“Katie and Kristen were great! They were extremely responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates. Our dog settled in quickly and was very comfortable with them.”
“Beth was wonderful with our dogs! She took great care of our two young Labradors, who are big, goofy, active and into everything. She provided daily updates and photos, and helped us to feel completely at ease about our beloved dogs while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Renee took very good care of Bean for eleven days while my husband and I took a cruise. It was so nice to know Bean had company and was in good hands while we were away. This was my first experience with boarding a cat and the Rover app was a great help. I searched offers in my area, read Renee’s profile and we exchanged information. Bean enjoyed the meet and greet and that sealed the deal. Renee sent pictures and kept us informed. I highly recommend her service.”
“Our dog has stayed with Ariana three times, and we are so grateful to have found her! Our dog loved her instantly, and has been very excited to go back each time. We would give her 6 stars if we could! She is very communicative, caring, and flexible. And with so many sitters on this site overloading themselves with pets to care for, it's great to know that with her one-dog policy, our pet will be a priority when he stays with her. Would highly recommend Ariana!”

“Melissa was a great sitter for our dog Dusty. She sent pictures and kept us updated. She was flexible when we ended up being later than expected for pick-up. I'm sure Dusty had a great time and we felt comfortable leaving her in good hands. I would definitely call on her services again if and when the time comes.”
“Mengdongxue (Laura) was great. She took in my two dogs for 4 nights + and made it easy to drop off and pick up. Consistent photos and nice long walks. Felt very safe leaving my dogs there and will 100% utilize her again. Very sweet and good communication.”
“We were able to fully enjoy our two week vacation knowing the furry members of our family were having fun too. It was like sending the kids to camp where they could play, exercise. and make new friends. We call Caroline the dog whisperer. She sent us photos and videos everyday and we knew our pups were being kept safe and well-cared for. Bolt, Snickers and Sky say, “Thanks for a great stay. Hope to see you again soon””
About: Hi, I'm Ariana! I'm a loving and caring person who has always had a huge love for animals. I have two dogs of my own at home, so I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to take care of your pets. I love spending time with dogs, whether that's going on walks, playing, or just giving them lots of attention and love. I'll always treat your dog like they're one of my own and make sure they're happy, safe, and well cared for! I’m in my pen friendly apartment a lot throughout the day so having a dog to take care of/play with will be an amazing thing to look forward to. I have two dogs of my own back at home, but while I’m at school I sadly don’t have any with me. That being said, I can read there needs and wants pretty easily and will make sure that your fur baby has the most comfortable stay/time.
“Catherine has sat my dogs twice, each time for about a week. When we brought them back, they were super excited to see her! Catherine kept the dogs entertained with frequent walks to the park next door and plenty of play time. She paid careful attention to our instructions to reinforce our training. Catherine handled a kerfuffle between our dogs wonderfully, separating them as soon as it happened and attending to their needs right away. She communicated clearly throughout. I highly recommend her, especially if your dog can use some additional socialization!”
“Natiely is a loving and compassionate person. She was incredibly conscientious and caring with my senior dog, Toby. She closely monitored his adjustment and responded appropriately, often putting techniques she had learned into practice to help Toby feel more comfortable and build trust with her. Her attentiveness and patience allowed Toby to relax and feel at ease much more quickly than usual, which, in turn, gave me tremendous peace of mind. I truly appreciated the care and understanding she showed toward him.”
“Amy did great with Figs. she paid attention to how he reacted with dongdong, and made good modifications. she fed him well and did great with playing and sending cool pics of figgy lounging! love it!”
“Teresa was amazing! She took great care of my little guy! I felt very comfortable and you can tell she loves the animals she sits for and treats them like her own pups! She sent me a bunch of pics while I was away which reassured me he was well taken care for! Would 100% book again!”
“Elizabeth was such a wonderful host for our dog! They went on frequent walks and I received plenty of photo updates. Our booking was very last minute after our original plan for care fell through, and she was so flexible working with us. Highly recommend!”
“Andrew was great! He is quick to respond to questions and kept us updated on how our pup was doing. We had some travel glitches and Andrew was incredibly flexible to help. Our pup loved his yard and we will be sure to book again.”
“Jennifer was a fantastic pet sitter! She send daily updates on how Maple was doing like sleeping on her lap ❤️, it was reassuring to read how much she and her family cared. Thanks so much for your kindness 😊”

“Thank you Richard, Sasha, and Charlie for taking extra good care of our Velcro cat.

“Katharyn was really great and patient even with my little scaredy cat. I came home to clean litter boxes and happy cats. Would definitely rebook and recommend in the future!”
“Lindsey was super responsive and a big hit with our cats. She sent some great pictures and videos every visit. I would absolutely recommend her if you’re looking for a pet sitter, and would hire with her again!”
“This is the first time I tried Rover app and Lizz's pet siitter service for our 2 cats. She did an awesome job. She sent pics and report about our pets everyday. Took extra effort to check on our one very shy cat. Highly recommend her and definately will use her services again.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 8 and got my first kitten, and later welcomed a second cat into the family. I have experience caring for cats of all ages, including senior cats, and am comfortable administrating medications if needed. I also have experience cat sitting with indoor cats, indoor-outdoor cats, and caring for outdoor only barn cats.
“Jessi was very responsive and did an amazing job of sending updates and pictures. One of our cats need medication multiple times a day and Jessi did a great job of finding ways to get her to take it.”
“Lauren was amazing! She was always on time, communicated really well, and sent me pictures and updates of Lucio every day. Lucio really liked her and seemed very comfortable with her, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She was also incredibly nice and easy to work with. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Fatima is amazing! She did a great job watching my cat while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and she took the time to play with him too. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future if I ever need a cat-sitter again!”
“Sara was great and very helpful and flexible. She helped us to make the booking right (we needed one visit in some days and two visits in other days and the app didnt allow us to book this way but Sara called them and they fixed). Our cat is usually shy in the beginning but she warmed up for Sara really quickly. Sara sent us complete updates and many pictures ?. We plan to hire her again and will reccomend her to anyone looking for someone reliable to take good care of their pet.”
“Huge thanks to Wutt Hmone for providing a completely stress-free experience! They took wonderful care of Mimi and kept me updated the whole time. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive sitter in the area.”

“Meredith was great looking after both our cats, she kept us updated with photos and good communication throughout. It was clear she gave them the time and attention they deserve and she was super proactive with asking questions. Overall Meredith is super friendly and trustworthy and I would have her cat sit again!!!”
About: I am excited to help care for your pets! I grew up with two dogs of my own and have also spent many hours volunteering at local animal shelters to give some love to animals in need. I currently have two pet rats, and am a lover of all creatures big and small (although I do have a soft spot for cats). I’m currently in the interview process for a few full-time positions, so I am not booking services that are more than a month out just in case my schedule changes. When caring for your pet(s) in your home, I will always do my best to make your pet feel as comfortable and loved as possible! I know that each pet is different, and I will always make sure to have a detailed conversation with you about how I can best connect and care for your pet(s).

About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for years and genuinely love caring for animals. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone trustworthy, attentive, and patient. I’m especially attentive to dogs’ comfort levels, routines, energy, and emotional needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just consistency and calm energy, I adapt to what helps them feel safe and cared for. I have experience with: • Daily walks and exercise • Senior dog patience and slower-paced care • Administering routines and medications if needed • Dogs with anxiety or overstimulation • Maintaining structured feeding and potty schedules • Providing frequent updates and communication I work from home frequently and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide focused attention and supervision. I treat pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own dog. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy building pet care into my daily routine. I’m active, enjoy walks and outdoor time, and naturally structure my day around consistency and attentiveness. Because I have a dog of my own, caring for pets is already part of my everyday life, including walks, feeding routines, playtime, comfort, and making sure pets feel safe and settled. I’m home frequently and able to provide regular supervision, attention, potty breaks, and updates throughout the day. I believe pets do best when they feel safe, calm, and comfortable, so I try to maintain consistent routines and pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs. In my home, I provide a clean, quiet, and relaxed environment with regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision. I’m mindful of overstimulation and always make sure pets have space to rest and decompress if needed. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s established routines as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, crate preferences, and house rules. I also understand how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel at ease while they’re away. Safety, attentiveness, and trust are extremely important to me, and I care for pets with the same level of responsibility and compassion I would want for my own dog.
“Monica and Razvan were life savers! They took a last minute reservation when I was traveling in the area. They took in my pup with warm welcoming arms. They took great care of her, sent pictures and updates throughout the day. My pup seemed very happy! I highly recommend them!”
“Phoebe had a great visit with Kaeden! It was her first daycare experience. Kaeden communicated well, answered all of my questions, and provides lots of photos. The backyard area is very secure. We will be back!”
“Faith was great! She was quick with communication and made sure to send pictures throughout the day. Drop off and pick up was very smooth. Rosey has big smile on her face and seemed so happy when I picked her up. Will definitely be rebooking and would recommend Faith!”
“Jennifer was excellent with our foster girl. Our girl had some special requests/needs and Jennifer accommodated those! I got a lot of updates throughout the day which I really appreciated. I highly recommend jennifer for dog sitting and will definitely request her in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m a junior at UofM. I grew up with dogs and cats, and was a part time zoo curator in high school so I have the experience to take care of all sorts of pets. I love going outdoor with my pets and spend quality time with them. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m home everyday after 5pm and will be in town most weekends. Based on your pets’ preferences, I’m able to walk them in the mornings or evenings on a daily basis. I live on the first floor with beautiful natural areas nearby. I am able to take care of dogs who pull and high energy dogs.
“My did such a great job with my anxious pup! My dog had quite a bit of anxiety as I was leaving, but My knew exactly how to soothe and comfort her. She shared that she took her on a walk to help calm and distract her and my normally otherwise anxious dog had a good stay, which I really appreciated. It is evident that she has a lot of experience. I’m also so grateful that she was willing and able to accommodate my last minute daycare request. I highly recommend her!”
“Paula took such wonderful care of our dog Mozzie. We cannot recommend her enough. We rarely leave him with anyone due to his separation anxiety issues but she was awesome helping him adjust and feel comfortable. We were thrilled to find such a caring and thoughtful pet sitter. Paula was also very helpful when we needed to pick Mozzie up at a different time than originally scheduled and she was kind enough to reassure us that he was adjusting well. She took him out for long walks and sent pictures early in his stay. We would have Paula watch our dog again in a heartbeat!”
About: I am lifelong dog owner experienced with health needs, medication routines and rescue trauma care. Patient, reliable and deeply commited to loving and attentive care. I work from home from 8am to 5pm, so I’m able to provide regular visits for your pet in the mornings, as well as in the afternoons and evenings. I will keep a close eye on everything in the environment to make sure your pet feels safe and happy during your absence. I’ll keep you updated and send photos regularly.

“Casidy has been awesome in taking care of our 100 pound Bernedoodle twice a day while I was out and my teens at school.

She has a big Schnauzer herself and I did not worry once that she was comfortable with our maxi-sized Olly.”
“Elayna was very quick to respond and very communicative. She was extremely flexible with my last minute request and tons of disorganization on my part. Very attentive to my senior dogs needs. Would highly recommend!”
“Our dog was supper happy and calm when we got home after Tori walked him and spent time with him. I can see he had a great time with her! She was also easy to communicate with. I would request her services again in the future, and recommend her to other dog owners.”
About: I am a 27 year old grad from UVA in Ann Arbor for my MBA. I grew up with a big dog at home (100lbs) and adopted a cat 8 years ago who I adore. In the past, I have fostered puppies, kittens, dogs, and cats, so have a wide variety of experience. I am very comfortable getting pets to take medication (oral or ointments) as I’ve had experience with my own pets and fosters. I look forward to hanging out with your animals! I’m currently an MBA student with a fairly flexible schedule. Availability varies throughout the week, with all evenings plus full day Fri-Sun almost always open for help. I have a lot of experience caring for pets at my clients’ homes and will always send pics when owners are away and missing their fur babies!
“Jessi knows just what our Hiro needs. Our rescue dog can fearful of other dogs and be reactive. Jessi’s calm confident demeanor helps our dog remain calm and confident so he is able to walk our neighborhood. Jessi has a way with animals!!”
About: Growing up I lived with several dogs (big and small, some who required extra care) and babysat friends' dogs as an adult. I now live with my orange tabby cat, soda. I have several years of healthcare experience with direct clinical (human) patient care. I can identify and act in the event of a crisis, and am a calming attentive caregiver always. If nothing else, I'm far from faint-hearted. I am currently available every day and although I’m planning to attend UMich full-time in January I still anticipate having time each day to care for pets. Soda is a sweet and social 7lb tabby. He loves to be held and carried around the house. Building routines with soda has been a joyful insight into his personality and thoughts, be that our morning coffee time (no coffee for him, but he likes the smell), grooming, or finding a comfy spot to hide from the vacuum. I adore his curiosity and am grateful to be there with him when he needs me. Soda’s trust that I can be a safe place for him means the world to me. I know how important that trust is between all pets and people, and the trust you place in me to care for your pet is so important. I understand each animal is different and would love to know what quirks and routines are important to you and your pet.
About: I have owned several dogs and cats and have been responsible for caring for them for the past 10 years. I grew up on a farm, so I have experience with pigs, sheep, goats, and some horses. I also watch dogs and cats for family friends, and I love all animals! I have a hybrid work schedule and typically from home 3 days a week. I am happy to care for animals in the mornings and afternoons when I go into the office (typically 9am-4pm) and throughout the day when I work from home. I walk my dogs with leashes, and they are crate trained for the night. However, I also have experience with dogs who are trained with shock/recall collars and dogs who don’t use crates. I am comfortable with litter boxes for cats, and have no problems keeping them clean.
About: I have taken care of a wide variety of dogs, including puppies and senior dogs, large and small breeds. I used to own guinea pigs and also have experience caring for rabbits and cats. I am home from college until June 24th, and available every day of the week until then! My day-to-day schedule this month is very open and flexible. While I can’t care for pets in my own home this summer, I am more than happy to do anything from just a short walk to being with them in your home for hours. I am very considerate of your space and any special requests.
“Excellent dog walker! Mendongexue came twice a day. She was consistently on time, very sweet with Rosie, and took her on unhurried walks. Lovely and professional.”
About: I am overall an animal person and have taken care of pets for neighbors and friends for as long as I can remember. My experience includes dogs and cats varying in ages; from pets under the age of 1 to over the age of 14 and am willing to learn more about caring for animals of all ages and varying needs. I also helped some neighbors with some (very) basic dog training to help them become more confident in their journey in raising their new family members. Additionally, I like to maintain communication with owners (especially in the beginning for repeat clients) by asking questions relating to care, boundaries set, and of course sending lots of pictures! My current availability is Mondays-Thursdays any time after 10am, however I am very flexible and can adjust if needed. I am only available for day visits as I have to care for my own cats as well. I have two cats myself who I've had for about 12 years. My cats mean everything to me and I'm constantly observing their behaviors to ensure they are happy and healthy. I do set boundaries in my home for my own cats (not that they follow them anyways lol) such as not hanging out in the kitchen, making sure they're separated for meal times, no going into certain rooms, etc., so I will respect boundaries clients have set in their homes as well. As stated in my bio, I am very communicative and like to maintain regular contact with owners to give them peace of mind.
