About: I grew up in a house with dogs both large and small and having the responsibility of helping to care for them. When I moved into my current home and getting a dog was a possibility I went to the shelter and found my perfect buddy. I love dogs and they are an important part of my life. I like to find things that engage my dog when he plays so he is stimulated mentally as well as physically. I hope this leads to a long and healthy life for him! I have always cared for animals and to be able to provide them with a happy and healthy life is a great joy. I have potty trained puppies, crate trained adult dogs, and taught tricks.

As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care and will treat them as if they were my own.
“Brittany did an excellent job watching our boys. She was very responsive before and during her in home visits. Very sweet with our boys and made sure we had updates on them. Very highly recommend her for watching your pets.”

“Erin watched my kitties on short notice and I'm very grateful. She was careful to follow instructions and even managed to give my stubborn cat medicine (I was semi-okay with him missing a dose, but ask her to at least try) and make friends with my very shy kitty. It was all very reassuring and I would definitely recommend.”

Ivy was amazing, she booked me last minute when I had to go into the hospital, took amazing care of both my 80lb dogs and walked them even though they are not the easiest walkers LOL. Sent pictures, gave updates and even allowed me to add an extra drop in last minute due to my emergency. I would definitely book with her again. Thank you so much!

Nurra was wonderful with my two dogs! I made a last-minute request, and she was kind enough to accommodate it, which I really appreciated. She was professional, polite, and a great communicator throughout the drop-in visits. She even went the extra mile by taking the dogs for a walk. I felt comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands and would happily recommend Nurra to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

Shelly was absolutely exceptional with Tommy! 🐾❤️ She accommodated him in every way he needed and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. I felt completely at ease leaving Tommy in her care, which meant so much to me. She was attentive, caring, dependable, and truly awesome with him. If I could give her 6 stars, I would! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend Shelly and would definitely trust her with Tommy again. Thank you so much, Shelly, for taking such wonderful care of my baby! ❤️🐶

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Inkster 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. 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 .
