Everything went very well. Scott is great about sending pictures and updates daily.”

“Becky was the best caregiver we found in the Milwaukee area for our pups. She is very communicative and gave our dogs the specific care they needed (one gets pretty anxious in new environments). We have hired her for single day care, an overnight, and a week-long trip out of state. She has a large backyard for the dogs to play in and lots of comfortable beds to rest for when they come inside. Most of all, we appreciate her daily pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”


“Truly amazing lady. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. She's incredible. She took such good care of my baby. We were gone for a week, and I received pictures and updates multiple times a day. She was very patience with my puppy. I think butterscotch wanted to stay with her! Thank you, Laura!”


“Yolanda was awesome!! I was nervous at first because my dog never went with anyone outside of family but she definitely made me feel comfortable and welcoming! I will definitely be rebooking her services! Thank you again Yolanda 😊”

Zoo dog parents share their Rover experiences
Stajia was absolutely lovely to work with! I loved getting updates and pictures from her, and my dog looked like he was having such a fantastic time in her care! I ended up needing to extend my time, and she was so gracious to accommodate me. I will definitely be requesting her to be my dog-sitter in the future.

My dog was super excited as we drove up to María Carolina's place, like she recognized it! I know Daisy loves being there and especially getting to play and interact with their young daughter, because of the photos and stories they share. Daisy had people with her almost nonstop and the neighborhood is beautiful and quiet with big trees, green grass, and lots of space to walk and play.

Louise is great, and has a very good setup for a small dog like our Coco. I nice place to get outside. Lots of attention. Louise is responsive, communicated well with us, and easy to work with. We highly recommend.

Leaving Zooey for the first time was very eased by knowing she was in Krystal’s care. The daily updates and photos confirmed how happy she was, and she has made permanent friends with Krystal’s two very sweet pups. It was a perfect environment for our girl, with lots of playtime and loving attention from a very caring and responsible sitter. We are so happy we found Krystal!

We can't say enough good things about Mindy - she treats our dog like she would her own, and is sensitive to our dog's needs. Thanks SO much Mindy!

Sarah is AWESOME!!! She gave us peace of mind by caring for our anxious little Beagle Ginger. Sarah gave us updates with pictures every couple of hours showing that Ginger was well taken care of. The one on one attention that Ginger got with Sarah definitely put ours minds at ease. Ginger had a vacation herself by getting to roam around the fenced in yard and getting snuggles every day and night. Sarah was a godsend and being able to book in such a short amount of time was fantastic! She was the perfect match for Ginger and for us 😁. I wish we would have found Sarah a lot sooner without frantically looking for care for Ginger for previous vacations. Sarah is the best!!

Gabi was great very communicative took very good care of my dog. I will definitely reach out to her again.

Pearl seemed to have a great time with Maggie! I loved how communicative she was while I was away, and she was super flexible and kind when my travel plans went a bit haywire. I would highly recommend Maggie!

Angie and her son took excellent care of our pup on short notice! She asked lots of questions about Oscar's routines to make sure he was as comfortable as possible. He was so happy in her home. She sent lots of updates. Oscar came wait to spend time with them again :)

Monsserath took great care of our dog Rosie while we were on a trip! Rosie was very anxious when I first dropped her off, but Monsserath was very understanding and helped her settle in. Rosie is scared of other dogs, but Monsserath was able to accommodate that and was very kind. Monsserath does speak more Spanish than English, but between Google and other folks in the house who could help translate, I didn't see it as an issue at all. We would definitely book with her again :)

The most considerate and loving home for our Teddy! We were able to leave for vacation and know Teddy was well taken care of. He’ll miss his vacation home with you!

Jennifer took such great care of our Bernadoodle. She was well cared for, she administered her pills, and our dog was so comfortable in her home. Really appreciate her care for Blue and would use Jennifer again!

Janet and John were wonderful to work with. They took such great care of Maddie and gave consistent updates so I knew she was being well cared for!
Kari was extremely communicative and caring! My was was so happy and loved! She loved all the playtime and the big yard!!

Oliver had a wonderful time with Michelle and her family. Michelle shared a lot of photos and provided daily updates during Oliver’s stay.

Sofia was so welcoming for our Ella and so sweet! She only watched our dog for a few hours but sent multiple photos and even recommended a Spotify playlist Ella seemed to like. I wish we lived in Wisconsin because we would love to use her more often!

We are thrilled with the care they gave our dog Rosie. They kept us updated with how she was doing and what she was doing. We hope they are available to care for Rosie again in the future. Jenny, Jeff, and Emma

Erin and fam always do a great job at watching our doggo! Their dog gets along super well with Minnie, and I love seeing all of the adorable pictures that she sends during the stay. I always know that she’s in good hands here. ❤️
