“Angela is communicative, kind and friendly. I’ve never used Rover before and I am so happy I did. My dog Sammy is high energy and a bit needy so I was nervous. But it worked out great and I was so glad to see everyday that Sammy was in great hands and having fun. A++++ THANK YOU”
“steven is ALWAYS saving my butt when I need a last-minute sitter (which happens more often than I’d like). he’s super responsive and accommodating, always sends picture and video updates. literally the best!”
“Nia did an excellent job! She’s attentive to my fur-babies and communicates often. Her house is clean and she has a large backyard. I will definitely book again!”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“Our dog had a great time at Queeny’s house. She periodically sent us pictures and responded promptly. Our dog enjoyed playing in her fenced in yard. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Cody was so great with our golden retriever, Snoop! His dog seemed to get along well with Snoop and it was great to know he was in a good environment being well taken care of!”
“Love Evelyn! Book her every time we need a sitter! Amazing service, so kind, and our dog loves spending time with her! Sends lots of pictures during overnight stays, always stays in touch and in contact. Best in St. Clair Shores!”
“Whitley is the absolute best! Gave our dog so much love, movement, and fun! Marshall loved playing with her dog too. She was super accommodating when our flight was delayed too.”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“If you have a small dog, Beverly is unreal. My frenchie loves going to her home. She is given so much love, care and attention the entire time she is there. She has her own bed and rest area during the day with lots of toys. She never goes in a crate or cage, and plays all day long. At night Beverly lets my cookie sleep in the bed. If you are reading this go no further, Beverly provides unbelievable care. I would never consider an overnight kennel and once you try Beverly to babysit you wont either. Thank you Beverly for caring for my baby.”
“Emily, Jason & Larry were excellent hosts!! Upon my request for a sitter, they suggested a meet & greet between our dogs. They were welcoming and caring about insuring the dogs were compatible. We agreed on letting Nanook stay. They were very communicative about what our dog was up to, how he was getting along with Larry and they sent photos too. After the stay we were surprised to have received a thank you note and a personalized treat in our bag. That was such a sweet touch! We would definitely book with Emily & Jason again! Nanook enjoyed his stay with them and Larry!”
“Tracey is amazing. I was worried leaving my fur babies with a new sitter. I would recommend Tracey to all my friends. Both Samson & Diva seemed so happy and well cared for while we we’re away. Tracey kept me up dated with daily reports and pictures which made me feel very happy and relaxed that we picked her to watch them. She captured the the best pictures of the dogs it was amazing. I can’t say enough good things about her. I think she’s wonderful”
“Jax had a great time with Natalia. He loved playing with her dog and my daughter loved that she sent pictures during his stay. Would definitely recommend. I was nervous as this was our first time leaving him with someone but would not hesitate to do it again with Natalia. Thanks for taking such great care of Jax”
“Just simply amazing. Very patient and kind and many many updates throughout their stay which keeps your mind at ease. They took two of my elderly dogs who are sometimes a bit extra and they treated them like their own. Very professional. Also their house is truly a dogs paradise. You won’t be disappointed with the care your furbabies will receive. Most definitely will be a repeat customer.”
“Jess was great! I was really worried about having a sitter for my two dogs but she took care of them like they were princesses! Very nice, caring and kind. She even put up with me acting like I was taking my kids to their first day of kindergarten crying like a baby. Thank you Jess and I look forward to working with you again.”

“Cheryl is AWESOME! She was wonderful with our senior cat including being very accommodating to his temperamental ways and also administering medication. Cheryl went above and beyond in every aspect and will be my first contact next time we go out of town.”
“Tara was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, communicative, and so flexible when my return plans changed—I really appreciated how accommodating she was. Rosie clearly bonded with her right away and loved the walks, attention, and care Tara gave her. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Rosie was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Tara again—she’ll definitely be one of the first people I reach out to for future care!”
“Elizabeth was great! We needed a sitter for my cat Yuki last minute and Elizabeth was able to respond to us the day before we had to leave. Ever since my cat has been on heart medication (6 months) I have been scared and reluctant to go out for long term trips. I haven't had anyone take care of Yuki with her meds asides me and my boyfriend and I'm glad I've finally reached out! Elizabeth is very knowledgeable and compassionate about what she does. She was able to care and give my cat Yuki meds fine! I definitely recommend her and we'll be reaching out to her again when we need someone to take care of Yuki!”
“Katherine was great! She checked on our cats when we were out of town and was available for our last minute emergency trip. Our cats were very well cared for. She made sure they always had fresh water and a clean litter and even swept the extra litter messes they made. 10/10 recommend”
About: Since I was in my teens I have lived a life with pets - and it has been such a rewarding journey so far! I have had cats in my house as part of my family every year of my life since I was 14. I currently have a multi-cat household, and do TNR in my neighborhood where I can to help the outdoor stray cats. I have also rehomed multiple stray cats with the help of local rescues, in order to help as many possible have long happy kitty lives. I have experience with cats of all ages, from bottle feeding kittens to 18 year old seniors, and am comfortable giving any medications as well. I know my way around all kinds of personalities and ages, whether it be those that want to play or those that need some extra special attention. I have also been working with the same vet for 20+ years that can attest to my care and love for animals. I will treat every pet like my own - patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Being around animals - that's my happy place.
“Jj is such a fantastic catsitter! She is incredibly caring and thorough, making sure both you and your pets feel comfortable and well taken care of. She's able to navigate any difficult situations that may arise and will always treat your pets as if they were her own. I always feel at ease knowing Jj is caring for my furry crew while I'm away. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m Megan — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet care provider based in beautiful East English Village. I live with my two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other calm, respectful pups. I provide a personalized, low-volume boarding experience from my home, where your dog becomes part of our little pack. My services are designed with your pet’s comfort and safety in mind. I only board one guest dog at a time, ensuring constant supervision, individual attention, and a peaceful, low-stress environment. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, a walk while you’re at work, or overnight care, I treat every animal like one of my own — with affection, patience, and professional care. I provide updates with every visit, and I’m happy to accommodate custom routines, feeding schedules, and medication administration when needed. Let’s schedule a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great match! Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life — I structure my routine around it. With two dogs of my own, I’m already up early for walks, feeding, and snuggles. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit my boarding and walking services to just a few clients at a time, I’m able to give each pet my full focus without being overbooked or rushed. Whether I’m doing a drop-in visit, hosting a pup overnight, or stopping by for a midday walk, I plan my calendar so your pet gets reliable, unrushed, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities — whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in yours. BOARDING AT MY HOME: When boarding in my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment by only accepting one guest dog at a time. This allows me to give each pet plenty of individual attention and supervision throughout the day. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to having guests and do best with other well-mannered pups. I take time to carefully introduce everyone, and I require a meet-and-greet prior to first-time bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. My home is pet-safe, clean, and set up with cozy resting areas, a large and securely fenced outdoor space, and plenty of enrichment opportunities like walks, playtime, and snuggles. I also follow the pet’s routine as closely as possible to make their stay feel familiar and reassuring. FOR DROP INS I aim to maintain your pet’s routine in their own environment, minimizing disruption and providing consistent care. I refresh water, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, and always leave your home secure and tidy. I also provide visit updates with photos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Building trust through consistent, compassionate care is what I do best. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them, they’ll be treated like family.
“Danielle took excellent care of our cat while we were gone for a few days. She’s very responsive, a great communicator and detail oriented. Her report cards gave us peace of mind knowing our cat was well taken care of while we were away. Would highly recommend Danielle and hope to use her cat sitting services again!”
“Khelsi is truly the best. I was extremely nervous leaving my little man with someone new. My previous sitter, who was not Rover-related, was not the best fit. Khelsi came to the rescue. She's extremely professional, attentive, and caring. I travel for work and am over the moon to have found her. 10/5 stars.”
“My very shy cats warmed up to Chetoya very quickly! She was consistent, thorough and thoughtful in her care. I appreciated her daily photos and check-ins with my two floofs. She always responded immediately if I had questions. Thank you, Chetoya!??”
“Happy repeat customer here. Alicyn looked after our two cats and our house with the utmost care and attention. Because one of out cats requires frequent medication it’s hard for us to take vacations. Being able to count on Alicyn’s reliable help allows us to travel with peace of mind.”
“Shayla was wonderful! She kept in contact with me the whole time she had my cat with pictures and updates. She was flexible and accommodating and I plan to use her again anytime I need a pet sitter.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our cats while we were on vacation! All the pics were great! I know they were much more relaxed and happy with you checking in. We really can’t thank you enough! We will be booking you again next time we vacation!”

They were responsive, reliable, and clearly have a natural way with animals. Marvin was happy and relaxed when we picked him up and excited to return for his second stay, which says a lot.

“Karen was a great help with Luna when I unexpectedly had to leave the dog home alone for a VERY long day. She came over to give her cuddle and pee breaks and a trip to Barkside, Luna’s home away from home. 💕 Even went the extra mile to clean up a little dog mess. Thanks!!!!!”

Our pup came home happy and tired from all the fun. We will definitely be coming back!”
About: (New Account) Hi there I’m Julianna and I have 20+ years of animal care experience under my belt! I grew up in a unique situation with over 15+ animals in my house at a given time as my mother was an animal fosterer and relocator. This allowed me to amass a lifelong experience of taking care of animals of all different sizes, temperaments, and health conditions. I have worked with a wide range of animals including exotic pets, farm animals, and rescues. I have a deep understanding in animal behavior which allows me to carefully tailor your furry babies individual needs. I am skilled in daily feedings(live too), light grooming, administering medications all while creating an environment that feels safe and healthy. Life can get busy. Understandably you wanted to provide immediate care for your beloved pet but your schedule might not allow for immediate flexibility. That’s why I also have extended transportation skills. I can assist with transportation to and from your veterinary clinic, groomers, or airport. I work from home so I am able to be extremely accommodating to your pets needs. I have plenty of time for long walks and belly rubs. I am also able to assist in veterinary visit if your schedule doesn’t allow. I tailor each routine to your pet and am more than happy to accommodate any special request. I live in a walk up apartment and am able to carry up/down anyone who needs assistance. I have gated dog coral as well fenced in backyard.

“Moxie and I just love Allie! She’s great at communication and is super helpful whenever I need her. She goes above and beyond even bringing in my packages from the porch. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker.”
About: Since I was in my teens I have lived a life with pets - both dogs and cats, and it has been such a rewarding journey so far! I have had two rescue dogs, a collie mix and a beagle, and they had my whole heart. I currently have a multi-cat household, and do TNR in my neighborhood where I can to help the outdoor stray cats. I have also rehomed multiple cats with the help of local rescue groups to ensure a long happy kitty life. Currently, I spend a great deal of time with my best buddy Rocco, an 8 year old black lab. I have experience with small dogs, medium sized dogs and large dogs and honestly enjoy them all the same! I also have experience with cats of all ages, from bottle feeding kittens to 18 year old seniors, and am comfortable giving any medications to dogs or cats as well. I know my way around all kinds of personalities and ages, whether it be those that want to play or those that need a slow, gentle walk and some extra attention. I have also been working with the same vet for 20+ years that can attest to my care and love for animals. I will treat every pet like my own - patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Being around animals - that's my happy place. My hours at work have changed which allows me to be available Monday-Thursday 11am-3pm. I'm available for walks, drops ins for potty breaks while you're at work, or to check on your kitties if you'll be gone longer than you'd like to be. Lots of time for playing with your furry family members! I would be happy to come to your home and treat it and your pets with respect and care. My personal cats are all fixed and up to date on shots, however I took in a stray girl last winter who is very scared of everything. I think it's best to let her rule the house and come to visit yours at your homes where they are most comfortable.
“Jessica is fabulous! I’m kind of a “crazy dog mom” but knowing my dog, Foss, is in Jessica’s care puts me at ease during the day. She sends me lots of pictures on her visits and, most importantly, I can tell she truly loves Foss and all animals and Foss loves/adores her just as much. Thank you, Jessica!”
About: I've been around dogs most of my life, while taking care of 3 of my own. I'm currently training my dog to build a stronger bond. I'm currently working full time and training my dog daily. I have availability on weekends and weekday evenings as needed. Let me know what you're looking for. I will work on building trust with your fur baby, allowing them time to adjust to a new person in their space. I need to know their likes, dislikes, and routine if they have one.
“Megan helped out giving our big baby his walks this week. She was great and Bennie (our 100 lb rottie) quicklyfell in love. He was looking out the window longingly for her by day 2. Thank you, Megan!”
About: Hi! I’m Paris — a substitute teacher, lifelong pet lover, and proud cat mom of two playful kittens, Lilith & Zephyr 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for as if they’re my own. Whether it’s a dog who loves long walks, a cat who just wants cuddles, or a nervous pet who needs extra patience, I tailor care to each animal’s personality and comfort level. My clients describe me as attentive, communicative, and trustworthy — I provide photo updates, detailed messages, and genuinely enjoy spending time with every pet I meet. You’ll never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing while you’re away! 💼 My Schedule As a substitute teacher, I create my own schedule — which means I can adjust my availability for pet care. I typically work 4–8 hour school shifts with breaks that allow me to check in, walk, or drop in on pets during the day. Need round-the-clock or overnight care? I can absolutely provide that — I just ask for notice in advance, as 24-hour care may require adjusted pricing 💰 Rates & Expectations Rover’s listed prices reflect my base rates for standard care. Rates may adjust slightly depending on: • The number of pets • Travel distance • After-hours or weekend bookings • Medication or special-needs care • Holiday or extended-stay requests All rates are before Rover’s 20% platform fee. My goal is to ensure top-tier, stress-free care that’s priced fairly for both of us. 💬 Why Choose Me I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pets. My goal is to create peace of mind while making sure your pets are loved, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Each booking is personalized — whether that means an extra bedtime cuddle, a longer evening walk, or slow introductions for shy pets. ❤️ Let’s Connect If you’re looking for reliable, flexible, and genuine care, I’d love to chat! Send me a message with your pet’s routine, quirks, or favorite toys — I’m happy to customize care around their needs. I work as a substitute teacher and I make my own schedule. As long as I have at least 2-3 days before a booking I can switch things around to be with your pet. I typically work 4-8 hours and have small breaks where I can leave the school and check in with pets twice a day while I am working. If they need round the clock care, I can make that happen but as it interferes with my day job that would require further conversation as far as pricing. I play with animals, I’ll walk them, bathe them, give them medication if needed. I treat every pet I’m lucky enough to have placed in my care as my own. Anything you need or want for me to do for your four legged family member I would be more than happy to accommodate!

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover currently living with my two dogs, Chip and Theo. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments through house visits and dog walking, so your pet is in good hands. I always send updates and make it a priority to make sure every pet feels as comfortable as my own. I work in tech so I'm home frequently, meaning your pet won't be left alone for long. I live in a house with a good sized backyard, perfect for dogs to roam, play, and get fresh air When hosting pets in my home, I make sure they have plenty of space and feel comfortable. I live in a house with a closed off backyard, so there is always a safe space to play and get fresh air, plus open space nearby in a quiet, safe neighborhood for walks. They are never cooped up and I am home frequently so they get consistent attention throughout the day. When doing house visits or drop ins, I stick to the pet's routine as much as possible. I handle feeding, walks, litter, and make sure they have everything they need. I always keep the owner updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is in good hands.

“Nia was wonderful! She took care of my Zayle on short notice. Zayle still acts like a puppy and Nia was capable and comfortable with that type of energy and behavior. Nia was nice, professional and right on time. 10/10 the best the app has to offer! I’ll be booking with Nia again soon :)”
About: Why Pet Parents Choose Me 🐾Trusted by repeat local clients - References available. 🐾Known for being reliable, caring, and communicative. 🐾Certificate in Cat and Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) 🐾5 years of experience as a Veterinary Assistant 🐾Fostering experience, including raising bottle-fed kittens and fostering a DACC rescue dog who was once on death row - who now has the happiest forever home! Hi, I’m Monica DeSpain— a lifelong animal lover, experienced pet sitter, and proud pet mom to one sweet senior dog and three quirky cats. I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years, and I truly love what I do. My background includes 5 years working at two veterinary hospitals as a veterinary assistant, volunteering at the animal shelter, and fostering pets in my home. These experiences gave me a strong foundation in animal care long before I officially started offering pet sitting. Since August 2024, I’ve been providing trusted, compassionate pet sitting services to families in the Grosse Pointe area. I also currently run a small online business from home, which gives me the flexibility to offer weekday and weekend visits, dog walking, and personalized drop-in care. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets — not just for feeding and potty breaks, but for love, attention, and consistency. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level — and I meet them where they’re at. Whether it’s energetic play, gentle senior care, medication routines, or just being a calm presence, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. My schedule is flexible and I do my best to accommodate yours. Let’s work together to plan for your pets needs. I should be able to accommodate most schedules. I will care for your pet with the same loving, caring and kindness that I have for my own pets. Most animals find me easy to be comfortable around.

“Sam took our dog, Jax, out for walks while we were out of town for a week. She is attentive and obviously an animal-lover. We got pictures and videos everyday while we were gone which is really nice when you're missing your pets. Personally, Sam is friendly and quick to respond if you have any questions. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: Hi! My name is April! I am looking to fulfill my days with an exciting experience! I am able to provide the best care for your furbaby while you are not available. I loved and spoiled my Shih Tzu Joy for 13 wonderful years. I am now a mom to my 3 1/2 year old Shih Tzu, Winter. I have a flexible schedule. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own. I assure you that once your dog stays with me they will never want to leave. I will take pictures to keep you in touch with your furbaby throughout the stay. If your dog prefers long walks, I am more than happy to provide. If your dog enjoys movie watching, we can enjoy that together as well. I make chicken broth ice cubes for helping to beat the summer heat. I provide relaxing and soothing bedtime music. I only board a minimum of 2 dogs at a time, so your pooch will get more than enough TLC. I became interested in Rover because I understand how it feels to leave my dog with someone that we're not familiar. I am reliable, accessible and I have transportation. Additional information: 1. Promptly responds to booking request 2. Rover 101 Pet Care Badge 3. Background check completed 4. Clean home 5. Reliable 6. Punctual 7. Transparent 8.

“Angela is communicative, kind and friendly. I’ve never used Rover before and I am so happy I did. My dog Sammy is high energy and a bit needy so I was nervous. But it worked out great and I was so glad to see everyday that Sammy was in great hands and having fun. A++++ THANK YOU”

“Emily, Jason & Larry were excellent hosts!! Upon my request for a sitter, they suggested a meet & greet between our dogs. They were welcoming and caring about insuring the dogs were compatible. We agreed on letting Nanook stay. They were very communicative about what our dog was up to, how he was getting along with Larry and they sent photos too. After the stay we were surprised to have received a thank you note and a personalized treat in our bag. That was such a sweet touch! We would definitely book with Emily & Jason again! Nanook enjoyed his stay with them and Larry!”
“Tracey is amazing. I was worried leaving my fur babies with a new sitter. I would recommend Tracey to all my friends. Both Samson & Diva seemed so happy and well cared for while we we’re away. Tracey kept me up dated with daily reports and pictures which made me feel very happy and relaxed that we picked her to watch them. She captured the the best pictures of the dogs it was amazing. I can’t say enough good things about her. I think she’s wonderful”
“Jax had a great time with Natalia. He loved playing with her dog and my daughter loved that she sent pictures during his stay. Would definitely recommend. I was nervous as this was our first time leaving him with someone but would not hesitate to do it again with Natalia. Thanks for taking such great care of Jax”
“Just simply amazing. Very patient and kind and many many updates throughout their stay which keeps your mind at ease. They took two of my elderly dogs who are sometimes a bit extra and they treated them like their own. Very professional. Also their house is truly a dogs paradise. You won’t be disappointed with the care your furbabies will receive. Most definitely will be a repeat customer.”
“Jess was great! I was really worried about having a sitter for my two dogs but she took care of them like they were princesses! Very nice, caring and kind. She even put up with me acting like I was taking my kids to their first day of kindergarten crying like a baby. Thank you Jess and I look forward to working with you again.”

“Rachael took on a short notice booking for me and was communicative through my pup’s stay with her. She sent pictures as well. We were happy with our dogs care and would use her services again.”
“Jessica was simply amazing. We’ve never left our girls for any amount of time before and they were there for a week. Jessica was super patient and understanding with our one dog who needed some extra time to get comfortable around other dogs and cats. We were sent daily pictures and updates and videos throughout the week. Initially we were nervous being away from them for so long but we knew they were in good hands. The updates reassured us that they were having an amazing time and enjoyed their vacation at Jessica’s house. I 100% recommend Jessica to watch your dogs, and will be a return customer next time we need her services! Thank you again 🥰”
