“Shelly is absolutely amazing! She does drop ins on Bear and takes him for a walk while I am at work. I have noticed such a difference in his attitude. He is much happier and calmer when I get home. It truly brings me peace to know someone cares about my dog as much as I do. Thank you Shelly!”
“I don't know what I would do without Brittany! She is so caring and sweet with my little boy. She leaves adorable and detailed report card information with pictures which melt my heart!”

“I needed someone on very short notice (on Christmas Eve) to let my old girl Lola out for me at night to save me from having to leave family Christmas party and drive 30 minutes both ways. Kellie came in clutch! Quick responses, and followed instructions precisely. Will definitely book again in the future.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, including starting dog sitting when I was 13 years old. I also have two dogs of my own, and I spend time taking care of them to the best of their needs! For additional fee, I’d love to draw a photo of your pet! I am currently working part-time and a full time student, and I would love to add your pet to my routine! I love taking walks outside and playing with all animals, so I would love to find the perfect enrichment for your pet! I have a safe, walkable neighborhood to take your fur baby on walks that will be enjoyable for your dog! I also have dog beds and toys for downtime.
About: I have been dog sitting for over 4 years now and the types of dogs have ranged from a few weeks old to 15 years old. I grew up with dogs and I even help volunteer at an animal shelter when I have the chance. I’ve animal sat for: dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, turtles, and more. I also work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility where I take care of pups all ages and breeds. I work part time and have plenty of time to take care of any animal I only work 4 hours on most days which gives me a lot of time to play and socialize with the animals. On Monday and Wednesday I work 7 hours, from 9-12 and 2-6 in between those time I will be with your fur baby’s aswell. Tuesdays and Thursdays I have school at 8-11am. Tuesdays I work 2-6. Fridays I work 8-12pm. So your animals will only be home alone short amounts of time. I plan to let out the animals every 4 hours or earlier on Monday and Wednesday’s. Then on any other day I will be with them every second I can be and I will be letting them out very frequently or as often as asked.

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so being around them feels second nature to me. I’ve had experience with a wide range of breeds from high energy working dogs like German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois to small companion dogs like Pomeranians, so I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m very attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them company and making them feel safe while you’re away. While I haven’t owned a cat myself, I’ve cared for them multiple times and have always connected well with them. I understand that every pet has their own temperament, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m currently working toward my Pilates certification, (which doesn’t take up much of my time as I only do it for a few hours a week) so I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to caring for pets. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. Whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and wanted to spend more of my time doing something I love while staying active and productive. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific needs so your pet stays in their normal routine :) I’m very attentive to each pet’s behavior and energy level, and adjust care to fit them, whether that means more activity or a calm environment. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean space with plenty of attention, supervision, and regular exercise. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Liv is outstanding with pets. My dog took an immediate liking to her and seemed genuinely happy to have her stop by to care for him. I would highly recommend her to care for your pets!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, having the unique experience raising and training dogs through my father, an experienced police dog trainer and handler. I have a lot of patience and take great care in handling dogs of all breeds. I have skills and experience in crate training, potty training, leash training, getting pets used to kids and other animals, and breaking food and toy aggression. I am available for drop-in visits and walks for all animals. I am able to board up to 3 dogs at a time. I am able to pick up and drop off for an additional fee of $30 each. Pick up and drop off times are flexible. For boards longer than 3 days, I require a “doggy day care” trial with a minimum of 4 hours to ensure your beloved pet and I are good fits for each other. Proof of vaccines required. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have the flexibility to accommodate your pets needs throughout the day. Having three children, we are big fans of routines. I ensure integration of your animals into our daily routine. We live on an acre with a fenced in backyard. Because of the foliage, I do require your dog to be on a tick preventative for their safety. We will keep your fur baby company, loved on and entertained! We spend a lot of time at home, so your pup will never get lonely under our care. I also take time to read your dogs cues and body language and teach my children how to read these and the importance of respecting animals and their boundaries. We treat all animals with love and respect.
“Kati was awesome! It was our first time booking with Rover and she put our mind at ease right away with our first meet and greet. I would definifley book her again. Our dog absolutely loved her! She took great care of him. She was great at communicating and was very responsive. She did everything we asked and gave our dog lots of love while we were gone. So happy to find such a great pet sitter! :)”


About: I have grown up with cats and dogs of my own and love animals! I would love to get to know your pet and take care of them while you are busy. I walk my own dog Ruby 3 miles multiple days a week when I am home from school! I am enrolled at WMU currently so I have class 5 days a week but I can make time to take care of yours pet any day of the week. I would be happy to share more about weekday schedule if you dm me! I look after my pets at home with love and care and would treat your pet like my own. I will walk your pets on a leash and play/check on them as frequently as you would like me to.
“Sarah was amazing with our pup! He loves her so much and she made sure he had no accidents the whole visit. She was so great about keeping us updated on how he was doing and sending photos to keep us posted! We would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet and knowledgeable pet sitter. ☺️”

“Everything went great! It really gave me peace of mind to know Becky was checking on our cats, and getting updates on how they are doing. Came home to happy kitties. What a relief!”

“Alyssa's first drop in visit to my home with my puppy was a little delayed due to some unfortunate vehicle issue but she was able to turn a potential bad situation into a good one. She was upfront and honest with me and was still able to save the day even with everything going on. I appreciated greatly her communication and pics of my pups and her time well spent at my home.”


“Our dog Cosmo loves Elena. She is so sweet to text me everyday and let me how he did. Since he is a puppy, she is working with him on playing fetch and fun things to burn off energy!”
“Mia was great! She sent pictures every day, and helped us and our 2 cats and parakeet feel more comfortable during our time away over the holidays. She even re-potted a plant that one of the cats got into. Excellent! Would highly recommend her!”


“Carissa took great care of our two pit bull mixes with drop-in visits at our home. One of our dogs is quite skittish with new people and she won him over quickly. We especially loved getting photos at every visit. We will rebook her again.”

Brittany was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to care for our dog on very short notice. She was responsive, warm, an experienced professional, and our pup felt at ease right away. We received regular updates and could tell our dog was in great hands the entire time. We’re so grateful to have found her and would happily book again!
