Dog Sitting in Royal Oak

“This was our first experience with Rover. Kristin did a great job dropping in to visit, feed and let out our new puppy. I loved the photos she sent! We will definitely book her again.”

“Samantha is truly the best! She has been doing walks and drop ins for us for over the past year. She is so reliable and we are so grateful for her!”

“Myranda did an amazing job with my cat, Hank. She went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of and to help keep me at ease while I was away for a week on a trip. Will definitely use her again!!”

“Hannah was great. Nala, my cat, has high anxeity and does not do well with new people, but Hannah was able to break that barrier and win Nala over. Next time I need a sitter, Hannah will be my first pick.”

About: Hi, my name is Carla. I am a 29-year-old Occupational Therapy grad student, marketing professional, and animal lover! I’m located in Royal Oak centrally close to a lot of neighborhoods. I am looking to pick up work to get some time outside more and make some extra money for school. I have always had a pet in the house! Growing up I had a cat and a dog that I was responsible for. I’ve lived with dogs recently, and I currently have my own cat. Unfortunately, I am not able to offer boarding or care at my current apartment, but I am happy to do overnight stays if needed in the client’s home. I have a pretty flexible schedule because I work full-time online so if I needed to work from a clients house or take my lunch break to do a dog walk all of these options are very easy for me to navigate. I would like to do a few dog walks or pet check ins a week, including weekdays or weekends and potentially an overnight once or twice a month . I will not be having pets at my home, but I am very mindful of pet safety whether that be on a walk or at a client’s house. I will ensure to know the temperament of the animal before I arrive. If the animal is afraid of me, I will contact the owner and reevaluate the situation so as to not add additional stress on the animal. As a general rule of thumb when walking a dog if another dog is approaching us, I will cross the street and I always make sure that if I am taking the dog out outside, they are on a leash or in a fenced in area.

“Grace was spot on timely helping us with Presley while we were in town and needed attendance. We would gladly seek her assistance in the future!”

“Jackie is amazing! She consistently lets our dog out while we are at work and gives her lots of attentions. Our dog LOVES her! We are thankful for Jackie and all she does for us!”

With having more free time, I have the flexibility, love and patience to help others with their animals I have been at stay at home mom for over 20 years.

About: I have owned dozens of dogs and cats since I was young and into my adulthood. I love animals and have been called very reliable and dependable. I work very hard to make sure animals feel loved and safe in any environment. I am comfortable giving animals daily medications and any special attention they may need. This is my full time income, so your pets are my priority. I have a 17 month old daughter who comes with me during the weekdays before 5pm, so as long as your pets are kid friendly and it’s ok for her to come along we would be happy to book with you! Currently available 7 days a week. I know how busy life can get, but my job is to make things a little easier for you. Help provide your animals with one on one time however they may need. I have two dogs of my own who are very strong, so walking a bigger dog is no problem. As well as 2 cats. I am very responsible and determined to make a good experience throughout the duration of the service. I can multitask as well if there are multiple animals in need of attention. Making sure to keep the house tidy and cleaned up to how things are usually kept in clients homes.

“Heather did great with my dog. She went above and beyond to satisfy my needs and my dog’s needs. Heather gave me detail updates about her visits and took the most adorable pictures. I recommend her and hope to have her around Shadow in the future!”

About: I have owned dogs my entire life (5 to be exact!) and currently have a 2 year old Biewer Terrier who is gentle and fun-loving. My husband and I absolutely love dogs and understand that pets truly are family members and deserve the best care. If you're looking for trustworthy, loving sitters, you have come to the right place! We look forward to taking care of your pup while you are away! I work from home and would love to look after well-behaved dogs of all ages! I can’t wait to spend time with your sweet pup! We live in a house with a big fenced yard, which is perfect for playtime. Our pup loves meeting new dogs but tends to be afraid of high-energy dogs.

“Thank goodness for Kevin. We are extremely fortunate to have found the best person to take care of Finnegan. Kevin is considerate, kind, and goes above and beyond every single day. Thank you Kevin, for taking on a challenging dog and making me feel like he isn’t challenging; at least not for you. :)”

“I cannot thank you enough for your help on short notice. I was glad that she was good for you and appreciate more than you know for this visit. Have a great day.....”

About: I have owned all types of pets since I was younger. I've owned and cared for dogs in all sizes, long and short hair. I'm great at walking with rowdy dogs and can teach a few basic tricks. I've cared for senior dogs towards the end of their lifespans and can keep up with high energy pups as well! I have flexibility to provide care early in the mornings and very late at night. Saturdays are when I can provide the most hands-on and time intensive care for your pets! I have lots of experience getting new pets to trust me. I am vigilant on watching outdoor activities, keeping gates closed, and any lead lines or leashes attached.

“Krystal did such a great job taking care of my cat Kiwi! Great stories about their visits together, even better photos, & she brought him a little toy that is one of his new favorites :) Would definitely book with her again next time I’m out of town.”

About: Hi! I'm Jenna. I'm reliable, attentive, and I genuinely treat every dog like my own. I've spent a lot of time around dogs with different personalities, from high-energy ones that need a lot of movement to more sensitive or anxious dogs that need a calmer approach. I pay attention to body language and try to make sure they feel comfortable and safe, especially in new situations. I'm pretty active and love being outside, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I'm also consistent and detail-oriented, so l'll follow your routine and instructions closely. I'll always send updates with photos so you know how things are going. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, or just someone calm and reliable, l've got it covered. I work part-time so I am flexible with my availability. I control my own schedule and usually can accommodate last minute pet needs. I can also do regular, repeat schedules. I focus on keeping dogs calm, safe, and comfortable by paying close attention to their behavior and energy. I follow your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and any specific instructions you have. I’m confident handling strong or high-energy dogs and make sure walks are controlled and structured. I’m also respectful of your home and will always keep things clean and secure. You’ll get updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing.

About: I’ve been a dog owner and lover since I was a child. Have experience pet sitting, dog walking through walker apps, as well as experience training my own dogs! I’m currently living a remote lifestyle so I will be home with your pet for most hours of the day! Plenty of time for attention and walks! I always make sure to leash your pets before ever leaving my house. I live in a safe neighborhood with plenty of areas for walks.

“This is the second time I’ve had Lavina watch my cat and I will continue to do so in the future. Very dependable, communicative, and my cat loves her!!”

“Kelly was wonderful! We were in a scramble after our initial dog sitter had to cancel, and we’re recommended to try Rover very last minute, and we were lucky enough to find Kelly. We have an older dog who is pretty anxious, especially with new people. She was able to set a meet and greet with us and our dog prior to us leaving. This put us and our dog at ease. She provided updates everyday that we were gone and photos of your pup too! I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone who needs a reliable and trustworthy person to watch their pet.”
