“This is the first time Raheid cared for my kitty Dartagnan & he was wonderful! Lovely place to explore & excellent management of foods & medication & sent some very cute pictures. Raheid let Dartagnan try his cat’s dry food & discover a new preference, was extremely kind & understanding when I asked to extend visit, & even gave him a complimentary bath! Highest recommendation for a safe, caring, & happy visit for your pet.”


“Queeny is one of my favorite dog sitters. I never have to worry about my dog when she’s in her care. Good communication and very flexible. Queeny and her husband take her on walks and play in the yard with her every time she’s there. She always seems pumped to go to their house.”


“Steven was very kind and made me feel comfortable leaving my 2 girls with someone outside of a boarding place for the first time. He gave good updates and was very flexible with pick up/drop off. Will definitely be using his services again!”


“Jingles was welcomed into Tara/Gary's home with open paws. I was kept informed with pictures and jingles mannerisms, which I knew he was under no stress. Jingles will definitely be visiting again. Thanks again Tara”


“Have left our pups with Tammy a few times now over the summer. They always come back happy. We love seeing all the photos while we’re on vacation. Tammy was even kind enough to bathe the dogs (with our permission) before we picked them up. Highly recommend!!”


“I would trust leaving my dog here any time. He was loved and cared for by this amazing couple like he was their own. This was my first time trusting anyone with my dog and the experience exceeded my expectations in every way. Received daily pictures and updates, was able to enjoy vacation worry free. Highly recommended!”

“We just moved to Detroit and we needed a dog sitter ASAP so we turned to Rover. We used the service in our prior city and found a good reliable sitter. We lucked out again with Theresa & Adrian. They took good care of our goldendoodle. If they are available, we will definitely use their services again.”


“Jessica was very helpful and attentive to my baby Lolah. She have daily updates and sent tons of pictures of my baby having a blast playing with other pups and a cat. She was very welcoming And her boys spoiled my little Lolah. I would definitely recommend Jessica and will be requesting her for all future stays”

“Where do I begin?! Literally from our meet and greet, I knew Angelique and her fur baby: Ozzy would make a great pair for Mocha! While I was on vacation, I never once worried about or doubted Mocha’s well-being. As Angelique sent plenty of photos and videos to keep me in the know. And just from observing the imagery, it was clear that Mocha was very happy and well-looked after! I am so happy and relieved to have met Angelique and Ozzy, and so will you! ?❤️”


“Hannah took great care of my dog over the long weekend! When I picked him up, he was relaxed and happy. He had daily walks and snuggles and Hannah followed his care instructions perfectly. I also received daily updates, pictures, and videos, which really put me at ease. Your dog will be in good hands with Hannah. :)”


“Anna was wonderful with our dog! She kept in touch with photos and texts, took her for walks, asked about allergies before giving treats, very thorough care! We were able to relax knowing our dog was in good hands!”
