“Our two beagles had a great stay with Rex and family. We loved getting photo updates and could tell they felt right at home. They came home happy and tired out from all the playtime.”
“Sarah was wonderful from start to finish! She watched my GSD overnight on NYE and was wonderful with communication leading up to and then while he was with her. I received so many pictures and videos of him, it was very appreciated and put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her! My dog was whooped when he came home from having fun playing with her dogs. He slept the whole rest of the day and we LOVE a sleepy german shepherd lol”
“Sarah was great! We had an emergency that delayed us and Sarah was able to accommodate that for us at last minute. We were so thankful. We would definitely ask her to watch Hermes again.”
“Willo was absolutely great with Kobe kept me updated with pictures and just did an awesome job my dog really enjoyed the company of her dogs and atmosphere surrounding her area.. I would choose her anytime”
“Natasha was excellent, she truly loves animals and cared for my dog. She communicated with me everyday I was gone on how my dog was doing with pictures. Emi loved being there. I will be using her again in June! Thank you Natasha!”
“Wow, what can I say… Jill ( & Sunny :))was amazing with our 4 yr old yellow lab, Callie! She was so loving and all about making a great experience for Callie. Her home was perfect and such a nice setting back near a nice river with a large yard with a fenced in area as well. Our dog could use her doggy door (once she got the hang of it ;) )and go outside to the fenced in yard and play/potty/whatever ….as she needed. Jill was great about taking walks, letting her swim in the river at her property, having playtime and providing constant attention and love. And her dog Sunny is so loving and was a great playmate for Callie. :). Such a reassuring feeling to have her with Jill while we traveled. Knowing she was getting constant attention, love, care, exercise, and play. I will never use a kennel or doggy care center again as long as Jill is available, thanks Jill ! :-)”
“I’ve used Andrew twice now and could not recommend him any more highly! He and his wife were very responsive and clearly took great care of my dog. I think she was a little sad to leave actually!!”
“Paige was amazing! My 3 dogs had a blast at her house and looked like they loved her huge yard. She sent pictures every day which I appreciated! I will absolutely use her again if I am in the area!”
“Luke and his family went above and beyond caring for our Yogi. They have a large fenced in backyard and a host of other animal friends that Yogi fell in love with. Our Yogi has a tendency to pee on himself vs the ground and they bathed him before pickup. My toddler wouldn’t stop asking us to smell the dog on the way home. Thank you Luke and family! We will use you every time we need to head West to Wisconsin.”
About: I can guarantee you peace of mind. I have a long history of caring for animals. I grew up around dogs, cats, and farm animals, and over the years I’ve gained hands on experience supporting special‑needs pets, senior animals, and those who require extra patience, structure, or medical attention. It is my personal philosophy that animals are truly happy when all three core needs are met: Physical health — exercise, nutrition, and safe routines Mental health — enrichment, stimulation, and confidence‑building Social health — connection, communication, and companionship As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find a sitter you can trust and depend on. With me, your animal will receive individual attention, thoughtful care, and support tailored to their age, personality, and any special requirements. Book a free meet & greet with me to see if we’re a good fit for you and your pet. I work from home Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, which makes boarding a great fit for my routine. I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. In the evenings, I’m available for drop‑ins and walks, so your pet can still get attention, exercise, and support even after my workday ends. This schedule allows me to give pets a stable, predictable routine with plenty of interaction and individualized care. When pets stay in my home, they get a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention throughout the day. I work from home 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday, so I am able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, enrichment, and companionship. I also have a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs a safe space to explore, play, and relax. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any special needs or senior care requirements. In my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I offer drop ins and walks in the evenings and on weekends, making sure pets get fresh water, meals if needed, exercise, mental stimulation, and any required medications or mobility support. I always send updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing. My goal in both settings is to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for, whether they are staying with me or I am coming to them.
About: Hi, I’m Ellen! 🐾 If your dog is family, we’re already on the same page. ❤️ I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pup. I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m currently a proud dog mom to King, a big goofy pit bull mix who keeps me laughing and on my toes. I also had the privilege of caring for my beloved Yoda, who will always be a very special part of my heart. My experience with both of them has taught me just how different every dog can be—and how important patience, consistency, love, and lots of belly rubs are. Whether your pup needs a long walk, some playtime, medication reminders, cuddles on the couch, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone else, so communication is a big priority for me. I’m happy to send photos, videos, and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is happy, safe, and loved. Your dog’s routine stays their routine. I’ll follow your instructions, respect their personality and boundaries, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection while you’re away. I can’t promise I won’t fall in love with your dog… but I can promise I’ll give them the same care and attention I’d want for King. 🐶❤️ I’d love to meet you and your pup! 🗓️ Schedule I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding and daycare, including weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pup’s normal schedule and needs. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog, King, who loves having a buddy around. Since I work from home, I’m able to keep a close eye on the pups in my care and give them plenty of attention throughout the day. I’ll follow your care instructions, respect your dog’s boundaries, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home.
About: I've worked as a vet assistant, at a pet store, as a groomer, as a vet concierge, volunteered and at a animal shelter. I have also been dog training, walking, daycare, boarding and pet/dog sitting and grooming for years. I've also fostered many dogs, animals are such a passion of mine! I do work like this very often so I am able to be with your sweeties as much as possible! Feel free to reach out to me! I always monitor and take as best care of them possible. Excercise when they need, rest when they need, potty, food etc. If your pets have a schedule I'll stick to it. If not well then tell me what you'd like and call it done!
“We are so lucky to have found Heather! She gives daily updates of our pets and sends videos and pictures, which makes our time away a lot less difficult. She truly cares about our pets!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has been caring for pets since I was 14 years old. Over the years, I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, and other animals for friends, family, and neighbors, and I truly treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and loving while also following your pet’s routine and needs closely. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and safe presence, I’m happy to provide care that fits their personality. I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m happy to communicate regularly with updates and photos so you always know how your furry family member is doing. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work part-time and am currently completing my master’s degree online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be home often. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day rather than pets being left alone for long periods. When pets stay in my home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and cared for. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and rest. I know consistency helps pets feel secure, especially when they are away from their owners. I provide plenty of attention, supervision, and affection based on each pet’s personality and comfort level. Whether a pet enjoys being active and playful or prefers a quieter, relaxed environment, I adjust my care to meet their needs. I also make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a clean environment, and a safe space to rest. I take safety very seriously and monitor pets closely while they are in my care. I am happy to follow any specific instructions, including medications, crate routines, or special care requests. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and reassured while they are away.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for several years for several families and love it so much! I have two dogs and two cats of my own that I love so much! I have experience with all different types of dogs and even have to give an insulin shots everyday to one of the dogs I watch. Your furry friend will be in amazing care I have a very open schedule and available almost all the time. I’m a college student all online this semester so I’m home all the time to take care of your pets! I live in a house with a yard(not fenced) and live a mile away from a park and hiking trails if your pup would like that! I live in a nice neighborhood good for walks! And have two pups who are friendly with dogs and cats as well as two cats who are friendly!
About: I’m a caring and dependable pet owner with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, maintaining routines, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior and always prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I currently work 8-5pm M-F at y full time job, but I am available before and after those times as well as on the weekends. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions closely. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, a clean and safe environment, plenty of attention, and regular walks or playtime. I’m also respectful of clients’ homes and will provide updates so you know your pet is safe and happy.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kalamazoo
We had such a great experience with our sitter! We needed someone to watch our dogs on short notice, and they were incredibly accommodating and helpful. This was our first time using Rover, and they were so patient with us and helped guide us through the whole process, which made everything so much easier. They also sent us updates every night, which gave us peace of mind knowing how the dogs were doing while we were away. Most importantly, our dogs came home super calm and tired, which tells us they had a great time and were well taken care of. We really appreciated how communicative and caring they were and would definitely book with them again!
Amanda is a gift for anyone who feels nervous to leave their pup(s). Her home and yard are so welcoming, she is invested and kind, and very professional. She communicates the perfect amount, sends plenty of pictures, and demonstrates genuine love and care. My two goldens loved their time with her, appreciated her yard a ton, and loved being treated as if they were her own (snuggles galore)! Will definitely be booking again.
Jordan was amazing with Justice. Very committed to what he does and very passionate about dogs. My dog has never been around pets she didn’t know so I was nervous at first but he truly took care of my dog and I could tell by how she was with him. I highly recommend him if you’re looking for someone you trust your dog around. Thanks Jordan
Jenai and Sean were absolutely wonderful with Fiona. It was our first time booking with them. Jenai was very good at communicating and keeping up updated. They were very thoughtful throughout the entire stay. I had the opportunity to relax and enjoy my vacation, and I got back a very happy doggie. Sasha their goldendoodle also welcomed Fiona with a warm heart into her home. Jenai, Sean and Sasha thank you so much for caring so well for Fiona. We look forward to our next stay with you all!
Stephen and his two male cats made out 9-year-old tuxedo cat feel right at home. It was nice that his non-smoking home had a patio door that she could look out, and an extra carrier to bring all the pets to shelter in case of a tornado warning. We plan to use Stephen again for our little princess.
Kaity and family made the process very smooth. It was great to have a meet and greet in advance as well. I appreciated her quick responses to my messages, as well as having Zoey so warmly welcomed in her home. This is our first time using Rover for care and we will definitely do so again.
Ryan took care of my two dogs for an overnight stay at their home, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. From the start, I felt completely secure leaving the girls in their care, which says a lot—especially since one of my dogs is 13 and has a lot of feelings and specific needs. Ryan showed so much understanding, generosity, patience, and empathy with her, and it meant the world to me. The girls settled in quickly, and Ryan sent photos of them snuggling shortly after I left and continued sharing updates throughout their stay because they knew how important that would be to me. Ryan never made me feel like my questions, check-ins, or verifications were too much—in fact, they reassured me many times (even saying “data is my jam” 😊), which made the whole experience feel easy and supportive. When I picked the girls up, they were excited to see me, but once I sat down with Ryan to talk through how everything went, they quickly settled again—which told me they truly felt comfortable and safe there. It’s very clear Ryan genuinely cares for the dogs they watch and treats them like their own. I had absolutely no concerns while the girls were with them, and Ryan will absolutely be our go-to resource from here on out. I’m so grateful we found them.
We cannot say enough good things. They have taken wonderful care of our two dogs and have been consistently amazing hosts. The dogs get excited when we pull in and seem genuinely happy to be staying with them. We appreciate the regular picture updates, giving us peace of mind. They’ve been flexible and helpful when we’ve had delays or travel disruptions. Overall, we could not recommend them more highly and plan to continue using them as our dog sitters indefinitely.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
