“Colleen was wonderful! She kept us up to date of how his stay was going throughout the entire weekend. This was our pups first time ever boarding; and we can tell he really enjoyed himself. She took fantastic care of him and even paid attention to how we are training him and continued that while he was in her care. We are super thankful to have found someone that will attend to our pups individual needs. We will definitely be back!”
“My boy Tucker is a very playful, snuggly guy that requires a lot of attention aka love. Sabrina and family gave him just what he needed to feel comfortable and his playmate Stella was the cheery on top! We really appreciated all the photo updates on our boy and seeing him happy and having a great time! We will definitely be booking again the next time we need a sitter. A huge thank you to Sabrina and Family!”
“Desirae was amazing ! She kept me in the loop on my pet while I was away and she and her family treated her just like one of their own... our pup had a fantastic time and was not stressed out by my absence which meant I could enjoy my vacation without worry too ❤️ Thank you sincerely”
“Highly recommend! Cooper was well taken care of and Martha provided regular updates with photos. She went above and beyond, taking him for walks and playing fetch. It was heart warming to see Cooper cuddle up to her as we left, not wanting to leave. A true testament to her care and attention. We will definitely be seeing her for future boarding opportunities!”
“Sarah was amazing with my Australian Shepard! She kept him busy all weekend with lots of activities and play time and kept me updated with tons of photos of him with all his new friends!”
About: I have a four year old dog who I love and cherish. I’ve grown up around cats and other animals and have always had a love for animals. I work part-time and I also attend college. My schedule is pretty limited at the moment and I would need at least two-weeks in advance for a sitting job. I will treat the pets in my home like my own. I will take them for walks and play with them. They will be allowed on furniture and I will give them treats.
“Donielle is a phenomenal pet sitter! This was our first time leaving our dog, and we never worried for a minute. She has years of experience and took fantastic care of our pup. It felt like our dog was on her own vacation and having so much fun she didn't even miss us! I highly recommend Donielle for her professional and caring service.”

About: - I've grown up with three dogs and have trained all of them from their puppy ages - I can help administer medication whether it's in pill or liquid form - I can help take care pets with illness that need more attention and special care I'm currently working from home Tuesdays - Fridays and have the space to watch your fur baby while you're out. I know from personal experience how hard it can be to leave your pet at home all day so I would like to help others feel comfortable about leaving their pet to go to work or vacation! As for a pet friendly environment, I have a fenced in dog park at my apartment complex that I can take your fur baby to. There are also long walking trails near me I can take them on. One thing to mention is that I have a small Maltipoo male with me that I've raised since he was a puppy, and he's so friendly with all dogs. Your dog will have a play mate or if you'd rather your pet be separate from other animals, arrangements can be made to accommodate you and your pet!
About: I have had animals in my home for my entire life. And I do truly enjoy spending time with all animals, They keep me active.

I have a nice grassy with cement area fenced in yard with ample shade & a friendly dog to play with & to keep other dogs company.
About: I have had the joy of owning and caring for dogs, cats, Guinea Pigs and even a bunny (8years!). I only take in one dog at a time for individualized care. I can stop in for a visit during the day and home by 4 M-F and home the rest of the night. Home on weekends except church. I have a large back yard to walk dog and play.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Okemos
Vanessa was absolutely wonderful! She was so easy to communicate with, sent daily updates and pictures, and was always very responsive. Our dog had an ear infection when we dropped her off and she went above and beyond in helping her get the right level of care. We couldn’t be more grateful for the peace of mind she provided us with while taking care of our dog.
Priscena was absolutely wonderful with my cat! She is incredibly caring, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. I could tell that she really cared about pet and enjoyed spending time with him, which made me feel so much more comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent me updates and pictures every day, so I always knew how he was doing. She was also super flexible and accommodating when I needed to change the drop-off time, which I really appreciated. Priscena is such a kind and responsible cat sitter, and I would absolutely trust her with my pet again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for and love their cat!
Chris gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. He was confident and poised when it came to caring for our busy puppy, which made it so much easier on us to leave her in his and his family's care. We received beautiful pics of our dog playing and snuggling, and reassurance that she was doing well regularly.
We don’t leave Lincoln very often so we were very happy with her level of comfort with Michaela. She came home happy and Michaela said she was great during her stay. If we need care for our dog again, we will definitely be happy with booking Michaela in the future.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
