“Laura did a great job with my pup again! I know that he is well cared for and safe when she is taking care of him. He always has a great time with her dog Diesel and goes on nice walks. I love how he always comes back to me good and tired! I highly recommend Laura and I will definitely be using her again!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”
“Ashlee took great care of my 1-year old pup. He had fun playing with her dogs, and she was willing to take him at the last minute. She is very friendly and responsive.”
“Scott was very accommodating and communicative, we got several pictures and even a short video of our dog out playing in the fresh snow. Our dog has a fear of smooth floors and Scott was able to layout enough rugs and beds that Barley was comfortable. Will book again.”
“Zachary was very helpful with our dog Otis. He was responsive and asked questions when needed. We felt Otis was in great hands with Zachary. Will use him again!”
“Buddy receives fantastic care when he is at Holly and Daniel's home. This is our 8th or 10th reservation and each time we return we know Buddy has been well taken care of.”
“Our experience with Marylinn was the absolute best dog sitting we've had. She shared pictures and updates and showed so much love to our little guy. I can't stress enough how happy we are with her care. The plan is to have her as a go to sitter as much as her schedule allows. I almost don't want go share her! ?❤️❤️❤️”
“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!”
“Mitchell is an amazing choice for care for your furry friend! Took amazing photos of my pup and sent me daily updates! Was very communicative and flexible with pick up and drop off times as well. Would book Mitchell again!”
“She is absolutely the best sitter I’ve used. Her children and her dogs were perfect for Zoe. She has a large fenced yard giving Zoe lots of room to play. I think Zoe thinks I’m totally boring now. LOL I’m so grateful Rebecca sent me updates and pictures. She’s the best!”
“Julia and Colin were great! They communicated well and even met Toast before boarding! We received a lot of pictures where our dog was smiling and having a good time with them. We will definitely book again!”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing with Chase and Coco! She kept me updated the entire time with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were well cared for, happy, and loved while I was away. I had no issues or problems at all. I truly appreciate the excellent care she provided, and I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“I had the pleasure of having Nikki and her lovely family watch our dog, Kota, who has a history of seizures and requires a little extra care. She did a truly wonderful job. Throughout Kota’s stay, she sent frequent pictures and updates, which helped ease our minds and kept us informed. Her attentiveness, kindness, and clear communication were greatly appreciated. Kota was in excellent hands, and it was clear she treated her like one of her own. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable, compassionate care for their pet—especially if they have special medical needs.”
“Thank you, Mary and family, for letting Bud stay with you! The pictures of him with all the visiting pups were great to see! Lots of familiar friends and lots of love from you and your family. Bud and I love all of you and appreciate how awesome you are to us! Just like an extended family.”
About: Hi there! We are recently new residents to Milwaukee and the Lower East Side and we would love to make some new friends in the neighborhood! We have gained a lot of experience caring for a variety of different pets in Chicago for over a year on Rover before our move. Personally, both of our families owned dogs & cats throughout each of our childhoods which has given us a natural experience with pets as well. We look forward to the opportunity to meet your beloved dogs & cats! BOARDING CLIENTS: We have recently opened our services for boarding dogs in our apartment! I work remotely 5 days a week at home so your dog will have no shortage of attention and care! We are deeply considering getting our own dog soon, so we’re treating every boarding guest like our test run! Your pup will get all the love, structure, and attention we’re practicing for our future family member—plenty of walks, play, cuddles, and a calm apartment to call home while you’re away! Please ask us any questions you may have! Andrew works fully remote 5 days a week and the nature of my job is very flexible so I am able to step out if needed/when requested. Taylor is fully in office but may occasionally be available. Additionally, we’re particularly looking to use some of our free time we have on the weekends to care for some pets together! We want to earn your trust that your animals are safe with us, and respect your home & privacy in doing so. Kindly communicate your preferences and your pet’s needs so we can make sure we’re doing everything we can to facilitate a comfortable experience for you and your pet from start to finish!

As we pulled up to Zach’s house, my pup knew exactly where we were, got all excited, and couldn’t get to the front door fast enough. Off to a good start! Zachary is very good at communicating how the pup is doing, sending photos each day, and following the pup’s personal instructions. I really like that he does only one family’s pets at a time. I also had an unexpected hiccup to my plans and Zachary handled it well. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Zach!
Stephan was absolutely incredible! His communication was great, he gave us updates, and Finn seemed to have a wonderful time. We absolutely recommend Stephan and his services to any and every pet owner. We will certainly be using his amazing services again. Thanks again, Stephan!
A wonderful dog sitter! Marilynn is truly a dog whisperer! She was so loving and caring with Lenny, and he absolutely loved his time at her house. Her fenced-in backyard gave him plenty of room to run and play, and I loved knowing he was getting lots of attention and care. I was able to relax and enjoy my time away because I knew Lenny was in such good hands. I highly recommend Marilynn to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family!
I was extremely pleased with Stephany! She took wonderful care of fancy and Sophie why me and my daughter was away for the weekend. She stayed in touch with me throughout the weekend and sent me pictures which gave me so much peace of mind, knowing they were happy and being well cared for I really appreciate it how attentive dependable and caring she was with them. I will absolutely trust Stephanie with my girls again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with love and care thank you so much, Stephany ❤️ 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in West Milwaukee on Rover is $35.31 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 844 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Milwaukee. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
85% of West Milwaukee sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which West Milwaukee landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Milwaukee home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your West Milwaukee.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your West Milwaukee sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
