“Becky did a fantastic job checking in on our cats! She did exactly what we needed and treated our pets very well! She is great to work with, is very personable, and communicates quickly. Will definitely book again!”


About: There is no amount of words that I can use to describe my passion for our four legged furry friends. Each one of us chooses a dog based off of our characteristics.I love seeing the human-dog relationship. My dog Scout is now 8 and a rescued pure bred mutt! She is one of a kind. Dogs bring out my passion, they are such smart creatures. It is a blessing the Lord created them because I can not imagine a world without our precious friends in our lives. My love for dogs started when I was six, my grandma had a beautiful collie named Shadow, but I was his shadow: I followed him absolutely everywhere. I remember each christmas I would fall asleep with him under the christmas tree. Having to put him down was honestly the hardest and most saddening events that I can remember. They work their way into our hearts and families. I have taken care of many breeds of dogs from the smallest pomeranian to Chief the great dane! They do get quite pampered care with me I have to say. The owners I work with have all loved the care and passion I put into taking individual care of each other pets. Its like taking care of a child. No child is the same. You have to love and treat them each in their own special way to make them feel at home and protected. Every animal deserves the utmost care! I take pride in being able to say I truly love to make every dogs day a pampered one! I currently am working part time in my evenings as a caregiver for two young adults with physical and cognitive disabilities. So my day schedule is pretty open. Thursdays I work 10 to 7 but can work in a break in the day for your dog and then just feed before or after work. My dog scout is a princess, not overly fond of sharing her space, but that comes from her past as a rescue. So I am willing to care for your pup in their home environment. Helping them feel safe and loved when owners are away.

About: Hi, I am your pet's next best friend! My friends even call me Snow White because I adore animals of all sizes. I have spent my whole life around dogs and have years of hands-on experience with cats, birds, and small pets. As a rescue volunteer, I have fostered and trained many dogs. Your pet's safety, health, and happiness are my top goals. I promise to love them like my own and send plenty of fun photo updates! I cannot wait to meet your fur babies! Send a message today to book a meet-and-greet. I typically have a very flexible daily schedule, so I am able to tailor your pets care for their specific needs! I'm usually available daily between 10 am-8 pm. I understand that safety is your top priority for your pet when leaving them with me. I have experience working with many different types of animal temperaments. I aim to keep pets calm, happy, and stress-free so we don’t find ourselves in an unsafe position.
“Ramya was wonderful! She did drop in visits with my cat for the weekend. She was responsive, sent great updates with pictures, and my cat really loved her! I would absolutely book with her again.”

“Stephanie did a fantastic job taking care of our two large dogs! She spent quality time with them, sent us pictures every day, took care of any messes and left our house nice and clean! I would highly recommend Stephanie and we will definitely call in her again.”


“Lauren did a fantastic job caring for our cats! I can see they were well fed and played with while we were away. Lauren was very communicative and treated our home with care. I highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for them is second nature to me. I am able to do basic grooming as well as bathing! I helped raise my family's current dog, taking her on walks as well as training her. I am not a certified trainer, but I had fun training her and found it relatively easy! I have experience with both large/extra large dogs as well as small dogs, with varying activity levels. I am currently home from college for summer break. I have church on Sunday mornings as well as karate Monday evenings, but other than that I am free to care for your fur babies! I am open and willing to adapt to the needs of your fur babies to the best of my ability. I have experience with fenced in yards and e-collars/invisible fences.
“Noah is an "Exceptional" Young Man! He is very caring my Dog "Loved" him from the first meet and greet. Noah was very punctual and always made sure my dog had "Everything"he needed each day. That means the "World " to me, because I was out of town. Noah thought of things to do for my dog that I had forgotten to tell him. I have an extended stay out of town, and Noah is my choice for a second time! Thank You, Noah, "Endlessly" for taking excellent 24 Karat Gold care of my fur baby!”

“Jessica was amazing, responded straight away and was very responsible, she took great care of Gizmo and went above and beyond of what was asked, I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica, so glad I found you 😁 Mandy B”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog caregiver with hands-on experience working in a dog daycare environment. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I truly love making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Outside of working with dogs, I grew up with many of then in the household so being around dogs has always been a natural part of my life. My daycare experience has taught me how to supervise play, recognize dog body language, manage routines, and give each dog the attention they need. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, or a calm walk, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every dog like family. My real specialty however, is good vibes! I’d love to meet your pup and help make your life easier! I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays starting after 3 PM. This makes me a great fit for busy pet parents who need reliable evening care, walks, or check-ins after work hours. I stick closely to your dogs usual routine so things feel familiar and stress-free. That includes feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any specific instructions from their favorite person! Each pet gets attention, care, and supervision based on their personality and energy level, and I always keep the home clean and respected. During and at the end of each visit, you’ll receive report cards and pictures to see how your fur baby’s day went!
About: I grew up in North Carolina on my grandmother’s hobby farm. I have cared for just about every animal you can think of not just cats and dogs! All animals deserve love and care especially while their favorite human is away. I am currently working as a clerk for USPS and often get off of work at 10 in the morning leaving me with plenty of time to care for your pet! My schedule is subject to change but I am flexible and so is my job. Any schedule change can be worked around and I am always free in the evenings. I work no later than 5 on the days I am scheduled for a full day. At this time I live in an apartment with my two cats, they are very well cared for and I keep my living space extremely clean and tidy so that they can live their lives in a cozy environment. I never leave out anything that could harm them. My partner has an Australian blue heeler that I love and care for as my own. I take him for 2+ mile walks sometimes twice a day when his normal walker is not available. I care for all animals as if they are my own because they deserve the same love we do.
About: I walk 10,000 steps a day and would love to walk your dog the extra mile. I've taken care of pets my whole life and love to volunteer in local shelters. I can teach your dog a few tricks, get all their zoomies out with a nice run, and give them all the frisbee, ball, tug of war, hide and seek, etc. playtime that they might want. I can also provide extra care to anxious, reactive, older, post surgery, and/or disabled pets. I have some dog training experience and can help your dog be more comfortable with other dogs, other people, address triggers, reduce pulling on the leash, etc. During our long walks, your pets will play, relax, and make new doggie friends all the time with careful introductions and lots of happy moments. Looking to build long term relationships with my clients and new pet friends. You can always reach me when I'm pet sitting if you ever have a question, I am always just a phone call or a text away. I'm currently self employed as a small business owner and mostly working from home. My schedule is very flexible and I always make time for long walks anyway so pet walks fit well into my routine of things. I always make sure the pets have food and a fresh bowl of water. After that I like to build some trust with sniffs and treats, see if they know any tricks. Once the pet is comfortable it's time for a walk and/or playtime to get all the pent up energy out. I think playtime is the most happy time for pets so I always to engage in a few different kinds of games until I find one that they love. This way the pets are happy and comfortable and can happily nap for the rest of the day after we are done.
“Shiyuan was amazing! She was so thoughtful, reliable, and kind. She took care of everything perfectly and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. We really appreciated how much care and attention she gave. I’d absolutely choose her again!”

“Maria was available on short notice and did an amazing job. I was heading out of town and she not only came over for a meet & greet the night of the booking, but she was able to check in on my dogs over the upcoming weekend.”
About: From a young age, I was the main caretaker in our home for our dogs due to my lifelong love for animals, and warm caretaking skills. I was responsible for training and walking with our dogs (multiple at a time), feeding, medication administration, and physical therapy for my dog with arthritis. I have a deep respect for non-human animals and that is reflected through the way I treat them and live my life. I work from home on my own schedule, so my availability is very open. At times I need to leave home to teach yoga classes or run errands, but can easily work with a pet parent's schedule. With immense love and thoughtfulness, I ensure the safety and happiness of any animal under my care. My home is free of children and pets, and I ensure that food is kept in cabinets and plants that are harmful to pets are kept out of reach. My home is small, so it is easy for me to constantly keep an eye on your pet. I also have a walk-out porch so we can easily go outside at any time. My apartment neighborhood has a beautiful nature path where we can take multiple walks throughout the day. I personally go on daily walks despite the weather, so I am prepared to walk with your dog as much as they like and is healthy for them.
“Erica is an amazing pet sitter! From the moment she met our cat, it was evident that she knew what she was doing and understands how to building a loving relationship with animals. She’s incredibly reliable and sends detailed updates. I would recommend her time and time again!”

Farmington Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lauren was EXCELLENT! Sometimes when I'm not home my little old lady dog refuses to eat, but Lauren got her to eat almost her full bowl every meal! And, bless her heart, I'm worried about letting my dogs out at night because of a skunk in my yard... Lauren went out there every night with the flashlight and made noise to scare the skunk away. She truly went above and beyond! She is very knowledgeable about animals of all kinds and she was super sweet. My dogs absolutely loved her. We will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Lauren!

Aixa, was very responsive and made a special trip to meet me and Luna that Saturday before her appointment. Luna takes a while to get used to new people and Aixa was very patient with her and able to coax Luna into her harness and take her for a long walk. Aixa sent very detailed updates and even video footage! I will definitely use her again!

This was our second time having Noah take care of our Dog, Ghost. I was so impressed with Noah the first time, he is an 'Exceptional Young Man". Very caring, always in communication with us while we are away, letting us know how Ghost is doing. Noah is very punctual and really loves animals, it shows in everything he does for Ghost. Thank You, so much Noah, for taking excellent care of Ghost for a second time! BB
