Taylor was so incredibly wonderful!!! She took such great and attentive care with our two pups that we felt at ease while we were away (That can be very hard to do when you have to leave your fur babies behind!). We received consistent updates and plenty of funny pictures/videos to get us through our puppy withdraws, and that made all of the difference to us. Our home was left tidy, and I’d say probably even better than how we left it! We would 1000% book her again for any of our puppy needs. She’s one of a kind! :)

We were so blessed to have found Rick on this site. Our girls are our fur babies and are treated like children not just a dog. Rick became their new daddy for over a week. They were allowed to roam and sit where they wanted. Snuggled up with him on the couch or in the bed. Seemed so comfortable and calm when we returned. Was sent photos while we were gone putting us at ease. Highly recommend.

About: Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love being around pets of all kinds. I have over two years of experience working as a kennel attendant, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels. I also spent two years shadowing at a veterinary clinic, where I became comfortable administering medications as directed and recognizing signs of illness or distress. These experiences taught me how important patience, attention to detail, and gentle care are when it comes to working with pets. Although I’m new to the Rover community, I’m definitely not new to pet care! I’m currently working toward a career in veterinary medicine and am passionate about providing animals with the love, comfort, and care they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m always happy to adapt to what makes them feel safest and happiest while you’re away. I have two dogs of my own — a yellow Labrador Retriever and a fawn Pug — who keep life fun and energetic! Being a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies, and I’ll always care for your pets as if they were my own. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, trips to the dog park, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, patience, and attention. I’m currently home full-time from college, which gives me a flexible schedule for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I can often accommodate last-minute bookings as well. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I am currently a student at Michigan State University studying Animal Science, and I am passionate about gaining hands-on experience working with animals. Every opportunity to care for pets allows me to continue learning and growing in the field I hope to build my career in. When I care for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel secure. I follow your directions carefully, keep things clean, and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they’re used to. I’m more than happy to send regular updates and pictures so you feel connected and reassured. I treat your home and your pets with a lot of respect.

Madison did an amazing job pet-sitting for our golden retriever, Charlie, and our cat, Beesly. She followed all of our instructions carefully, gave both pets excellent care, and treated our home with respect while staying there. We came home to happy pets and everything exactly as we left it, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would highly recommend Madison to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, and we would absolutely book with her again!

We didn’t get to use Diane this time. Our 14 year old Border Collie, Mouse, passed right before Diane was supposed to sit. My husband ended up canceling his trip and stayed home with our cats. However, Diane was very professional and friendly during our meet and greet and extremely empathetic upon finding out about Mouse.

Marisa stayed at our house taking care of our dogs and chickens while my wife and I vacationed. She has an incredible love of animals we could see in her stories of her pets and she quickly bonded with all our furry and feathered friends. She took very good care of all of them and the house while we were away and was an excellent communicator keeping us posted on the day-to-day and how well they were doing. Highly recommended!!!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old and have always had a deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve helped rescue and care for many pups, giving them a safe, loving, and happy environment. Since high school, I’ve also provided trusted house sitting and pet care for families in my neighborhood, gaining experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and routines. I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger breeds, high-energy pups, feeding schedules, long walks, playtime, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every dog like family. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and highly communicative, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s dog walking, overnight house sitting, administering basic care, or providing companionship and attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved, exercised, and stress-free in your absence. I am currently home from college for the summer and have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your pups! I am available to walk your doggo anytime during the day and want to make this process stress-free. If there is a time that your pup does better walking, I want to make that possible for you. For dog walking and pet sitting, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet. During walks, I make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need while also prioritizing safety and positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including larger breeds, since I have two large dogs of my own. For pet sitting, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away by giving them plenty of companionship and attention. I’m dependable, patient, and highly attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I’ve always had a love for dogs. Every time I go and dog sit for a relative I always let them know they’re free to stay out longer because I’m probably already in love with your animal. I’ve always taken good care of my dogs and cats and other peoples dogs and cats. I treat dogs as family and just like they’re people. Whatever rules you will leave for me I will follow step by step and leave the dog just how it was before i arrived. Giving a dog company is a very important aspect because dogs need loving and attention just as much as we do. I feel that I am a great applicant for a dog sitting job because I am able to take care of the dog, feed the dog, and give the dog plenty of attention. However, after I leave, your dog will experience extreme sadness for the reason being he’s just had to part with his new best friend. I’m currently in college at JCTC part-time all online! Leaving my availability and attention wide open for your animal(s). I’m available all days of the week and all hours of the day. I’ve always found myself becoming a dog or cat’s best friend. That usually leads to me overcompensating for their needs. If an animal shows any sign of needing something I will literally always stop what I’m doing to make them happy. I just have that thing that animals love. My animals are always fed, always have a full water bowl, and always deserve treats for doing their duties. I’m also a people pleaser, so I’m understanding that different animals and families have different wants and needs and I’m always more than happy to meet those. At the end of the day I want to keep you and your family worry-free and feel 100% safe with me in your place of loving taking care of your alls pet(s).

About: I’ve been working at an animal hospital for almost a year. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, cats, and other exotic animals. I’ve also worked with their different sizes, ages, diets, medications, etc. I’ve got a dog and 3 cats currently. I also frequently pet sit for family and friends, often overnight or over the weekend. I love to go on neighborhood walks with my dog to make sure she gets her daily exercise in. Also playing outside and enjoying the nice weather. I’m available to let dogs go on as many potty breaks as they need! For my cats, I love playing with them and seeing all the different toys to make sure they never get bored. I’ve also done my fair share of cleaning, no matter the mess, I’ll clean it up! I am a college student with at most 3 classes a day. I can do early mornings and then evenings/afternoons. During school breaks, I’ll be available all day. There may be the occasional days where I’m busy or out of town, but more likely than not I will be free and not busy. I will most likely ask the pet’s owners what they prefer on things like going outside, for walks, and other daily routines. I will constantly be checking in on the pet and making sure they’re doing okay. If anything were to happen, I would immediately contact the owner to come up with an action plan and see what they would want to do, depending on the situation. I would make sure that the home is safe and that there is nothing that the pet could get into that would hurt them.

About: Myself & my wife, Madison, are both teachers with the entire days off at times. With that, we will be home with your dog most of the day (if not all day!). Your dog is welcome to roam the house and sleep on our furniture just as our own dog does if we are away - whatever you are comfortable with. We are currently a two dog home right now - we have a Kelpie-mix named Aero and mini-Daschaund named Winnie! They are both playful and loving dogs that will match your own's energy! In the past I have dealt with anything from puppies to rescue dogs (just like Aero). With Aero being a rescue dog, he did suffer from extreme separation anxiety at the beginning (no longer does) so I can accommodate your dog as needed if that is the case. Your dog will be taken care of just as well as Aero - like his short-term brother/sister - through plenty of playtime and treats (if they are allowed). They will also be allowed to sleep with us in bed, and on the furniture. We all can't wait to meet you and your pup! Myself & my wife, Madison, are both teachers. This means we have weekends, most holidays, and even the entire summer off. This allows us plenty of time to play with and cater to both our own dog and yours needs however is necessary! I currently have a full 7ft fence surrounding our yard with plenty of room for your dog to ZOOM! If we need more space, then I do have access to multiple dog parks, or can take them to my family farm to run around if okay with you. I will happily accommodate any rules and routines you have in place with your dog - from crating when leaving to not being allowed on the furniture to having to work on training by working for their food. I will always have open and honest communication with my clients, as well as provide constant updates on the well-being of your pup. We do also live within 5-10 minutes of multiple veterinarian facilities and emergency pet hospitals if anything were to ever happen.

Allison is a joy and did an absolutely fantastic job of watching Twinkle and Brandy while we were out of town. She kept us informed all along and sent quite a few photos. She's very conscientious and made a point of telling us when she needed to leave the house. We will, 100%, ask her to watch our four-legged family members again.
