Highly-rated overnight sitters - Saint John
“Amazing person! She knew how it was my first time getting a puppy sitter and I was worried and not let alone nervous but Emily was 100% able to re-ensure me that My baby girl would do Amazing! Love Emily and her family already for doing such amazing job with my baby girl and prove to me that everything WILL be okay!! She even sent me pictures and videos, I had tons of happy tears even though I missed my baby girl!!”
“We are so grateful to have found Anu and her family to care for our Ginger. Ginger loves going there to play and visit. They have become like her second family! She's already had 3 stays and a 4th one planned. Highly recommended!”
“Bobbi and her family took great care of my fur baby! She sent lots of updates and my pup came home exhausted from all the playing he did at her house. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Krystal and her dog Duke were great with Jack on his 7 day stay. I was nervous because he was attacked at feeding time by a sitter’s dog in the past, but Krystal put my mind at ease and promised if there was any issue she would find a way to keep them separate and make it work. I had no reason to be nervous, everything went fine and Jack had a good time. We will choose Krystal and Duke again!”
“Maria was great! While on vacation we got delayed an extra night due to a tropical storm and she was quick to help and eased any worry of having a safe place for our dog. Chewy is a great pup but in need of a little extra attention and Maria easily fulfilled this as she only watched one dog at a time having Chewy return to us happy and healthy! We were also able to see updates on him through the pictures she sent and could see his personality still shining through as he was definitely comfortable in her care.”
“By far my dog’s favorite sitter! She is always treated like part of their family and she has so much fun playing with their dogs. I love all the photos and the run down of all the fun playtime she got during the day!”
“Jessica and Chase were very helpful boarding Barley while we were traveling. We had two meet and greets before boarding so that Barley could get used to their house and their dog. They sent pictures every day with comments on how Barley was doing. We really appreciated that and looked forward to it every day! We know he really felt cared for by them when we picked him up and he had to say goodbye to each of them before we left. Thank you again Jessica and Chase!”
“Mabel had such a wonderful time staying with Catherine and Andrew. She loved their large fenced yard, and the walks and cuddles she received. I felt very good about leaving her in their care, and hope to again for our next trip.”
“I have never boarded a pet before, and this was a great first experience! Korri and James treated my cat like one of their own. She had her own space, and they gave her plenty of attention. I really appreciated that I received at least one picture and update on how she was doing every day, and, if there were any questions about her care, I was asked. Babe was happy and relaxed. Even after I picked her up she was very calm. I know she received excellent care from genuine animal lovers! I would definitely take Babe back to Korri. For anyone who ever needs their pet cared for with complete peace of mind this is where I would definitely recommend taking them!”
“Kristina was a wonderful stepmom to our dog, Luna. Luna came back to us in great health and very happy. Kristina was very accommodating and polite with all communication. She was always quick to respond to any message I sent her. Luna kept her same routine and Kristina was even very willing to give Luna meds she needed. I would recommend anyone to use Kristina for their dog sitting needs and we will certainly ask her to watch Luna again!”
“Mary was amazing!! My dog does not normally like new people but he loved Mary and she took great care of him. I even had to book last minute because of a funeral. I was able to be fully present with my family at our time of loss because my dog was so well cared for. Thanks Mary!!”
“Kristal and Scott were really great sitters. My Sophia was well taken care of and loved by them. She sent me updates on her and pictures almost on a daily basis. I would recommend them and use them in the future.”
“Caitlin was amazing, this was my first time using this app amd at last minute request she will willing to help. Very friendly and great communication. My cat looked like she had a great time and will use her again!”
“Our Springer enjoyed staying with Chelsea. When our return flight was rescheduled due to weather, she happily worked with us to extend his visit not just once, but twice, on short notice. Copper came home happy and tuckered out from playing with her dogs. We will totally recommend her for short or long term stays.”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you for taking such good care of our doggie while we were away for a week. Knowing he was being loved and cared for like he is a member of your family gave us such a peace of mind.”
“Frank and Julie were great! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. We got plenty of pictures and updates throughout the week. Plenty of walks and play time too! Highly recommend.”

Cat caregivers near you - Saint John
About: I grew up with 2 cats in my home as a kid until I moved out for college. The only thing keeping me from being a cat lady are my child's allergies. I also help out family and close friends when they are out of town. I'm not afraid of a litter box or a little throw up/hair ball. I understand I'm earning their respect as well :) I would love to be the person to check in on your loved one while you are out of town or working long days and provide a social visit, top up snacks and water, and clean up if needed. I am an RN and have experience with medication administration with dogs.
“Travis was fantastic with our kitties! We hired him to stay with them and we couldn’t be happier with his services. We got multiple updates with pictures, and came home to a well kept home. Very reliable, great communication, and overall just a very nice person whose love for animals is obvious when you meet him. We’ll hire him again. 10 / 10 would recommend Travis.”
About: I've had cats in my house my entire life, with the exception of college. They are my heart and soul. I am the first person my friends & family think of when they need a cat sitter. I have cared for cats of all ages, from kitten to seniors. I also have experience administering medications. As a long time cat momma, I have decades of experience with these wonderful fluff balls!
About: I have extensive hands‑on experience caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs. From shy, slow‑to‑warm kitties to confident social butterflies, I understand how to read feline body language and adjust my approach to make every cat feel safe and respected. My care includes feeding routines, litter box maintenance, enrichment play, grooming support, and administering medications when needed. I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior—whether it’s appetite, energy, or mood—so I can keep your cat comfortable and content while you’re away.
“Jenna did great and was very flexible. She even got some pets in with my rabbit who is usually wary of strangers or people in general so im very happy with the job she did!”
About: Hello! I’m Taylor, a 23 year old animal lover with over 14 years of experience caring for cats. Since I was young, I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors by, feeding pets, providing companionship, and staying with them while their owners were away. I currently have two one-year-old cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m available for drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions to help them feel at ease. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and personalized care.
“My regular pet sitter was unavailable so I am a first time Rover user. Briana took the time necessary to understand Chewy’s personality and needs. Chewy is a very shy cat but came out for pets during Briana’s visits. I will definitely book Briana again if my pet sitter is busy.”
“Olivia was available last minute to watch after our shy kitty Bubba, and she took fantastic care of him. Although he was hiding when she stopped by, she managed to snap a few photos to let us know he was ok, and she even watered our plants while we were away. She's friendly, responsive and caring...everything you need in a pet-sitter! We'll definitely bring her back to care for Bubba when we go out of town in the future :)”
“Michelle is very sweet and trust worthy. I am so thankful she was able to take care of our kitties while we left and I know my cats definitely enjoyed her coming over, feeding & playing with them! She even went above and beyond to take our trash to the curb. 10/10 recommend Michelle :)”
About: I've been taking care of dogs on my own since middle school. We've always had a family dog in the household as well as friends and neighbors who would need help with their little ones. I have a BS in Animal Science, have worked as an emergency vet assistant/triage tech for the last 3 years, and have some professional dog training experience. I currently have 2 guinea pigs, and a 2-year-old AND 1-year-old pitty/lab mix that love to come to work with me and go on all sorts of outdoor adventures! Needless to say, my life revolves around animals and I don't know what the world would be like without them! I would love to get to know your little one and be there for them (and you!) when needed! Good communication and planning helps me arrange my schedule and make myself available for your needs. I often have days off during the week so I can spend time with our furry friends while their families are at work. Having worked in an emergency pet hospital keeps me on my toes and I always put safety first. When it comes to walking outside, I double check collar/harness every time to ensure a secure yet comfortable fit that can't be slipped out of. I also know dog body language and signs of illness to monitor and keep people and pets safe!
About: Hi! I am full-time teacher, part-time photographer, and a full-time dog mommy. I have had dogs as pets since I was about 10 years old. My family dogs became my responsibility when my parents went out of town (as I was the oldest). I love to go on walks, play fetch, and just about anything else that dogs love to do! Since I am a full-time teacher, I would be available during nights and weekends to watch and/or stay overnight with. Dogs are welcome in my home as long as they get along with other dogs. I have two dogs myself currently, a Boston terrier/boxer mix and a Chihuahua/terrier mix. I am caring, loyal, and flexible. I would love to meet you and your dog!
About: Available for doggy day care as well as overnight and long term boarding in our home. Experienced in taking care of cats, dogs, and small animals of all ages and needs. My partner and I have owned and sat several dogs and cats for the past 20 years. I will take care of your pets like they are my own, and will thoroughly follow any instructions provided for their care. I am able to take dogs on walks as much as needed and am close to both the Appleton and Kaukauna dog parks. I currently own 3 small dogs and 2 cats, 4 of which are rescues. I live in a quiet area of Kaukauna and am available most nights and weekends. Hope to hear from you! I work from home at least 2 days per week and my fiancée works from home full time. We do not work weekends. It’s common for us to have visiting dogs hanging in our home offices with us during their stay meaning your dog will get lots of attention from us! We make sure to monitor any visiting dogs multiple times per day, provide separation with multiple gates in our home when needed, always watch during feeding times, and provide regular updates on how your dog is doing with photos.
About: I have had a love for dogs my entire life! I was blessed to grow up with the sweetest Black Lab and my family welcomed a toy poodle to our family when I was 12. In the last couple of years, the family dogs have gone from 2 to 6 with the addition of my in-laws. I am at my happiest when we are all in the same house, each of us with a dog on our lap or at our feet. I don't know what life is like without a dog in it! I lost my 4 year old mini dachshund unexpectedly in 2020. Since then my love for dogs has only grown. I would love to hangout with your furbaby! I currently work a hybrid schedule, working from home most days. My role allows me flexibility throughout the day. I would love to fit in a couple of dog walks and cuddles into my schedule. All dogs are part of the family in my home. I will never treat them differently. I grew up with runners, so have no fear that keeping your dogs safe and home is my number one priority.
“Brianna was great. I was in a pinch and had never used Rover before. She wasn't able to meet my dog (German Shepherd) before hand during the week. That is important walking into a home of a Shepherd! She was flexible and met my dog in the morning of the day I needed her in the afternoon. Very much appreciated and worked out really well. Highly recommended and everyone should use her (except when I need her!!) Bill”

“i can not say enough wonderful things about Ally…I know our little Ruthie feels the same. From the walks to the park and on the trails, to the play time and rest time Ally was a pro! My only wish is that she lived in Kentucky! We will be in Appleton again soon and hope that Ally is available for Ruthie again…”
“This was a last minute need so it was great he could watch Cody with very short notice. Cody is an older dog and does not take change well, so it was fantastic he was excited to return the next day which means Cody really enjoyed his stay. Great care and communication! Cody was all smiles!”
About: I have part-time pup named Teddie, who you can see in my photos. I cared for my parents' elderly dog for two months, and I occasional provide daily care for another friend's dog. I'm looking forward to making more pet connections, and I hope to meet your animal companions very soon! I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I have significant flexibility in my schedule. I will work with you to make sure all your pet's needs are met! I am happy to care for your pets at your home, or mine. We are best set up to care for dogs at our home, with easy access to our backyard and a longer, outdoor leash (no fence). My eleven-year-old enjoys animals as well, and he often scooters with me during doggie walks. I have experience with elderly dogs and anxious dogs.
“Our experience was wonderful! Megan was incredibly kind, caring, and made us feel completely at ease leaving our dog in her care. Her dog, Apollo, was so friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”
About: Since childhood, I have been responsible for the care of various animals, including dogs, cats, and small animals of diverse species. Among these, dogs hold a special place in my heart as my favorite animal. As a full-time stay-at-home mother, I am constantly at home with my children and dogs. During the summer months, we thoroughly enjoy spending time outdoors. I have a spacious backyard that is not fenced in, but I have a long tie-out if needed for your furry friends. Your pets will be well cared for.
“Highly recommend Chelsea! She was very easy to communicate with and was able to take Voss on short notice when we had to be in town unexpectedly. My dog had a fun day playing with her dogs in the fenced back yard and house. She even trimmed his nails for us which was really great. We’ll be back if we need care in Oshkosh again!”
About: I have had pets all my life! Including dogs, cats, geckos, and fish. I am super passionate about dogs especially, as is my husband. I have dog sat for numerous families in the past, and would love to put my skills to use by hosting pets, and dog walking! We are an incredibly dog friendly house, where dogs are treated as humans. We have a sweet two year old hound mix named Charlie. He LOVES all people and dogs, and would also love some friends to play with! We have done training classes with him, and are very knowledgeable about dogs. We would love to share our passion with you, and your furry friends! I am also a moderator for an online group as well!
About: I love taking care of dogs. I will walk your dog in the Spring, Summer and Fall in good weather. Your dog will have my 3 year old Maltese to play with. I’m CPR trained and if needed, with calling you first, take your dog to my home town ER hospital (hope we never need to use that). Your dog must be potty trained for outside. My grandchildren all love dogs, they visit sometimes. I have been with dogs all my life. So rest assured I’ll take care of your dog while I take care of mine and my grandchildren. I will have play time and potty breaks. Will try to teach your dog new tricks. I’ve taken training classes with Pet Smart. You won’t regret placing your pet with me.
“Kimberly and her sweet son were so kind and welcoming. She was very conscientious of my dog's needs and sent many photos/updates throughout the day. Playtime and trails walks wore her out! She slept the whole way home. Thank you for taking such good care of our Emma!”

“Briana came out and walked my dog for me for a week while I had longer working hours. Duke loved her, she was prompt and had great communication! I so appreciated her coming out of her way to get him out and will absolutely be booking again!”
About: I’ve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, I’m able to offer flexible, consistent attention—perfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular check‑ins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each pet’s routine stable. Whether it’s morning care, midday enrichment, or evening check‑ins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because I’m used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, I’m very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way they’re used to. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rules—so pets feel secure and stress‑free. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling lived‑in and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.

I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting, and I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions to help them feel at ease.

I’m available before work, in the afternoon/evenings, and on weekends for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I do my best to be flexible and communicate clearly, so if you have a specific schedule or timing in mind, feel free to reach out. I’ll always make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, carefully follow your instructions, and keep your pet’s normal routine to help reduce stress while you’re away. I’m attentive during walks, make sure pets have fresh food and water, provide plenty of playtime and affection, and will always keep doors, gates, and leashes secure. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Madalyn is consistent and flexible on scheduling walks! She was so kind to my dog when she realized he was scared of a thunderstorm! She sat with him and came back later to walk him when the storm was over.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up helping care for our family labs, and now I have a sweet red lab of my own named Ravioli. We spend a lot of time going on walks, playing at the park, and just enjoying being outside together—so I know how important it is for dogs to get both exercise and attention. I’m also a teacher, which means I have a very flexible schedule—especially during the summer—so I’m able to offer consistent care, walks, and drop-ins when many others aren’t available. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve helped look after my neighbors’ dogs, making sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every dog like they’re my own, paying attention to their unique personality, energy level, and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just some company, I’d love to help. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! Availability During the school year, I work weekdays but still have some limited availability for walks or drop-ins depending on timing. I’m most consistently available on weekends. In the summer, my schedule opens up significantly as a teacher, which allows me to be available most days for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule to make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need! Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure dogs are securely leashed on walks, closely supervised, and cared for in a safe, calm environment. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior, energy level, and any specific instructions you provide to ensure they feel comfortable and happy. I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. Having a dog of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. Whether I’m caring for your dog in your home or taking them out for a walk, I strive to create a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pup.

About: I've had dogs my whole life. Currently, we have two cats, which is easier with our sports schedule, but I miss having a dog to walk. So, I thought I'd see if you needed help with yours. I'm working part-time and own a business. Both provide me flexibility to be there when your dog needs me. My kids are old enough for me to be gone for short stints. Prefer walking schedules during, morning, afternoon, or late evening as those provide me the best opportunity to give your pets the attention they deserve. Experience walking dogs with leash aggression. Can typically recognize it in your dog or the dogs we are approaching. Will always keep animals leashed in public.
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was ten years old. From walking, feeding, caring for and playing with my own dogs and cats, to walking and dog sitting neighbors' and friends' pets, I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, activity levels, and sizes. Additionally, I have experience providing medication to both cats and dogs, having had pets who required medication. I'm currently a full-time college student. Outside of school I don't work, so my afternoons, evenings, and weekends are usually pretty open to stop by and let pets out, walk them, feed them, spend time with them, or whatever else you may need. When I go back home to visit, I love being able to walk my dogs, play with them, and spend time with my cat. Pet care has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I absolutely love my two dogs and cat and enjoy taking care of them. I treat all other animals as they are my own, showing them the same love, care, and respect that I show my own pets.

I was nervous because he was attacked at feeding time by a sitter’s dog in the past, but Krystal put my mind at ease and promised if there was any issue she would find a way to keep them separate and make it work. I had no reason to be nervous, everything went fine and Jack had a good time. We will choose Krystal and Duke again!”
“Mabel had such a wonderful time staying with Catherine and Andrew. She loved their large fenced yard, and the walks and cuddles she received. I felt very good about leaving her in their care, and hope to again for our next trip.”
“I have never boarded a pet before, and this was a great first experience! Korri and James treated my cat like one of their own. She had her own space, and they gave her plenty of attention. I really appreciated that I received at least one picture and update on how she was doing every day, and, if there were any questions about her care, I was asked. Babe was happy and relaxed. Even after I picked her up she was very calm. I know she received excellent care from genuine animal lovers! I would definitely take Babe back to Korri. For anyone who ever needs their pet cared for with complete peace of mind this is where I would definitely recommend taking them!”
“Caitlin was amazing, this was my first time using this app amd at last minute request she will willing to help. Very friendly and great communication. My cat looked like she had a great time and will use her again!”
“Our Springer enjoyed staying with Chelsea. When our return flight was rescheduled due to weather, she happily worked with us to extend his visit not just once, but twice, on short notice. Copper came home happy and tuckered out from playing with her dogs. We will totally recommend her for short or long term stays.”
“Frank and Julie were great! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. We got plenty of pictures and updates throughout the week. Plenty of walks and play time too! Highly recommend.”
“Melissa was fabulous with Bear! This was our first time using Rover and we loved our experience! She sent pictures and kept us informed and was very transparent. Definitely recommend.”
“Kathy did a great job. She came through for me at a moments notice when my boarder had a cancellation. Her dogs did well with my boy. He came home happy and tired which is a good thing.”
“What can I say? Melissa was amazing. Needed a sitter for our Weimaraner at the last minute. Needed to leave town for family reasons. Called the usual suspects. They gave me the dog and pony show. No pun. Ridiculous what you got to go through to board your dog these days. A few of my friends and customers recommended Rover. I went on there and checked it out. In about 30 minutes from first seeing it, to signing up, I had already booked Melissa to watch our dog Kaiser. I arranged to bring him over, and she couldn't have been any more sweet. I can really tell that she loves animals. Very cool chick too. Our dog was in good hands the couple days he was there. When we got him back, he was well rested, and had none of the anxiety boarding can bring on. It's great to know I have someone that I can rely on if we leave town for any reason to watch after our pooch. I couldn't recommend her anymore. Thank you!”
“Jeffrey was amazing with communication from the start of booking all the way to the end of the trip. He truly eased my fears of leaving my dog for the first time ever. He took her on walks and just gave her so much love and TLC. He gave daily updates on my dog and even sent pictures. Eased my heart for sure. He was truly amazing with my dog Belle and I will definitely be using him in the future.”
“Ram and Anu were fantastic! They sent videos, photos and even brought Nikky to visit me at the hospital for a couple hours. They treated Nikky like their own... plenty of love and interaction and fun. I will definitely book them again. I recommend them to anyone who truly loves their pet. I loved the photos of their daughter reading to Nikky and played with him. Their Chocolate Lab was a great buddy for Nikky. They played very well together.”
“Denise and her whole family are fantastic!! Our dog Miley loved her stay. I highly recommend Denise to anyone who is looking for a kind and compassionate dog sitter!!”
“We highly recommend Samantha. Her communication was incredible and her care for our pup exceeded our expectations: she treated our fur baby like her own. Her genuine, patient, and empathetic care brought us peace of mind while we were away. It was a great experience for our young pup too. There’s no question we’d use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone searching for pet care. There’s no better feeling than knowing your beloved fur baby is being loved and cared for by another loving family in your absence.”
