“I couldn’t possibly be happier with my dog’s experience at Teresa’s home. From our meet and greet a few days ago to daycare today, Teresa has been nothing but kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming to my dog and my family. Her dogs were a great mix of playful and chill - my pup is worn out this evening, haha. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I thought about daycare for my new rescue dog. Many more playdates to come. 🙂 It’s so comforting knowing she was in excellent hands.”
“With my first puppy I quickly became worried i'd never be able to take a vacation. George eased my own separation anxiety and I was comfortable taking my first day trip away from my 8 month old puppy knowing she was safe and cared for.”
About: I have trained, watched, worked with, handled, and loved on every temperament of pet from lovable couch potatoes, anxiety ridden, hospice care, and animals that do not do well with other people or animals for over 20 years. Through those years I have worked with rescues, dog shows, dog sports, and training and raising puppies and adults that have helped me to become an extremely understanding, patient, and proficient behaviorist and trainer I am to this day. Anything from walks, training, medical needs, behavioral needs, bathing, or just simple understanding is my expertise with animals, primarily dogs. I do have a full time job, however animal care is a top priority. I also have a partner (who is also verified on rover and a former veterinarian technician) that lives with me, which leaves me able to board, train, doggy daycare, or any need a family might need while seeking a pet sitter for their beloved pet/s. If your pet/s is boarding at my home, I have a fenced in yard with multiple types of animals that are all very well behaved and trained. I have a separate space in my kitchen for your pet/s or I do crate dogs at night time and place cats in a separate, closed area at night for your pet/s comfortability in a new environment. If I care for your pet/s at their home, they will have the comfort and safety of their regular routine at their home while you have the peace of mind that not only are your pet/s taken care of but so is your home while away. Following medical need instructions and able to administer any meds will be adhered to in the utmost manner. Whether your pet/s are at my home or yours for overnights, day time drop ins, or daytime doggy daycare they are treated with the highest level of patience and respect. Pet/s will also have numerous potty breaks, multiple walks if they need, and some good ol fashion playtime and love.
“My dog had a good day with Kayla and was well taken care of for the day. The dogsitter was ver attentive with communication and clearly let me know when I could drop off amd pick up Coby. She understood the instructions I gave for his care and made sure that his ear was taken care of. Coby clearly had fun that day and if I happen to be back in the area, I will definitely look up this dogsitter again.”
“Samantha was amazing! My husband and I took Maru to Michigan and needed someone to watch her while we attended an event. Maru spent two days with Samantha’s family, and we picked her up at nights. Our puppy is almost 6 months old and hadn’t been around many people or dogs, but Samantha and her family gave her outstanding care and great socialization. Maru came back to us happy and loved. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone who wants their dog to be safe, happy, and well-socialized while they’re away.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. Through my Rover bookings, I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs with many different personalities, including shy, nervous, and anxious dogs who need extra patience and reassurance. I understand that every dog adjusts differently, so I always let them move at their own pace while building trust through kindness, consistency, and positive interactions. In addition to my Rover experience, I volunteer at my local Humane Society, where I’ve worked with dogs of different breeds, ages, and energy levels. I’m also the proud dog mom of a rescue puppy, whom I trained using positive reinforcement. That experience taught me the importance of patience, structure, and making every dog feel safe and confident. During walks, I’m happy to reinforce the training you’re already working on by encouraging good leash manners, basic commands, and polite walking habits using positive reinforcement. Whether your dog loves long adventures, playing fetch, or taking things slow, I’ll tailor every visit to their individual personality and needs. As a fellow dog mom, I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care and how expensive pet care can become. That’s why I strive to keep my prices fair while providing dependable, personalized care that never compromises on quality. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, safe, and comfortable while giving owners complete peace of mind through regular updates, photos, and communication. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated like part of my own family. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for overnight stays on weekends and weekday ; and walks any day! I look forward to providing dependable, loving care and making every visit a positive experience for your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in a spacious, climate controlled home. I also volunteer at my local Humane Society, where I’ve gained experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs.
“Megan and Milo were great hosts to my Bentley for a few hours. We had great communication throughout the visit and Bentley came home happy and sleepy. Definitely will be booking again. Thank you!”
“Terri is always my 1st choice when it comes to hiring a dog sitter to care for my pups! She loves dogs and it shows because my pups love her! I always give Terri a 5-star rating because she deserves it!!”
“Katie was great with our small old dog! She sent several pictures and updates and was clearly very gentle and caring and attentive. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“Jennifer and her visiting sister, Joni, took amazing care of our Corgi and Cockapoo for the day. Jennifer's home and yard are perfect for furrbabies. The girls had the best time and were completely exhausted when we picked them up. We would definitely book with Jennifer again.”
About: I’ve helped care for a variety of breeds and temperaments, including small dogs, large breeds, and shy or anxious pets who need a gentle approach. I treat every animal like they’re my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique personality and needs. I'm currently working as flight pet nanny, this makes my schedule flexible to fit your needs to care for your pet. As I provide daily and overnight stays. We will have a meet and greet ahead of time. I begin the day with breakfast, then we will go for a walk and bathroom break. After that we will come home to play and hangout together.
About: As a former Veterinary Technician, I have 18 years of animal experience. I am well trained in basic animal care, animal behavior, as well as medical care and emergency aid. Knowing and understanding animal behavior, allows me to give your pet the utmost care according to their specific individual needs. My personal experience extends further than just dogs and cats, as I am also very comfortable with exotic pets (parrots, small caged pets, fish, amphibians, reptiles). Being that I personally care for and have in my home dogs, cats, birds, and livestock; I am positive that I can accommodate the needs of your pets. I have flexible availability and I enjoy keeping your pets routine rolling while pet sitting. Knowing your pet(s) are recieving lots of love, cuddles, play and exercise, as well as care in the comfort of their own home, can make leaving your fur babies much easier. Pets deserve the best comfort while you are away. I have been dog boarding and offering doggy day care before I became a verified sitter on Rover and can provide references from clients. I am now transitioning to primarily housesitting/drop ins. I will always propose a Meet and Greet beforehand, somewhere public for us to meet, and mutually feel comfortable about bookings. You may also expect a consistent stream of photos of your pet while you are away. If you love your animal companions as much as I do, I know that you want to know they are safe, loved, and well at all times. I am happy to answer any questions about my pet experience via text, call, or in person at our meet. Can't wait to meet your sweet pet! I work from home, providing animal services, and also have quite a number of my own personal pets. My daily routine consists of pet care as soon as the day begins. I spend about 2-3 hours every morning dedicated to animal care, feeding, medications, and enrichment. Animals are a huge part of not only my home but my life. Being as such, it will be no issue to care fully for your pets individual and specific needs. Every pet under my care will recieve whatever they need and more to maintain their regular routine at home. All instructions will be followed precisely. My many years of experience in training as well as animal care allow me to asses situations, body language and environments easily for safety issues. My priority is making your pet feel safe and well cared for in your absence.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Romulus commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
