“Hadlie was excellent and very knowledgeable. She was able to address any anxieties we may have had and made sure to provide a thorough report of her visit with our dog Bee. Hadlie has excellent communication and responds quickly if we have any questions. We highly recommend her for your pets care!”

About: I’ve been caring for loving animals since I was 11, and over the years, family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk and look after their pets with consistent compassion, patience, and genuine affection. I’m currently working part-time so I’m home throughout the week. I’m available to pet sit, dog walk or provide a midday potty break. Mostly during the week however my schedule is flexible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, provide gentle companionship, keep their environment clean and comfortable, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their family is away.

“Shelli was great with our cat Marley. Very reliable and friendly. She gave us nightly updates which made our trip more enjoyable knowing she was in good hands. Thanks Shelli! We will surely think of her when we need a sitter.”

“Olivia was thoughtful, communicative, timely, and so sweet with Brodie. I was stress free knowing she was the one giving Brodie some love every day when we were gone.”

“Regan was AMAZING!! Very thoughtful care and occasional photos. She communicated well with us and really made us feel as ease while we were away. This was our first time using river.com and we will be calling on Regan again!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all types and sizes since I was 8 years old. I have has countless walking and house sitting jobs since I was 14 and I was always the go-to person in the neighborhood if any pets needed walking or any families were going on vacation and were in need of an in-home caretaker, or just someone to visit their fluffy friends during the day and walk/play/spend time with them. I am currently in Graduate school Monday through Thursday 11-3:15 so I am very flexible and can cater to you and your pets needs! I am free any other time and date outside of what is listed! I live in an apartment that doesn't allow pets (devastating I know) so my chihuahua jack Russell mix is with my dad in Michigan and I will not be available to bring your pet home. However, I am very active and have many friends here that would love to give your pet some extra love. I am also very handy at finding parks to walk in and fun activities for your pet and me to do, no matter how fast or slow-paced they like to live!

“We loved having Karla check in on our pup while I was having a medical procedure out of state. I had an adverse reaction and had to stay an extra night and Karla saved our butts by being able to do an extra day! Very punctual and highly recommend using her!”

“LAUREN did great. She was able to stop by last minute. She gave Stella lot of love and affection. Will definitely use again and I highly recommend!”

About: Experience with dogs of various sizes. Volunteered with two dog adoption agencies and have fostered 3 dogs in the past that have all been adopted. My current dog is a happy foster fail! I work from home 2 days of the week, but can be flexible based on your need. I'm regularly active, so dog walks are always welcome! I have two crates and plenty of beds for your pet to feel comfortable. I have an outdoor patio in case your dog wants some fresh air as well as plenty of walking space around my neighborhood.

About: Hi there, I have been involved with dog care since my childhood; growing up as a volunteer with various rescues and animal shelters, to fostering, to adopting and owning my own dogs. I have dealt with many breeds and types of dogs and personalities throughout the years. Unfortunately since my work schedule changes too frequently, I cannot accept bookings more than two weeks in advance. I am great for someone who needs a last minute, short stay booking (1-4 days) at a low affordable cost. If you have a well behaved dog, low-medium energy, that needs a safe, clean, and loving home for a few days while you’re gone, I’m the Rover for you 🙂 I live in an apartment so ideally my home is best suited for small to medium size dogs that are house trained, well behaved, and low-medium energy. I can unfortunately only accept large dogs if they are low energy, behaved, and house trained I do not have a yard but I do have plenty of safe walking space around the neighborhood. During the day, potty breaks are every 4 hours. If your dog is crate trained, that is a plus for overnight sleeping to avoid any issues of being out roaming the apartment without supervision. I am otherwise home and attentive to your dog. Communication is important. I respond quickly and will send daily updates. I’m only charging $20 a night because I know how hard it is to find safe, dependable, and affordable care, especially last minute. So I want to open my home when my schedule allows to help other dog owners I don’t require a meet and greet ahead of time but have no problem if you would like to have one (in person or FaceTime) and see if my place is the right fit for your dog when you’re gone. For the safety of your dog, I do not feed anything but your provided dog food and provided treats. I do not feed human food or my own treats as I don’t want to risk any stomach issues Thank you for your time and consideration

“Allison was very helpful in taking care of our two senior cats. Normally when we’re gone they’re very stressed out but we came home to two very relaxed kitties. Thanks Allison!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, from playful puppies to calm senior dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and very detail-oriented, which means I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and care instructions exactly as requested. I also regularly care for my own golden retriever, handling daily walks, feeding, playtime, and routine care. This has given me hands-on experience with an active, friendly breed that needs consistent exercise and attention. I’m especially comfortable with daily walks, exercise, and providing calm companionship. I pay close attention to a dog’s body language and behavior, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. I understand that every dog is different and I take the time to adjust to their personality and needs. As a full-time University of Michigan student, I’m highly organized, reliable, and communicative. I show up on time, send regular updates, and treat every dog as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. During the week, I’m available before and after classes for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I keep my schedule organized to ensure I can give each pet reliable, unrushed care. I am completely free on weekends, which allows me to be very flexible with timing for longer walks, multiple visits, or extended care. I prioritize consistency and clear communication, so pet owners always know when to expect updates and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space and follow all instructions exactly as provided. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free by maintaining their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I’m attentive to safety at all times—making sure leashes are secure, doors and gates are closed, and pets are supervised during walks and visits. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels, especially in new environments, and adjust care as needed. I also prioritize clear communication and trust. I provide regular updates and photos, and I always leave a client’s home clean, secure, and just as I found it.

“Excellent service! Christine made sure to get to our place in a snow storm to take care of our dogs. Thank you for the great job and patience with our dogs!”

About: I have a soft heart when it comes to pets. I have two cats and I love them to death!!! They are spoiled as heck. I’ve had experience with both cats and dogs since 2012. I get very excited meeting new pets! I will always provide the best care for your burr babies because that is what I want if someone else is watching mine. I work M-F so on the weekdays, more than likely I won't be able to stop by till the evening. I am very flexible during the weekends. Either way, I will work around my schedule and your pets will be well taken care of! Safety will always be my number one priority. I never want to see my babies get hurt, let alone someone else’s pet. I will always follow instructions given by the pet parents well and will always ensure their pets are safe while in my care!

About: I’ve taken care of all of my pets since a very young age. I love every animal I see as if they are my own! Animals bring me so much joy and I wish for them to have the same happiness. I try to pay attention to body language to know what they are telling me especially when we do not know each other yet. I’ve worked as a dog nutritionist at a place called Must Love Dogs (which I certainly do!) I always want to learn more, do more, and constantly be better for the animals in the world even if I’m only able to impact a few. I have experience with dogs who need a lot of support physically (wheelchairs, lift up harnesses, bathroom assistance) as my own German Shepherd needed all of these things later in life. I may have lost count of how many times I was peed on or had to clean the floors, but I wouldn’t change any of it for the world. I hope to honor him everyday and share my love with other fur babies as much as I can. My love for animals is endless. My goal is to be able to fill my days with all sorts of animals I can love on and bring joy to. I am available any day or time for drop in visits, playtime, feedings, and walks! I currently have a dog and a cat. I take my dog for walks and try to provide plenty of play time, snuggles, and other forms of enrichment for him every day. My kitty is still young and loves playtime, being brushed, and always wants snuggles in the morning which I am always happy to provide! My pets are my babies and every animal I see automatically becomes a baby. I had a special needs German shepherd who was in a wheelchair and needed a ton of special care and attention. I’m not afraid to do the dirty work that pets need to thrive and be happy whether that’s my own pets or my clients. I’d treat them as my own.

About: I've been pet/house sitting for eight years now via word of mouth. All sizes of dogs, cats, and even bearded dragons. I believe part of why I can connect with animals well is getting to know each pet's personality and individual needs. I'm experienced in daily walks, feeding, playtime, cleaning, basic medication if needed, and plenty of love/attention. I understand how important routines are to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I'm committed to that reliable and attentive care. I'm more than happy to update you with as many photos and messages as needed for your peace of mind. Lastly, in case of an emergency or even simply needing a resource, my sister works at a vet clinic I can always contact. I'm currently part time as a barista and will be gone typically 5-7 hours (8 at most depending on length of drive) on some days. My schedule varies on which days. Pets will be cared for in your home by not merely following instructions but also paying attention to detail, maintaining routine, and building trust with them. I'll make sure they have a safe environment, fresh water, and a clean/tidy space, making your time away from them as stress-free as possible. Exceptional pet care goes beyond meeting the bare minimum. I always emphasize caring for that pet's needs, so whether that's cuddles, playtime, long walks, or simple quiet companionship, I'm happy to match their personality/energy to create an enriching experience. Every owner, pet, and house is treated with respect and professionalism.

About: Growing up living with my mom, we always had 4 dogs and now I have 2 dogs! My wife rovers and I help her sometimes but figured I'd start my own account! This is fun and I enjoy it! I work from home(sometimes have to travel) so it's easy checking in on pets or staying elsewhere if needed! I work from him so checking in on pets or staying at a house is easy and flexible for me! I do have to travel sometimes. I have 2 dogs right now that are small and very friendly. I have a fenced in yard. Working from home makes it easy to travel to take care of dogs!

About: I've been around dogs, cats, and some level of farm animals for most of my life, pet sitting as a service is new for me, although I have extensive practice in animal care. Simply put, I've taken care of animals long enough to know that mane and tail is an amazing conditioner and shampoo combo. I am currently seeking employment and searching for work with services such as rover, my schedule fluctuates however I would consider myself on call, Monday to Sunday any time unless otherwise specified, im here for you and your pets. Our home is a finely tuned balance of two cats and two huskies, I have worked extensively to care for and train both animals to live harmoniously together. My goal is to ensure your pets are safe, happy, and preferably sleepy by the time your best friends are back in your arms, for the huskies we often walk them anywhere from 3 to 5 miles, and upwards of 10 miles on some days on safe, pre walked and inspected routes to ensure your pets saftey
