9. Ashton B.
About: Hi, I'm Ashton! I grew up with both cats and dogs and truly love both, as well any other furry/scaly/feathery animal you might have. I was also a nanny for about 8 years and in addition to caring for the children and the home, I took care of the pets of each family I worked for. I have experience with puppies and kittens to older, slower animals and always cater my care to a pet's unique needs and personality. I'm more than happy and able to assist with any medication administration, training, and exercising of high-energy dogs. As someone with a million photos of my cats and dog, I will also make sure you get the cutest shots of them living their best lives while you are away. Over the years of experience with child, home, and pet care, I have proved myself to be reliable and flexible and hope to gain your pets' and your trust. I look forward to meeting you! I have a flexible schedule and can be available any day of the week for drop-ins, walks, and overnights. Whether it's early mornings or late nights, I can be your reliable source for pet care! I never rush an animal to be comfortable with me but will gladly give them the love and attention they need when they're ready! I always make sure to listen closely to any guidance given to me by pet owners to make every visit go smoothly.

“Marissa is amazing!! During our meet and greet, she was very attentive and asked thoughtful questions that showed me she is well-versed in dog behavior. Her communication is prompt and friendly, and I could tell my dogs adored her!!”


11. Lizabeth W.
“Liz W. loves animals. She cared for our boxer for two weeks during the dog flu pandemic a year and a half ago when we were advised not to board him. We had the trip planned prior to our adoption of Chance. Liz to the rescue!! She took great care of our home and Chance. Occasionally she will call to say hi and Chance goes nuts when he hears her voice.”




12. Joseph O.


“Joe was great! I booked him to walk Graé several times while I flew to Detroit for an interview. Unfortunately, Graé suffered a dog attack the day before I was set to leave so that added a little more burden on Joe than anticipated. Joe walked, fed and administered Graé's meds in the evening and the morning. To make sure they got along Joe stopped by my place the night before for a meet and greet with my pup. While gone, Joes sent photos and updates to his time with him; I great help! I will definitely be using joe again if the need arises and he's available.”


13. Randi K.

“Randi is wonderful and I highly recommend her to other loving pet parents out there! From the introduction to scheduled walks, Randi remains compassionate and caring to my pups! I wish I could take her with me to my upcoming move LOL!”


14. Breanna W.
“Breanna is a very active and loving dog mom! She has a golden and a cat and they are very cared and loved! She is a great pet sitter she has even taken care of my animals and always keeps them happy and healthy!”


15. Christine G.
“Christine has been an incredible pet sitter for the past six years, and I couldn’t ask for anyone better to care for my dog. She is reliable, attentive, and truly treats my dog like her own. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or just giving extra love and attention, Christine always goes above and beyond. I never have to worry when my dog is in her care because I know they’re in the best hands. If you’re looking for someone who is responsible, trustworthy, and genuinely loves animals, I highly recommend Christine!”

About: Grew up with a cat. Currently enjoy having split custody of a dog (joining Rover because I miss her during off times). My vet is local. At home and fully available Friday - Monday. Home during nights only on Tuesday - Thursday. Will work with you on pickup/drop off timing (flexible work schedule). Very attentive. Not accustom to crating. Appreciate reasons for long walks and have a nervous personality so I guarantee your dog/cat would be both happy and well cared for.
