“Stacy is taking great care of my cat Ziggy when I've been out of town. She's even adjusted visits when my schedule is changed. I recommend booking Stacy as your pet sitter.”
“Ryan is great with our dog Wylder. He drops in over the weekend and takes him for walks/potty breaks. He sends photos of him playing and info on what they did. Wylder definitely seems happier and calmer since Ryan has been dropping in.”
“Stacie took care of our two cats with drop-in visits while we were gone for a week. I fully expected one of our cats to never be seen, but Stacie was able to interact with her every day and even got some pets and play in. This speaks to how well Stacie is with animals. She knew exactly how to handle a shy cat. And her curious sister! She even brought her own toys to play with the cats and quickly clued into the playful one’s interests. When we arrived home, our cats were very happy and didn’t seem a bit frazzled—which has happened upon our return from a week away with other sitters. I am so happy to have found Stacie and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others. She will most definitely be our first choice for future pet sitting needs.”
About: I grew up with cats, fish and hermit crabs. It wasn’t till high school that I learned to love snakes and other reptiles that I’d never interacted with before. My degree is in parks and museum education so I spent much of my time at our nature center caring for all the animals we kept. I’ve been actively pet sitting since college. I have spent many years caring for children and pets in between my jobs in the film & TV industry. I work full time for a few weeks at a time and then I have a week or so off. In most recent years that has looked like nannying and dog /cat sitting through word of mouth. So new to the app way of doing this but not new to pet sitting. I’m excited to meet more people and the pets they love. I’m pictured with my snake named Alfredo. I work in film and TV and will be between projects for 1-5 weeks at a time. I can’t take any pet sitting while on a project but my days are fully flexible and available when I’m not. Following owner’s instructions on pet care and keeping them updated throughout the time of care. Having them provide emergency contacts for veterinary care, just in case.
“Morgan was the perfect pet sitter- our cat was better than when we left him! She truly cares for the pets and is extremely responsive/ communicative! Will definitely use Morgan again!”
“Scar was so patient and amazing with our anxious dog, Tofu. Great, timely updates and pictures left us resassured that Tofu was being well cared for - we particularly appreciated Scar's humor about being generally ignored and/or barely tolerated by Tofu. Would definitely recommend for any pet sitting needs.”

About: I’ve been a proud dog mom for over 10 years and have spent my life around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Being with dogs comes naturally to me, and I genuinely love getting to know what makes each pup unique. I’m always learning and adapting to your dog’s individual needs, because providing loving, attentive care is my top priority. When I’m caring for your dog, whether we’re playing, walking, or just hanging out, my focus is fully on making them feel happy, safe, and loved. I’m more than happy to take your pup to the dog park for fresh air, exercise, and social time with other dogs while you’re away. I also have a dog of my own, my “biological child”, a 6 year old black Lab mix who’s still full of energy and keeps life fun and active. I work as a photographer, which means I’m home about 80% of the time. This gives me great flexibility for drop-in visits and allows me to accommodate last minute bookings when life gets busy or plans change. When caring for your pup, I aim to keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. Whether that means walks, trips to the dog park, or sticking to the activities they already love, I’m happy to follow what works best for them so they feel right at home. I work as a photographer, which means I’m home about 80% of the time. I typically work 1 wedding every weekend and I will be out of the home for about 6-8 hours. Every other day I will be working from home. This makes tailoring my schedule to fit your pups need very easy for me. I live in a wooded area that has a lot of grass, which is perfect for those long (leashed) walks. I do have a dog of my own, Leia, who can be a great companion to your pup while you are away. My condo is a 2BD (1200 sq ft) which provides ample room for your pet to explore. There is even a balcony :) I also have a crate for Leia and she is crate trained, in the event your dog needs a break from her.
About: We were lucky to have two amazing dogs for 15 and 16 years, caring for them from playful puppyhood all the way through their senior years—including supporting one through cancer. They’ve since passed, and we truly miss having that love and energy in our home. Because of our experience, we’re comfortable and equipped to care for dogs at every stage of life. More than anything, we understand how much your pups mean to you, and we’ll give them the same love, attention, and care we gave our own. I work from home full time, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. Most weekends we spend time at home playing in our fenced in backyard. At my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with a fenced-in backyard for play and potty breaks. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. Crates are available if needed, and I make sure pups get plenty of love, attention, and snuggle time. When visiting a client’s home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s usual schedule to keep them comfortable. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions so your dog feels safe and loved in their own environment.
“Jennifer saved the day when our regular dog walker went on vacation. She met with us first to better understand Ali's history. We appreciated that greatly, plus her follow through after each visit was helpful. She also helped us care for our kitty, Whisker, while we were away during the same period. All our pets were content and happy when we returned home. We would highly recommend Jennifer.”
About: I've basically been surrounded by pets since the day I was born. I grew up with cats and dogs, with four cats and a dog currently living in my home. I've helped out taking care of pets since I was a kid, but have been pet sitting for about 6 years now. I'm always willing to help out! I have a pretty flexible schedule and I'm frequently able to help take care of pets. I love to stay active, so dog (or cat!) walking would be great for me and your pet! Because I have 5 animals at home, pet sitting in a client's home would be preferred. I'm very clean and organized, so your house will be in good hands! I can help out with any tasks asked of me.
About: I absolutely adore dogs—perhaps even more than most people! While that may sound like a joke, it’s also quite true! As a proud pet parent, I understand the challenges of leaving my furry companions at home when work or travel calls. I reside in a house with a fenced yard and a dog door, making it a perfect space for my two playful puggles, who enjoy socializing with other pups. Having grown up with Great Danes and a hefty 95-pound Dalmatian, I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I’ve also cared for senior dogs and am experienced in administering medications. Please share your dog's routines, triggers, and favorite activities with me, so I can ensure they receive the best care while you are away. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! My dogs are my world. In everything I do, I consider their needs. We keep a pretty consistent 2x feeding schedule. And Whiskey will keep me to it, don't you worry. They get their exercise in through playing throughout the day. I'm currently working from home. They have access to a dog door (except when gardeners are here) so they never have to wait to potty.
“Tory was wonderful! So pleasant, communicated well, and our cats loved her! One of our cats usually hides when a sitter comes over, but she was all over Tory -- very good stamp of approval.”
About: Welcome to my page! I'm Crystal I have experience in pet care since an early age. I've had experiences with Cats, Dogs, Rabbits, Birds, and even Fish. As a previous pet owner, I not only cared for my pets but others as well from walks, drop-ins, and boarding in the client's home. I've been doing pet care for many years and well for me our animals( including yours) are all treated as family. I just recently graduated from college with a lot of downtime and would love to spend some quality time with your pet(s). My availability at the moment is Monday - Friday from 10 am to 8 pm and boarding in the client's home on weekends. I am also open to doggy daycare in the client's home. Depending on the client's home fur baby will be allowed access to all areas provided by the owner and accompanied by a caregiver (myself) when outside. I have a walkable neighborhood with quick access to a dog park.
Clarkston dog parents share their Rover experiences
Couldn’t recommend Elizabeth enough! She was watched my dog and 2 cats while I traveled internationally. She was incredibly accommodating and communicative. This was our first time leaving our dog for so long and she did a wonderful job of making him feel comfortable and relaxed. One of my cats also is usually incredibly shy around strangers and Elizabeth is the only sitter I’ve used from Rover who he comes out for. Our flight got delayed and Elizabeth was very accommodating to the change in the schedule. We are so appreciative!
Micah was fantastic, we had a great experience and highly recommend for any dog watching needs! We appreciated the pictures and updates from Micah and trusted that our dogs would be well taken care of, which they were. Micah was very attentive to the dogs and their needs, our expectations were exceeded!!
Benjamin was absolutely wonderful with Blu and Puddin! From the very first message he was communicative, professional, and genuinely caring. It's not easy finding someone you can trust with a high-energy Husky AND a 13-year-old teacup Yorkie, but Ben handled both of them with ease. He followed all of our care instructions perfectly and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Puddin can be a delicate little lady and Blu keeps you on your toes, but Ben took it all in stride. We came home to two happy, well cared for pups and that says everything. We will definitely be booking with Ben again; highly recommend! 🐾
I hate to brag on her because that books her calendar and makes reservations tight. However, there is no way to say anything contradictory. Sarah has become part of our family. I totally trust her with my fur babies. I think my cat loves her more than me sometimes. And she is very attentive to any changes. Like this visit she knew something was up when my dog didn’t eat the last day. She notified me and made an extra visit to come to check her condition. She is proactive when anything is abnormal. Not only does she notify me but offers suggestion on what to do. My babies are seniors like me now and she adjust their activity as needed. I could write a book on how wonderful, loving & caring Sarah has and continues to be. I am so glad Sarah came into our lives. My fur babies say 5 stars are not enough. They see her as a special Aunt that has always been there for them, loves on them and makes them happy. Oh the eating problem turned out that my dog was missing me. Since I retired we are together all the time. Once I brought my suitcase inside she ate all her food. Nice to know that my dog loves me that much and not just Sarah ❤️
Faith is amazing with our two boys (13YO Shiba Inu and 8YO GSD/hound mix)! Especially the Shiba, who can be a little stubborn. But for her, he’s his best self, and even lets her brush out his coat! Faith is our go-to and makes leaving our pups home so much easier on us, as we don’t need to worry about their health, safety, or happiness!
Again Ms. Cat did an amazing job with my 2 babies. She is very attentive with them and knows each of their personalities really well. The biggest struggle for me is ensuring that my older dog, Walker, could get his medication. We talking through his needs each day, twice a day and she had no issues administering his eye drops. When I arrived home they were both comfortable and not stressed as I have experienced with other sitters.
Can’t say enough good things about Meredith! She is super reliable and communicative and just does such a great job with my 2 cats and bulldog. Wish I could give her another star for crawling through one of my windows to get in my house when the door was jammed. I can always count on her!!
We’ve used Elisabeth in the past and we had such a great experience we used her three times this week! My wife went out of town and I needed help making sure my two dogs got a midday potty break and play time. When I reached out to Elisabeth to see if she could help, she answered me kindly and quickly! Each of the three days Elisabeth was on time, provided me with thorough updates and sent lots of good pictures. She was very sweet with our dogs! Elisabeth is great!
Bindi - my high-energy, somewhat skittish Italian greyhound - absolutely adores Jeanmarie! Bindi immediately felt comfortable both playing with and curling up next to Jeanmarie, and that is a first. I can't leave Bindi with just anyone, but I am confident in Jeanmarie's skills. She's got the magic touch!
