“We were very happy with our dog’s stay at Doreen’s. She sent pictures throughout the week with nice messages on how he was doing, and she followed his schedule closely to ensure he kept to his routine. Doreen is a very loving, knowledgeable dog person who we felt very comfortable with. Our dog seemed well taken care of when we brought him home. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Scott and Ashley took great care of our dog! They communicated well and made sure he was well taken care of with walks and play time. They clearly genuinely cared about him. We would definitely book with them again in the future.”
“They are the BEST sitters ever! Penny Bean is excited to arrive at their house (confirmation of how caring they are!). We get photos throughout our trips and they are very accommodating if you want more or less information (based on your style as a pet parent!). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!!”
“Angela and her family watched our dog for a week while we were on vacation. Angela was very courteous and great to work with. She has a big fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. She sent lots of pictures with daily updates. Our dog seemed very happy with her family and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Thanks Angela!”
“This was our first time using Rover and our first time having someone that wasn’t family watch our dog. Wallen had so much fun and came home so happy ! We got frequent pictures, videos and updates so we knew he was very well taken care of!”
“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!”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Sherry was so amazing in accommodating my senior pup within her home. Tedi was very comfortable and was able to enjoy all of her favorite things with Sherry from naps on the couch to car rides. I appreciated the photos and updates I received and could not have felt more comfortable being away from Tedi for an extended period of time. Definitely will be asking for a repeat stay should her schedule allow!”
“I absolutely loved my experience with the sitters! They’re so attentive, communicative, helpful in every way, I definitely will book again. I could tell with the updates that my dog was happy ( from photos I received every day) and very comfortable! It made my getaway so much easier to know he was well taken care of!”
“We felt very comfortable leaving our furry family member with Marie and her family! Marie did a great job sending pics and providing daily updates. Grace got lots of walks, treats and love! We’ll definitely be requesting Marie again.”
“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and in our home, pets are truly family. I’m a mom to one little boy and also a proud dog mom to my fur babies. My family and I are all animal lovers, and we understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. We have rescued two of our family pets, one who has since passed and our current dog, Ollie. Because of Ollie, we know firsthand how important a safe and secure yard is. We live on an acre in Sussex with a fully fenced-in yard, which gives dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, sniff, and enjoy being outside. My husband and mom both work from home, so there is almost always someone here. This allows pets to have frequent potty breaks, outdoor time, attention, and company throughout the day. We love making dogs feel like part of our family while they are with us. I care for every pet the way I would want someone to care for my own, with patience, love, attention, and lots of updates. Whether your dog loves to play, relax, cuddle, or explore the yard, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved during their stay. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule. I am available for pet sitting at a clients home. I am also available for early morning walks or after work, and even drop in visits during the day. I care for other’s pets as I would want anyone to treat my own pets. I believe our pets are part of the family and I would want anyone to treat my pet to the best of their abilities.
“I enjoy this family so much! They do an amazing job taking care of my mini golden doodle KoKo. They are very knowledgeable and nurturing. The communication while KoKo is staying with them is top tier. KoKo also enjoys her time in their home. We’re now at a point where KoKo is very happy to see them and doesn’t even look back! 🤣 I highly recommend 💕”
“Monique was wonderful!! She kept up great communication and photos. My dog has separation anxiety and it’s clear he was comfortable in her home. Will definitely have him stay with Monique the next time we are in the area. Thanks, Monique!!!”
“Absolutely would recommend! My dog is VERY anxious and had never stayed with anyone other than myself so I was a little afraid of how he would do but Cindy did an amazing job. She sent me pictures daily and my dog looked happy and comfortable. She went above and beyond, will definitely book her again!”
“Katy and Dennis are a one in a million find! They take such great care for our high energy dogs, send daily photos, and our dogs are happy to visit them anytime! I highly recommend these two when looking for care for your pups!”
“Kris. Thank you for taking care of Lulo 🥇 , It makes it easier to be away during our vacations knowing someone is caring him the same way we would! Kris is a wonderful pet sitter who took excellent care of our dog , She is very warm and friendly, So very pleased with her service!”

“Allison was an amazing sitter for our four cats — Stanley, Pebbles, Murphy, and Harley. Stanley is a full-time attention hog, but Allison made sure everyone got their cuddles and pets during each visit. She also flawlessly handled Stanley’s nightly oral medication (6/6 successful doses 👏), which is no small feat. All cats are on various different prescription foods, and she fed them perfectly, kept water bowls full, and made sure dry food was always available. We loved the detailed Rover report cards and all the photos — it was clear she spent the full hour with them, just as requested. I know we are coming home to happy, well-cared-for cats and total peace of mind. She also brought all our packages into the house, which is a bonus.”
“Mackenzie was great! She did a stop in visit to feed my three cats and went above and beyond. Not only did she send plenty of photos, she also took a quick look at the litter boxes. Would go with again!”
“Once again, Meghan went above and beyond to ease our minds about the wellness of our old man and she was able to let us know there was no obvious damage from the flooding. She is communicative and sends the cutest pictures.”
About: I have had pets my entire life. At this time, I am petless, so I would love to love on your pets. Family and friends have relied on me to watch, walk, and play with their furry friends. I and my husband are retired so we have a lot of time to spend with your dog and will walk them a few times a day and play with them. They will always have someone with them. I take younger dogs for a morning, afternoon and night walk. I adjust the number of walks and distance if they are older dogs. I also play with them. They can sleep on the bed and furniture.
About: While I’m newer to cat care, I’m very patient, observant, and respectful of their boundaries. I’ve spent time around my boyfriend’s and sister’s cats and understand how to approach shy or independent kitties. I’m happy to follow your cat’s routine and comfort level.
About: We lost our sweet Blue (11 year old labradoodle) 3 years ago of bone cancer, and have recently become empty nesters. We LOVE dogs, and our cat has missed his canine companion. Our yard is over an acre, and includes a wooded area. We are also located near beautiful trails that we can walk to. Both of us work from home the majority of the time, and we will only open our home up to furry house guests if we are sure that at least one of us is available to be home the majority of the day. Your dog will love the extra love and attention that they will receive, and we tend to be a bit lenient with letting dogs on furniture/beds. Most of our neighbors own dogs, and there are young children next door. That being said, a dog that is friendly with other dogs and not wary of children would LOVE a vacation with us. I am working part time, and my husband works at least 1/2 of the time from home. We are flexible with dog schedules, and have experience with "elderly" dogs with special needs. We have a large yard (over an acre), which is not fenced in. Our neighborhood connects to walking trails and parks, so your dog will have ample exercise opportunities. We are extremely flexible with our schedules, and can adapt to meet your dog's current routines.
“Amanda was courteous, prompt and professional. She provided consistent updates and communication for each visit. She demonstrated tremendous patience with our very shy cat. I would highly recommend her and would not hesitate to book her again.”
About: Hi there! I'm Olivia, a dedicated and passionate dog lover with extensive experience in pet care. I have volunteered at numerous humane societies, providing care and companionship to dogs of all breeds and sizes. I also have multiple dogs of my own, ensuring I understand each pet's unique needs. I have also helped family friends and neighbors with pet sitting as well! My experience includes volunteer dog walking at HAWS in Waukesha (3 years) and the Eau Claire County Humaine Society (1 year). I have a Chocolate Lab named Ellie (4) and a Yellow lab/husky mix named Lexi (8). In addition to this, I have also dog-sat many of the dogs in my neighborhood and taken care of smaller animals such as rabbits. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine. I have lots of free time to dedicate to your pets. Being home for the summer from school means I have even more flexibility to accommodate your schedule. Whether it's early morning, midday, or evening walks, or pet sitting, I'm available to provide the best care for your pet. I am available on weekdays and most weekends. In your home, I ensure your pet stays in a familiar environment. I provide feeding, walking, playtime, and any other necessary care to keep your pet comfortable and happy.

I can confidently say that I will always do what is in the best interest of your pet and take care of them like they are my own.
“My kitty, Poppy, loves Paul! Poppy greets him at the door and loves playing with him. Paul is also very patient and accommodating to my fearful cat. I feel very comfortable leaving my pets in his care.”
“They were so helpful and understanding of situations that came up. I'm also so thankful for them understanding how shy most of my cats are and allowed them to chill out of sight together.”
“Madeline has helped out with Cleo twice now. She has been amazing taking great care of her and taking her on walks and sending lots of photos of her! She truly does a great job!”
“Melita did an amazing job taking care of my dogs. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure they were comfortable and well looked after. I really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter and would happily book with her again in the future.”

“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 ❤”
“Maria takes fantastic care of my dog and is always willing to work with my schedule. I know I can go to work and not have to worry when my dog is at her house,”
“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.”

“Perseus and Dereck were great hosts to Spider. They took him in last minute. They provided photos during his short stay. I will definitely have them watch our dogs again. They deserve 10 stars!!”
About: I've had dogs most of my life. My Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is 3 years old and loves a friend. I have an 11 year old daughter that will also provide lots of love. Your dog won't just be boarded, they'll become a part of the family. No kennels necessary, they can sleep with me! I'm a stay at home mom. I love taking my dog out for walks around my quiet, dog friendly neighborhood. I'm home almost all the time. I'd love another doggy friend to visit us! I have tie outs for the dogs when they'd like fresh air. We go on walks as needed....and we can walk more if your dog loves it like mine does!
“Will and Sarah were great with Maple on her first doggy day care visit! Felt confident to leave her for the day and they were super flexible to accommodate my last minute work meetings. Will be going back for overnight soon.”

When it comes to watching other clients dogs I get a list and explanation of what you want me to do with your loved pet who is also like family.
“I was anxious to find a new daycare for my pup Dexter when I moved to the area. I’m so thankful that we found Mrs Monique, who welcomed Dexter into her home and eased all of my worries. I received updates which reassured me that Dexter was being well taken care of while I was away at work. By the second day, Dexter was so excited to be back at Mrs Monique’s house he walked right inside without a second glance. Could not recommend Monique’s doggy daycare enough.”
About: I’m a true animal lover. If it has paws, scales, fins, or whiskers, I’m already invested. I’ve cared for and fostered all kinds of pets over the years—dogs, cats, aquatic babies, reptiles, and the tiniest furry friends like bunnies and hamsters—so I’m comfortable across the board. To me, pets aren’t “just pets”…they’re family. My approach is calm, patient, and gentle. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and respect their boundaries so they always feel safe, understood, and comfortable. At home, I’ve got my own little zoo—2 sweet cats, a bearded dragon, 2 geckos, 4 snakes, and an adorable mouse—so trust me, I’m no stranger to unique personalities and specialized care. I would love to care for your pet when you need a break, go on vacation or when you make other plans. You can be assured that your pet is in good hands. To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. 📍 Located in Milwaukee – Capitol Heights area 🌻 I work from home so I’ll always have time to play, feed and love on your pet babies. I’m always flexible with their needs (bathroom breaks, medication, shyness) to make sure they are always comfortable. If my schedule or availability changes, I always send out updates to my calendar right away. ❤️ To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space for pets to roam, play and toilet if needed. Pets are always welcome to bring their own items. My 2 lovely cats are usually shy and more of the watching type, so they won’t bother your pets but will surely admire them from their cat trees. All activities and toileting are supervised. There is no smoking of any kind in my home or pet areas. There are some pictures of our living space in the photo collection on my Rover profile.
About: I have always had dogs and they have always been treated like a family member. I do not currently have any pets so your pet will be my priority. I am retired but work part time - mostly from home- so I will be with your pet full time. I will follow any instructions you provide about caring for your pet. I have a fenced yard and a very clean environment for your pet. Your pet will get all the attention it needs and I will treat your pet like he/she were my own.
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: Hi, my name is Lynn and my love for pets started at a young age. I find that dogs need more than love and affection. They need mental stimulation. While your dog is in my care, I assure you they will have all three. (Love, affection and mental stimulation) I have always had dogs my entire life. I currently have a 3 year old Lagotto Romagnolo named Bonita. She loves to play with other dogs big or small. I live across the street from a park so we will have plenty of play time. We will do lots of walks, play time as well and some down time. If you need help with basic obedience training, let's chat. If you have a kennel or doggy bed please bring it with you, as well as food and treats. I look forward to taking care of your dog(s)! Pet care is my life. I have a daily routine with my dog Bo. I take her to the dog park a few days a week and also let her run in the yard as well as across the street at the park. My days and hours are flexible, and someone is always home. I don't have a fenced in yard, but I will use a leash with your dog. I live on a quiet culdasac and have a park across the street for lots of play time.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of many temperaments, so caring for them has come naturally since I was young. I’ve helped friends and neighbors with their dogs, from playful puppies to the most anxious worriers and senior companions, prioritizing the mental and physical well-being of each one. I’m comfortable giving oral medications and happy to learn injections with guidance. I also work at a doggie daycare and love the work. I’m available most Fridays to Sundays, with flexible mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I enjoy keeping pets on regular routines and caring for them helps me stay active, spend time outdoors, and maintain a consistent daily schedule. I make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable by closely supervising them, keeping their environment clean and secure, and paying attention to their individual needs and routines. I handle all pets with patience and care, whether in my home or yours, and prioritize trust, consistency, and a calm, pet-friendly environment.

You can trust that your pup and your home are in good hands.

About: I have 20+ years of experience with a variety of pets. From dogs to reptiles and everything in between, I love them all. Growing up, I cared for dogs, cats and small rodents. Out of high school I adopted my first rescue dog and never looked back. I have worked with many rescue dogs over the years and went through basic training with each one. This helped me learn to accommodate for special needs and/or behaviors. I also have experience with giving pets medications and injections.

I will also do my best to stick to your instructions to keep your pet’s experience with me as consistent and stress free as possible.
“Paul was great as the first non-family walker of our six month old puppy. He helped Ollie on his waking protocol and gave him the exercise he needed. We will definitely use him again!”
“Maddalena is so helpful and flexible! I appreciate her thinking ahead- she saw it would be raining so she took our dog on a quick walk and then played with her inside. Dallie still got some energy out, and we couldn't be happier. :)”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, ensuring each walk is safe, engaging, and tailored to their individual needs. From energetic pups who love long, active outings to older dogs who prefer a slower pace, I focus on providing attentive, compassionate care every step of the way.

I keep the home tidy, ensure pets have fresh water at all times, and give them companionship and exercise based on their energy level. I also provide updates so owners feel reassured that their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Anne is amazing with Duke every time! I know he loves going for walks with her because he is always calmer when I get home from working my long shifts at the hospital. My Duke is in good hands when Anne is available to walk him and it is such a relief to have a reliable person 😊”
“We have been working with Haani for a month so far. She's so great with Gus! Since she started working with Gus, he's gotten better at understanding and listening to commands and not pulling when he's on his leash. He's always so happy to see her! Haani communicates well and is really reliable. We're excited to keep working with her.”

My job requires attention to detail, discretion, and a high level of reliability-all qualities I bring to every job. I’m here to be a responsible and reliable pet care giver while giving your pet the love and attention they deserve—so you can have peace of mind while you're away! I have a very open and flexible schedule—perfect for giving pets the time and attention they deserve! I'm able to adjust my routine to meet each pet's needs and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like they’re part of the family. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions you provide. I pay close attention to each pet’s comfort level and personality, whether that means giving them space to settle in or showering them with affection. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and aim to keep things tidy and calm. In my home, pets have a cozy, safe environment with plenty of love, supervision, and room to relax. Communication is key, so I always keep pet parents updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.

“Heather was fantastic! She knew how to handle my young, strong Doberman with ease. I will definitely use her again to walk my boy and recommend her to family and friends. Thanks again Heather!”

“Scott and Ashley took great care of our dog! They communicated well and made sure he was well taken care of with walks and play time. They clearly genuinely cared about him. We would definitely book with them again in the future.”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Sherry was so amazing in accommodating my senior pup within her home. Tedi was very comfortable and was able to enjoy all of her favorite things with Sherry from naps on the couch to car rides. I appreciated the photos and updates I received and could not have felt more comfortable being away from Tedi for an extended period of time. Definitely will be asking for a repeat stay should her schedule allow!”
“I absolutely loved my experience with the sitters! They’re so attentive, communicative, helpful in every way, I definitely will book again. I could tell with the updates that my dog was happy ( from photos I received every day) and very comfortable! It made my getaway so much easier to know he was well taken care of!”
“We felt very comfortable leaving our furry family member with Marie and her family! Marie did a great job sending pics and providing daily updates. Grace got lots of walks, treats and love! We’ll definitely be requesting Marie again.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and in our home, pets are truly family. I’m a mom to one little boy and also a proud dog mom to my fur babies. My family and I are all animal lovers, and we understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. We have rescued two of our family pets, one who has since passed and our current dog, Ollie. Because of Ollie, we know firsthand how important a safe and secure yard is. We live on an acre in Sussex with a fully fenced-in yard, which gives dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, sniff, and enjoy being outside. My husband and mom both work from home, so there is almost always someone here. This allows pets to have frequent potty breaks, outdoor time, attention, and company throughout the day. We love making dogs feel like part of our family while they are with us. I care for every pet the way I would want someone to care for my own, with patience, love, attention, and lots of updates. Whether your dog loves to play, relax, cuddle, or explore the yard, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved during their stay. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule. I am available for pet sitting at a clients home. I am also available for early morning walks or after work, and even drop in visits during the day. I care for other’s pets as I would want anyone to treat my own pets. I believe our pets are part of the family and I would want anyone to treat my pet to the best of their abilities.
“I enjoy this family so much! They do an amazing job taking care of my mini golden doodle KoKo. They are very knowledgeable and nurturing. The communication while KoKo is staying with them is top tier. KoKo also enjoys her time in their home. We’re now at a point where KoKo is very happy to see them and doesn’t even look back! 🤣 I highly recommend 💕”
“Monique was wonderful!! She kept up great communication and photos. My dog has separation anxiety and it’s clear he was comfortable in her home. Will definitely have him stay with Monique the next time we are in the area. Thanks, Monique!!!”
“Absolutely would recommend! My dog is VERY anxious and had never stayed with anyone other than myself so I was a little afraid of how he would do but Cindy did an amazing job. She sent me pictures daily and my dog looked happy and comfortable. She went above and beyond, will definitely book her again!”
“Katy and Dennis are a one in a million find! They take such great care for our high energy dogs, send daily photos, and our dogs are happy to visit them anytime! I highly recommend these two when looking for care for your pups!”
“Nikki was wonderful! My dog loved her and had the best stay! She was so kind, helpful in answering my questions as a first time Rover user, attentive, and again my dog loved her! Thanks again and we will book again whenever we need to!”
“Jennifer was very sweet and doted on Keeley. She allowed Keeley to sleep with her at night. It was just a one night stay but we were very pleased and thankful that Keeley was in good hands while we were gone.”
“Scott was very accommodating and communicative, we got several pictures and even a short video of our dog out playing in the fresh snow. Our dog has a fear of smooth floors and Scott was able to layout enough rugs and beds that Barley was comfortable. Will book again.”
“The best sitter we’ve used. Daniel meshed really well with our Black lab. He watched our dog for 12 days and had no issues. Frequent updates and open communication. Highly recommend!”
“Andrew helped watch my dog, Lucy, during a recent trip I had. He was very flexible and communicative throughout the process with drop off and pickup, and sent great photos throughout the stay to keep me comfortable regarding how Lucy was doing. Would absolutely book with him again.”
