“Ky did great with Storm! I definitely wish we got detail of how Storm did on walks and if she was doing well without us, but everyone has their own wants/needs with Rover!”

About: I have had a dog in my life since I was in the third grade. I now have 4 dogs of my own and foster for a local rescue, which means I have taken care of dogs of all ages I currently work Monday - Friday until 3:30 PM and am available after that. Weekends are usually free for anytime care as my job does not require me to work weekends. I do not have a fenced in yard but we do have a portion of the property that is far from the road and boxed in by trees. My dogs are friendly and love to run around and play.
“Michelle has been excellent ! We are so fortunate our Mabel had such awesome care and attention . We felt very comfortable having Michelle in our home and spending time with our best girl ! I highly recommend Michelle to anyone who loves their pet(s) and wants the security of knowing they are loved and cared for 1,000% of the time . I was nervous to use Rover as I am first time user . Michelle made it so easy and comfortable .”


“Kailey was amazing taking care of my cat while I was away. She sent detailed notes and pictures throughout the time and I felt completely confident my cat was being taken good care of. Highly recommend”

“I’d leave Cayla 10 stars if I could. She took exceptional care of our anxious shepherd. She was very thoughtful of his nervousness and made him feel at ease. She had excellent communication as well, I didn’t worry at all about our boy.”

About: Hello! I study Vet Science at UW Madison and have extensive experience in both dog and cat humane societies, kennels, and have had dogs my whole life and cats for 3 years now. My dogs Jojo and Jagger are very energetic, and Indy is my tortie and the love of my life :) I tend to work weekends at my families business but can change my availability based on how familiar I get with your pet(s). I am always available to talk and will respond quickly to messages! I love to engage with pets and learn their body language, I will always have a ball or stick while walking your dog, but also understand when they need a break. My priority is making them feel as at home as possible, while earning experience in the field I love. I have patience for both cats and dogs, and will watch carefully to not over pet, play, or initiate with shy animals. Tell me more about your pet to help me help them be as comfortable as they can be!
“Rianna is so sweet with my pups. While they are very low maintenance, she goes out of her way to be super sweet and patient with them. 2 big thumbs up and I will continue to book her for my daily dog needs.”

About: Hello! My name is Elena, and I specialize in caring for dogs of all backgrounds—including rescues, seniors, and pets with unique needs. As the owner of three rescue dogs myself, I understand that every pup has their own personality, history, and comfort level. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with: Recognizing stress, fear, and anxiety cues Supporting dogs with behavioral quirks or anxieties Providing consistent routines, medication if needed, and patient care When I care for your pet, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can expect timely communication, photo updates, and a sitter who truly respects the bond you share with your furry family member. Your pets will be cared for as if they were my own—because I know how much trust it takes to leave them with someone new. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, allowing me to provide consistent and reliable care for your furry friend. As a nursing student, I have honed my skills in time management, responsibility, and compassionate care, which seamlessly translate into my pet care services. Ensuring the safety, trust, and well-being of pets is paramount. In my home, I maintain a pet-proofed environment with secure locks and designated safe zones, ensuring cleanliness and comfort with regular cleaning and a consistent schedule of feeding, walks, and enrichment activities. Health monitoring is a priority, with regular checks for signs of illness and immediate veterinary attention if needed.
About: (I go by Dakota, so some testimonies might call me that) I started off pet sitting for neighbors when I was about 14. I would feed, let out, and walk the dogs, and feed and clean cat litter boxes as needed. I moved up to dog sitting for family friends, old coworkers, and coworkers’ clients about three years ago, where I would do the same, and even bathe dogs if needed. I have experience pet sitting rodents and reptiles as well! I am currently not working a job, so I have all the time to give your babies the love and attention they need and deserve! I have experience with body language in dogs, so I can always tell when your baby is happy, upset, or uncomfortable. If you don’t have a fenced in yard, no problem! I can take your fur baby on a secure leash outside!
“Thank you Shawn! You were easy to work with and I felt Sonny would be very well cared for, I was very happy to find someone close by who was good with large dogs. I would definitely book with Shawn again :)”

About: I started dog sitting my freshmen year of high school and quickly grew my business as people heard about my service. I am dedicated to making both you and your pet feel comfortable while separated. I am currently a full-time college student, so my hours are strict. I am free most weekends and will be available for drop-ins during the weekdays and can spend the night if needed. I will stick to the routine your pet knows best and ensure they are given plenty of love and attention while you are away. I strive to go above and beyond so that you come home to a happy pet!
“I wasn't sure what to expect from my two.. but everything was great! I love the pics and the "bathroom" updates. Joe is great with the "big one..Seamus" and the "little one" warmed up after she realized Joe had food...lol!”

About: My uncle bred certified schnauzers and I was always willing to lend a hand where needed. I also grew up around other breeds such as German Shepard, beagles, Shitzus, Great Pyrenees and many others. So I am fine with any size dog. I am off almost every weekend and have a lot of time on my hands during the day. I do this because currently I can’t have a dog so I plan on treating yours as my own. I will respect your home as if it’s my own. Shoot need a little clean up I will sure be down to do a little cleaning.
About: I have always loved animals, they're my only real passion in life. I enjoyed walking, watching, and playing with neighborhood dogs as a kid. I currently have 1 crazy dog and I love him to death. My favorite thing to do is spend time and go on adventures with him. I have recently watched a couple of my friends dogs and enjoyed taking them on adventures too. Every dog is unique and it's fun learning their personalities as they grow more comfortable with me. I currently work weekends, but have plenty of time on week days to care for fur babies. Third shifters welcome! I'm available noon to midnight. Safety is my number one priority. Let me know if your baby has any quirks or health issues so I can adjust to their needs.
About: I have had all kinds of dogs & a cat since I was a kid; Schnauzers, Beagles, Pittie mixes, and a Chihuahua. My girlfriend & I currently have a 10 year old pitty named Cannoli, a son to be 2 year old pitty- Great Pyrenees named Carl and 2 12 year old chihuahuas named Tyson and Felix. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets while they are away. I am currently available during the week Monday-Friday 10am-10pm (and some weekends), so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for walks or drop ins. Would love to regularly walk or drop in with your furry friends weekly or a few times a week! Active pet sitter near parks & walking trails. I enjoy taking pups on long walks or runs outdoors, or even just providing some company in the house while your are away.

About: I have been a dog lover my whole life! Dogs have been apart of my family since I was kid. We have loved a wide variety of breeds from small dogs to large dogs. I also have experience as a dog walking volunteer at the Racine County Humane society! Through this position and my home life I have walked dogs from 5-100+lbs. My family calls me the dog whisperer and I've always felt so at peace walking or spending time with pups! I am a recent grad with my Masters in Physician Assistant Studies. I work as an Emergency Medicine PA offering me flexibility with my schedule. I would love to help care for your pets in my off time. Animals bring me so much joy and I will treat your pet as one of my own! I am able to work with pets of high energy as well as more docile pups! I am comfortable using crates as well as kennels.

“My somewhat shy and very skittish pups. Emmi and Avrie, loved Megan from the first moment they met her! She took great care of them while I was away and even gave one a bath after a "fecal incident", including snuggle time after so my pup was warm and calm before Megan left. She even put my personal bedding in to wash so I didn't have to come home to a mess!!! I will definitely be using her again :D”
