“Callie helped me out over the holidays and took great care of my boy Frootie. She gave this shy guy his space (eventually he warmed up and introduced himself) while attending to his needs. Very grateful for the strong communication and commitment.”

“Lauren was amazing with my little guy! She took such good care of him, helped him get his meds, and was so easy to coordinate with. And she visited him *twice* on Christmas Day! I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

“I’ve lost track of how many times Lukis has watched my kitties. Lukis is incredibly reliable - always providing poetic updates with hilarious photos for my peace of mind. My home is always in perfect order when I return and my cats are happy, healthy, and loved. I know that whenever I leave town, I can count on Lukis to take care of my fur babies. Thanks Lukis (:”

“This was my first sit hiring Maheen, and as a pet sitter myself with a very shy cat, I have high standards of care. At the meet and greet I experienced a kind and knowledgeable cat caregiver, and after a week long sit of twice daily visits, my impression held very true. She is fantastic! Maheen was impeccable at detailed communication with me, extending grace and patience while caring for my very shy Felix to the exact considerations in my request. 10/10 recommend. Will happily hire her again.”

“Randi was so personable and trustworthy. She seemed happy to help us. We had no worries while we were gone and received plenty of pictures. She even gave our cat the eye drops that he needed. Was so grateful to find somebody who genuinely cares for all animals!”
“Ariel is hands down the best sitter I’ve booked with in my two years and two cities on Rover! She is so kind, communicative, and sent the best pictures and updates while we were traveling over the holidays. She really put me at ease knowing our kitty was in great hands. 10/10 would definitely book with her again :)”

About: I have been taking care of pets almost my whole life. I have watched as little as a kitten to as big as a 120lb dog. I don’t currently have a job so I am almost always available. Some weekends I might be away but very rarely. I will almost always make time to watch your pets I have a fenced in backyard for dogs. I like to spend as much time as possible with my pets. My pets are very friendly.
“Avery was great, she gave me updates and shared photos of her time spent with Bailey while I had work commitments, giving her treats and belly rubs. I highly recommend Avery and won’t hesitate if I need her help again soon : )”


“We are repeat clients of Jeannette, and the quality of her pet sitting and genuine care for our kitty keeps us coming back. She’s thoughtful and engaged, and simply the best! Highly recommend!!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats; for my own pets and for neighbors, friends, and family. I'm attentive, very communicative, and genuinely love animals, so I treat every pet like my own. I love sending pictures throughout the day so you don’t need to worry about your pet while you’re away! I follow feeding schedules closely, provide walks and potty breaks as needed, give medications when needed, and crate pets if requested. My goal is always to keep each pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I keep my calendar updated regularly and have open availability most days. For longer stays, 12–24 hours' notice is appreciated. On Monday and Wednesday evenings I have limited availability, but please communicate with me and we can make something work. I will go above and beyond to make sure you are stress free! My calendar is always up to date, so what you see is what's available, no surprises! I'm generally very flexible and love being able to say yes. For overnight stays or multi-day bookings, a little heads-up of 12–24 hours helps me make sure your pet gets my full attention. Monday and Wednesday evenings I'm a bit limited, but mornings and afternoons those days work perfectly. When in doubt, just reach out, I'm happy to make it work! Your pet's safety is my #1 priority, always. I stick to feeding schedules like clockwork, administer medications exactly as instructed, and make sure your dog is crated comfortably if that's part of their routine. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I'd want for my own; you'll never have to wonder if your fur baby is in good hands :)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old. I have experience with various breeds and ages. I’ve work with puppies, senior dogs, pitbulls, labs, doodles, and more. I am allergic to cats, so I am only available for dog bookings. Local to the Metro Detroit area looking to support dogs and their families 🫶 I’m am putting in my 2 weeks at my full time job on Monday and am looking for part time work doing what I love: caring for dogs. My schedule will be super flexible after 2/20/26 :) I am sadly living in a small apartment currently, but I’d be happy to care for dogs in a client’s home. I’m super type A and communicative. I would want to follow family instructions as closely as possible and provide a loving calm environment.

“Mary Kay was attentive to all my pets’ needs and was very sweet with them. She followed my drop in instructions perfectly and was very punctual. I appreciate her interest in treating them and giving them additional care beyond Cholula’s basic need of a potty break. We are so fortunate to have her services weekly moving forward.”


About: I worked at Premier Pet Supply for a year and a half, and LOVE dogs!! I am also very active and am used to walking my 50lb pitbull who knows how to pull😂 I am currently a full-time student who works a part-time job! I have a cat who I love and care for, as well as my mother’s dog and numerous family friends who I enjoy pet-sitting for. I am very active so walks are always fun, and I can watch pets overnight as needed! I am in an apartment right now, so dogs would transparently be difficult to board, but in a clients home I have historically done very well! I work 7 hour days 4 days a week currently, which can be adjusted as needed for clients and their pets comfort. I am also very good at following instruction and caring for animals- I used to work at a pet store!
“Breanna was great! Our cat had a great time with her when we were away. She kept us updated with texts, photos, and videos while we were away (and even FaceTimed us when we wanted to confirm a tricky house item). Kenny seems to have enjoyed having all of the attention and great playtime with Breanna. Would hire again!”

Medical Center pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lukis was AMAZING! They sent such kind messages with their daily check-ins and made us feel completely at ease. They did a brilliant job caring for our two cats - one of whom needed a daily pill and the other who needed a daily inhaler. Even our shy cat felt comfortable with them, which is a big deal. We would 100% work with them again and again. 10/10 would recommend!

Randi took great care of ziva for a last minute business trip. She was very communicative throughout the process and even took the time to do a meet and greet before I left. I loved seeing pictures on my trip and knowing my dog was well taken care of. I will be using her again.

Erik is so great with my cat. He takes great care of her and goes above and beyond to look out for my entire household. My dog has been gone the last couple of drop ins, but I look forward to Erik taking care of her too. He is clearly a natural animal lover and will care for your pet as if it’s his own.

Naomi was diligent and attentive to our new cat who played a tough game of hide and seek each time she arrived to check on him. Instead of throwing her hands up and saying she couldn’t find him, she took the extra effort of searching (high and low) to make sure he was doing well. We can’t thank Naomi enough for putting our minds at ease while we were on vacation. Thank you, Naomi!
