About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life and finally got my own pup in 2023. I love all breeds, sizes and ages and cater my care specific to every dog’s needs. I am very patient and keep up with guidelines and research to ensure I’m doing my best as a dog mom and carer of animals in a daily basis. I’m currently unemployed and have flexibility every day. I love getting my steps in, so I am more than happy to take your pup on long walks and will happily provide drop in visits. I am a trustworthy person who treats every being and environment like her own. I am well versed on dog’s body language and barks/growls and will ensure their safety and comfort. I love dogs of all sizes and am able to handle big dogs on walks as my boy is 80lbs.

“Ilene was a great sitter for our two-year-old kitty! She was very communicative, flexible and laid-back.

Thank you, Ilene!”

About: I've loved cats for as long as I can remember. My first pet was a cat named Cindy, along with her sister, Soncy. A few years later we adopted a tabby named Oliver. I grew up with Cindy & Soncy for about 15 years, and once we adopted Oliver, we have had him for 10 years. I currently do not live with the cats anymore, now that I have adopted a dog. But I am very familiar with the everyday care that cats need, including feeding, litter boxes, playtime, affection, and giving them space when they want it. I know that every cat has a different personality and that some want constant attention while others are happiest doing their own thing. Whether your cat wants to play, cuddle, make biscuits, or simply have some quiet company, I am happy to meet them where they are at.
“Thank you so much Vicki! We felt so secure having you take care of Charlie! We LOVE that you were able to take him on walks in the pet stroller! We will absolutely have you care for him again! Thank you so much!!!!!”
“Melissa was such a detailed, thoughtful sitter for my cat. She provided helpful daily updates on how my cat was doing and what they did during her drop-in visits. She also sent many pictures and videos! My skittish gal warmed up to Melissa very quickly, and seems to have really enjoyed their time together.”
“Jan was great!! Super friendly- sent me pictures of Milo. I will definitely schedule again with her and recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter! Thanks:)”
“Daniel was a wonderful drop in caregiver to our cat, Chewy! My wife and I left Glendale the morning we found out about a family member’s death early that same morning. Daniel was not even in town but flying in that evening. His ability to take care of Chewy in such a caring and seamless way despite our lack of opportunity to meet was amazing. Daniel also took care of our orchids and herbs. Chewy befriended Daniel and have become fast buddies as shown in his daily photos. We have been out of Wisconsin for 20 days.”

“Hanna did an amazing job caring for our two cats while we were away on vacation. She was incredibly reliable, communicated regularly, and sent plenty of photos that gave us peace of mind while we were gone. It was clear our cats were well cared for and comfortable in her hands. This was our second time booking with Hanna, and we will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Kyleigh did a great job taking care of my kitty while I was away. She clearly spent time trying to make friends with her (not always easy), and it made me feel better to know that she had someone checking in on her and a little human contact while I was gone.”
“Loved the detailed reports and photos of my cats while I was gone. I was worried about my older cat and this was my first time using Rover. Ana's reports were honest and thorough which reassured me and which I appreciated.”
“So happy with Whitney and how she cared for our kitty cat! We received updates and pictures and could relax while we were out of town knowing how much our kitty was being looked after! ❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10. I have a golden retriever now and love all kinds of dogs. I grew up around dogs my whole life so I am very comfortable with them! I have 3 years of experience in dog walking as well as housesitting. I’m currently in college but my class schedule is light this semester and I am available the whole week. At home I have a golden retriever who I walk three times a day, morning, evening and night. At my house I have a fenced in backyard but I also like to take my dog for long walks as well. I am comfortable walking dogs long distances.
About: I grew up with a finicky cat, but her sassy attitude never made me love her less! I've taken care of senior cats, and I'm comfortable giving medication and insulin. I love snuggly ones and I'm happy to play with your extroverted cat too!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the amount of patience, attention, and genuine care I give every pet I watch. I’m very detail-oriented and make it a priority to keep pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine while their owners are away. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities, from energetic kittens to shy senior cats who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, monitoring eating and litter box habits, and making sure pets feel safe and stress-free in their environment.

“Thank you so much to Kim! Kim was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog Mushi today. She's very friendly and made us feel very comfortable about leaving our lab mix rescue with her while we enjoyed the Milwaukee Zoo. She walked Mushi and also gave us updates as well as pictures. I highly recommend her to watch your dog.”
“Dane is fantastic; couldn’t recommend him more. Our pup loves getting to hang out with him and his goldens. We’re pretty sure our dog would prefer to live with Dane and his dogs if he could! We know that our dog has a great time because whenever we turn down the street that Dane lives on, our dog loses it with excitement regardless if we’re dropping him off or on our way somewhere else. Great backyard, the sweetest goldens and super nice humans. Definitely a winning trio.”
About: Hi! I’m Andrew, and I provide dependable, attentive, one-on-one care for dogs. My goal is simple: to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities over the years, including family dogs, regular clients, and dogs I’ve walked and cared for in home settings. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and adapting my approach to what helps them feel most secure. I’m especially attentive on walks. I pay close attention to body language, keep dogs safely managed around distractions, and believe that calm, consistent handling helps dogs build confidence. I enjoy providing both physical exercise and mental engagement while making sure each walk is a positive experience. Reliability and communication are important to me. I’ll send thoughtful updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing, and I’ll always treat your home and your pet with respect. Whether your dog loves long walks, quiet companionship, or simply keeping their normal routine, I’m happy to meet their individual needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! My Experience * Experience caring for family dogs over many years. * Regular dog walking and pet care for private clients. * Comfortable with dogs of different sizes and temperaments. * Patient with shy or cautious dogs. * Committed to safe leash handling and positive interactions. * Happy to follow your dog’s established routines, feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I am currently available to book most days of the week as dog care is my passion. Please feel free to reach out to set up a meet and greet. I am currently available to take care of pets in client’s home. I am flexible with needs, dates, and times. Let me know how I can help 🙂
About: I helped raise my own two family dogs and ensured that they were always walked, bathed, fed, and happy. It's also a habit of mine to go take the extra step like wiping my dogs and make sure they are clean after they've been outside. I've also taken care of my neighbor's dogs alongside our own family dogs, so I have experience handling multiple pets at once. I work full-time, Monday through Friday, while working from home 2-3 days a week. I also go to workout classes in the evening. Normally, if working from home, I take the dogs out for a walk in the morning. On other days, I take them for a walk in the evening. I normally take pets out 3 times a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and night. I make sure the dogs have a dedicated spot for food and bed. I have both a park and a dog park, 5-10 minutes away from my apartment, which I can take the pets to for a walk or some dog play time. There are also multiple yard-like grass areas where the dogs are meant to do their business. If pets stay with me for longer than two weeks, I bathe them every other week.
“Jan was great! She knew I was concerned that my sometimes reactive doggie might misbehave in a new place but Jan sent me an update right away to let me know she was doing well. She sent messages and pics throughout the day for reassurance, even though I didn’t ask her to.”
About: Hi there! We are lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience and two sweet pit bulls of my own. Our home is shared with my playful and loving 3-year-old boy and my silly, affectionate 1-year-old girl, who both love making new friends. We've spent many years in responsible dog breeding, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, socialization, and individual needs. Whether your pup is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, We are confident and comfortable caring for all personalities, ages, and breeds. With me, your pets will be treated like part of the family — plenty of love, attention, structure, and fun. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive environment where every dog feels at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! --- If you want, I can also tailor it to a specific service (boarding, drop-ins, walks, etc.) or adjust the tone to be more professional, playful, or concise. I offer flexible scheduling for pet boarding thanks to my role with a property management company, which allows me to be home often and adjust my availability as needed. This flexibility helps me give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout their stay. For everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly require all pets to have their own crate during their stay. Crates provide a secure, familiar space for your dog to rest and relax, especially during downtime or when we briefly step out. Their safety and well-being are always our top priority. Also provide your pet with their favorite food/treats for their stay. We are also able to provide that for an additional fee.
“Mickey loved his afternoon with Jessica! She took him for walks and made him feel at home. He was relaxed and happy when I picked him up. Jessica is such a kind soul, we feel extemely fortunate to have found her!”
“Miranda took care of my dog like nobody would. She was flexible and patient, and I will absolutely take my dear Galleta with her again. Miranda is super reliable and clearly loves animals. Galleta had lots of fun with her dog, Bandit. Thanks a lot for an amazing daycare experience for my dog!”
“Yolanda and her family have been so great to work with so far! Yolanda is very responsive, flexible, & respectful of your pet’s needs/requests/concerns. I will be utilizing her services again 🙂”

Currently, I am working in office on Tuesdays and Thursdays until about 230/3pm and work at home on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Weekends are very open and only tend to leave for short periods of time to run errands I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for them to run around and enjoy the outdoors, as well as one Corgi at home. I do live in a two story house with the primary bedroom upstairs. Depending on the preference, dogs are usually allowed to roam free whether I am home or not but I do have gates to keep them from going upstairs if necessary.

About: My name is Alisha. I work as a professional dog trainer. I have 7 years of professional experience with both cats and dogs. I have also house-sat multiple times and have great references! I know how to give cats and dogs proper care and attention. I have worked with hundreds of animals professionally through my work in multiple animal shelters as a kennel tech and shelter manager. I am working towards certification in dog training too! While watching or walking your pup I will be sure to watch for opportunities to learn!

“My very anxious mini bernadoodle immediately bonded with Ray! She had a great time and came home with exhausted! Ray is conscientious and loving, my dog loves her! We will definitely call her the next time we need someone to watch Georgie!”
About: I have been the go-to pet sitter for my large family & friends for years and just decided to see if anyone else would need the service. I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. I like hanging out with the pets like little buddies, getting some days of cuddles and then sending them home 😅. It’s the perfect way to get some fur baby time until I’m ready for my next dog or cat in the future. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting cuz it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teen. I have always had a deep love for animals, and have experience caring for friends, family, and neighbors pets! I am a therapist who works part-time remotely. I have a flexible schedule and I am home most of the day. I am eager to go on long and adventurous walks. I am a tentative dog watcher who enjoys animal company. I also enjoy long walks to the beach and local parks in the neighborhood. If you have a yard and need care at your home, I’m happy to keep an eye on everything from the comfort of your pets familiar surroundings.
“Having our dog stay with MJ has been a great experience! We recently adopted a dog with fairly severe separation anxiety, and I'm not sure how we would have made it through the first months without having someone like MJ to watch her during the day while we work on alone time training. He's always very communicative and flexible, and our dog just loves him. You couldn't ask for a better dog sitter!”
About: I had a 12 year old puggle who was my best friend! He was walked every day of his life. Now that he has passed, I am looking to spend time with other furry companions! I am recently retired, so I have lots of time and a very flexible schedule! I love all dogs and am very gentle with all pets. I love downtown and know all kinds of routes for your pets. I am an active person so long or short walks are easy for me to do!
“Emily was absolutely amazing! She kept me updated throughout the day with lots of pictures and messages, which made me feel so comfortable knowing my puppy was in such great hands. It was clear she genuinely cared for him and treated him like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I can’t wait for our next visit. Emily is truly amazing, and I highly recommend her!”

“Carrianne was able to help us with a last minute walk for our dog. She took the time to stop by the day before to meet him. We appreciated the help and would book her again if the chance comes up!”
“Jessica is great! On time every day and very communicative with any changes. She was understanding of any modifications we needed to make with days or times and our Mona looked forward to seeing her!”
About: Hi, I'm Marissa! I am an experienced dog owner, as I've had my own pup for near 6 years now. I have a strong background caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I grew up helping my grandma, who was a Samoyed breeder, so I've been around dogs my entire life and learned early on how to properly care for them. I've had my Aussie since he was 8 weeks, which has made me very comfortable with high-energy breeds and understand how important exercise, attention, and mental stimulation are. Whether your dog needs a quick drop-in, a walk, or just some extra attention during the day, I'll make sure they're not just checked on, but truly cared for and engaged with. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, even for a short time. I focus on making sure your dog feels safe & comfortable. I am currently offering evening availability on the weekdays starting at 6:30pm Thursday/Friday, and flexible scheduling on Saturday's/Sunday's for drop-ins & walks. I treat every dog like my own and can't wait to meet you and your pup! I am currently working a full-time job, 8am-5pm. I know this creates limited availability, but I am willing to fit in drop-ins and walks after 6:30pm during the weekdays, and will have flexible availability on the weekend. I take my dog on two 30 minutes walks everyday, on top of playing fetch often, & providing training on basics daily. I practice off-leash in areas where it is allowed. I feed morning and evening for my dog, provide lots of cuddles and affection, and make sure play time is priority. That can be through basic training, scent games, DIY puzzles, and running in the park! As for crate training, I did it for a year but have no moved to allowing my dog to snooze next to my bed every night. This set him up for success and created trust between him and I. I focus on trust with my dog 100% of the time, and understand his needs and wants daily. The bond between your pet is so important so I want to make sure I bring that same energy to your pet!
“I needed a walker yesterday because I couldn’t be physically away from my home, so I was there when Andrew arrived. He texted when he was on his way, arrived promptly, and spent a couple of extra minutes greeting Rosie, on her level, letting her check him out and get comfortable with him - I was pleased. When they were out walking, a friend happened to see them and called me to tell me that she was impressed with how patient and gentle he was with her. He obviously made a positive impression on Rosie because she was very excited when he returned in the afternoon for her 2nd walk. I will definitely use Andrew for my future needs.”
About: From family pets, growing up on a farm, pet sitting in college, to multiple years taking care of animal ambassadors as a naturalist, I've been working with and caring for critters of all sorts for nearly as long as I can remember! For critters in the pet category, I have been caring for indoor cats since 2018, from kittens to seniors and every stage in between, including administering medications. My family has had medium/large dogs (rottweilers, labs, and border collie and boxer mixes) my whole life but I have also pet sat for smaller breeds like Boston terriers and cavalier king Charles spaniels. My time as a naturalist gave me experience working with not only varied species, but varied personalities. From grumpy skunks to mischievous snakes and dramatic birds, I have extensive experience across the gambit. It also provided experience with very specific care instructions and detailed documentation. I like to provide pet parents with a thorough summary of my time with their pet so they don't have to worry while they're away. My schedule varies week to week from periods of no availability to periods of open availability, I will make sure to keep things updated so you know what to expect! In fall of 2025, I finished my 2,200+ mile thru hike of the Appalachian Trail. What does that mean for pet care? I LOVE to walk and do so whenever I get the chance! I would love to have your pet join me! I am very detail oriented and will follow your care instructions to a T! I also provide my pet parents a detailed summary of my visit for peace of mind, every time!
About: For as long as I can remember, I’ve been passionate about caring for animals. Whether it’s dog-sitting my neighbors’ dogs, volunteering at the Humane Society, or spoiling my own pup, Lula, I’ve always found so much joy in spending time with animals. As a nurse, caring for others is a big part of who I am, and I’d love to bring that same compassion, patience, and attention to your pets. I’m excited to spend my free time doing something I genuinely love—making sure your furry family members feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to care for your pet! I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and am happy to work around your pet’s schedule. I understand how important routine is for pets, so I’ll do my best to keep their usual feeding, walking, playtime, and rest schedule consistent while you’re away. I take the safety and security of your pets very seriously. I would love to meet them and then learn their routine, personality, and individual needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, medications, and rest. I also love giving plenty of attention, cuddles, and playtime when they’re comfortable with it. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, happy, and loved in their own home
About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.
“My dog gets excited when she hears that her friend Daniel has arrived for their afternoon walk. He seems to enjoy his time with her as well and is very kind and communicative. I've only had positive experiences with Daniel.”
“Ana takes Bella, my 1yo Golden Retriever, on 2 walks a week so Bella can stretch her legs when I’m on too many work conference calls. Ana is prompt, Bella loves her and Ana gives me a detailed report and pictures through the app each time. I highly recommend Ana and am so glad to have her walking Bella.”
About: I thrive on the energy a dog brings to the family, and I promise to take the best of care of your fur baby. My 16 year old Yellow Lab recently passed away due to an old age-related illness. But my heart is still thankful and happy to help you with your dog when you can’t be home to love on him/her. I can walk, run, and play with your dog at your home or mine. Please contact me with any questions whatsoever. Thanks so much. Also, I’m a teacher and I work about 8 minutes away. My schedule for Rover pups: Monday-Friday: I leave home at 8AM, and return home for the remainder of day at 12:45PM. Weekends: I’m home all the time, unless I run out for a quick errand. Additionally, June through August, I am available all day, full-time. When boarding your dog at my home, I’ll care for his/her safety and make sure he/she feels loved. Outside, your dog will always be on leash and will be my sole focus. Inside, there will be no chewing/safety hazards. NOTE: For care not in my home, my drop-in care and dog-walking rates are $13 per 10 minute increments within the Whitefish Bay area. I am able to provide longer care/walks and/or travel outside of the WFB area at an increased rate.
“Melissa is wonderful with my pup! She understands cues from my pup, and gives her the time she needs to reacquaint before the walk. Melissa responds in a timely manner to my texts. Wish I could keep her, but I am out of her desired range for clients; she is doing me a favor until I can find someone else to walk my dog on a regular basis.”
About: For 5 years, I’ve cared for a foster cat I adopted, looked after 3 senior cats—including giving medication—and am experienced with home visits to feed and play. I’m looking to spend my days off walking and playing with pets! With an open schedule, I love taking frequent walks around town and would be thrilled to have a furry companion join me for some fun and exercise. I’m available most days of the week and ready to help your pet get moving! While I don’t offer pet sitting in my own home, I’m dedicated to respecting your pet’s routine and following your guidelines to provide the best care possible in your home.
About: As someone who grew up on a small farm, I have been around a variety of animals since birth. I have experience caring for a variety of species and am comfortable handling any animal. I have volunteered with local animal shelters for over a decade, so I also have extensive experience caring for pets with behavioral issues and medical needs. I am a part-time sitter who is providing pet care services in addition to my full-time work. However, as a professor at a local university, I have a very flexible daily schedule and can easily provide pet care during typical business hours. Additionally, I do not work in the summer, which increases my availability from mid-May to September. I am very intentional about the number of clients I take at a time to ensure that I can provide comprehensive care to booked clients. I believe open communication is most important to be able to provide safe and reliable care for your pets. During our meet and greet, I will ask many questions to ensure that I have a full picture of what caring for your pet requires and how to meet your expectations. As someone who uses a Rover sitter to care for my pets when I am away, I personally understand the trust that is needed to leave your pets in someone else's care. I strive to build trust with clients by showing up when I say I do and following all instructions provided to me. And, it is not just about building trust with you but also your pet! If your pet has any behavioral issues or quirks, it's important for me to know this so that I can ensure safety for your pet and myself. This will help me adjust my interactions with them so I can build trust with your pet and respect their boundaries. The more information I have, the better!
“Jan has been great, and Gizmo loves her! She will take him for walks, be sure he goes potty, and play with him in the yard for a bit. Jan is also flexible should a scheduling conflict arise. She truly loves dogs and looks forward to seeing Gizmo a few times a week!”
About: I am a part time college student. I am going to school to get my ECE Degree. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 by volunteering at humane societies and having my own dogs. I also worked at a doggy daycares throughout Florida and Wisconsin. I love all dogs like they are my children. I would love to own my own rescue center but as of now I want to gain more experience with taking care of different breeds and just express my love of animals to the world. I hope that you choose me to be a temporary parent for your dog and that he or she is in perfect hands and will feel at home. Thank you. Hopefully we speak soon. I work third shift for Target and dog sit during the day. I make sure they are taken out three-four times and feed twice a day. I care for them like they are children. Go on walks, feed, cuddle. Run like crazy and crash from exhaustion. I also love getting to know the dogs personality.
About: I've taken care of dogs for around 5 years now and I enjoy taking them out on walks. I find dog walks calming and can take several hour long walks if needed. What I love to do best on my breaks is spend time with my dog, giving him walks. So I always have plenty of time to take care of pets. I can easily cater to your dog's needs when it comes to walks and house sitting. Just tell me how to typically take care of your dog and I'll do exactly that.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life and finally got my own pup in 2023. I love all breeds, sizes and ages and cater my care specific to every dog’s needs. I am very patient and keep up with guidelines and research to ensure I’m doing my best as a dog mom and carer of animals in a daily basis. I’m currently unemployed and have flexibility every day. I love getting my steps in, so I am more than happy to take your pup on long walks and will happily provide drop in visits. I am a trustworthy person who treats every being and environment like her own. I am well versed on dog’s body language and barks/growls and will ensure their safety and comfort. I love dogs of all sizes and am able to handle big dogs on walks as my boy is 80lbs.
