“Came on very short notice to take our dog for a walk. Excellent communication and flexibility! Did a true 30 min walk as requested. Definitely recommend”

Mercer

“Kara has walked my dogs several times and I highly recommend her. She’s always on time, texts me ahead of time as a reminder and walks them for the full expected time. My dogs absolutely love her and are very excited when she comes over.”

About: The detail and attention I provide is very specific. I can administer oral medications, provide walks, play, and provide exercise. I’m also comfortable with brushing hair. My schedule is very flexible and it’s convenient to fit pat care into my weekly routine. As an independent worker I create my own schedule. My cats and dogs are cared for extremely well. They are quite spoiled. I care for others pets as if they are my own. I genuinely love all pets in my care.

“Kristin was very thorough and thoughtful when meeting our pups. She did a great job walking our dogs and following up with how they did. We would definitely consider booking with her again.”

Stephanie & Jacob O.

“Gary is the best!! He's so amazing with my pups! They love him and really enjoy their walks with him. And, he really helped me out when I found myself in need of a walker on short notice. Can't say enough how thankful I am for him & Rover.com!!”

Beverly N. W.

“Easily managed our large heavy puller on a walk. Reacted well and without fear or uncertainty when there was an altercation at the door between our two dogs. Very pleased.”

About: I have cared for family, friends, and neighbors pets since I was young. I have cared for puppies, adults, and seniors. First hand experience with reactive and anxious dogs. I am known for my patience and my genuine love for dogs! My schedule is flexible currently and can be adjusted to meet your pets needs! I do require booking 48 hours in advance for planning. Open to both weekly appointments and/or just when needed! When staying with your pet I will follow the routine that you have established with them. Including lots of extra love and attention to ease the stress of being apart! I will send a photo or video every day that they are in my care. For daytime care I am happy to stop by for a potty and play session or a walk when you need a hand! I have completed training classes (basics, dog reactivity) through K-9 Turbo. Happy to support reactive dogs working on walking and redirecting to positive reinforcements! I promise to love your pet like my own.

About: I have had dogs since I was born. I have experience dealing with training puppies as well as dealing with senior dogs. I will follow your instructions for care to the T because I know how important it is for dogs to have stable training and schedules. I will take your dog to the park, out on a walk, on a run, or with me around town. In my mind dogs are part of the family and I will treat them as one of my own for as long as I have the privilege to take care of them. I have two rescues, both fixed that get along great with other dogs. I foster for several rescues so i know how to deal with different temperaments of dogs. Your dog will receive the same care as mine and all the same walks/runs/play time. I work from home so I am able to take your dog outside, for walks, and ensure they are getting the exercise they need to thrive. I have a fenced in yard, gated front porch, and a gate on the stairs. The dogs will have full access to the basement (dog proofed) and first floor. Access to the top floor will be for bedtime (if the routine is the dog sleeps in the bed). We also have a playpen and crates here at the house.

About: Hello! I am an active and reliable animal lover with years of experience pet-sitting. I value open communication and strive to offer my clients peace of mind while their fur babies are in my care. I specialize in high-energy dogs that need a good long walk/run to be happy/healthy (and sane 😅). But I promise I'm also great with mellow couch potatoes. And I excel at belly rubs! I am a medical student trying to save up to pay for my final semester of medical school, studying for board exams, and hopefully getting to hang out with some awesome pets while doing so. My schedule is wide open and flexible for house-sitting, drop-ins, and walks/runs. I am flexible, accommodating, and can do last-minute requests! I understand that fur-babies are part of the family, and I treat them with the love, respect, and dignity they deserve. I pride myself in treating each pet as in individual and respecting any schedules and guidelines offered by the family. This is one of the reasons why meet 'n greets are so important, and I am more than happy to meet beforehand when the circumstances allow.

“Merritt was very quick to respond to my request for dog walking services, got along well with my pup from the initial meet & greet, showed utmost care & had great walks!”

About: I got started dog-sitting as a teenager, because every family I baby-sat for had dogs as well. I've spent years walking and taking care of dogs, though I've never had one of my own. I love dogs, but through my adult life so far, I haven't lived in an apartment complex that allowed them. I am up for long walks and playtime. I also just moved to the Detroit-area from Kalamazoo, and walking dogs seems like a great way to get to know the neighborhoods.

About: I’ve been around dogs for my whole life. I’ve owned as small as a Chihuahua and as big as a Great Pyrenees. I absolutely adore animals and as a full time healthcare graduate student I will enjoy the study break as much as they will enjoy the outside break! I’m currently a full time graduate student and when I’m not in class or at the hospital I am looking for every excuse to get outside! I am more than happy to watch your pups in your home with drop in visits and walks. With two pups of my own at home, overnight visits would have to be at your own home.

“Amanda is amazing! She’s super quick to respond, and she even came to meet us prior to our first walk so that we were all comfortable with the process. My little girl loved her time with Amanda, and she sent plenty of photos of her smiling face on their walk. I was a little nervous since this was my first time using Rover, but Amanda made the process smooth and comforting, and we’ll be booking more walks here soon!”

Julianne B.

“Audrey I can’t thank you enough for taking care of brady! She took him for a nice long walk, was patient with his nervousness, and sent lots of pics to update me along the way. So grateful to have found you on Rover!”

About: Hi! I'm David. I grew up in Michigan surrounded by dogs and farm animals. Labrador Retrievers were the family favorite, however, I rescued a Basset Hound Mix during the pandemic. One of my college jobs was working at a doggy daycare center. I was quickly promoted to manager and ended up rolling out a marketing plan for the business. It was a blast! I live in Metro Detroit (Oak Park) and am currently "funemployed" which means I have all the time in the world to take care of your furry companions! I take pride in my ability to be patient, gentle, responsible, and fun with all kinds of dogs, sizes, and ages. I have vast and diverse experience taking care of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, horses, and birds. During college, I volunteered at various humane societies and frequently dog sat for friends and relatives. I was also instrumental in co-training a Golden Retriever to be a service dog. That was a highly rewarding experience. My approach to dog care is to start with the owner and get to know the dog through their eyes. I then channel that love and devotion to esteemed care, ensuring that walks are done frequently, food is out at a responsible time, and that enough attention is spent with the dog. I'm an outdoors guy and walk whenever I get the chance, so rest assured that your dog will get a healthy amount of outside time. If you've made it this far and like what you've read, let's schedule a meet-and-greet! I take my pup for walks at least four times a day, and let her roam free in my fenced in backyard. I provide attention and care throughout the day! I'm very respectful not only of my client's pets, but also their homes. I'm very trustworthy and neat/tidy. I've dog sat in many homes both for the day and overnight. I treat other people's property as if it were my own.

About: Hello! I can't wait to provide exceptional care to your furry family. I have been working in the professional pet care field for over 5 years and have lots of experience with animals of all temperaments, energy levels and needs! I was a manager/ supervisor of two dog daycares in Colorado which gave me a vast understanding of dog behavior in general as well as that of different breeds. This also gave me experience in caring for elderly dogs and administering oral and topical medications. I have also volunteered for shelters working with fearful and high arousal dogs using patience and treats in order to allow their personalities blossom! In my pet sitting career I have safely worked with dogs who are both dog and human reactive, as well as those with high prey drive. I am always happy to accommodate whatever your pet needs, whether they are a little nervous, highly active, or just need someone to give them lots of love. I will make sure your pets are always safe, happy, and enriched before you come home! I currently work Mondays and Tuesdays in 6-7 hour shifts at the Detroit Zoo. All other days I will mostly be available for 24 hour care It is very important to me that your pets are safe, comfortable and have everything they need while in my care. I know that every animal is an individual and make a point to tailor my services to your pets needs

About: Hello! My name is Liz ! I work at an Ed tech company and I am a life long dog lover. I have a very sweet 3 old German shepherd mix named Onna who loves to meet people, meet dogs and accompany me on coffee runs! ** If your dog is missing some puppy play dates Onna and I would be happy to schedule a visit or a walk together! ** Growing up my family had black labs and a german shepherd. I have a huge soft spot for big dogs and love to be outside with a dog. I am naturally patient with kind dogs and have good instincts in any expected or unexpected situation that will inevitably come along when pets are involved. I treat all dogs like they are my best friend. Once I get to know your dog I will likely greet them before I say hello to you! I understand that life is busy and your dog is the most loved member of your household so you want to keep them happy, healthy, and well loved and I cannot wait to help contribute to that! I work remotely with a flexible schedule so I am open to meeting with your dog when it works for all of you. My dog and I walk twice a day so if you are open to meeting my dog before hand they can join our schedule! I have a fenced in yard and if you are interested in meeting my dog before hand we’d love to make It a dog play date.
