“Another awesome experience with Cory! He took great care of both my dog and cat and is extremely reliable (visited my pets during bad WI weather!) -- as always, I highly recommend.”


“Alyssa was great. She kept me updated with photos and videos, and it was clear my cat was comfortable and well looked after. I appreciated her thoughtful updates and attention to detail. I will definitely use her services again.”



“Kaylan was awesome to work with! She did a great job caring for our 2 Yorkies, and we were able to get away for a weekend event with complete peace of mind, knowing our dogs were in terrific hands. Responsive and reliable. A great experience!”


“Sandy was awesome with my husband being in the hospital. I did not know until a few hours before if I needed her or not and under the circumstances, she was very supportive encouraging and helped at a drop of a hat. I came home yesterday morning after she had seen the dogs and she left a little card for them With two dog toys, saying from grandma Sandi. And a short amount of time she truly has become that. I also noticed she brought her own towel to wipe their feet off with in the mud Thank you Sandy for being so awesome and so kind encouraging and loving to my pups while I was away.”


About: As a dedicated and compassionate dog sitter, I go beyond basic care by providing personalized attention to meet each dog’s unique needs. My experience includes working with puppies, training them in basic commands and routines, and caring for senior dogs who require extra patience, gentle handling, and sometimes medication administration, as well as previous shelter dogs who need a little extra love. I believe in creating a safe, comfortable, and joyful environment, making sure each dog feels right at home. With a deep love for animals and an understanding of canine behavior, I’m committed to giving your pet the best experience possible, filled with playtime, exercise, and lots of affection. Additionally, I have a certification from Fear Free Shelters care program! I am currently working part-time and going to school full-time. My schedule is often changing, but I will keep my calendar updated and am happy to be flexible with your pets’ needs! I provide personalized pet care in your home, ensuring your furry friend feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow your established routines, including feeding schedules, exercise, and playtime, while also offering companionship and attention. During my visits, I engage your pet with activities that suit their needs, whether that’s a long walk, interactive play, or some quiet cuddle time. I also keep a close eye on their health and well-being, reporting any concerns back to you. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well-cared for while you’re away.

“Shamiya is wonderful! Always on time and very friendly. She was great with my dog, Miley, and Miley absolutely loves her. I one hundred percent recommend Shamiya for all your pets that need care n tlc. Thank you Shamiya!!!”


“We had a very tragic event happen with one of our dogs during our time away. Krysten was professional, caring, compassionate, and attentive. We couldn't have asked for better hands to be there if it couldn't be ours. We are forever grateful for her.”


“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 .”


“Rylie was great while we were on vacation! This was my first time using Rover, and we were very happy with our experience! We will absolutely plan to use Rylie again in the future!”


“Lacy went well above and beyond what was required of just setting out food, water, and cleaning the litter box. She got to know my very opinionated Queen Lilly who rules our end of the block. Lacy gave her the one on one attention and socialization she needs every day to remain calm and somewhat agreeable. Lacy won Lilly's trust and even hand fed her treats. It is the first time I returned home from a trip and did not get a two hour lecture of complaints from Lilly about how she was abandoned and left to starve with no company (which was not the case - she just did NOT like her caretaker). Happy cat = VERY happy cat owner!!”


About: With over 7 years of hands-on dog sitting experience, I’ve cared for pups/kitties of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I’ve handled everything from daily walks and medication administration (pills only) to overnight stays and longer holiday care. I prioritize creating a safe, loving environment that keeps their regular routine. Whether it’s fetch in the park or quiet cuddle time, I tailor care to each dog’s unique needs and personality. My schedule is open and flexible, which means I’m available for extended bookings, weekend getaways, *most* holidays, and all the in between’s. I’m here when you need me, morning, afternoon, or evening—no rigid time blocks, just dependable availability. Whether you’re heading out of town or working long hours, I’m ready to jump in with consistent, loving care. Pet parents can count on me to adapt to their routines and provide reliable service every day of the week. Safety and trust are the foundation of everything I do. I never leave dogs unsupervised in unsafe areas, and I only use the approved pups gear. I stay in close contact with pet parents, offering regular updates, pictures, and messages (if asked for) for peace of mind. With seven years of trusted pet care under my belt and a strong sense of responsibility, I treat your dog as if they were my own. Your pet’s wellbeing is always my top priority.

About: I have had animals in my family and taken care of them since I was very young. I will treat your fur babies like they are my own. I have a very flexible schedule because my schedule is flexible I’m able to work any special requests to my day and I am willing to work with your schedule too. If the pet has an accident I will clean up the mess and if the pet needs walked I will walk them and if they need breakfast or dinner I will feed them and I will take them for walks and do what I can to meet your pets needs

“Mercedes did a great job! She let me know when she arrived at our house and left our house. She sent daily pictures and let me know how our Zoe was doing! I’d use Mercedes again!”


“Sherrie was a Godsend and has such a pleasant energy! She dropped in on Bella for me at the very last minute and I truly appreciated it. I don’t take for granted that it’s the middle of winter and she took Bella out, fed her, gave her belly scratches and sent me pictures! I would highly recommend booking Sherrie and I will absolutely be booking her again soon! Thank you so much!!!”

Madolyn C.
“Madolyn took care of our two Dachshunds a Yorkie and a cat while we were in Mongolia. One Dachshund was being treated for an injury at the time. Maddie took care of all four, and one required medication multiple times per day, extreme close supervision, and extra care. Maddie could not contact us as we were on the Steppes. She did an outstanding job. On our return all were happy and healthy. Abby was healed and herself. We trust Maddie implicitly and plan to use her again for all of our animals. We believe that Maddie would make an excellent sitter and we have been Rover Sitters ourselves for many years.”
