“Katherine took great care of my two cats for the weekend. She did drop-in visits to feed them and clean the litter box. She sent pictures of them each visit. And had great communication about when she would arrive and leave so that I could arm/disarm the alarm system. Will use again!”
“Mark did an excellent job checking in on my cat while I was away! I will definitely be rebooking with him again in the future and would recommend him to others in the Ferndale area!”
“Callie did a wonderful job caring for our three cats with drop in visits. She sent lots of pictures and videos and I really appreciated that each visit she listed the tasks that she did that we requested (litter, water, etc.). Clearly a huge animal lover and a conscientious and compassionate person. And obviously our cats loved her.”
“Theresa dropped in twice a day to care for our cat while we were on vacation for 6 days. Izzy is very shy around people he does not know but by the 3rd day he was very comfortable with Theresa. Throughout the week we looked forward to the pictures that Theresa would send us of him getting head rubs, following her around, eating and talking. Additionally she gave him fresh water, cleaned the litter box and even brought in our mail for us. She did an exceptional job and we will definitely use her again. Thanks Theresa!!!”
“Audrey is my go-to every time I need someone to watch my cat. She sends the cutest pictures and updates. She is also great about communication around when she’ll be dropping in, if there are any changes to her schedule, etc. Thanks again Audrey!!”
“Hanna was awesome! She's responsible, hard-working and ethical. We were in the middle of the process of having our backyard fenced and had to use alternative methods to keep our energetic, large puppy contained which Hanna handled beautifully. He got out once to visit the neighboring dog and Hanna was quick to respond, track him down, get him home and not only fix his escape route but was creative in using what we did have to keep him happy and secure. She also took him on his first trail run and he loved it! We'll definitely be using Hanna again and we highly recommend her.”
“Ally has been great with Goose, very attentive and prompt communication to any needs or concerns and accommodating with meet and greet. Appreciate the drop ins and midday exercise he has really enjoyed it!”
“Emily was so sweet and kind! She took such great care of Georgia and kept me updated throughout the visit. I especially loved that she sent me pictures, it gave me so much peace of mind and I truly appreciated it! 🥰 She was super easy to communicate with and made the whole experience stress-free. I would 100% recommend Emily and would absolutely book with her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Andrea! 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years, from tiny kittens to senior pups who need a little extra TLC. I grew up with pets as part of the family, so I know they deserve love, patience, and attention just like we do. I work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule to spend plenty of time with your furry family member. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or making sure medication is given on time, I’m all about keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. Friends and family have trusted me for years to care for their pets while they’re away — and I treat every animal like my own. You can count on me for reliable communication, daily updates, and lots of cute photos while you’re gone.
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life. Growing up on a large family farm as a second-generation farmer’s son, I learned from my dad how to read animal behavior, provide attentive hands-on care, and keep every creature safe and healthy. Those early lessons gave me a deep understanding of animals that I still rely on today. Later, my years working as an emergency medical professional on an ambulance sharpened my ability to stay calm under pressure, think quickly, and handle unexpected situations effectively. I bring that same level of preparedness and composure to every dog in my care. I’m home full-time, which means your dog gets constant, attentive supervision and never feels alone. My home is basically a 24/7 dog park: a big, secure fenced backyard for safe free play, nutritious meals, fresh water, cozy beds, and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. My well-balanced pack is led by our nurturing mother hen Hatsy, gentle Koda, and playful foster pup Hudson is social, friendly, and excellent with new dogs. They help guests settle in quickly and feel right at home. I genuinely enjoy welcoming new furry friends and watching them thrive, play, and bond in our little pack. Whether it’s a few days or an extended stay, you can feel confident knowing your dog is with someone who truly loves animals, understands their needs, and is always prepared to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable. I’d love to chat, answer any questions, or set up a meet & greet so you can see for yourself! I’m home full-time every single day, all day, which allows me to provide constant, attentive care for every dog in my home. Your pup will never be left alone and will enjoy around-the-clock supervision, affection, playtime, and comfort. My daily routine revolves around the dogs. We start the day with breakfast and outdoor time in my large, secure fenced backyard, followed by plenty of play sessions, socialization with my friendly pack (Hatsy, Koda, and foster pup Hudson), naps in cozy beds, and lots of one-on-one attention. Evenings wind down with dinner, more yard time or gentle play, and quiet cuddle time. I genuinely love what I do and treat every boarding dog like part of the family. Whether it’s a short stay or an extended visit, your dog will be happily integrated into our 24/7 “dog park at home” lifestyle while receiving personalized care the entire time. I take safety and trust very seriously; your dog’s well-being is my top priority. My home is a calm, clean, and loving environment designed specifically for dogs. I’m home full-time every day, providing constant supervision so no dog is ever left alone. You’ll find a large, fully secure fenced backyard where dogs can run, play, and explore safely. Inside, there are plenty of cozy beds, fresh water, and a structured daily routine with nutritious meals, regular potty breaks, and lots of affection. My well-balanced pack, Hatsy (our nurturing mother hen and pack leader), gentle Koda, and playful foster pup Hudson is friendly, social, and excellent with new dogs. I carefully introduce every guest and supervise all interactions to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. With my background growing up on a family farm and years as an emergency medical professional, I’m especially skilled at reading animal behavior, staying calm in any situation, and handling anything that comes up quickly and effectively. I treat every dog like my own and build genuine trust with both pets and their families.
“We have booked Kelly several times to stop in and care for our cats but this is the first time we’ve asked her to help give one of our cats a pill. She was very attentive to our orange tabby and did great pilling him! Thanks so much Kelly. Aslan and Greta appreciate you! 😸”
About: I have had pets my entire life. I currently have two rescue dogs and two rescue cats of my own. I will spoil your pet as if they were mine and I’m happy to provide photos and or videos during my visit. I work full-time, but with enough notice I can also work remotely and stay with your pet if needed during the day. I am also available for drop ins as needed. I currently am unable to care for pets in my own home due to my pets personalities but am happy to watch them in their home environment.
About: I’ve been a pet mom for over 10 years! I’ve taken care of my 3 poodles for the past 10 years and recently became a new cat mom! I’ve also boarded pets for friends and family over the years. I’m comfortable giving medications, keeping up with feeding and potty routines, and making sure pets get plenty of love and attention. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! I am fully available to fit caring for pets anywhere in my schedule! I will do my best to be flexible and accommodating! I can work all hours of the day! I have 2 cats of my own who are provided with all of their necessities and most importantly an environment where they can be free to explore safely and play constantly! I care for my cats like they are my children! And I will do the same for yours.
About: My Husband and I welcomed my dog 7 years back in the family when we had no plan to have a pet but we just had to bring her home. I have trained her all by myself and received many compliments on how well-behaved my pet is. I have taken care of my friend's fur friends multiple times. Zusa gets along with pretty much everyone with a condition of them remembering who the queen is in the house lol there’s 40% chance of her playing with your pet but she’ll mostly mind her own business which noting everyone who stopped by- by the bay window that’s 10ft long. Your fur baby will be allowed there too after 24hrs of stay😊 we enjoy pets more than humans😜 which is why your pets likely to be cuddled here not just for the show. They’ll be treated as a cousin of Zusa visiting and nothing less than that. I work from home, so I have plenty of time to entertain your fur friend! I'm available on weekdays anytime after 10 am and accommodate them over weekends with some heads up. I have a fenced yard, lots of toys, and a Shitzu to give your pet company. I do have pretty much everything but a crate, so if you believe your pet will be more comfortable with that, then please bring it with you.
About: My first pet was my Persian we adopted from The Humane Society when I was a little girl. My second pet was my miniature poodle who was my BFF. I am the friend who keeps my friend’s pets for their weekend getaway and I’m always asking to pet a furry friend that I meet along my day. My schedule is currently flexible during the week and weekends. I am able to assist with drop ins and/or walks for your pet(s). Your pet will be taken care of as if they are my own. I am engaging with my fury friends and enjoy playtime and chatting with them. I am open to caring for potty trained and well adjusted pets and open to those who are on their potty training journey.
“Emily was so accommodating for our last minute booking of a drop-in visit on a holiday! I know the pups enjoyed her visit and their play time just from looking at their happy faces in the pictures! I would recommend her for anyone looking for a friendly sitter for their pets 😁”

Emily took wonderful care of Penny and kept us updated with each visit. I could tell Penny was happy comfortable and well cared for we really appreciated how responsible attentive and loving Emily was with Penny and would absolutely recommend her. We will definitely use her again.
We had an amazing experience with Dany! She was absolutely wonderful with our two babies, Peanut and Shayla (our pit and pit mix). From the very beginning, she was kind, personable, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. For every drop-in visit, Dany sent us pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy and well cared for. She went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and loved. We even accidentally forgot to feed the dogs before leaving, and Dany had no problem stepping in and taking care of it for us. Her willingness to help and attention to detail truly meant a lot. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. Peanut and Shayla were in great hands, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Dany to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lathrup Village choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
