About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. At just 10 years old, I started my own neighborhood dog-washing service because I genuinely enjoyed caring for them. Today, I share my life with my senior dog, Buddy, who has a calm temperament and gets along well with other dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs, whether they’re playful puppies or relaxed seniors, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I know pets are family, and I understand how important it is to have complete peace of mind when someone else is caring for them. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you always know your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and overnight stays. I believe in keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible to help them feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I live with my senior dog, Buddy, who has a calm temperament and gets along well with other dogs. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions so they receive personalized care. I provide a clean, loving, and supervised environment and will send regular updates, photos, and messages so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own family.
“Our dog Zoey is always so happy to stay with Allesha and her dogs! Allesha is fast and quick with correspondence and takes good care of our dog. We are happy repeat customers. Thank you!”
“Jess is an absolute gem!!! I was super nervous about leaving my young pup to go abroad. She has recently experienced her spay surgery and needed a bit of extra care to ensure she stayed calm-ish and didn’t disrupt her healing incision. Jess was able to monitor the healing wound, keep up with Daisy’s schedule and send pictures and updates. Jess treated my pup like her own and I am truly appreciative of that. I will definitely be using Jess’s services again. My pup was comfortable and well taken care of so I’m a happy customer.”
“Sam is attentive and accommodating and you can tell he really cares about the dogs he boards. I am always nervous to board Hana anywhere but with Sam I felt a sense of ease. Based on the consistent and detailed updates, Hana seemed to have a great time! Would definitely book again.”
“Great communication and wobderful with my dog, Stella. It's clear when I pick her up based on her relaxed temperament for at least the following day that she got to play and run off some energy. Highly recommend!”
“Amazing photos and communication throughout the stay. Isa had a great time and she can't wait until we leave town again so she can come back to stay with Jeannette. Thanks!”
“Rebecca was amazing-flexible and communicative. We felt our dog was well cared for and loved. We loved the multiple daily photos of our senior dog and the updates on how she was doing. Rebecca gave her meds and took her for walks. She will miss her new friends and family!”
“I did a last minute booking, and she took my puppy with no hesitation. I received updates twice a day. When my brother was late picking up my puppy they were very accommodating”
About: Hello! My pet experience consists of having my own doggy for the past 20 years. I rescued my older dog and then got a new puppy. My old Rose passed away but I had to give her eye medication and oral medication everyday so I am comfortable with that. I also grew up with family dogs and cared for those dogs. My availability to watch your dog is very flexible. I work from home a most days a week so it is a high chance that I could work from home while caring for your pup. I am a very caring person. I have a PhD in human development and family science and work in the social work field. I have a giant heart and would love to care for your doggie! As a stay-at-home worker, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, regular potty breaks, and plenty of play and cuddle time. My flexible schedule means I can easily accommodate pets’ needs, whether that’s sticking to a specific routine or being available for spontaneous walks and care. Being home also helps me monitor behavior closely and respond quickly to any changes, making pets feel secure, loved, and well looked after. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In my home, pets have access to cozy rest areas, regular outdoor time, and plenty of affection and play throughout the day. I maintain a calm, clean space and follow any routines or special instructions provided. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick closely to the pet’s established schedule to minimize stress. I provide regular updates, ensure fresh food and water, maintain cleanliness, and give each pet the love and attention they’re used to.
“Mariana stepped in to help out at the last minute and took great care of my dog! She provided us with lots of updates every day during our dog's 5-day stay, and was prompt and courteous with her replies. My dog is very energetic, and Mariana provided her with plenty of exercise. She also made herself very available for different drop-off/pick-up times. We would definitely recommend Mariana to everyone!!”
“Omgoodness I can’t give enough praise for this family, they are very attentive & loving people, I felt comfortable immediately at the meet & greet & was so happy I chose them to care for my puppy Ace for an entire week, they provided me with text & picture updates daily. Ace was exhausted when we picked him up from all the fun he had. I would highly recommend them every time! Looking forward to using them again”
“I cannot recommend Nicole enough! ❤️ She watched my two dogs, Luna and Leo, for a week and a half while I was having construction done on my house, and she was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She treated my dogs like they were her own and kept me updated throughout their entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and communicative! Leaving your dogs for that long can be stressful, but knowing they were with Nicole made it so much easier. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were safe, loved, and being very well taken care of. I would 100% trust her with my pups again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly love and care for their pets! 🐾❤️”
“I’m so glad that Sherin took care of Airo when my parents were away for vacation back home for two months. It’s awfully a long time but since I’m living in a different province and had no one to care for him, I decided to get a sitter instead. Sherin took good care of Airo and treated him like family. She even allowed him to stay in bed with them, which Airo loves to do and is used to do. Sherin kept me posted and even did video calls to see him, got him groomed and overall he was happy there. He was able to learn to socialize and interact with other dogs, which he was not used to before. Thank you, Sherin, for taking care of Airo! Im sure Airo misses you, your home, family, Whiskey and the other dogs. Will definitely have my mom set up play dates with Whiskey.”
About: As both a lifelong dog owner and a healthcare professional, I bring compassion, responsibility, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. Growing up with dogs — and now being completely obsessed with my own — has taught me how important routine, safety, and genuine affection are. My background in healthcare means I’m dependable, highly attentive, and comfortable handling special instructions or medical needs. Your pet’s well-being and comfort will always be my top priority. Your dog will be treated like family, with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I currently have a hybrid work schedule I would be gone working Monday-Wednesday for up to 4 hours total in the mornings between 8am and 12pm but home with dogs the rest of the day after that. I work fully remote Thursdays and Fridays and then home all weekend. If I do have to leave or run errands I make sure dogs are not alone for too long and have never left my dog alone for more than 5 hours max. I have a large fenced in yard and 2 dogs who love to run and play. There is no furniture that is off limits, dogs are allowed anywhere they would like. Caring for the pet would mean working around the dogs schedule and routine. Dog would receive lots of exercise, treats and cuddles.
“Katherine is always very quick to respond and provides plenty of updates throughout my pup’s stay! She’s extremely reliable and flexible which makes her my go-to when I need a sitter.”
“Andrea was amazing and I cannot recommend enough! She helped me out when I was in a last minute bind and took my dog with one day notice. She sent me pictures and updates daily and kept me in the loop on how my dog was doing. Andrea is the most kind and my pup came home happy! We will absolutely use her in the future.”
“This was Gibson's first time with Leslie and she was excellent. She was caring and attentive to his needs as a senior fur baby. She took him on walks and sent us pictures of him, which meant a lot to us. The experience for us was great!!”

Could not be happier with our experience with Emily and Jason!!! Completely professional, warm and friendly with the whole experience. We started with a casual meet and greet to ensure her baby Larry and my babies would get along ok. Then during their stay she sent us tons of updates and photos every day. My dogs came home so happy. Truly the best experience we have ever had on Rover. She even sent them home with little treats and a hand written card. Will absolutely be a repeat customer, couldn’t recommend them more!
10/10 he took Evie in on a few days prior, that right there is enough for me, he sent beautiful pictures of my Evie. Not only that but Ekow is able to take care of hyper active dogs, who need to do alot, and sometimes have trouble listening. That is what you call a sitter, will definitely book with him again!!
Yelitsa did such a wonderful job with our dog Mia! I received so many updates, at least 2 a day. She did well with administering my dog’s daily medication and keeping up with our regular feeding schedule in her home. Overall, my dog looked super happy every day and Yelitsa went above and beyond with exercise, treats and play time. We will definitely be booking with her again and I’d recommend her to anyone in need of pet sitting!
Kira's been our rover since we moved to Detroit, and our dog's hung out with her and her dog many times at this point. Our dog clearly loves staying over, which is rare for her, and it speaks to Kira's ability to care for animals and be responsible and present. Will continue to trust her with my dog for as long as she's willing!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks.

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
