“Ty was great with Theo. We met twice prior to boarding and Ty knew exactly how to introduce himself and his dogs to Theo. While Theo was staying with him, he communicated daily with texts, videos and pictures. Theo showed no signs of stress when I picked him up. I highly recommend Ty!”
“Jamie was amazing went above and beyond for our Pug whose allergies were acting up and gave her a bath. Jamie kept us updated and informed and sent lots of pictures to make us feel at ease. Highly recommend and definitely will use her services again!”
“We felt very comfortable leaving both our dogs with Julie. She is a great communicator, considerate, and understanding of some family circumstances that unexpectedly came up. We will definitely use Julie again when we return to La Crosse. It's always a great feeling knowing our fur kids are safe, sound, and well cared for. Thanks so much, Julei!”
“Jasmine is an outstanding Rover for our dog - she is communicative, sends lots of photos, and has always been flexible with our schedule. I know that when we leave our dog with her, he’s going to be in great hands!”
“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”
“Jared was very helpful and accommodating. Princess was well taken care of and had a lot of cuddles from everyone in the family. I will contact again next time I need a sitter for Princess!”
“Jenny is the best dog watcher ever!!! She’s always my first choice on Rover. I can count on her to send me regular updates about my beloved doggy, along with photos (cute and silly alike). She’s trustworthy, reliable, and very experienced with dog watching. I’d recommend her every time!”
“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”
About: Love all fur babies. Have been taken care of all sorts of critters since I was little. Love all shapes and sizes. Excited to start babysitting. I worksl from home full time and we are home most days. Walks and plenty of play time in our back yard would hapen all day. We have a nice big fenced in back yard and theee dogs and two cats that love to play. We love playing fetch and have lots of toys.
“Janelle and Chris were incredible to our two dogs. We have a red healer/aussie mix young dog with a lot of energy that we get nervous to leave behind. But Janelle and Chris made us feel at ease with their experience with caring for dogs and their daily updates on how our dogs were doing. We will definitely be using them in the future! Highly recommend!”
“This was Emmett's second stay with Ty but his first overnight and that was a big leap for me, as I rarely leave Emmett with anyone! But it went SO well! Ty's excellent communication -- prompt responses to my questions, regular pics and videos of all the fun Emmett was having -- made all the difference and helped assuage any nervousness / separation anxiety *I* was having (harder for me than Emmett, I'm sure sure :)))). Emmett LOVED his time with Ty and I'm so grateful and relieved to have this solid, trustworthy backup support when I need it. Highly recommend Ty! We'll be back in a couple weeks! :))))”
“Monica was so great with our dog Finn while we were away for a weekend. She was super responsive and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her!”
“Wendy and Dean made Duncan’s first nights away from home relaxing for us and a blast for him. They loved him like they love their own dogs, and sent pictures throughout his stay which gave us piece of mind. His stay with them was filled with long walks and loads of playtime with their sweet pups. They are our #1 choice when it comes to boarding.”
“Rebekah was great! Lots of playtime and walks. Blaze had a great time. Also appreciated photos and updates. I felt very comfortable leaving her even though it was her first time there. Woukd definitely go back again. Thanks so much!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Salem
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with having Karlie look after our two dogs. It was great that she was able to send updates and photos periodically, so we never had to worry about them on our trip! We totally would recommend her for boarding and daycare. Will totally have our pups visit their second home when we go on our next trip!

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Salem 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 Salem.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Salem 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.
