Emily and her team took excellent care of our boy Milo on short notice. He definitely had a great day because he went right to sleep as we got home. Thank you so much!

Pattie was wonderful with Pepper! She communicated consistently throughout the day while being respectful of my work schedule. She sent plenty of pictures and clearly spoiled our baby girl. Pepper came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely use Pattie again for care when we need it.

This was a last minute booking which turned from 2-3 hours to 6+ due to an emergency, but Pallavi went above and beyond at taking care of Mylo! Cannot be more appreciative and would 100% recommend! Thank you so much!

Had a great experience with David! He was incredibly kind and flexible. He made sure my dog felt comfortable and happy—taking her for a car ride, going on walks, and giving her plenty of attention. It was clear he genuinely cares for the dogs he looks after. I felt confident leaving my dog in his care and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!

Constance and Terry were great dog sitters for my pup Obi-Wan. They were very attentive to Obi’s needs, and sent me updates with pictures every day. I will definitely be using their services again!

About: I've been caring for animals all my life and have grown up with them always in the home. I work hard to make sure they feel welcomed and love while in my care since I know it can be hard for them being away from family. I have fostered and volunteered with rescues and local shelters for 10 years. I have also been a wildlife rehabber for 6 years and greatly enjoy helping all animals in need. I do currently have one dog that is back end paralyzed and loves everyone and everything. Im currently working part time from home so I will always be here with the furry friends I am caring for. I have a daily routine of getting up early, letting the doggy's outside, feeding them breakfast, going for walks when the weather allows, lots of toys to play with, feed them dinner and have a good time together. We also work on basic training and enjoying lots of love and cuddles. I have a fenced in yard, wonderful neighbors and a welcoming environment for even nervous dogs. I have baby gates set up as well to keep everyone safe.

Anthony was great. We did a meet and greet and when I dropped her off the day, he sent me lots of pictures to reassure me Tilly was content and safe. He took her for walks and spoiled her. I plan to use him again. 5 stars.

Jessica is amazing with our new puppy! She was able to accommodate us on short notice, which we really appreciated. She walked him, fed him, played with him, and even introduced him to other little puppies so he could socialize. She greeted me warmly and treated both of us with such kindness. Our pup came home happy and tired from all the fun. We will definitely be coming back!

Sheila was amazing!! I was traveling through the area and noticed there was a Ford Museum i wanted to visit. I reached out the Sheila and she took the pups in last minute with no hesitation. I’m usually very particular about who watches my pups and usually meet up with them first before just leaving them with someone I don’t know. Sheila was very reassuring and sent me messages and pictures throughout their stay to give me peace of mind. I would definitely use Sheila again if ever in the area.

About: I have been with pets since I was 5 years old and I have had different breeds of dog in different phases of my life. Caring for a pet is the most natural thing that I could do. I am basically from India and I have not been able to get a pet after I reached Canada which is like almost 2 years. So when I heard about Rover, I just jumped at the opportunity to relive my old life that I was yearning for. Dogs are my favourite but I can take care of cats as well. We have a spacious apartment so your pets can enjoy running around. The neighbourhood is also a safe place. I proudly call myself a dog mom because thats how I care for the universe’s best species.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had my family dog, Chutney, for over 10 years, and taking care of him is really what got me into dog sitting. I did Rover throughout college and absolutely loved it, and after taking a break during the pandemic, I’m excited to be offering my services again. Since moving to Detroit, I’ve spent the past three years dog sitting and caring for many wonderful pups. I previously worked fully remotely, and while I’m now hybrid, my schedule is still very flexible. Right now, I’m only in the office once a week for a couple of hours, and starting in July 2026 I’ll be in the office three days a week. The good news is that I get to choose my own hours, so I won’t be gone all day just a couple hours! This flexibility allows me to continue giving pets plenty of attention, companionship, walks, and care throughout the day. Pet care fits pretty easily into my daily routine because I currently work a hybrid schedule and only go into the office once a week for a couple of hours. Starting in July 2026, my schedule will shift to three in-office days per week, but I’ll still only need to be there for a couple of hours each day. I also live with my partner, who is great with dogs and typically home during the day since he works evenings, so there’s usually someone around to keep your dog company and cared for while I’m briefly in the office. This gives us plenty of flexibility to follow your dog’s routine, provide lots of attention, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I also make time for at least two walks a day, along with regular check-ins, feeding, and anything else your dog may need to feel happy and comfortable. I make it a priority to make sure your dog always feels safe and comfortable. I treat every dog as if they were my own. I give plenty of extra cuddles, attention, and quality time so they feel secure and loved while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be in good hands.

I have room for a crate if your dog needs one as well.

About: I've been taking care of my own small-medium size dogs for the past 15 years. I currently have two dogs, a Shih Tzu and a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. I also pet-sit for neighbours and friends! I want to share my love of all things dogs to those who need their fur babies taken care of! I have patience, and attention to detail and will make sure your pet is always safe and secure! I currently work from work and am available during the week and weekends! I have a very flexible schedule and can work with you to meet your dogs scheduling needs! As a dog owner myself, I understand that each pet has its unique personality and behaviour. I will adapt and learn your pet's behaviours and tendencies to keep them safe and secure. I strive to create a comfortable and loving environment for your furry friend and to make them feel at ease in all environments.

Pattie has her yard set up for safety of the dogs. My dog was laying down when I picked him up, so I know he was relaxed with her. She was very easy to communicate with, responds quickly, and sent pictures.
