About: I bring 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’m an active person who loves long walks and can even keep up with high-energy dogs on runs. As a medical student, I’m attentive, responsible, and quick to notice changes in behavior or health, so your dog is always in safe, capable hands. Above all, I’m kind, dependable, and treat every dog like my own My schedule is flexible! I’m available on weekends and after 5pm on weekdays, and since I work rotating shifts, I often have full weeks off where I can offer even more daytime availability. I tailor my care to each dog’s routine and needs. For walks and drop-ins, I focus on making sure dogs get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention—whether that’s long walks, playtime, or even a run for higher-energy pups. For sitting, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive to behavior and comfort, and I always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure your dog feels happy and cared for while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Arica. I have been taking care of pets for many years. I love animals, especially dogs. I don’t have any kids and most of my time is spent at home. I do have a job but it is all remote and I can control the days and hours I work. I will treat your fur babies like my own and will make sure your house is looking as good as you left it. If you agree to let me take care of your babies I will do the best in my power to make sure they are safe and comfortable. Message me if you have any questions. Thank you 😊 I work for a company that is remote. I have full control of the scheduling and when I work. So there would be no problem fitting it in to my routine! I make sure to treat them like family. I take care of the home as well. I would follow all of owners guidelines for walks, crating, and administering medication. Always making sure your pup is safe, having a tight hold onto leashes when walking!

Izabella was so great with coco. I had a last minute request when her longtime caregiver could no longer care for her. I had set up care through another person on rover and they cancelled which left me just two days to find someone. Izabella sent me her work hours so I could coordinate drop ins and walks to work with cocos schedule. She came the next day for a meet and greet. While I was away she gave great photos and updates. She even offered to take out the trash and put some salt down. She offered an additional check in if needed the day we were coming back which was wonderful since our plane got delayed. Would definitely recommend her!

We had a fantastic experience with Chelsey! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my cat Fauna. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while away for the holidays. Fauna was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. I appreciate Chelsey’s attention, kindness, and professionalism, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter.

Savannah was an amazing solution to my fairly last minute request to feed, walk and play with my pup. She was extremely professional and clearly great with dogs. She gave us updates via text and sent multiple pictures of our pup to let us know everything was okay. I would definitely recommend her services and will book her again the next time I need dog sitting services!

William did a great job looking after our cats, especially with such a last minute booking. He was responsive to us and our needs and willing and able to engage both cats. Both cats seemed to respond well to him and seemed able to administer their meds with no problems. We will be sure to book William again, if he's available, but have no need yet.

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. My dad used to help help run a rescue for several years, and we had many dogs of varying breeds and ages in our home. I currently have one dog named Alvin who was born in 2022. He is a yellow lab with a lot of energy! I am venturing into the working world, and this is my only role. My availability is wide open and I'm willing to help when needed! I have a small fenced in area under our deck where my dog relieves himself. I go for walks and there is a dog park very close to the house. My dog has extreme crate anxiety, so he isn't created. I am comfortable helping to ensure your pet is created as necessary.

About: Hello! My name is Heidi. I own a house in the Vine neighborhood, have a fully fenced backyard and live just three blocks from Bronson hospital. I am a teacher during the school year and I enjoy doing dog sitting with my two kids on the weekends and all summer long. Dogs must be kid-friendly. We prefer dogs under 50 pounds but will accept a gentle giant. Im a teacher. So, I’m off all summer with my kids. We work together to care for dogs in order to save up money for something special. No need for a dog park. We have a fenced yard! Hi Dogs spend active time in our fenced backyard as well as quiet time resting with us inside the house. We have so much fun!

l have always been very impressed with the way that Lynn cares for my dog. She is very good at figuring out what she needs and following directions with how she’s normally cared for. She helped me out last minute this past time and really helped ease my mind with figuring out how to care for my dog while I was gone for the day. Thanks again!!

We had a last minute scramble for an out of town trip and had just adopted our dog from the local pound. Our long standing pet sitter retired and since we hadn’t had a fur kid in a while we had no contacts for help. I wasn’t leaving him in a kennel given the situation. So, we had a friend stay the night who could take care of the majority, but needed someone to let our dog out and play a bit during the day. I found rover and jumped on to find someone. We got a message from two sitters and diplomatically just went with the first person who messaged. We did a meet and greet, Our new dog liked her, so we took a chance. We did a two visits per day schedule. We just needed someone to roughly keep our times by showing up & be kind. Everything went smooth. No worries. We even got pictures! I would hands down rebook. Prompt, worked with our schedule, dog loved her, experienced, handled our pibble and his quirks… need I say more? We have found the best! We will absolutely rebook!
