a focus, ensuring food and water bowls are fresh, litter boxes are maintained, and the home stays tidy. My experience in animal training allows me to reinforce positive behaviors and help manage any stress or anxiety the pet may experience in their owner’s absence. Having worked in the veterinary and training fields for years, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I strive to provide the best care possible.

Every pet I visit will be treated with love, care, and patience.

About: I have been taking care of friends and families pets since I was 16. Taking care of their animals while they are on vacation. I was responsive for feeding, walking, taking them out to use the bathroom, playing with them and caring for them while their parents were away. I’m a teacher. During the school year I’m available every day, but all day on Saturday's and Sunday's. In the summer time my availability is wide open! I live in an apartment building with plenty of walking trails around to get plenty of exercise. The apartment has plenty of space for a pet to move around.
About: I have always had dogs in my life. From a black lab hunting dog, to an elderly chihuahua, and a puppy Siberian husky! I currently have two cats (mama & kitty) that I rescued from a foster home. Pets are the best!! I’m a retired US Air Force officer, so I have a lot of flexibility. I enjoy walking and taking my grand-dogs to the dog park. I’m home a lot because I’m retired from the military, so I have a ton of flexibility. So, I can spend a lot of time with your pet.
About: I have cared for animals of many kinds since I was young and have experience with parrots, dogs, cats, and reptiles. Friends and family frequently rely on me to care for their pets while they are away. I am currently studying to become a veterinary technician, which helps me provide knowledgeable and attentive care for every pet. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide consistent care and attention for pets. I am available most weekends and weekday afternoons, ensuring your pet gets regular exercise, playtime, and supervision. I provide safety, trust & environment by making sure that your pet is safe in my care, I will make sure they are never off leash when they go outside, and always confined when I leave! Your pet will always be in safe hands!
About: I have lived with dogs since childhood. I have had several dogs of my own, currently I have two Border Collies, one is a tripod. I am currently not working so I am available 7 days a week. I expect that will change and I will update my schedule then. I offer safety and trust to you and your animals. I am available to let them out, take them for walks, give meds, snuggles and playtime up to 3 times per day.
About: I’ve spent years caring for my own pets, ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I’ve looked after my grandma's cat multiple times and other puppies and kitties for friends. I stand out from other sitters because of my deep passion for animals and my hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs. I love to give extensive play-times when possible, and lots of pets! Whether it’s administering medication for senior pets or providing a nurturing environment for lonely kitties, I’m committed to giving your furry friends the best care possible. I'm currently working part-time as well as attending university, so my schedule may be busy, but I am more than willing to work around it to accommodate for proper pet care. My Sundays are always open and Fridays are usually open as well. Let's work something out! I live in a safe, well-secured apartment complex beside a golf course, so plenty of room to give walks if needed. I also have two kitties with separate rooms, based on if your furry friend needs company or just some alone time! I am committed to ensuring that every pet is happy and healthy and feels safe in its environment.
About: As someone who has loved animals since I was a child, having the opportunity to look after a range of different pets/companions is a real dream come true for me. Growing up with multiple dogs and cats I can ensure all future clients that I am fully capable in the ability to take proper care of your furry friend. I’m currently working part time as an assistant teacher for pre-K Mondays Wednesdays and Fridays and have full availability Tuesdays and Thursdays/ weekends to help with your pets :) As someone who loves the outdoors, I always prioritise fresh air and some sun when taking care of my pets anyone else’s companion. Making sure the animals in my care are content and living the life they deserve .
About: I have never not had a dog…or multiple!😊 I’ve grown up with Labrador Retrievers. With that being said, I can handle the chewing, the energy, the hours of stimulation, and the endless snuggles! I have raised multiple puppies into adulthood, with two currently being my own! From potty training to tricks, to walking on a leash, I have done it all! I also have had family dogs that’s we have had until 12-14 years old that have required special needs due to age. I am a nurse who once wanted to become a vet so I am super flexible from an experience standpoint!😊 I am a night shift nurse who works just a couple days a week! With that being said, my schedule is flexible and I’m almost always home! We are extremely active people who go on multiple walks a day, and I typically run a couple miles a week as well! Weather permitting, we are outside 95% of the time. My dogs are always enjoying the sun on our large deck that overlooks our woods, outside running in the woods, or playing fetch in the yard. We have 2 young and friendly labradors who love to play and meet new friends! We own 2 acres, half of it being woods with trails! This would be for the guests who have a great recall or have halo collars😊 For the ones who struggle a little more with recall, we have a 3 car garage with a doggy door to go in and out of a fenced in area (in pictures)! Also a large deck to catch some rays on, as well as plenty and plenty of walks! I want your pup(s) to feel as comfortable as possible and never want to leave😊 I am extremely flexible and want to stick to their routine as much as possible!

“Our dog Kinley stayed with Tricia again and had the best time! I could tell Kinley was comfortable, happy and well cared for in all the photos and updates Tricia shared. We are grateful for Tricia and will definitely be reaching out again. Thanks Tricia and family!”
“I can't say enough about Karen, from the meet n great through the entire stay. She was very thorough with details and communication. She welcomed my fur baby into her home and loved him like her own. She did an amazing job keeping him in his daily routine. This was the first time he has stayed with anyone other than family and I could not be happier. The daily updates and photos helped me enjoy my vacation knowing he was in great hands! I could tell with the photos that he was really loved and super happy. I look forward to booking more stays and highly recommend her and her family.”
“Nicole and Derek took great care of Rocky while we were away. Very flexible with drop off and pick up times, even available for us to drop him a day early at the last minute. Frequent and quick communication including many photos, which we really enjoyed. Rocky came home happy and we will definitely have him stay with them again!”
“This was Rosie first boarding, other than a few nights at a commercial daycare center. Mike accommodated an unexpected nighttime crate issue, Rosie did not want to sleep in her crate. She has slept in her crate at our home since we got her as a 3mo puppy in early April 2024. Thank you Mike. After her stay at Mike’s, we are now more aware that we need to work on the “come” command. Thank you Mike for all the daily pictures - she looked like she was having fun!”
“John and Teri did a fantastic job caring for our dog. They are great communicators and we know our dog was well loved while he was staying with them. We would not hesitate to book again and highly recommend to anyone considering!”
“This is my second time using Caleb for pet sitting. He is very attentive and carefully introduces dogs that are boarding or coming for daycare, to ensure there are no conflicts or issues. Provides updates and pics that helps put dog parents' minds at ease!”
“Kelly did a great job watching Charlie over the 4th of July. He was very happy throughout his stay. I appreciated the pictures and updates over the holidays. We would definitely book with Kelly again.”
“David & Nicole are awesome! Our 4-year old flat-coated retriever Kosmo stayed with them for 4 days, and it couldn't have gone better. We had a nice meet n' greet a few days in advance, and David was so thoughtful in how he introduced Kosmo to his dogs and made her feel comfortable. When we dropped her off two days later she was already excited to be there. While we were away, they sent daily updates with fun videos of her playing. And they were extremely accommodating and understanding when my return flight got delayed. David and Nicole clearly love dogs - we recommend them highly!”
“Kristen was great with Rocco. I was texted daily pictures of him, which was awesome! When I picked him up he was so happy! He actually whinned when we left. Which means he didn't want to leave. Lol I would totally have Kristen watch Rocco again and again.....”
“Jessica and her husband were great. My dog has separation anxiety, but she was in no hurry to leave their home. And, she's been relaxed since her stay with them. Communication was great. I will definitely use Jessica again!”
“Monika is truly the best at what she does. Our dog Sophie always looks at visits as a vacation when we go on vacation. She just loves the family and the dogs that live there. The backyard that is fenced in is wonderful. This is truly our dog’s home away from home. If I could give higher than 5 stars I would. They are fantastic and I recommend them with the highest possible regard.”
“Kyle provided a comfortable stay for my dog Len's first Rover experience. Even though it was a pretty short stay it was so nice to get pictures and an update on how Len was doing. Will definitely be using Kyle again!”
“Our experience with this wonderful family was just that, wonderful! The entire family helped care for Bailey just like she was their own. Lots of snuggles, love & attentive care. Our family had just lost our dear Betsy (our older blue heeler). We had to let her go in January of this year due to illness & age. It was very clear that Bailey was missing her. So when she met some new friends like these great people, she was in heaven. Along with variety of 4 legged friends. We received lots of updates and pics on our vacation and that really put our minds at ease. I don’t think Bailey wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!😁 We feel blessed to have found this family and will definitely be booking again! Thank you ♥️”
“Betty had an amazing time! She came home happy and well exercised. Sitter was very attentive and always sending photos and videos. I never worried at all about Betty’s care. I know she was very well taken care of and had a great time!”
“Shannon and David did AMAZING with my dog. Their communication is top notch and they sent me updates along with pictures while they watched him. I highly recommend and wish I would have found them sooner as I need services a couple of times a year!”
