“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!!”
“Rocky came home happy and well-adjusted with no stress symptoms, which is not what I would say to two previous stays with other dog sitting providers. I highly recommend Kylie for your dog and hope to use Kylie for our future needs. Thanks for being so accommodating! ❤️❤️❤️”
“I feel really comfortable leaving my pup with Joanne. She sent me pictures and updates on Ginger every day - they made me smile! Was wonderful to know my pup was being loved and so well cared for while I was away! Thank you, Joanne!”
“Madison and Jeff were very easy to communicate with and kept us advised of all of Roscoe’s activities with texts and pictures . Their boys were very good playmates and kept Roscoe very busy. At night the boys setup “camp” in the living room and slept with Roscoe. Awesome Family!”
“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. ”
“The best ever! 10/10 will use them again. The sweetest people who made my little George feel like he is apart of the family & made me less stressed about leaving him for a week. Thank you guys ❤️”
“They were great! Mikeale was very communicative & quick with responses, sent daily updates with pictures, and accommodated my short-notice stay. Ruby was very tired when she got home <3.”
“Brooke and Rob were incredible! Our pup had a blast with them and their dog, Moxie. They sent regular updates, which gave us peace of mind. It was obvious they understood our dog's needs, making us feel comfortable leaving her. We highly recommend them as trustworthy and caring sitters. Thank you, Brooke and Rob!”
“Doreen watches our dog every vacation we’re on. She sends us updates everyday and we look forward to our daily picture she sends us. Very dependable and a great communicator. Thanks.”
“Nina has stayed with her twice now, and both experiences have been absolutely wonderful. She treats Nina with so much love, patience, and care that I always have complete peace of mind while I’m away. I always receive updates and photos, and it is clear that Nina is happy, safe, and loved. Seeing how comfortable and relaxed Nina is with her means everything to me. She has earned my complete trust, and she will always be my first choice whenever I need someone to care for Nina. I recommend her with all my heart. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my little girl!”
“Tracy was great and her dog was super friendly. My dog had a great weekend staying with her! She did have a lot of dogs, about 8, when I dropped my dog off, which made it a little hectic.”
“We utilized Angela for a second time. I’m so happy to have found her. I would highly recommend her to any family or friends. Thank you for another great stay, Angela (and your daughter, too)!!”
“Alex took such great care of Banksy. She was able to accommodate a bit of a last minute booking after our other arrangements fell through. If we lived near Oconomowoc, Alex would be a repeat sitter for Banksy! He had a blast, and we received photos and updates throughout his stay!”
“This was the absolute BEST experience we could have hoped for! If I could have given more than 5 stars, I would have! Mary and her family took such GREAT care of Penny Bean while we were away! They walked her, bathed her, and sent photos all week long (because they knew how worried I was about leaving Penny Bean with strangers for a whole week). They were so reassuring, communicative and great, I just can't say enough! Penny and their dog Teddy seemed to get along well. I could not be happier with my choice of boarding providers. Will DEFINITELY use them again! If you are at all concerned about leaving your pup somewhere while you travel, I'd HIGHLY recommend Mary and her family - they ARE FANTASTIC!”

“We were looking to a pet sitter who is great with cats, and are SO glad we found Kami!! She came over and spent quality time with each of them - lots of playing, pets and snuggles. She sent us detailed reports and lots of pics so we could see how our fur babies were doing. Kami took great care of them!!”
About: I’m a disabled veteran & dogs have always been my peace so i decided to start incorporating more of them into my daily life & call it “work” 🥰 pet-loving is part of my every day life! i take my own pups for walks in the morning before the heat, and during the warmest days of winter. i love being outside, playing with animals & taking care of them! i will use the app, frequent communications in texting, etc. along with pictures and videos to send to all my pet parents! walking the pups at least a mile, if they can, or more if requested! i also walk all my clients separately from others, so no need to worry about differing personalities.

“Julie was outstanding in caring for our senior cat. We are especially appreciate of her care and follow up when Emmy seemed off. Julie even offered to stop by a second time to check in on her. Julie’s care and compassion will be forever remembered.”
“Tara is a wonderful, engaged, and considerate sitter. I have never seen my nervous dog relax with anyone the way he did with Tara. She kept me updated with notes and photos while I was gone and I came home to a happy puppy. I would definitely recommend Tara to anyone with a skittish dog!”
“Brooke and Robbie took great care of my sweet prince, Cheddar! I last minute asked if they would be willing to have him all day vs just a drop in and they were so accommodating. They provided updates and lots of pictures. I know Cheddar had a blast and would give them a 5 start review :) 10/10 would book again!”
“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: We have lived with multiple animals over the years and had experience taking care of all of them. From dogs, to cats, Chickens and even snakes! I work full time, M-F 5:00am-4:00 pm. My wife works from home every other week, so depending on the week we can host with attention through the day. We have a fenced yard great for bigger animals. Our home is very animal friendly and we have lots of room for them to explore. We also only ever watch one family friend at a time. Unless they are siblings. This is for our safety and the safety of your family.
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: To be completely honest, I was afraid of dogs when I was a child. But since my family got our puppy in 2015, my love of dogs has skyrocketed. Now when I see a dog, I have this intuition to pet them, with permission of course. So with my care, there will always be love in the air! A little fun fact about me is that I love to go for walks. So watch out furry friends, the feeling of being worn out is coming your way! I am a full-time student, however, I do have time during the day on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays to hang around with your furry friends! My time range is from 11-3:30. Or perhaps you’re stuck at work late in the night, and your dog or cat has been crossing their legs to use the bathroom, and I am more than welcome to stop by and take them outside any night of the week (after 6 pm)! Just like people, your animal should have food, water, and exercise. I will take your dogs and/or cats on walks and make sure their dishes are filled with water. And give them lots of pets as well, because what animal doesn’t like a little love?
About: Growing up I always had animals (dogs, hamsters, a guinea pig, a turtle, a cat, sugar gliders) and can’t imagine my life without animals. I adopted my pup right out of college, I know that sometimes it takes a village raising & caring for pets! I love dogs of all breeds, shapes & sizes ❤️ I have dog &cat sat for family members & love doing so! I’m happiest around animals. I’ve walked, played, fed, bathed, and have given medicine to dogs and am comfortable doing so. I promise to send cute pics of them too! I work very part time in the summers which gives me plenty of availability to stop by and love, play with, and/or walk your pet!! I will ensure your pet has food/water, is left where you’d want them (in a certain room, crate, etc), and any other specifics you need or want before I leave! Growing up around animals and having 2 rescues myself I understand that some animals need extra time to warm up &/or certain things (covered crate, routine, medicine, etc.) to help them feel safe and comfortable. I will work with you and try my best to ensure that your pet has whatever he/she needs to feel safe and comfortable!

“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.”
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.
“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 ❤️”
“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: 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.
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!
“Couldn't have asked for a more pleasant experience! Maria & Nayibe were so friendly and took amazing care of my puppy. Additionally they accommodated my daycare request on short notice. I highly recommend them and will definitely utilize their services again in the future :)”
“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: I’ve been raised around dogs since birth. I have free time a few times a week. I’m looking forward to help you care for your pups. Looking to take up some of my spare time and help you with your pets. I have availability during the day several days a week. I have experience taking care of pets my entire life. I can easily meet your pets needs. I look forward to meeting different breeds and making you less stressed.
About: Pets are family. With years of experience growing up on a farm and having my own dog for the last 8 years, I am providing loving, reliable, and professional care to ensure your furry friends get the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a cozy overnight stay, or daily check-ins, I am passionate about making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy. Experience peace of mind knowing your pets are in my expert hands. I work very close with limited hours during the week which gives me great flexibility and open weekends. I do not have any children or pets myself right now. I have a fenced in dog park literally 10' from my front door. Im right next to amazing trails as well as lakes and ponds a short distance away. Our community is very dog friendly.
“This was my 1st time leaving my dogs with a sitter I didn't personally know. I was nervous, but they LOVED it! Mary & her family treated them like their own. They were exhausted everyday from playing with the other dogs and seemed excited to go back. I received daily updates & photos when they were there. It allowed me to have fun on my vacation because I knew they were happy! Thank you Mary ❤”
“Lauren was absolutely phenomenal with Rory! He struggles with separation anxiety, but she made him feel comfortable and he warmed right up to her. He even ran straight inside on their second day together, ready to play! Lauren is very responsive and takes lots of great pictures too. I couldn’t recommend her more! We’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future. Thanks again, Lauren!”
“Our Ruby spent the day with Carrie and her family recently. Ruby is 13 and not as active as she used to be, but she loves being around families and enjoys playtime with other dogs. She did very well and was well cared for. I am sure we will contact Carrie again to be Ruby’s sitter.”
“We felt so comfortable leaving our puppy with Maura, she was in great hands and was showered with so much love the entire time she was there. We are so thankful we found her!”
“Sarah is amazing! She took excellent care of Sophie. We felt completely at ease knowing she was being watched by a wonderful family. Will not hesitate to leave Sophie with Sarah again.”
“Gianina watched my 7 month old puppy for 4 consecutive days. She was awesome to work with and each day my puppy came home happy, healthy, and tired. I truly appreciate her caring for him so well and I would absolutely book with her again in the future.”

I follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions closely, while making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and secure. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment and give every pet the individual attention and care they need!!
“Julie was absolutely amazing! She is extremely responsive and took great care of our pup. Thanks for helping us out and walking our fuzzy kid! I would use again in a second!”

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance with your fur babies! ❤️ Pet care fits into my routine because I only work Tuesday Wednesdays. I don’t mind dropping in to say Hi to pets, let them out, or take them for a walk. I care for your pet as if they were my own💕 pets are part of our family!!!!! I have 2 dogs of my own which mean the world to us!
About: We recently moved back to our roots to a spot right off South St. In Oconomowoc. We had our dog sitting business in San Diego, CA and will miss our furry friends so much! My husband and I both love animals very much and have the perfect set-up to host. We enjoy morning and evening cuddles and allow dogs on the couch and bed :) We will take care of your pup just the same as we care for our own. We have a 4 year old mutt that we adopted 3 years ago who has brought so much joy to our life! She loves to play and enjoys the dog park/hanging around other dogs as much as she can. She loves walks around the lake as I am sure your pup will too! We both have experience taking care of other dogs and have dog sit for many of our friends and family members for extended periods of time when they are out of town. We can provide pictures as little or as often as you would like. Excited to meet your furry friend soon! I currently work 4 days of the week and have every Thursday off. My husband works remotely from home so he is able to tend to your pups needs all day. This schedule works great for our pups that need frequent potty breaks and attention. We have long leashes attached to our back deck so the dogs can enjoy the sun and being outdoors as much or as little as they would like without having to worry about them wandering off! Moxie loves basking in the sun and shade out there as I am sure yours would too! Water bowls always provided and refreshed as needed.

About: Hi! I’m currently in graduate school for social work and am looking to get back into pet sitting and dog walking during my freetime which is something that I have enjoyed in the past. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels and understand that each pet has their own routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, feeding, playing, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m happy to provide reliable and attentive care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet!! I work second shift as a clinical coach at a rehabilitation center which gives me availability during the morning, early afternoons, and on many weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your pet’s normal routine, carefully follow any instructions you provide, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I treat every home with respect, keep pets secure at all times, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away

Yolanda sent me pictures every day and my little dog was smiling. And when I came to pick her up, I can tell she wasnt stressed. Of course, she was happy to see me but I can tell that she had a wonderful time if you're on the fence about booking Yolanda, don't be. She has wonderful energy and so does her husband. I look forward to dropping off Sherrie for playdates in the future.”
