“Miryam is truly an angel with my babies. From our very first meet and greet, I instantly had a good feeling about her especially when my girl cat immediately gravitated toward her. She has an amazing ability to care for all three of my cats, balancing their different personalities. She's playful and engaging while also knowing when to give them their space. As we all know, cats can be particular, but Miryam has always been gentle, attentive, patient, and welcoming with my babies ever since our very first meeting. I will always have complete peace of mind knowing my babies are in her care, and I couldn't recommend her more highly ◡̈”

“Cheyenne went above and beyond looking after my cats! She dedicated extra time to play with them and kept me updated while I was away. She promptly responded to my messages and I appreciate her for squeezing me in last minute! Thank you so much for all you do Cheyenne!!!”


“Caitie is super!! So kind and communicative. My cat is so happy and calm when I arrive home. I know she is so well tended to and loved on in Caitie’s care. I love receiving the photos Caitie sends. It is just complete peace of mind to know my little rescue tortie is such good hands. Thank you so much!!!”


“Chelsea was so fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and actually my first time getting someone to watch my cat at all like this and it could not have gone better. I will definitely use Chelsea again any time she's available. Perfect.”

“Tara's the best! She visited my high-energy cat while I was away for a long weekend, giving him much-needed playtime and providing excellent updates along the way.”

“Thank you for taking such great care of our cats and home. We appreciate the directions being adhered to and respected as well as updates and pics of them while we were gone.”


“Izzywas great with Alina! I could tell that she cared and that Alina loved hanging out with her. Would definitely recommend her to take care of anyone's fur babies.”


“Absolutely incredible cat sitter!! Went so far above and beyond to provide updates, kept my house clean from the typical cat hair, played with cats a ton and even brought them some new toys 🥰🥰. Jeannette made my vacation stress free and i highly recommend!!”

“Randi was very patient with our cat and sent comprehensive updates about his food/water/litter status, which we appreciated since he has some special needs.”


“Sophie dropped in on my kitties every day I was gone and sent photos of them, she also spent time sitting with them and giving them pets. I could go on my trip and have peace of mind that my girls were taken care of ❤️”


“Evelyn took wonderful care of our 4 babies while we were away for a week. Our cats were loved on and this cat mom was so pleased to see the updates and pictures come through. I highly recommend Evelyn’s services and I know we’ll be a returning customer!”


“WOW! Lindsey was amazing. More than amazing. Everything I could hope for in a sitter. Within 2 days she had my super shy girl sitting on her lap. This took my husband at least a year and a half to get to that point. She sent pictures showing the same shy girl playing with a wand without the other two cats butting in. They all loved her and from what I could tell, each kitty had equal play and loving. I came home to clean litter boxes, fresh water, happy cats, and a vacuumed house! She genuinely cared about my babies. I almost want to take trips just to have Lindsey come over and love on my cats ❣️”


“chelsea provided the best care for my cat! she spent quality time playing with her and cuddling with her on the couch. she was great with sending pictures while we were gone.”


“Nicole stayed at our house with our cats for a week and did a great job following the instructions. My cats have quite the extension routine and needs and she took all the request in with no judgement. One of my cats requires oral medication every day and she took care of that as well. I was able to feel comfortable knowing that my cats were in great hands. She sent me little updates every day as well, communication was solid. When we got home, she left the house extremely clean for us, which was a nice bonus. Highly recommend!”

“Tara is a great cat sitter! She was very patient with and loving toward my standoffish cat, very prepared for everything required for catsitting, and willing to go above and beyond when I needed it while I was away. I would definitely recommend her as a catsitter and am looking forward to working with her again in the future!”

“Emily has been nothing but perfect to Behr. She always sends great pictures. Responds in a timely manner. Great with dogs! I would definitely recommend her!! Great prices too. Always respectful and polite.”

“Anthony was great. We did a meet and greet and when I dropped her off the day, he sent me lots of pictures to reassure me Tilly was content and safe. He took her for walks and spoiled her. I plan to use him again. 5 stars.”

“Dena and her family did a great job with Biscuit. She was happy and content when I picked her up. It is clear that they provided her with loving care. We will definitely be back.”

“Had a great 1st time visit with Karen. My dog Zoe has some anxiety but I noticed right away that she seemed comfortable in Karen's home. She spent the day with Karen. I got a photo and a nice update during the day . When I picked Zoe up she was happy to see me and was very content. In the past when I boarded her she came home and seemed very nervous for a while but staying with Karen for the day she seemed very much at ease. I am very happy to have found Karen and I feel comfortable trusting her with fur baby.”

“This was a last minute booking which turned from 2-3 hours to 6+ due to an emergency, but Pallavi went above and beyond at taking care of Mylo! Cannot be more appreciative and would 100% recommend! Thank you so much!”

“We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Even though we were her very first client, she treated our pup like absolute family from the second we walked in. She was warm, professional, and kept us updated throughout the day, which gave us complete peace of mind. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. Don't let her lack of reviews fool you, she is a natural at this and truly wonderful with pets. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Jessica was amazing with our new puppy! She was able to accommodate us on short notice, which we really appreciated. She walked him, fed him, played with him, and even introduced him to other little puppies so he could socialize. She greeted me warmly and treated both of us with such kindness. Our pup came home happy and tired from all the fun. We will definitely be coming back!”

“I couldn’t possibly be happier with my dog’s experience at Teresa’s home. From our meet and greet a few days ago to daycare today, Teresa has been nothing but kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming to my dog and my family. Her dogs were a great mix of playful and chill - my pup is worn out this evening, haha. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I thought about daycare for my new rescue dog. Many more playdates to come. 🙂 It’s so comforting knowing she was in excellent hands.”

“Cody has a way with dogs, and it’s clear ours enjoyed being with him and was well cared for while there. We booked a few days before the stay and he was extremely accommodating! We will use him again!”

“Rachel is amazing. She took great care of my Hobey who is a goldendoodle. I knew upon meeting her that she took this would be a great experience for Hobey. She provided videos throughout the day that showed Hobey playing with other dogs, doing tasks that would merit him a treat, and relaxing after some playtime in the backyard. It was nice to see the vids and to see him have a good time. I took him there 3 days in a row and each time he would get excited as we pulled up to her house which made me feel good. I could tell he had an active day when I picked him up cause we would get home and I would feed him and he would sleep for the rest of the night. I was only in Michigan for a week but I will be back to visit family and I will always use Rachel.”

“Bentley had a great time hanging out with Murphy and Meredith. We've just moved to the Ferndale area, and he misses his old neighbor friends. Happy he's made a friend with Murphy:)”

“Sara and her boyfriend did an amazing job hosting and taking off Thor! Sara sent videos and photos of Milo and Thor having fun! Her home was very pet friendly and safe with a fenced yard. Thor hopes to see Milo again! ?”

“We are so grateful for Jeff and Erin! We had a family emergency and last minute they were able to take her for the day for us. She loves playing with the doggies :)”

“Maritza did a great job communicating with me for Marlon’s first visit. I am super grateful and glad to know he’s being watched by a thoughtful and caring family.”

“Izzy is fantastic with our nervous dog. She’s done one-off dog walks as well as daytime walks when we’ve been on vacation for a week or more. Kind, responsible, caring, and communicative.”

About: I currently live with 3 dogs and 2 cats with plenty of time for more. I have fostered both kittens and puppies for over 10 years. I am retired and looking for furry friends. I have plenty of time on my hands to love and care for my own pets and yours…. I am willing to come to your home or welcome your pet to mine. My pets are very friendly. I have a spare room and a basement with crates, pet gates and a fenced in backyard.

“Jeanette is the best. She is so thoughtful in how she takes care of our little monster. Details like throwing ice in his bowl and making sure he is safely taken care of on a hot day mean so much to us. 🐶❤️”

About: I love all animals and grew up with dogs, both rescues, one big one small. Although I don’t have a pet of my own now, Rover gives me the chance to give care and spend time with the furry friends that give us unconditional love. I’m currently working freelance so I have the flexibility of making my own schedule, and time to spend giving attention to your pets and whatever needs they have. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own space. My first priority is to make your dog or cat feel comfortable with me.
“Miryam is such a great person, she’s wonderful with our high energy, sometimes sensitive doggo! She also takes amazing pics of your pup. Always happy with the time our dog gets to spend with her. Hire her!”

About: I have been caring for animals since elementary school. I watched cats and dogs for neighbors and friends of the family. As I got older, I started getting referrals for pets from around the community and cared for those animals too. The arch of my kindness and care is not limited to animals, as I also provide care for the elderly. I cared for both of my grandparents and my father until his passing. I currently provide care and other services to a 104 year-old young lady who is believed to be my community’s oldest living resident and yes, she still walks and does not use a wheelchair. I am self-employed and have a very flexible schedule. I can care for your pet any day of the week (unless I have another pet scheduled for that day) and at times convenient for most people. I am here to follow your instructions and schedule without deviation. Your fur baby will be feed exactly at the time(s) directed by you, same with any medication(s). For dogs, I will take them outside for walks and indoor/outdoor play as weather permits, and see that their water is always fresh with some treats and cuddles too. For cats, it is play and more play; plus fresh water and treats, then snuggling when we are done.

“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.”

“I had a regular walker cancel for a life interruption last minute on my midterm test day and Lukis was wonderful. It was as if they were Kronk’s caretaker for months. He was happy and I had no worries about him while I was testing. I would definitely go to them again for any caretaking needs in the future.”

“Hanan is AMAZING! She has taken our 5 year old German Shepherd Kudo on walks as well as watched her overnight in our home. She is dog-reactive, and it feels so good knowing we can trust Hanan to keep distance from other dogs on walks & keep up with the training we are doing, while keeping Kudo safe. We always feel comfortable knowing Hanan does a great job caring for her, giving her lots of love & play, and making sure she is safe. Hanan communicates quickly and sends great updates with photos - you really can tell she loves what she does. Thank you Hanan!!”

“January is fantastic with our two girls. They are very hyper and she was incredible and went above and beyond for them. They love her and we will absolutely reschedule with her again soon!”

“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: I've owned/fostered/rescued animals my whole life, and I'm an avid animal lover.

“Cindy is the best!! I couldn’t possibly say enough good things!! She is so gentle and caring towards my Molly. I feel so good in the knowledge that Molly is in the safe, loving hands. And Molly adores her!”

On the off chance you have any you need help with, I'd be honored. I love animals and I'm excited to meet yours! I have a very open schedule and I'm very flexible. The biggest thing I need to work around is medical appointments, but once I have you on schedule I can book them around your visit! Your pets safety is just as important as the safety of my own pet. I'll make sure any needs they have are met, especially for disabled pets!

About: Professional housesitter, LGBT+ND Friendly. My homebody routine means tons of time with your pet. I'm very tidy, and a good fit for clean nonsmoking homes. Over 200+ nights per year petsitting! Your place is my home, not just short visits. I love multiple pet households of 2, 3, 4 or more! I am patient with anxiety, special needs, medication, and puppies. I love written instructions, and take medication seriously. My day is typically yoga, meditation, movie nights with your pets, two hours WFH, and walks or yard time. I also offer daytime care in your home via the Housesitting tab (3 hours to 10 hours+) even if you don't need overnight. You can also book Drop Ins of 30 or 60 mins, or multiple hours. Pets that I know already can sometimes book care in my home. I only take one pet family at a time for my home daycare, quality care over quantity. I usually send you 2ish updates with photos per day. I'm mature, sober, nonsmoking; I don't vape or use drugs, not even caffeine. I have decades of experience caring for houses and pets. Note: All of December will be at Rover Holiday rates. After our initial visit, it is standard to do cold swaps vs hot swaps, for your out of town trip. I arrive after you leave, and depart before you return. This usually means smoother transitions for pets and humans. If you need a sit start time before 8am, or end time after 8pm, or drives over 15 minutes, there is an additional charge of $30 each, not included in your Rover estimate. You are very welcome to book drop ins or walks before your sit so we can all get to know each other! Just click Drop In on my profile and select your preferred time and day, and I'll message back same day. Your home is my home base, I bring my groceries/book/yoga mat/work things. Playtime, downtime, and sleepytime are spent with your pet. I WFH and love reading, cooking, meditation, movies. My commitments are important to me, and I care about your pets. I am responsible, a great communicator, and will always respond to your messages.

“Boarded my pup at Racheals for 4 days and she kept me posted every day about him. They’re very hospitable and my dog seemed extremely happy when I came to pick him up at the end of his stay. Can’t thank Rachael and her boyfriend enough for taking care of my puppy, I would recommend them a 100% of the time and would board my dog with them again.”

“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”

“Jess was very accommodating on a last minute trip I had planned. She was very flexible with my schedule and availability to meet. I was extremely nervous as this was my first time utilizing Rover, as I usually book with PetSmart but I wanted to make sure my senior dog was well taken care of as boarding can be stressful for older dogs. Once we had the meet and greet, my dogs immediately loved Jess. She made sure that their routine stayed as close to the same as at home to ensure their comfort, and sent pictures and updates daily (which I loved). Even when we picked our dogs up, they still wanted to play and love on her so I knew they had a blast. If you’re wary about booking with Jess, this review is for you, she was absolutely awesome.”

“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”

“Michelle is awesome! She made me feel very comfortable during our initial meet and greet, and my 7 month old Hound-mix was just smitten. ? Michelle kept in regular contact and sent pictures so I knew my pup was in good hands.”

“I was very nervous to board my 2 year old pit, Stella, for the first time, but George made sure it was an awesome, stress-free experience. Stella’s a very anxious pup and has a hard time warming up to strangers, but she warmed up to George quickly and I felt very confident in my dogs’ safety, security, and wellbeing. We will absolutely be boarding with George again!”

“There are not enough wonderful things to say about Leslie. First time leaving my senior babies behind was stressful... until I met Leslie that is. She was wonderful with my girls. I didn't worry about them at all I knew they were in the best care possible. If you want someone who will care for your babies like they are their own than book Leslie! I will be!”


“Thank you Angela! She took wonderful care of our dog, Budd. Helped manage his anxiety during thunderstorms, kept us up to date on how he was adjusting, and send sweet photos!”
