“Sarah was amazing!! She checked in on our cat while we were gone and our cat absolutely adored her. Sarah provided tons of photos and updates so it really put us at ease that our cat was getting some love while we were gone. Thank you Sarah!!”

My focus is on creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every pet I care for. I’ve worked with a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments, so I’m adaptable to your pet’s unique needs.

About: Having an energetic 7-year-old Australian Shepherd like my dog Roman means staying active is just a daily way of life for me. I know firsthand what it takes to give high-energy dogs the exercise, attention, and mental engagement they need to thrive. I also have deep experience with cats, including senior and specialized care, I recently lost my beloved 17-year-old diabetic cat, so I’m very comfortable with gentle handling and strict routines. Plus, I have a big soft spot for birds! As a pet parent, I completely understand the peace of mind that comes with finding someone reliable, trusting, and flexible to look after your animals. Whether your dog needs a fast-paced walk to burn off steam, your cat needs special care/cuddles, or your bird needs an attentive check-in, I care for every pet as thoughtfully as I do my own. I’m based in the Wauwatosa and Milwaukee area and am available most afternoons after 1:30 PM, evenings, and weekends. I’d love to connect, hear about your pet’s routine, and see how I can help make your schedule easier! As a fitness coach, my schedule gives me great daily flexibility. I'm available most weekdays after 1:30 PM, as well as on weekends. Living in the Midwest, weather never stops me. I get outside and active no matter what! I can take your dog on a solo walk, bring my dog Roman along if yours wants a buddy, or simply drop in for quiet time and plenty of pets. Pet care naturally fits right into my daily routine. When caring for pets in your home, my primary focus is maintaining their familiar routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own space. I respect your home, stay in close communication with regular updates and photos, and ensure your pet receives plenty of quality attention, affection, and playtime while you’re away.
“Cathy took care of our two cats over the holiday, and she was very communicative, reliable, and just generally kind! She went above and beyond to care for our cats by walking to our house when the roads were too icy after the Christmas storm. We really appreciated it and would definitely trust her again for the care for our cats.”
About: I am an experienced cat cuddler and cat mom who has strong caregiving skills from routine feedings and litter box scooping to giving elderly cats medications and subcutaneous fluids. I also enjoy simple feedings and light walks with dogs. I am returning to graduate school in the fall, and am looking to supplement my income. I will have quite a bit of flexibility, particularly in mornings and evenings for pet care. I am looking forward to pet care breaks from my studies. In your home, I will remember it is your pet's place. I will respect that. I will offer treats, food, water, change cats litter boxes, play with wand toys, and whatever else your pet enjoys. I will build a relationship with your pet.
“Evita was great with my kitten. She kept her safe and entertained and loved cuddeling with her. She sent me updates and pictures. I was very comfortable knowing my pet was not only being cared for but also having a good time. I would definately use her again and recommend her”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, even dogs that can be leash, collar, and dog aggressive when walking. I am mostly available later in the week and weekends due to being a full time student, but have breaks in between my school days! There is a green area for dogs down the street from me and a quick 15 minute walk towards the lake for more walking paths!
“Lyly is so great with our herd. She knows their personalities and quirks and shares great updates for them. It's nice to come home to pets that aren't stressed our or starved for attention. ♥️”
“I booked Sarah for a last minute booking due to a family emergency, and she responded almost immediately! She was very tentative, asked questions, and was so sweet to my little girl! She went above and beyond to help my baby feel comfortable and come out of her shell.”
About: From week long in-home stays to quick 15 minute walks, I have done it all! I started occasional dog walking in 8th grade and i’ve continued pet care for 9 years. I have experience with high energy and large dogs like Belgian Malinois to lower energy senior dogs that just need companionship. I can truly cater to each dog and what they need. I grew up with dogs and currently have two, a rottweiler and a lab. I currently work two jobs but they are usually pretty spread out time wise. I work in the morning from 7:30 to 2:00pm and two nights a week from 7:00pm to 12:00 am. I have weekends free so plenty of time for visiting! I will not be able to offer any in home care as I have two dogs at home that do not enjoy the company of others.
“Kim gave my husband and I peace of mind while we were on vacation since we knew our kitties would be in good hands. Kim is professional, respectful, and truly cares for pets. She provided check in updates and pictures that I ended up really looking forward to reading! I will definitely be rebooking with her again!”
“It is such a relief to be able to enjoy a vacation knowing your pets are well cared for. Abigail is professional, reliable and a great communicator. We are grateful to have found Abigail!”
About: Hi! I'm excited to have the chance to meet your pup(s)! I have personal and professional petcare experience. I have been lucky enough to have had dogs my whole life. I also recently spent 2 years as a professional dogwalker with Wag. I've cared and walked dogs of all kinds, older, younger, pullers, take-their-timers, and can't wait until someone wants me to take their dog for a run! :) I love puppies and helping to train, youtube certified. I have also volunteered at the Humane Society walking dogs there! For boarding, I do have a cat, but can easily separate the areas in my apartment to accommodate. I work full-time 830-5. I have a camera in my place in case of an emergency and work close enough and have amazing flexibility to make adjustments to my schedule. Safety is always the priority. Harness is preferred, but a secure collar/leash is a must. I also tend to avoid other dogs/people at all times to ensure a calm and easygoing visit. I'm very accessible by phone and follow instructions to the dot. I live steps away from the Oak Leaf Trail, so expect lovely and peaceful walks if boarding.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Milwaukee
I booked Sarah for a last minute booking due to a family emergency, and she responded almost immediately! She was very tentative, asked questions, and was so sweet to my little girl! She went above and beyond to help my baby feel comfortable and come out of her shell.
Mary was great while I was out of state. I have 1 finicky cat and 1 territorial and aggressive cat. She was patient and attentive to both and I felt (and saw) that they were in great hands. Communication was awesome! Instructions were followed 100%. I would definitely rebook.
Vanessa was AMAZING to have to watch my cat Dexter, while I was out of the country for 2 weeks. He tends to not come out for people he doesn’t know and he came out the very first day and everyday after that, which is a huge things for him. Getting the daily food, water, bowel updates with photos of him made me feel a lot more at ease with leaving him. I highly recommend her for anyone’s pet needs, I will be using her again in the future!
Jill was extremely kind and professional. My cat is honestly pretty rude to sitters. Jill was great at noticing her body language, giving my cat her space, and even finding her when she managed to get into an unusual hiding space. She's a great and reliable caregiver for your pets!
Caitlyn is an amazing cat sitter! I hired her while I was away for a work trip and she dropped in multiple times a day and medicated one of my cats (who gets several meds throughout the day). On top of that, her updates were phenomenal! She gave me up descriptions of my cats activities that were very consistent with their personalities, so I could tell she was really paying attention to their moods and needs. One of the best cat sitters on here and I would easily hire her again! So flexible to work with, sends amazing photos, and responds quickly.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
