“Jackie is absolutely wonderful!! She takes such great care of our pup when we’re away. The updates and pictures she sends are always fantastic and make us feel better about being away from home. Jackie is the absolute best and the only one we trust to watch Nigel! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jessica has been great with our dogs. We had a few special instructions and she took care of everything we needed. Our dogs get let out twice a week by her, and sometimes she stays longer than we asked. She’s very good at updating our Rover account with all of the details and photos from each visit!”
“Kylie did such an amazing job taking care of my boy. I was so worried to leave him because I hadn’t left him alone before but as soon as I met Kylie I knew he would be in good hands. She provided updates and photos of him and it made me feel better and able to enjoy my vacation. I would highly recommend her!”
“Taylor was a great sitter! She was very responsive even when I first messaged her, and my cat loved her as soon as she walked in my apartment. Also, Taylor was very flexible with my changing travel plans.”
“Bri is just the absolute best!! We are so grateful for her and arrow. My dog is a nervous boy who doesn’t love other people but they are able to bring him out of shell and make him comfortable.”
About: As a dog owner myself, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone’s pet. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels. I enjoy staying active and would love to help give your dog the exercise and attention they need throughout the day.😊 Pet care fits easily into my daily schedule. I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week for walks and drop-in visits. I’m able to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. (Weekends: upon request) Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’ll always pay close attention to your dog’s behavior, surroundings, and individual needs during walks and visits. I provide a calm, caring, and safe environment where your pup can feel comfortable and well cared for. I’ll also follow any specific instructions you provide so you can feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands.
About: I have had dogs my whole life, caring for them is like second nature to me! I currently have two dogs of my own so I understand that they are like apart of our family and I understand the care that comes with owning a dog! My goal is always to ensure that your animals are well taken care of and loved during your time away! I do work a full-time job, however my nights and weekends are free and flexible! I am typically available after 6pm during the week, but I usually have a random day off during the week where I can be available all day! Since I have two pups of my own, I am very familiar with their need to keep routine. I am happy to give any medications needed, put your dog in a crate, walk them outside for a while, whatever it takes to not stray from their routine!
“Jordyn is a MUST HAVE. She was extremely responsive and able to accept my booking request last minute on a holiday! I am so picky when it comes to people visiting my home and fur baby and she checked all the boxes! A+ Jordyn.”
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, so understanding their personalities and needs comes naturally. I've walked and cared for rescue dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels at the dog shelter I've volunteered in. I've also dog sat for friends and family over the years, and have even helped care for Rover clients' dogs on behalf of friends who were sitters. These experiences have taught me how important it is to provide not just basic care, but patience, consistency, and lots of affection. I treat every dog as if they were my own, whether they love long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with good company. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I'm employed full-time, but I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and can work from home when needed to provide attentive care for your pup. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I intend to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. An added bonus is that my wife, who's an even bigger dog lover than I am and has owned dogs throughout her life, is home during the day. That means your pup will have extra companionship, supervision, and lots of affection while staying with us. On weekends, we're both home and can dedicate our full attention to keeping your dog active, happy, and comfortable. The best care comes from keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're already familiar with. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, walking routine, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and any special instructions you provide. If your dog has medications, dietary restrictions, or favorite toys and activities, I'll make sure those needs are met. I enjoy playing with dogs, going on walks, and making sure they get both physical activity and time to relax. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I'll send regular photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away.
“Gabriela is one of the best and most reliable Rovers I’ve ever had. She is always responsive and can take handle last minute changes in schedule. I appreciate her so much, and always takes the best photos of my pup :)”
About: I have grown up and taken care of animals most of my life. I am a reliable care taker who prioritizes communication to give you and your furry friend the best experience I possibly can and beyond. I am currently working part-time which makes my schedule perfect and flexible to help out wherever is needed! I have reliable transportation to get me to and from your furry friend! I am comfortable doing home visits whether that be for a few hours a day or over night. I take pride in my ability to give your furry friend the love and attention they need while you are away!
“Veronica watched our cat & dog for 5 days while we were away, and when we come home our animals were SO happy compared to when we board them or hire someone else! She is lovely to work with too. Thank you so much Veronica!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have been around them for most of my life, so caring for them has always felt natural to me. Over the years, I have also watched my neighbors’ dogs, providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of attention while their owners were away. What sets me apart is that I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s individual personality and routine. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable when their owners are not home, and I will follow your care instructions closely. I am also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your dog is well cared for. I am currently not working leaving me available for stopping in for visits or taking for walks. I love exercise and being outside! To have a companion with me would be great! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. During walks, I will use the leash and equipment you provide, remain aware of our surroundings, avoid unsafe situations, and follow any instructions regarding other dogs, people, traffic, or preferred walking routes. For drop-in visits, I will carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and companionship. I will make sure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed before leaving. I will also respect your home, clean up after your pet as needed, and send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Ashely was incredible! My wife and I used rover for the first time and wanted someone trustworthy that was great with animals. We’re so glad we found Ashely! She too such good care of our 2 cats when we were away and sent is lots of pictures while we were away. She did an amazing job and we will definitely recommend her to friends and family.”
“Carla did a great job watching our three cats. We had a tougher situation needing to separate one from the others but she did an excellent job communicating with us how they were doing and spending time with them!”
About: I recently lost my 13 year old lab who had mobility issues and needed extra help getting around. She also had an immune disorder that required multiple different daily medications. I have rugs throughout my home to ensure paws have good grip walking on the hardwood floors, a help-me up harness for a large dog and a fenced in yard with organic grass to chew on (I don’t use any pesticides). She passed away late last year and would love to continue to care for your dog like it was my own! I usually work from home and spend a lot of free time at home as well. If dogs are staying with me, I would walk them at least twice a day and let them out in the yard multiple times a day. I try to follow a similar schedule that you do with your dog as much as possible (food schedule, walk schedule, ect.). I have clean dog beds and I allow the dogs to sleep up on the couch if they are potty trained. There are no dogs living in my home but sometimes I get multiple requests to watch dogs. Please let me know if you prefer to have your dog(s) be the only dogs in the home during their stay. Also, it helps a ton if you fill out your dog’s full profile and indicate things like if they get along with other dogs or are reactive in certain situations and other things to look out for. Please fill out before a request if you can.
About: Hi! Im Abby! I'm offering daycare, boarding and walks! In Royal oak and the surrounding area. For boarding in my Royal Oak home, I can only accept dogs up to 30 pounds. Thank you for understanding. I’m a lifelong animal lover who knows that pets are family. I provide a peaceful second home where your pup can feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have small shy dogs of my own, so I’m especially experienced with little breeds and understand their unique personalities and quirks. Because of that, I generally provide the best experience for small, lower to medium energy dogs who enjoy a relaxed home environment. I believe in treating every pet with patience, kindness, and the same love and attention I’d want for my own. Whether your dog is staying overnight or just visiting for the day, they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and a consistent routine to help them feel at home. I’m dependable, honest, and committed to keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. My goal is to make every stay a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I allow every pet in my care the time to settle in, relax, and receive attention at their own pace as to keep a stress free environment. My home has a small secure fenced in backyard enclosure where dogs can safely get fresh air and take potty breaks. I always supervise outdoor time closely, and dogs are never left outside unattended we also take long walks to the wooded park across the street. . I keep things calm, secure, and comfortable so your pet can enjoy time outside while still being watched and cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clawson
FANTASTIC! Gary went above and beyond when caring for my beloved pets!! He definitely provided a genuine sense of comfort to me while I was out of town! He was very communicative and I have nothing but positive things to say about my pups' experience with him!
Kat goes above and beyond for our dogs while my partner and I are working long hours! She gives them treats, brings extra toys for them to play with, and generally just gives them a ton of love while she’s visiting. In the pictures she takes, you can see how happy our dogs are when they are being cared for by her. Her schedule is really flexible and she has saved us a couple of times when we’ve had to ask for her help fairly last minute. I’m so glad we found her for our senior pups!
Jillian did an great job watching our dog Pancake, recommend her if you ever need someone to check in on your pet! She was very responsive in messages, and kept us updated on how Pancake was doing ☺️, especially during a bad thunderstorm (and Pancake is afraid of storms) so extra appreciation for her thoughtfulness on keeping our baby as calm as possible during that while we were away!
Kelly has been absolutely wonderful with my pups! She is incredibly thorough, attentive, and genuinely cares about them. I have a lot of specific routines and details that are important to me, and she takes the time to follow every one of them. She is reliable and gives me complete peace of mind knowing my girls are in good hands. I highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for someone who will go above and beyond for their pets!
Katie was amazing with my pup! She came over to meet her before and made sure she was comfortable/set up for the best situation. She was so sweet and kind and was very flexible when I had to add an additional time for check-in. I will definitely be using her again and really appreciated how she was available last minute. Highly recommend for others!
Jessica has been great with our dogs. We had a few special instructions and she took care of everything we needed. Our dogs get let out twice a week by her, and sometimes she stays longer than we asked. She’s very good at updating our Rover account with all of the details and photos from each visit!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clawson 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 Clawson 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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.
To find sitters in Clawson with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
