About: Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and passion for pet care comes from learning pet care from my dad who is police dog trainer. I currently work from home it's a flexible job so l would have plenty time for the pet. Also I would love to go out on walks. I have fenced yard where we can go out play, I have play toys, yummy treats for the fur babies. Also would love to go on walks. I do not take many pets in one service so I can provide more personalized services.
About: I've owned dogs for the past 20 years, first an Australian Shephard, then a yellow Lab. I've also cared for the dogs of friends and family. After the death of my most recent guy, Petey, I decided that I want the companionship of dogs without the vet bills$ I'm now retired from teaching and have all the time in the world to sit, walk, transport and care for dogs. I can accept dogs during the day or night, 7 days a week. Your dogs will be in an open setting in my home. I have a fenced yard so they can play. I live near a park and a riverfront, so long walks can be taken through natural settings. I accept only one or two dogs at a time, depending on the personality and behaviour of the dogs. I have a van that can transport dog to wherever they need to go.
“Jessica is amazing with our new puppy! She was able to accommodate us on short notice, which we really appreciated. She walked him, fed him, played with him, and even introduced him to other little puppies so he could socialize. She greeted me warmly and treated both of us with such kindness. Our pup came home happy and tired from all the fun. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Karen was a great help with Luna when I unexpectedly had to leave the dog home alone for a VERY long day. She came over to give her cuddle and pee breaks and a trip to Barkside, Luna’s home away from home. 💕 Even went the extra mile to clean up a little dog mess. Thanks!!!!!”
“I cannot thank Tammy enough for the amazing care she gave our baby! I was extremely anxious about leaving him at a new home, but she immediately calmed my worries with her kindness and reassurance. She went above and beyond to make him feel at home — even feeding him from the table when he was being picky, letting him snuggle and sleep in her bed, and making sure he had plenty of playtime with her sweet fur babies. I could tell he felt completely safe and loved, and I’m sure he had the best day full of play, cuddles, and comfort. Knowing he was in such loving hands gave me such peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter who will truly treat your fur baby like their own!”
About: I’m currently a student and working from from home and love dogs to my core. I have a 5 year old toy poodle named Mason. He’s so sweet & playful and he’s always looking for another puppy to play with. I have had experience with dogs my entire life, but in college I decided to get one of my own and I have no regrets yet! I will make sure your pet receives endless love and affection, long walks, loads of fun and trips to the dog park to mix and mingle. Safety of your pet is my priority so there’s no need to worry while they’re under my watch. I understand how stressful it can be to find someone you trust with your baby, so I will be sure to keep you updated throughout our day. I enjoy taking photos of my dog and nature so expect pictures updates as well. I am super flexible so for whatever you need, don’t hesitate to ask! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I’m available for daily walks, drop in visits and boarding. I work from home so I have the time and flexibility to care for your pet and give them the attention they need throughout the day. I am very respectful of your space and your dog and their’s. Making sure only do what I am advised to and anything outside of that I’d check with the owner prior.
About: I have taken care of various types of dog babies across many states. I learn quickly about what a dog needs especially when factoring in weather. I work from home most days and run in the evening. Usually long distance runs are in the morning so not inconvenient for night stays. For my home, I have a very spacious dog park and closed in balcony. Also live close to the riverwalk for night walks. There is space in home for medium sized crates if necessary.
About: I’ve been a groomers assistant and bather at a grooming shop and doggie daycare for a few years in past and I have access to a dog bathing suite for $15 for the use and $25 per dog. Blow drying those furry friends coats out! :) I’ve been dog and house sitting for years and I have had a few dogs of my own. I get excited to see every dog and cat I meet, they really make my day. If you’re out of my walking radius and still would like me to care for your pets you can provide transportation fees then I’d be happy to accept the jobs if I’m available that are last minute when you can’t find someone else. This is my only job, caring for pets now. I have worked for over 30 years and I have found pet sitting to be the best retirement gig for my wellbeing. So I’m available quite a bit. I can walk dogs or do house visits for either cats or dogs. I can help with training if you have rules or something you’d like me to help with for your pets. I can also pick up an item you may need from premier pet shop.
“Tara was the best! She provided tons of updates throughout the day and kept my hyper pup very tired with walks and rounds of hide & seek, which is his favourite! Along with updates, I got tons of photos which is something I’m always looking forward to.”
“Jack was great. He watched my dog while we went to a concert at Ford Field. Very flexible with drop off and pick up time as we weren’t sure what time pick up time would be. Highly recommend him! Thanks Jack!”
“Awesome! He really helped me out when I was in a bind. Great with communication, following care instructions, and just being patient with my puppy. I will be sending Otis back to him when I need his help.”
“Lauren was great, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the whole experience. Lauren was so nice and professional, always punctual. Her rate is incredibly fair, too. And my dog, Fern, got two of her fave things while there: to sit with a human and to watch the neighborhood from a window. I now like Rover a lot more than transitional dog day care places, and most of that has to do with Lauren. Will definitely be back.”
“We had a last minute need for a sitter in Detroit and Raeshawn was fantastic! She took Maggie for a nice stroll and stopped into a doggie pool. It was a short bit sweet visit. Thanks so much!”

“Complete peace of mind! That’s the best way to describe our recent 2 week trip overseas. Deepika cared beautifully for our very elderly Golden Retriever and Beagle.

“Kim is one of the most caring and dependable people I know. As a nurse, she’s naturally nurturing, and she treats every pet with love and patience. Kim is amazing with my husky, Luna—who’s high-energy and a bit stubborn! Her calm, loving nature, and attention to detail make her a perfect caregiver.”

Karen was absolutely AMAZING!! I’ll have to admit I am very picky about who I trust to watch our dogs but when we found ourselves in need of a day sitter while on a trip we found Karen. I had never used Rover before and I was quite nervous to leave them with a stranger. Within minutes Karen had eased all of my concerns. Upon arrival she knew the girls names and commented on things she had read on their profiles. She was very observant while watching our dogs explore her apartment to see how they were going to do when we left. She also provided feedback and photos during their time with her. She was also very welcoming of my husband and I and very flexible working around our day. We would absolutely book again with Karen without hesitation.
Rafael was amazing with my dog. He took care of him with ease. Rafael also took my dog for walks which was great exercise. Right before picking my dog up. Rafael made sure to take Columbus out so that he can be comfortable on the drive back home. Rafael would constantly update me with what's going on and would also snap pics of my dog enjoying. Thanks again hermano! Gracias para todos
My pet Ira (10-month-old Vizsla) is a repeat customer through rover. and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the start, Diana was incredibly responsive and attentive to my pet's needs. Ira took the time to understand my dog's routine and preferences, ensuring Ira felt comfortable and secure. During every stay, Diana provided regular updates and adorable photos, which put my mind at ease. My dog came back happy and well-exercised, clearly enjoying the time spent with Diana I highly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet caregiver. I will definitely continue booking with Diana in the future!.
