“Cam was a total lifesaver! I needed a last-minute sitter for my dog, Maverick, because my husband was out of town and I was starting a new job. Cam came over to meet us beforehand and asked all the right questions to make sure Mav was well-cared for. Throughout the stay, I got plenty of updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Cam took him on great walks, played ball at the park, and gave him all the cuddles he could handle. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Cam again whenever Maverick needs a buddy!”


“Emily was great with our pups, even our super shy girl warmed up to her! We were gone for 6 days and came home to a clean house and 2 happy pups. It makes being away much more enjoyable when you know your furbabies are being well cared for. We will definitely hire Emily again!”

“Ashlyn was wonderful! I was gone for a week and she ensured it was stress free. Not only did she make sure my babies were well cared for, my home was as well. When there was a litter robot malfunction, Ashlyn handled perfectly and efficiently. We will definitely be utilizing her services again.”

“Michelle is great! This is the 2nd time using her. She is easy to communicate with and I can tell my dog is comfortable by the pictures she sends. She takes the time to make sure my dog gets enough exercise and play time too! Highly recommend!”

“It was great having Skyler watch our dog! He was very well cared for and looks like he got lot of love. Skyler spent a lot of time with our pup which was a plus as well. They left our house clean and followed all the instructions we left for our dog. We got updates with pictures while we were away as well. We would absolutely recommend Skyler and would love to rebook with them next time we need someone to house sit.”

About: Family, friends and coworkers have relied on me to take care of their pets while they’re on vacation or just a quick weekend getaway. I’ve been watching dogs for many years and love every second of it. I work 4 days a week but I am looking to make some extra cash on the weekends or a nice little walk after work. I love to make sure they feel comfortable whether that’s going for a long walk or playing in the house/backyard. Your dog will be spoiled with me!
“Ty stayed at our house for 10 nights and watched our 2 cats. He was absolutely amazing! I could tell he spent a lot of time with them because he knew so many of their likes and dislikes. He sent me pics every day and was always willing to share stories when I was missing them. He was very respectful of our home and kept things tidy! We will definitely be using him whenever we go away in the future!”


“Kate was great! She was available last-minute on a holiday weekend and she was flexible with her arrival and departure times. She communicated with me throughout her stay, sending photos and letting me know how my pets were doing. When we arrived home, our house was just as we left it and our pets were happy!”

“Olivia watched my dog Finley for my girlfriend and I while we were out of town for a long weekend. She took such amazing care of him and was so great about giving us regular updates on their adventures throughout the weekend. She was also so respectful of home and left it looking better than it did before you got there. I could not recommend her more for your pets, she will be our go to rover from now on!”

“Kelsey went above & beyond with my dog, Nalah!! She took her to the dog park, for multiple walks, and sent photo and video updates throughout the day. My dog was smiling ear to ear in each photo- Highly recommend. Will def be using Kelsey again!!”

“Lillie watched our two dogs in our home for 3 nights and 4 days. She did an excellent job. She gave updates a couple times a day. She also responded whenever I reached out. We would use her again.”

“We had Gen stay at our house for 4 days to watch our dog Stout and she did a great job! Stout bonded with her instantly and he didn't have any change in diet or mood when we were gone. We would definitely recommend her and plan on using her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors’, friends’, and even strangers’ pets! I’m very communicative with owners and strive to make sure owners know their fur babies are in trust worthy hands! I work nightshift full time but on my days off I have plenty of time to care for your pets whether that be a drop in, a walk, some play time, an overnight stay, or anything in between! Depending on what your pet needs I am happy to oblige. I’ve worked with pets who free roam in the house or need to be caged!

Kentwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Wonderful home pet sitter! Hannah was very easy and pleasant to communicate with. She took great care of my 9 month old puppy and two kitties. Hannah gave very nice updates (including photos) throughout the weekend and left my house very tidy. I recommend her services as a Rover sitter ☺️

Izabella was SUCH a blessing. She hung out with our girls (dog && cat) in our apartment. She was very attentive to them, responsive, and sent many photos throughout the stay. Detail-oriented for sure. She asked questions as needed to best take care of the girls. They looked like they totally loved her the photos. Our apartment was so clean and taken care of when we got back. We are so grateful for her!! Will absolutely be rebooking in the future. :)) THANK YOU IZABELLA

Our dog died right before we left town. Dannee was watching our cat. He is a rescue and had never been without us or the dog, so he was highly stressed and scared. Dannee had a very calming effect on him and he responded well - even cuddled. I felt the cat was safe and well taken care of with Dannee. She communicated the situations well so we didn't have to worry. We will rebook with Dannee.

Lauren did an excellent job of taking care of Freddie the house and all our deck plants I will definitely use her again in the next few weeks Freddie has some stomach issues we are working on and she followed his feeding schedule exactly She would be a great dog sitter for anyone
