About: As both a lifelong dog owner and a healthcare professional, I bring compassion, responsibility, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. Growing up with dogs — and now being completely obsessed with my own — has taught me how important routine, safety, and genuine affection are. My background in healthcare means I’m dependable, highly attentive, and comfortable handling special instructions or medical needs. Your pet’s well-being and comfort will always be my top priority. Your dog will be treated like family, with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I currently have a hybrid work schedule I would be gone working Monday-Wednesday for up to 4 hours total in the mornings between 8am and 12pm but home with dogs the rest of the day after that. I work fully remote Thursdays and Fridays and then home all weekend. If I do have to leave or run errands I make sure dogs are not alone for too long and have never left my dog alone for more than 5 hours max. I have a large fenced in yard and 2 dogs who love to run and play. There is no furniture that is off limits, dogs are allowed anywhere they would like. Caring for the pet would mean working around the dogs schedule and routine. Dog would receive lots of exercise, treats and cuddles.
“Queeny provided a safe and welcoming home away from home for our two dogs. She sent us photos or videos every day to show that the dogs were healthy and happy, and we could tell that the dogs were stress-free when we came to collect them. We like the fact that there was an enclosed yard for them to run in, and that they were the only dogs in the home. We will definitely use Queeny again!”
“Briana is definitely comfortable taking care of dogs. This was the first time ever to leave my puppy with a "stranger" and other dogs. My energetic puppy instantly warmed up to Briana's small dog and Briana was so calm and helped my puppy quickly become comfortable with her bigger dog. My puppy had SO MUCH FUN at Briana's with her fun dogs and huge backyard (an Australian Shepherd's dream yard). I was and would be totally comfortable leaving my baby at her home!”
“Shelby and her family were amazing with our puppy. Her daughter and her two dogs were her play companions. This was our first time with rover and leaving our baby with anyone, but we would absolutely recommend Shelby. They were very accommodating with our early and late flights.”
“Maritza & Daniel did a wonderful job taking care of our Border Collie, Kaylee, while we were out of town for a few days. The updates and pictures they sent kept us informed as to how Kaylee was settling in and showed how happy she was to become a regular part of their day!”
“Megan and her boys were amazing with my older pup, Brady! They gave him tons of cuddles and walks and frankly spoiled him. Megan is very communicative and sends tons of updates and photos. Thank you!”
“Daniella did a wonderful job caring for Memphis! She kept me updated throughout his stay and sent me pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. Memphis seemed to have a great time, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care. I would definitely book with Daniella again and highly recommend her!”
“Coryn did a wonderful job watching Ebony. They were reliable, communicative, and took great care of her. I felt comfortable knowing Ebony was in good hands, and I would gladly book with them again.”
“Sydney kept my two girls for a long stay, I received plenty of updates with pictures! They both came home happy and not stressed. I plan on using her for future stays!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life whether it’s my family dogs, volunteering at the pound, or watching friends dogs. My wife and I love dogs, but aren’t ready for our own yet. I am a corporate pilot with a lot of time at home, so I am trying to fill that time with something I love! I am a corporate pilot that averages 10 days worked per month, so I have 2/3s of the month at home. The days worked vary what days of the week, but I am looking to fill my time with something I love. I am very patient with animals. I don’t treat them like a pet. If Im watching them at my apartment, innovation hills park is next to me for walking. There is an enclosed dog park to let them run and even a dog bath station if they get dirty. If I am watching at your home I will be respectful to your home and rules that you provide. I’m an avid walker, so walks aren’t a problem. I would never take a dog on a walk in the summer without bringing water for them.
“Lindsay was wonderful with Kermit! She went out of her way to make our cat feel safe, even setting up a covered box she could hide in. She sent us pictures and updates every night and was prompt at communication. She is a very sweet woman and we would absolutely book her again.”
“Kris took such great care of our little Bella. She was very accommodating, especially with helping to administer medication during Bella’s stay, taking her on many walks and making sure she slept comfortably. Our dog is used to lots of attention, and it was clear that she got it during the stay. Her home is warm and inviting, and we were able to get to know her and her family during a meet and greet, which helped us plan for the stay as well. We knew Bella was being well taken care of, and having a great time, as she sent many updates and pictures throughout the week. It felt like Kris treated her just like one of the family!”
“Pia is extremely welcoming and friendly. She messaged back in a timely manner. She provided pictures and updates while Lulu was staying with her (which we very much appreciated). Her yard is fully fenced and safe. Lulu seemed relaxed when we picked her up.”
“Mark was WONDERFUL with my pup Gordie. He sent me frequent updates with cute pictures which put me at ease during my vacation. He even took Gordie to work with him where he got plenty of love and affection! I will definitely use Mark for my pet sitting needs in the future.”
“Sam was great! I received constant updates and pictures. My dog is often very anxious after boarding and this time she wasn't, which tells me that she was very comfortable and well cared for during her stay. I'll definitely be using Sam again!”
“We were so happy with all aspects of working with Rebecca. From communicating with her about our booking, our meet and greet, to the care and love she gave our dog while we were away, everything was easy and wonderful. Rebecca is a gem!”
“Jess is an absolute gem!!! I was super nervous about leaving my young pup to go abroad. She has recently experienced her spay surgery and needed a bit of extra care to ensure she stayed calm-ish and didn’t disrupt her healing incision. Jess was able to monitor the healing wound, keep up with Daisy’s schedule and send pictures and updates. Jess treated my pup like her own and I am truly appreciative of that. I will definitely be using Jess’s services again. My pup was comfortable and well taken care of so I’m a happy customer.”
“Outstanding stay with Ash. Right from the beginning he was great with Ace and safely had him meet another dog he was boarding . Throughout the stay he kept me well informed with pictures and texts , and he constantly took him for walks and provided great care. Would recommend and will use again!”
“Deena went above and beyond — making sure our dog Simba was comfortable, well-fed, and well taken care of! It meant the world to us to have Simba watched over while we enjoyed our hectic wedding without any stress. Thank you Deena ❤️”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Troy
This is the first time we used a sitter for our dog Chubs. He seemed to have a good time with Kate and her dog Kim. I wasn't sure if wanted to come home or move-in when we went to pick him up. They have a nice fenced back yard that Chubs seemed to explore. He bonded well with Kate and her dog Kim. Kate did a good job communicating with us. I would definitely use Kate again and have recommended her to our friends and neighbors.
We had a wonderful experience with Vinata boarding our dog, Vaayu! She was incredibly kind, caring, and attentive, making sure Vaayu felt comfortable and right at home. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands while we were away. We truly appreciate the love and care she provided throughout his stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Vinata with Vaayu again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!
This was our first time leaving Remi with anyone other than family. Iris and Tomas eased all of our worries by the regular communication and photo updates. They did a great job with Remi. When we arrived to pick him up, he was laying in their backyard in the sun. Totally relaxed and happy. Thank you Iris and Tomas!!
I cannot recommend Irv highly enough! From the very beginning, his organized nature and flexibility made the entire booking and drop-off process a breeze. He made sure to keep us fully updated before the stay even began, which gave us so much peace of mind right out of the gate. During the stay, Irv’s attention to detail truly shined. He sent consistent, thorough updates and photos, showing exactly how well he was taking care of Daisy. It was clear that she was in fantastic hands, getting plenty of love, and having a great time. If you’re looking for a reliable, attentive, and communicative sitter, Irv is your guy. We would absolutely book with him again!
She was a great sitter! She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was very attentive to my dog’s needs, and when she had questions or concerns, she didn’t hesitate to reach out. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog and made sure she was well taken care of. I highly recommend her!
June did an amazing job taking care of our Indica, the updates and photos were not just abundant but timely. June is affable, friendly and respectful, I cannot say enough good things about her as a care taker, will definitely have her take care of our Indica at anytime. Thanks for everything June.
Dominic gave excellent care to our 15 year old senior dog Kimble. We were on vacation for 3 weeks and during this time, Dominic gave Kimble his daily meds and walks. We were updated with photos of Kimble and his communication with us was timely. Would not hesitate to recommend Dominic for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to booking with Dominic again!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
