“Edith did a wonderful job taking care of our four-legged family member. She was caring, responsible, and an excellent communicator. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing our pup was in such good hands.”

“Katie and Samuel were great to Jarvis and sent us several updates throughout his stay. They also have a gated backyard to help with energetic dogs. I would highly reccomend!”

“Stefanie and her family were so loving to my little dog Dolly! I cant say enough about how accommodating they were while I was away in Arizona for the week. I highly recommend them for your pups dog sitting needs! Will be using them again in the future for sure. Dolly sure does miss them all!”

“Willow seemed to enjoy her stay with Kristin and Bruce! They sent sent us status updates and pictures every day so that we knew how she was doing. I'd definitely board with them again!”

“Lindsey and her family are fantastic sitters! Her children love dogs and her dog Echo enjoys playing with Poppy. Lindsey makes every dog feel welcome and loved. She does extras like supplying extra food, treats and time outside. I was afraid my pup wouldn’t want to come home after all of those belly rubs!!”

“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!”

“Very friendly and dependable. Timely communication, and great pictures and updates during the stay. Confident that Louie got lots of attention, exercise, doggy socialization, and love.”

“The friendliest family! I had car issues and Martha came to the rescue to grab my dog from the side of the road AND dropped her off at the end of the stay. My favorite rover provider to date”

“The kids were happy. Good communication, lots of photos and video. It was a great place with a good yard for them to play. She took good care of our perrhijos.”

“Our quirky rescue pup was so well taken care of while we were away! In every update we got it was clear that our dog was feeling more and more comfortable and was left in good hands. We will definitely book again!”

“Korie took wonderful care of Dizzy! Her communication and updates were clear and she was flexible with pickup and drop off times. Would absolutely love for Dizzy to stay with Korie and Ozzy again.”

“Please read! I will be there first to admit I was skeptical of using Rover. I carefully scanned through profiles of those willing to watch the two dogs we have, a Great Dane and a boxer. Cilyr was so much more than we could have asked for! She and I agreed having a meet and greet prior was a great choice to make sure the dogs would have an easier transition. Cilyr went to every length to ensure she had asked questions we may not have thought of: do the dogs have allergies? Require specific routines? But I was really blown away when she brought to my attention that she does not have a truck large enough for our Great Dane in the event he would need to get to a vet emergently however, she has already arranged with a friend and neighbor that she could borrow theirs should an emergency arise. I knew at that moment She was that absolutely perfect choice to watch our dogs. This was not just a” side gig” for her, she genuinely cares so much for animals and helping others! When I brought the boys back for their week long stay they took about a day and a half to fully adjust. I know this because Cilyr went above and beyond to make sure I knew the boys were doing well and sent pictures! It was so heartwarming to get those little messages and pictures and know our boys were in great hands. Through those pictures you could see our dogs easing into their day and feeling safe and loved. Before we had even returned from our vacation we had discussed that we will hands down take our dogs back to her any time we need to leave them. The personal touches are unmatched to anything we’ve experienced in the past and we will absolutely recommend her every chance we get! Thank you Cilyr!”

“Our 2 dogs stayed at Sarah's for about a week earlier this month. The stay was great! We got daily updates, including photos and videos. They have a fantastic large fenced in yard where they could safety run and play. They had lots of playtime, but also lots of snuggles and love. They were both clearly enjoying their own vacation at Sarah's while we were gone on ours. It was so refreshing to know they were so well cared for while we were away- we have already rebooked them for our next trip!”

“Cleda was an awesome temporary mom to Humphrey. This was our first time using Rover and I was a little nervous, but Cleda was so quick to respond, sent pictures of Humphrey throughout his visit, and he was clearly comfortable and happy in her care. I would trust Humphrey with her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to any pup owner.”

“Paula was great communicating and even ended up spending the evenings with my pup on the sofa since she wasn't comfortable alone. She also gave necessary medication and kept track of everything as I had asked. She sent pictures and kept my dog happy and safe, would recommend and use again. Thank you!”

“Michelle (and family) took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town for 2 days, even keeping her calm during a storm. Great communication, too!”

About: I am a 19 years old and have grown up loving animals since day one. I am a very energetic person that absolutely loves to play with animals of all sorts. I am just as comfortable being outside with a Great Dane as I am being indoor with a five pound cat. I have a plethora of experience walking all sizes and breeds of dogs as well. I have no problem taking a leisure walk in the park or going for a run with dogs that want to try to keep up. I have been to multiple different dog training classes with my own dog. For dogs that are interested in staying at my house I have plenty of space in my home and in my yard to run around and have a blast. I am currently working part time and am available after 2 P.M. most days. I do not work on the weekends and I am free both days I am active and willing to walk and play with all sorts of pets indoors and outdoors. I enjoy playing with exercising all kinds of animals.

About: I have always had a love for cats. I have grown up with my older sisters cats and have spent much of my life caring and playing with them. I have two cats myself, which has given me firsthand experience with different personalities and unique needs. I also recently had to take in one of my cats for surgery so I know what signs to look for in a sick cat.

About: I have taken care of cats for over four years. I have volunteered at a shelter for the past five years in adoption events, as well as socializing, kittens, and cats taking care of food and dietary needs as well as social interactions with play. I also have a cat of my own, and therefore I’m familiar with food play and toileting needs. I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors cats for a total of one year. I cannot wait to meet and provide the best care to your beloved furry feline.
About: Pets bring us all kinds of joy and unconditional love. It's hard to relax on vacation or focus on an event with a piece of you missing . Be able to be present and ease your mind knowing another caring soul will show your pet the same love and attention they enjoy. I have 10 years of experience with all different breeds and sizes. I work remotely. My office is where the WIFI is the strongest. I have time to spend with animals. My children are grown leaving me with an abundance of free time Soft voices and lots of love and attention. Dogs I like to run and make sure that they have the exercise they need. Plenty of tug of war! Social cats I give lap time and bring a feather.

“Hailey was amazing with my two cats! From the photos she shared, I could tell that they were completely happy and comfortable with her. She sent detailed reports and lots of photos, which gave me peace of mind that the kitties were doing well while I was away. Thank you, Hailey!”


“Jordan took great care of our cats while we were away! She was super dependable and I didn’t have to worry about them at all. She must be a cat whisperer to get our shy cat to come out and play!”

“We've worked with Peyton several times and have always been very pleased with the care she provides our socially needy cat. This last time it was on short notice. We highly recommend Peyton.”


About: I regularly care for a family friend’s two cats. When looking after cats, I always make sure that they have fresh food and water, that their surroundings are clean, that they are healthy and behaving normally, and that I check on them through the day. I also make sure to play with them everyday for about an hour, depending on how much they like to play, either once or twice a day. I pay attention to their moods and activities to make sure that they are not only happy but also entertained, without overdoing it. Overall, I am keen on ensuring that the cats are happy in their absence.
About: My very first job was working at a family owned boarding and grooming kennel. I started when I was 14 years old and worked there through college. In between that, I've pet sat for several family members and friends. I work full time as a second shift (3:00 pm - 11pm) 911 dispatcher. I'd love to do some evening or early morning walks to start and would like to expand into pet sitting as my schedule allows. I have preference to pet sitting at the clients home because my roommates dog is a bit fickle on who she gets along with. Plus I own a cat and I know not every dog likes cats. As a pet sitter, I intend to take your dog for regular walks in addition to normal outside play time. I can work with your dog on any ongoing training you have with them.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and now have 2 of my own! I have a little tabby girl with some allergy health issues so I have experience with medicine and watching for flair ups! I also have a big Siberian boy so I am used to maintaining long hair cats! I am the first call when my friends with cats need a sitter!

About: I have a short haired calico named Coco and have many friends with cats that I get to hang out with. When I adopted Coco 5 years ago she was a terrified stray who didn’t know how to accept love. Now she’s the most spoiled little princess and can never get enough butt pats and head scritches. Litter box cleaning, giving wet food treat tubes and meals, and playing with your cat/s in whatever their preferred way is would be my joy!
“Alliyah watched our 15 y/o dog for 12 days while we were on spring break. She was easy to schedule with and communicative. Georgie seemed to really enjoy her visits and we recommend her!”

“Evan did a great job with my two cats. Everything went smoothly, he arrived consistently at the same time. I enjoyed the photos of my cats and the updates on how they were doing. They definitely seemed to like him. Would book again!”

About: Hello everyone! I’ve taken care of my personal pets my entire life, growing up with labs and vizslas and then adopting 3 pups of my own! My husband and I love dogs so much we recently started fostering as well! I’ve been working for rover for over 9 years now and absolutely love meeting and giving love and attention to pets of all kinds. My husband recently moved back to Wisconsin after living in Colorado for the last 7 years. I work from home full time meaning I can help with your pets before, during or after work, as well as weekends I am available to do drop ins throughout the day, dog walks or house sittings at your house. We have two pups of our own and are open to boarding, inquire if interested!
“Amazing! Our three pups hung out for a day while we went to an event, and they had lots of fun playing together and with Gen’s dogs! Lots of pictures of their day too ☺️”

“Lindsey was great! Super professional with a nice open yard setup for our pup. She was extremely prepared, clean, and fantastic with communication. Our pup seemed happy as a clam when we picked him up! 10/10, highly recommend”

“Edith is your dream sitter. She posts daily photos and updates of your pet. She obviously loves what she does. She is a lovely soul and my Mimi, who can be shy, had her tail up in the photos which made me feel reassured that she was in a safe, loving environment.”

“It was a last minute scramble to find anybody to watch the dogs, Amber reached out through the app she worked with us and even though she had another dog she was watching she took on our 2 little ladies and took very good care of them. I would certainly recommend her to anyone who has fur babies. Dogs well cared for and she is very easy to work with. 🐶❤️😊”

“We are looking to find someone to board Ollie with for weekends. To start him out slow (he has separation anxiety), we had a Meet and Greet, a short (3hr) stay and later, a full day stay. Julie was clear that her dog Zilla's comfort with Ollie was a priority, which I fully support. I won't want to trust my dog to someone who isn't looking out for ALL the dogs involved. Julie was very responsive with messages, showed us around her home and yard and was generally very calm and patient. While the dogs didn't end up getting along well enough for this to work out long term, Ollie warmed up to Julie and was definitely as calm as I've seen him after being left.”

“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?””

“Our dog Birdie enjoyed staying the morning and afternoon with Mallory and three labs. Mallory was very flexible and was great with the communication. I would definitely recommend her home.”

“Jenna and her girls took such great care of Merlin! Jenna always responds in a timely manner and has a flexible schedule. I got daily picture updates on how he was doing which was much appreciated. Merlin will definitely be visiting them again! Thank you so much 😊”


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.
“Sue and Molly took wonderful care of my dog, Bentley. I could tell he loved them too! They sent lots of photos and were willing to share updates any time. He was exhausted by the end of each day. I appreciate their flexibility as well.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Wolfy had such a great day with Mary and her family. He can back very happy, and Mary sent several lovely photos of his time. Mary was also flexible with me when my plans changed after booking, which was so appreciated.”

About: I’ve grown up in a household that has always had at least two dogs, usually 3. We also have 3 indoor-outdoor cats. I am now a student at UW Madison, and I have a 5yr old heeler shepherd mix. Throughout her life I have trained her for obedience and herding, and have dealt with low confidence and reactivity with her daily. I am experienced with dogs who are shy and tend to be reactive. I have a part time internship at UW Madison, so I have partially and completely free days every week. That being said, I will have plenty of time to make house visits around this schedule. I have experience training dogs and love hanging out with any breed of dog. I believe dogs need both mental and physical stimulation in order to be fulfilled.
“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!!!”

“Cloey did such a great job walking our dog Lily! She was timely and communicative. Lily got bored with walking so Cloey filled up the remaining time playing with her in the backyard. Lily loved her time with Cloey. Would recommend her to anyone!”

“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!)”


About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. Throughout childhood and into adulthood, I have always welcomed opportunities to care for dogs and cats because it brings me joy working with animals. As a teacher and with the school year now over, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your beloved pets and ensure they receive attention, exercise, and care. I am currently available all days of the week after 11am. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, or loving, I am your gal! I will not have the option to take in pets since I have two cats of my own. In my clients homes, I ensure the pets are able to maintain their daily routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I can provide fresh water, food, daily exercise, playtime, potty breaks, plenty of attention, and medicine if needed.
About: Not only have I pet sat for a variety of different animals, I also worked at a pet store for a year. I worked with so many different animals (cats, dogs, fish, small animals, reptiles, and birds) with all different personalities. I have also worked with animals that need extra special care along with administering medications. I’m a college student home for the summer and love being around all kinds of pets! I’ve grown up with lots of animals around front cats and dogs to small animals and chickens, and always love meeting new animals I always make sure I’m paying attention to your animals and making sure I do everything I can to make them as happy and comfortable as possible. I take time to get used to the animal and have the animal get used to me so I understand their body language and keep them happy.
About: I have many years of experience dealing with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from dog sitting to just walking my neighbors dogs on occasion. I have no problem taking them on a leisurely walk or going on a run. I've also grown up around dogs my entire life, I've never known a family life without at least a couple of dogs in the picture. I love all types and just really enjoy spending time around them and playing with them. I'm currently planning on working part time so I'm free basically whenever throughout the day to meet dog walking needs and get some exercise in. In a clients home I would just be extremely respectful of the house itself as well as what the pet needs. I would just make sure my tasks are finished in a proper way and that the pet is happy and everything is in the place it was originally in when I first arrived before leaving.

“Donna took such good care of my 4-month old puppy and even sent photos to show me he was happy and having fun! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so grateful to Donna for making this a great experience. I highly recommend her.”

“Lexi is very punctual and easy to work with. She takes great care of our pup and went above and beyond with extra requests today to get him some water and put him in his crate when they got back from their walk. Thank you, Lexi!”

About: I am an active, fun, and reliable caretaker for every pet! I have experience with young and old, big and small, dogs and cats. I'm happy to accommodate feeding, playtime, walks, and any other specific requirements your pet may need! Plenty of summer availability! I work a flexible schedule: available to check on cats and dogs throughout the day, board pets in my home, or stay with your pet as needed. My home has a spacious backyard with a park very nearby. Dogs are kept on a leash, but provided with plenty of outdoor time and walks to the riverwalk. I have an older cat who is friendly with all dogs.
“Aliyah responded very quickly to my request for dog walking while I couldn't get my 2 large fur babies out. She was kind, quick to bond with them, lovely to chat with and although it was a splurge for me it definitely feels worth it. The dogs liked her immediately, which isn't always the case with our oldest, more shy Sheepadoodle. As I write this, they are spread out on the floor tired, so goal met. I'll definitely ask for Aliyah's help again.”

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❣️
About: I have 3 years of hands-on pet care experience and I’m also a husky owner, so I understand how important patience, exercise, and attention are for every dog. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playtime, basic grooming, and keeping pets on their normal routine. I’m gentle, responsible, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I take dogs out for a walk every morning to make sure they get enough exercise and start the day well. In the afternoon, I usually take them to Middleton Dog Park for playtime and socialization. I follow each pet’s routine and make sure they stay active, happy, and well cared for throughout the day. I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment at all times. As a husky owner, I understand how to handle active and energetic dogs and always keep a close eye on their behavior. I make sure doors are secured, walks are done on leash, and pets are supervised during play. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, routines, and any special needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority.
About: I have a genuine love for animals. I proudly volunteer at the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin, where I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. That extra experience means I bring not just walks but patience, training awareness, and heart to every visit. Your pet isn’t just on my schedule, they’re part of my pack. 🐾 I work part-time and offer dog walking and drop-in visits for any type of animal during my off hours during the week. Weekends are usually pretty open! Safety, trust, and comfort are at the heart of everything I do. I care for my own pets in a calm, loving environment and treat every animal in my care as if they were part of my family. You can trust that your pets will be safe, respected, and genuinely loved. Their well-being always comes first. 🐾
