“Ruby was just great! My Max has never been with more than 1 dog at a time and was of course very wary. And this made mommy very anxious. Ruby sent pictures and videos to let me know how Max was doing and allowed me to just enjoy my visit with old friends, knowing my little one was safe and enjoying himself. Thanks Ruby”
“Highly highly recommend Ellen! Our pup had the best time; we could tell immediately she would love him like we do. Great backyard, lots of updates and a very tired pup from so much play when we got home. We will definitely work with Ellen again!”
“Another amazing weekend for our baby with David. She is so well taken care of when she is at his house, he treats her like his own. She always comes home so incredibly happy! Thank you again!”
“Thank you Katy, DJ and girls for caring for Doc this past weekend. Thank you for the pictures and updates through the weekend. The long walks and cuddles are fantastic.”
“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.”
“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!!”
“Finny had a blast! I got updates every day and I could see how happy and content he was while I was on vacation. I was very comfortable knowing he was safe and having a great time, and when he got home he was good and tired. Thank you so much! I would be super happy to bring him back and would highly recommend.”
“Refine and her family were great hosts! Communication was great and I felt comfortable leaving Blaze with them! If Blaze gets better with potty training I would love for them to keep him again! He was wore out coming home this morning for sure!”
“Cheryl and Josh did an outstanding job of taking care of my “fur baby”. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my dog was in good hands. Great communication and they sent lots of pictures. Would definitely book them again.”
“Heather was an excellent puppy-sitter! She really took good care of our Corgi while we were out of town. I was very thankful for her great communication and picture updates.”

“Wonderful people, and excellent sitters to sit your dog. They know dogs. Theyve been doing ut a long time. They really care about what they do. There is always someone there. My pup got exercise and playmates and a good staycation . i will use them next time im in madison if theyre available.”
“Our now 5-month-old puppy was so excited to be back at Sarah's. He immediately started playing with Rip and Mayla, and he was still playing with them when I came to pick him up three days later. It makes me happy knowing how much he loves being there. And I appreciate knowing that Sarah gives him the same love, care, and attention as she does her own two dogs. (It was also great that he was exhausted for the next day and a half after we got home haha.)”
“Meghan and family were great to our pup! We submitted a request only 4 days before we needed to use them. We did a meet and greet 2 days later and they were able to take Rosie just a couple of days later, as requested. Meghan was very prompt with responses, and I got regular updates including pictures of her kids giving so much love to our dog while we were away.”
“Rebecca offered a last minute vacation for our older dog Una, who couldn't handle our cabin weekend with another dog, and she had a blast with her! Rebecca was thoughtful, caring, and had such an amazing set-up for Una, complete with all-day outdoor hangs and a little cool pool for the hot weather! I am so appreciative to her and would absolutely reach out again if we were in the area. Una had a great time!”
“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!”
“This was the first time we used Rover/had someone else watch our 1.5 year old Irish Doodle and it went great! Erika was incredibly responsive and so patient and kind with us since we had a lot of questions and back and forth with it being a new experience! She was flexible, a wonderful companion and gave us some great feedback regarding Evie! We would absolutely have Evie stay here again if we needed someone!”
“Remi did very well staying with Marie and her family. She was wonderful with him! She took him for walks and he also got lots of play time. She updated us often while we were gone as to how he was doing and also sent lots of pics. We will definitely use her as a sitter again!”
“Jennifer was awesome!! She provided us with pictures and updates of how our dog Rocky was doing with her, which was very nice. Jennifer was very personable and easy going - a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend her and will be using her to watch Rocky again in the future.”

“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!”
“Bella took care of Lucina on very short notice, and kept her happy, fed, and entertained as best as a drop in visit could do. She would be my first choice if I ever need a cat sitter again and I'd recommend her to anyone!”
“Deedee did such a wonderful job watching our cat! She was awesome and reliable, coming to our home to spend some time with our cat Winnie while we were away. We will definitely be booking Deedee again!”
“Nikki is great to work with! She was quick to respond and took care of our three cats so thoughtfully while we were away. I’ll definitely recommend Nikki to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable support with your four legged family members!”
About: Hi, I’m Kiana 💛 Animals have always been such a big part of my life. I grew up in a very pet-loving home and had the opportunity to help raise several litters of Labrador puppies from birth to 8 weeks old. Growing up around dogs taught me so much about patience, love, and the little things that make every dog so special. I’m also a dog mom myself! I have a 1-year-old yellow Lab named Rosie and a dachshund mix rescue from Frosty’s Rescue who is now 4 years old. They truly are my babies 🐾 Over the years, family and friends have trusted me with their pets because they know I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality. I’m a Certified Professional Groomer and also AKC S.A.F.E certified, Fear Free certified, and Pet Tech CPR & First Aid certified. Making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their groom is really important to me. I’ve been grooming for about a year now and absolutely love what I do. There’s nothing better than seeing a happy, fresh pup walk out feeling their best ✂️🐶 Thank you so much for taking the time to read a little about me and trusting me with your furry family member. I can’t wait to meet your pup 😊 Currently, I am employed part-time, allowing me ample time to look after your dogs. I am available currently on Fridays. I look forward to the chance to meet your beloved furry companion! I place a high priority on your pet's health and happiness by clearly defining care protocols. This includes detailed guidelines for feeding schedules and medication administration, all aimed at ensuring that I deliver the highest standard of care for your beloved pet.
“We had such a great experience with Aubrey! Before we ever left, she took the time to come over and meet our cats, which meant so much to us. She asked thoughtful questions, paid attention to their personalities, and made sure she understood their routines and preferences. It immediately put us at ease knowing she cared enough to build that connection ahead of time. Our cats were comfortable and well cared for, and it was clear they recognized her when she came back. We truly appreciated the extra effort and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate cat sitter.”
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.
“Alysha did such a nice job with watching our cats. The were fed, litter boxes cleaned and got some play time with her. Leading up to it she was very prompt in answering questions. We will happily have her come again to watch our cats!! Thanks Alysha!!”
“Another wonderful weekend away knowing my fur baby is so loved and cared for. Thank you Ning! As usual, thank you for sending all the photo updates. It’s so reassuring knowing he is having fun.”
“Tori was great with our very shy indoor cat and two skittish outside cats. She was very caring and professional the entire time we were gone and let us know about a small problem that was happening in the house. We highly recommend Tori.”
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. 🐾💕
“Cindy Is the ideal cat sitter. I wanted to not have to worry about Baby Bear having a clean litter box and eating his wet and dry food. Cindy was there for him and he’s happy! That’s what a great pet sitter does.”
About: I have taken care of pets for a majority of my life. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, care for, and play with their pets in many instances. Growing up I also owned my own dog that I would care for. Spending time with animals brings me joy and I treat them all with endless love! I am currently a college student majoring in nursing and I am looking for another side job in addition to my CNA job. I love all animals and think this is the perfect opportunity. I live in a quiet community with plenty of area to walk the dogs. I can also easily kennel dogs if necessary. I do not have any other animals in the home.

“Ruby is friendly. We were pretty worried about daycare with Aston but this has been an awesome experience. We are looking forward to more sending him more and boarding him when we go out of town. Thanks Ruby!!”
“Willow's first visit went exceptionally well! Ðavid handled her anxiety with patience and worked with her personality to make her feel comfortable. I'm glad to have found the right place for Willow to stay when I need a home away from home for her.”
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.
“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 love animals and would love to give you the peace of mind while you are gone. My husband and I understand the importance of finding the right Rover sitter. We both grew up with large breed dogs but I have also had toy breeds. I currently am a stay at home mom and will rarely need to be gone from home for very long. Your pet is my priority while they are in my care and I look forward to spending time with them. The way that I would care for your pets is how I would my pets. They could possibly get better treatment than mine at home… but don’t tell my dog that!
“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: Big-dog experience, lots of love to give! I’m great at reading dogs, meeting their needs, and keeping them happy, exercised, and cared for. Can’t wait to hang with your pup! Since I’m home full-time with my dogs, I have open availability for walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits. I am available 7 days a week. I have occasional obligations I need to attend, as well as a few personal upcoming vacations. I treat every pup like my own! I make sure they’re safe when I arrive and leave, feeling happy and relaxed during the visit, and all set until their parents get home. I follow routines closely and always go at your dog’s pace so they feel comfortable and cared for.
“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!”
“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!”
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!
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: I have cared for animals my entire life and truly believe they are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve had hands-on experience with many different types of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, amphibians, and more. Animals are my passion, and caring for them genuinely brings me joy. Whether it’s providing companionship, playtime, feeding, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I would give my own pets. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be cared for by someone who is experienced, attentive, and truly loves animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I prioritize making sure animals receive attentive and reliable care. I am currently available during the day, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet’s needs. On weekdays, I do drop off and pick up my two children from school (ages 8 and 10), but outside of those short times my schedule is very open. This allows me to provide consistent care, visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship for your pets. Because I structure my day around the animals I’m caring for, you can feel confident that your pet will receive dependable attention and thoughtful care while you’re away. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets, whether they are in my home or their own familiar environment. My home sits on nearly one acre with an unfenced yard, which allows for plenty of outdoor play and exercise. Dogs can enjoy time outside on leash, and off-leash play can be discussed depending on the dog’s training and owner preferences. Inside my home, my own pets have separate spaces, which allows visiting animals to be safely and comfortably separated if needed. This helps ensure a calm and secure environment for everyone. I am also happy to care for pets in their own homes. I am very respectful of clients’ homes and always follow instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s normal routine. Whether in my home or yours, I provide attentive care including feeding, playtime, companionship, exercise, and administering medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away.
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.
“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: I have taken care of my own animals and have helped out others as well! My love for animals is so high and I find a lot of joy in it!

I love having a set list that the owner has and wants me to do just so the pup feels comfortable and not off schedule!

About: I have always had a dog in my house growing up, so i understand the basics of dog care. Currently I work at a dog daycare. I've been working there for 2 years and it has helped me understand more about dog behaviors, and care for them efficiently and effectively. Before that I volunteered at the Jefferson Humane Society for 3 years helping clean out animal cages/rooms and providing affection to all the rescued animals. I'm looking for extra work during the summer in between my internship and job. Internship is 3 days a week, job is 2. So I don't have a bunch of time but I do have some open hours where I can do dog walks and some daycare shifts. I have a lot of experience with a variety of dogs and their behaviors. I can create dogs when needed and can walk dogs without any issues.
About: Had cats all my life and dogs for last 12 years. Animals have a sixth sense about people and I'm one of those they seek out for rubs, cuddles, playtime, snacks and love... I'm working FT so im only available evenings after 5 and all times on the weekends. I'm also available for overnights at your location and can leave for work from anywhere. I will only be able to care for pets at your home as we currently have 2 cats (one who is very persnickedy) and a senior dog rescue who is going blind and is afraid of everyone.

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.

Building trust with both pets and their owners is extremely important to me, and I strive to create a positive, stress-free environment where your pets can feel at safe.

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have experience in pet sitting and the veterinary field for the past 20 years. I owned a pet sitting business for 5 years (2008 - 2012) and experience in general practice, emergency, specialty, and shelter medicine. Having a medical background allows me to pick up on medical issues and emergencies in a timely fashion, allowing for treatment if necessary. I am also able to administer medications as needed. I treat others' dogs the same way I treat my own pets and keep daily routines as close to their normal as much as possible. I work full time at a clinic and part time at the local humane society. I am available limited days during the week for walks and drop in services. Please see the calendar for up to date availability! I discuss your pets routine with you so I can keep it the same as possible during my visits. This helps keep your pet's schedule uninterrupted and allows for calmer and happier experiences!

“Ruby was just great! My Max has never been with more than 1 dog at a time and was of course very wary. And this made mommy very anxious. Ruby sent pictures and videos to let me know how Max was doing and allowed me to just enjoy my visit with old friends, knowing my little one was safe and enjoying himself. Thanks Ruby”

“Our now 5-month-old puppy was so excited to be back at Sarah's. He immediately started playing with Rip and Mayla, and he was still playing with them when I came to pick him up three days later. It makes me happy knowing how much he loves being there. And I appreciate knowing that Sarah gives him the same love, care, and attention as she does her own two dogs. (It was also great that he was exhausted for the next day and a half after we got home haha.)”
“Meghan and family were great to our pup! We submitted a request only 4 days before we needed to use them. We did a meet and greet 2 days later and they were able to take Rosie just a couple of days later, as requested. Meghan was very prompt with responses, and I got regular updates including pictures of her kids giving so much love to our dog while we were away.”
“Rebecca offered a last minute vacation for our older dog Una, who couldn't handle our cabin weekend with another dog, and she had a blast with her! Rebecca was thoughtful, caring, and had such an amazing set-up for Una, complete with all-day outdoor hangs and a little cool pool for the hot weather! I am so appreciative to her and would absolutely reach out again if we were in the area. Una had a great time!”
“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!”
“This was the first time we used Rover/had someone else watch our 1.5 year old Irish Doodle and it went great! Erika was incredibly responsive and so patient and kind with us since we had a lot of questions and back and forth with it being a new experience! She was flexible, a wonderful companion and gave us some great feedback regarding Evie! We would absolutely have Evie stay here again if we needed someone!”
“Remi did very well staying with Marie and her family. She was wonderful with him! She took him for walks and he also got lots of play time. She updated us often while we were gone as to how he was doing and also sent lots of pics. We will definitely use her as a sitter again!”
