“Vicki and William were so kind to my dog. She had a great time with their Lab Bentley. They updated frequently. Just from the pics I could tell Blossom was very relaxed and comfortable in their home”

“If anyone’s looking for a dog sitter or daycare, I would not hesitate to recommend Rachel and her husband. They are so kind and attentive to the dogs they watch, and my Blue has had the best time with them. They treat your dog like family. Thank you! :)”

“DeAndrea and her family took good care of our sweet puppy when we had to go out of town for the day on short notice. This was our first time using a full day care service and I was extremely nervous. She kept him happy and healthy all day and got him tucked away back into his crate at home for before we got home.”

Retired/ I have all the time in the world to provide love and care. The back yard is fenced in and perfect for your fur baby. Currently do not have a dog.

“I can not thank Rohit enough for helping us out ! We had a house fire and needed young dog care right away-trying to find care during a holiday weekend!! He was our hero for Beaux and could not have gone back to work, at a hotel-without him❤️?”


“Makenna and her husband are just so great with Uno! They have a great place for him to run and play! This is our first time with Rover and would highly recommend her! Makenna has answered the many questions that i have had and I am worry free with him in her care. He loves playing with her fur babies too.”

“Samantha was an excellent sitter for our little dog. Our dog was so comfortable with her, we didn’t have to worry about her missing us while we were at work for a couple days. She got spoiled while we were gone & Samantha took excellent care of her. If I could rate 10 star instead of 5, she’d get a 10 star. Excellent sitter & we most definitely found her as our permanent sitter for Missy.”

“I'm grateful for Olani for taking larger German Shepard last minute. She did an excellent job and kept me up to date on his stay with her doggy with wonderful pictures. I will definitely use her again and I'm my dog would love to go back.”

About: I love dogs and recently lost my Whoodle after 13 years. I have had dogs for most of my adult life including a Bichon Frise, Whoodle, and a Doberman mix. I am good with senior dogs and puppies. I crate trained my last two dogs until they were 2 years old. I have dog sat for numerous family members and friends.. I have dog bowls, leashes, lots of toys and just need some cool dogs to hang out with :-) I am currently working from home and able to be with your dog most of the day giving them lots of attention and love. I will integrate tgem into my day as if they were my own pet. I have a large yard but not fenced in so I will be taking them out on a leash in the yard and for walks. I also have a park at the end of my street. I can do crate trained dogs but you would need to bring their crate. I do allow dogs on the couch and in the bed. I took care of a blind Bichon with diabetes for 3 years so I can care for older blind or deaf dogs and can administer insulin or other meds if needed.
About: Hi! I’m Tiffany, and I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. Growing up, my family ran a dog rescue and bred Beagles, so caring for pups is second nature to me. I had my own dog, Alexander—a loving Mastiff/Pit mix—for 12 amazing years until he passed away this past February. He was family, and not a day goes by that I don’t miss him. While we’re not quite ready to welcome another dog into our home full-time, we deeply miss the joy, companionship, and routine that comes with having a pup around. That’s why I’ve decided to open our hearts and home to dog sitting and walking through Rover. It’s a way to share our love and care with your dog while you're away, knowing they’re being treated like family. Whether your pup needs a cozy stay, a walk with plenty of sniffing time, or just a little extra love and attention while you're at work or out of town, I’m here to help. I'm comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I know how important it is for dogs to feel safe and loved. Looking forward to meeting your four-legged best friend! I work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule. I'm used to caring for a dog and look forward to it. :) I have a fully fenced in yard, a large home with plenty of space! We will treat your dog like one of our own and show them all the love they'll be missing while you're away.

“I'm lucky to find such a nice sitter for my puppy. Husky needs a lot of activity and Alexandra likes a lots of activity as well! She is experienced with dogge and take good care of her. Always keep me knowing how is my puppy doing. Everytime when I received picture from her, I was so happy.”

About: Hi my name is Porsha and I’m your one spot shop if you’re looking for someone who has not only extensive background with pets but also the love for them which is equally as strong! I have an innate ability to pick up on animal body language as well. If your pet loves attention and scratches I’d be the perfect fit for them! I've been around dogs since birth. My family and I has had Pit Bulls, German Shepherds and Bull Mastiffs….even cats so I’ve seen it all. I miss all of my pets so very much. I just want to give other animals the love I used to give my animals. If you’re still wondering if I’m a good choice or not, check my reviews and photos on my profile I work part time so I have lots of free time on my hands to play with your baby or go on walks or whatever their little hearts desire. We have an open-concept floorplan with a sunroom for your babies to roam freely indoors. We also have a large backyard with a privacy fence all around.
About: On top of having a genuine love for animals I am also task, oriented and believe in the upmost respect and welfare of each pet coming to my home. Pets are treated as part of my family however, I recognize that they are also held to a higher standard due to being a distinguished visitor in my home it is not only my pleasure But my duty to provide the best care possible for the best Rover experience. Phase 1 – Introduction An in-person or virtual meet-and-greet where the owner and I determine if care is a good fit. Phase 2 – Initial Care Day Often the hardest transition for the pet, but made easier for both the owner and me through successful meet-and-greets Phase 3 – Companionship This stage focuses on building rapport with the pet through bonding activities. Each day includes at least 30 minutes and three activities (e.g., walks, toys, fetch, petting, treats, and rewards). Phase 4 – Integration (for boarding or multi-day visits) At this stage, the pet becomes part of the daily routine and begins to see me as their temporary caregiver. Phase 5 – Reunion The happiest moment—when the pet reunites with their owner. Their excitement and expressions are truly priceless.
About: I’ve had many dogs of my own. My mom bought my first dog when I was 10 and my family and I experienced taking care of dogs over the years. We’ve experienced pregnant dogs, puppies, older dogs with arthritis, and much more. Just recently, I had the opportunity to dog sit my cousin’s husky Bella for a few months and I enjoyed it very much! I currently work part-time. The good thing about my job is that I don’t work long hours and my job is literally 5 mins from my home where your due baby will be. 3 days out of the 7 days of week I do not work and the other 4 days I only work up to 6 hours so I do have some free time to tend to your fur baby. No fenced in backyard however, in the even that your dog/puppy runs lose, my neighborhood is very friendly and familiar with who’s pet is who’s and they will try their hardest to return your fur baby.
About: My family bred dogs since I was born, so I’ve been active in animal care my whole life. Worked for a level 1 animal hospital during my pregnancy, learning the basics of emergency care for pets. I’m a stay at home mom with 2 dogs of my own that I’m already providing care and time for. I’m only away from home an hour or so at most to be able to come take care of my dogs again. I have any animals crated if I’m unable to keep my full attention on them, they are let out in a fenced yard every 1-2 hours for bathroom and extra play, and I have available extra space for special needs cases of pets that need their space.
About: I have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own who are very socialized! I’m great at training fur babies if they need any and I have lots of energy to keep up with them as well! My partner and I recently bought our home in Detroit that has a good size yard for play space for your dogs! I also do date night sitting in the surrounding areas so I have no problem driving out to give your fur babies a potty break and some love when you’re out at work. I have been doing house sitting along with pet sitting for some time now so I have great references if needed! I am married, no children yet and as I mentioned have 2 dogs and 4 kitties! They’re all very friendly and welcoming to others. I work from home so I have time to give love and as many potty breaks as they need while they are here! I treat all dogs like my own. I have a fenced yard and will do lots of supervised play time in it! My dogs love to play with other dogs as well, all supervised of course!
