About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, including large breeds like German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, Labs, and Belgian Malinois, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. For the past 4 years, I’ve been dog sitting and have experience caring for puppies as well as older dogs with different routines and needs. I have references from previous clients who can speak to my reliability and how well I care for their pets. I also have a college degree and bring a strong sense of responsibility and trust to every job. I love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, taking them on trails, playing, or just relaxing at home. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I also love cats and am happy to care for them too, though most of my experience is with dogs! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time and also volunteer with research labs as I prepare for graduate school. While I’m unavailable for extended weekday house-sitting due to my work schedule, I have availability for evening and weekend pet care and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care. I’m used to structuring my day around animals, whether that’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication administration, or simply providing companionship. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, and caring for them is something I look forward to. I strive to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible and adapt to their individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic and loves activity or prefers a calmer environment and extra cuddles, I aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet like they’re my own. I always make sure they have fresh water, are fed on their normal schedule, and stick to their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. For dogs, I provide at least two walks a day along with plenty of outdoor time, play, and attention based on their energy level. I love going on walks or trails, but I’m just as happy hanging out at home with them and giving them lots of love and companionship. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of your space and make sure everything stays clean and organized. I follow all care instructions closely and keep you updated so you feel at ease while you’re away. If pets are in my home, they’ll be in a safe, calm environment with lots of supervision and attention. My goal is always the same, to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved the entire time you’re gone.

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m active, reliable, and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I love going on long walks, giving pets attention and playtime, and making sure they feel safe and happy. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, and detail-oriented, and I’ll always communicate clearly with pet parents and provide updates throughout visits! I am a full time teacher so I am available most evenings starting at 5pm and available some weekends. I am off for the summer soon and will then be available during the daytime on weekdays and on weekends when I’m not traveling! I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, so I take time to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m mindful during walks, careful with doors/leashes, and respectful of each client’s home and routines. I also believe communication is key, so I make sure pet parents receive updates and photos for peace of mind throughout each visit!
About: I've raised and cared for my baby dog Lola also known as lolanaptimepartygirl since I was 10, pets have always played a very important role in my life. I love animals of all kinds and ages having 4 senior dogs of my own. I believe all animals deserve love and respect as they are not only friends but family, and it is truly an honor to get to exist in a world where we are able to connect with and care for such beautiful kind creatures. I work a part time job that's pretty flexible so I'm relatively available whenever. My schedule changes weekly so just let me know what you need and I'll make it work! I have a fenced in yard and gates that are available to be set up throughout the house. I am also able to crate your pet if needed.
About: As a long time pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your animals. I treat every pet in my care the same way I’d want mine to be treated—with patience, attention, and genuine love. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities—I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! A typical day with me is structured around your pet’s routine to keep them happy and stress-free. For walks and drop-in visits, I make sure your dog gets the right balance of exercise, love, and attention! During visits, I can also help with feeding, refreshing water, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure your pet feels safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m currently offering dog walking and in-home drop-in visits. I provide attentive, personalized care to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy at all times. Also, have experience with Seniors.
About: Hi!! My name is Maggie and I am a 20 year old who loves all dogs! I have three of my own at home, and have experience with more aggressive dogs. I am available to walk, play, feed, and stay with your pups! One of mine is just a puppy too who is going through hands on training so I can implement my skills in this field as well!! I have plenty of time to see your pups! I work part-time and play hockey but have lots of wiggle room! Available for most occasions! Being that I have 3 dogs in my home with my brother, it would be more beneficial for me to come to you. If you do need daycare, with permission they could have play dates! I can pretty much do anything from coming in for a walk, to feeding them, to staying for longer periods of time as needed.
About: I am a social worker in the schools who is looking for some fun for her kids and to teach both responsibility and the work that goes into owning a pet. I am a single mom.

About: Hello, I'm Hadley! If you're looking for a reliable, friendly and animal-loving human to provide short-term care for your pets, I'm your girl! I've cared for both cats and dogs over the years since childhood, rarely living without having at least one in the house! I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages and temperaments. I also volunteered with the Michigan Animal Rescue League as a dog walker from 2023-2024 where I was trained in understanding various dog behaviors and how to provide a safe environment even in stressful situations. I am looking forward to putting my knowledge to use and providing excellent care for pets in my local area! Let's connect and schedule a complimentary meet-and-greet! I can't wait to meet your four-legged family! I work in the government sector and am starting a new full-time job later this year, making me available for your pet care needs nearly 24/7! Whether it's a drop-in or short-lengthy walk, I am excited to enrich your pets life while you're away! While I can't care for your pet in my home, I am a quick learner who will mold my time with your pet around your routine with them! You can trust me to treat your pet as one of my own and provide the utmost respect for your space.
“Wonderful first experience with Abbey! Great communication and my little Stella is usually so shy and barky to new people, but she warmed up instantly to Abbey on our initial meet and greet. I will definitely be booking again, thank you :)”

Birmingham cat parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time booking with Becca and we could not recommend her more. We have a 1 year old cat, who can be shy at first and she took the time to make him comfortable, including coming for a meet and greet. We were out of the country for 7 days, and did not worry once. The communication and pictures we received were great. She even brought in packages and trash cans for us. When we got home, I think our cat was upset that it wasn’t Becca walking into the house again! We will definitely be booking with Becca again in the future!

Alex and Zach are awesome, they are incredibly responsive and attentive to all correspondence, take amazing care of feeding and caring for my cats, and make sure they take pictures of my cats for each visit. I super appreciate this as it gives me peace of mind seeing my pets while I'm away, and I know they are in good hands. Thank you Alex and Zach!
