About: I have taken care of a variety of animals my entire life. Growing up on several acres, we had multiple types of animals. They ranged from dogs to cats to chickens and more! It was always our jobs to help with the care of them. In my adulthood, I have always taken on side work helping with friends and families pets, as well as being hired through various websites. I absolutely love spending time with cats and dogs. I have one each of my own. I understand how truly important they are and always strive for the best care possible, as that is what I’d expect for my own when I need the help! I do work part time as a housekeeper. That is a pretty flexible job and I have a lot of availability in my schedule. Depending on what and when care is needed, I am able to stop in prior to going to my job, after (I’m usually done late morning/early afternoon), and evenings. My schedule changes a lot but it is very flexible! I will always do my very best to care for your fur baby. They deserve it, and you deserve knowing and trusting that I will!
“I highly recommend Margaret. I have an energetic puppy. Margaret gave her a wonderful walk every day rain or shine, and played tug-of-war (my puppy's favorite!) with her reamining time. She communicated with me after every visit and sent me videos of the dog walks. I will absolutely use Margaret again. Very professional.”
“Angela is amazing and did a wonderful job! She pays attention to details and goes above and beyond. I will definitely use her again. Thanks for making everything worry free on my vacation Angela!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities for years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while away. I’m patient, reliable, attentive, and genuinely love animals. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, shy pets, and senior animals who need extra care and attention. If you’re looking for someone you can leave your pets with and truly not have to worry about while you’re away, look no further. I own my own business, so I make my own hours. If I am away during the day, it is for a very short period of time. I keep my own animals on a very predictable schedule. I have a fully fenced in yard and a clean, pet-friendly home where animals are treated like family. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and love while sticking to their normal routines as closely as possible. In clients’ homes, I’m respectful, reliable, and attentive to both the pets and the home. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

Communication is important to me, so expect pictures and updates :) I work from home and have a very flexible schedule.

About: I have 5 cats of my own and am very well versed in all cats quirks and personalities. I have a lot of understanding of cat behavior and have a soft spot for all kitties. Weather your cat is standoffish, a social butterfly, a scardy cat, or even a little territorial, I have it handled! I understand cats can have weird needs or care instructions and am willing to do whatever to make your kitty feel safe and cared for. In addition, I have grown up around lot of dogs and understand canine behavior. My family has had a medium size dog since I was 8 and I did most of her training from crate training to teaching her to sit. I am willing to do whatever your dog needs from walks, to playing fetch/exercising, as well as drop by visits or weekend stays. I have a normal 9-5 job Monday through Friday but am able to do weekday visits in the morning and/or evening depending on what your feline requires (weather it be visits before I go to work, after I get off, or later in the night). I will work with you to fit your pet into my schedule and make sure they receive exactly the care they need, weather that's a drop in once a day or longer visits a couple times a day. On weekends I am available around the clock for whatever your kitty may need! I am willing to clean litter boxes, change water dishes, provide feedings, clean food bowls, provide enrichment/play time, perform health monitoring, administer any medications necessary, or any other requests to keep your cats safe and well cared for! I have a background with sick animals and have previously administered daily shots or oral medications to my own pets, so I am able to provide a wide range of medical care if your cat requires such.

Pet care is a positive addition to my weekly routine because I love going on walks, being active, and having fluffy companions to show love to!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkston
Alicia was absolutely awesome! She came to do a meet and greet a few days before our trip and we knew instantly she was a good fit for our pups. She gave us great updates with the cutest photos; we felt very confident that our doggies were being taken good care of while we were away. Would highly recommend her!
Erin is very kind and loving with our dog. She is respectful of our home, punctual and communicative during her visits with photos and updates. I have requested her several times for drop ins and would definitely recommend her. She deserves the 5 star rating!
Natasha D. is such a dog lover. Mertz adores her. She actually pays attention to my dog and isn’t on her phone the entire visit. She’s engaging and plays with him!! I would highly recommend her! I was looking for a Freind for him too not just a body to let him out and pee! Natasha D. Is it!! 😊

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clarkston stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Clarkston choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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