About: 10+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, temperaments, sizes and ages have taught me that every dog really is one-of-a-kind, and I honor all of their unique personalities and needs. I do sincerely respect dogs, but I always have so much fun spending time with them! I’m a student, and I’m busy with class from 12:30-4 M-TH, so I have the most free time during mornings and evenings. I live in an apartment with my very gentle 8 year old poodle, who I’ve noticed is a comforting presence to nervous dogs. I live a very short walk away from a great dog park.
“Lukis was AMAZING! They sent such kind messages with their daily check-ins and made us feel completely at ease. They did a brilliant job caring for our two cats - one of whom needed a daily pill and the other who needed a daily inhaler. Even our shy cat felt comfortable with them, which is a big deal. We would 100% work with them again and again. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Chelsea did an amazing job watching our cats! She had great communication (clear, prompt, kind) both before the booking and during the drop in visits, which was very appreciated! One of our cats is a bit spicy, and the other is super shy, and she did a great job respecting their boundaries while also trying to make sure they were comfy. She clearly is very familiar with cats and has a lot of experience with them. I would recommend Chelsea to anyone who needs a great cat sitter!”

“Miryam is truly an angel with my babies. From our very first meet and greet, I instantly had a good feeling about her especially when my girl cat immediately gravitated toward her. She has an amazing ability to care for all three of my cats, balancing their different personalities. She's playful and engaging while also knowing when to give them their space. As we all know, cats can be particular, but Miryam has always been gentle, attentive, patient, and welcoming with my babies ever since our very first meeting. I will always have complete peace of mind knowing my babies are in her care, and I couldn't recommend her more highly ◡̈”

“Ariel was a great to work with. A strong communicator, animal lover and very punctual. I knew Frootie was getting great care and extra pets while I was away. I would highly recommend Ariel!”

I’m reliable and know how to take care of senior dogs and cats, as well as puppies and kittens. I have a cat of my own, and he’s well loved and cared for. I am currently in between jobs, so I have a lot of time. I am available almost anytime and any day. I will be studying from home, so there is no problem with my schedule. I live in an apartment with my cat, and he’s very good with other pets. I will take care of your baby, if you need any other accommodations like crate them or take them out in a specific time, I can do that.
About: Life can get busy, and sometimes we all need an extra hand when it comes to caring for our pets. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re balancing a full schedule.

I value clear communication and will always do my best to confirm availability in advance so you can book with confidence. I am very organized, always well prepared. I will make sure your pet stays on their feeding, walk , or play schedule. Even clean their messes!
“Caitie was excellent. She provided me with excellent updates with a photo on how my little poodle was doing as she completed her visits. She was very thoughtful with getting to know my little dog, who is cautious around new people. I will be having Caitie back next month!”

“Hanan is a great dogsitter for Frankie! She checks in on her & makes sure she gets a chance to run around and play. She sends lots of pictures so we feel good to see that Frankie is having fun. Hanan brings special skills to the job because of her dog training knowledge. Our dog barks and barks at new people, but Hanan is good at navigating the challenge. I saw Frankie warm up pretty fast during the meet and greet. 🩷”

“I have so much trust for Lauren and she gained that trust from the very first time I booked her. She treats my cat as if he were hers, very attentive to detail and with every trip, I am comforted by an ample amount of photos and videos. I couldn't recommend Lauren enough”


About: I worked at an animal shelter for about a year and a half, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I became familiar with dogs’ and cats’ diets, learned how to understand their body language, and gained experience administering medications when needed. I’ve also owned dogs for most of my life and have always believed them to be incredibly loyal and loving companions. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary assistant program. Most of my classes are online, with the exception of Fridays, when I attend classes on campus. I am generally available Monday through Thursday for most of the day, as long as I am given advance notice. I am also available on weekends when needed, with advance notice. My pets at home are very spoiled, so I plan to treat your pets the same way! I always want to make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while they’re with me. I also enjoy going on trail walks or taking long walks in general, so I’d be happy to have some furry company along the way.
“Tiyani was amazing! She was communicative, punctual, and even brought some of my packages inside when she stopped by which was definitely not within the scope of her responsibility but I appreciated it very much! 10/10 recommend, I could tell my cat was happy and had been well cared for when I returned.”

“Destiny was so wonderful and helpful with our dog Bella. She gave her lots of luv and playtime. Destiny is a great dog sitter with very good communication. We received text updates and pictures. She stopped in twice, while we’re gone all day, and really spent quality time with our girl. Thank you Destiny. We really appreciated your help.”

“We cannot say enough how much we appreciate Kristina. We have 3 dogs, one in which has Epilepsy and is timid with new people and with the first meeting with Kristina our boy loved her! Our other 2 love her as well and that was such a blessing. I highly recommend Kristina.”
About: I have grown up around dogs and have volunteered with the Detroit Dog Rescue, so I have had experience with a wide variety of dogs. Wherever you are with your dog (e.g. training programs) I will follow that--I do not want your dog's schedule or routine to get disrupted while you are away. I understand how to approach dogs, no matter the size. I am a Real Estate Agent, so my schedule is flexible and I can work from anywhere, so you’re dog or cat will get all the attention! We will go on walks, play, exercise, etc. I am comfortable working with animals of all sizes, various breeds, and all ages. I understand that pets are a part of a family and I want them to still feel that way when you are gone for the time period where I am watching them. I have administered insulin to a cat before, and other medications to dogs as well. I am a Realtor so I can work from home or leave your baby for the day while I go to the office. I do have some unplanned events for work, like showings and closings, but I will give him or her the best attention he or she needs! I will follow the rules you set for your fur baby. I will be sure to send you pictures, videos, and updates every day you're away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Southwest Detroit
Alex is an absolute gem. We needed a sitter last minute and not only did they come in clutch, they provided a world class experience for our cat. They were transparent, gave daily updates and sent all the photos. Our cat was so loved and taken care of while we were gone. 10/10 book Alex for your pet needs.

Sylvie was great taking care of our 4 cats and fish while we were away for over a week. I left a long and detailed instruction list and she had no problem following it to a T. Although our cats are typically shy, one of our boys took a liking to her as shown in the pictures at each visit. I highly recommend Sylvie to care for your pets!

Preti was great with our cat Nebula. She came by our place before hand and asked questions while getting to know our girl a little bit. She filled out Rover Cards with detail and let me know if something unexpected happened. Overall she was a great sitter. Will be looking to book again.

Really on top of everything, making sure she knows where everything is and the cats’ general routine before arriving, even made sure to double check with me when they got overexcited for their food. My usually shy cats warmed up to her quickly, and judging by the pictures had a great time, I’ll definitely be hiring Eleanor again when I go away.
