“Mallory did a great job checking in on our cat Marvin while we were away on vacation. She provided great updates with photos every visit, and was very professional & communicative overall. Thank you Mallory!”
“Maiah was great! Very easy to communicate with and took great care of our cat. Our cat can be very shy and hide around strangers but she came right out for Maiah and obviously liked her!”
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.
“Carolyn was easy to communicate with and was incredibly accommodating when I made a scheduling error. She took great care of my cat and kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me great peace of mind. Thank you!!”
“Sydney is great! She was able to check in on my two pups multiple times. Sydney always leaves a detailed report and makes sure we get pics of the pups during her visits. We highly recommend her!”
About: While I don't own a pet I lived with pets almost my whole life until buying a home for myself. While I wait until the right pet comes along in my life I'll happily care for yours! Living near the Hank Aaron Trail allows plenty of time for walks or runs around the neighborhood. If your pet isn't a fan of long walks or runs that's okay, too! Couch time is always something to look forward to with a friendly dog as well. Happy to follow any and all rules owners have while going the extra mile to make sure your pet feels cared for every day I take care of them. Look no further for someone to dedicate their time for your pet than my home. I work full time in the Milwaukee area but am usually not gone for longer than 8.5 or 9 hours at a time. I make time right away in the morning and immediately after work to care for any of the pets that I am watching. If your pet is active I'll happily take it out for runs around the trail or make time to play with it either in my yard or at the park near me. I will happily take the time to play with your pet outside or just let it roam around and do its business if that is what your pet prefers. There aren't many dogs in the area that are out and about to worry about. I don't have a pet of my own that you need to worry about your pet being comfortable with, either. I work full time Monday to Friday and am gone for 8.5-9 hours at most. I make time in the mornings and after work to take dogs out for walks and regular exercises as needed. My schedule typically revolves around the dog I’m watching. While sitting dogs I make them my priority and try to give them as much attention as they desire or you would at your home. There are parks and open fields nearby to play in and plenty of sidewalks to roam and get a leisurely walk in.
“Sarah did it again! We have a whole herd at our house between resident and foster dogs and she gave great care to everyone. We just feel so much better having her stop by when we are gone for a long day.”
“Julia is great with Lenny!! She's able to drop in as needed and is very flexible with her schedule. We get photos and updates after each visit which is always nice 😊😊 will definitely keep booking and would highly recommend!”
“We are so glad Kristine was available on Christmas Day to check on our cat. She came a few days prior on late notice for a meet and greet and provided a nice update!”
“Emily is a great sitter for my dog Scout! We've been working together for about a year, and she's able to handle senior/disabled dog issues, including lifting/carrying paralyzed dog & dealing with potty issues that occur when Scout is alone.”
“Jess was amazing!!! This was our first time using Rover and Jess made it such a pleasant experience. She was great with communication, she made sure to send us detailed notes and lots of pictures so we were at ease while on our family vacation. Our dog Buster loved her!! Would definitely recommend Jess to everyone! ☺️”
About: Throughout my life, I’ve had the privilege of living with and taking care of dogs of all sizes. I enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it’s walking, playing, or simply being by their side. I work remotely in digital marketing, which gives me the flexibility to care for your dog! 🐕 I work remotely, Monday-Friday. Working from home allows me to work flexibly from any location (with WIFI), while giving me time to care for your dog. If I have connection to WIFI, I can easily work from your home while caring for your dog. My schedule also allows me to come stop by to walk and care for your dog.
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and have spent the last four years taking care of dogs at a doggy daycare where I became an assistant manager! I've become skilled in positive reward based training, applying/giving medication, and reading animal body language. I am very willing to be as flexible and communicative within the restraints of my current job. So my availability changes around quite a bit, feel free to reach out to me regardless of what my calendar availability says so we can see if we can work it out!🐾💛 I have lived in a household of three playful pups, and separately lived in a house of five cats. I understand the maintenance and hard work that may be required to properly care for house pets-they are family!💛
About: I have had a dog of my own for 6 years and over the years have cared for neighbors, family friends, and other family members pets! I am a nurse so I have a natural caring way about myself that extends to pets when I get to care for them! I work typically 3 12 hour shifts a week leaving the rest of my week open to care for your beautiful pets! I am required to work every third weekend of the month, but other than that my weekends are typically open! I am unable to care for pets in my current apartment as my landlord does not allow pets. However when caring for your pets in your home I will give you, your space, and your pets my utmost respect and courtesy. I firmly believe in leaving a space the exact way I found it and leaving your pets happier than how I found them!!
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!
About: I am an enthusiastic person looking for some time with your furry best friend! Animals, especially dogs, have always been a passion of mine.

I have been a devout animal lover since I have been a child, and my love for animals has grown over the years.

I can easily follow your rules when I come to your house to walk your dog. I can also feed and take care of any other needs your dog may need.
“Justine took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She gave her her medication and played with her a lot! I have no doubts that my cat Effie had a wonderful time with her.”
About: What started out as babysitting quickly turned to dog and cat sitting as parents and friends saw the love that I have for children and animals. 🐾 My part-time schedule will allow me to have plenty of flexibility for our furry friends as part of my day. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some extra playtime and cuddles, I’m happy to include their care into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and am available for pet care Tuesday through Sunday, with a standing commitment on Tuesday mornings/early afternoons (10 a.m.–1 p.m.) and church on Sunday mornings (9:30-12). I’m dependable, flexible, and genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their people are away! Because I live in a duplex with my own dog, I prefer to go to clients homes and care for pets where they feel most comfortable and at home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Allis
Stephany was a lifesaver during my six-week trip abroad. She walked Cloud every morning, played with him, and kept in touch beyond the app updates with texts and videos, so I always knew how he was doing. When a cyst between his toes flared up, she carefully followed my care instructions, took him to the vet when it didn't improve, and managed his medication exactly as prescribed. Reliable, caring, and a fantastic communicator. Highly recommend!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
