“We were so lucky to have Gina as our in-home dog sitter for our senior Golden Retriever. She was an excellent communicator, an incredibly tidy house guest, and a compassionate caregiver for our Olden Golden. If it were possible to rate higher than 5 stars, I would! Definitely recommend Gina to other pet parents and we hope to book with her again!”

“Wonderful! We had a long trip where we had NO service and Ellen was still sending updates and photos. We had no issues. Our house was in the same condition we left it in. Our boys can be a handful and Ellen handled them beautifully. Definitely will be rebooking!!”

“Heather house- and dog-sat for us over the weekend as our first experience with Rover and it went great. We were updated with photos of our dogs once she arrived (we had already left) and she was very responsive all along the way. It couldn't have gone any better.”
“Lauren is great! I've had Lauren as a repeat sitter both for overnight stays and for drop in's and I highly recommend. Lauren is great with both dogs - one of which is a bit shier and harder to get to know. Lauren is consistent and reliable!”

“Was very satisfied with the overall experience. House was exactly as we left it when we returned. Puppies were excited to see us too. Nicole even cleaned up the dog poo in the back yard, yeah bonus!”

“Rodney was absolutely great with our dogs/cat! Received LOTS of great pictures of all our fur-babies while we were gone, and he went above and beyond taking care of our house and daily chores (which he absolutely did not have to do, but we came home to that surprise!). Would absolutely rebook him again, and highly recommend him to anyone looking to take care of your pets!”

“Adriana did a great job taking care of our 2 Fur babies while staying overnight at our house. (1 cat & 1 dog) They were happy when we returned and we could tell they had been well taken care of. Our instructions were followed and she even washed the linens and remade the bed in the guest room. We would definitely consider her for our future pet sitting needs.”

“Julie is a blessing for Poncho and I, while we stay in town for 4 months, for work. She is very easy to talk to and communicative. She is very good with poncho, a 100lb pitbull. Thank you Julie!!!”

“Madison has been the answer to our prayers! She was respectful of our property and kept our 3 kitties safe while we were gone for the weekend. We have already booked her for two other events we have! Thanks Madison!!”

“Meghan was wonderful with our 2 dogs and I would love to have her dog sit in the future. She was thoughtful, respectful, followed instructions and took great care of our dogs. She has great communication and sent us daily updates and pictures. She has alot of experience with animals and it shows!”

About: Ever since I was a child I've been taking care of both cats and dogs. I can take care of your friends in any condition! I also specialize in command training alongside discipline in puppies!! I currently work part time at Meijer in the grocery department. My schedule consists of working Friday-Monday or Thursdays-Monday. I work the morning shift for the store which is 4am-12pm. Which will give me the rest of the day to play and care for your furry family members!! If you have more than one furry friend and can easily separate them if needed and make sure they are both calm with each other if they are in the same area watched very carefully. If they need to be crated I can do that too. I will make sure to my fullest ability for your pet to be safe around each other and me during the process.
“Lauren has watched our pup twice now, and will continue to be our go to sitter! She watched her for our Wedding weekend and it was such a weight off of our shoulders knowing our dog was in great hands ❤️”

About: Caring for my own pets has given me a strong appreciation for their happiness, comfort, and daily needs. I believe we’re their voice, and I take pride in making sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and able to enjoy their time to the fullest. I work full time as a salon manager but I write my own schedule for work so I’m very flexible and typically have weekdays off! I can work my schedule around whatever is needed! I don’t have kids and have a lot of free time! I am extremely responsible at keeping and taking care of all fur babies! I’m so passionate about protecting their safety and making sure they are well cared for.
