Carissa was amazing. We are so grateful to have found someone so caring, who treats our dog as her own. Our dog felt comfortable immediately and fell in love with her. She makes us feel so relaxed, comfortable, and at ease when he is in her care. She is our go to girl! I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!

Excellent communication and very respectful! Our dogs seemed to love her and we felt comfortable being away while she cared for our pups. We appreciated the pictures and updates while we were away. Would definitely recommend Reygan to care for your pups. Thank you, Reygan!

Mia was great! Having her stay with my cat allowed me to enjoy my vacation and not worry. She sent pics daily and assured me everything was ok. I definitely will use her again and recommend her to stay with your fur babies!

From the very first meeting with Sarah, our Mocha was so enamored with her! They got along well, and I'm sure our Mocha enjoyed Sarah's young energy, which we, as owners, don't have so much of any longer. :) There were a couple of scheduling glitches, but overall we were very happy. The one big thing was when we came home, Mocha didn't appear stressed out, as sometimes she has in the past. That's a big deal. Thanks so much, Sarah!

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, with experience ranging from dogs, cats, and rabbits to ferrets, birds, hamsters, and all kinds of farm animals. I also grew up maintaining a 400-gallon fish tank that included a wide variety of fish and even small freshwater sharks, giving me a strong understanding of aquatic care. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have raised two very active 100+ lb German Shepherd/Lab mixes since they were puppies, so I am confident handling large, high-energy dogs. Despite my size, I am fully capable of managing and guiding strong animals safely and effectively. I am happy to assist with all aspects of pet care, including long walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I am also comfortable caring for pets of all ages and administering medications when needed (with prior instructions). Additionally, I have long-term experience(10+ years) caring for a Bengal cat with Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD), which has given me hands-on experience with specialized care and medication routines. I am currently a student at Central Michigan University and work part-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available for both daytime visits and overnight stays in your home. I strongly believe pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, and I strive to maintain their routine while providing consistent care and companionship. I am always happy to provide extra references or additional information to help you feel confident and comfortable. I also maintain a respectful, non-judgmental approach to every home and will always leave your space in the same condition as when I arrived. So never be afraid of how your space might look!

Brittany is THE BEST sitter ever. She always goes above and beyond to make sure that all the animals are not just cared for, but adored. Every time we have had her she's gone the extra mile doing little things like cleaning a cage, giving them an extra brushing, doing an extra walk, whatever it takes to give the animals the best experience. They all love her and we do too. Cannot recommend enough!

I'm truly thankful to have met and hired Yushonda. I have watched over 100 dogs, and I mean it when I say she is a step above everyone else. Mara is dog aggressive and dismissive of people and very slow to build trust. Yushonda would not settle for good enough or merely being present in the house. She strived and worked hard to build that trust, working with Mara, making her presence known, and building trust at Mara's pace. I was shocked to hear Mara got comfortable enough to jump right in bed on the first night. I had expected at the end of the stay for our dog to maybe allow pets, instead she made a great new friend by the first day and asked for belly rubs, something she only does for 3 people. Yushonda instilled trust not only in Mara but also us. Without her, we would have not been able to have gone on our trip and been able to see family, relax, and be at ease. Send Yushonda a message, you and your fur baby will not regret it or think about hiring someone else. I am so happy to know we have someone that will care about our baby as much as we do. I'm so thankful to finally have someone I can whole heartedly recommend, with full confidence, to watch my client's pets and know she will live up to that recommendation and always go above and beyond.

Rebecca was wonderful and we will definitely be using her again. She was very kind and helpful and easy to deal with. She watched our two dogs while we were away for the weekend and also took care of the fish, the hermit crabs and the plants! The dog seemed relaxed and happy when we got home 😊

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs for at least 20 years. I love each as if they were my own. I also love turtles, and frogs but don’t have much experience with them. ❤️🐸❤️ I can do dog walking, and any other daily drop ins you may need. My schedule is very open for any house/pet sitting you may need also. I’d like this to be what I do for a career. I am willing to stay with your pet in your home and to walk your dogs in their favorite places. I want them to feel at home and comfortable.

About: With years of hands on experience caring for a variety of pets, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their unique needs. From my own furry family of 3 dogs, 4 cats, a bunny, and a horse, I’ve learned the importance of being attentive, patient, and nurturing. My studies in Animal Science at CSU have further equipped me with the knowledge to care for pets with expertise and compassion. Whether it's administering medication, providing enrichment activities, or simply offering companionship, I ensure that every pet under my care feels safe, loved, and well cared for. With my current class schedule, I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. On most days, my classes are spread out, leaving me with large blocks of free time in the late morning, early afternoon, and evening. This allows me to be available for multiple visits throughout the day to ensure your pets receive the attention and care they need. Whether it's morning feedings, midday walks, or evening check-ins, I can easily fit pet care into my routine without any conflict. In caring for pets at clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow a detailed routine based on your pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions. I ensure that their living space remains clean and safe, and I offer plenty of attention and enrichment to keep them happy. I also maintain open communication with you to update you on how your pet is doing and address any concerns promptly. My goal is to provide seamless, loving care that makes your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you're away.

About: Lover of big dogs! Cats too (I have 2 of my own) 🐾 Grew up with golden retrievers, I have a lot of patience and love to care for your pup or kitty cat! I work remotely and would happily drop in to help working owners give their pup some attention and a needed bathroom break. Excited to love on your pet - please give me a chance! Will not be able to work with animals with fleas - apologies to the pet & owner. Responsible, attentive, and reliable dog or cat sitter ready to assist! I pride myself on being communicative and caring. I work from home now and am available to help before or after work and on most weekends. If staying in your home, as long as there is Wi-Fi and a working space (table & chair), I'm happy to take out pets as often as needed and be around to give them love and attention! While I cannot being pets into my home, I will pay attention to items within their reach in yours. I will monitor while we're outside and will look for potential issues (throw up, etc) to make sure all is well so you are worry free!

About: I've had alot of animals since I was very young. Im part of animal rescue and foster care for animals. Ranging from birds to big dogs I've dealt with and took care of all of them since I was young. I'm about to go to college and would love to take care and play with animals on my free time. I sadly can't have pets in a dorm but I can come and take care of them. I will ask where everything needed is. For example I would like to know how to work the bath. Where the bath supplies are for taking care of the animal. Where their food and dishes are. How much they need. Where the toys are. What can they not eat. Just overall care for them.

Mikayla was fantastic! She took such great care of our dogs while we were away last week. The girls absolutely loved her — they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we got home. She was reliable, communicative, and followed all of their routines perfectly. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so being around them feels second nature to me. I’ve had experience with a wide range of breeds from high energy working dogs like German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois to small companion dogs like Pomeranians, so I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m very attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them company and making them feel safe while you’re away. While I haven’t owned a cat myself, I’ve cared for them multiple times and have always connected well with them. I understand that every pet has their own temperament, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m currently working toward my Pilates certification, (which doesn’t take up much of my time as I only do it for a few hours a week) so I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to caring for pets. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. Whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and wanted to spend more of my time doing something I love while staying active and productive. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific needs so your pet stays in their normal routine :) I’m very attentive to each pet’s behavior and energy level, and adjust care to fit them, whether that means more activity or a calm environment. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean space with plenty of attention, supervision, and regular exercise. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 and I am veterinary technician with a year of experience and I’m planning on getting my license in the fall! I also have some training experience and I have a pittie at home with some behavioral issues so I’m no stranger to difficult dogs! I do work a full time job at a vet clinic but I am available over nights, some weekdays and weekends to either stay with your fur baby or just stop in to let them out and feed them! I unfortunately cannot have dogs come to my house, but I am respectful and cleanly! I don’t mind staying at your house with your dog, cat, or any other animal you may have! I am great at reading animal body language and sticking to your animas routine! Your babies needs will all be met and more with me watching them!

About: Hi, I’m Alex. I’ve been caring for pets for friends and family for years — dogs, cats, and various small animals. I understand that pets have social and emotional needs as much as physical ones, and I make it a priority to give them attention, companionship, and care that matches their personality and routine. I enjoy spending time with cats and making sure they feel secure and engaged, whether that’s playing, cuddling, or simply being present. For dogs, I’m comfortable with both high-energy breeds that need plenty of activity and older pups who do best with a slower pace. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight stays, and I always aim to be reliable, attentive, and consistent so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are in good hands. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit in drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays throughout the week. I like to build my day around the pets I’m caring for - whether that’s making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need or setting aside time to play with cats and check in on them. Having that flexibility lets me give each pet consistent care without feeling rushed. In a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible so pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding on schedule, making sure they have fresh water, taking dogs out for walks or playtime, cleaning litter boxes, and spending quality time with them so they don’t feel lonely. I’m respectful of the home, keep things tidy, and make sure pets are safe and cared for until their family is back.

I also have two dogs of my own, and I spend time taking care of them to the best of their needs! For additional fee, I’d love to draw a photo of your pet! I am currently working part-time and a full time student, and I would love to add your pet to my routine! I love taking walks outside and playing with all animals, so I would love to find the perfect enrichment for your pet! I have a safe, walkable neighborhood to take your fur baby on walks that will be enjoyable for your dog! I also have dog beds and toys for downtime.
