About: I've had 2 dogs for their entire life. Raised and house broken a lot of puppies along the way. I used to foster for It takes a village. I love dogs. I have treat trained a lot of dogs over the years. Kennel training is also something I've done. I work from home so I can spend a lot of time with your pet. I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet. I have a fenced in yard and lots of sidewalks and parks to visit locally. All pets need the same thing love, space to run, and food. I can provide that anywhere.

About: Why Pet Parents Choose Me 🐾Trusted by repeat local clients - References available. 🐾Known for being reliable, caring, and communicative. 🐾Certificate in Cat and Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) 🐾5 years of experience as a Veterinary Assistant 🐾Fostering experience, including raising bottle-fed kittens and fostering a DACC rescue dog who was once on death row - who now has the happiest forever home! Hi, I’m Monica DeSpain— a lifelong animal lover, experienced pet sitter, and proud pet mom to one sweet senior dog and three quirky cats. I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years, and I truly love what I do. My background includes 5 years working at two veterinary hospitals as a veterinary assistant, volunteering at the animal shelter, and fostering pets in my home. These experiences gave me a strong foundation in animal care long before I officially started offering pet sitting. Since August 2024, I’ve been providing trusted, compassionate pet sitting services to families in the Grosse Pointe area. ​ I also currently run a small online business from home, which gives me the flexibility to offer weekday and weekend visits, dog walking, and personalized drop-in care. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets — not just for feeding and potty breaks, but for love, attention, and consistency. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level — and I meet them where they’re at. Whether it’s energetic play, gentle senior care, medication routines, or just being a calm presence, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. My schedule is flexible and I do my best to accommodate yours. Let’s work together to plan for your pets needs. I should be able to accommodate most schedules. I will care for your pet with the same loving, caring and kindness that I have for my own pets. Most animals find me easy to be comfortable around.

“Hi! Jen is an amazing dog walker and I would highly recommend her. She has taken on walking my 18 year old Emma, a rat terrier mix, 5 days a week. Jen is patient and kind with Emma, from slowly waking her up each afternoon, to walking her in all kinds of horrible winter weather, to making sure her paws are clean when they return. And with my old sassy girl, trust me when I say none of it is easy. Jen somehow pulls it off, week after week. I'm so grateful to have found her.”

About: Hello pet-owners! I'm Blythe, lover of all things fluffy. I grew up with golden retrievers and owned a delightful hedgehog named Dwaeji as an adult. I have moved 12 times in the last 10 years (five of which I spent overseas), so I have been unable to own my own cat or dog, but I am a HUGE fan of borrowing other people's pets for some play time. I just purchased a house with a yard on the east side of Detroit (Morningside) that can accommodate dogs and cats alike. I am a long-time petsitter for friends and family and spent two years as a professional dog walker in Chicago. I am a student at Wayne Law and have flexible availability during the day. I am available for house sitting and happy to host dogs/cats in my house as well. Copper, Roo, Dottie, Lucy, Reese, Max, and Nugget are all prepared to provide references. (as are their moms and dads).

“Heather was awesome! Rocket was super excited to meet her during the first visit and I knew it will be smooth sailing the rest of the way. Great pictures and videos during walks, good communication to let me know how everything went and very quick to respond. Will recommend Heather to anyone that needs their pet walked or watched for a period of time. Thanks for all your help. Very much appreciated.”

“Megan helped out giving our big baby his walks this week. She was great and Bennie (our 100 lb rottie) quicklyfell in love. He was looking out the window longingly for her by day 2. Thank you, Megan!”

Christa R.

“Lauren is just incredible. She is very patient with my big puppy who still needs some lease manners and she offered great feedback on how he did, as well as some tips to help him improve his walking moving forward. I can promise Lauren’s time is valuable- I would recommend anyone who needs to know a good person is tending to their dog to get on Lauren’s books.”

Jacqui R.

“Kylie took both of my large dogs for a walk - she was great! She communicated promptly, arrived on time and treated my dogs/property with care. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for dog walking services.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog owner who has also helped neighbors and friends with their pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages and can walk long distances if needed. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a completely flexible schedule during the week. My 3-year-old loves dogs and is very caring and gentle.

I can walk short or long distances depending on your dog’s needs and preferences.

About: I've been lucky enough to wake up to a 4 legged friend by my side my entire life. I've been surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes including cats, golden retrievers, malamutes - I've found my love for them to grow increasingly with each interaction. From being a child where it was enough to simply love dogs to becoming a responsible adult recognizing the intricate needs of all, I am more than happy to provide the detailed love and care your beloved pet needs. Even my hobbies and career revolve around nurturing and caring for other beings - beyond loving on dogs, I am an avid lover of indoor plants (which means I would be happy to water yours!). With my services, you will be able to feel confident that your beloved 4 legged friends are safe and well cared for! I am currently in grad school for School Psychology and take care of my own indoor cats and cat colony everyday with food, water, litter scooping, etc. I am diligent in asking questions and file information to ensure that the visit/stay goes as smoothly as possible. I am a very organized person (former teacher) and also know how hard/stressful it can be to have someone watch your pets! I try to provide reassurance and information through the stay to ensure your comfort. Safety and animal comfort are my first priority!

“Nia was wonderful! She took care of my Zayle on short notice. Zayle still acts like a puppy and Nia was capable and comfortable with that type of energy and behavior. Nia was nice, professional and right on time. 10/10 the best the app has to offer! I’ll be booking with Nia again soon :)”

About: Ive always loved pets, and I’ve been a foster home for a local shelter for years before, recently moved back to Detroit and I’m looking to help out with pet sitting for some local people! I currently have a very active husky of my own! I’m a young professional who works entirely from home on a flexible schedule, looking to find some pets to care for! I am a very active person that will go on jogs and walks with dogs. I always go off of what the pets needs are. I love giving noggin pats and making sure pets exercise if possible. Keeping pets happy makes me happy, too!

About: As a dog owner of 15 years and a trusted caregiver of dogs beyond my own, I am confident in my ability to provide safe, reliable, and loving care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends and family have consistently trusted me to look after their dogs because they know I am dependable, hard-working, and genuinely love animals. I am currently in-between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I'm available on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate care on an as-needed basis. Since I am new to Rover and looking to become more familiar and comfortable with the platform, I am currently focused solely on dog walking services. However, I am open to caring for pets in my home in the future as I gain more experience through Rover. I have a fenced-in yard and currently do not have any pets living in my home. I'm comfortable allowing dogs to roam freely indoors, as long as they are well trained and have previous exposure to being left alone outside of their crate.

“Highly recommend Kari; she is local to Grosse Pointe, trustworthy, and a real dog-person! I never worry about whether our pup gets the engagement and exercise she needs when I'm out of town!”
