“Laura and her family welcomed my puggle into their home with open arms. They sent awesome near professional style photos while he was with them. Buster will for sure return in future. Clean safe home. Fenced in yard. Loving kids and adults and two small dogs to play with. 5 star accommodations! Thanks”
“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!”
“My dog stayed for an extended weekend and came home happy, healthy and tired from all the playing. Very happy with the service and will be using them again in the future.”
“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!!!”

“Janelle was an amazing rover. Incredibly attentive, kind, and you can tell she has such a warm heart and is a true dog lover. She gave us consistent updates about our pup (including pictures)! She and her husband even took our dog on a two mile walk since she knew we had a long drive back home. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Matt and his family were so accommodating and welcoming to S’mores! His kids were so sweet and I believe they had the best time with their furry guest.

About: Hello! I’m Laura, and I’m so excited to welcome your four-legged family member into my heart and home. Having grown up with dogs and raised three of my own beloved pups through to their golden years, I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets—they are cherished family members. Now that my home is a bit quieter, I have a wealth of love, patience, and attention to share with your dog while you are away. Why Choose Me? Lifetime of Experience: I have over 40 years of experience living with and caring for dogs. Senior Dog Care: Having loved three dogs through their entire lives, I am highly comfortable with senior care, gentle pacing, and keeping strict medication and feeding schedules. A Safe, Loving Environment: Your dog will get my full attention, plenty of belly rubs, and a calm, reliable routine that mirrors the comfort they have at home. Whether your pup is an energetic walker or a professional couch cuddler, I adapt to their unique personality and needs. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend and give you peace of mind knowing they are in safe, loving hands! My daily and weekly schedule is very consistent, which makes it easy to provide a reliable, stress-free routine for your dog. During the week, my schedule allows me to easily plan my day around a dog's needs. I am always home for dedicated morning, late afternoon, and evening care. Because my routine is highly structured, I can guarantee regular potty breaks, timely feedings, and medication administration on a strict schedule. My late afternoons, evenings, and weekends are wide open and entirely dedicated to pet care. Whether that means going for relaxed neighborhood walks, playing in the yard, or just offering quiet companionship on the couch, your dog will be a central part of my day. I treat guest dogs like family, fitting them seamlessly into a warm, attentive, and loving daily routine. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether a dog is staying with me or I am visiting them in their own home. Having raised three dogs of my own, I know how important a secure and predictable environment is for a pet's peace of mind. In My Home: I maintain a calm, dog-friendly, and completely smoke-free environment. Before any stay, I do a thorough safety sweep to ensure all hazards, cords, or human foods are securely out of reach. Dogs in my care are supervised closely, and I follow a strict double-check policy on all doors and gates when entering or exiting. In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it secure, clean, and exactly as you left it. During visits or house sits, I stick closely to your security routines (locking doors, arming alarms) and ensure your dog is safely secured inside before I leave. My Care Philosophy: Tailored to the Dog: I strictly adhere to your specific rules regarding furniture, feeding schedules, and crate training to keep their routine seamless. On-Leash Safety: I always keep dogs securely on-leash during walks and remain highly alert to our surroundings and other animals. Constant Communication: I love sending daily photo updates so you can see firsthand how happy, relaxed, and safe your pup is!
“What a great experience! Lauren communicates well and shred lots of pictures. Buddy got along with her dogs. Best of all Buddy felt comfortable enough to eat. Highly recommend Lauren.”

“Rhonda was fantastic! We needed a cat sitter on short notice and turned to the Rover app for the first time—so glad we found her. She responded quickly and was happy to help. We met beforehand and she was so friendly and easy to talk to. While we were away, she kept in great contact, sent us adorable pictures, and clearly took wonderful care of our cat, Q. He warmed up to her and trusts her, which says a lot! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely book her again.”
“Christine did a great job of dropping in on our two cats and making sure they were taken care of an comfortable! I had full confidence in her punctuality and ability to administer a supplement to our senior cat. Furthermore, she was flexible with an additional, last-minute drop-in booking to assist when other arrangements fell through. I cannot recommend her highly enough, and would definitely book her again care for our pets if the need arises!”
“We are so grateful to have Araya around to watch our boy for us! She takes the best pictures of him which is always so nice when we’re away. We’ve booked with her multiple times now and are always happy!”
About: Growing up with two dogs and a kitten sparked my lifelong love for animals. While I’m not yet in a position to adopt a pet of my own, my partner and I both grew up surrounded by furry friends and deeply miss the snuggles, walks, and unconditional love we shared with them back in our hometown. Caring for your pets would be a wonderful way for us to fill that space and share our love for animals! My partner and I both work full-time in professional roles Monday through Friday, but my workplace is conveniently close to home. This allows me the flexibility to take lunches and breaks as needed, ensuring I can meet your pet care needs with reliability and attention. I currently don’t have any pets in my apartment, but I live in a pet-friendly home with a backyard (unfenced) and easy access to nearby trails for walks, if that’s something your pet enjoys. I’m very relaxed when it comes to pet preferences—pets are welcome on furniture and even in bed with me! I’m happy to be flexible and follow your specific directions to ensure your pet feels right at home.
About: I've taken care of cats since I was 14, but I only just got my own cats in 2019. I'm used to scooping boxes, and deep cleaning them at least once a week. As long as I have enough treats and toys I can definitely try my best to work on fear issues. But either way I'll try to play, as long as they want to. And I've started giving my cat pills for his asthma so I have some experience.
About: I’ve had pets since I was a child. Dogs, cats, rats and fish :) Within the last 10 yrs my 16 yr old dog passed away, I had a special needs kitty and now have a small 7yr old dog along with fostering a large number of dogs of all sizes and breeds through a local group.
“Sara did a great job with our boys. Theo's shots (diabetic) can be a bit intimidating, at first, and she handled them beautifully. In addition, Louie is quite wary of new people and by mid-week his photos show that he's comfortable enough to come out and supervise what she was doing. We'll undoubtedly be booking future visits and would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone who's looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
About: am a cat owner myself and currently care for two cats with very different personalities and needs. I understand that cats thrive on routine, familiar surroundings, and patient care. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, administering medications when needed, playtime, companionship, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I will respect their unique personality and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I have extensive experience, caring for cats of all personalities. I understand cat body language and always respect their boundaries. i’m comfortable with shy, anxious, or independent cats and give them the space they need to feel safe. I focus on routines that matter to cats, including feeding, litter, box, care, playtime, and quiet time. I don’t force interactions. Cats are allowed to warm up naturally, and feel comfortable at their own pace. Period with years of personal experience, owning and caring for cats, I know how to provide patient, loving care that keeps them happy and stress-free.
About: 7 years of volunteering at a cat shelter, as well as three years of fostering cats in my home. Experience with kittens, senior cats, and everything in between. I have lived with cats since I was two years old, so I have experience cleaning litter boxes, brushing, playing, and feeding a variety of diets.
“Kiana was amazing during her drop in visits with our cats. She was able to get them to play and eat treats. She kept the litter boxes clean and the kitties happy. She even watered my plants! Kiana is a great communicator and I will definitely be using her again!”
“Karlie went above what we asked of her. She treated our girls like they were her own. She loved and took amazing care of them. I will gladly have Karlie take care of my girls again. Like i said you are amazing”
“Olivia was amazing. She took care of my 2 cats and made sure that Stormy, who is a bit shy ate every day even if it meant feeding him in weird spots. She gave Sunny plenty of attention! And towards the end I think even Stormy loved her!”
“We were so stressed about leaving our kitties for a long trip, but we really hit the jackpot when someone recommended Ajia to us. Lots of pictures and videos were shared with us, and we never worried about a thing! Highly recommend ❤️”
About: I love all kinds of furry friends! I have cared for and worked with cats for over 10 years. From check ins, feedings, play, special treats (if allowed), administering medication, etc. I have a cat of my own and she is an essential part of our family! I take care of every animal just like they are my own so you don’t have to stress when you are away. Your furry family member is in the best hands!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Shelby
“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!”
“Angela was excellent with my dog, Vaida! Vaida struggles adjusting to new surroundings, but Angela was a pro with her. Angela provided consistent communication & I was able to stay updated throughout the week. It was great to know Vaida was in good hands.”

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. I do this full time so I am usually always free to offer the most reliable and consistent pet care experience for your pet and I’m always available unless I’m watching other pets.

“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience working with Laura. She was quick to respond and it was easy coordinating our visits with her. The updates she provided gave us peace of mind that our dog Jordy was in good hands for the day. We would definitely work with her again in the future! Jordy seemed happy to spend the day with her in her home.”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. Growing up my family had a small hobby farm where we cared for many animals.

In my spare time I like taking care of animals, and if I can help others at the same time thats amazing as well. Im also trying to be a dog trainer and this will help. I always make sure my pets have food and water and something to entertain them.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds, including dogs, cats, and rabbits.

I treat every pet as if they were my own and worked hard to build trust so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident in my care.

Our oldest mutt needs constant brushing, our golden retriever needs weekly shaving, our terrier needs to be leashed when outside, our labrador needs her thunder shirt for storms, and our chihuahua needs training to be friendlier to guests. I am prepared for all kinds of pups!

“I just love this human for my pup!!!!! My pup LuCee is a very picky girl. On the meet and greet LuCee fell in love with Christine!! I could tell immediately it was a great fit. I was given details of Christine's visit and can rest assured LuCee is good to go till I get home. Having such an amazing person take care of my fur kiddo is priceless and gives me the peace of mind I need so I can finish my day!!! I appreciate Christine's phenomenal service!!!”
About: Since I was a young girl I've cared for cats and dogs in various settings. I've volunteered at humane societies, I've worked as a Vet Tech, was a supervisor at a daycare/boarding facility. I can administer insulin and other medications. Minor training experience in a professional setting. Can handle puppies to seniors. I will have plenty of time to devote to your pets, who really are our children. I am home a majority of the time with my own pets. I do not have a fenced in yard, I use a leash and walk my dog at least once a day, weather permitting. Potty breaks 2-4 hrs for my dog. I can travel as I have a 4wd vehicle. I will play and treat your pets as my own!
About: Hi! My name is Kiana! I live in La Crosse and work at Gundersen! I’m familiar with all types of dogs, and I can care for cats too! In fact, there's not many pets I wouldn't be willing to watch with the right fit. (Maybe not snakes though!) As your dog walker and sitter, I promise I will take pride in my work and treat your baby as my own. Send me a booking request and we can discuss timing and hopefully find a time that works! I always prefer to schedule a meet and greet whenever possible to go over any safety concerns, meet your pet and build trust, and to learn about your home and your fur baby! I work full time, and coming home from a long day at work to your dog or cat is the perfect end to my day! I care for your pets as my own. When I am at your home, I clean up after myself and your pet. I take pride in my work!

“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!”
“My dog stayed for an extended weekend and came home happy, healthy and tired from all the playing. Very happy with the service and will be using them again in the future.”
“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.
“Janelle was an amazing rover. Incredibly attentive, kind, and you can tell she has such a warm heart and is a true dog lover. She gave us consistent updates about our pup (including pictures)! She and her husband even took our dog on a two mile walk since she knew we had a long drive back home. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Matt and his family were so accommodating and welcoming to S’mores! His kids were so sweet and I believe they had the best time with their furry guest. It was a short notice request and communication was smooth and straightforward. We will definitely book with Matt again when we’re in the area! Thank you Matt and family!”
“What a great experience! Lauren communicates well and shred lots of pictures. Buddy got along with her dogs. Best of all Buddy felt comfortable enough to eat. Highly recommend Lauren.”
“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!”
