“Melissa was great with our pups! She took videos and pictures each day, which made being away less stressful! She left the house just as it was. Overall great experience!”

“Kelsey went above & beyond with my dog, Nalah!! She took her to the dog park, for multiple walks, and sent photo and video updates throughout the day. My dog was smiling ear to ear in each photo- Highly recommend. Will def be using Kelsey again!!”

“Brian house-sat for my dog Lancelot this weekend for the first time. He went above and beyond. My dog loves him and Brian took such great care of him. I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation!”
About: I am older and very experienced with both cats and dogs from babies to senior care to transitioning. I care for extended family pets when not home I work a part time flexible schedule so my availability is your convenience. My only day off is Sunday which I set aside for family My pets are my family. I volunteer feeding and caring for family/friends pets when they are away from home over night or away on vacation

“Our year and 1/2, 170 mastiff absolutely loves Michaela! And I know this because he hasn't stopped looking for her since we got back. She attended to every detail and more. Also she stayed with him at night! It's great knowing our baby has a competent and loving sitter for future needs!”

“Holly Jean was fantastic and I look forward to booking her again. She was able to adapt and kept us informed through any issues and my partner and I are so glad she was there to give our pups excellent care.”

“Genevieve was a great dog/house sitter for my German Shepherd! She sent regular updates with pictures and left the house spotless. We’ll definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”

About: I have an open schedule besides classes that get done early. I grew up with multiple cats and had a Great Dane when I was little. Being a college student, I have flexibility that can help with pet care. Most of my classes are before noon so that frees up a lot of time. Of course simply feeding them and making sure they use the bathroom, but beyond that playing with them and being a human presence in the room so they have a friend.
“Cassidy watched out 2 large, energetic dogs and our cat for four nights in our home and we always felt they were in great care. She is extremely communicative and updated us with pics and videos the whole time. Very flexible and accommodating. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Andrea took such great care of my dog, who after the weekend was happily tired out and had obviously gotten lots of love and cuddles! Andrea was also respectful of my home, leaving towels hung up, and cleaning up after Enola in the back yard. 10/10 reccomend!”

“Cindy did a fabulous job with Pearl! Pearl willingly sat on her lap and snuggled with her - which if you know Pearl - you know that she only really does that with my husband and I. It was a great feeling to be able to go on vacation and not have a single worry about Pearl. Cindy sent regular pictures which we appreciated. We would hire Cindy again in a heartbeat! Thank you soooooooooo much Cindy for the excellent care of Pearl!”

About: Volunteered and then worked full-time at an animal shelter, fell in love with our fluffy friends, and can't wait to make more! I was a long-time volunteer (2+ years) at the Ausable Valley Animal Shelter. Then I transitioned into a full-time position there as an animal technician and learned so much about general animal care, medication procedures, and sanitation requirements to meet state health codes. I truly miss being able to visit with new animals every day and look forward to bringing the bark (and meow) back into my life! I'm a student, which means class times are often at odd hours, leaving many mornings open to check in on pets, keep them company, or get in some doggy exercise! I am also available almost all Fridays-Sundays, making me the perfect option for pet sitting during your weekend plans. See below for more detailed availability (updated for Sept-Dec)! Monday : not available Tuesday : 7am-2pm & 6pm-10pm Wednesday : 7am-11am and 5pm-10pm Thursday : 7am-2pm & 6pm-10pm Friday-Sunday : all day availability I am an incredibly clean and organized person. I always try to leave the homes I pet-sit in just as they were when I entered, even if that means a bit extra clean-up!
“Tyler stayed at our house for a week with our puppy. He left everything just as he found it and was very dependable! We loved the daily updates and pictures! Would definitely recommend!”

“Had an awesome experience with Molly and her dog Izzi! She sent photos and videos throughout dog sitting at my apartment, which eased my nervousness of leaving her alone for the first time. She did really well with my dog and her social anxiety. I will definitely be rehiring her again for future needs! 10/10 Highly recommended.”


About: I've had cats my whole life, so I'm used to the day to day of caring for an animal and noticing when something's off. I've also dog sat for my aunt a handful of times: feeding, walks, letting them out, and keeping them company. I'm reliable and I actually pay attention. I'll follow whatever routine your pet is already used to instead of forcing my own, and I'll send updates so you're not left wondering how they're doing while you're away. My schedule is flexible right now, so I have plenty of time during the day for walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins, including weekdays. I'm happy to work around whatever your pet's routine already is rather than making them fit mine, and I can be reliable about timing. For visits and house sitting, I follow whatever routine you already have. You tell me the feeding, walks, and any quirks, and I stick to it exactly instead of improvising. I'll make sure doors and gates stay shut, keep an eye on how your pet is doing, and message you if anything seems off. I have a cat of my own at home, so I'm used to keeping an animal safe, fed, and on a schedule.
“Lillie stayed with my two dogs in our home for 10 days . She came over to meet them and again right before we left . Her communication prior to us leaving and while we were gone ,was awesome. She also accommodated big changes to our plans . The dogs did great and she sent pictures which made me happy ! This is my first experience with Rover and leaving someone I had just met with "my kids". Lillie did a great job. I would recommend her and will use her again .”

“I do not know where to start other than Hillary went above and beyond for my furbabies Piper and Paislee. The night before Hillary was suppose to come stay at the house Paislee became very ill and was at emergency vet from 615pm until 6 am. I explained everything that was going on to Hillary and for not ever watching Piper and Paislee she was very attentive to Paislee as we had to leave 2.5 hours after getting her home to the airport. I cooked everything I needed and left all medications on the counter and let her know the times of next doses. She seemed comfortable with everything and I couldn’t have been lucky enough to find her. She used her best judgment and I couldn’t have been anymore blessed with her caring PIper and Paislee. I was able to get updates about every other day due to our traveling plans. I let her know many times how grateful I was. Then I came home to a beautiful letter and she washed all the blankets from the dogs, towels, and the guest room bedding. She do not have to do that but I am grateful. Hillary went way above and beyond caring for our dogs. Thank you Hillary from the bottom rny heart!!!!!!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alger Heights
Kate was amazing!! During the meet and greet she was so good with our dog who is slow to warm up to strangers. While we were out of town, she sent frequent updates, lots of photos, and Frank was happy and calm when we got home. She went above and beyond and even refilled some of his frozen treat containers when we were gone! Would definitely love to have her look after Frank again.

We had the pleasure of working with Michael as our dog sitter on very short notice. Michael went above and beyond to make sure we felt completely comfortable and confident that our dogs were in great hands. He was thoughtful, communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Knowing they were with someone so attentive gave us such peace of mind. What made the experience even more special was how much Michael helped us enjoy our visit to his city. He was incredibly welcoming and went out of his way to make our trip easier and more enjoyable. He exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and genuinely wonderful dog sitter. We would absolutely work with Michael again!

Thank you for watching our two pups for overnight stays! Jessica provided clear updates just frequently enough with photos along the way, which I appreciated. It was clear she had care for our fur kids and also to our house. We look forward to having Jessica back again to watch our two pups!

Holly Jean did a fantastic job with Bernie. He seemed happy and our house was well-cared for. She sent pictures and videos of him while we were away. She made sure to clarifying any directions she wanted to be sure of. We would be happy to have her stay with Bernie again.
