About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember and have helped care for a variety of animals. I currently have two medium-sized, mixed breed dogs named Stella and Blake and a dwarf hamster, Hammy. I love all animals and would treat your pets like they’re my own! I’m currently a medical student completing my clinical rotations. My schedule varies a lot, but I love to spend my free time caring for animals! I take my dogs outside several times a day and typically for a daily walk. They eat twice a day and one takes medication orally as needed. I pay close attention to their needs and would do the same for your pets!
“Hannah was great! This was my first time using rover and she helped walk me through it. Leaving your home and your dog with a stranger is definitely an intimidating thing, but with all of Hannah’s communication I felt confident that it would could go well. I would recommend her to anyone! She was so nice and my dog Aussie seemed to have an amazing time.”

“Vivien is such an amazing pet sitter! We have a geriatric golden retriever with dementia, and Vivian takes the time to massage her legs to get her up and moving and carries her in and out of the house up and down the stairs. She is extremely patient and extremely gentle with her little girl. Cannot say enough good about her!”

About: I’ve had dogs around my whole life. I’ve had a couple puppies and have done basic training with them. From young to seniors I’ve had to give medications or special diets. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. I have four cats of my own, so feeding, playtime, and snuggles are part of my routine. Adding dog walks, drop-ins, or extra cuddle sessions fits in easily. I have a flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate time to making sure your pets get the love, exercise, and attention they need throughout the day. I don’t host animals in my own home, but I’m more than happy to care for your pets in their home where they feel most comfortable. I’ll follow your routines closely whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or bedtime snuggles to make sure everything feels normal and stress free for them.
About: Hi ! I am a current University student who adores cats and dogs. I have always had pets in the home, including two geriatric dogs, and am well equipped to handle medication administration, standing assistance, and frequent potty breaks. During the summer months, from early May to late August, I have a lot of free time throughout the day. During the academic year, I have classes majority of the day on Tuesday and Thursday ! I can handle any specific routines on diet, medication, sleep, and exercise. When working with new pets, I would appreciate being able to contact the pet parents if any questions arise ! My goal in pet care is to ensure the safety and comfort of all pets in the home.
“Allan did a great job taking care of my cats! I got pics every day, he played with them, and generally put my mind at ease while I was on vacation! I would recommend him!”

“My 2 kitties were taken great care of by Brooke. She spent quality time with each cat and provided the care that they both needed, including dispensing meds to one cat. They were loved and she sent good communication often as well as photos. Very reliable.”
“This was my first time using this site. I was nervous and unsure how everything would work. John'Asia came to meet me and my cat before my vacation. During my vacation she was on time. Bonded with my cat and really took care of my cat. I feel like my pet was in good hands. She sent me photos everyday and also wrote my cat's progress for that day. Next time I take a vacation I will definitely use John'Asia as the sitter for my pets.”

“Natalie was great! Kept great communication before and during her visits. Really grateful she was able to check on the cats and the house for us!! Would definitely recommend. Thanks again!”

“Alyssa is wonderful with my two dogs. She always sends such cute photos of them with every visit. She is friendly, reliable, and communicative. My pups are happy and it is clear that Alyssa is someone who cares about animals. I would highly recommend.”

About: Hi! My name is Jayden and my wife Lisa and I are excited to care for your pup like they’re part of our family. Lisa works from home and I work a hybrid schedule, so there will almost always be someone home with your dog to give them attention, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day. We also have 2-year-old twins who absolutely love dogs and are used to being around them. We always make sure interactions are gentle, safe, and fun for everyone. We have a 1-year-old King Charles Spaniel named Redford who is very friendly and loves having other dogs around to play with. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we live in a great neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Your pup will get at least two long walks every day, plus as many potty breaks as they need. We love getting outside and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with us! I am completely free on the weekends. Happy to do drop in visits or walks. I am also free during the evenings and during lunch hours on Wednesday and Friday. Let me know what schedule will work well for your pet. I will treat your pets like they are my own. I will make sure to give them the love and attention that they need and carefully look over your instructions to make sure they are properly cared for.
“Highly recommend Kayla! I have a 19 week puppy full of energy and Kayla surely gets all his energy out like requested. She doesn’t just let him out to go potty and sits around. She actually plays with him and makes sure he’s running around and spending all his puppy energy. I’m very happy with her services!!!! Used her twice already and will be rebooking for sure.”

“Claire was amazing. She kept in touch throughout each day while we were out of town watching 3 of our dogs. She is very responsive and sent us pictures every day and took amazing care of our pups.”

Ottawa Hills cat parents share their Rover experiences
Natalie was great about letting me know the daily status of our 3 cats. She was able to send me pictures of 2 of the cats but not my skittish girl. I know she tried but she can be very elusive. All the cats are rescues and each have their own personalities but she was still able to assure us while we were gone

anna is such a lovely human and an incredible communicator. she stopped by to feed our cat & dog and made sure our dog went to the bathroom. she followed all of the instructions left and sent photos and updates during her time with our girls! so grateful to have a trustworthy person come to take care of our girls! will definitely book anna again in the future :)
