“Our puppy Luca had such a great time with Heather and her family! We could have not asked for better care for our boy! Heather was so attentive to Lucas needs and how to keep him active, engaged, and happy. We received lots of pictures and videos while we were gone giving us peace of mind. Luca loved playing with the family dog and even had extra pup company while enjoying a beautiful evening outside by the fire. We will absolutely have Heather and her family sit for us again!”
“Jayme took great care of our Goldendoodle while we were on vacation for a week. When we returned home, he was happy and content! Jayme does well with all types of dogs. We’d definitely go with her again!”
“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Ashley and her family. Penelope has stayed with Ashley before, and it is so clear how much they genuinely adore her — and the feeling is absolutely mutual! Ashley is incredible about sending me photos and little updates throughout the day, so I always know how Penelope is doing and what kind of fun she is getting into. There is such a difference between knowing your pet is being well cared for and knowing she is being genuinely loved while you’re away, and with Ashley, I never have to worry for a second. Her entire family is so incredibly sweet to Penelope, and she is clearly completely comfortable and happy in their home. When I picked her up today, she genuinely seemed like she would have preferred to stay with them rather than come home with me — which I suppose is the highest praise a pet sitter can receive 😂 Ashley has become someone I completely trust with Penelope, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be back!”
“Andrew and his family treated my Oscar as part of their family. He was in constant communication with me while I was away in Italy for almost 3 weeks. Andrew is very kind and very easy/flexible. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy person to watch their furbabies! Thank you Andrew!”
“Nina has stayed with her twice now, and both experiences have been absolutely wonderful. She treats Nina with so much love, patience, and care that I always have complete peace of mind while I’m away. I always receive updates and photos, and it is clear that Nina is happy, safe, and loved. Seeing how comfortable and relaxed Nina is with her means everything to me. She has earned my complete trust, and she will always be my first choice whenever I need someone to care for Nina. I recommend her with all my heart. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my little girl!”
“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 🐾”
“Scott is a great communicator. He provided a wonderful environment for Jameson. Very attentive to our needs. Very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would recommend him to everyone who is interested in getting great care for their dogs!”
“Max and his girlfriend took great care of my pup!! She loved having other dogs to play with. Max has a wonderful personality and vibe. He is very compassionate and you can tell has a spot in his heart for dogs. My pup had a ton of time playing outside, took walks and had a park adventure. Max is accommodating and was happy go alloys my pup to relax on the furniture and most importantly sleep/snuggle up in bed at night. Would HIGHLY recommend anyone to Max gor dog sitting.”
“Tia and Colin are AMAZING!! They were so warm, welcoming and caring for my pups while I was out of town. They graciously opened their home for dog sitting and I don’t think my pups were ready to leave!! They went above and beyond in making sure my dogs were loved and cared for. I especially appreciated the updates and pics while I was away. If you are looking for outstanding care and attention, I HIGHLY recommend Tia and Colin!!”
“Stella stayed with Dawn and her family for a few days. Overall, the stay sounds like it went well. She has a nice fenced yard for her to run and play ball. They communicated and sent pictures and were quick to respond to messages.”
“Zach was great! I really appreciate he receives one client per booking, that was helpful for my anxious dog. They loved being couch potatoes and going to the outside to play and hunt invisible animals. My dogs felt at home really fast! Also he was willing to learn a couple of commands in Spanish to communicate with my mexican dogs ❤️.”
“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.”
“Christina was excellent!!! She took great care of our 8 yr old dog while we were away for a summer vacay and was kind enough to send daily updates and pictures of our fur baby. She was very quick with her responses from our first messages about sitting to our meet and greet and while we were away…which I truly appreciated! Yoshi is a picky eater and she was able to get to him eat and also take his nightly meds. She and her other pets welcomed Yoshi into her home and treated him like one of her own. We would definitely book again with Christina again! 😊”
“Emily and her family were AMAZING with my puppy. They are loving, fun, and so easy to work with. I would highly recommend them to anyone! Emily is very knowledgeable in dog care and is a great problem solver. She updated me with the important information and handled the rest flawlessly. My pup clung to her just like he does to me. She was loved by him for sure. Take it from an overprotective mama, book with her!!! You won’t regret it!”
“Amanda was wonderful. She took such good care of my dog and sent me lots of updates throughout his stay. She was super flexible and easy to get ahold of the entire time!”
“Mary was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable leaving turbo with her! She got back to us so quickly and kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout turbos stay. We appreciate the care you provided and are so thankful for your hospitality. Thank you for everything 🩷 🐾 turbo was exhausted when he came home.”
“Awesome dog sitters! Gigi left happy and I received a ton of pictures, updates while I was out of town. They were flexible with her needs as she is a senior dog. I would absolutely use their services again!”

We booked for Kandice to take care of our dog Nix for nearly three weeks as we traveled internationally for our wedding and honeymoon. She had exceptional communication and sent us so many pictures and videos of our dog which made us feel so comforted and reassured as this was the longest we’d been away from her! It’s clear that Nix was relaxed with her and that she was well taken care of. I would recommend Kandice to anyone, and plan to book with her again for any of our future needs!
Lauren is the best! She took care of Winter really well. I received updates from her and did not have to worry at all while we were on vacation. She was so kind and flexible to to have Winter stay one more night with her. Thank you so much Lauren Koda and Noah. ❤️
Remy was so happy to stay when Dana and her Pugs. She had such a great time playing with the other dogs. When I picked her up, she was extremely excited and was well taken care of. Dana is an absolute joy. She sent pictures and updates every day while I was away. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not have to worry about my baby. We will definitely book Dana again.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
