“Jeannette always goes above and beyond! Love the photos and Jack seems taken care of when I get back. When she couldn’t do a future checkin she contacted a different sitter and made sure that Jack was covered! Amazing!”
“Katie was very accommodating, responsive, and helped to relieve my anxieties about leaving my cat for the first time in a very long time. I highly recommend Katie!”

“Jj was fabulous with Eco and sent me updates after each visit, showing pictures and information about what she had done. She was kind and took good care of my senior cat, petting, playing, and making her feel comfortable.”

About: Since I was in my teens I have lived a life with pets - both dogs and cats, and it has been such a rewarding journey so far! I have had two rescue dogs, a collie mix and a beagle, and they had my whole heart. I currently have a multi-cat household, and do TNR in my neighborhood where I can to help the outdoor stray cats. I have also rehomed multiple cats with the help of local rescue groups to ensure a long happy kitty life. Currently, I spend a great deal of time with my best buddy Rocco, an 8 year old black lab. I have experience with small dogs, medium sized dogs and large dogs and honestly enjoy them all the same! I also have experience with cats of all ages, from bottle feeding kittens to 18 year old seniors, and am comfortable giving any medications to dogs or cats as well. I know my way around all kinds of personalities and ages, whether it be those that want to play or those that need a slow, gentle walk and some extra attention. I have also been working with the same vet for 20+ years that can attest to my care and love for animals. I will treat every pet like my own - patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Being around animals - that's my happy place. My hours at work have changed which allows me to be available Monday-Thursday 11am-3pm. I'm available for walks, drops ins for potty breaks while you're at work, or to check on your kitties if you'll be gone longer than you'd like to be. Lots of time for playing with your furry family members! I would be happy to come to your home and treat it and your pets with respect and care. My personal cats are all fixed and up to date on shots, however I took in a stray girl last winter who is very scared of everything. I think it's best to let her rule the house and come to visit yours at your homes where they are most comfortable.
“Erik watched my kitty on short notice and made the process easy. He sent updates and took great care of my car. She is a bit standoffish, but she took to Erik quickly. I will rebook with Erik on the future — thank you!”

About: I grew up with three cats and help train dogs through the Leadershape! Now I typically share my dog sitting assistance with my friends (for free even!) although I don’t have pets in my own all animals will find a warm welcoming home here I’m currently working full-time, but I work in the evenings and come home on my breaks so plenty of time to check in on our furry friend during the work week I live in an apartment that has a fenced in yard for dogs and a neighborhood park nearby. I’ve sat for large dogs while living here and their needs have been accommodated!
About: I am an all-around animal lover but I love dogs for their sweetness and playfulness. I’m a soccer fan, lover of music and love to spend time outside. I have experience with both small and medium size dogs. This includes walking, playing, bathing, feeding and dog-sitting. I even have some experience with puppies. I am a small person so I prefer not to walk large dogs. Good physical and mental health are important aspects to maintain in life. Adequate amount of exercise and play time are necessary in a dog's daily routine. I hope to meet and give your furry companion the care they need while you're away. After all, dogs are more than pets, they are part of the family and deserve to be treated as such. I am a full time artist and business owner. Being my own boss allows me to have a flexible schedule. It’s important for me to incorporate movement and fun into my daily life and there’s no better way than to spend time with animals by taking walks and playing. I like to have a clear understanding of an animal’s routine. Sticking to predictable routines are good for their nervous systems. For walking services, I like to go on calm, enriching walks. I’m down for detours and all the sniffing and sometimes I like to finish a walk with a short race back to the house. I ensure that they are hydrating and have everything they need before leaving and locking up. For house stays, I like to spend as much time with animals as they like. Most of my experience is with overnight stays. I am very clean and organized and make sure to do a nice reset for your return home.

About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs. As well as rescued cats and dogs from the streets. I’ve had many animals, from goldfish, to parakeets, to cats! I’m currently taking summer classes, but I can make time for pet walking or sitting! It brings me joy so it’s always a fun time. I used to pet sit for my friend whilst she was away on vacation. I would visit in mornings and evenings to feed, entertain, and walk her dog around the neighborhood!

About: Hello! I have two Siberian huskies and 15 years experience taking care of dogs and other furry friends. I have a flexible schedule which gives me availability to care for your pet with your schedule in mind. I especially love dogs that like snuggle, but I am no stranger to high energy dogs and I can provide the care, exercise and attention they need. Please let me know if you have any questions or special requests and I look forward to hearing about your pet! As a pet owner, consistently being attentive is my aim. I have an established routine of twice daily feeding and walking my dogs. I’d love to hear how I can step in to assist you and your pets! I am vigilant during outdoor activities: When taking the pet outside, I ensure they are securely leashed or in a fenced area. I am cautious of potential hazards, such as busy roads, other aggressive animals, or unfamiliar environments that might cause anxiety or stress. I stay in touch with the pet owner and provide updates on their pet’s well-being, including photos or videos if possible. I promptly inform them of any concerns, changes in behavior, or accidents to maintain trust and transparency.

About: I've owned/fostered/rescued animals my whole life, and I'm an avid animal lover. I run a rescue program with my friend and community members, and am very skilled with medical monitoring and behavior reading. I have experience working with special needs and elderly animals. I've administered oral medication and eye drops, changed doggy diapers, and bottle fed babies. I also have experience working with aggressive and territorial animals, I maintain a gentle and patient energy and work hard to create a secure relationship with each pet. I don't mind cleaning, I love super active animals, and I'm confident and reliable in caretaking. I work independently as an artist and curator, so I make my own schedule, so I always have plenty of time for your fur baby. I am unable to watch pets at my own place, as I am constantly fostering and have my own cats. I've been a trusted house/pet/baby sitter for 10 years, and will take great care of your space.
About: I’ve always had a special fondness for animals ; my first word as a baby was “Maggie” , which is the name of our golden retriever who would live to be 17 years old. Guided by buddhist philosophy, my love for fuzzy mammals has expanded outward to include all living things & has to approach even the most difficult situations gently & with empathy. In the years preceding my “Eureka!” Moment of wanting to become a trainer, i worked as a walker & sitter for 3 years in NYC at a place called brooklyn bow wow and later worked for a trainer named Daniel Nogueira for another 2 years. Periodically we would have workshops with Mark Bennett (CPDT-KA) which informed my ability to improve leash behaviors & develop a behavioral modification strategy of positive reinforcement (most domesticated dogs do not respond well to negative feedback ; they don’t understand why they are being yelled at! 🥹) Eventually I had to eschew the dream job to take on a better-paying gig to pay my astronomical rent, which sucked, so my instincts all led me back to the midwest to continue pursuing my goal of becoming a certified trainer. I have all of the availabilty currently! I do freelance work & make my own schedule, so i’m plenty flexible & available to spend quality time with furry friends. I very much enjoy using the excuse to get outside & get some exercise. I have a big wide open loft space for moderate zooming & places for beds & toys. I can divide the place into 4 different rooms in case they get too worked up and need some separate time away from eachother
About: Iv grown up closely with animals and always had them around ever since I was little. My family and friends have always been able to rely on me to take care of their animal’s I’m currently taking two classes at Wayne State and my classes are online so I will have a lot of time to play and take them for walks. I will be able to take them on long or short walks around the neighborhood, feed and take them out if need or change pee pad
“My pups love Monica!! She went above and beyond make sure they had time to get comfortable around her during the meet and great. Then during the visit Monica took extra time to ensure the pups had plenty of exercise and fun! I will be calling on a Monica to help with the pups again!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I got my childhood dog when I was 11. I was a foster for 4 months before I foster failed with my current baby. I would love to care for yours just as I do mine. I currently work part time, and my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available every day of the week for all your pet needs. I treat my dog likes he’s my son, because he is. That’s my baby and I’ll treat yours just the same. I truly am a dog person and simply love being around them.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Hamtramck choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
