About: 10+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, temperaments, sizes and ages have taught me that every dog really is one-of-a-kind, and I honor all of their unique personalities and needs. I do sincerely respect dogs, but I always have so much fun spending time with them! I’m a student, and I’m busy with class from 12:30-4 M-TH, so I have the most free time during mornings and evenings. I live in an apartment with my very gentle 8 year old poodle, who I’ve noticed is a comforting presence to nervous dogs. I live a very short walk away from a great dog park.
“Ally was awesome!! She took excellent care of Oliver and sent thorough feedback. I felt very comfortable being away knowing Oliver was in such good hands. Thank you!!”
“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!”
“Madeleine was very nice, respectful, and helpful while taking care of my cats. There were a couple of minor hiccups—she arrived late on the first day and spent quite a bit of time on her phone rather than actively playing with the cats—but overall, she provided good care, and everything went well.”

About: With over 10 years of professional dog walking experience, I’ve had the privilege of building deep bonds with both dogs and their owners. The moment I arrive, tails wag, and owners smile, knowing their pup is in caring, experienced hands. I provide not just exercise, but love, enrichment, and a calm reassurance that brings owners back time and time again. Let me help your dog feel adored every step of the way! As a dedicated dog walker with 10 years of experience, my days and weeks revolve around the joy of caring for dogs. Each morning, I design custom walks and enrichment activities that fit each pup’s personality, while my flexible days let me accommodate both regular clients and new furry friends. Whether it’s a morning power walk or an evening stroll, I bring consistency, care, and a deep love for each dog I walk, ensuring they—and their owners—feel confident and happy every step of the way. I provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. With over 10 years of experience as a dog walker, I know how vital trust, routine, and a secure space are for every pup. Whether I’m caring for them in their home or on a walk, I honor their daily routines, exercise needs, and individual personalities. I ensure each dog feels safe, loved, and excited for every visit, so both you and your pup can have complete peace of mind.
About: Hi! I’m Stephanie! 🐾 I work full-time from home for Rocket Mortgage, so I’m home pretty much all day and your pup will have lots of company and attention while they’re here. I have two Pomeranians of my own. Luna is my “Covid puppy” and definitely the social butterfly of the house, while Cosmo is my sweet 14-year-old senior boy. Having a senior dog has given me lots of experience with the extra patience and care that older pups sometimes need. There’s also a baby in the house, so definitely a busy little household! The dogs are very much part of the family and I’m used to having a full house. We’re on a large corner lot with a fully fenced-in yard and 6-foot privacy fences, so there’s plenty of safe outdoor space for potty breaks, hanging out and getting some fresh air. We’ll still do walks, of course, but having a secure yard is definitely a nice bonus! And when it’s time to come inside, there’s a nice comfy couch right by the window where the dogs can keep themselves entertained watching everyone walk by. 😂 If your pup enjoys a good neighborhood watch spot and barking at the occasional passerby, they’ll fit right in! I’m pretty flexible when it comes to what your pup needs. Special diets, medications, potty accidents, extra walks, a specific routine, or just a LOT of cuddles are all totally okay with us. I know every dog is different, and am happy to keep them on whatever routine makes them feel most comfortable. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own, send pictures and updates, and make sure they get plenty of attention while they’re here. I know leaving your dog with someone can be stressful, so my goal is for you to feel like they’re having a little vacation of their own. 🐶❤️ I would love to have your pup come hang out! Our schedule is pretty relaxed and flexible! Since I work from home, I’m able to give the dogs attention, potty breaks, walks and outside time throughout the day rather than keeping them on a strict schedule. We’ll follow your pup’s normal routine as much as possible, including feeding times, medications, naps and whatever they’re used to at home. There’s plenty of time for walks and supervised yard time, but also lots of lounging, napping and hanging out with us. Basically, the dogs get to go with the flow of our day. If they want to play, we play. If they want to nap on the couch and watch the neighborhood, that works too! I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, comfortable and at home. I have a large corner lot with a fully fenced yard and 6-foot privacy fences, so pups have plenty of secure space to get outside. I work from home full-time, so I’m around throughout the day and able to keep a close eye on everyone. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs, medications, special diets and the occasional potty accident.
About: I have grown up loving and caring for dogs of my own as well as others. I have always been the person people always call when they have some kind of animal emergency. I absolutely love animals and know a lot about taking care of them and many different types. They will get lots of attention and quality care from me. I will spoil your baby as much as you will let me! I can administer any medication necessary. My dog takes pain meds twice a day so we are already on a medication routine. I have a flexible schedule so I can meet most needs. I keep in contact with you asap if there are any changes that are needed I live in a charming small house in the corner of Ferndale and a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. I have a fully fenced in backyard that is about 97% privacy fence. There’s one little corner where my dog can talk to the dog in back through a chain-link fence. Lots of shade and grass
“Rachel is the greatest! She's done drop-ins for our pups on two separate occasions and always goes above and beyond. She's always on schedule, shows such deep care for our dogs and home, is exceptionally communicative, and is so fantastic to work with all around. You may not be able to find a better dog helper in the world!”
About: As a mental health therapist, I understand the important role animals play in our emotional lives. Animals are more than just a thing we care for and deserve to be respected for their individual differences in personality, temperament, and needs. I have spent my lives work caring for humans and animals in this way and will work hard to listen and care for your animals in the individual ways they deserve. I currently own my own mental health practice and work from home doing virtual client visits. I have a flexible schedule that can accommodate your individual needs. I am able bodied and can travel to you for animal care. I require an in person meeting ahead of caregiving services to establish trust with both you and the animals and to ensure it is a good fit. If overnights are required, I will need access to Internet in order to work from the home.
“I have so much trust for Lauren and she gained that trust from the very first time I booked her. She treats my cat as if he were hers, very attentive to detail and with every trip, I am comforted by an ample amount of photos and videos. I couldn't recommend Lauren enough”
“very communicative! i love that jennifer was able to tolerate my pebble's neediness and even check on moose who happened to be hiding under blankets! would definitely book with her again!”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Highland Park stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Highland Park 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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.
To find sitters in Highland Park with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
