“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.”
“This was our first time having Madalyne watch our three kitties. We have a few shy cats and they managed to come out for Madalyne which was really amazing. She took really good care of everybody and sent some pictures. I would highly recommend.”

“Aixa is so kind and just amazing with our dog and a true gem. She’s also very reliable and a great communicator. So glad we found her and it’s great to have peace of mind knowing that our dog is in such good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing help with their pets.”

“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 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.
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.
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.

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.
“Wow! What an amxifn person and dog sitter. She is through and thoughtful. We really appreciated her attention to care and detail. We are feeling much more comfortable to take more trips out of the country. With out hesitation we would book 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 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 am very hard working and a huge animal lover. I have been in the caregiving profession for years. I had owned two dogs and taken care of them myself. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and loved every minute of it. I am very positive, loving and dedicated person. Care giving for animals and people is a personal love of mine. I have a very open schedule and am extremely flexible with hours. Any request, big or small, is never out of the question. I am extremely thorough and thoughtful when it comes to any task needing to be done. I will do anything for customer and animal satisfactory! I am currently on leave for work because I had suffered from a back injury and am still recovering. So for the time being, I am very available! I have experienced dog sitting and cat sitting in homes over days and over nights, treating the house with great respect, as well as their animals being my number one priority. I treat the home as I would like my own to be! Left in spotless condition and with love and care.

During and at the end of each visit, you’ll receive report cards and pictures to see how your fur baby’s day went!
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
