About: I have had both cats and dogs in my life since I was born! I love animals and enjoy helping others care for their pets while they’re away. I have experience with administering medication and inhaler for cats with asthma, caring for pets with health issues, and pet-sitting for all types of personalities. I currently work full time so I can provide walks or visits during the week after 5pm. I prefer to house sit over the weekend to spend the most time with your pets. However, I am flexible to your needs as they arise! I always make sure to be patient with animals when providing care. I allow them to set boundaries and I follow their lead. I will whatever I can to make your pet feel as safe as possible while you are away!
“Melanie was great. She let me know when she was stopping by, spent time with my animals and shared pictures. My cats don’t usually come right up to strangers and they clearly felt comfortable with Melanie.”
“Monica was great with my kitties! I will definitely rebook with her for future visits. It was great to feel that my furbabies were well looked after while I was gone. Great, consistent communication - photos, videos, updates, etc. Highly recommend!”
“Kylie exceeded my expectations during a drop in visit with my 15 week old puppy. She is also very accommodating and great with communication. I’ll definitely request her for future visits!”
About: About me—I absolutely love all dogs. There’s nothing like coming home to kisses and a wagging tail! I have had Dalmatians for the past 20 years. I lost my Miss Dottie about a month ago. She was 14. I’m not ready for another forever furbaby, but I miss couch cuddling and walks around the neighborhood. I promise your furbaby will be spoiled! I am looking primarily for long weekends, Friday-Monday. I can maximize time at home with this schedule. I am open to extended stays (military, longer vacations, etc). Last minute requests are ok—life happens! I am comfortable with crating during the day or leaving your furbaby open to roam the family room and kitchen. Back yard play and a walk everyday. Kisses, cuddles, and of course a treat or two. I only accept dogs in my home that have been spayed/neutered. Please contact me before booking. I would like to talk/meet before confirming. Daily rate is for a 24-hour period. Additional fee for time outside of the 24-the period. Drop-off/pick-up available with additional fee.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. All shapes and sizes. From Guinea pigs to chickens, pugs to pitties! Rest assured knowing that your loving pets are being cared for by an experienced hand! I am a teacher so I am available in the afternoons and weekends. With holidays, or random days off I may have more availability. Just check in! I use Rover very frequently for my own pets, so I fully understand the need for respectful and loving care. Please feel free to leave as detailed instructions as needed ( I know I do! Lol).
About: I’m an ER nurse and paramedic looking to spend time playing, walking and caring for pets. Or house sitting. I typically am free 3-4 days a week as I work 3-12 hour shifts a week at the hospital. Naturally, I’m very compassionate and care very deeply about living beings. I also have had cats and dogs of my own. I’m 58, dependable, have my own car and am active. I work 3 days a week in the ER. Which leave 4 days a week to pet sit and walk dogs! I have a Honda Fit that I am not fussy about, a dog is welcome to take a ride to Belle Isle or to the dog park! Ideally I would sit in your home, but I’m sure if your dog or cat is friendly my family would love to have them overnight!
“My kitties appreciate Chetoya’s visits. They’re super shy but will come peek out and eat when they see her❤️❤️ She is responsible and always responds quickly. Thank you!”
About: I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for a variety of animals. I'm an avid animal caretaker attempting to get work experience and eventually get into veterinary school. I'm willing to work with any pet type(including exotic). I'm available on weekdays from 10 A.M to 7 P.M. and on weekends from 11 A.M to 5 P.M. Please note that my availability might change soon as I am getting ready for college and another full time job. My rates and services are; Dog walking: $20 for 20 minutes and $30 for 30 minutes and up. Drop ins: $15- $20 Grooming: $15 for small dogs and or/ cats. $20 for medium dogs. $30 for large dogs. I'm located on the east side of Detroit. Currently open schedule, most likely changing soon as I start working full time and prepping for college. Will keep my profile updated accordingly but open availability at the moment and same day appointments are welcome. I perform hourly check ins on all pets, making sure they're comfortable, clean and well fed. Fresh food, clean water, treats and space to play are always provided
“Khelsi cat sat for me for 21 days over the winter break. My cat is shy but she warmed up to Khelsi within a few days and began playing with her. Khelsi was very communicative with me throughout my time away and sent me lots of pictures and updates despite the fact that I was in a very different time zone and could not always respond to her right away. She also periodically cleaned up around my apartment and left a sweet gift for my cat and me when she left. This was my first long trip away from my cat and stopped being anxious about her because I knew she would be safe and cared for with Khelsi watching her. Thank you for everything, Khelsi!”
About: I’ve worked professionally with dogs in dog daycares in Detroit, Chicago, and New York, and I’ve also spent years as a dedicated dog walker and pet sitter in NYC. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs at once and have safely walked up to four dogs together. I have hands-on experience with leash manners and structured walking, including working alongside trainers who train police dogs. I understand proper leash etiquette, the “heel” command, and how to maintain calm, controlled walks — even with strong or energetic dogs. I’m naturally confident around dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve handled high-energy pups, nervous dogs, senior dogs, and even helped in situations involving illness or end-of-life care. I stay calm, observant, and focused on your dog’s safety and comfort at all times. I have two dogs of my own and truly treat every dog like family. My goal is always safety, a happy dog, and peace of mind for you. I'm a Digital Design contractor who works from home and at my own pace, so I have plenty of time for you and your fur babies and can work around your schedule. I have a large, fenced yard and a playful dog of my own. She is a young great dane, however, so when it comes to pet-sitting in my home, your dog must be comfortable playing with a large (105lbs), energetic, young female. I am happy to come to your home as well. I am respectful of your environment, I keep things clean and tidy, and I'll even water your plants.
“Jj is such a fantastic catsitter! She is incredibly caring and thorough, making sure both you and your pets feel comfortable and well taken care of. She's able to navigate any difficult situations that may arise and will always treat your pets as if they were her own. I always feel at ease knowing Jj is caring for my furry crew while I'm away. Highly recommend!”
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
“Tara was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, communicative, and so flexible when my return plans changed—I really appreciated how accommodating she was. Rosie clearly bonded with her right away and loved the walks, attention, and care Tara gave her. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Rosie was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Tara again—she’ll definitely be one of the first people I reach out to for future care!”
“Amazing she takes excellent care of our dogs and is very flexible with my schedule as I’ll have last minute bookings and cancellations. Can’t speak highly enough about her”
About: Fun loving person, I’ve had over thirty-five years of experienced loving and caring for dogs from tiny to XL-size dogs, from puppies to adult to special needs. I’ve been a doggie lover all my life. The joy is indescribable, still today the feeling of delight overwhelms me when it’s time for me to go home to my dogs just to see the enjoyment on their faces. I’ve always cared about the safety and well-being of all dogs and want to offer my love and home to the doggies that don't want to stay home alone. Also I want the owners to know that my house is very, very clean and is a super safe environment. I also have a cozy closed in patio sunroom and of course my home where they are free to walk around and make themselves at home. I also have a private room for shy dogs. I do ask for the dogs to be clean and free of fleas and ticks and to be house broken, but not a must. For a fee I can bathe your dog. If the dog is not house broken I do have various sizes of crates that I can assist you with potty training your pet. I want to offer you and your dogs a happy, healthy more sociable and more balance life by sharing my love and safe home when needed while you are at work or away.

Have had the pleasure of Heather watching our cats for multiple trips at multiple lengths. She’s incredibly thorough and thoughtful, deeply caring of the animals wellbeing and heath and trustworthy. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you, Heather!
Liana was wonderful! It was very easy to communicate with her during the booking process and she was great with my kitties. She was always on time and made sure to include all the cats in the update photos. She also gave them lots of attention when visiting and cleaned the litter boxes. Highly recommend using her if you need someone reliable and friendly.
Jaida provided excellent care for my cats on two occasions. I appreciated her sending me updates and photos after each visit. She followed the routine and care instructions well and the cats seemed relaxed when I returned. I was very pleased with the service and would highly recommend Jaida. Thanks again!
I could not have asked for a better sitter for my cats. Dan was wonderful. He had to administer meds and feed them. He provided me multiple updates daily. My house was safe. He must have created a safe space because my cats stopped hiding from him and let him pick them up. I will forever be thankful for Dan. I was really stressed as my one cat was ill before I left but Dan made me feel so much better about leaving. Well worth the price
This was my first time using a pet sitter and I will definitely be calling Cheryl the next time I need someone to watch my cats. We hit it off and, maybe more importantly, one of my cats took to her right away, the other was less trusting but her behavior improved by the end of Cheryl’s visits.
Very thankful to have someone who understands the bully breed so well take care of my older bulldog. Understanding the mentality of a bulldog is really important to be able to take care of my big guy because he really is his breed through and through. Stubborn but sweet. Loved the picture updates and look forward to hiring Erika again.
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!
