Cat Sitting in Okemos

“This was our first experience with Rover so we weren't sure what to expect. It's easy to say that Colleen set the bar very high! She was very communicative, which we really appreciated, and seemed to have a genuine care for our cats. When one of them had a slight health issue, she offered to take it to the vet for us which didn't end up being necessary after all. Any apprehension to using Rover is now behind us and we know that we can confidently go on vacation in the future knowing that Colleen will take great care of our pets. Great job Colleen!”

“Hailey did an amazing job with my cat! She was reliable, consistent, and communicative. I would happily book with Hailey again if I am ever out of town for an extended period of time (in this case, 10 days).”

“Islay was great. She stopped in each day we were on vacation, played with Bobby, and sent great pictures from each visit. He was happy and well cared for when we returned. Next time we need a cat sitter, we will definitely book with Islay again!”

“Jean did an amazing job taking care of Charlie. No only did she take care of our cat but also watered our house plants for us. In addition, Jean let us add days to our original agreement when my husband got sick and we couldn't return from vacation when we had originally planned. I would highly recommend Jean and will use her again in the future. Deb”

“I would absolutely recommend Lauren for your pet sitting needs. She is great with my dogs and they love their time with her. She’s reliable and trustworthy and any pets would benefit from having her care for them.”

“What a delightful experience. Taylor is kind, prompt, knowledgeable, and professional. I will absolutely use her again. She was also super flexible when I had to change my plans last minute. Definitely recommend using her!”

“Heather is extremely compassionate and a wonderful dog sitter. Our dog Bella just loved her and she has watched her many times. I recommend her.”

“Abby did a great job playing with Piper during our drop in visit. Piper was calm and relaxed when I got home instead of anxious. Thanks Abby!!”

“We are so glad we found Karen to watch our kitties! This was our first time leaving the cats for an entire week and Karen was great at keeping us updated. She took great care of our cats and our house and we are very grateful. We highly recommend Karen for petsitting and we will definitely be asking for her help in the future!”

“Molly petsat our 2 large dogs and chickens. Our dogs can be hard to handle - one is very old and needs special attention and the younger of the two has a lot of energy. Molly did an excellent job caring for both dogs and the chickens. The dogs were let outside often and we got photo updates when asked.”

“Julia has many years of experience caring for my dogs. She is attentive, detail-oriented, caring, and very responsible. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter to anyone. She is always very responsive and happy to accommodate my dogs' needs. I know that I can trust her and would not want anyone else caring for my pets!”

“Zach is a great guy. Our kitties were comfortable and happy with his care, as was I. We’ll definitely have him again in the future.”

“I was so happy to see Lori's schedule matched the days we needed care for our cat. Lori did an excellent job caring for our cat while we were away. She provided plenty of pictures and notes about how she was doing. She is very responsive and trustworthy. Would definitely utilize her services again in the future. Thank you!”

“First off, let me start by saying, Brittany is amazing! We have a six year old Pug named "Jim" who unfortunately, has anxiety issues. We went away for a week and left Jim in Brittany's care. Jim comes with a lot of "necessities" in his life, medications, massages, scheduled feeding times, etc. Brittany administered all of Jim's medications timely and without incident (which is tough to do). When we came back home, Jim was well-adjusted and happy. Brittany gives us a full report and keeps us abreast of daily activities. I was nervous at first about leaving Jim in someone else's care, but after her first status report and photos, I knew we had made the best decision for Jim (and ourselves). After all, piece of mind is immense. Do yourself a favor and have Brittany take care of the "Jim's" in your life, you won't be sorry!”

About: Hi, my name is Brooke! I just graduated from Michigan State University with a degree in kinesiology and a minor in public health promotion. I have always grown up in a dog household. I currently have a Saint Bernewfie named Bailey and she is almost eight years old! I am comfortable walking, bathing, feeding, playing, and giving medicine to pets. I am very comfortable with all breeds of dogs as well. I currently have a dog, so I am with my dog almost every day of the week playing with her, feeding her, and walking her! At my house I have a fenced in yard, so typically we put our dogs out there when they need to go to the bathroom or get outside. I am comfortable with just about everything. I have been a dog sitter before, so I know how to adapt and take care of the pets as needed. I am comfortable putting a dog in the crate, letting it out, and walking the pet as deemed fit. I will follow the clients requests and care for their pet!

“Jamie was excellent!! I have never used a pet sitting app before but Jamie made me feel so comfortable and I could tell from the meet and greet that my cat really liked her! She was so thorough with all of the check-ins and let me know how he was eating, drinking and using the litter box. She also took so many photos and videos and it was so nice seeing how my cat was doing while I was away. Thank you so much!!”

About: I have employment experience at a dog daycare/boarding kennel. Here, I was trained in dog behavior and management. I was responsible for overseeing a room of 15-30 dogs, while simultaneously encouraging safe play and maintaining a clean playroom. In my home life, I have owned dogs my entire life. My dog is my best friend, and I have many years or experience petsitting dogs and cats for neighbors and family friends. Experience with puppy care. I am a college student at MSU looking for some fun work to fill my free time this summer. I have a lot of availability during the days, and I would love to use it to pamper your pet babies! I engage in play, give affection, replenish food/water, and give potty breaks. I can attend to any special needs, offering compassion and comfort to your fur babies when you need to be away. It’s always a great time for both your pet and me :)

“She was amazing with my Kitty Nora. Very respectful of my wishes and maintaining my kitty’s schedule!”

“Taylor was great! One of our cats had meds she needed and Taylor had no problem with it. Same cat also is very shy and she came right out for taylor”

“I am happy to provide this testimonial for Lucy, who will make a fantastic caregiver on Rover. As a dog owner herself, Lucy understands the importance of providing a loving and safe environment for pets. Her compassion and dedication to animal care are truly admirable. Currently, Lucy is a 4.0 student at Michigan State University, demonstrating her academic excellence and commitment to her studies. Her academic achievements are a testament to her hard work and dedication, qualities that will undoubtedly serve her well in her future endeavors as a veterinary student. Lucy's creativity as an artist also shines through in her approach to pet care. She is meticulous about details, ensuring that every pet under her care will receive personalized attention. Her ability to observe and understand animal behavior is impressive, allowing her to tailor her care to meet the unique needs of each pet. Lucy has excellent communication skills and would be able to keep clients updated with photos and messages about their pets' activities and well-being. Her reliability and trustworthiness will provide peace of mind to families while they’re away, knowing that their pets are in good hands. I highly recommend Lucy for any pet sitting needs. Her passion for animals, combined with her artistic eye for detail and demonstrated intelligence, will make her an outstanding caregiver. I am confident that she will bring the same level of dedication and care to her future endeavors as a veterinary student.”
