About: I’ve always had a dog to take care of while growing up and It has turned me into the dog lover that I am today. I’ve always rescued dogs from the shelters and I know that time, dedication and lots of patience is the key to a happy dog. I’ve worked with dogs needing help overcoming anxiety/separation issues. It is a tough job, but very rewarding. Dogs have always been a major part of my life! I am available most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays! I may be available some Saturdays/Mondays. Please feel free to message me for more details. I’ve been walking our family dogs my whole life. My #1 first priority is their safety and security. We sit/pause when cars come by, etc.
“I needed a sitter for my 2 Huskies last minute and Sam was able to jump in and do an awesome job taking care of them for the day. Smart, on time does what she says, and the dogs love her. Can't ask for anything more. Will definitely be using her again for future dog sitting, thanks again!”
“Natasha D. is such a dog lover. Mertz adores her. She actually pays attention to my dog and isn’t on her phone the entire visit. She’s engaging and plays with him!! I would highly recommend her! I was looking for a Freind for him too not just a body to let him out and pee! Natasha D. Is it!! 😊”
“Thank you so much. Extremely last minute and Victoria did not disappoint. Great communication, she went above and beyond. I’m beyond grateful for her prompt response and making me feel at ease. Charlie showed no signs of stress when I came home. He was the same happy go lucky dog to greet me.”
“This was our first time using rover and we are very happy! Tatiana was flexible, super kind, professional and responsive. You can tell she loves her job and our dog warmed up to her quick! We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I volunteered at the Humane Society in college. I currently have a 2 year old Lab that I trained myself since he was a 3 month old puppy. I am a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s cuddles, long walks, or playtime in the yard, I’m here to provide love and attention just like you would. I’m reliable, communicative, and will treat your pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home full-time with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets lots of attention, stick closely to their usual routines, and provide care that feels consistent and comforting. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company throughout the day, I’m able to be present and attentive. In your home, I always treat the space with respect and care. I follow detailed instructions and stick to the pet’s routine to help them feel secure in their own environment. I keep communication open with updates, photos, and messages, so pet parents can relax knowing their pet is in good hands. I’m clean, responsible, and make sure your pet—and your home—are well cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of big, medium and small dogs. I own to dogs of my own. I’ve also owned and have cared for cats and kittens and rats. I have years of experience and one promise of total peace of mind. I don’t mind doing house chores as well. I work full-time remote and can work from anywhere that has wi-fi. My schedule is flexible allowing me to step away frequently to meet your pets needs and giving lots of loving. Leave me a list of your fur babies needs and I will make sure their needs are met with plenty of love and attention. I will send you pictures and provide daily updates at a minimum.
About: I raised my dog from puppy - senior (15yo). Including medications in the later years. I’ll love your dog like you do while you’re away! Currently working part-time and in pursuit of my certification in Medical Laboratory Science after completion of my Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Laboratory Diagnostics at MSU Pets will be looked after like I’d look after a child. All instructions left will be adhered to the highest degree to best suit you and your pets needs
“Our boy LOVES Brooke! She is very attentive and makes sure he does his business every time she comes to let him out. I feel very comfortable with her in my home- always locks the doors cleans up after herself. Broke leaves detailed evaluations with photos of our pup. 100/10!!”
About: I have owned dogs for 25 years and currently have two dogs of my own. Over the past few years I have have fostered and found homes for over 20 puppies through a local rescue. I am working from home and have flexibility in my schedule during the week. I am also available on weekends and evenings. As long as wifi is available I can stay at your home to care for your dogs. I would ensure the safety and comfort of your dogs first by listening to your directions and handling the dogs as instructed. My goal would be to have them feel comfortable in their home environment while you are away.

Independence Township pet parents share their Rover experiences
It was my first time using Brooke to watch my 2 large dogs and she was spectacular! On time, did things exactly as instructed, the dogs loved her and it was great not having to worry while being away. I'll definitely use her again when the opportunity arises. Thank you so very much!
Kristan has watched our dog Ghost every week for two years (since he was a puppy!) and we truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Kristan has treated Ghost like family—attentive, loving, and for us, she was incredibly reliable and always kept us in the loop. Whether it was a quick drop-in or a longer stay, we always knew our dog was in the best hands. Unfortunately, we have to move, and one of the hardest parts of leaving was saying goodbye to her. If you’re lucky enough to live nearby and have Kristan watch your fur animals, don’t hesitate—book her! She’s the absolute best, and we can’t recommend her highly enough.
Thank you so much. Extremely last minute and Victoria did not disappoint. Great communication, she went above and beyond. I’m beyond grateful for her prompt response and making me feel at ease. Charlie showed no signs of stress when I came home. He was the same happy go lucky dog to greet me.
It's my second time using Bella in 2 months and like the first time she is awesome! She did everything as requested at the promised times and made things simple and easy so I could not worry and focus on the things that took me away from my boys in the first place. Awesome sitter, spends times with the dogs and I will definitely be using Bella again in the future.
