“Kathy was an amazing pet sitter for our dog Jack. She kept us informed and provided pics on every visit. Jack our 17 year old puppy was well taken care of and that gave us great peace of mind. We will definitely rebook with Kathy!”
“Outstanding! I had 3 Rovers before Skye. Skye is by far the best! Going away is hard when you have to leave a beloved pet. I could tell all the pics and videos Skye sent that my Meesha was very cared for. As long as she’s available, Skye will always be my first choice going forward whenever I need help. She’s fantastic!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and cat owner, I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets, attentive to senior pets who may need extra care and monitoring, and comfortable following detailed instructions, including administering medications when needed. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, and energy levels so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care! * Tuesday–Thursday: In-office in Novi from 8:00 AM–5:00 PM * Friday–Monday: Working remotely from home with a flexible schedule On my remote days, I’m able to provide more frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Even on my in-office days, I’m available before and after work and can accommodate morning, evening, and overnight care. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. My biggest goal is to reduce as much stress as possible while you’re away by keeping your pet’s routine consistent and providing a calm, loving environment where they feel secure. I understand that every pet is different—some want constant attention and playtime, while others prefer quiet companionship and their own space. I take the time to learn their personality, habits, and needs so they can feel comfortable and cared for.
“Bill has been such a help for us and our senior dog. He is reliable, trustworthy, and patient with our fur baby. He goes over and above to communicate with us and to provide suggestions and care for our little guy. We are so thankful to have him on our care team.”
“I have a modified automated cat feeder and a few smart home setups that I was worried would be too intricate to explain to someone else, but Heather handled everything perfectly; she absolutely went above and beyond! She was very responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures while I was away. I'm planning another trip soon and will certainly book with her again!”
About: Dogs have been my favorite animals since I was born. I have worked at a doggy daycare and kennel where I supervised dogs during playtime, ensure all dogs were well taken care of, and gave food, water, and meds to the dogs. I’m passionate about the well-care of dogs and I will make sure your dog is happy and comfortable. I am a recent college graduate living at home for the summer, so I have a lot of availability from May-August. My availability is very flexible at this time. I have a large yard to play with dogs and plenty of toys. I live close to a lake where I can take dogs on walks and swims. I will take as many photos and videos as you want. My main goal is that every dog is happy and taken care of in the way that fits their needs and personality because each dog is unique.
About: Dogs have always been in the family since I was 8 and my dog’s name is Riley. He’s a German shepherd mix. He’s been my running buddy for years. I like to go on walks and runs and would love bring some buddies along with me! I can also bring any dogs that require a bit more exercise to the dog park for some runs. I have fenced yard with plenty of space for runs and a ranch style home for any older pups who don’t like to climb stairs.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 5! I have a husky back at home with my parents and I used to have a toy poodle. In addition, I have two horses who are my babies! I was raised and taught on how to take care of animals and I absolutely love any type of pet. A couple years back, my husky gave birth of 6 healthy husky puppies and I was there to help take of care of them with her and to help them grow up. I helped potty train each of them and I would take all the dogs on walks. Since I grew up and raised a big dog, I know how to take care of them and I am comfortable doing so. I can also take care of small and medium dogs as I also some of those size in my youth. Back at home, I often house sit and take car of pets of other family members if they are to go on vacation so I am reliable in that sense as well. I currently work 7am-4pm on the week days but have evenings and weekends completely available! If you go on a weekend trip and need someone to take care of your pet, I am more than welcome to take care of them. If you need someone to walk the dog or to take care of them in the evening so you can go out and relax, I can also do that! I want to ensure that I provide a safe space with each pet I take care of. I make sure that there is clear communication between me and the client so that I know what their needs are and how I can be more helpful. It is important to be informative to the clients as well as making sure to keep your pet safe and I will do my absolute best to do so!
About: I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to get to know your furry friend’s needs, quirks, and preferences. My goal is to make your dog feel as comfortable and happy as they would at home, and give you peace of mind while you’re away. Hi, I’m Kelsey! I’m a passionate dog lover with experience caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I currently have a playful 3-year-old Mini Aussie Doodle, and in the past, I’ve had a Pit Mix and a Shepherd Mix, so I understand the unique needs of different dogs. Whether it’s an energetic pup or a more laid-back companion, I’m here to make sure your furry friend is happy and well-cared for. I work from home and am available for midday visits, evenings, weekends, and special occasions. My priority is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well-cared for at all times. With my background caring for various breeds and personalities, you can rest assured that your furry friend is in good hands!
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with Brandon after meeting with him and seeing how quickly they took right to him. He kept me updated with notes and pictures. I sure hope he’s available if I need a dog sitter again. Thank you Rover and Brandon”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7! I’ve been passionate about dogs since I was little. I am experienced in bathing, walking, playing, and caring. I am very careful, gentle, and respectful towards all animals big and small. I’m currently free most days of the week. Weekly appointments on Tuesdays would only affect the late morning/afternoon schedule. I do race within a barrel racing circuit that runs on MOST weekends. If I do not have races I will be free. This is only in the summertime. During the fall/winter/partly spring I will be back in university making time a little more sparse. During those times I will be only available on weekends. I have much respect for any environment. IF in your house, please do not be afraid to tell me anything important that I would need to know. I will always be sure to keep your puppies and kitties safe no matter what!! Animal safety is my number one priority.
About: I’ve had the privilege of having at least one dog in my life at all times, so I truly understand the bond we share with our furry family members. From raising puppies to caring for elderly dogs in their golden years, I have experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and energy levels. Whether it's a spunky Chihuahua or a high-energy Labrador or Dalmatian, I've worked with them all! With a deep love for animals, I provide not only safe and reliable care but also a fun, enriching environment for your dog. I pride myself on ensuring they have a great time while prioritizing their safety and well-being. I also have extensive medical knowledge, so if any health concerns arise, you can rest easy knowing I’m prepared to handle the situation. I completely understand how difficult it can be to trust someone with your beloved pet, as I've been in that position myself. That's why I treat every dog I care for like my own, providing the love, attention, and care they deserve. During the week I am home from Monday through Friday. That free time allows me the opportunity to care for your animals and give them the time and attention they deserve. My neighborhood is pet friendly , with plenty of grass and space for a healthy stay. My home is clean and pet proofed to ensure a safe stay.
About: I have 6 years experience working in a vet clinic along with 3 years boarding/walking and doggy day care experience. I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life I am a full time pet care professional. Providing walks and drop-in visits along with boarding. Early morning and evening visits are more than welcome. I have a fully fenced in backyard that I allow dogs to play in under supervision. They will be allowed on furniture and get tons of petting/scratches.
“Steph is the perfect pet sitter for my Gracie. She has a border collie just like mine so she is well aware of their energy levels and high sensitivity. You can tell Gracie loves when Steph comes over to visit her. Steph gets a lot of that energy out that is getting built up while Gracie is home alone and shows a lot of love for her. I know I can trust her while I’m away.”
About: I have always loved dogs, and have rescued/owned myself. I will make them feel as comfortable as possible with me and make sure they get the care they deserve! I am currently working full time but have a flexible Schedule! Currently am only doing drop-ins or walks, but could consider more in the future! I have a fenced in yard and one other dog! He is good with dogs. I currently am not sitting in my home though, but maybe in future

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Milford
Aubrey did a wonderful job dropping in for my dog Lou. Aubrey knew we’d be gone for a long day so she made sure to spend lots of time playing with Lou to get her energy out. She gave a cute picture and a very detailed update which reassured us that our sweet girl was in great hands and that all of our instructions were being followed perfectly. We will definitely be having Aubrey back again and highly recommend her!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Milford stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Milford choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Milford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
