Paul & Kelly took excellent care of Dewey and were easy to work with. I came over before my trip for a meet & greet and they were very reassuring. I got regular updates & pictures. Dewey loved the big yard & got lots of gentle attention & play time from the Boys.

Luke and his family went above and beyond caring for our Yogi. They have a large fenced in backyard and a host of other animal friends that Yogi fell in love with. Our Yogi has a tendency to pee on himself vs the ground and they bathed him before pickup. My toddler wouldn’t stop asking us to smell the dog on the way home. Thank you Luke and family! We will use you every time we need to head West to Wisconsin.

Christina is awesome. She is super flexible and great with the pets. She really loves animals and went above and beyond to make sure my huge great Pyrenees was well taken care of and stayed out of trouble. She has a great fenced in backyard and her property is basically an animal palace. Would definitely recommend!!

Debra did an awesome job with our dog who wasn’t feeling the best. She treated him well and was able to manage his quirks. I would not hesitate to use her as a dog sitter. She will treat your dogs like gold. Use Debra for your sitting needs.

Tiffani was great to work with! She was very responsive and flexible when we had to adjust our pick up time. Our dog was exhausted (in a good way!) when we picked him up. You can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches.

Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!

Bradly was great to work with. He was caring and kind with our two large dogs and he sent photos and updates during their entire stay with him. We’d be happy to recommend him to others in the Rover community that need pet care in the SW Michigan area! Thank you Bradly :)

If I could leave 10 stars I would! Clara was wonderful and Maddie was so happy playing with all her new friends. Clara’s property is gorgeous, the dogs have so much room to run and play and her cute hotel was spacious, clean and air conditioned. Thank you so much Clara! We can’t wait to see you again

Hanna and her family made Charlie feel right at home! They accepted his stinky shoe fetish and his desire for hands constantly petting with absolute open arms (his favorite). Her two fur babies welcomed him and left him absolutely exhausted and maybe a little depressed that there’s no one to play with in his own backyard. We will definitely be rebooking again! Thank you!

My Buddy had such an amazing time with Emily & Ryan and their 2 fur babies! They were so kind and accommodating when I had to bump the time up for our meet and greet. I believe we have found Buddy a new home away from home!!! Thanks again guys you are amazing and I can’t wait to bring him back :).

Lynn is an absolute Godsend! She provided me multiple updates daily including photos. She offered food and health recommendations as well as resources to review and research. Lynn pampered and spoiled ChiChi during our nearly weeklong vacation. I would trust her with my own life, not just my dog’s life. She’s that darn good! I will only use her from now on and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!! Thank you again Lynn!!! 🫶🏼

Josie was wonderful! She sent regular updates and pictures of our rambunctious little pooch while we were out of town, and I fully trusted that Boomer was in responsible and caring hands while we were away - it appeared he had a blast at their house based on the pictures I received!! We will definitely book with Josie again in the future :)

About: I'm willing to go above and beyond to make sure your pet is being taken care of my someone who is going to treat them like they are their own. Right now I'm more then willing to work with any schedule that helps benefit us both. I'm willing to make a drive if that's what's needed. I treat the pet and the owners stuff as if it's everything. I might clean up a bit of there's small stuff needed done. I'll clean up messes that are caused by any accidents in the home.

We are very happy with the support and willingness Jeremiah gave my husband and me for our dog. He took Xabela in for us at night, sent us photos of Xabela every day, and agreed to give her back to us late at night. Xabela was very well cared for during the days we had her. We would definitely trust Jeremiah with our beloved Xabela again. Thank you for everything!

Julie and Joe were fantastic with my Snoopy. Snoopy had a anxiety problem and they were so warm and taken great care of dog. They sent pictures and our family loved to see that he is doing great and having fun at their house. I highly recommend them and will book again with them!

Kyle took care of our dog for an entire month while we were away on a trip, and he did an absolutely fantastic job. Our dog has separation anxiety and needs a lot of attention, but Kyle went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable. He gave her plenty of love and treats - she was clearly happy and well cared for in his home. His house has a spacious, fenced backyard where the dogs can run and play freely. We had a previous bad experience of our dog being in a Pet Hotel (which by the way was twice as expensive as Rovers), as she was very sick and unhappy when we took her back. However, with Kyle it was different, as she was as happy and healthy as she is with us when we took her back. We are so grateful for Kyle’s care and will definitely reach out to him for any future trips. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter!
