House Sitting Hope

“Aria took diligent care of our pup Ellie while we were both away on work trips. When Ellie wasn't feeling well Aria kept me up to date the whole time, which made me feel comfortable in what could otherwise be a very concerning situation. She even gave Ellie a bath when she rolled around in the mud! Thanks Aria for all your help 🙏”

About: I've cared for dogs since I was 11, caring for my childhood dog all the way to age 16. I have 4 year and counting working in the veterinary field. I'm comfortable caring for older and more medically complex friends if needed. I recently moved to Michigan from Maryland and am settling in to the new normal. I'm currently working part-time and Im very flexible and open through the week, especially holidays. I currently have two cats and a dog and I'm always happy to call another one part of my family. I hope, beyond providing for their basics, I'm able to get to know your pet.

“Sydney is a very personable lady. She listens well to instructions, and communicates with understanding, acceptance and flexibility. She was available last minute( same day) which was such a relief to us. We look forward to having her be our “go to person” when we need a pup sitter.”

“Candice was GREAT with our Stella She was very communicative, sent pictures of our happy girl, house was spotless when we returned. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I have known dogs for about 8 years and worked at an animal kennel for 2 years, taking care of 2-month-old puppies to 17-year-old dogs. I know how to give oral and injected medicine, and have taken training classes for all ages of dogs I am currently shadowing at a Veterinary Clinic, but will always have nights to do overnight house sitting, and the day I don't work, I am available for day-care in your home, walking, and training Any house is sufficient for overnight pet sitting, daycare, or training. I don't need anything specific for any of these services, and the pets will be getting amazing and comfortable care.

About: I have been providing pet-sitting services since 2019 and have cared for a variety of dogs and cats. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand the importance of creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I currently share my home with a friendly Shih Tzu and a Burmese cat, giving me daily experience with both canine and feline needs. In addition to drop-in visits and pet sitting, I have boarded pets in my home and understand how to help them adjust to a new environment while maintaining their routines and reducing stress. My experience includes feeding, administering medications when needed, daily walks, playtime, companionship, overnight care, and providing regular updates to pet owners. I strive to treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive individualized attention, affection, and excellent care while their families are away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and quiet environment, I am committed to providing dependable, attentive, and compassionate care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and do not work a traditional 9-to-5 job, which allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I am available for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care while you are away. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. Before the stay, I take the time to learn about your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, and any special instructions. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience while maintaining as much of their normal routine as possible. During their stay, your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and supervision. Dogs will enjoy regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. Cats will receive attentive care, enrichment, play, and a quiet, comfortable environment where they can feel secure. I understand that being away from home can be stressful for some pets, so I focus on creating a calm and loving atmosphere. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: When I have been a sitter in the past I was in charge of admitting medication few times a day. Feed dogs separates if they had special feedings. I also did overnight stays up to 5 days. I also walked the dogs a couple times a day. I also have watched up to four dogs at a time. I currently very open at this point in time. My availability will be everyday from 10am on to10 p.m. and every weekend I am also available, but my hours are more flexible. A family-friendly pet environment. We also have fur babies here to keep company. We also have four kids for extra love and attention and outside play. We do not have a fenced yard and I also live by a busy one-way

“Maddy was really great at communicating and giving updates. She was very easy to work with and was great with Emma. This was our first time using rover and we were a little nervous but Maddy made it very easy and comfortable for us and we were able to have a great time with zero worries!”

“Alana was wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and communicative throughout the stay, sending daily updates and photos which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She took great care of our pets and helped them feel comfortable. She also left the house very clean, even doing more than we would’ve expected. She was also incredibly flexible when our travel plans changed due to flight issues. We’d definitely recommend her and would love to work with her again!”

Sherlin P.

“Elise was fantastic with our 2 dogs and would highly recommend her. Very prompt on time and also in responding to questions and great with sending you updates while you are away. Lucky to have found her to assist with our dogs while traveling.”

About: Cats were my first pets. Dogs and cats are now my babies and a big part of my life! I have decades of experience with pets in animal shelter settings and in my own home. I can give insulin shots and other meds as needed. How can I help? I am a retiree who loves her two dogs and her cat, and I can't wait to love on yours! I am a part-time sitter with decades of experience with animals. My goal is to give others peace of mind when they have to be away from their pets short-term. Safety of your babies is my priority. I will make sure I understand their needs well in advance of my visit. Photos of your pets will be texted to you during my visit so you can see how they are doing in your absence.

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had pets. Cats, dogs and even a cow and chicken or two. I strongly believe our pets are family members just like our human family. I've had big and little dogs, and many different cats. My current little man is my best buddy he is spoiled and loved so much. He's 7 years old and loves other dogs to hang out with. He doesn't pay any attention to cats. I would love to care for your family member, giving you peace of mind that they will be well cared for and loved on while in my care. My availability is completely open, any day and time. I'm very flexible with dates and times, whether at your home or mine. Thank you for your time and I look forwars to hearing from you! I have a fenced in area for bathroom breaks and a large yard on a quiet country road to run and play in. I have space for a crate, I even have a very large one that can be used if necessary. Also have an almost two mile lane around our farm property to walk and run around. My home has plenty of space for exploring or just chilling out.

About: Though I’ve only had my own animals for 6 years, I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. I was our in-house dog trainer, teaching mine and my grandparents dogs how to sit, shake, speak, and stay before I was breaking double digits. I love all kinds of animals, and have cared for birds, rats, snakes, and turtles outside of just cats and dogs. I’ve only had huskies in my house, so I’m totally used to pets that shed and need to be brushed frequently. I would love to befriend and care for your pet while you’re exploring old places and new! I’m currently an online college student with open availability. I am pretty flexible and will do my best to work with you to accommodate yours and your pets needs! I am someone who loves the companionship of all animals. I will talk to your pets and give them all the love they need (or want, of course)!

About: I’ve had dogs for 10 years, and have frequently watched dogs for friends and family. Experience with both puppies and senior dogs, including dogs with mobility issues and limited eyesight. (I accept pitbulls and pitbull mixes) Currently working part-time with a flexible schedule, leaving a vast amount of free time and wiggle room to be able to provide doggy supervision I have varied experience, from watching puppies to helping out older dogs, along with caring for dogs who have mobility issues and/or limited eyesight.

“Kumar was amazing. Very young and took a huge responsibility of watching my babies for an emergency trip to Texas. He came even though I did not have a long time for the trip. Watched and took care of my art babies! Very much worth going on rover for. I could have kenneled them but they have anxiety. Boi, had the worst anxiety and constantly whines. But he had no issues and that gave me peace of mind and soul! If we ever need to go anywhere, he will be the first person I call thru rover! Thank you!”

“Heather was a delight to meet. She was responsive, sent several pet photos, and left an update note. she took Bijou on a couple of walks and played with the kitties. The house was in good shape and the pets seemed happy when I returned. I would definitely ask Heather to watch my furry kids again.”

About: For over 15 years, I've dedicated myself to fostering dogs, gaining extensive experience with all breeds, large and small. My passion lies in building trust and genuine relationships with each individual dog, understanding that every pup needs unique attention and companionship. I've supported countless dogs through challenging times, including post-surgical recovery for puppies and severe medical conditions, always offering unwavering love. I view dogs as cherished members of the family who look to me for care and guidance. Their safety is paramount; I'm always prepared to protect my pups, even if it means putting myself at risk At the moment I am a behavioral technician dog dad. I take care autistic children and care for any pups when ever you need me. I have a fenced in backyard for your dog to play and one dog of my own to keep them company. The dogs are allowed to relax wherever they like, especially the couch!
