About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.
“Leandrea did a superb job with my kitty Sunny! I was anxious about leaving him due to him just having surgery a couple of days prior, but I was immediately put at ease with her quality of care! I would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking for all my pet needs in the future! Thank you for being so wonderful!”
About: I have had dogs of my own since I was 9 years old. I LOVE dogs--especially small ones! I have trained all of my dogs. I board friends' dogs in my home all the time, and am now excited to move into boarding strangers' dogs here on Rover! I work full-time, a mix of in-office and at home. I work from home on Thursdays and have flexibility on Fridays, so it works best for me to be able to provide boarding on long weekends (Thursday-Sunday). I am happy to provide your pet with seamless care and match what they are used to in your home. I have a large yard and a quiet neighborhood. My home has many rooms and I have some gates so that I can separate pets if needed. I also have a puppy play pen for smaller/younger pups who need their own space.
“Have a 5 month old puppy and needed some to watch her last min. Thank goodness I found Vanessa…..she was so great and flexible and did a fantastic job with my little one. Would use her again in the future.”
“Kristine was awesome with my cat Winnie. She can get scared with new faces but Kristine was kind and gentle with her. 10/10 would book with her again!”
About: What sets me apart is my hands on experience as a dog foster, which has given me the ability to care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to new routines quickly and helping pets feel safe and settled in a new environment. I provide calm, attentive, in home care where pets are treated like family. I focus on keeping their routine consistent, whether that includes feeding schedules, potty breaks, crate time, or extra play and attention. I’ve cared for both high energy dogs who need structure and exercise, as well as more anxious or relaxed dogs who need a calm, comforting space. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, loved, and at home while their owners are away and to keep owners updated so they can feel at ease. My schedule is flexible, I work part time and I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day. I’m typically home most of the day, so pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. I can adjust my daily routine around the pets in my care and make sure their needs are met on a regular schedule. I provide care in a calm, clean, and pet friendly home where safety and comfort are the top priority. Pets are supervised throughout the day and are never left unattended for long periods. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any specific instructions from the owner. I introduce pets slowly into my home to help them feel comfortable and settled. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and all outdoor breaks are always supervised. Inside, pets have a cozy, relaxed environment where they can rest and feel at home. Pets are welcome on furniture if that is allowed by their owner, so they can stay as comfortable as they are in their own home. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, especially during the adjustment period. My goal is to create a safe, low stress, loving environment, and I provide regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing.
About: Hi, my name is Missy I've had a great deal of experience with all different kinds of animals. I worked with a local vet helping place feral cats in homes and providing excellent care for them. Including helping pregnant feral cats with delivery and maternal care. I have volunteered at the Wisconsin Humane Society. There I worked in the Wildlife rehabilitation center as well as the dog care center. I currently own dogs and cats of my own and I recognize how important it is to provide excellent care as well as exercise and playtime. I have past experience in boarding and dog sitting in my home which has always been a great experience. Can't wait to give the love and care your dog(s) deserve!
“Erica was very thorough and did a wonderful job taking care of Cooper at lunchtime. You can definitely tell she cares about dogs. We would recommend her and use her again to care for our pup.”
About: I recently lost both of my dogs and while I'm not ready for a new dog, I'd love to take care of yours. I'm very active and love taking walks. I cared for my own very senior dog for several years. I work 10-6 Monday through Friday. I can walk morning and evenings and if required I'm close to my job to stop home mid day. I have a fairly large back yard with a tie up but will more likely take the dog for walks. I live in a safe neighborhood by myself and I have no other pets at this time.
“Hailey was great with my cat Snow. I felt so confident that he was getting all the love and attention he needed while I was out of town. I got great updates and lots of pictures each day. She’ll definitely be my go-to in the future!”
“Jordanne was excellent! This was our first time using Rover and we were a bit nervous since the dogs were only used to our family. We found there was no need for worry because Jordanne was great! She sent photos and gave lots of updates which put us at ease. The dogs loved her. We'll be sure to hire her again!”
About: I have had a dog of my own for nine years and think I would be a great fit to take care of your animal. I know what to do in different situations with dogs and cats because I have babysat dogs and cats before. I have a lot of free time to properly take care of your animals. I am willing to spend more time and really make sure your satisfied with my visit. I spend time taking them for walks, grooming them, and just spending time with them. I love exercising my dog and making sure he gets treats for his good behavior.
About: I have three cats, including a senior cat with urinary health concerns, so I'm familiar with monitoring litter box habits, recognizing changes in routine, and providing extra care when needed. I also have experience managing a multi-cat household where one cat has behavioral challenges, which has taught me patience, observation, and how to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I'm familiar with administering pet medications and caring for animals with anxiety, including following medication schedules and maintaining calm, consistent routines to help them feel safe. I love dogs as well and enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds, whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply providing companionship. I treat every pet like family, follow routines closely, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they're away. I’m currently open to a wide range of availability, so I can prioritize pet care and be reliable for both regular and last-minute needs. I make sure every pet gets focused attention and care, just like I would for my own. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions carefully so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize sticking to their normal schedule for feeding, walks, medication, and playtime. I’m respectful of the home, keep things clean and organized, and make sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages for peace of mind.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals, but particularly dogs since I can remember! I’ve always had pets in my household and I love to play with and care for animals. I currently work at a doggy daycare. I work part time and I am a student at UWM, so I am a little busy, but my schedule is relatively flexible so I can definitely make time for your precious furbabies! I will be very respectful of your wishes and your home. I do have a dog of my own, she is a little timid around people but she loves dogs of all kinds and sizes! We can do a meet and greet to see if our furbabies would be friends, otherwise if you are not interested I would still be happy to care for your fur baby while you are away!!
About: I have a diverse experience of taking care of dogs. One of my previous jobs was working in a dog daycare/kennel where I took care of dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have been a dog walker and sitter for many years now, and have been around dogs my whole life! I currently own a mini poodle puppy! I am currently a full time student and can help walk your dog on weekends, holidays, and some odd days throughout the week. My schedule does change, so I can’t provide consistent care, but would love to help out when I can! I take dog walking very seriously, and make sure that the dog’s safety is prioritized. It make sure to be very observant of the dog’s surroundings and temperament, and will be ready to pivot whenever necessary. Communication is very important to me, so I am as prepared as possible for every situation.
About: I enjoy dogs company and am open to care for any dog. I know how important a pet can be to someone and I would want my pet to be in good hands. I will treat them as if it were my own. I will make sure they go for walks and are well fed. I will make them feel as comfortable as I can in my home. I am home most of the day so I have enough time to make sure they are well taken care of. I have the patience to take care of any dog or cat regardless of age of breed. I am trustworthy and reliable. I will also follow any directions given regarding to the care of your pet.

Sydney helps me by letting my 14 year old dog out while I’m working. He really likes her and I do, too! She is reliable, helpful, gives him treats, and makes it possible for me to work my full day without coming home to accidents. She just understands him and his limitations as a sweet old guy. 🐶🤎
I’ve had a great experience with Ana! My dogs liked her immediately during our meet and greet, and I could tell she knew her way around bigger dogs. Communication was super straightforward and fast - she even asked how often I want updates, which I really appreciate. Ramses was very relaxed when I came home after Ana’s visit. I’ll definitely be booking her again!
Lexi was a very dependable dog sitter while we were away for the weekend. She was kind and patient with my doggie who can be a little lazy, she checked in on time and sent details and photos in a timely fashion. I felt that my doggo, Mama Zoe, was very safe with Lexi. Thank you, Lexi!
Cindy had been wonderful! She asked questions about Vladimir’s schedule, behaviors, even where he likes to sleep. She pays close attention to directions and details and is an excellent communicator! I feel very comfortable leaving Vladimir in her care. I know he will be loved on, cared for, and is safe. Vladimir loved her immediately and we’re lucky to have found her!
Cosmo was in really great shape. Emily gave lots of feedback, and really eased my concerns. Cosmo had Diarrhea when she started taking care of him, but Emily was very good at taking care of him, and he was fine when we got home. She was great at giving me updates.
Liz is so sweet & follows directions very well! Our two boys absolutely love her as she goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of while we are out of town. I was so happy Liz was available to watch them as she knows their routine and always willing to help more if needed. Cannot recommend enough!
Carolyn did a wonderful job taking care of my puppy this week. She was always communicative.and sent updates. I can tell Josie really enjoys the attention and would recommend Caolyn to anyone looking for a pet sitter. We look forward to having her continue to come watch Josie.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
