“Harper's stay with Rachel went very well. We were in Detroit for a family funeral and wanted a safe and happy place for our pup. Rachel was wonderful and went above and beyond what we expected. She is so friendly, welcoming, and thoughtful. I greatly appreciated the photos and video provided during the day. I also loved that she took the time to get to know more about Harper and our expectations even before arrived at her home. The drop-off and pick-up process were extremely efficient. I would definitely recommend Rachel.”
“Samantha is awesome! You can tell how passionate she is about dogs and how interested she is in making sure Archie’s stay was great. He loves being there and learning how to be a good dog from Samantha and the rest of her pack. Samantha makes sure to work on socialization, commands and gives the pups great treats too. I especially appreciate all the pictures!”
“My Coco is very happy to visit Kristin & has received wonderful care. Kristen is very accommodating when I occasionally have to change my schedule & I do appreciate that.”
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. It warms my heart to see my fur baby so excited to see Sheila. In the past when I took her OTHER places she dreaded going and would pull back. With Sheila she runs to her giving me the comfort I need.”
“Robin is great at communicating and sending updates during the day on how Molly is doing; a 5 mo SHGP is definitely a challenge and Robin is all for it! I highly recommend her to take care of your furry family member, I’ve been relying on her for day care 2 days a week with the likelihood of overnights in the future.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — from loyal childhood pets to rescuing animals in need. They’re more than companions to me; they’re family, healers, and honestly, some days I connect with them better than most humans. I understand their need for routine, comfort, patience, and love — the same values I bring from years of childcare experience. As someone who has cared for children professionally, I’m calm under pressure, intuitive to nonverbal cues, and deeply reliable. I know how to create safe, engaging environments, and that carries over naturally to how I care for pets. Whether it’s an energetic pup, an anxious rescue, or a senior dog who just needs a gentle walk and some TLC, I meet them where they’re at. Hi! I’m a college student currently doing my internship at Novi High School, working toward a career in school counseling. I’m also a stay-at-home dad, and in between my family life and my internship, I’m looking to care for pets this summer to fill my cup and earn some extra income doing something I truly love. Animals have always been a part of my life — I’ve had pets since I was a kid, including rescues — and they’ve been a constant source of comfort and joy. Caring for them is second nature to me, and I believe animals deserve the same kind of patience, consistency, and love that I bring to both parenting and working with students. If you’re looking for someone who’s responsible, grounded, and will treat your pet like family, I’d be honored to help. I provide attentive, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. For dogs, that means regular walks, playtime, and positive interaction to keep them happy and active — all while ensuring they’re safely leashed, hydrated, and secure in their environment. For cats, I focus on a calm, clean, and enriched space with fresh food and water, clean litter, and gentle affection on their terms. Whether it’s managing energy levels or giving space when needed, I always prioritize comfort, safety, and trust in every moment of care.
About: I recently lost my two beloved fur babies back-to-back due to old age, and our home feels so quiet without them. We miss the joy and companionship they brought every day, and would be honored to open our hearts and home to your pets. Working from home allows me to give them constant attention, with plenty of love, snuggles, and care—just as if they were my own. Hourly potty breaks, morning and evening walks, and lots of affection will be part of their daily routine here. Your furry family members will be treated like family in every way. I do work from home so I’m able to provide multiple breaks at all times of the day! If your pet is on a certain schedule please let me know. Your pup is my pup when in my care! They’re allowed to lounge on furniture and cuddle with me! They’ll feel right at home. Your pet will feel loved!
“Leslie was great with Sam! He is recovering from a surgery and made sure he was safe in his cone throughout the day. He also got to spend a lot of time outside, which he LOVED! We will re-book in the future ☺️”
About: My husband and I work from home and have very flexible schedules that allow us to be present with our pets during the day. There are no kids in the home during the day during the week. Typical day include walks around the neighborhood or nearby park, lounging or playing in the backyard or the dog park. Plenty of toys for chewers and plenty of space in our fenced yard to roam and play. I currently work from home as a technology sales rep. When I am not working, I’m entertaining both my toddler and pets. I often have a decent amount of free time and dog sitting has been a great outlet for my dog to socialize and get some fun in! For repeat pets, I have noticed a big difference after a few days of adjusting. Its important for pets to feel safe in whatever space they are in.
About: I’ve taken care of various breeds , animals, ages and sizes over the years for clients, friends, and family. I’ve also had family pets for years I’m currently a student with online courses, I am home to meet all daily or weekly routines for your pet. I enjoy daily activities and making sure they are happy. I have a fenced yard that’s great for play time and potty breaks, plenty of space throughout the house for your pet to explore and play.
About: I've taken care of and lived with a multitude of pets since 2015. Every year up until this year, I've lived with a dog and/or cat. I love animals, (my favorite is llamas) and would start a farm if I wasn't raised in the city My schedule is constantly changing, but currently I am walking pets throughout the day, or babysitting during the days. I am open to change routines if needed For sitting pets in my home, I have an apartment, which means your animal would be leashed anytime not in my home. If we are in their environment, I listen to their cues of safety and trust and of course whatever the owners are comfortable with. Also, if your pet is under my care, I can be reached anytime :)
About: I actually care for the animals well beings. I can train a pup to sit, stay, paw, shake (two different paws, 2 different commands), high 5 and even roll over! :) Pet care fits in my day to day life as my sister and I share 3 dogs and a cat together. 2 of those dogs plus the cat being mine so it plays such an important role in my life. As long as the supplies are there I will make sure your animal is getting the prescriptions, kitty litter changed. That’d be the only difference because I will be giving top notch service weather in at the clients home or my home.

Devere P.
“When my uncle passed away, I inherited his dog — a sweet but deeply traumatized pup who had just lost his best friend and didn’t trust anyone. I was overwhelmed with grief, and so was the dog. But Deve’re stepped in without hesitation. He showed patience, consistency, and so much compassion. He took the time to earn the dog’s trust, learning her triggers, keeping her safe, and slowly helping her feel secure again. He walked her gently, spoke to her softly, and created a calm space she could count on. Watching him care for her — especially during such a painful chapter — showed me how deeply he understands animals, especially ones who are hurting. He didn’t just help her heal — he helped me heal, too”

Jacob C.
“We've used Jacob numerous times for our pet sitting needs, ranging from long weekends away, to week-long+ vacations. We have found him to be incredibly trustworthy and reliable, and great with communication. He has even taught our pets a few tricks. I’d highly recommend him for any of your rover needs.”
Deja C.
“There is a possibility that Rosie likes Deja more than me and that is okay. It is a true testament to how Deja truly cares for Rosie like she is her own dog. She took Rosie on multiple walks throughout the day, provided all of her meals and snacks on time (while sticking to Rosie's diet and ensuring that all food consumed was safe for dogs), and even let her cuddle in bed to help her feel more at home. Deja really knows how to form an authentic relationship with your pet. I never feel any worry while Rosie is in her care!”
