1. Miguel T.



“I discovered Miguel just like anybody on the Rover Website. He is awesome! Initially I was nervous allowing someone in my home and caring for my beagle Colby! Miguel was very prompt in responding to my request, he came for not one but two interviews the second to meet my brother and the neighbors and their dogs. He took great care of Colby and spoiled her a lot! I have a wireless fence doggy door and large yard. Miguel still walked her each day. I was able to check in with him while I was gone and feel very secure knowing he will be here now when I must be away for work.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better, kinder or sweeter person to watch over our dog. As a dog owner your pet is your family member and you want to trust the person in their care and in your home. Yahawa is all these things. I wouldn’t hesitate to yes yet again recommend her highly. Thank you!”

“Amanda was amazing with my three dogs! She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated throughout. She had an escape artist and was able to chase my pup and bring her to safety! I felt very comfortable knowing that Amanda was there with them while I was away! I would 100% recommend Amanda and look forward to working with her again! Thank you Amanda for taking such good care of Sadie, Koda and Rosie!! I’m so grateful!”

“Claire was amazing! I had to book last minute and Claire was very responsive and timely. This was also my first time using Rover and she was super patient with me :) My dog is a bit needy with his separation anxiety & Claire gave him all the cuddles and love he needed <3 She also kept me updated with multiple photos throughout the sitting (which gave me a lot of comfort!). Next time I'm in Birmingham, MI I will 100% try and book Claire again!!”

19. Monica R.


“Monica was amazing! She took such good care of our pets and was so sweet and easy to work with. She did a thorough job at the meet and greet where she learned all the details about the animals. While we were on vacation she sent the best photos and updates. We will definitely be booking with Monica again 🙂”


20. sarah a.

“Sarah exceeded our expectations while house and dog sitting Yoshi! Sarah took excellent care of Yoshi and provided us with many pictures and updates throughout the week. Our main concerns were that Yoshi received his medication, was eating (he goes on hunger strikes while were away) and was getting a walk/some love each day. Sarah made sure we were reassured daily with all concerns while away. Yoshi actually ate the entire time which meant he felt happy and loved by her! Sarah respected and took great care of our home as well! Yoshi was actually whining for her after we got home when would bring her up, so sweet! We will most definitely have Sarah help us when we are away again! We can't say enough good things about how comfortable we were with her at our home and with our fur baby while we were away!”
