“Steven and Linda, you guys are the best! Thank you for taking great care of our two Boxers! This is our first experience using Rover and we struck gold. Before we ever booked, they came over for about 45 minutes and met our dogs, asked questions about the routine, and we all made sure we were comfortable. Once we booked, they sent us pictures and were communicative the whole time. They took great care of our dogs and our house. They truly went the extra mile. When we came home from our travels, our house was cleaner than when we left! And most importantly, our furry ones were happy and healthy. Steven and Linda are delightful. You would be lucky to have them.”

“Sylvie made time to do a trial overnight with our nervous pup and she did great with him! Highly recommend her if you are searching for a reliable pet sitter you can trust.”
“We have had Randi several times to stay at our house with our senior dog Ellie. Randi takes better care of Ellie than we do! She is very good at giving Ellie all of her different medications and taking her out for several walks during the day, she pays attention to exactly how Ellie is feeling and adjusts her care accordingly. She has great advice on healthy snacks for Ellie and non toxic skin care. She truly cares for our dog and we are grateful to know she is in good hands while we are away! Randi is also great with communication, even if I don’t always respond, she still sends me lots of pictures and updates so I know what’s going on. Thank you Randi!!!”

“Destiny is the best rover sitter! She sent tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Our kitty had the best time and she left our house so clean! So thankful and will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“I was in a last minute pinch for a weekend trip and Josh came through. Josh took great care of my two pets and made sure they were well taken care of and loved. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a sitter.”

“Caelan was wonderful! Very responsive to messages and when our travel plans got delayed and canceled she could not have been more understanding and willing to help! We came home to a happy dog and a happy house! Will definitely book again. Thanks Caelan!”

“This was our first time having a house sitter for our very anxious rescue dog but it helped so much knowing Breanna was looking after her and keeping her safe. Breanna is so patient and is incredible at working with dogs with special needs.”

“I sincerely cannot recommend Meghan highly enough! Don't hesitate to book with her if she is available. Meghan stayed with my puppy Farley for 3 nights while I was out of town with family and truly made it the easiest and most reassuring experience I could ask for as a first-time pet parent. She handled Farley's routine effortlessly, providing regular updates and the sweetest pictures to let me know he was being well taken care of at all times. Her communication and professionalism from the moment I booked to the moment she left at the end of her stay was more than I could've ever expected. 12/10 experience, will absolutely book again if both of our schedules permit :)”


About: I have the patience to work with most breeds but the larger ones are my favorite. I’ve had or lived with pets my entire life and will care for yours like it’s my own. Walks, feedings, even baths if they’re up for it! I’m no dog specialist, just someone who genuinely enjoys they’re company. If your dog needs any accommodations (extra loving!) I’ll do my best to meet your expectation. I understand trusting a stranger with your pet can be unnerving but I promise to provide the best service I can. Your dog won’t even know you’re gone! But hey no pressure, choose what’s best for you and your pet. Whether that’s me or someone else, if you’re happy I’m happy. But hopefully you choose me! I’m moving back to Michigan this summer and will not start my full-time position until August. So I have a pretty flexible schedule until then and I would love to fill my time loving on some fluffy babies! I will care for your pet in your home and do all that you have instructed. I know it could be a little stressful to leave your dog and they may worry, but I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and at ease.
“Lauri was amazing. She was wonderful with my dogs, including my senior who has health issues and takes medications. She gave me frequent, comprehensive updates, and sent plenty of much-appreciated photos of my fur babies (and even of my aquarium and flowers). She took excellent care of the household generally, followed all my instructions/requests, and was very professional and communicative. The dogs were lucky to have her. I'll call on her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’m an ER nurse and paramedic looking to spend time playing, walking and caring for pets. Or house sitting. I typically am free 3-4 days a week as I work 3-12 hour shifts a week at the hospital. Naturally, I’m very compassionate and care very deeply about living beings. I also have had cats and dogs of my own. I’m 58, dependable, have my own car and am active. I work 3 days a week in the ER. Which leave 4 days a week to pet sit and walk dogs! I have a Honda Fit that I am not fussy about, a dog is welcome to take a ride to Belle Isle or to the dog park! Ideally I would sit in your home, but I’m sure if your dog or cat is friendly my family would love to have them overnight!
“Cheryl is wonderful and very kind. Our dog Bella takes time to warm up to people and she didn’t have a problem warming up to Cheryl and snuggling on the couch with her. I already have her booked to house sit for us before the end of the year. Thank you for your care of our pack, Cheryl!”

“Khelsi was fantastic - highly communicative, prompt, and so warm and cuddly with the dogs. I also appreciated that she came through on short notice. We definitely hope to work with Khelsi again!”

“Brandi stayed with our two dogs for a week. She did a wonderful job. She kept us informed everyday and sent lots of videos and pics of our dogs. She was very flexible and supportive during a crazy time… our house was being renovated and we were in the middle of a move. Our return flights were delayed and Brandi worked with to assure our dogs were going to be cared for even if our flight was canceled. Brandi is a Star!”

“Carly really helped us out with a last minute, week long stay at our house to watch our dog. She was professional and very good at communicating! We loved getting photos and updates from her to reassure us that Kona was doing well. Carly is wonderful and we will be using her in the future!”
About: professionally, I have taken care of pets for the last 3 years, ranging from dogs to cats to birds to lizards, with care ranging from normal sittings to walks, to overnight work as well. Personally, I have taken care of pets my whole life, currently either six cats and a big dog (and a gecko). Dogs have always been drawn to me it seems, with all of them (save for one 😅) growing to love me in time. Let me add your pet to that list! I am as malleable as the client needs me to be. Obviously that can change around holidays sometimes, but generally I am super available and almost always by my phone if needed. I unfortunately cannot offer boardings as I have a dog and that would not be fair to her. However, when I do sittings, especially overnight ones, my goal is to leave the pet parent’s as close to how it looked when I got there.

Breanna sat for my 2 dogs while we were on vacation for 5 days. She stayed at our house and everything went great. She kept us updated with daily pictures, which was reassuring! I will definitely use her again and refer her to friends and family! Thank you Breanna!!
Brit was an absolute gem of a dog sitter while caring for our sweet Maybelle. From the moment she stepped in, it was clear that she approaches her work with remarkable thoughtfulness and heart. She didn’t just “watch” Maybelle — she truly cared for her, paying close attention to her routines, her little quirks, and all the small details that make her who she is. Brit kept us updated and gave us such peace of mind, which is priceless when you’re away from your beloved pet. It felt like Maybelle wasn’t simply being looked after — she was being genuinely cherished. And as if that weren’t enough, we returned home to a house that was beautifully tidied and welcoming. There’s something so comforting about walking back into a calm, cared-for space after time away, and Brit made that happen effortlessly. We’re beyond happy with her care and can’t recommend her enough. She treats both pets and homes with the same warmth and respect as if they were her very own — and that makes all the difference.

Lauren was wonderful while watching our baby boy, Astro. She gave us plenty of updates and pictures during the weekend. It was a weight off our shoulders to have someone in our own home watching our dog, so we knew he was comfortable and in his own environment. Lauren followed instructions and left our house nice and clean. We would definitely use Lauren again for any dog watching needs in the future.
