“Erin went above and beyond with everything we asked of her. She took amazing care of Maple and kept him entertained the entire time. Maple is a high-energy puppy, and she handled him beautifully. I would 100% recommend her!”

“Breanna has been so great and reliable watching our dog Judy a few times now. Very communicative and sends lots of pics. We feel super confident leaving our anxious pup in her care!”

“Steve and Linda were amazing! We left them with our 6 year old labradoodle and 14 week old puppy and they handled it masterfully. Wonderfully patient with barking, odd sleeping arrangements, early wake up calls and puppy accidents. They took good care of us too...clearing snowy driveways, leaving the house spotless, and sending my husbands passport to us via fed ex when he misplaced his wallet! Lots of pics and updates when we were gone allowed us to rest easy. Highly recommend!!!”

“Hannah was great! She sent a lot of photos of chip which I really appreciated. She was also very communicative throughout the weekend. I would use her again for sure :)”

About: Hello! I am new to using the Rover app, but have several years of experience caring for many different breeds and ages of dogs. I’m an active person & work from home, so I can be attentive to your pet’s needs and regular routine. I am happy to provide references if you’d like to learn more from owners I’ve worked with in the past. I work from home and am available to pet sit overnight and during the day. I regularly provide overnight care, daytime walks & runs, and extended stays. I typically come to the pet and stay in your home. I find this is easiest for everyone and keeps the pet(s) in their normal routine. My preference and focus is on maintaining the same level of care you provide your pet, which includes following their schedule and normal activities. Typically, I start with an in person visit to meet you and your pet and learn about their day to day schedule & needs. I’m happy to do trial-runs if that makes you more comfortable before your time away. I am accustomed to taking care of other house needs while you are away, as needed - mail, watering, etc. I clean my way out of the house before I leave.
About: I've grown up my entire life surrounded by pets. I absolutely love animals, dogs and cats especially. I've spent the last year looking after the pets of fellow family and friends and worked my way up to watching for fellow residents in my city and cities nearby. I'm a full-time employee in a K-12 public school and a part-time student at Wayne State University. My college schedule is flexible, and I still have plenty of time during the day to help. Back home I would feed and water my pets every morning, take them for a walk if the weather was nice, and play games such as fetch. For my clients I will do have your pets fed at the desired time you prefer. I spend time playing with them, giving them the attention they deserve, and a walk.
About: 10+ years owning and taking care of cats. I have experience staying overnight to care for dogs as well. Additionally, I have dog walking and sitting experience with a variety of dog breeds (big and small). I am available before 4:30 pm on Mondays and Thursdays. I am very flexible on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I will be available most Saturdays. I am open to do drop ins, dog walking, and house sitting for your pet. I am very reliable when it comes to safety and trust.
“Brandi took excellent care of my pup and the house. She is very sweet and communicates well. She was prompt, sent photos and brief recaps, and the house barely had a trace of her being there. Highly recommend!”

“I was in a last minute pinch for a weekend trip and Josh came through. Josh took great care of my two pets and made sure they were well taken care of and loved. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a sitter.”

“Cheryl is wonderful and very kind. Our dog Bella takes time to warm up to people and she didn’t have a problem warming up to Cheryl and snuggling on the couch with her. I already have her booked to house sit for us before the end of the year. Thank you for your care of our pack, Cheryl!”

“My boy is a high energy Vizsla & I’ve never left him with someone new so was a little nervous to leave him. Sarah exceeded my expectation! Had last minute meds she had to give him & last minute fence getting put up & she handled it all perfect. Pretty sure Boone likes her more than me now!”

About: I've had the pleasure of looking after small to large dogs, each with their own lovely personality - I'd love the opportunity to meet your pup! I offer walks, photo pupdates, vet visits, and meds administered (if needed). I like to keep open communication as that is what I want when my animals are looked after. I work part time so have quite a lot of availability to be with your pup when you need. I can offer morning and evening walks or drop in for a visit! I like to know the lay of the land and receive instructions as to best care for your pup. I am able to crate dogs, adhere to feeding schedules, and offer lots of play!
About: I believe in health for everyone in your familia, even the ones with tails. I can do everything from train and run your most rambunctious puppy to gently walking or playing with your senior doggo. For me, pets of all kinds are part of the household and I really believe in treating them as such. Pets deserve to be treated well and have fun under our roofs. By the way...One of my super powers is running after escaped dogs both in Detroit and the Pointes! I do this all because of a profound love for my first dog and dear runner friend, Tyson the Rottweiler, who always kept me company and taught me the value of loyalty, love, and the idea of caring for others.
“Samantha was wonderful! She recommended a meet and greet, communicated promptly and clearly, asked great questions and took such good care of my babies! She also adhered to their regimen and took great care of my place too. I highly recommend Samantha!”

“Lauri was amazing. She was wonderful with my dogs, including my senior who has health issues and takes medications. She gave me frequent, comprehensive updates, and sent plenty of much-appreciated photos of my fur babies (and even of my aquarium and flowers). She took excellent care of the household generally, followed all my instructions/requests, and was very professional and communicative. The dogs were lucky to have her. I'll call on her again in a heartbeat!”

“Destiny is the best rover sitter! She sent tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Our kitty had the best time and she left our house so clean! So thankful and will absolutely be booking with her again!”

About: I am a loving, kind person. If I could I would save the entire pet kingdom. Some people say I am a dog whisperer. I’ve been taking care of my furry friends since I was a little girl. Your pet will be treated as if it was mine. I will make sure to provide the best care and protect your baby the best possible way. I am a proud owner of a Mini Aussie - Koda and a Black Cat - Joe. Few years ago I said goodbye to my best trio ever. They were all senior doggies. First I’ve lost Koko (17 years old Maltipoo), second heartbreak was 13 years old Pitbull - Woofy, third 15 years old Chihuahua - Choochoo ! All were the most important furry babies ever! I will always carry this horrible hole in my heart after the BIG loss. I’ve decided to join Rover to fulfill my purpose of helping others with their loved ones as best as I can, so we both know they are in good hands while you are busy with your obligations. I am here for you and for them. I understand how important our four legged friends are, and I will make sure we are all happy at the end of the busy day. We can go for long walks, we can stay home, we can relax or play! Whatever it takes for you and your pet to be comfortable and completely satisfied. I am here to help! I have plenty of time since I’ve moved back to Michigan and looking for a job. I know I would be happy to do something I love, which is taking care of your furry friend (s). I have a fenced large backyard. I have a cat and a dog. They are both extremely friendly. If needed they can be separated from a pet I do take care of.
Grosse Pointe Woods pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah is wonderful. Our dogs love her. She is relaxed and goes out of her way to make our dogs happy in our absence. She was there everyday when she said she’d be and stayed with our dogs so they weren’t on their own longer than necessary. We definitely would love to use her again if she’s available. She’s the best! We came home to a clean house. Our dogs shed a lot! It was nice to walk into vacuumed floors. Sarah was excellent with communicating with us and sending pictures.
