“Laura and family were terrific! They were excited about playing with our dog and getting to know him. They communicated well with regular updates and occasional questions. They are very knowledgeable about dog behavior and tuned into his needs and health.”

“Ty is calm and confident in handling my mini poodle. Drop off is always stressful for me, and Ty always takes birdie and reassures me that she will do fine. And she always does!”

“Kirsten and Kaleb have our Holly amazing care while we were gone for almost two weeks. They sent pictures every day and were so flexible with what we needed, even offering to keep Holly am extra day when we weren't sure we would get back on time. Holly doesn't always get along with other dogs but she loved their dog, Beau!”

“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”

“Jenny was phenomenal. She’s very flexible on times of pick up and drop off. She sent multiple pictures of Wiley having fun running around and playing. He was more energetic on pick up and even seemed as if he wished to stay longer. Both of her dogs were playful and accepted Wiley into their home with out any issues. Both Wiley and I are extremely pleased with this experience, and can’t wait until the next time Jenny can watch him again when I need to be out of town.”

“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”

I am available most days for intermittent care for pets during the week. My work schedule is consistent, 9:30-630 Monday-Friday during the summer and 12-6:30 during the school year. I am a student at UWL so I have classes but normally am able to create a schedule with you around them fairly easy.

I have no problems staying in and playing with toys as well if that’s what your pet prefers. I also have grown up with cats and am willing to care for them as well.
“Brookelynn was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our pet while we were away and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. You can tell she truly cares about animals. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter.”

“Janelle & Chris are amazing and such a sweet, welcoming couple. Like a lot of dog paw-rents, Nate & I were sad to leave Huck when we went on an extended weekend trip. Not only did Janelle & Chris set aside time for a quick meet and greet *before* we left for our trip, but they asked awesome questions during that meeting that made Nate & I feel like they truly wanted to love Hucky as much as we do. The continuous communications, the amazing adventures and the super cute pictures were all just an added, much appreciated bonus to the love and care they shared with our puppers. We're truly hoping our little rascal behaved will enough that he will be welcomed back with open arms by both Janelle & Chris. We're very thankful to have found some great new friends through Rover. Thanks so much, guys!! ❤️”

“Ambrosius had a lot of fun with her walks and doggy play! She came home and slept amazing. She was very happy and even got so comfortable she took a nap (rare for her at others houses). Thank you so much for making my puppy happy and feel loved.”

“Our Sweet Bella struggles with separation anxiety. We needed to find daycare for her while we were visiting family in La Crescent. Ty did an amazing job at working with her. He was flexible, patient, and did what he could to make her feel comfortable. He kept us informed with how she was doing and was prompt at responding to any messages.”

“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous but my overall experience was positive with AJ. We have a 1 year old mixed breed dog that is very playful and happy around pretty much everyone. We met in a park near AJ’s home and he was promptly on time and communicated well. I asked several questions about the plan for the day and everything seemed reasonable to me. For me personally I just wanted someone that would keep my dog active and happy for the afternoon, also sneak in the occasional nap is okay too. When the day was over we met in the park again and (on time) and my dog was happy to see me. Thumbs up!”

About: I have always had pets in my home my whole life both dogs and cats I am more of a dog person but I absolutely love caring for all animals and I know how difficult it can be depending on the animal my parents most recent dog was a handful he was in and out of several homes before finding his way to ours because of he’s very energetic and sometimes violent behavior but we turned him to a sweetie with time and good training. At first he was rather aggressive towards me and was very difficult to train because of how long he had gone without training which taught me a lot of tricks to deal with a difficult and aggressive dog. I love this job and I hope your pet will enjoy my company as much as I’ll enjoy theirs. I have bathed dogs helped bathe a cat with flees and I’m down to learn anything if you’ll help show me.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds, including dogs, cats, and rabbits. My family has always been full of pet lovers and our home has always welcomed animals of all shapes and sizes. Growing up,I learned how to care for pets kindly, patiently, and responsibly.

About: I have had my own dogs for about 9 years now! They are a golden doodle, a poodle, and a bernedoole! I have experience watching all kinds of dogs and would love to take care of yours! I work as a Nurse in the area so I work 2-3 times a week 12 hour shifts. Those days I wouldn’t be able to help, but am looking to help anyone on my days off! I currently have two dogs at home that I watch in a fenced yard! I have experience working with all kinds of dogs and am able to accommodate according to how you like raising your dogs!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. I’ve watched for family, family friends, and neighbours. I’ve always loved animals, and getting to work with them is like a dream! I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I’m also more than willing to get my hands dirty! Puppies can I have accidents, but it’s not a problem! They like to play in the mud, guess that means bath time! I also have experience giving dogs medication. My own dogs take medication daily and I’ve done it while sitting before! I’m currently working part time but I am in the market for a new job so any days and times work. My personal schedule is very flexible! If you have a fenced in yard your fur babies will be let out every two hours (supervised of course:) )No fenced in yard? No problem. They will still be taken out every two hours on a leash.

About: I've taken care of a variety of dogs since I was very young. I grew up with labs and I am very comfortable with all sizes of dogs. I took care of my yellow lab/retriever mix, Blue, for so many years; taking her on long walks, giving her baths, making sure she got along with our neighbor dogs. I also helped out taking care of my neighbor dogs from time to time. After my dog died at the age of 15, my family didn't think we would get another dog. 7 years ago, we got a new puppy, his name is Brooks, and he is a yellow lab. He is very different than our old dog. He has lots of energy, he has ran away a couple times but always came back or we found him, and we lived on 2 acres of land so that helped. He is our first inside dog, so he loves cuddles, treats, sleeping, playing catch and sneaking downstairs where he is not supposed to be. I have lots of experience with dogs and I appreciate and love them very much! I am currently working at the University of Wisconsin La Crosse, so I have the summer off. This summer I also work part-time at Festival. During the school year, I have Fridays off and I am done by 5:30pm the other days. On Mondays and Wednesdays I have slower mornings. I can help out throughout the day and on weekends. I live in an apartment building but there is an area with lots of grass and next to the building and around the area. My building doesn’t allow pets so I am not able to house pets at my place, but I can always talk to my landlord.
About: Hi there! My name is Brookelynn, and I’m a passionate dog lover and experienced dog walker and boarder. I have been working with dogs for 6 years, and I truly believe that they are some of the most loving and loyal animals out there. I recently got married, and my husband, Josh, occasionally assists me with dog care during the boarding process only as a reliable helping hand when needed—he’s just as loving and attentive with animals as I am. At times, he may also assist with meet-and-greets or pickups related to boarding, but I’ll always communicate with you in advance so you feel completely comfortable. As a dog boarder, I know that leaving your furry friend behind can be tough. That’s why I offer a safe, reliable, and loving home environment while you’re away. Your dog will be treated like family, with plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines you have for your pet, whether it’s administering medication or sticking to a specific diet. As a dog walker, I understand the importance of regular exercise and stimulation. I will provide your furry friend with a fun and active walk, tailored to their individual needs and energy levels. Whether your dog loves a leisurely stroll or a brisk jog, I’m ready to make sure they get the exercise they need. Above all, I believe in creating a safe and happy environment for all dogs in my care. I will always make sure your pet is comfortable and content. Let’s work together to keep your furry friend healthy, happy, and loved! I work as a Network Engineer Monday through Thursday from 8-5, but I have plenty of availability for walks in the evenings after work. I’m also available for drop-ins and boarding Thursday through Sunday, and can board dogs for stays longer than a week if needed! I am very much a “neat freak”. I believe in leaving an environment the way it was when you arrived… if not better. When visiting your residence I will make it my utmost priority to keep everything clean and make sure your furry family member is taken care of per your instructions.

About: I am an animal lover. I have had cats my whole life and dogs for about 20 years total. My "children" are my 3 cats and German Shepherd. I will treat your animal like my own. I do home visits, home stays, and walks. Don't put off your vacation because you don't want to leave your beloved animals. Let me take care of them! Thank you! - Samantha I am currently a remote freelance graphic designer and this allows me to set my own schedule and have flexibility. My husband and I do not currently have children so that also allows me to have a more open schedule without interruptions. I am not a person who has pets without considering their needs and happiness. I play with them, make sure they get medical care, medication, and make sure they feel safe and loved with cuddle time. I know that having a pet is a responsibility and a privilege.
About: What sets me apart? When your pet is in my care (at my home or your own), I make them my priority from start to finish and treat them like my own. When guest dogs are staying in my home I sleep with them in our spare bedroom (no kenneling at night or during the day unless you request I do so) and if I'm house sitting you can rest assured that I will leave your home and pets as good or better than I found them. I never charge extra for walks, playing fetch, taking them on a car ride, or doing an activity they enjoy. I want your pet to feel like they're on vacation, too :) When I'm house sitting for a client I aim to be there the entire time, and since I work remotely (as long as you have quality wi-fi) I am able to work from your home - this means your pet gets even more time and attention, and if I do have to leave it will only be for a very short period and I will communicate this to you prior. If you do not need/want me there 24/7 we can discuss and adjust price based on what we agree upon during our meet and greet. I aim to be as flexible as possible to meet both your need and your budget... I know this is an investment! I am here because I love the idea of helping other pet-parents know their pets can be taken care of when they are busy or want to enjoy time away with loved ones. I am also here because anyone who knows me knows how much I love animals :) both my own and any animal I meet. I have experience with all sorts of animals and I'm equally as comfortable with both dogs and cats... big and small. I also have experience with tricky behaviors (aggressiveness, food guarding, potty training, learning to walk on a leash, teaching commands, etc.). I can administer medicine, communicate with vet offices effectively, and I am known for providing all of the updates/pictures/videos someone would like while I'm caring for their pet! For awareness, dogs and cats are kept separate in our home. We do this for safety :) There is an underground fence for our dogs and this is an option if your dogs are collar trained. If not, no problem - I am happy to take pets out on a leash. Safety is my top priority, so I will strictly follow the instructions given for your pet(s). When it comes to inside the home, I will closely monitor all play/interactions and if needed, I will separate and/or give primarily 1 on 1 time with your pet if that is what they require. Please note: if you live more than 45 miles from my address I do charge a 1x flat fee of $50.00 while house sitting. Similarly, if you live more than 25 miles from my address I charge a 1x flat fee of $12.00 for dog walking and/or drop-in visits. Thank you for your understanding!

“Ty is calm and confident in handling my mini poodle. Drop off is always stressful for me, and Ty always takes birdie and reassures me that she will do fine. And she always does!”

“Kirsten and Kaleb have our Holly amazing care while we were gone for almost two weeks. They sent pictures every day and were so flexible with what we needed, even offering to keep Holly am extra day when we weren't sure we would get back on time. Holly doesn't always get along with other dogs but she loved their dog, Beau!”

“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”

“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”

About: I’ve pet sit for many friends and many different animals. I am reliable to feed, walk, and potty your animals. I’m comfortable around all animals. I’ve grown up having pets and adore all pets. I am available most days for intermittent care for pets during the week. My work schedule is consistent, 9:30-630 Monday-Friday during the summer and 12-6:30 during the school year. I am a student at UWL so I have classes but normally am able to create a schedule with you around them fairly easy. I have grown up with a very active family because we have always had very active dog breeds, I love taking them for walks/runs and would love to do the same for your pet. I have no problems staying in and playing with toys as well if that’s what your pet prefers. I also have grown up with cats and am willing to care for them as well.
“Brookelynn was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our pet while we were away and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. You can tell she truly cares about animals. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter.”

“Janelle & Chris are amazing and such a sweet, welcoming couple. Like a lot of dog paw-rents, Nate & I were sad to leave Huck when we went on an extended weekend trip. Not only did Janelle & Chris set aside time for a quick meet and greet *before* we left for our trip, but they asked awesome questions during that meeting that made Nate & I feel like they truly wanted to love Hucky as much as we do. The continuous communications, the amazing adventures and the super cute pictures were all just an added, much appreciated bonus to the love and care they shared with our puppers. We're truly hoping our little rascal behaved will enough that he will be welcomed back with open arms by both Janelle & Chris. We're very thankful to have found some great new friends through Rover. Thanks so much, guys!! ❤️”

“Monica was so great with our dog Finn while we were away for a weekend. She was super responsive and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her!”
