“My family had an amazing experience with Ashley. She and her family provided exceptional service while taking care of our dog, during a long boarding. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. When we returned, my dog was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Ashley. Thank you for taking such great care of our dog! We will definitely look for availability with you for any future boarding needs.”
“Absolutely best service. Gave plenty of updates and even pictures. Made me feel very safe about leaving my bb with her. Everything was super easy. Will book again.”
“This is the second time we have entrusted Peaches to the care of this wonderful family, and we are just as pleased as the first time—Peaches clearly is as well. We are truly grateful to have found them. Their warmth and attentiveness toward Peaches is remarkable. They are the ideal caregivers anyone could find!!”
“It was a pleasure having Heather watch our dog for us. We were gone for about 11 days in total. Heather provided daily updates and photos keeping us well informed on how our dog was doing during her stay. We would definitely recommend Heather to others.”
“Sunshine and her kids are amazing! Easy communication and a lot of pictures. Lolla is back home and for the first time she’s not stressed with our absence. I highly recommend Sunshine.”
“Shyla is the best! So attentive and knowledgeable about cats. She kept us informed about any behavior she felt might be out of the ordinary, and sent photos and videos periodically so that we could see how he was doing. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about Calvin- We knew he was in good hands!”

“Laura was great! Our dog Dolly seemed well taken care of. Dolly got along really good with her labrador Diesel. He is a sweet boy. Highly recommend her and have scheduled for future plans. Theresa W.”
“It was our first time using Rover for our chocolate lab and we found Debbie. We had a lovely meet and greet and she took care of Brinkley as if she were our own family. She definitely gives off the “Cool Aunt” vibes! Debbie took Brinkley on plenty of walks and spoiled him with cuddles. I loved the updates and photos throughout our booking as it gave us peace of mind. I already booked her for future travels!”
“Tony was great with Archie. He sent photos and videos which I really liked to see. Archie looked like he really enjoyed himself. Would highly recommend Tony. Thanks again for having Archie in your home”
“I knew Rupert would be in excellent care from the moment we met Rebecca & her family prior to his stay. They are very friendly, easy-going people who clearly enjoy welcoming new dogs into their home. Rupert is very social & has a lot of energy. It was perfect that they have dogs of their own & a large fenced-in yard, giving Rupert plenty of room & freedom to run & play with his new friends. I appreciated the daily check-ins, complete with pictures & videos & short reports about how Rupert was doing. I will definitely be booking again in the future.”
“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”
“Joanne was absolutely wonderful with our dog, she was very responsive to our request, accommodating to our time windows, and kept in communication with us the entire time we were gone. She was so loving and welcoming to our dog that he didn’t even want to come home! Highly recommended!”

“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was.

I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”

“Ky was awesome with our kitty Ryn. It usually takes a while for Ryn to cuddle new people but she bonded really quick with Ky. Ky did a great job housesitting. She took care of the house really well. We will definitely be requesting Ky's services in the future.”
“Kailey was a wonderful pet sitter! Before we left she made sure she understood what we were looking for and while we were gone, sent many great pictures and a detailed report of how our cats were doing. I highly recommend her!”
“Many thanks to Jody for taking such excellent care of my cranky cat. Jody listened so carefully during our "getting to know you" visit that I knew she wouldn't miss a beat in Ben's daily routine. Her emails and photos reassured me that he was a happy camper while we were gone. I really think that her care and attention brought out an affectionate side of him I didn't know he had! I was better able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing he was being looked after by a responsible person with lots of experience. I would not hesitate to book Jody's services again.”
“Shyla is the best! So attentive and knowledgeable about cats. She kept us informed about any behavior she felt might be out of the ordinary, and sent photos and videos periodically so that we could see how he was doing. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about Calvin- We knew he was in good hands!”
“Shawn is a very reliable and wonderful sitter. He spent quality time with our very needy, geriatric cat. We feel so much better that he stops in. We definitely would recommend him,”
“Michelle has been excellent ! We are so fortunate our Mabel had such awesome care and attention . We felt very comfortable having Michelle in our home and spending time with our best girl ! I highly recommend Michelle to anyone who loves their pet(s) and wants the security of knowing they are loved and cared for 1,000% of the time . I was nervous to use Rover as I am first time user . Michelle made it so easy and comfortable .”
“She was exceptional with my baby, Molly. Molly is normally extremely slow to warm up to people but she immediately took to Genevieve. She kept me updated with pictures and texts, followed my instructions, and most of all kept my girl safe from a murderous wasp and loneliness while I rudely went on vacation without her. There’s nothing better than a cat sitter who loves your girl as much as you do.”
“We’ve been using Cayla for our Golden Retrievers since October 2025. She is wonderful! She really cares for the dogs and can tell that she really loves seeing them each time. She goes above and beyond for the dogs and us too. Cayla is also extremely dependable, which is huge for us. We feel VERY comfortable knowing that she is taking care of our babies on the days we work. We highly recommend Cayla!!”
“My somewhat shy and very skittish pups. Emmi and Avrie, loved Megan from the first moment they met her! She took great care of them while I was away and even gave one a bath after a "fecal incident", including snuggle time after so my pup was warm and calm before Megan left. She even put my personal bedding in to wash so I didn't have to come home to a mess!!! I will definitely be using her again :D”
About: I have had all kinds of dogs & a cat since I was a kid; Schnauzers, Beagles, Pittie mixes, and a Chihuahua. My girlfriend & I currently have a 10 year old pitty named Cannoli, a son to be 2 year old pitty- Great Pyrenees named Carl and 2 12 year old chihuahuas named Tyson and Felix. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets while they are away. I am currently available during the week Monday-Friday 10am-10pm (and some weekends), so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for walks or drop ins. Would love to regularly walk or drop in with your furry friends weekly or a few times a week! Active pet sitter near parks & walking trails. I enjoy taking pups on long walks or runs outdoors, or even just providing some company in the house while your are away.
“Finally! We have found the perfect cat and house sitter. Terri did an amazing job taking care of both while we were gone for 2 weeks. Our house was just as clean as I left it (I am a little OCD when it comes to that) and our little ball of fur was happy. Terri sent pictures daily and updated us each day with how Callie was doing. You could tell from the pictures our kitty was relaxed and comfortable with Terri. I would highly recommend Terri to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family member and home. She is amazing!!”
“Alex was great! We knew our cats were well taken care of and got lots of love while we were gone. She did a great job with everything, including their complicated feeding routine. We also appreciate the updates and pictures while we were gone. Will definitely book her again!”
About: (I go by Dakota, so some testimonies might call me that) I started off pet sitting for neighbors when I was about 14. I would feed, let out, and walk the dogs, and feed and clean cat litter boxes as needed. I moved up to dog sitting for family friends, old coworkers, and coworkers’ clients about three years ago, where I would do the same, and even bathe dogs if needed. I have experience pet sitting rodents and reptiles as well! I am currently not working a job, so I have all the time to give your babies the love and attention they need and deserve! I have experience with body language in dogs, so I can always tell when your baby is happy, upset, or uncomfortable. If you don’t have a fenced in yard, no problem! I can take your fur baby on a secure leash outside!
About: I have personally had cats throughout my life. I am an experienced pet sitter typically caring for dogs but would be happy to help out with cats as well. I have 4 years of pet sitting experience for various types of animals and would love to help care for your pets!

“We love Sandy and so do our dogs! We honestly don’t know what we would do without her. She takes such great care of our girls that they seem completely unimpressed when we come to pick them up at the end of each stay. Highly recommend!”
“Kim was great and very accommodating. She took on Charlie last minute since he couldn't go to doggie daycare due to stitches. She was very caring and I felt like he was in great hands.”
“Elba had her hands full with our very spunky and relentlessly playful pup, but she did a fantastic job caring for Libby and patiently handling her with her high energy. Libby fell fast asleep once we came home and she slept the entire rest of the evening and night. She was worn out! I definitely recommend Elba and we can't wait to come back again!”
“Tia and Colin took amazing care of our girl and she had an amazing day! Tia sent lots of photos and updates and was extremely communicative and caring! We will rebook any time we’re back in Wisconsin! Thanks again!”
“Sunshine and her two wonderful children are the absolute best! This was the first time my 12 month old miniature long hair Dachshund has stayed with anyone and I felt that she was extremely well cared for. Will definitely use Sunshine again!!”
“Miranda is the best. She takes such good care of our people-shy dog. She was patient with him and let him warm up to her on his own, and now he loves going to her house...full on butt wiggles when he makes his way over to her. It gives us great piece of mind to know that he’s so well taken care of.”
“Wonderful with my boy! Accomodating and I loved receiving photos and updates during the day. My pup is now happily snoozing away his exciting fun day! Very pleased! Will use again!”
“Cassie is an amazing sitter - she is so friendly and communicative, and took in my dog Abby when I was in need of last-minute day care. She sent photos and videos throughout the day, and even helped my shy dog warm up to her sweet pup. I felt so comfortable knowing Abby was in her hands and would 1000% book with her again! She is a friendly dog lover and Abby and I both look forward to seeing her next time.”
“Teresa and her husband were incredibly accommodating when it came down to my last minute schedule. My dog had a blast with all of theirs, and promptly fell asleep a minute after getting into the truck to go home. I was kept up to date with pics and videos throughout her time there to let me know she was ok and having a great time. I'll absolutely be using them again to care for my dog, they were absolutely terrific.”
“Rob did a wonderful job with Greta, our CavaBear. Greta has anxiety; especially around other dogs, due to a couple of negative experiences with unleashed neighborhood dogs; so we were so grateful to hear that he only takes one dog at a time. She looked so content in the picture Rob sent us 🥹 Our reason for, and time of, our need for a Rover was pretty unorthodox, but Rob was so flexible, understanding and laid back. If we are ever in the Sturtevant, WI area again, we hope Rob will be available to watch Greta 🐾”
“Service is always fantastic! They post on social media daily to let you see your pups! We love dropping Mabel off knowing she is in good care! Heated warehouse for playing and plenty of toys! There is also a rest period which is amazing. Mabel is always so tired when she comes home. They offer pet grooming services!!!”
“Carol and Steve are excellent hosts. Our Cavapoo is extremely anxious and they provided personal attention to keep him calm. I got multiple messages with photos that made me comfortable. Already reserved more days. I would highly recommend their services.”

Our puppy adores her, and Cayla is SO patient- even when our girl throws a curveball at her every day, she always finds a way to keep their walks going! It’s comforting knowing she is in such trustworthy hands while having so much fun. Highly recommend Cayla!”

About: I have had animals my whole life. I have experience with dogs primarily, but I have experience with fish, Guinea pigs, cats, and birds! Any time friends/family leave town, I’m the one they call. Always open to questions☺️ I currently have my kitty Sol in my home, but I always take care of my 2 pups on the weekend, and I took care of them everyday when I was a kid! Dogs are my Bestfriend☺️ I have special treats and food I feed to each of my dogs, as they are different ages and breeds. I try to stay on top of new diets I see online, and vet check them beforehand. I have always followed the rule: leave the area nicer when you found it, so if the dog has an accident, no problem!
