Personalized care for your dog or cat - Zander

“Erika is an angel! First of all she agreed to care for our puppy 2 days after being spayed. Then our puppy did not do well and became ill with diarrhea and vomiting. She kept in close contact with us and continued to care for her. She had to make special food for our pup because of her diarrhea. Erika is just the sweetest person you will meet and she even washed all of the items in her kennel. We can not say enough positive things about her - if you need an angel to take care of your dog baby consider Erika!”
“Shana is amazing with our cockapoo. She treats him like he’s her family and sends me daily update and pictures. Gary loves going for sleepovers whenever we go on vacation. Definitely recommend”
“We were so happy to find Aryn on Rover to care for our dogs for a weekend away! She was especially patient with one of our dogs that experiences separation anxiety. We really appreciated her communication and care for our dogs!”
“Melissa did an amazing job! I would recommend her to anyone! My pup was well taken care of and loved the whole time she was there! Our dog has never been watched out of her home so for her first time ever going somewhere like this Melissa made my dog feel right at home and part of the family!”
“Anu and her family are the best!! They are so welcoming and our pup Daisy had such a fun time at their place, excellent communication and received many updates throughout the stay. Would 100% recommend 😊”
“Melissa was fabulous with Bear! This was our first time using Rover and we loved our experience! She sent pictures and kept us informed and was very transparent. Definitely recommend.”
“Daily pics or video of our boy living his best life away from home. Would completely use Heather and her family again in the future. Zeus was excited to get home, and promptly assumed his usual position relaxing on our couch after he went outside. 100% recommend!”
“Mary was amazing!! My dog does not normally like new people but he loved Mary and she took great care of him. I even had to book last minute because of a funeral. I was able to be fully present with my family at our time of loss because my dog was so well cared for. Thanks Mary!!”
“Kristal did an awesome job taking care of our 'baby" and making her feel at home while we were out of state for a wedding. She kept us up on how Shasta was doing & sent pictures each day. It was good to see how she had found her favorite spot in their home & also enjoyed their outside fenced-in yard. Since they no longer have a dog of their own & only take in one boarder at a time, she had more attention than some days at home! We would definitely take her to Kristal again.”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
About: Hi, I’m Bonnie! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to senior pets who need a little extra support. I currently share my home with a sweet 11-year-old Cocker Spaniel named Hannah, a playful 6-month-old Golden Mountain Dog named Ziggy, and an curious cat named Anakin, so I’m very comfortable caring for multiple pets with different needs and personalities. Friends and family regularly trust me to dog-sit and walk their pets, and I can honestly say I’ve never met a dog I didn’t fall in love with. Whether it’s long walks, backyard play, cuddles on the couch, or keeping up with feeding/medications, I treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. That’s why I provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you always feel connected and reassured. Pet care naturally fits into my daily life because I’m already spending time walking, playing with, and caring for my own pets. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I can easily adjust my routine to make sure every pet feels loved and cared for. Your pets will get plenty of belly rubs, backyard zoomies in my fenced yard, and lots of love and attention. At home or yours, I stick to their routines and keep you updated with happy pics so you know they’re safe, loved, and having fun.
“Julie was great! She watched our dog, Roo while we were away getting married and she was responsive, prompt, and provided us updates of how Roo was doing when she was with her. Thank you so much Julie!”
“Denise and her family took excellent care of Pete! She sent lots of pics to keep us updated the whole week. He loved his stay and playtime with their dog, Perry ?. He seriously can't stop smiling...lol. We definitely recommend Denise for dogsitting!”
“This was the first time using Rover and had a great experience with Holly and her family. We had 11 days reserved that turned into 12 due to a flight cancellation which Holly was able to accommodate. Once we came home, Max, my pup, went right to bed which means he was one tired pup. I’m sure the 3 dogs Holly has kept him going 24/7. Holly sent daily touch bases with pics throughout our trip which is all we were basically looking for. We hope to start to traveling more and Holly will be first on the Rover list.”

Cat caregivers near you - Zander
About: I’ve had cats my entire life, so loving your cats will be just as easy as loving mine! I have experience with kittens, adult cats and sick cats, and have experience administering oral medications as well as giving them that extra love they need when they’re not feeling well! I’ve worked with cats of all ages and temperaments, so I’m not scared of a few hisses, although I will respect their boundaries when need be. I’m a natural cat lover, so loving your little furbabies will come easy to me!
About: Cats have always been my favorite animals, despite working with just about every domestic animal. Grumpy cats (my personal favorite- I love a challenge!), playful kittens, Velcro cats, they’re all so fun to interact with. I’ve grown up taking care of cats, and have an almost annoying amount of knowledge about them. I am experienced in medicating especially difficult cats, and I can trim nails as well!
About: My family and I had a dog of our own for about 13 years during my childhood, allowing me to gain experience in feeding, training, and walking dogs. Now that she has sadly passed away, I would love to give other pets the same love I am no longer able to give to my own pet. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to smother your pets with my love! Late mornings and early afternoons are the times that typically work best for me, but I am flexible and willing to try anything! I will only allow pets that are fine being outside because my house does not allow pets indoors. I have a large yard surrounded by fields in a rural area where pets are free to roam in sight as long as they’re well-trained.
“We’re so grateful for the great care our cats received! She made sure they always had fresh food and water and kept an eye on everything while we were away. Our cats are pretty shy and tend to hide, but it gave us peace of mind knowing they were being checked on. We really appreciated her help and would happily recommend her!”
“Karlee was the perfect choice to check-in on our kitties while on vacation. She clearly loves animals and although they were hesitant with someone new, she was down on the floor talking to them and coaxing them out to play and cuddle. She even stopped by early one morning to make sure all was ok after a big storm the night before. She sent lots of pictures daily and provided a high level of comfort that they were being well taken care of while we were gone. We’ll definitely contact her again when needed.”
“Our normally well-behaved dogs decided to ransack their room while we were gone for an afternoon. Upon her arrival at our house, not only did Amanda straighten up their mess but she also fed them, spent plenty of time with them outside, sent me pics of her visit, and even left them treats for Christmas. Would highly recommend Amanda to anyone seeking a reliable, trustworthy pet sitter who goes the extra mile for her clients.”
About: I grew up with two dogs in the house as well as have watched and taken care of multiple friend’s pets when they have been out of town. I also have three cats of my own. I work full time from 8-5:00pm Monday through Thursday. 8am-11:30am on Friday. Weekends work well for overnight care. Available before and after work and days off are full attention to pet. I make sure that they are properly nourished and taken care of as well as given attention so that they don’t feel alone. I treat them as if they were my own.
“Anne was wonderful with my cat, Lia. My cat seemed to enjoy the visits and extra attention. Anne was also great with communication and sending photos of what Lia was up to. Will definitely reach out to Anne in the future when needed!”
“Brittany did a fantastic job with my crew of 4 dogs!! They loved her. She gave updates after each visit and was very quick on her response. I will absolutely reach out to her again to care for my fur babies. Thank you Brittany!!!”
“Jeanne took excellent care of my cats! She watched my cats shortly after I moved so they were still stressed in their new, unfamiliar environment, but they were comfortable with her and even came out to play!”
About: We love caring for dogs! We have 2 dogs, both turning 2 in July. They both love all animals. We are experienced with cats and dogs. I would prefer dogs with experience with cats but they are fairly savvy and we have safe places within our home for them if needed. We work full time but we are available during weekends. We can be available for most weekend nights and kennel if needed during the week. Our home is extremely dog friendly. Fenced in backyard, many toys. Our home is their home! We will take them for walks daily and get plenty of exercise and activities. They will have plenty of activity to tire them out by the time they will get home.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Zander
“Kenzie is so great with our pup!! Her entire family treats her as if she was theirs :) She loves to visit and always comes back tired from playing with other dogs and the family. Finding Kenzie has been a blessing because as our pup has aged she just doesn’t do well with kennel boarding anymore. Highly recommend her to anyone that wants their dog to feel loved while you are away!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been involved in their daily care including feeding, walking, and playtime. As a former college athlete, I’m very active and dependable, and would love to take your dog on walks and runs. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and will take care of your pet like it’s my own. I also have experience with off leash training! I recently graduated college and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily prioritize your pet’s needs. As a former college athlete, I’m used to maintaining a consistent routine and being dependable. I’m available throughout the day and can adapt to your pet’s specific schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for pets. I do not currently have any pets, so your dog will have my full attention. I have a large backyard and plenty of indoor space for dogs to play and relax. I live in a quiet, residential area that is great for walks, and I always prioritize safety, supervision, and your pet’s comfort.
“Mackenzie was the absolute perfect dog sitter for our sweet Maverick! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. It was clear she loved and cared for him as if he were her own, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away at the Packers game. She kept us updated with pictures and made sure Maverick had everything he needed — including lots of love and snuggles! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Mackenzie to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and who truly loves animals. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boy!”
“Always a joy to have Shanna watch my little Doodle. She takes care of him so well. His little tummy was upset so she made him some chicken amd rice to settle his belly. She asked me first.to see if it was ok. Love having her with my dog”
“Bonnie was amazing with our dog Cinnamon! We were in town for my daughter’s dance competition when a blizzard completely changed our plans. Bonnie was incredibly understanding and accommodating when we unexpectedly had to stay an extra night because travel was so dangerous. She even offered to help with anything Cinnamon might need since we hadn’t planned on being away another day. Cinnamon had a wonderful time playing with Bonnie’s fur babies and came home happy and completely exhausted from all the fun. If you’re looking for someone who will truly care for your pup like their own, Bonnie is fantastic. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was 12, when my family welcomed our first puppy. Over the years, my sister’s large dog and our family dog have grown up together, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve also regularly cared for relatives’ dogs while they were away, building trust and hands on experience. Dogs truly are loyal, loving companions, and I take pride in providing them with attentive, responsible care. Thank you for taking time to look through my profile!🫶 I go to school but am done by 4 and can be available for the afternoon. I love taking care of all dogs in my free time. I have a big backyard and a nice neighborhood to take dogs on a walk. I also have 2 dogs (one teddy Pom pup) and (standard poodle) they are both really friendly! There is also a park only 7 minutes from my house!
“I truly appreciate Colleen for taking care of my fur baby all day! She is super nice and took very good care of my fur baby! I definitely recommend her. If and when I am back in Greenbay I will for sure do another booking with her.”
“Isaiah is a very knowledgeable and nurturing dog sitter. He handled my rambunctious pup with expert care, and his dog Finley graciously scaled down his play to match my wee one. Would highly recommend for walking, watching, or boarding.”
About: Please read the entire profile. I did grow up with a Dalmatian dog. My dad was a firefighter, and came home with Pepper Christmas morning. My sister had a mini goldendoodle. I would stop daily after work around 3:45pm to play and take walks. I took a separation package from my employer 5/1/25 and now would like to offer walks, daycare, drop in visits and boarding . With boarding, For larger dogs, they WILL be crated at night. Your dog will be crated when I play pickleball in the mornings. I do have a crate(s). Please note if sending a request there may be a delay in responding due to pickleball between 9:30 - 12:30 approximate times. I currently have two dog walking appointments from 11:45am -1:45pm Monday-Thursday. Having retired 5/1/25, I have the time to provide loving care, playtime and walks with your pet. I will provide pictures and updates to you. No fence but can play fetch in the front/backyard or take your dog to dog park if they are ok with it. Please provide details or special needs. I look forward to providing belly rubs, snuggles and loving care.
About: I and my family are available to take care of your pet during the day, overnight, whenever is needed! We have owned several dogs and cats over our lifetimes and have taken care of many peoples pets. We have a deep passion for animals and will give your pet the very best care. We have been very active with Rover and have owned dogs for roughly 20 years and are only recently without dogs since our last one passed away a few years ago. Since we like to travel now that we’re older we decided not to adopt any more dogs but miss them and are happy to give our love to yours! We have two cats of our own and can never have too many animals to love on and play with! I or my husband and adult daughter are available full time most days including weekends. Please feel free to contact me to reserve the days you need pet sitting or other services. I have a fenced yard to keep your dog happy and entertained.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even the more unique critters! I have experience with animals of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets who need a little extra TLC. As a proud pet parent to two Great Danes, I understand just how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. My top priorities are making sure your pets feel happy, safe, and comfortable while you're away, and I treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine—I’m a stay-at-home mom, and I work around my kids’ homeschooling schedule. That means I’m home throughout the day and night, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. If your pet is staying with us for boarding, they’ll never be left alone—we’re always home, and your furry friend will be treated like part of the family. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday cuddles, or nighttime check-ins, I have the flexibility to meet your pet’s needs with love and consistency. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where animals can relax and feel at home—whether I’m visiting your house or welcoming your pet into mine. I follow each pet’s unique routine and take time to understand their needs, behaviors, and preferences. I’m experienced with crates, medications, feeding routines, and even a little light training reinforcement if needed. In our home, your pet will be surrounded by love and never left alone—we’re always home, and your pet will get plenty of attention and care. I live with two gentle Great Danes and two calm, pet-friendly cats, all of whom are well-socialized and respectful of new guests. We keep our environment clean, peaceful, and low-stress to make every pet feel safe and welcome. I’m also happy to go the extra mile—whether that means watering your plants, bringing in packages, or keeping you updated with sweet photo messages. I truly care about your pets and your peace of mind.

About: A Home Away from Home for Your Beloved Pet Animals have always been at the center of my life. I’m the kind of person you’ll see pulled over on the side of the road, coaxing a frightened or injured animal to safety. Caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's who I am. When one of my dogs developed severe arthritis and could no longer enjoy walks, I repurposed a wagon and some old downhill skis into a sled so she could still take in the fresh air and sights of winter. That’s the kind of care and creativity I bring to every animal in my life. Your pet will be treated like family here. Whether they’re most comfortable relaxing in a private room or hanging out with the rest of us in the house, we make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. If your pet prefers some solo R&R, we absolutely respect that too. For peace of mind, I use a pet camera so I can keep an eye on things throughout the day—and I’m happy to share photos and updates with you during their stay. With hands-on experience in animal shelters, rescues, and private training facilities, I’m confident working with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. My background has also given me extensive knowledge of animal health, medications, and disease management. If your pet requires medication or has special health needs, you can trust that they’re in capable hands. Additional Experience & Amenities: Certified in Animal CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS) Experienced with grooming basics including ear cleaning and nail trimming Fully fenced-in yard for safe playtime Mini pet pool and lots of toys for enrichment in warmer months Important Notes: All pets must be up-to-date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention (during summer) We require a meet-and-greet before your pet's stay to ensure a good fit for everyone Please let us know if your pet has any behavioral issues (around food, toys, or beds) or requires a specific medication or feeding routine We’re so excited to meet you and your furry friend—and to provide them with the love, care, and comfort they deserve! Thank you! I work full-time but come home for lunch. So your pet wouldn't wait more than 4 hours to be let out. We spend alot of time outside, like to go for walks or just relax in the backyard. I have a large fenced in backyard providing lots of room to run and play. I have a entire room dedicated to the pets that stay over if they need some quiet alone time. They are welcome to be in the house with the rest if my family but have the option to have their space as well.
About: I am specialized in training all types of dogs! I make sure that the dog is taken care of and is having a blast while the parents are gone!

I have tons of grass area at my house, and have a ton of room as well for the dog to move around and play when needed!
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels — from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important routine, patience, and positive attention are to your pet’s well-being. I’ve also worked with shy or reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable following any special instructions to make sure your pup feels safe and loved while you’re away. My schedule is currently wide open, so I’m flexible and ready to accommodate your dog’s needs — whether it’s daily walks, last-minute bookings, or ongoing care. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Let’s find a time that works best for you and your pup! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

I closely follow your instructions and routines to keep your pet feeling secure and cared for.
“Olivia had great communication and flexibility with drop off and pick up times. My dogs were very happy and pooped out from playing all day. I most certainly would have Olivia take care of Daisy and Theo again.”

“Melissa does so well with sunny. She comes in on time, and made it so much easier for us as my wife had surgery and I was working from home. Highly highly recommend. I never worry where sunny is or what hes up to and he loves seeing her.”
About: Hi, I'm Mel! I grew up surrounded by pets, and that passion grew into a lifelong career in animal care. I bring over a decade of professional facility experience to Rover, including serving as a Pack Leader at Tailwaggers Doggy Daycare and spending seven years as a specialized Caregiver at the world-renowned Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah. There, I worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and behavioral needs, including dog-selective and dog-aggressive behaviors. Currently, I keep my skills sharp working part-time as a Kennel Technician at a daycare and boarding facility right here in Green Bay. Because of my professional background, I’m highly experienced with administering medications, recognizing subtle body language, and reinforcing basic training. I know how important routine is, so I am more than happy to strictly follow whatever household rules you have set for your pet. Whether your furbaby is a social butterfly or a quiet soul who needs a patient, gentle approach, I have the intuitive skills to make them feel safe and loved. When I’m not caring for your pets, I’m hanging out with my own senior "puppy," a 9-year-old dog named Alba (pictured with me!), and my 14-year-old "kitten." I love house-sitting, overnight stays, and dog walking, and my ultimate goal is to give you total peace of mind while you're away. I can’t wait to meet your furbabies! My part-time schedule as a local kennel technician makes me incredibly flexible for pet sitting! I work from 7:00 AM – 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM – 6:30 PM (about 25 hours a week), which leaves my entire midday window from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM wide open for lunchtime walks, playtime, and companionship. I am also available for quick check-ins before my morning shift, and my evenings are completely free after 6:30 PM for late-night cuddles and dedicated overnight stays. Because my daily job already centers around professional feeding, medicating, and cleaning, keeping your pet's routine seamless and sanitary between my shifts is second nature to me! My goal is to keep your pets in their happiest, most comfortable element, which is why I specialize in caring for them right in their own home! With over a decade of professional animal facility experience and a huge heart for all creatures, I pride myself on being the next best thing to you when you’re away. I am fully backed by Rover and prioritize open, consistent communication—sending you regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they are in safe hands. As a major bonus, I am an exceptionally tidy person who genuinely enjoys cleaning. My past clients have always loved coming home to happy, healthy, stress-free pets and a thoroughly clean, respected house! 🧽🐾
“We are fortunate to have Annie on an on-going basis to visit our dog Molly for potty breaks and walks while we are at work. Annie always responds promptly to any communication, questions or booking inquiries. When she visits Molly she leaves a detailed log about the visit. It's obvious that Annie loves pets and she goes above and beyond to give Molly love, affection, attention, exercise and an outdoor break each visit. When Annie is scheduled to visit, we know Molly will receive great care and a needed break and that gives us tremendous peace of mind. We love Annie!”
About: I love taking care of all different kinds of pets, I love working with pets that have unique personalities. There is still so many breeds of both dogs and cats that I would love to be able to take care of. I am currently working part-time at a pet boarding/ daycare facility and still going to school. I still seem to have time that I feel as if I am wasting and need something to fill that void. In my clients home I will try to stick to the instructions that they give me when I am caring for their pet. I will also do anything extra depending on the pet and the different needs that they may have. (Ex. If they are a senior pet or a puppy)
About: I owned a dog for over a decade, and babysat dogs/ cats many times. I worked with animals at a zoo so I’m good at reading them and respecting their boundaries! I work second shift (3-11pm) M-F so check ins would work best for those days. I can still dog/cat sit during the weekdays if you’re are okay with your pets being alone for a full shift, or being watched by my parents (while pets are boarded at our house). My weekends are completely open! I have a large backyard and tennis court. I also live near a very nice bike trail for long walks. I have no other animals in the house. I have ramps for small/old dogs.

About: Several years of experience with out pay. I have been around pups and dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. I am extremely great with animals. I promise to take care of your family member just as I would my own. Mine are most likely better taken care of then most people's children! I am very efficient, caring and wear my heart on my sleeve. I also have fostered animals in need. You will be nothing less than happy with my services. I am used to working with large animals to small animals. I want to be able to make the animals feel like they are at home when they see me walking through the door. I hope this all helps you when considering me.

I have a crate if needed. I will respect and follow any instructions when caring for your fur babies in your home. I will love and treat them like my own.
About: We have experience with aggressive dogs, training dogs, administering medication, excellent communication, attention to detail, and lots of love in whatever way best suits the pet! Starting August 1st I will be around the house just leaving to get kids from school M-F. My husband works from home and we have 3 responsible teenagers that assist (14,16,17) your pets will always have someone around and attending to their needs. I have a fenced yard, a 5 year old husky mix who is super submissive and gentle, a cat who can handle himself and will either play with your dog or hide and watch from a safe distance :). We have had fosters before and if there is any cat to have around your dog it’s him! We love going for walks, playing fetch, tug of war, walks, or just cuddles! Whatever your animal is up for!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, I know nothing other than dogs. Raised both boys and girls. Currently, raising a 105 lb., 3 year old red gold retriever Mowgli and loving it. He plays well with others! Until further notice, I’m open at all hours of the day. I usually start my day around 5 am to about 9 pm per my puppy’s routine. However, open to any at the time being. I am taking a short leave from my full time position. My home is a family home we’ve grown up in the last seven years or so- plush grass, friendly dog neighbors, friendly neighbors, a lot of exercise in walking (I’ve gone as far as a half marathon once, not saying that’s the plan though unless you’re looking to train for a half marathon of course… lol)

“Erika is an angel! First of all she agreed to care for our puppy 2 days after being spayed. Then our puppy did not do well and became ill with diarrhea and vomiting. She kept in close contact with us and continued to care for her. She had to make special food for our pup because of her diarrhea. Erika is just the sweetest person you will meet and she even washed all of the items in her kennel. We can not say enough positive things about her - if you need an angel to take care of your dog baby consider Erika!”
“Shana is amazing with our cockapoo. She treats him like he’s her family and sends me daily update and pictures. Gary loves going for sleepovers whenever we go on vacation. Definitely recommend”
“We were so happy to find Aryn on Rover to care for our dogs for a weekend away! She was especially patient with one of our dogs that experiences separation anxiety. We really appreciated her communication and care for our dogs!”
“Melissa did an amazing job! I would recommend her to anyone! My pup was well taken care of and loved the whole time she was there! Our dog has never been watched out of her home so for her first time ever going somewhere like this Melissa made my dog feel right at home and part of the family!”
“Anu and her family are the best!! They are so welcoming and our pup Daisy had such a fun time at their place, excellent communication and received many updates throughout the stay. Would 100% recommend 😊”
“Melissa was fabulous with Bear! This was our first time using Rover and we loved our experience! She sent pictures and kept us informed and was very transparent. Definitely recommend.”
“Daily pics or video of our boy living his best life away from home. Would completely use Heather and her family again in the future. Zeus was excited to get home, and promptly assumed his usual position relaxing on our couch after he went outside. 100% recommend!”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
About: Hi, I’m Bonnie! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to senior pets who need a little extra support. I currently share my home with a sweet 11-year-old Cocker Spaniel named Hannah, a playful 6-month-old Golden Mountain Dog named Ziggy, and an curious cat named Anakin, so I’m very comfortable caring for multiple pets with different needs and personalities. Friends and family regularly trust me to dog-sit and walk their pets, and I can honestly say I’ve never met a dog I didn’t fall in love with. Whether it’s long walks, backyard play, cuddles on the couch, or keeping up with feeding/medications, I treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. That’s why I provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you always feel connected and reassured. Pet care naturally fits into my daily life because I’m already spending time walking, playing with, and caring for my own pets. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I can easily adjust my routine to make sure every pet feels loved and cared for. Your pets will get plenty of belly rubs, backyard zoomies in my fenced yard, and lots of love and attention. At home or yours, I stick to their routines and keep you updated with happy pics so you know they’re safe, loved, and having fun.
“Julie was great! She watched our dog, Roo while we were away getting married and she was responsive, prompt, and provided us updates of how Roo was doing when she was with her. Thank you so much Julie!”
“Denise and her family took excellent care of Pete! She sent lots of pics to keep us updated the whole week. He loved his stay and playtime with their dog, Perry ?. He seriously can't stop smiling...lol. We definitely recommend Denise for dogsitting!”
“This was the first time using Rover and had a great experience with Holly and her family. We had 11 days reserved that turned into 12 due to a flight cancellation which Holly was able to accommodate. Once we came home, Max, my pup, went right to bed which means he was one tired pup. I’m sure the 3 dogs Holly has kept him going 24/7. Holly sent daily touch bases with pics throughout our trip which is all we were basically looking for. We hope to start to traveling more and Holly will be first on the Rover list.”
About: I've taken care of animals of all different species and sizes throughout my life, I've always found a deeper connection with animals, and the more I care for them, the more I see that. For Dogs, I can get along with most, although I am admittedly spooked by bigger or more aggressive dogs (Cane Corso's for reference). And as for cat's, I'm always willing to take carr of another feline friend, my closest animal companions in life have been cats! I can respect a cats boundaries very well. Notes: For dogs with Clicker training, I do own a clicker. I cannot allow other cats in my home, as one of my cats is not friendly with others. I'm typically up very early to feed my cat and spend whatever free time I have giving him attention and love while I relax. I am currently unemployed, so I can tend to pets around the clock! My yard is not fenced, I can keep a dog close if need be. I am more than willing to take pets on walks to the park, or outdoors in general. I can adapt to most any animals schedule pretty easily. My house is pretty large, so most animals will have plenty of space to roam and get comfy, and I can make accommodations for any special pet gear needed. List of tasks or care instructions would be highly appreciated, and would help me stick to a given schedule.
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Sara was awesome! Got pics and updates and so understanding when our plane was delayed! The dogs had a nice fenced in backyard to play abs got lots of love♥️ We absolutely love her and will use her again.”
