“Katie watched our two large dogs and our cat this weekend and did an amazing job! Super quick responses with any questions and left our house spotless after staying! The dogs seemed exhausted for all the fun they had with her! Can’t wait to hire her again!!”

“Betsy took care of our dog (and house) for an entire week while we were away. Communicating with her was easy and straight forward and we received frequent pictures and updates every day. Our dog is on the older side of her life and has some particular needs .It was so good to know she was in great hands while we were away. Our house was also pristine when we returned. I will definitely ask Betsy to take care of our dog for us again in the future . Our best dog-sitting experience thus far! Thanks Betsy :)”

About: Hello! My name’s Martin, and I’m a Dexter local looking to spend some more time with animals while finishing up my degree at Eastern Michigan. I am also a barista at a cafe on the Northside!! I grew up with both dogs and cats, a chocolate lab named Khloe, a yorkie named Jack, and Gucci the cat. I love spending time with pets all sizes and ages, and would love to get to know you and yours. Please reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet. Looking forward to meeting you! I’m currently working part time as a barista in Ann Arbor MI. I am available in the early mornings and afternoons after 3/4! My favorite past times are going on long walks and writing! Being able to incorporate animals into my walks and spending quality time with them relaxing.

About: Hi! I’m Olivia, and I’d love the chance to care for your pet! I have several years of experience pet sitting for family friends and neighbors, and I’m comfortable following specific routines for feeding, medicine, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I absolutely love animals and grew up with two dogs, so I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m also super active and love walks, so I’d be happy to make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and attention! I’m a recent University of Michigan graduate and current master’s student at the University of Georgia, spending the summer in Ann Arbor for research and family. I’m doing part-time research on a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my days around what works best for you and your pet. This gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your pet throughout the day and week. I care for pets in my client’s home by doing my best to keep them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. Pets obviously do best in familiar environments, so I make sure to follow any instructions closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and other daily habits. I always give them plenty of attention, affection, and patience so they feel secure while you’re away. I make it a priority to treat every home with respect and communicate clearly and reliably so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Erin really went above and beyond for us. Just before we were about to take a long planned vacation, one of our kitties came down with a virus and required multiple medications, including IV fluids. We were so grateful to have found her profile. She is an expert cat sitter, with the background as a vet tech and was able to administer all the medications as needed while we were gone. Also, she kept our house was in tiptop shape. Best of all, when we came home and our sick kitty was back to being himself. We couldn’t have asked for more. Although we don’t have dogs, I’m sure that Erin provides the same expert care for them as well. We will be having her back for sure.”

“My dog is a 100% herding dog. Alexis was great with this. I think my dog got more exercise with Alexis than I have ever given her. She was very caring with her as she helped her cope with fireworks multiple nights in a row. Alexis is very personable, took care to read and understand the instructions I had left. Not only would I have her dog and cat sit again, I am indeed doing that.”

Kathleen I.

“Hanna stayed with our cat all week while we were gone. She was so easy to communicate with and quick to respond! She sent us the cutest pictures and videos all week to get us through the week. 100% will rebook with Hanna.”

Jenelle M.

“Caroline was great! She made sure my time away caused little disruption to my very spoiled fur babies. I know they got the cuddles and loves they would have if I was there!”

Tara J.

“The best pet and house sitter we have ever had, hands down! It was so nice relaxing on this recent family trip knowing our home and furry family members were in such good hands. Absolutely recommend!”

Megan V.

“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!”

Natalie T.

“Denise was wonderful with my dogs. I have 3 small dogs who like to have company at home and that’s exactly what she provided. I was able to relax peacefully knowing my babies were safe and home, enjoying themselves. I got lots of updates throughout the weekend including videos and texts. She left the house exactly as she found it and had no issues! I will be inviting Denise back for my next trip!”

Abbe N.

“We appreciated Katie's patient approach to our anxious dog Otis. Furthermore, the house was left in a clean condition. Thanks for taking good care of the boys!”

David O.

“Courtney rocks! Our animals were so relaxed when we got home from our trip. It’s clear that Courtney cares for them like they’re her own. It makes our time away from them so much better knowing that our animals are in great hands!”

Angie N.

“Autumn watched our golden retriever for the week while we were on vacation. She sent lots of pictures and we were very happy to know that Lena was in good hands. Very respectful of our home and we will definitely book again!”

About: I started house/pet-sitting earlier this year. I love it! My two extended-stay experiences included an apartment with two cats, and a home with two boxers. I received superior reviews from both clients. I am fit, can go on long walks, and leave the place cleaner than I found it! As a retiree, I have a lot of discretionary time. If in the Washtenaw County area, I may need to run some two-three-hour errands during any given day. That will all be cleared in advance. I am attentive to the pets, and often stop what I'm doing to give them attention. I am excited when they come into the room. And I am exceedingly patient and gentle.
