“It was just a first meet-and-greet, but Rebekah communicated clearly, was friendly, and seemed to put Ralphie at ease. Will definitely contact her for future drop-in and house sitting needs!”
About: I've raised and cared for my baby dog Lola also known as lolanaptimepartygirl since I was 10, pets have always played a very important role in my life. I love animals of all kinds and ages having 4 senior dogs of my own. I believe all animals deserve love and respect as they are not only friends but family, and it is truly an honor to get to exist in a world where we are able to connect with and care for such beautiful kind creatures. I work a part time job that's pretty flexible so I'm relatively available whenever. My schedule changes weekly so just let me know what you need and I'll make it work! I have a fenced in yard and gates that are available to be set up throughout the house. I am also able to crate your pet if needed.
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and administrating medication, and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs, whether that means an active walk, playtime, or extra cuddles. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands and being treated like family. Caring for pets fits well into my weekly routine. I work from home most of the week and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to take walks, provide drop-in visits, and spend quality time with pets throughout the day. I enjoy being active and getting outside, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to. Other than occasional client meetings, I can easily adjust my schedule to match your pets needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. I believe dogs do best when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I’m providing a walk, drop-in visit, or house sitting, I take the time to learn your dogs needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection, along with regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Emily was awesome. She was able to provide great drop-in care for my cat while I was away. She has obvious compassion for animals and makes sure they are well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”
About: I've had dogs all my life, I've also been a sitter for dogs periodically over the last 20 years. My dog would love to have more friends around and I have an unlimited amount of love to give for all the doggos of the world. I work remotely from home (only occasionally go into the office), so I'm almost always available to dogsit, visit, walk - whatever is needed for your dog. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for dogs to run around. I also live in a friendly and safe neighborhood. I also have flexibility to accommodate your dog's specific needs.
About: Our family absolutely adores dogs. We have experience boarding up to several weeks at a time while owners are on vacations. Your pup will be pampered with snuggles and love. Our home has a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run around. I currently work weekdays, so Friday at 6 PM until Sunday at 7 PM is completely available for overnights or daytime visits. Also available for walks after 6 PM Monday through Thursday. I have a fenced in backyard and will keep your dog within sight at all times. My home comes with 2 assistants; my 8 and 11 year old sons who LOVE dogs and will play endlessly with your pet.
“Ally was amazing! She took such great care of my two cats. 🐈 🐈⬛ She sent fantastic detailed updates and lots of photos on every visit. Ally really went above and beyond. I am super grateful I found her. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m active, reliable, and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I love going on long walks, giving pets attention and playtime, and making sure they feel safe and happy. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, and detail-oriented, and I’ll always communicate clearly with pet parents and provide updates throughout visits! I am a full time teacher so I am available most evenings starting at 5pm and available some weekends. I am off for the summer soon and will then be available during the daytime on weekdays and on weekends when I’m not traveling! I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, so I take time to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m mindful during walks, careful with doors/leashes, and respectful of each client’s home and routines. I also believe communication is key, so I make sure pet parents receive updates and photos for peace of mind throughout each visit!
“Shelbi is absolutely amazing and so communicative about even the small details. I know my pups are in good hands when she comes by to drop in or walk them! I definitely recommend using her and she is my go to each and every time!! Thank you Shelbi for being you and taking such great care of Frank and Beans ;)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 10 years. Experience with active dogs, elderly dogs and everything in between. Flexible schedule and last minute availability. I am available 24/7! I work freelance so my work schedule is remote and I schedule it myself. I have open availability on weekends as well. I have reliable transportation. I know all the best walking spots in town! I have a fenced in yard if needed. My vehicle can also fit large dogs.
About: I'm a huge pet lover and love meeting new pets and their unique personalities! My husband and I have a golden doodle puppy named Rosie! She is playful and is looking for a best friend in every dog she meets! There is one child in our home (3 years) who loves having our dog visitors. We love going on walks around my neighborhood and would love to take your pet with us! My husband and I are both animal lovers and work in the schools with summers off. I'm flexible with any dog's special needs or accommodations. It's important to know who your loved one is staying with so ask me anything and check in as needed! When I’m away from Rosie I love getting pictures of her so I will happily send you as many pictures as you’d like while your dog is with us. Let me know if you have any questions! My husband and I are off work in the summer as we work in the schools. We love spending our time outside with our dog and little girl! We’re accommodating for a variety of needs in our home. Whether crated, uncrated, needing to eat away from other dogs, bathroom breaks, etc. Our Rosie loves being outside and asks probably once an hour to go out (during waking hours) to go out, even just to lay down.
“Gabriela is one of the best and most reliable Rovers I’ve ever had. She is always responsive and can take handle last minute changes in schedule. I appreciate her so much, and always takes the best photos of my pup :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lathrup Village
Emily has been great with our Lucy! You can tell she has a lot of experience and is a pet lover. Our Lucy who can be timid and high anxiety really took to Emily and even sat on her lap! Emily’s communication prior was great and she kept us informed on the visit including photos. We would highly recommend her especially if your pet has special needs.
Winnie was awesome! Super easy to communicate with and made everything really stress-free for us. Our puppy Poppy absolutely loved her and we could tell she got tons of love and attention. Winnie is super trustworthy and reliable — we felt totally comfortable leaving Poppy in her hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lathrup Village stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
