“I recently hired Annika to take care of my cat for the first time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! My cat liked her and formed a good connection. Annika’s calm and gentle approach immediately put my cat at ease, and they quickly bonded. Seeing my cat connect with her was reassuring, as his well-being is my top priority. Throughout the pet-sitting period, Annika provided exceptional care ensuring my cat's needs were met. Annika went the extra mile by engaging my cat in interactive play sessions and providing him with affection and companionship. I highly recommend Annika as a cat pet sitter. Her professionalism, genuine love for animals, and ability to form a great connection with my cat were outstanding. Thank you Annika!”

About: I'm a young professional that works from home and have some extra free time and LOVE caring for dogs. So this is the perfect opportunity for me and I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs on Rover, after graduating from undergrad I took up dog sitting and I have watched homes and pets while family is out of town since then. I am very flexible and reliable and would have a great time with your pet! Why I love dog sitting: I had a dog who I was extremely close with and since his passing I miss a dog's companionship. Because of school and work I'm not able to take care of a dog full time so in the meantime I would love to keep yours company! I’m currently working from home and on my own schedule so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and give them lots of attention! How I care for pets varies on the individual pup or cat. Every one of them have their own special needs so I will be sure to be informed and have notes on the stay before booking.
“This was my second time booking with Khelsi. She was great with my cat just like the first time and was very accommodating of my ever-changing schedule. I truly appreciate Khelsi’s flexibility despite her having a packed schedule”
“Very reliable and professional. We will definitely ask for Nicoletta’s help again! My dogs loved her the second she walked in the door. They’re a little wild but she was great with them.”
About: I’ve been tasked with caring for family dogs including walks since I was 10, ranging in size from little chihuahuas to large golden doodles. I have ample experience with pets that have specific dietary needs and medications. I know how to handle reactive dogs on walks, keeping them and others safe even in high stress moments. I live in Jefferson Chalmers and work part time, so I can accommodate your schedule. I’m in north Detroit and South Oakland & Macomb county frequently as well. I am happy to follow access instructions and care for your pets from the comfort of their home. Upon the first meeting, I make myself quiet and comfortable in a pet’s home so they are in charge of our meet and interaction. Between shy cats and reactive dogs, I’ve learned how to foster safe environments for all kind of pets. I hope to build relationships with pets so you can have more peace of mind leaving them in my care!
About: I have been pet-sitting since I was a little kid, and grew up with a mom as a vet, so a love of animals and concern for their well-being is deep in my bones. I was a volunteer at an animal shelter for three years, fostered cats and dogs for four, years, and currently have two cats of my own (and a menagerie of frogs and toads). I love caring for cats, dogs, rodents, fish, and exotics of all ages. :) I work full time, so I can drop in early in the morning or evenings. Weekends are typically open and more flexible. I have a car and can come to you. I am happy to care for your fur friend in your home. I like to meet them ahead to build trust and will go all-in on playtime. Let m know if you need plants watered too!
“From the minute I met Abbey, I knew my dog would be well cared for. She came over for a “meet and greet”, was so easy to talk to, asked all the right questions. This was my first time using a drop-in pet sitter, but as my dog gets older, it’s becoming a better way to do things. Abbey loves animals, enjoys her job and has integrity… couldn’t ask for more!”
“Our dogs love Dana! We knew our dogs were in great hands while we were out. Dana was right on time and sent us updates and pictures. We were a little nervous leaving because our one pup doesn’t like thunder and storms were in the area, but Dana was great and made sure Cento wasn’t scared. 😊”
About: Grew up on a hobby farm with dogs, cats, horses and chickens. Since embarking on my career, I adopted several cats that travel with me :) Looking forward to giving your pet the attention it deserves. I am a work from home consultant who can take key breaks throughout the day. Though I do travel occasionally for work, stopping by your house or having them visit my house would add to the day! Trudeau is my sweet kitty who rules the house. He typically avoids other animals when they visit. My house also has a small, enclosed yard for quick pet needs
About: Hi there! My name is Madison and I’m a lifelong dog lover with a pup, Louie of my own. I’ve lived with dogs pretty much my whole life and have experience dog sitting from Michigan to Manhattan! I’m very active and engaged and would love to care for your fur baby—from walks to games to a snuggle on the couch. Because I work from home, I am very flexible and able to work with the needs of any client. Having had dogs my whole life, I understand the importance of working within a dog’s schedule for walks, potty breaks, and mealtimes. I live close to a dog park in a very walkable neighborhood, with a friendly pup of my own if your dog enjoys having a companion!
About: With 15+ years of pet care experience you can be sure your four legged friends are in capable hands! I am available to walk dogs and do drop-in visits for cats and/or dogs. I'm happy to get some exercise and face time with your buddy as well as to administer any medication or special food they need. They'll be treated how I would want someone to treat my fur buddies Candi (my 7 y.o. rescue staffy with anxiety) and Barbara (my 5 y.o. rescue cat with FIV). I recently took a severance at my full time job and am looking to have a flexible schedule until after the birth of my firstborn in the fall. I will provide good, long walks for your buddy. If you need drop-in services I can feed them, give them medication and spend some hang time according to their needs and your preferences.
About: I’ve been walking my neighbors and family’s dogs for years and I’ve also done dog sitting and house sitting as well! I love meeting new fur babies because I can’t have any of my own! ( we can’t have doggies in our rental 😞) Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I currently work Thursday through Saturday, which means I’m fully available Sunday through Wednesday for pet sitting, drop-ins, walks, or boarding. Even on my workdays, I have availability before and after my shifts to care for pets, give them attention, and keep their routine consistent. I enjoy spending my free time with animals, so pet care is something I genuinely look forward to each day! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family always with kindness, patience, and attention to their individual needs. In your home, I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I make sure to keep your home clean and your pet happy while you’re away. If your pet stays with me, they’ll enjoy a calm, loving environment with plenty of attention, play, and rest. I offer a safe, pet-friendly space and follow any instructions you provide to maintain consistency. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands!

Katie K.
“I’m thrilled to share my positive experience with Katie! She is a gem of a dog sitter. From the moment I dropped off my dog, it was evident that she has a genuine passion for animals. The presence of a cat, who was surprisingly dog-friendly, added an extra layer of companionship for my pet. The spacious backyard was a doggy paradise, offering ample room for play and exercise. What truly stood out was the Katie’s remarkable patience and affection. They took the time to understand my dog's needs and provided a loving environment that felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for more than just a pet-sitting service. It's a haven where your furry friend will be showered with care, attention, and plenty of playtime."”

Evan C.
“I would highly recommend Evan for taking care of your pets! He's been a great help walking my pit bull when I don't have time. She's a bit high strung and can be reactive to other animals and Evan handles all that very well. It's reassuring to know I can rely on him to be responsible and proactive in managing my dog's needs and personality... plus she absolutely adores him!”
Adam M.
“Adam was great communicating and following instructions. Luna got treats and all were well cared for.”
Hannah G.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Hannah, the young lady who cares for my two sweet Frenchies and my beautiful Maine Coon cat. From the very beginning, she has been nothing short of a blessing. She is incredibly prompt and reliable — always showing up exactly when she says she will, which gives me such peace of mind. What truly sets Hannah apart is the deep compassion she shows for my fur babies. It’s clear she doesn’t just “watch” them — she genuinely loves them. My pets absolutely adore her, and I can see how calm, comfortable, and happy they are whenever she’s around. Beyond her care for the animals, Hannah is respectful, thoughtful, and professional with the humans involved. She communicates clearly, listens attentively, and always goes the extra mile to ensure everything runs smoothly. Trusting someone with your pets is no small thing, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found someone as responsible, warm, and trustworthy as Hannah. She is truly a gem!”
Jefferson Chalmers pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lauren was great, communicative, took all of my dog’s very special needs into consideration and kept me informed every step of the way. Have already booked her again for an upcoming trip and I feel 100% confident in her capabilities and professionalism and my dog’s comfort and knowledge of her as a drop in care taker for him while I’m away.
Our dogs love Dana! We knew our dogs were in great hands while we were out. Dana was right on time and sent us updates and pictures. We were a little nervous leaving because our one pup doesn’t like thunder and storms were in the area, but Dana was great and made sure Cento wasn’t scared. 😊
It was our first time having Megan watch our cat and we were very happy with the experience! She was very personable and great to work with. Her check in reports were very detailed and left us at ease knowing our cat was in good hands while we were out of town. We would not hesitate to have Megan cat sit for us again!
We booked a week-long request with Sydney, with morning/evening visits. We were nervous to be away from our cat for so many days, but Sydney provided many updates and pictures during their time together that we knew he was spending quality time with a kind friend. I’m sure our cat is excited to see Sydney again for the next time she visits, she is very caring and in tune with his needs!
Nicoletta did amazing! I was unsure how things would go as our pup is dear reactive around her people, but Nicoletta took her in stride and it sounds like our pup began warming up to her by her 3rd visit. Absolutely would hour again. Loved getting to see all the pictures taken each day. Everything made me feel so much at ease while missing our babe. HIRE THIS LADY! 🥰
