“Sarah is amazing! She was available in an emergency and is both sweet and professional. I know my cats feel comfortable around her and can tell they are well cared for in my absence. She goes above and beyond in communication and care. I have already rebooked and 100% recommend her!”
About: Several years of dog sitting experience. Comfortable with walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. Timely, diligent feedings and care instructions followed accurately to ensure the best care. I’m available for boarding and drop ins during evenings and weekends. I am also available for extended drop ins. I have reliable transportation, so can travel further to do drop ins. I care for pets by giving them the attention that they need. I ensure that their needs are met and that they are safe, and comfortable. This includes maintaining feeding and walking schedules.
“Wonderful first experience with Abbey! Great communication and my little Stella is usually so shy and barky to new people, but she warmed up instantly to Abbey on our initial meet and greet. I will definitely be booking again, thank you :)”
“Megan was wonderful with my kitties! Pastrami and Blackjack could not have been in better hands! She even put up with vomit and poop outside the box!! I will definitely be using Megan again on any of my future trips!”
“Autumn took good care of our 3 cats, even though they hid from her during each visit. I expected that from our formerly feral bunch. They were happy and healthy when we returned.”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and have a 3 year old and 6 month old Australian Shepherd, so I’m very comfortable with high energy pups. I’d love to help care for your pet! I offer walking, boarding, and drop-in services. I work mostly from home, so I’m around throughout the day for boarding and attentive care. I also own a spacious home with a large yard, giving your pet plenty of room to play and relax. Prior to accepting boardings, guests must be up-to-date on their rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella vaccines and provide proof of vaccination status. The health of your pups and my pup are my top priority. Since I mainly WFH, I am available for boarding and daycare services any day of the week. I am also available for walks and check-ins after work and on the weekends. I have a very friendly dog who regularly goes to dog daycare and is up to date on all of his vaccinations and flea/tick/heart worm, so he knows how to play safely with other dogs and is crate trained. I can crate your dog as well if preferred.
“Carla did a great job watching our three cats. We had a tougher situation needing to separate one from the others but she did an excellent job communicating with us how they were doing and spending time with them!”
About: After caring others pets to my own, I realize that no two furbabies are the same. Some require more patience and attention, while others need their freedom and a guiding hand. I am here to offer all of that! I have always been a dog and cat person. Growing up, I had a sweet little guinea pig since we didn't have the room for something bigger. However, he was never just a pet, he was a part of my family. I always think about him when caring for other people's pets. Over the years, I have cared for cats, walked dogs, and even housed a few pets for a short time (although, one of my relatives is rather allergic so I cannot offer that service anymore). I cannot wait to connect with more animals! I am currently a student at Oakland Community College pursuing a career in computer science. Most of my Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday's are crammed with classes in the afternoon. However, I have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings. The rest of the days are free. Regardless of what animal you share your home with their everyday messes are inevitable. I like to keep them in a happy and clean environment at all times. Their physical and mental health is always my priority.
About: I have been a dog owner for a majority of my life and I have done what ever is needed to take care of them. I will feed, play, bathe, walk, give medicine, and take outside to potty. Essentially whatever is asked for me I will do. I currently volunteer with therapy dogs in a hospital and I love it! Would love to bring my skills and passion to animal owners every where. I do work full time however, weekends I am free including Friday evening and I know that may be hard to get as people travel on the weekend. I live in a safe and dog friendly neighborhood! I have a big home they can explore in. I truly watch the animals as when they move I move.
About: Whether your pet stays with me or I care for them in your home, your dog (s) will receive the same level of care I give my own pets—fresh food and water, regular meals, exercise, playtime, affection, and close attention to their individual needs. Further, I have experience with administering medicine such as eye drops, ingestible liquids/pills, and shots. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in capable hands. I’ve been surrounded by furry friends my entire life! When I was a kid, my family had two dogs along with other animals, providing me with a foundation for loving and caring for pets. Since then, family and friends have trusted me to provide pet care services including pet sitting- feeding, play, and providing overnight company. I have 24 years of experience with small and medium sized dogs. Care for dogs is my only profession, allowing me to give your dog my full attention. My home is safe, welcoming, and open, and my friendly dog loves having dog visitors to play with. Your dog will be free to roam my home- welcome on the furniture- and have plenty of space to run in my large fenced in yard. Additionally, I am located near the heart of Dowtown Royal Oak for dogs who are excited by people and other dogs, as well as several parks with open spaces within walking distance. I currently have a three dog limit for boarding and pet sitting. I’m home full time, so I’m able to provide dogs care with my full attention. Whether morning, afternoon, or night I’m available round the clock to fit you and your pets schedule and needs! I’m happy to provide care in your home or mine! My home is safe, welcoming, and pet friendly- with large areas to roam or smaller gated spaces ideal for dogs who prefer time alone, are shy, or being newly socialized. I have a large fenced in yard dogs both small and big can enjoy and many local parks within walking distance! Further, my dog Bernie is an excellent playmate for all dogs I care for.
About: I have grown up and taken care of animals most of my life. I am a reliable care taker who prioritizes communication to give you and your furry friend the best experience I possibly can and beyond. I am currently working part-time which makes my schedule perfect and flexible to help out wherever is needed! I have reliable transportation to get me to and from your furry friend! I am comfortable doing home visits whether that be for a few hours a day or over night. I take pride in my ability to give your furry friend the love and attention they need while you are away!
“I would HIGHLY recommend Ciara to anyone looking for pet care of any kind. She takes such amazing care of Angel everytime I board with her. I get lots of pictures and video updates of her and she is played with and watched 24/7. I trust her fully and she treats my cat as if it were her own. Ciara goes above and beyond any pet sitter I’ve had. Angel & I will miss you in Nashville!”
“From the moment I met Ashley during her visit before we left for our trip, I had no doubt that they were attentive, kind and detailed. I had no hesitation leaving our kitty in her care. They came every morning on time and if something came up, even gave us a heads up that they might be a smidge late. So so grateful for their compassion and love towards our lil fur all. Would not hesitate to book with them again!”
About: With 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and needs, I understand that every animal deserves personalized care. As a pet owner myself, I have experience with everything from energetic puppies and senior dogs to bottle-fed kittens and insulin-dependent pets. I provide flexible, attentive care, along with regular updates and clear communication, so you can have the same peace of mind I would want when my own pets are in someone else’s care. Pet sitting fits into my weekly routine, giving me the opportunity to check in, take walks, or provide longer care tailored to each adorable pet. I care for pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine—with attention, patience, and respect for their routines. I follow each pet’s specific needs, from daily walks and diets to unique quirks and preferences shared by the owner.
About: I’m majoring in business and I own a long haired chihuahua. I’ve cared for neighbor’s and family’s dogs in the past by walking and dog sitting. I’m on a very flexible schedule, so most times during week days I will be able to walk your dog! I’m excited to take them on walks :) For dog walking, I like to make sure we walk in areas with sidewalks that are safe. I’d bring water to keep your dog hydrated, especially if it is warm out!
About: Hi! My name is Coryn. I am currently a 4th year medical school student in my clinical rotations here in Michigan. I have had 25+ years experience with taken care of dogs. I have cared for my family's dog for many years while growing up whether it be as big as a Bernese Mountain Dog, Great Pyrenees, or as small as a Scottish terrier. I have had a dog of my own but has unfortunately passed on to the rainbow bridge at 11 years old. I have now had 2-3 years of experience watching dogs a few years ago before I started medical school and took a hiatus. I am back to hopefully help my community with dog sitting or walking. I love dogs and am comfortable with any dog you bring my way. I can play with your dog and take them on many walks and play with them outside either at the dog park or the state park. I have a welcoming apartment home for your pet to stay if needed. I am able to watch your pet full time. There will either be me or my husband at home to take care of your pet 24/7. I am highly compassionate, sensitive to needs, and have 100% attention to the pets I take care of. I make sure your pet gets all their needs taken care of whether it be to go outside for potty time, walking, or play and if they are hungry or just need a treat.
About: I grew up with dogs and love going on walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, and making sure each dog gets plenty of attention and affection. I take the time to learn every dog’s personality and energy level so they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. My goal is for your pup to feel like they’re on their own little vacation too! I work full-time during the week, but I have availability after work and on weekends for pet care. I also have earlier afternoons on Wednesdays and Fridays, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs and communicate clearly to ensure dependable and loving care. I will always respect your home and follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Communication is also very important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, well-cared-for pet and a home that has been treated with the utmost respect.
About: I've been raised with cats my whole life and currently have several fur babies. I also have pet rats. Experienced caregiver to both. My parents have dogs and cats and I have experience with handling larger dogs and caring for small animals in general. I Currently work full time, Monday through Fri day 9am-6pm so would primarily be available Friday evening through Monday morning. I there is an emergency or if you have adequate office accomodations at your place of residence I would consider weekday availability on a case-by-case basis as I work remotely, usually from home.

About: Hello, I’m Rick, an experienced pet sitter dedicated to providing exceptional care for your furry family members in the comfort of their own home. I specialize in in-home house sitting because pets are always happiest and least stressed when they get to stick to their normal routines in familiar surroundings. Whether you’re heading out of town for the weekend, going on an extended vacation, or need reliable care over the holidays, I offer complete piece of mind while you’re away. I have cared for puppies all the way up to seniors. I require a smoke free home for my own health and breathing comfort. I am best suited to care for small to medium dogs, or specific breeds I know well. I am available 7 days per week, in addition to holidays. I walk pets in the morning and afternoon. Bonus if you live in Livonia because I will also stop in on lunch. Sometimes my random vacation days coincide with pet sitting as well. Currently, I do not have any pets, but when I did, I make all the time in the world for them. I have always cared for others’ little family members in their homes. The animals are more comfortable that way, and not anxious. There are a few that I care for so often, they gave me my own key to make it more convenient. If that doesn’t show an example of trust….

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Franklin
Emily took perfect care of my kitties and did everything I asked. She gave me thorough updates and even cleaned up their messes. They don’t like strangers and they were out playing with her and trusting her to give treats during visits. I plan on booking her again! 🤗
Lizzi was awesome. This was our first time leaving our super social under 1 year old kitten and I was really nervous. It was so great seeing updates of Zuzu happily playing, sleeping, eating and drinking.. being her happy self while we were away. Lizzi’s communication and kindness made this all a really easy experience for each of us when usually leaving a pet for the first time is very anxiety inducing. Lizzi is exactly the person I was looking for to take perfect care of Zuzu while we were away. That lextra level of attention and care that goes beyond being in a safe place and being fed, but truly knowing that someone with experience and compassion has their best interest at heart.
