“We had a great experience with Pallavi while we were visiting Windsor. She took excellent care of our pup Yumi, who absolutely loved the outdoor walks and relaxing massages. It was clear Yumi felt comfortable and happy in her care. We also really appreciated the regular photo and video updates—seeing Yumi’s tail wagging gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. Would definitely recommend Pallavi and book with her again!”


“Lasya was amazing with our two dogs! They provided regular updates and pictures throughout the day and kept us feeling very comfortable while we were away from our fur babies! They got outside for regular walks, but they also have lots of room inside for them to play. Their dog is also great and got along easily with ours. They will be our ‘go to’ people whenever we are back in town!”


“Deepika took very good care of Chili. She was lovely and calm in her interactions with Chili and myself. I was very appreciative of Deepika’s very timely response to my last minute request for an initial booking. She provided updates and pics and responded promptly to my queries throughout the day. Chili obviously had a great day with Deepika and her King Charles Spaniel. She expressed how much she liked Chili and that she would like to host her again. Chili will definitely be visiting Deepika again. Thank you Deepika!”


“I cannot thank Tammy enough for the amazing care she gave our baby! I was extremely anxious about leaving him at a new home, but she immediately calmed my worries with her kindness and reassurance. She went above and beyond to make him feel at home — even feeding him from the table when he was being picky, letting him snuggle and sleep in her bed, and making sure he had plenty of playtime with her sweet fur babies. I could tell he felt completely safe and loved, and I’m sure he had the best day full of play, cuddles, and comfort. Knowing he was in such loving hands gave me such peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter who will truly treat your fur baby like their own!”


About: I've owned dogs for the past 20 years, first an Australian Shephard, then a yellow Lab. I've also cared for the dogs of friends and family. After the death of my most recent guy, Petey, I decided that I want the companionship of dogs without the vet bills$ I'm now retired from teaching and have all the time in the world to sit, walk, transport and care for dogs. I can accept dogs during the day or night, 7 days a week. Your dogs will be in an open setting in my home. I have a fenced yard so they can play. I live near a park and a riverfront, so long walks can be taken through natural settings. I accept only one or two dogs at a time, depending on the personality and behaviour of the dogs. I have a van that can transport dog to wherever they need to go.

“Jessica is amazing with our new puppy! She was able to accommodate us on short notice, which we really appreciated. She walked him, fed him, played with him, and even introduced him to other little puppies so he could socialize. She greeted me warmly and treated both of us with such kindness. Our pup came home happy and tired from all the fun. We will definitely be coming back!”


“Karen was a great help with Luna when I unexpectedly had to leave the dog home alone for a VERY long day. She came over to give her cuddle and pee breaks and a trip to Barkside, Luna’s home away from home. 💕 Even went the extra mile to clean up a little dog mess. Thanks!!!!!”


About: I’ve been a groomers assistant and bather at a grooming shop and doggie daycare for a few years in past and I have access to a dog bathing suite for $15 for the use and $25 per dog. Blow drying those furry friends coats out! :) I’ve been dog and house sitting for years and I have had a few dogs of my own. I get excited to see every dog and cat I meet, they really make my day. If you’re out of my walking radius and still would like me to care for your pets you can provide transportation fees then I’d be happy to accept the jobs if I’m available that are last minute when you can’t find someone else. This is my only job, caring for pets now. I have worked for over 30 years and I have found pet sitting to be the best retirement gig for my wellbeing. So I’m available quite a bit. I can walk dogs or do house visits for either cats or dogs. I can help with training if you have rules or something you’d like me to help with for your pets. I can also pick up an item you may need from premier pet shop.

About: I am a former teacher and I love dogs as much as I love kids. Dogs are creatures who need attention, affection and lots of kisses! I live in the heart of downtown Detroit and I enjoy walking my dog several times a day. We go to the doggie parks that are in close proximity to the apartment, and we have a dog park at my apartment complex that’s great for meet and greets with other dogs. I would care for pets in someone else’s home by respecting the area in which the dog is most comfortable meaning changing pee, pee pads, making sure their food and water bowls are full. And I will make sure that their dog is treated as if the owner were at home with lots of belly rubs. I care for my dog in my home the same way I make sure it’s a clean environment a safe environment, where my dog feels comfortable.


“Awesome! He really helped me out when I was in a bind. Great with communication, following care instructions, and just being patient with my puppy. I will be sending Otis back to him when I need his help.”


About: I have taken care of various types of dog babies across many states. I learn quickly about what a dog needs especially when factoring in weather. I work from home most days and run in the evening. Usually long distance runs are in the morning so not inconvenient for night stays. For my home, I have a very spacious dog park and closed in balcony. Also live close to the riverwalk for night walks. There is space in home for medium sized crates if necessary.

About: Need a house sitter, plant sitter, or pet sitter you can count on? Hi, I’m Madrona — a remote marketing professional with a flexible schedule, years of experience, and a serious soft spot for furry companions. Since my family (and their pets) no longer live nearby, I’m looking to spend more quality time with animals — whether that’s a quick walk, a drop-by visit, or a longer stay in your home while you’re away. I’m available for: • Overnight house and pet sitting (I’ll stay in your home and care for pets + plants) • Drop-ins and walks • Short-term or occasional care I’ve worked with pets who are reactive, anxious, on meds, or just need a little extra patience. I’ve also been the go-to sitter for everything from cats with attitude to senior dogs with complex routines. I treat every home and animal like my own — with care, consistency, and respect. Tabor, my sweet family dog, won’t be tagging along unless invited, but he’s why I do this. He taught me how much love and attention animals really need — and deserve. Let’s chat if you’re looking for someone kind, experienced, and reliable. Because I work remotely and make my own schedule, I have the flexibility to integrate pet care seamlessly into my day. Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day visits, or overnight stays, I can be fully present and consistent — no rushing between commitments or leaving pets alone for long stretches. I genuinely enjoy the quiet companionship animals bring, so spending time with them is never a chore — it’s something I look forward to. Whether I’m staying in your home or stopping by throughout the day, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, seen, and cared for the entire time you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping things as close to their usual routine as possible. That means sticking to feeding schedules, walk times, medication if needed, and any specific instructions you provide — all while giving them plenty of love, attention, and calm energy. I’m respectful of your space, tidy, and communicative, so you’ll always know how things are going while you’re away. For drop-ins or walks, I make sure each visit is intentional — not rushed. I give pets time to settle, play, get their energy out (or just relax), and always check on their water, food, and general well-being. If I’m doing overnight care, I work remotely from your home, so your pets get lots of company and consistency throughout the day — not just in the mornings and evenings. No matter the service, your pet’s comfort and safety come first.


“Jack was great. He watched my dog while we went to a concert at Ford Field. Very flexible with drop off and pick up time as we weren’t sure what time pick up time would be. Highly recommend him! Thanks Jack!”


About: Hi ! My name is Victoria and I am undoubtedly a pet lover. I am a local college student hoping to provide the best care to your pets as possible. I have been taking care of dogs and cats for most of my entire life. I am a Veterinary Assistant at a Veterinarian Hospital. I have knowledge of what to do in most cases with pets including the basics of walking and feeding the pet. I can also give injections to the pet or feed them medication. I have a 4 year old Golden Retriever who is full of energy, he loves accompanying me on long walks! Due to his energy level and age, we walk 2 miles a day. I look forward to meeting and take care of your pet. I am very accommodating when it comes to people schedules and preferences. I work a short schedule since I am a full time student 😊 I love to take dogs on walks, play fetch in my backyard or explore the park in my neighborhood! If there are any commands you are working on, I would love to help keep the training going while you are away. I have crates available if you are interested in learning how to crate train your fur baby! I currently work part time while attending school full time which means I’m available for all your dog/cat needs for any special events or last minute vacations! I will always love your pet just like they’re my own. I pay attention to small details and will continue to update you with pictures and videos.

“Lauren was great, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the whole experience. Lauren was so nice and professional, always punctual. Her rate is incredibly fair, too. And my dog, Fern, got two of her fave things while there: to sit with a human and to watch the neighborhood from a window. I now like Rover a lot more than transitional dog day care places, and most of that has to do with Lauren. Will definitely be back.”


About: Always grew up with dogs at home and have experience training puppies. At this time, will only be taking small dogs or dogs that get along well with small dogs. Please also let me know if you do not want your dog given any treats throughout their stay. Working from home and new to the area . Whenever I do need to go out, dogs are never left alone for more than 4 hours. Walks are twice a day or more as needed. Will follow your feeding schedule. I live in an apartment with a fenced patio. We have a dog park on the premises and lots of space indoors for play time.

“We had a last minute need for a sitter in Detroit and Raeshawn was fantastic! She took Maggie for a nice stroll and stopped into a doggie pool. It was a short bit sweet visit. Thanks so much!”

Madrona P.
“I truly don’t know what I would have done without Madrona. My dog Milo has some pretty specific needs, both medical and emotional, and I’d been nervous to leave him in anyone else’s care. From the very first visit, she put both of us at ease. She took the time to understand his routine, his medications, and all the little things that help him feel safe. I came home to a happy, calm Milo, which never used to happen, and the regular updates gave me total peace of mind. Madrona is not only dependable—she’s incredibly kind, intuitive, and clearly loves what she does. I wouldn’t trust anyone else.”

Karen was absolutely AMAZING!! I’ll have to admit I am very picky about who I trust to watch our dogs but when we found ourselves in need of a day sitter while on a trip we found Karen. I had never used Rover before and I was quite nervous to leave them with a stranger. Within minutes Karen had eased all of my concerns. Upon arrival she knew the girls names and commented on things she had read on their profiles. She was very observant while watching our dogs explore her apartment to see how they were going to do when we left. She also provided feedback and photos during their time with her. She was also very welcoming of my husband and I and very flexible working around our day. We would absolutely book again with Karen without hesitation.

Rafael was amazing with my dog. He took care of him with ease. Rafael also took my dog for walks which was great exercise. Right before picking my dog up. Rafael made sure to take Columbus out so that he can be comfortable on the drive back home. Rafael would constantly update me with what's going on and would also snap pics of my dog enjoying. Thanks again hermano! Gracias para todos
