Lauren was amazing with my little guy! She took such good care of him, helped him get his meds, and was so easy to coordinate with. And she visited him *twice* on Christmas Day! I can’t recommend her highly enough.

My cat usually becomes a little anxious when I’m away from home for more than a day but she loved Lauren so much that there was no anxiety detected when I got home. Lauren took really great care of my cat and sent cute pictures of her everyday. She was extremely kind and helpful. She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her as a sitter! Thanks for everything, Lauren!

I’ve lost track of how many times Lukis has watched my kitties. Lukis is incredibly reliable - always providing poetic updates with hilarious photos for my peace of mind. My home is always in perfect order when I return and my cats are happy, healthy, and loved. I know that whenever I leave town, I can count on Lukis to take care of my fur babies. Thanks Lukis (:

This was our first time using Rover and needing help outside of family/friends while away from home, so it goes without question that we were anxious to leave our babies. Upon meeting Chelsea, we knew she was a perfect match for our cats! While we were gone she took great care of our kitties and left us detailed notes and pictures. We hope that our cats can continue to develop their relationship with Chelsea to help put them (and their parents!) at ease while away. 10/10 would highly recommend!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old. I have experience with various breeds and ages. I’ve work with puppies, senior dogs, pitbulls, labs, doodles, and more. I am allergic to cats, so I am only available for dog bookings. Local to the Metro Detroit area looking to support dogs and their families 🫶 I’m am putting in my 2 weeks at my full time job on Monday and am looking for part time work doing what I love: caring for dogs. My schedule will be super flexible after 2/20/26 :) I am sadly living in a small apartment currently, but I’d be happy to care for dogs in a client’s home. I’m super type A and communicative. I would want to follow family instructions as closely as possible and provide a loving calm environment.

About: I worked at Premier Pet Supply for a year and a half, and LOVE dogs!! I am also very active and am used to walking my 50lb pitbull who knows how to pull😂 I am currently a full-time student who works a part-time job! I have a cat who I love and care for, as well as my mother’s dog and numerous family friends who I enjoy pet-sitting for. I am very active so walks are always fun, and I can watch pets overnight as needed! I am in an apartment right now, so dogs would transparently be difficult to board, but in a clients home I have historically done very well! I work 7 hour days 4 days a week currently, which can be adjusted as needed for clients and their pets comfort. I am also very good at following instruction and caring for animals- I used to work at a pet store!

Our second time booking Jeannette! We’re so happy to have someone as reliable and caring as her to look after our boys. It puts our mind at ease knowing she was able to administer their medication and give them a lot of love on the days we were away. Her flexibility with accommodating us so last minute means a lot. We won’t hesitate to book her again in the future!

It's always a pleasure to have Ariel looking after our cats. She's very attentive to details and always gives thorough updates (and great pictures!) on everything. I can actually relax on vacation, knowing that she's got everything taken care of. We always come home to happy kitties! Thank you Ariel!

About: I am a medical student who loves to play and care for animals. I have been caring for all types of animals for the past 10 years, including but not limited to dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, hedgehogs, etc. I have personal experience caring and training my dog who was diagnosed with glaucoma which caused her to become blind in one eye. This means that I have to administer eye drops into her eye every night. I have trained her to go to her bed and sit patiently to allow me to input her eye drops peacefully in an exchange for a treat. In high school I also helped train puppies to become guide dogs for the blind. I am able to care for wild and rambunctious dogs to relaxed and care-free dogs. With these special skills and personal experiences, I will be able to ensure that your dog is cared for as if they are my own. I understand that dogs are a huge part of your family and will do my best to make sure they are treated with love. As a full time student, I have flexibility in my schedule to fit in pet care into my weekly routine. I like to implement breaks into my study schedule and what good way to rest than playing/caring for animals! While I am unable to board / care for animals in my own home, I will be able to go to the pets home and care for them there. I can do house visits to feed or care for them in the home or take them out for walks around your neighborhood.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats; for my own pets and for neighbors, friends, and family. I'm attentive, very communicative, and genuinely love animals, so I treat every pet like my own. I love sending pictures throughout the day so you don’t need to worry about your pet while you’re away! I follow feeding schedules closely, provide walks and potty breaks as needed, give medications when needed, and crate pets if requested. My goal is always to keep each pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I keep my calendar updated regularly and have open availability most days. For longer stays, 12–24 hours' notice is appreciated. On Monday and Wednesday evenings I have limited availability, but please communicate with me and we can make something work. I will go above and beyond to make sure you are stress free! My calendar is always up to date, so what you see is what's available, no surprises! I'm generally very flexible and love being able to say yes. For overnight stays or multi-day bookings, a little heads-up of 12–24 hours helps me make sure your pet gets my full attention. Monday and Wednesday evenings I'm a bit limited, but mornings and afternoons those days work perfectly. When in doubt, just reach out, I'm happy to make it work! Your pet's safety is my #1 priority, always. I stick to feeding schedules like clockwork, administer medications exactly as instructed, and make sure your dog is crated comfortably if that's part of their routine. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I'd want for my own; you'll never have to wonder if your fur baby is in good hands :)

Lukis is amazing! I had such a great experience and can’t recommend them highly enough. They took loving care of my cat while I was away for the night, and it really put my mind at ease. Not only did they make sure he was fed and comfortable, but they also handled his insulin injection with care and confidence, which meant a lot to me, since I know it may not be easy or comfortable to do. Throughout the entire process, Lukis was incredibly communicative and kept me updated making sure I knew my cat was in good hands. That level of attentiveness and professionalism made everything feel easy and stress-free. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again! Truly a relief knowing Lukis is trusted, reliable, and caring 🖤🙂 They also took care of girlfriend's cat on the same night 😺

Really on top of everything, making sure she knows where everything is and the cats’ general routine before arriving, even made sure to double check with me when they got overexcited for their food. My usually shy cats warmed up to her quickly, and judging by the pictures had a great time, I’ll definitely be hiring Eleanor again when I go away.

Erik is so great with my cat. He takes great care of her and goes above and beyond to look out for my entire household. My dog has been gone the last couple of drop ins, but I look forward to Erik taking care of her too. He is clearly a natural animal lover and will care for your pet as if it’s his own.

Naomi was diligent and attentive to our new cat who played a tough game of hide and seek each time she arrived to check on him. Instead of throwing her hands up and saying she couldn’t find him, she took the extra effort of searching (high and low) to make sure he was doing well. We can’t thank Naomi enough for putting our minds at ease while we were on vacation. Thank you, Naomi!
