Highly-rated overnight sitters - Sugar Island
“Once again Katie and DJ have taken excellent care of my special needs pup. He is so happy to go to their house, he doesn’t even care that I am leaving. LOL 😂 seriously amazing family that love the animals they care for.”
“I can not say enough about the outstanding care our dog received from Scott and Ashley. We received frequent updates and messages to keep us up to date. We are so very grateful that they invited our dog into their home.”
“Cheryl and Josh were wonderful sitters for my dog Molly. They treated her as if she was their own dog. Cheryl was respectful of all the requests that I had made for Molly's stay. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures that Cheryl shared. It was a great comfort for me knowing that I did not have to worry about Molly while I was away on vacation. We will be booking with Cheryl and Josh again!!”
“Highly recommend! Heather put my mind at ease while away from my fur baby. She sent daily updates/photos to assure me all was well with my pup. Heather worked with my dog on some behavioral issues as well! She treated my dog as one of her own, truly happy with how the extended overnight stay went; hope to use her again and again in the future”
“Ellen was wonderful. Not only did she take Winnie on short notice, she made us feel so comfortable leaving Winnie behind. She was a master at easing Winnie in and making her feel at home. She sent us regular updates with photos and video so we could share her experience. Thank you Ellen! Winnie will definitely be back!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we didn't know quite what to expect. We set up a meet and greet to make sure it would be a good fit. As soon as my dog got out of the car, I could tell she was going to like it there. Alex was very communicative during the whole stay and sent daily pictures of how my dog was doing. This made us very happy to know she was in good hands while we were gone. We will definitely work with Alex again!”
“David was/is amazing! Why? He was responsive and accommodating. His extensive knowledge of dogs was clear when we met him - we knew our pups were in good hands. We received daily updates and in each photo the dogs looked like they were having the time of their lives and/or taking a nap on David’s lap 😂. We live downtown Madison and I could tell our pups enjoyed the beautiful country property as they came back tired and content! As a former Rover, I would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a sitter. 10/10!!”
“Marie took wonderful care of our dog, Ace, while we were out of town for a week. She sent daily updates with photos. He got lots of walks and playtime in her big yard outside. He also enjoyed playing with the other dogs and was able to sleep on the couch just like he does at home. It was so nice not to have to have him in a kennel. I would not hesitate to rebook with Marie!”
“We have a very challenging dog who was a rescue, she has a lot of quirks and Jenifer has been very kind and patient in caring for Poppy. Poppy would not do well in a kennel setting and having a loving home for her to stay is a real blessing!”
“5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!”
“Gianina was a great host to Kona! She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend! She had a great yard for him to explore, and she took him on nice walks. We will definitely book with her again if we travel!”
“Walker's stay was even more amazing than the last one. He played with lots of new buddies and charmed "grandma". They were so kind to keep in an extra day and take him with them to their 4th of July celebration. We received tons of pics that made our our time away from him relaxing. It was comforting to see him get a vacation too. We are forever grateful!”
“This is a repeat of a fantastic experience, my pup loves coming over! Always great videos and pictures, and this time a splash pad experience which was amazing and hilarious. Thank you so much!!”
“We are return customers and we are so thrilled with the care Homer gets at Anna's. He is treated like one of the family and absolutely loves it there. Our family has no hesitation leaving Homer with Ana because we know he will be getting the best possible care while we are away. ”

“Sadie did a great job! It was our first pet sitting venture, and my first time with Rover, which is always a bit nerve-wracking with our fur babies. But I was very pleased, and she tolerated, understood and followed my detailed instructions well. Thanks, Sadie and Rover! I'll definitely have you back!”
“Katie was amazing with our 2 cats! They came out to greet her each time she stopped by and she was extremely attentive, respectful, and responsive. Katie was there when she said she would be and provided top-notch feedback/updates. It was our first time using a sitter that wasn’t a friend or family and we were so happy we went with her! Absolutely will be contacting Katie again for future needs!”
“Shannon was a great pet sitter for our 2 cats. She always replied with photos of each visit and even went above and beyond by cleaning out the litter box. I would highly recommend using her services for your pets needs.”
“It was so nice to have Bella cat/house sit for us on our recent trip. So comforting to know our cats had a person to spend time with in the evenings and give them lots of attention. She also left our place super clean! Would definitely ask back. Thanks Bella!”
“Katelyn did a wonderful job of taking care of our 2 fur babies and our home. She sent pics and videos to us on a daily basis and asked questions when she needed to. I would highly recommend her”
“Deedee is wonderful! Our cat is usually very shy and hides but she came out and got her meds and treats. I had no worries with Deedee taking care of our girl and highly recommend her services!!!!”
“Meghan did a fabulous job taking care of my two cats! She was able to give my little female a daily med like a pro, and she spoiled both of them with attention and love!! Since I was out of town for about a week, it gave me such peace of mind to know both kitties were given such wonderful TLC!!??”
“Ramsey stepped in last minute to care for our kitties and was wonderful! She took such great care of them and kept us updated with plenty of photos and video! We are so thankful to find someone we trust when we are away who love our kitties like we do!”
About: I’ve owned cats my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally for me. I currently own a cat of my own, finnigan, and he means the absolute world to me. Because I know how much pets are part of the family, I treat every cat with the same patience, attention, and care that I give my own. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playing and respecting each cats unique personality. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, and keep you updated with photos and messages so that you can have peace of mind.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.
About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. As a special education teacher, I spend my days building trust, creating routines, and providing individualized support—skills that translate naturally to pet care. I have experience with both dogs and cats, from energetic young pets to seniors who need a gentler approach. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while providing owners with peace of mind through dependable care and updates. 🐾💕
“We are delighted to have had Anna housesit for our 3 cats. It was obvious how relaxed they were from her updates & pictures of our happy, playful cats! Our 3 girls want Anna to return!!”
“Charles was great! Very professional and responsive to any questions and any instructions we left. Sent lots of pictures and updates and our cat seemed very happy and well taken care of when we returned. We will definitely use him in the future and would recommend him to anyone!”
About: I grew up fostering cats and kittens for HAWS, was a volunteer dog walker for three years (where I did basic leash etiquette and training), and more recently fostered a Mastiff. I have experience doing overnights, with up to four dogs. I love training animals and even taught my family cat to come when called, sit, and shake hands. I've also owned almost every type of small pet (hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, hedgehog, and bunnies) so I'm very comfortable with a variety of animals. I work full time, but live very close to work for check ins and potty breaks and I am free all day on Thursdays and the weekends. With my experience with foster pets, I'm used to gaining the trust of animals and I know what it takes to keep them safe. I also understand the body language and variety of responses to look for to know if your pet is feeling anxious or uncomfortable and I'll always get to the bottom of what's bothering them.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sugar Island
“We had a last minute booking that they were able to accommodate. Great communication before and during stay. We loved getting pics and video, too! Boone well loved and comfortable during his stay. Came home a very happy guy.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with our little sweet pup. He had a walk, breaks, fun with his ball. Heather was extremely accommodating and flexible. Once you meet her, she outs you at immediate ease. Will happily use her again!”
About: I have always had a dog growing up, so I learned from a very young age how to care for a pet. Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their dogs since I was around 12 years old. This includes stopping in the house to take them to the bathroom and feeding them, as well as giving medication if needed. Lots of snuggles and playtime too of course! I have taken care of dogs in the client's home for up to a week and cared for them at my home as well. No need to worry about any complex feeding schedules. I can manage it all. I am very comfortable with any age, breed, and sized dog! I have a one-year-old pup, so I am very familiar with training and puppy classes. I have volunteered at the humane society and when I was in high school, I job shadowed at a veterinary clinic. I currently work as a substitute teacher so my schedule is extremely flexible! During the summer months I am completely open. Weekdays and weekends any time of day. I make my own schedule so there will be no conflicts. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for some off leash playtime! My dog loves to run around playing fetch with a ball or stick. I have a walking path across the street from my home and am walking distance to nature hill for some extra exercise. I always have water, waste bags and small treats with me when going on walks. (My dogs personal favorites are cheerios). I am comfortable walking with any leash, collar or harness. I have two kennels in my living room if your dog needs to be crated. At least one crate is big enough to fit a large or XL dog. I have a baby gate in front of my stairs, and the basement door is always shut. I personally love going to the pet store or drive thru to get my pet a pup cup! I would be more than happy to take your dog for an adventure and for some extra love and enrichment!
“Molly takes the best care of my pup! She provides updates and gives him so much attention, he always comes home exhausted! She is excellent and I highly recommend for anyone needing boarding or daycare!”
About: Hello! I'm Susu and I would love to care for your pet. I've been caring for animals since a very young age. My family and I would always bring in and care for fosters and strays, along with our own. Learning to train pups at such a young age has made it one of my biggest passions. I understand that every dog is different and it's all about learning who they are. I adapt and adjust to any dogs needs until they are happy and comfortable. Of course playtime is great but I will also inforce balance by having them do tricks and giving rewards. I believe in positive reinforcement and encouraging them to be their best furry selves. I will truly love your pet like my own. I do have a dog of my own named lexus. She is a rescue so she can be a little wary of strangers but is never shy around another furry friend! She has been socialized all of her life and loves to run and play. She understands social cues very well so if the other dog is uninterested in playing she will leave them alone. If Lexus and your dog meet I'm sure they will be best of friends! Whether it's just a walk or they stay a few nights I cant wait to meet your pup! My schedule is very flexible. I am a stay at home mom, photographer, mua and an artist. I am open to last minute scheduling if needed or scheduling something further in advance. Something consistent and on going would be preferred but if it’s just a one time thing that is okay with me as well! For walks we will go on a walk around the block. If needed we will work on not pulling the leash. For a boarding visit I will get them all set up and comfortable in my house. If it’s nice out we will go for a walk and play outside. Playing indoors as well and working on tricks they know or maybe learning a new one. Potty breaks will be provided whenever needed and food will be given as directed.
“Kristin took great care of Ace the 2 days he stayed there. She tries to make him comfortable even though he was suffering from separation anxiety. She sent photos both days. Thank you.”
“Roger is a great sitter and I would highly recommend him for any dog care. He watched our dog, Kam, who is an anxious boy. Roger was very patient and understanding to his personality. Fast forward to 3 days later, Kam was pulling on the leash to get to Roger's house. We received plenty of pictures and updates as well.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I love to walk and play with them and also have snuggle time if they like that. My schedule is flexible to accommodate their needs! I have not done injections but am willing to do if trained I’m retired so I have plenty of time to care for your pet in my home or come to your home for check-ins and walks. I have a fenced yard and am close to a local state park for long walks. I also live in a very walkable subdivision. I don’t mind a well behaved pet on furniture.
About: Agnes Mable, my dachshund of 12 years taught me patience better than anyone. I love spending time cuddling, giving belly rubs, sniffling frito feet, & running around the yard chasing them like a screaming banshee. I stay at friends & neighbors houses frequently when they're away to watch their dogs, cats, & fish. I also have friends & neighbors dogs over for weeks at a time. I've been doing this the since moving back to Wisconsin in April 2024. I love taking care of pets like their my own. Once I have a fenced in yard, I will welcome another dachshund into my life, but until then I fill my cup with caring for other's doggos & kitty cats. I'm excited to meet you! Extra treats for pugs & extra belly rubs for the heavy weights that can fetch & return! I work from home & the days I'm traveling for work will be unavailable to book. We'll spend all day together! I've got a spacious yard, large back deck that gets direct sun light for the one's that like to bake, & if they get along with other dogs, sometimes I walk over to my sisters with them to meet my favorite pug, Potato! I live in a duplex on the bottom floor so it's easy in & out, no stairs. My yard is massive with lots of plants & trees to sniff around. I'll always take my fur friends outside on a leash. I do have a small crate available for dogs under 15 pounds, toys, treats, & extra leashes just in case you forget something. Most importantly, I have a big lamby & a small lamby.
About: I have taken care of my own pets, as well as many others in my home. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me with their loved pets! I am currently working part time and mostly from home. I am in school part time from home as well, so I can be with your pet the entire time. I have a fenced in yard and only 1 dog myself. I can walk dogs. I can crate them if needed. I can offer baths as well!
About: Dogs are a big part of our daily life. We have two of our own—a friendly Golden Retriever, Oakley, and a playful Bernedoodle, Teddy—so I’m very familiar with different energy levels, personalities, and routines. I have hands-on experience with: • Daily walks, playtime, and exercise • Feeding schedules and portion control • Crate routines and basic training consistency • Managing multiple dogs at once • Recognizing behavior changes and keeping dogs comfortable Because I work from home, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. They’ll get consistent attention, outdoor time, and a structured but relaxed environment. We also have a fenced-in yard, which allows for safe play and movement throughout the day. Our home is set up to be dog-friendly, and I treat every dog like part of the family—while still respecting their routine so they feel secure. Flexible availability for mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on scheduling. I work from home and can provide all your pets needs in our home.

“David was beyond amazing with my two dogs. He is such a genuine and friendly person! I am a person that is super anxious when i’m not around my dogs. I did however felt such a sense of relief when David watched my two pups. He did send updated pictures threwout the day and my pups looked so happy! I will for sure be a returning client. I can’t say enough, he is wonderful!”
“Just like everyone else, Teddy and I love her! Great home away from home for your fur baby. ? We’ll be coming back over and over again. I’m pretty sure he would’ve been happy to move right in with her permanently ❤️”
About: Hello! My family and I love animals. We've been on Rover since January 2024! We currently have 2 indor cats and have backyard chickens (in coop) that are pets and lay eggs for us. We live in a quiet Hartland neighborhood in a cul-de-sac that is very low traffic. Part of our yard is fenced for play and potty breaks, and I love taking walks around our neighborhood. The majority of the week, my husband is working from home or I am home. The longest your pet may be left is 6 hours if staying with us during the work week. So usually someone is there to spend time with your pet! We are available any day of the week for boarding. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac. I always practice sit-stay when opening the door to prevent bolting out. Part of our yard is fenced and outside the fence your pet will always be leashed. If I am away for a short period and it's needed for safety or per your preference, we do have a large crate and an enclosed pet gate.

I would love to get back into walking and socializing dogs looking for good homes! I love being able to help them find new homes! I just have a connection with dogs and love being around them! I currently work during the day but am free nights and weekends and would love to meet your member(s) of the family! :)
About: I have been a CVT for 18 years, actively working at an emergency/specialty clinic. I can care for all ages and sizes of dogs and cats. I have a part time job that is flexible, my main focus is pet care and services. I am available most days and hours. I am pet sitting or caring for pets on a daily basis. I will utilize your house to care for your pets so they are more comfortable and less stressed. I will follow your daily routines to keep them feeling secure.
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals, dogs being the main one. Love carin for dogs and always making them feel loved, even when owners may have to be away. What better way to spoil your pet then to make sure they have a great day too! I am the kind of person that would go to a party and hang out with the dog. I have excoerience in caring for both people and animals and hope that I may be able to help care for more. I will always be focused on what you are looking for for your dog and making sure that they get the time and love they deserve each day. Hope to talk to you soon. ? ❤️ We are a working household but have staggered start and end times so very little time is left alone. During that time dogs can remain out if possible or can be crated. Our dogs are crate trained for this time as well, though not always done. We have two friendly, though large dogs to keep yours company. We also have 2 cats, but can be placed in a different area of the house as needed. Have 2 meal times per day and can adjust to fit needs. Always have water available and frequent outside time.

“Once again Katie and DJ have taken excellent care of my special needs pup. He is so happy to go to their house, he doesn’t even care that I am leaving. LOL 😂 seriously amazing family that love the animals they care for.”
“I can not say enough about the outstanding care our dog received from Scott and Ashley. We received frequent updates and messages to keep us up to date. We are so very grateful that they invited our dog into their home.”
“Cheryl and Josh were wonderful sitters for my dog Molly. They treated her as if she was their own dog. Cheryl was respectful of all the requests that I had made for Molly's stay. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures that Cheryl shared. It was a great comfort for me knowing that I did not have to worry about Molly while I was away on vacation. We will be booking with Cheryl and Josh again!!”
“Highly recommend! Heather put my mind at ease while away from my fur baby. She sent daily updates/photos to assure me all was well with my pup. Heather worked with my dog on some behavioral issues as well! She treated my dog as one of her own, truly happy with how the extended overnight stay went; hope to use her again and again in the future”
“Ellen was wonderful. Not only did she take Winnie on short notice, she made us feel so comfortable leaving Winnie behind. She was a master at easing Winnie in and making her feel at home. She sent us regular updates with photos and video so we could share her experience. Thank you Ellen! Winnie will definitely be back!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we didn't know quite what to expect. We set up a meet and greet to make sure it would be a good fit. As soon as my dog got out of the car, I could tell she was going to like it there. Alex was very communicative during the whole stay and sent daily pictures of how my dog was doing. This made us very happy to know she was in good hands while we were gone. We will definitely work with Alex again!”
“David was/is amazing! Why? He was responsive and accommodating. His extensive knowledge of dogs was clear when we met him - we knew our pups were in good hands. We received daily updates and in each photo the dogs looked like they were having the time of their lives and/or taking a nap on David’s lap 😂. We live downtown Madison and I could tell our pups enjoyed the beautiful country property as they came back tired and content! As a former Rover, I would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a sitter. 10/10!!”
“Marie took wonderful care of our dog, Ace, while we were out of town for a week. She sent daily updates with photos. He got lots of walks and playtime in her big yard outside. He also enjoyed playing with the other dogs and was able to sleep on the couch just like he does at home. It was so nice not to have to have him in a kennel. I would not hesitate to rebook with Marie!”
“We have a very challenging dog who was a rescue, she has a lot of quirks and Jenifer has been very kind and patient in caring for Poppy. Poppy would not do well in a kennel setting and having a loving home for her to stay is a real blessing!”
“We are return customers and we are so thrilled with the care Homer gets at Anna's. He is treated like one of the family and absolutely loves it there. Our family has no hesitation leaving Homer with Ana because we know he will be getting the best possible care while we are away. ”
“My dog had a wonderful time at this house and I received many pictures of her having fun. The family was also accommodating to our needs when we had some trouble getting back at the time we predicted.”
“Brooke and Robbie are AMAZING!! They are both so kind, friendly, and clearly very big animal lovers. I was a little nervous to leave Brodie with someone new, but my worries went away immediately after meeting them, as well as their super sweet dog Moxie. Brooke was very responsive to messages, sent me really sweet pics and updates while I was away, and was more than flexible with my schedule as far as drop off/pick up went. I could tell Brodie had a great stay and was sad to leave his new friends! 5 star experience all around, and so excited that I’ve found our new go-to dog sitters :)”
“Rebecca and Matthew and their boys took wonderful care of Hazel during her week-long stay. They were very detailed in caring for her and sent plenty of pictures and updates.”
“We had a good experience with Natalie during our dog's stay. She has a very large fenced yard that allowed our high energy pup to get her zoomies out regularly. She seemed very detail oriented, and took notes when we discussed various things about our dog's care prior to her drop off. We would certainly book again with Natalie!”
“Courtney was wonderful. Dasher just chilled and while we were enjoying time at a wedding intown we were sure he was completely safe and taken care if while we had a great time with friends and family.”
“Micah was so great with our pup. She kept us informed everyday on how she was doing and sent us pics and videos! She kept her active as well which is really great for our dog. This made our vacation much more enjoyable knowing she was given a bunch of love and attention!”
“Brittany did a great job with our dog! He is young with a lot of energy all day long. We appreciated that she sent pictures everyday capturing our dog and hers interacting. He seemed very happy. Very professional and easy to work with and coordinate our dog’s stay. Our dog even seemed exhausted the day we got him back :) Thank you Brittany!”
