“I just got a new puppy recently and realized he liked to bark. I have an apartment so the two don’t go together. I contacted Lorelei and she got back to me right away as I was in a panic the night before work. She was able to help watch Beau while I worked long hours. I got tons of videos and pictures reassuring me throughout the day. Beau came home tired and worn out from playing with the other dogs. Lorelei took into consideration he was a puppy and took him on lots of potty breaks and blocked off the stairs so he wouldn’t fall, since he was still new to those. I would recommend her 1000 times over. We are so appreciative of your time and everything you helped Beau learn as well! We will definitely be returning in the future.”

“Drew is incredible. Our 11 month old Bernese absolutely loves spending his days with Drew. We recently had a baby and need some extra hands/love/attention for puppy. He is patient (must be to put up with our Lenny some days) and super easy to work with. We are so grateful to have found Drew, and Lenny is too!”

“Emily made us feel extremely safe leaving our pup, Tyke, with her! She had a basket full of toys ready to show him & her home felt so cozy & welcoming. I could tell our pup felt safe with her right away & wasn’t stressed during drop off or pick up Thank you, Emily!”

“Our 2 year old Norfolk Terrier Finn recently spent the day with Robert and had a fabulous time! Lots of walks for Finn and pictures sent to us during the day. I had great piece of mind knowing that Finn was well cared for by Robert, who is great with dogs (as well as people too)! I would have Finn stay with Robert again for sure!”


“Kind and professional, very easy to work with and quick to respond. I needed somewhere for my girl to go where she could be around other dogs while I was swamped for the day, within 1 hour I had a daycare appointment set up with Brad. He sent me pictures of her smiling and cuddling while she was there. Will definitely be going back.”

“Manu is great with our dog, she takes her on walks by the water and plays with her. My dog gets SO excited when we pull up to Manu’s house because she knows she’s about to have a fun day!”

“Yecid was very attentive to my dog's care. He followed Max's feeding instructions and kept me informed and sent me photos throughout the day. I truly recommend this sitter. Thank you for your services, which I will use in the future.”

“Wolfy had such a great day with Mary and her family. He can back very happy, and Mary sent several lovely photos of his time. Mary was also flexible with me when my plans changed after booking, which was so appreciated.”

“Julie let me know a new dog would be present at the same time as my dog, and she made sure to attempt to make introduce successful with a 3rd dog. She let me know she was able to keep dogs in separate areas as needed, let dogs have space from each other, and make sure my pup was safe and comfortable.”

About: In my household we used to have a lot of dogs but had to give them up due to moving, but I love dogs and I know how to take care of them for sure :)) I’ll have plenty of time to play and walk with your dogs! I am available 24/7 Monday-Sunday at any time. Morning, afternoon and evenings as well I’m willing to come to your home and take care of your dogs/cats or dog/cat and give them all the attention, I also have a home of my own and don’t mind having animals here to stay :))
About: Worked at Cherokee Kennels, in Fitchburg for 3 years, learned many new things about many different breeds of dogs. Love long walks, and giving the best love to pets! I currently work a full-time job, but am looking to add something fun on the side. I am gone about 10 hours daily for work, otherwise I am outside enjoying nature and going on walks and runs. Starting the second week in November I will be laid off my job for the winter, so I will be able to care for your pet & their needs 24/7. I am open to sticking to your pets daily schedule as best as I can. Giving them the best love and care they deserve to have.
“We are very grateful to Tracy. She took care of our adolescent dog with his first experience with daycare. We had a sudden family emergency that required someone to look after our pub. She was open and communicative which was very helpful. Would recommend to others.”


About: I love dogs and animals - they really are the best! I have owned three for many years, raising two from being puppies, and addressing challenging behavior with an older doggo, in addition to fostering multiple rescue dogs. I recently moved to WI, and my pets stayed home with my partner for now, and miss my furry companions and want to provide love and care for yours while I’m here! I am happy to work with you on what’s best, whether that is house sitting, boarding, or simply letting your animals out on walks or to go potty. Let’s chat! I currently work from home and have a remote job, so can provide your dog with any needs or attention that makes sense based on their schedule. I have some in-person meetings that occur throughout the week, and am generally around on the weekends regularly. If planning on boarding or daycare, my apartment is very dog-friendly, with many residents having pets and there are plenty of amenities available, whether walking around the neighborhood on leash or playing in the apartment’s fenced in dog run, that will give your pet what it needs. I can easily crate, take out for potty breaks, etc. I am also mindful of dog reactivity regardless of my own or neighbor’s dogs.
About: Cat and dog lover! I’ve owned and cared for cats and dogs for over 20 years! I love the outdoors and having a dog to explore it with. Walking is fun, but playing fetch in the backyard can be just as exciting! Belly rubs and treats (if mom or dad says so) are next in line for some of my favorite things to do. Sometimes spending time with animals can be more entertaining than other humans! Although fun and exercise are important, the safety and well-being of your pet is always my number one priority. I’m not looking to make this a full-time job, just looking to pet all the dogs. If you think I would be a good fit for your fur baby, send me a message! I’m currently very flexible with my schedule. I work Monday through Friday 9am to 4pm with a very understanding boss so I’m more than available to leave for a bathroom break at lunchtime. My girlfriend also works from home during the week and is able to help care for your pet, making sure they get plenty of walks, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. I have a fenced area and dog friendly apartment. Have plenty of space for a crate if needed. Love long walks and am located right near the lake loop!
Waunona dog parents share their Rover experiences
Manu is a wonderful and caring animal whisperer. We needed someone to watch our sweet lab mix, Benny, with little notice so we had to forgo a meet and greet but no doubts whatsoever based on her profile. Manu was very responsive and extremely tentative to Benny who is recovering from Giardia. She sent many photos and sealed the visit off with a very cute holiday video of Benny's stay. Benny came home with a new bandana and a new BFF. She is a warm, kind person that quickly became a #1 pick for us to book again. 12/10

Jackie is a great sitter! She is very communicative, and I appreciated that she introduced Cleo to her dogs one at a time, and in an intentional way (in the yard first). She's clearly knowledgeable about dog behavior and best practices. We'll definitely use her again!
