“Josh was great with all three of our dogs. He was communicative throughout the weekend and we never worried. Beyond that, he took amazing care of our house even going above and beyond to help when we got a giant snowstorm while we were gone. I would highly recommend Josh.”
“Autumn was very responsive to my booking request and was nice enough to come to the house and meet the dogs prior to the booking. She seemed to do well with the dogs and was a very respectful houseguest. All in all a great experience”
About: I'm an owner of a kitty. I've watched other people's pets ever since I can remember. I'm relied on as a good pet sitter, always wanting the best for your pets. Plus I'm a lover of giving treats and good pets I've recently moved down to Saline MI from Marquette MI. I've also recently secured a job as a HHA. I visit my clients daily, but only for 3 hrs at a time. I usually work 8am-11am (I don't work this shift often), and 4pm-7pm. I'm definitely able to watch, walk, and snuggle your pet around my work. Usually only working 3hrs a day leaves me lots of time to visit or stay with your pet! Like I said, I'm a lover of good pets and giving treats. My kitty is quite the diva, and super spoiled. I believe every pet deserves the best care, and I'm here for them when you can't be!
About: I have been pet sitting , including house sitting, since high school! I love all animals and have experience with dogs and cats of all ages! I have taken care of special needs animals before as well - including medication injections and senior care. I’m entering my final year of graduate school so I am beginning a phase of most writing my dissertation and other computer work! Because of that I have a very flexible schedule! I’m happy to work with you to ensure a situation that works best for your pets! For any check in services (dog walking/check in visits) I will provide message communication upon entering and leaving the house! For stays at your house I will communicate throughout the stay to update you on how your pets are doing!
“Clare was so wonderful! She took such great care of our 5 year dog (and house) while we were out of the country! She sent us updates and photos and loved on him so well! It gave us so much comfort to have her here while we were so far away. I will also say that this was our first time using Rover and we couldn't have been more pleased to have had Clare as our inaugural pet sitter and we for sure will use her again! She put us at such ease by coming over and meeting us (and our dog) and asked great questions and helped us through that process as well. We highly recommend her!”
About: While I'm more used to cats, I do also love dogs. Have a dog with separation anxiety? I can keep them company for a while! I will be working part-time Monday-Friday from 2 pm to 6 pm. I will be available to watch your pets from 9:30 am-1:30 pm on those days (despite what options this site gave). On Saturdays and Sundays I'll be available from 3 pm-8 pm. If I am unable to watch a pet at any time, I will let you know ahead of time by at least a few days. I currently own a cat, Higgins, who is a big lovebug and fairly food motivated. I've been in charge of feeding him breakfast and dinner since we rescued him in 2015, along with scooping his litterbox. He's also needed nightly medication for some stomach issues, so I have experience giving him a pill. I can feed your pet, clean up after them whether they have a set schedule or not, and provide medication if necessary.
“Rafael was an excellent pet sitter and house sitter for our two kitties. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. He was punctual, clean, and gave us daily updates and beautiful pictures of our kitties. He cleaned before we arrived back home which we were really grateful for. We will definitely be hiring him again!”
“This was our first time using rover with our 2 month old Pup. So glad it was Randa! She was just great with her and made us feel comfortable with several updates and photos.”
“Betsy is truly fantastic, attentive and super with updates and photos. You can tell she genuinely enjoys her time spent with your pets, her energy and communication is fantastic. She stayed over a weekend with my two lovelies and they were so happy when I returned home. Will absolutely be using Betsy in the future for my pet and house sitting needs.”
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have cared for pets for over 20 years. I’ve had dogs since I was 20 years old and also worked in a veterinary clinic while I was in college, where I gained hands-on experience in animal care and behavior. I currently volunteer with the Humane Society, where I help care for animals in need. I also enjoy spending time with my friends’ and family’s pets and treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or keeping your pet company, I’m dedicated to providing loving, reliable care. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and can provide care when it’s needed — whether that’s daily visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, my goal is always the same: to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. In My Home: I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with lots of space to play, relax, and feel at home. I follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible — including feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest. I limit the number of pets I care for at once to ensure each one gets plenty of individual attention. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away. In Your Home: I respect your space and care for your pet just as you would. I stick to their regular routines, give them lots of love and attention, and keep everything clean and tidy. I can also water plants, bring in mail, or do light home tasks if requested. Most importantly, I make sure your pet stays calm, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment. I understand that every pet is different, so I’m always happy to follow any special instructions or routines to keep them happy and healthy.
“Maura was wonderful! She provided lots of updates and photos of our pets while we were away. She went above and beyond the things we asked. We are so thankful for her help!”
“Jackson did a wonderful job caring for my two active, young dogs and my house. He was communicative, reliable, flexible, and warmly engaged with the dogs, and all seemed well with the animals and house when I came home. I would happily have Jackson dog-sit again.”
“I highly recommend Haylee to take care of your pets. She did a couple drop in visits and an overnight stay. I currently have a young, 65lb mixed-breed foster dog named Roger. While Roger is sweet, he can be a bit of a handful, can be high energy, and has a strong prey drive. Haylee had no problem handling Roger. She took the time for Roger to get comfortable with her and showed good dog handling skills. She was also punctual and communicated well.”
“Sophie did an awesome job. She was very thoughtful of our requests and took wonderful care of our pups. Best of all she provided us many photos so we never really felt far from the dogs.”

Tristin P.
“Tristin spent many weeks in training at our local Humane Society in high school, so he could become a Junior Volunteer there. He then would pick up volunteer shifts to help out with the animals at the shelter. Tristin has always loved animals, and has looked after my 2 cats, and 1 dog many, many times if I was out of town, even my 16 year old dog when she was alive (a couple years ago). Tristin has also looked after many other family member's pets if they were out of town as well. Tristin adores animals, in all shapes and sizes, and would be a perfect fit for Rover.”
Victoria V.
“Victoria is an AMAZING animal lover and dog mom, and anyone would be lucky to have her look after their pets! I know that she takes extremely good care of her own dog, and all the pets she has looked after (including but not limited to cats, lizards, dogs, and even horses!). I have know Victoria for over a year, and it has always struck me how good she is with animals - she is attentive, intuitive, and caring with all animals, and clearly cares very deeply about all animals’ physical and mental wellbeing. Your pets would be in very good hands with her!!!”
