“Olivia is reliable, honest, caring and is a wonderful friend to our dog Stella! She has a great attitude and excellent communication skills. We highly recommend her.”


“I was very worried about finding someone dependable to care for our dog while we're at work. Emma has been communicative and reliable, and a huge help to us. We would recommend her for anyone looking!”


About: I love dogs and animals - they really are the best! I have owned three for many years, raising two from being puppies, and addressing challenging behavior with an older doggo, in addition to fostering multiple rescue dogs. I recently moved to WI, and my pets stayed home with my partner for now, and miss my furry companions and want to provide love and care for yours while I’m here! I am happy to work with you on what’s best, whether that is house sitting, boarding, or simply letting your animals out on walks or to go potty. Let’s chat! I currently work from home and have a remote job, so can provide your dog with any needs or attention that makes sense based on their schedule. I have some in-person meetings that occur throughout the week, and am generally around on the weekends regularly. If planning on boarding or daycare, I now live in a home with a nice backyard. I can easily crate, take out for potty breaks, etc. I am also mindful of dog reactivity regardless of my own or neighbor’s dogs.

“Adrienne has been great with our pup! She shows up when she says she’s going to and our pup is eagerly waiting at the door for her. So glad we got connected and I trust her with no hesitation.”

About: I’ve had animals, mostly dogs and cats since I was A child. Let me know what your fur baby needs! I’m happy to accommodate. I had a beagle with me for 15 years and he was on various medications as he aged so I know how to administer medications if needed. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8-4:30 but am happy to walk your pet before or after those hours! I am happy to provide whatever care they might need while you are away. I see pets as members of the family. I have 2 dogs...a terrier and a mini poodle. I love them to pieces and they run the house! Lol. They are well behaved and allowed on the furniture and the bed. Your fur babies would be too! I want them to be comfortable in my home. If I’m dropping in to take care of your fur baby in their home just let me know what I need to do for them and consider it done! I take my pups out every morning for a short walk, after work, and just before bed time. I feed them twice a day with occasional treats that they love mixed in :) I'm in an apartment so they will be leashed when we go outside. I live close to 3 different parks as well as the Menomonee River Parkway....lots of space to walk with them and let them sniff away!
About: I am a dedicated pet caregiver committed to keeping your furry friend happy, healthy, and safe. I will strictly follow your pet's specific daily feeding and medication schedules to maintain their comforting routine. As an experienced and enthusiastic walker, I ensure they get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and fun outdoor adventures. Your pet will receive attentive, loving care and the absolute highest quality companionship every single day. In the month of June I am available after 1pm. Weekends depends but I can always accommodate. In July I will be available any day and anytime. I will always follow the instructions that the pet owner gives me. Hiring me your pet will always be fed on schedule, enjoy play time, and treats. Every home I visit will be respected and well taken care of.
About: My husband and I loved our dog for 10 years. We can’t get another one anytime soon but will love yours like our own. We both had dogs as pets growing up and have cared for a pet for 40+ years. I am an elementary school principal. I am available for full-time care or walking June-August. Outside of that, I’m available full-time on the weekends and evenings during the week. We are available to accommodate personal requests, a safe environment and safe neighborhood. We are looking to provide care for your beloved pet and to help you out when needed.
About: After graduating from Harvard, I moved from the Northeast to Wisconsin to train for speed skating. I grew up as a critter kid: my dad was a veterinarian and my mom worked in science museums, so I was raised around all sorts of animals, from birds, axolotls, and geckos to furry dog and cat companions. Since my move, I have been "dog-lonely" and am looking to show your animals some love. My family has always had huskies, so I am comfortable around big, goofy, energetic, and sometimes stubborn dogs. I love taking dogs for walks, but even more so, running with them if they are able. As a professional photographer, I also offer pet photography so you can keep permanent memories of your scaley, feathered, and furry family members. I am a speed skater, so my days consist of morning and evening workouts. I'm available during the day (10am-3pm) and overnight (after 7pm) to take care of your pets. I will always ask for a meet and greet before caring for your pets. My pet care will occur in your home and neighborhood. For walks, I will only take one household's dogs for a walk at a time. I can follow detailed instructions to a T and will maintain your animal's routines while you're away. I can be counted on in an emergency and know what a vet emergency looks like, and you can expect clear and timely communication from me around the care and health of your animals.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life, and own 2 of my own dogs now. I am also a licensed foster parent through the WHS, as well as seasoned pet sitter. Both myself & my fur babies love other pets in our home, or I can stay at yours, if you’d prefer. I’m currently a grad student studying pediatric counseling. I am available most weekdays & on the weekends. I have a relatively flexible schedule & will adapt as last minute as I can to accommodate your beloved fur friend! I have a fenced in yard with two friendly pups who LOVE play dates! We are ready to welcome you into our home (and yard!) as an extension of our family! To us, animals are everything!
About: I have three cats, including a senior cat with urinary health concerns, so I'm familiar with monitoring litter box habits, recognizing changes in routine, and providing extra care when needed. I also have experience managing a multi-cat household where one cat has behavioral challenges, which has taught me patience, observation, and how to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I'm familiar with administering pet medications and caring for animals with anxiety, including following medication schedules and maintaining calm, consistent routines to help them feel safe. I love dogs as well and enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds, whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply providing companionship. I treat every pet like family, follow routines closely, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they're away. I’m currently open to a wide range of availability, so I can prioritize pet care and be reliable for both regular and last-minute needs. I make sure every pet gets focused attention and care, just like I would for my own. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions carefully so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize sticking to their normal schedule for feeding, walks, medication, and playtime. I’m respectful of the home, keep things clean and organized, and make sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages for peace of mind.
About: I’ve taken care of many animals of family and friends and always insured to give them so much love during those even small, short visits! I grew up with dogs, and when I was able to have a pet of my own, I got a very large orange cat! I’m comfortable around all dogs and I am willing and wanting to adapt to the needs of your furry friends. My time will be towards making your pet as comfortable and is happy as can be whether that is going on walks or even going to the park. I was previously available throughout June but since beginning a new job, I will be available on the weekends/weekday mornings/weekday evenings for drop-ins and walks! Just let me know what you need! When in your home, I would love to take your furry friend on a walk, to the park, or anything else that you do that makes your pet comfortable and happy!
“Liz is the BEST!! Maggie is a very anxious dog, so usually it takes her awhile to warm up to people. Liz immediately recognized this and brought all the right treats to win over Maggie. She usually isn’t food motivated, but for Liz she is! Liz is very responsive and I’ve had no problem (or even worries) about a no show. The report cards I get of Maggie make me so happy and help get me through my day. If you need someone to take care of your dog, reach out to Liz!”

About: I've had multiple dogs over the last 30 years. Mainly Bull Mastiffs, Border Collie Mix, and multiple Pitties. We lately have been adopting older dogs to give them the best end of life possible. For friends I've watched many smaller to larger dogs, comfortable with all. I have experience with all sorts of meds and care, although I prefer to stay away from anything with needles when possible. We've been to the vet more times than I can count, and have gotten good at understanding/reading dog behavior and signs of distress. I have experience with all soft of personalities...shy or alpha, lazy or rambunctious, etc. I like to understand them and work with them where they are at so they enjoy themselves and are happy. I'm a pretty calm presence and in general dogs trust me right away. My wife will joke that I am a dog whisperer as dogs tend to follow my lead easily, but I think it is simply being confident and projecting that you are there to take care of them. I have a very flexible work schedule and am home most of the time. I only have 1 dog right now (Oscar, 82 lb Pitty who loves everything and everyone...he walks around with soft toys like they are his dolls), but will likely be back to 2 in the near future. I walk my pup(s) pretty much every day. We live near Hart Park and the Oak Leaf Trail so getting out to walk along the river/parks is very easy. New to doing this formally rather than just for friends. Normally watch friends dogs at their place. If we take care of your pup in our home, we will always have 1+ pups that will be other-dog friendly. My wife and I have a small Tosa home but fully fenced-in yard to be able to let them out at any time day or night without worry. We have a small main floor but it has 3-4 dog beds and multiple toys (prefer dogs who are ok with soft toys, as our pup(s) don't rip those up. Will likely prefer caring for your pup in your home, it simply mitigates the crowding in the house and any potential conflicts. If I look after any cats, those would be at your house. We no longer have cats and aren't prepped for that in any way.

About: Hi, my name is Abby! I am looking for a flexible summer job before I start full-time as an auditor in the fall, and I thought animal care would be a good match! I have had many pets throughout my life. There was always at least one dog and one cat at a time, usually many more. I have a deep, genuine care for all animals, and love to give them the love and attention they deserve! This summer I am studying for my CPA license! I have some vacations sprinkled in for the summer as well, but beside those and studying for a few hours a day, I will have plenty of time to take care of and play with your pets! I am available Mon-Fri, 8am-4pm, weekends and hourly exceptions available upon request! My complex unfortunately does not allow pets, so the caretaking would be happening in your home or neighborhood. I will be respectful of your house rules and rules for your pet. I will only be in your home when necessary. I will only use your pet's toys and harnesses as to not cross-contaminate with other pets. I will do my best to accommodate any other request as well.
“Elyzabeth was very thorough and communicative. She gave my pup a nice long walk and making sure she got her treat when going back in the crate! Thank you! Would definitely book again.”

Zoo dog parents share their Rover experiences
Olivia is absolutely amazing! She walked our dog Rumi for a week and made us feel completely at ease. She’s incredibly reliable, prompt and communicative, sending lots of updates and pictures. She went above and beyond, taking him on great long walks (rain or shine!) and even wiping his paws after it rained. Rumi loved his midday sniffing breaks and we loved how trustworthy she is. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely use her again!

Kelsey is the best! She was responsive from the moment I reached out and took the time to learn all of our dogs quirks. Our dog can be a bit reactive, but she already had experience with that, which was incredibly reassuring while we were away. She was patient and great with him, and we came home to a well loved and tired boy. Highly recommend!

Michellr was awesome. This is thr first time we have used Rover and we loved it. I contacted Michelle kind of a last minute thing and she was so nice and responsive. She csme over to meat our dogs before and thst was appreciated. We had Michelle just walk our dogs for 5 days. The weather was not idea, but she still made it every day.

She has been such an amazing person! I can tell she cares about my dog and she is always easy to reach. When an issue came up, she was able to quickly solve the problem. Always willing to go above and beyond. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone that is searching for someone to care for their pet.

We recently moved to the area and needed to find a dog walker for our two dogs. I reached out to Bella, did a meet and greet, and then she walked them three days this week. She is FANTASTIC! Excellent communication, and she provides several pictures. It's clear she loves dogs and I love that. She was also very understanding when we had to cancel the fourth day due to my husband staying home because he was sick. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Alexandra is the best!! She’s been coming to walk and play with my two pups weekly for a few months now. Besides my babies having a great time with her, she has great communication with me, and she really enjoys teaching them new things. She helped give medication and walking my girl pup with a sling after she had a TPLO knee surgery. I am very thankful for Alexandra.

Dog Walking FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.
Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Zoo.
You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates.
