“Great job! I was in a pinch and Jack was able to come walk my little buddy. Gave him an extra long walk in the afternoon! A true animal lover. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“I loved Lauren! She was so easy to work with and very responsive. My girl clearly loved her. She took a lot of pictures and videos so I knew Zoey was in good hands. Will definitely use again!”
“Mary is great with my pitty!! She always did what I needed done and found the time to squeeze him in even in busy days! She does have a bad ankle so due to that we had to switch over so if u have a bigger stronger dog who pulls or is reactive, may be best to find someone else. But otherwise she did the job and walked him even with that ankle :)! She helped us find other options as well and always had tips to help when issues were brought up. She seems to really care about the animals and what they need.”
“tara is excellent - timely, reliable, and communicative. I had no worries leaving my dog with her for walks, and she's absolutely someone I would rely upon in the future. highly recommend!”
About: I am a huge dog lover who has grown up with dogs my entire life. I currently have three rescues of my own, Finn, Maggie🌈, and Penny. My dogs are my babies and I would give up the world for them. I am also a volunteer with an organization called The Un-Shelter and we support local shelters. I've also volunteered at DACC in the past. Let me help you with your babies- I promise to take care of them as if they were my own! I have some flexibility during the week and pretty open availability on the weekends for drop ins and walking visits! Let me help you out. I do not offer boarding in my home at this time. However, I am happy to follow any instruction or guidance you provide while in your home!
About: I used to work with dogs at a dog daycare when I was 19 and it really was the way I learned for my passions for animals. I really enjoy other animals as well as I’ve learned from my most recent endeavors with volunteering at a bird sanctuary in my home state and helping my grandmother raise and train her dog. I’m also no stranger to stepping in to care for cats and even pet rodents! I’m currently working part time at a breakfast cafe so I’m usually home in the mid afternoons and plan to spend a good chunk of my days doing rover services. I am very observant and wont follow or corner any of the pets I care for but I can keep a good eye on them without making any animals nervous. Safety is very important to me for both me and the pet I’m looking after.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was old enough for my parents and neighbors to trust me! Grew up with multiple of my both in the house and naturally my first job was dog walking and house sitting around the neighborhood. Have experience working with older pets, puppies / kittens, and large breeds. Currently, live in the Corktown neighborhood with my Australian Shepherd Mel. If you see us out on a walk, say hello! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible to accommodate your ideal walking and / or care schedule. My Australian Shepard Mel and I walk around Corktown daily and am always up for spending more time outside! For Dog Walking: I follow your lead on your dog's tendencies / preferences. I adhere to your preferred routes and instructions regarding leash etiquette, avoiding off-leash situations unless explicitly discussed and approved. If your dog enjoys canine company, I'm happy to bring my Aussie Mel along, who loves walking with friends! If your dog likes playing ball / frisbee, happy to discuss how we can accommodate that as well. For In-Home Pet Check-ins: I pay close attention to your pet's behavior and appetite, reporting any concerns to you immediately. I ensure fresh water is always available and clean up any messes promptly. I prioritize respecting your space, leaving it just as I found it.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant and taken courses in behavior and animal welfare, which have given me strong skills in handling, caring for, and understanding pets' needs. As a future veterinarian, I’m dedicated to keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe while giving them all the love and attention they deserve. I have a full-time internship, but I’m still dedicated to giving your pets the best care! I’m available on weekends and some evenings during the week. I always make time for play, walks, and extra snuggles to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions closely, maintain a calm and positive environment, and keep a watchful eye on behavior and health. I can handle medication administration and have experience in basic medical care. I’m dedicated to making sure your pet feels at home and well cared for, whether at your place or mine.
“Jordan was wonderful with our 3 month old puppy! He responded within minutes, was very professional and came to meet our pup the day after we contacted him. Our pup took to him immediately, and Jordan came and walked him several days a week for three weeks. Each time, he was prompt, sent us pictures and a run down of how each walk went. Jordan was also very flexible with a few of our unexpected schedule changes. He is truly an ideal person to trust in caring for your dog, and we will absolutely be requesting his services again!”
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, playfulness, and lots of love. What sets me apart is my ability to read animal behavior and adjust care to their unique needs. I have experience with puppies (potty training, high energy) and senior pets (gentle handling, meds, slow walks). Whether your pet is shy, quirky, or full of zoomies, I meet them where they’re at—tail wags guaranteed! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I love being active and spending time with animals, so walks, playtime, and cuddle breaks fit right in. I structure my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and comfort they need. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I’m flexible and committed to keeping their routine consistent and stress-free In your home, I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—meals, walks, playtime, and any meds—so they feel safe and stress-free. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. In my home, pets get a cozy, calm environment with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and play. I make sure they have a comfy place to rest, stay on their usual schedule, and get tons of love.
“They were kind enough to do a last minute booking for my girl. Unfortunately freya was a little too strong pulling so they couldn't walk her. They did however, let her out in the yard to go potty anyways. I really appreciated it”

He likes to walk and hike with his own Aussie Mel and can easily accommodate any walking or hiking pace for any other dog (young, old, handicapped). He understands dog behavior and can easily adapt to any dog's personality. Christian is also very reliable - something I very much appreciate with dog walkers!

“Troy is the best! He has been helping me with my two dogs and two cats for the last few years. He will take care of them when I go out of town or just stop in to give the pups a walk if I have a long day away from home. My animals LOVE him and he has always done an excellent job. He sends me text updates and photos of my pets after his visits, which is so appreciated! I ran and owned a dog walking business in Ann Arbor for 17 years and my expectations of "attention to detail" when it comes to pet care are very high. And Troy doesn't just meet them, he exceeds them every time. I highly recommend 🐶😺”

Alisha B.
“Alisha has never disappointed me with her care for my babies and she taken care of them many of times.

She also spends ample amount of time with them in and outside the house so they can have enough stimulation. She keeps things tidy as well. She is kind and always happy to take care of them and we are always happy to have her.”
