About: I have taken care of dogs for years now. I am very hands-on with training my pups. I am very active and reliable. I like being up early and getting the day started. I have experience with very large breeds and tea cup breeds! At home I have a Bernese Mountain Dog puppy, and a German Shepherd. I enjoy all animals and animals usually love me. I do not mind the weather conditions of Michigan and have never called off from any job. I am good at communicating and if there is ever any issues I would ensure you know right away. I love other people’s animals like they are my own and would not have any issues with high maintenance, or dogs with medical needs. You will not be disappointed if you choose me to look after your fur babies. I’m currently a nursing student at Monroe County Community College, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m able to work around your pet’s needs. I have 2 rabbits that I care for daily, they are free-range and act just like cats! I always ensure my pups at home are getting the right amount of activity weather it is just throwing the ball or going for a run. I care for every pet like they’re my own, keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy while following their normal routine. I always make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean space, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to follow any special instructions or needs your pet may have. 🐾❤️ My student nurse experience helps with passing meds, giving injections, and everything in between for pets that’s need a little extra care!

About: Located in MONROE Hi, I grew up in a home that did dog boarding, I've literally been around this my whole life. I Foster rescue dogs. I can potty train, teach tricks, work on leash skills and door manners. I have toys treats and a big yard. My house is near the lake and we take them for walks multiple times a day. My neighbors are dog trainers or fellow pet lovers. If you need a safe place to keep your pup during work or over vacation we might be the right fit for you. I have an adopted Pitbull who is literally the friendliest dog in the entire world and great with other dogs. If your dog needs to be the only dog around our home might not be ideal. Just being honest. I want us both to have the best experience possible. Meet and greets are amazing to make sure we are on the same page and to make sure all parties involved get along as well. We only offer dog walks and drop ins locally as it's to costly to do that outside of the immediate area. If outside of the Monroe are please advise. My husband and I are both not working. We have all the free time to spend with your pet that you could want. We could do holidays weekends overnights. If there is something you'd like me to work on with your pup let me know! I have a large fenced in back yard in a dog friendly beach community. We take our dog on morning and evening walks with the addition of play time in the yard or inside if it's raining. We have treats toys and space to relax. I have toys for multiple chewing needs - super chewers or tiny nibbles. I have lots of free time and just want to help where I can.

About: What sets me apart is how much genuine love and care I have for animals. I don’t see pet sitting as just a job—I truly enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m very attentive to their individual personalities and needs, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I work a part-time job with a flexible schedule that changes from week to week. This gives me plenty of time to provide your pets with the attention, love, cuddles, and companionship they deserve. I am a huge animal lover and will always make sure your pets are cared for properly and treated with kindness. I am gentle, patient, and comfortable around all types of animals. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority, and I would never intentionally put an animal in harm’s way

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs since I was a child. Each dog is the best dog and deserves the entire world. I will treat yours as if they are my own. They are precious and incredible creatures that we should cherish. I’ve fostered and cared for dogs from puppies to elderly dogs with significant health issues and loved them all. I work part time so I am flexible and happy to spend time with your creature friends whenever is convenient. Just let me know what times are best and we will work it out. I am happy to follow all house rules and care for your dog in whatever way you would like me to. Walks and playtime are always a joy.

About: Hi, my names Madison! I am 24 years old. My fiancée & I own a house in Newport & we would love to open it up for dog sitting during the days of the week that I am home! I have experience caring for cats and dogs of various ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and happy to follow any special instructions regarding medications, feeding schedules, exercise routines, or other unique needs. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you & your pets soon 💕 I’m currently working full time but will go remote in September 2-3 days a week so I am looking for something fun to do that will occupy my time while I am home :) We also have 2 cats that we love with our entire hearts 🫶🏼 My boyfriend & I have fostered through a local rescue and have had 5 foster dogs so we treat them as they are our own when they come into our home. They get lots of love, food, walks and attention before they go off to their new home ! I will do the same for your pup 💕 My boyfriend currently works full time out of the house so care will primarily be with myself during the day & evening!

About: There’s nothing more stressful than finding someone to take care of your pets while your away. As a member of your family, you want to know that they will be well taken care of while you’re away. Let me give you peace of mind knowing that your animals are being taken care of, the way you would. As a owner of two dogs, I know how to properly care for animals. I love all animals, and there’s nothing I like more, than knowing that your pets are safe and being taken care of while you’re away. I would give your pets the same care, love and affection that I would give my own. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets. I currently work part time. So I have a very flexible schedule. Lots of time for checkins and walks. Does your pet like looks of potty breaks. No problem. I’m happy to let them out as much as needed. My home has a 6ft privacy fence. My yard is completely enclosed. I always monitor the dogs from the window or go out with them. I also have two very friendly pups.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends probably since I was 16. From my friends in Ohio, to those closer to home. People rely on me to be there. I’m empathic and ready to take care of your pet! I work from home so my schedule is a bit flexible. I have a vehicle in the city so that helps too! I look forward! I follow rules and directions very well. I have the most experience with an aging dog who’s 14 but also lived with a dog that really is more of a shadow! Willing to accommodate the needs of the dog within means.

About: Hi! I’m Jaelyn (aka Jae the Fur Nanny 🐾) I’m a full-time pet sitter, which means your fur baby gets 24/7 care, attention, and supervision while they’re with me. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 6 years old and have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and small animals. From energetic puppies to shy or sensitive pets, I take the time to understand each animal’s personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home. ✨ What you can expect with me: • Full-time care (I’m home most/all of the day) • Flexible routines based on your pet’s needs • Plenty of love, playtime, and attention • A calm, cozy environment where pets can relax • Consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing I typically allow pets to free roam, but I also have crates available if that’s what your pet is used to or if you prefer it. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. 💗 My approach: I treat every pet like family. When your pet stays with me, they’re not just being watched—they’re being cared for, loved, and understood. I’m very responsive and easy to reach, and I’m always happy to answer questions or provide updates. Before booking, I’d love to know about: •Your pet’s personality •Any triggers or special needs •How they do around other animals This information helps me give them the best and safest experience possible ✨ I’m so grateful for the opportunity to care for your pet and would love to meet you both! 🐶💕 I am ALWAYS AVAILABLE 💞 I do this full time so your fur baby will have my care 24/7. I always try to be flexible & I am very easy to reach for the most part. I tend to allow them free range of the apartment but it is up to you as the parent on what you feel is best. If needed I have different crate sizes available if your fur baby feels more comfortable sleeping that way. Otherwise they are allowed to sleep wherever they please.

About: Hi! I’m TJ (they/he) Since joining Rover in 2022, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, multi-pet households, and even a bearded dragon. I also have two cats of my own and regularly care for 3 dogs and 4 cats during the week, so pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. Through my experience, I’ve developed a thoughtful and adaptable approach to caring for pets with different personalities, comfort levels, and energy levels. Whether that means keeping up with feeding routines, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box care, playtime, treats, or helping a pet settle down and feel comfortable, I always try to adjust my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience with overnight stays and caring for both dogs and cats in the same home. I pay close attention to behavior and routine, keep the environment clean and low-stress, and communicate with owners if anything comes up so I can care for their pets the way they prefer. I do work late nights most of the week, but I strive to keep my schedule as flexible as possible :) I approach every booking with the same care and dedication I’d want for my own pets, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Please note that while my legal name appears on my profile, I prefer to go by TJ. I’m excited to meet your pets and provide them with personalized, dependable care! I always make sure to spend as much time with my pets as possible and take care of their needs to let them know they are loved:) I have two cats of my own, so I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and secure in their environment. Caring for them is part of my everyday routine, from feeding and fresh water to litter box care, attention, and making sure they feel at ease in their space. I’ve also been regularly caring for 3 dogs and 4 cats during the week since July 2025, so I understand the importance of following each pet’s routine carefully and providing dependable, attentive care while their owners are away.

About: As a 31 year old who's owned dogs his entire life, I've learned dog behaviour in and out, while I don't consider myself a trainer, the breeds I've owned and work with include hounds, German Shepard/Mixes, Pitbulls, Huskies, etc, I can offer basic walks around your area OR provide a speciality trail hiking experience with your pup! They will be cleaned and checked for fleas and ticks every time, and healthy exhaustion is guaranteed! My entire life I have owned high energy dogs, as a lover of nature I always learned towards dogs that could hike with me through the woods in Rain, Snow or sunshine, after doing it for years for my pups, I want to give other puppies and even senior dogs that feeling of freedom in nature! If your dog needs a companion, my German Shepard Rita can join! If your dog prefers solo hikes or hikes with their siblings that is okay as well! I treat all pets like my own children, same as yours!

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
