“Emily and her family took great care of my pup! She send lots of pictures and I truly felt like she cared for my dog as her own. Her house was clean and inviting and she was easy to communicate with. I would book with her 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.”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
“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!”
“Bobbie and Clark are great! Friendly and communicates well. They were very welcoming and attentive to Gracie’s needs and what we were looking for. Definitely one of my favorite dog families! Will be boarding with them again!”
“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful! Her and her family took amazing care of Monty while we were away — sending regular updates, photos, and making sure he got plenty of love, walks, and playtime. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. I’d definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Clooney Marie was very well taken care of by Chase & Jessica. This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous at first. Highly recommend this couple. This dog mama was so happy my girl was in a good place with good people.”
“Gina provided complete security and peace of mind for our first time leaving Charlie for an extended length of time. Communication was consistent and detailed with adorable photos. Absolutely will use Gina again in the future, highly recommend”
“Chelsea and her family have been watching Bowser and Bali regularly and it is always such a comfort to know they are in such good hands while I’m traveling for work. They love coming over and runs to the door every time we get here. And Chelsea is so thoughtful in the way that she will help to make sure that the visit goes well. We could not recommend Chelsea more! She is amazing!!”
“Morgan had a wonderful time. She has an autoimmune disorder that causes chronic arthritis. They did a great job of caring for her and understanding her needs. Highly recommend.”
“Laura was friendly and made the whole process of setting up the sitting arrangement so easy to work with. The communication was great—we received regular, fun updates and photos of our dog, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pup was being well-cared for and having a blast. We highly recommend!”
“I'm thrilled to share my fantastic experience with Kristina, who cared for Hiro. Hiro had an incredible time and returned home happy and content. Kristine provided excellent care, and I appreciated her commitment to ensuring Hiro's well-being. She helped burn energy out of my high-energy Samoyed pup; I highly recommend her services! I will definitely book with her again when I go out of town!”
“Very responsive and kind. Our dog seemed very happy and they kept us updated throughout his stay. We will definitely be using them again next time we need someone to watch our dog. :)”
“Frank & Julie are Phenomenal! I was quite nervous about trying again to find temporary care for my dog after a poor experience on another pet sitting app. I read all the other positive reviews for this couple and anxiously decided to move forward with booking. I am so pleased with the care they provided! I feel they went above and beyond for my dog. I'm so grateful I found them instead of boarding, where he'd have had very little attention and interaction. Instead he got the love and attention he could want and all the comforts of home. I will happily continue to use their service.”
“Kathy accommodated me with a meet n greet the day before boarding. Zoe and Sadie enjoyed their time at Kathy's house playing with the other dogs. Kathy was very helpful and interested in learning about the dogs background and eating habits. In 2 out of the 3 photos Sadie was smiling which tells me she was enjoying her time there. I will book again another time.”
“Savannah did a wonderful job taking care of our little pooch for two nights. She was very accommodating of our schedule and we greatly appreciated it. We will not hesitate to have her watch him again! Both of our Rover.com experiences so far have been 5 star!”
“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.”
“Another amazing time with Dallas and Co. I could tell Blue had another great stay with her and was pretty tuckered out when we got home, Blue looks forward to the next stay and can't wait!”

“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.”
“We love having Briana pet sit for our two kitties while we are away. We are confident that they are being well cared for. She is very accommodating and great at taking care of our pets. Thank you Briana!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my childhood. In the past two ish years I’ve watched some family members dogs. And for a little over a year I had two cats with my roommate. I don’t have skills I’m just here for a good time lol. The weekends I have available I’ll be free for the most part. Maybe some volunteering for a max of 4 hours but that’s it. Other request I’d have to see based off my work schedule. I would do everything instructed of me. Feed at scheduled time (or make sure there is food in the bowl). Fresh water every day. Try to play outside depending on weather.
“Emma is fantastic! Would recommend to any family with fur babies! She is super helpful and flexible and communicates so well. I can relax and enjoy my time away knowing our animals are well cared for!”
About: If your smaller non-shedding dog (up to 40 lbs) does not care for other pets, I'm your sitter! There are no other pets in my house, and I specialize in dogs who do not like other animals. I have owned and loved dogs my entire adult life. In retirement I've chosen not to own one, but I miss those little guys so much and would love to love on your precious pet. I am retired and can fully care for your smaller (up to 40#), potty-trained, non-shedding dog. On weekends in the summer I may talk to you about your friend joining me at my camper. I will provide care for your smaller non-shedding dog without other animals in my home. Perfect for those cuddlers who would rather not have competition for my attention!
“Kari did a wonderful job with my pups! She was extremely responsive and helpful, even when my weekend plans went awry and we came home early. I will definitely be reaching out again if I need someone to stop in to care for my dogs.”
“Great experience! Sara took wonderful care of my pet, always arrived within the timeframe, spent the entire allotted time giving love and affection, sent pics, asked great questions. Will definitely use Sara again!”
“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 :)”
“Rebecca was very communicative about any questions she had with our cats (Hazelnut & Pistachio). We were very impressed with pistachio being friendly and social with Rebecca on visit one as she is skiddish when it comes to strangers. There was a day during the booking that the visit of the time needed to be adjusted and it was communicated before our booking and again during to make sure the feedings were rescheduled accordingly.”
“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: I’ve been around cats my entire life and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. I currently have a cat of my own and also care for kitty clients through my pet care business. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, medication if needed, and giving cats the patience and gentle attention they deserve.
“Michelle was fantastic! She kept me posted with pictures at the visit times. She also talked me through what to expect while using Rover since it was my first time using the service. Thank you so much Michelle!”
“Hannah was able to come over on short notice to watch our puppy. She sent a video of him having fun outside to give us peice mind. She went above and beyond and stayed with him for extra time, as well as leaving our space clean and tidy. We would recommend Hannah 😊”
“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”
About: As a long time owner of dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles I have the skills, patience, and experience to safely and lovingly watch over your fur friend/s. Being around all the pets especially dogs has always been a natural passion of mine. As much of a service this is for you and your dog, it is also very much beneficial to my own health and well being. I have learned over the years that dogs respond very well to my voice, commands, and body language. A lot of love, care, and compassion to give. I have an open schedule and availability with flexibility to meet any requests! Monday-Sunday. Mornings, Afternoons, or Evenings. I look forward to being a helping hand in enhancing the lifespan and overall well being of your best friend :) My current daily routine and schedule is in need of dog walking and pet sitting. I am focusing on pet care and curating a more pet filled lifestyle. Although I will not be using my own home for pet care services, I can guarantee that the level of care given will be treated as if it were my own.

“Charlie and Luca had a wonderful time with Emily and her family! We were so grateful for the excellent care they provided. We were thrilled to receive updates and photos throughout the day about their activities. They both came home happy and tired from a fun day. I would highly recommend Emily!”
“Our rescues feel comfortable going to Bobbie and Clark’s and love to snuggle with the whole family. Thank you for giving them a secure environment away from home!”
“We had a last-minute Rover request, and Bobbi responded quickly and made booking easy. Even though it was a short stay, we could tell our dog had a great time especially with Mercy, their adorable pug! Bobbi shared updates and photos, and Nova seemed to really enjoy their spacious backyard. Bobbi was so kind and welcoming. We’d absolutely recommend her to others!”
“My Jojo loved her stay with Maria today! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. I appreciated all the timely communication- even before we arrived. Amazing service. Thank you so much!”
“Great experience, Ally did a great job watching Bart. She was very accommodating with us. After meeting both her an Coy we felt very comfortable leaving Bart in her care. We would definitely let her watch him again.”
About: I’m the type of person who goes to a party and makes friends with the dog. My friends know I’m around when they see a blanket covering up their sleeping pup. My family has nicknamed me dog girl because I take on the challenge of caring for all of them during family functions. I have experience with dogs who need medication, eye drops, ear drops, or who have health issues. I work from home so I am able to hangout with your pet all day! I have a very flexible work schedule if appointments are needed. I prefer to care for dogs in my home but can watch in your home, let out during the day, and check on your home if away. At my home I leash all pets when letting them out. Dogs are allowed on my furniture, I even have a chair next to my work desk incase they want to lounge around on the job.
About: I'm a dog person through and through! I've only ever owned dogs my whole life, and I'd never have it any other way. Training them, playing with them, caring for them, it all fills my heart with so much joy. To me, dogs are one of life's greatest gifts, a true blessing from God. They love without conditions and make every day a little brighter. I wouldn't trade a single wagging tail or muddy paw print for anything. I work from home, so your pups will never be left alone for long. While I'm in my office, they'll have Stryda as a built-in playmate, and together the pack keeps each other happy, busy, and engaged throughout the day. Between their playtime and my breaks to check in, cuddle, and toss a ball around, your dogs will get plenty of love and attention, just like my own. I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I’m great with communication and more than glad to send you daily updates on how your pup(s) doing with me! Your pup will feel right at home with me! I have a fenced yard and a loving Australian Shepherd named Stryda, who’s sweet and playful with all dogs. Your dog will always have fresh water, plenty of playtime, and a comfy, safe space to relax. I’ll keep them active, well cared for, and showered with attention throughout the day. Whether it’s a good play session, a cozy nap, or just some cuddles, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own, and I’m always happy to keep you updated however you’d like.
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 have taken care of animals since I was roughly 14 years old, my mom travels a lot and has 4 large dogs that I take care of monthly. I am always down for a walk (or three)! I am knowledgeable on feedings, bathing, giving medications, and an array of other pupper needs! Plus, a day at the dog park is a day well spent! I work from home on a set schedule so I’m always available for furry friend company! Please message me for any additional availability questions as I am quite flexible. Safe and secure home, with the ability to kennel if you prefer. Will do multiple walks throughout day for boarding dogs. If you have a set schedule for potty breaks, feedings, etc I am more than willing to go over that and stick to your schedule!
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even the more unique critters! I have experience with animals of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets who need a little extra TLC. As a proud pet parent to two Great Danes, I understand just how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. My top priorities are making sure your pets feel happy, safe, and comfortable while you're away, and I treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine—I’m a stay-at-home mom, and I work around my kids’ homeschooling schedule. That means I’m home throughout the day and night, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. If your pet is staying with us for boarding, they’ll never be left alone—we’re always home, and your furry friend will be treated like part of the family. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday cuddles, or nighttime check-ins, I have the flexibility to meet your pet’s needs with love and consistency. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where animals can relax and feel at home—whether I’m visiting your house or welcoming your pet into mine. I follow each pet’s unique routine and take time to understand their needs, behaviors, and preferences. I’m experienced with crates, medications, feeding routines, and even a little light training reinforcement if needed. In our home, your pet will be surrounded by love and never left alone—we’re always home, and your pet will get plenty of attention and care. I live with two gentle Great Danes and two calm, pet-friendly cats, all of whom are well-socialized and respectful of new guests. We keep our environment clean, peaceful, and low-stress to make every pet feel safe and welcome. I’m also happy to go the extra mile—whether that means watering your plants, bringing in packages, or keeping you updated with sweet photo messages. I truly care about your pets and your peace of mind.
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.
“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!”
“This is the second time I’ve booked with Don for doggy daycare. He sends photo and video updates throughout the day and takes time to ensure my dog is having fun at him home! There is lots of space for him to run and play outside. Don is the best when it comes to communicating and caring for my pup.”

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.
“Travis is great! He was awesome about taking things at my dog's pace and is super professional and flexible. I'm glad to have found him and to have him as my dog walker!”
“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 been caring for animals for most of my life and started walking dogs when I was 11 years old. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs, cats, and many other pets of my own. I am comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels, including senior pets, rescues, and shy animals who need extra patience and care. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love building trust with each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is my full-time and only job, so I’m able to offer flexible scheduling, dependable communication, and plenty of attention for your pets. I’m typically available all days of the week, including daytime hours, with occasional exceptions depending on scheduling and personal appointments. I truly love what I do and treat every pet as if they were my own. I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. During drop-in visits, I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level while providing plenty of care, affection, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, meals, medications if needed, and cleanup. I understand that trust is incredibly important when someone is caring for both your pets and your home, so I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to details. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel loved and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages since I was in elementary school. I have had family dogs all my life and now I have 2 dogs of my own. I raised one as a puppy and then adopted his brother about 2 years later. Raising my dogs has educated me in all the needs a dog possibly needs from food/water to stimulation to exercise. I’m around many weekends so I have a lot of flexibility and open time to drop in and take care of your dog! Whether it’s taking them for longs walks or just hanging out and keeping them company. If my dogs could talk they would probably tell you they are the kings of the house. The dogs in my home are treated like humans. Nothing but the best. They are allowed on furniture, beds, toys are out all day long. Having very high energy dogs of my own, I often go on many walks and hikes all around the area.
About: I’ve had and taken care of many different breeds in my lifetime, mostly medium to smaller mixed breeds and I’ve also taken care of doodles I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats that I spend my days with. Always start with a morning walk down our local hiking trail We have gates to keep them in safe spaces including keeping our daughter away from them if necessary but she’s also very gentle with them
About: Hi there, my name is Becky. I do not have dog sitting experience but I love dogs. I just recently lost our beloved golden Emma 2 months ago. She was 12 years old. I am using Rover to help heal and help with other dog lovers out there and care for their loved ones! I work Monday-Thursday. I can help on Thursday afternoons after 1pm and Friday-Sundays most weekends. My husband works every other weekend so my availability the weekends he works is pretty open! I love to walk and run. Not saying I need to run with your doggo unless he or she loves to do so! I know summer can be difficult with the heat and winter can be brutally cold. I will take every precaution to keep your dog safe.
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.
About: Hi! I’m new on Rover so would love to build some clientele! You will not be disappointed:) I’ve grew up with dogs my whole life and rescued my own about 2 years ago.

I can accommodate to any care needs and requests. I have a larger crate if needed at my home.

About: Hello! I’m Taylor, a 23 year old animal lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Since I was young, I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors by walking dogs, 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.

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a little girl. Since I’ve been married we’ve had three dogs ( and one special needs) ; all of different breeds. I’ve had ones who love to walk well, seniors who take their time, to the deaf dogs who just love to sniff anything they can find. I like to call them humans with fur. Absolutely love dogs! Now that I’m retired, I walk a lot anyway and I’m finding myself wanting to help those who can’t get their fur babies out for those walks that are so important for them. We put our beloved 10 year old (deaf girl) down this past January and plan on getting another dog by the new year. We walked her many times throughout the day too, until she couldn’t. I believe dogs should be walked at least twice a day if not more. I miss the wagging tails and the love those babies give! I strongly believe that walking the dog is an essential part of their happiness, routine, and growth. I walk a lot and do boot camp three times a week also so I am strong and physically able.
About: Walks and exercise for your furry friends would be no problem! I own two very well behaved boys (cat's) that don't mind being around dogs, as long as they're not trying to eat them haha. I live in a smaller 2 bedroom house with a good size yard in a quiet neighborhood. I'm 38 years old, I moved to Appleton about 8 years ago. I'm looking for fun ways to exercise as well as getting my dog fix in. I grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Labs, Yorkies, Terriers, and Chihuahuas to name a few. I'm a fun trustworthy individual that absolutely loves animals, so if you're looking for someone to spoil your pup or cat and give them extra attention. I'm your gal! I'm looking for more ways to stay active, and I just love animals. Let me walk your fur babies or play with them, I know it will make us all happy! I will follow the pet owners instructions and your dog or cat will be in great hands! Walks or just a drop in visit to play!
About: I’ve had two dogs for 9 years, and I am their primary caretaker! My older dog is easy, so I know how to have fun with calm pets, but my younger is quite the handful, so I can handle for and care for with love for any type of pet! I’m available all the time! Whenever you need me, I’ll be there. I have quite a free schedule, so feel free to reach out and you’ll be sure to find reliable pet care with me! I have two harness leashes, perfect for keeping the pet safe and keeping them under control. I have experience with pets misbehaving and know exactly how to safely and lovingly help them. I also have a wide variety of treats on hand, ready to give to your pets to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible!
About: I’ve been in the healthcare field for over 5 years. My specialty is taking care of those who can’t take care of themselves. I’ve been a boarder and sitter with Wag for over three years and have had my own pups in the past before I enlisted active duty. Being able to care for pups gives me so much joy as a single woman with no children. I love to go on walks, dog parks and will make sure your pup gets all the care and attention he or she needs including giving meds if needed, bathing, and even mail clipping upon request. I currently work full time in the navy so I do most of my boarding on weekends but I do have a roommate that works an opposite shift and helps walk, play with, and take the pups to go potty when I’m at work throughout the day. I wake up early to let the pups out, and walk them either to the park or around the complex after work, set play dates (if the pup likes other doggies) and walk them and take them out before I go to bed as well. I have a very large open living room and solarium that allows the pups to have their own space to play and run around when it’s raining outside and the park is not optional for play time. I also have a large kitchen area with enough space for pet bowls and beds and I do allow the pups to sleep in the bed if they prefer. I do not have any safety concerns as my home is pup-proof. I take frequent potty breaks and am a light sleeper. Most pups I have boarded know how to let me know when they need to go outside, and for those who don’t, I go on a set schedule right after feedings and every few hours (2-4) depending on the pups age. More frequently if they are still potty training. I do take the dogs to the dog park for play time, exercise and activities.
About: I have years of experience caring for my own pets and pet-sitting for others. My experience includes all age ages and sizes of dogs and cats, including rescue animals, French bulldogs, pitbulls and Persian cats. I also have some experience with giving medication to pets and caring for small animals such as hedgehogs and rabbits. I love all kinds of animals and take pride in understanding and respecting a pet's unique needs and boundaries, such as petting and feeding needs. I look forward to giving your pet the same love and respect I give my own! Over this summer I am completely flexible as I will be attending university at the start of fall. I will have a very flexible schedule for both booking appointments and playing/walking with your animals. I like to keep a strict feeding schedule-which can fit to your pets needs if they already have one-and a minimum walk time of 30 minutes daily. Pets are allowed everywhere in both yard and home. If needed or wanted I am willing and happy to send daily photos and/or videos of your pet to you for peace of mind!
About: My whole life I’ve lived with and taken care of pets, ranging from puppies and kittens to 13yr doggos and a 17yr old cat who we call granny. My friends and family have always trusted me to babysit and even take in their animals when necessary. I’ve also had a rabbit, hamsters, guinea pigs, birds and taken care of my sisters ferrets so I have a vast animal care knowledge. One of my current dogs is from a shelter and has PTSD so I also am well versed in dogs with anxiety and fears. I love my fur babies and make sure they’re taken care of, but I would love to meet and spoil more! There is always time for extra love! I always make sure everybody has water and has had enough to eat, as well as routine potty breaks to avoid accidents. I will always adapt for each pets needs!

“Emily and her family took great care of my pup! She send lots of pictures and I truly felt like she cared for my dog as her own. Her house was clean and inviting and she was easy to communicate with. I would book with her again!”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
“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!”
“Gina provided complete security and peace of mind for our first time leaving Charlie for an extended length of time. Communication was consistent and detailed with adorable photos. Absolutely will use Gina again in the future, highly recommend”
“Chelsea and her family have been watching Bowser and Bali regularly and it is always such a comfort to know they are in such good hands while I’m traveling for work. They love coming over and runs to the door every time we get here. And Chelsea is so thoughtful in the way that she will help to make sure that the visit goes well. We could not recommend Chelsea more! She is amazing!!”
“Laura was friendly and made the whole process of setting up the sitting arrangement so easy to work with. The communication was great—we received regular, fun updates and photos of our dog, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pup was being well-cared for and having a blast. We highly recommend!”
“Very responsive and kind. Our dog seemed very happy and they kept us updated throughout his stay. We will definitely be using them again next time we need someone to watch our dog. :)”
“Frank & Julie are Phenomenal! I was quite nervous about trying again to find temporary care for my dog after a poor experience on another pet sitting app. I read all the other positive reviews for this couple and anxiously decided to move forward with booking. I am so pleased with the care they provided! I feel they went above and beyond for my dog. I'm so grateful I found them instead of boarding, where he'd have had very little attention and interaction. Instead he got the love and attention he could want and all the comforts of home. I will happily continue to use their service.”
“Kathy accommodated me with a meet n greet the day before boarding. Zoe and Sadie enjoyed their time at Kathy's house playing with the other dogs. Kathy was very helpful and interested in learning about the dogs background and eating habits. In 2 out of the 3 photos Sadie was smiling which tells me she was enjoying her time there. I will book again another time.”
“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.”
“Another amazing time with Dallas and Co. I could tell Blue had another great stay with her and was pretty tuckered out when we got home, Blue looks forward to the next stay and can't wait!”
“Jasmine was fantastic! She is very professional, always responded quickly to any questions, and took great care of our puppy. She helped with some training (as the puppy was only 12 weeks old) and her own dog, Stryda, was a great playmate and teacher for our puppy.”
“We had a great experience with Jill! From the beginning, she was super responsive and easy to communicate with. She took excellent care of our dog and kept us updated with pictures during his stay. She even brought him to our wedding so we could get a picture with him. Jill is so sweet and we will definitely be booking her again!”
“Susan was wonderful to work with when trying to find a sitter for our dog. She was quick to respond and was so kind to our dog. I loved that she sent pictures while we were away. I highly recommend Susan. :)”

“Chad and Beth were the best! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience - they sent lots of pictures, made sure Tucker was active, and took him on fun adventures. He was so happy when I picked him up and I’m hoping I have the chance to utilize their service again :)”
“Alysa took great care of our dog! She’s super sweet and very easy to work with. You can tell she really cares for each animal she watches. We have a very high-energy dog, so we were thankful when she took him to a dog park so he could run around even more one of the days. Hawk had a great time with Alysa!”
