“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
“Meredith was the best pet sitter I could have asked for. She was so sweet with my dogs and kept me updated with lots of videos and photos. You can tell how much she loves animals and it felt like she treated my pups as her own. Will absolutely be using her in the future!!”
“Nani had a longer stay with Cody and I had no concerns! He did a great job following additional instructions due to the longer stay and kept me updated throughout my trip. I feel confident in Cody and his ability to intervene and mediate between dogs in case any overexcitement or aggression happens. I feel comfortable leaving Nani with him knowing she’s in good hands!”
“SYDNEY IS THE BEST! This was the first time our dog, Primo, stayed with someone who wasn’t already familiar with him, so naturally, we were a little nervous about leaving him while we were away on vacation. From the very beginning, Sydney completely put our minds at ease. She took the time to address every concern we had, answered all of our questions, and reassured us that Primo would be safe, comfortable, and very well taken care of. Sydney was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and professional throughout Primo’s entire stay. What we appreciated most was her communication. Every morning and evening, she sent us pictures along with updates and notes about how Primo was doing. Being able to see him happy and comfortable allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. It was clear that Sydney treated Primo with genuine care and attention, and that means everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience leaving him with someone new. Sydney has definitely earned our trust, and we will absolutely be using her services again in the future. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, communicative, and trustworthy to care for your pet, we highly recommend Sydney. Thank you, Sydney!”
“We are new to the area and finding a good dog sitter is always a bit stressful. Kadi put me and my dog, Phoebe, at ease almost immediately upon meeting her. She is friendly, welcoming, and truly cares! Kadi asked important questions about my dog to ensure the boarding was tailored to Phoebe's needs. Throughout her stay, we received updates and pictures that gave us peace of mind that Phoebe was not an after thought, but part of the family!”
“Maritza and Daniel are amazing! Bowi stayed with them for 6 days They made sure we felt comfortable. Maritza is an excellent communicator. She sent me lots of pictures and updates everyday. She made me feel confident that Bowi is safe and Loved. I can't recommend her enough! We will leave our precious Bowi with her again 100%. Thank you Maritza and Daniel again for everything.”
“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!”
“Enaes did a fantastic job handling my very nervous pooch and was very flexible when I was stuck out of town due to the weather. She provided updates and I felt comfortable having Pheo in her care.”
“Sogol just watched our senior dog for six nights while we were on vacation. She was extremely helpful from the moment we reached out and kept us informed with messages and photos throughout the stay. She is very personable and warm and has a clear love for animals. We will absolutely use her again in the future!”
“This would be like our 3rd time using Rahied! He was absolutely great as usual! He went above and beyond for Cobra! I think Cobra misses him and especially his son already! 😆😁”
“Eriann did such a nice job watching Ruby! She took her dog George and Ruby to the dog park and send us photos and a video of Ruby playing and having a great time! Ruby can't wait for the next time she gets to go and hang out with Eriann and George! Thanks Eriann for doing such a great job and for just being you!”

“Jackie was awesome. She was super prompt, accommodating with our schedule, and went the extra mile to make sure that our cats got the care they needed. Thanks so much, Jackie!”
“Jay was very easy to schedule with. He genuinely listened to my insane list of things for my cat, spent time playing with him, and made sure any accidents were cleaned up. As someone who has a cat with medical issues, I truly felt like my worries were attended to. I'm sure Blanket had a good time too!”

“Migo appreciates you being there for him while he was scared in the storm, all the goodies you give him and the quality playtime. Thanks again for taking great care of him while we had to go out of town!”
“Suzanne did a wonderful job with our fur babies. Our girl cat can be cranky or a sweetheart and Suzanne knew how to bring the sweetheart out of her. She sent delightful photos of Peanut rubbing all up and down her leg in greeting and running around the house excitedly playing or having zoomies. We knew our cat was in good hands with her from the very beginning - just a vibe - but she proved to be responsible, attentive, and definitely went the extra mile to make sure we knew Peanut was being loved, food and maintenance was being taken care of, and that our other pets were also safe.”
“Thank you so much Rhea! I travel for work and she took great care of my kitty; he got to go outside on his leash, got a treat, and she even brought my packages inside for me. Can’t wait to book her again”
About: I have grown up loving and caring for dogs of my own as well as others. I have always been the person people always call when they have some kind of animal emergency.

“Greatly appreciated Kristen's 1) willingness to accommodate us when we needed daycare at the last minute, 2) her patience with and fondness for our super energetic 4-month old puppy, and 3) the pictures that gave us a glimpse of our boy's first time with the other dogs at her home. Each of these things made us feel more at ease. We will definitely request Kristen G. again.”
“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:)”
“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!”

“I was so worried about finding a sitter when I moved back to Michigan but Lavina has been amazing! Bentley loves going there and she makes sure to communicate throughout the day! Bentley goes weekly and it has been a pleasure sending him there!”
About: My Husband and I welcomed my dog 7 years back in the family when we had no plan to have a pet but we just had to bring her home. I have trained her all by myself and received many compliments on how well-behaved my pet is. I have taken care of my friend's fur friends multiple times. Zusa gets along with pretty much everyone with a condition of them remembering who the queen is in the house lol there’s 40% chance of her playing with your pet but she’ll mostly mind her own business which noting everyone who stopped by- by the bay window that’s 10ft long. Your fur baby will be allowed there too after 24hrs of stay😊 we enjoy pets more than humans😜 which is why your pets likely to be cuddled here not just for the show. They’ll be treated as a cousin of Zusa visiting and nothing less than that. I work from home, so I have plenty of time to entertain your fur friend! I'm available on weekdays anytime after 10 am and accommodate them over weekends with some heads up. I have a fenced yard, lots of toys, and a Shitzu to give your pet company. I do have pretty much everything but a crate, so if you believe your pet will be more comfortable with that, then please bring it with you.
“Our first experience with Theresia was beyond expectations. We requested a meet and greet because we were unsure of a stranger watching our dogs. Theresia was extremely accommodating and we will definitely use her again!”
“Mariana and her husband have hosted our dog Shama multiple times now and they are always our first choice because we know Shama is always happy to see them and stay with them. Very flexible and communicate very nicely with us. We highly recommend them.”
“Angela and her rescue pack are great! She’s so kind, comforting, and understanding with our shy anxious rescue girl. Her boys Ernie and Jerry are a nice bonus to help socialize Gretchen with other dogs. I also appreciate Angela’s open honest and frequent communication.”
“Kadi was fantastic! So warm and reassuring to talk with, as well as super sweet and patient with our pup. He is a bit weary of men, and unfortunately wasn’t able to relax around Kadi’s husband. She let me know that she wanted to make sure Tito was as comfortable as possible. Kadi went of her way to reach out to her pet sitter, a fellow rover member (without a male in the house ☺️), to see if she would be available and open to taking Tito on for a weekend. She even made sure there was availability for a meet and greet before hand. Kadi went above and beyond and showed us she really cares about the well being of the pets in her care. Thanks a million Kadi!”

About: I have always been the first to offer to cat or dog sit for my friends. My own cat needs daily oral medication, so I understand the importance of timely medication.

“Allie is so kind and loves my baby girl. She is extremely flexible and helps out extra whenever needed. She goes above and beyond even refilling the water bowl when it’s empty.”
“Hi highly recommend Greg! I was fortunate enough to not only book him last minute so my pup could get in a walk, but also able to do so on New Years Eve. My pup was obviously quite fond of him because he didn't want to stop playing with Greg once he brought him back home from the walk, and he continued to bring over one toy after the next to show him. I look forward to booking him again in the near future.”
“Katie was super friendly and great with the pups, and was so patient even when my puppy gave her a hard time. She sends photos while she’s there and is great with communicating with you. She rocks!”
“Valerie has been a fantastic dog walker for my pug, Steve. Communication has been super easy, she always leaves great notes (feedback and pictures) and brings lots of positive energy. Steve has been a very happy boy to have another friend to play with. Very highly recommended!”
About: I’ve always grown up with multiple dogs at a time. My parents currently love a 5 year old German shepherd, an 8 year old English shepherd, and an 8 year old Staffordshire terrier. I myself now love a 2 year old Irish setter doodle that I have well trained with my boyfriend, and a 3 year old orange tabby kitten! I work in the medical sales industry, so no two days are the same. I usually don’t have a full day however, so if I’m scheduled with your pet, they have my full attention! I currently love a 2 year old male Irish doodle puppy and a 3 year old female orange tabby kitten. They are very friendly with each other and everyone who visits. We think it's important to have rules and structure so they are both trained and well behaved but thoroughly loved and cared for. l am comfortable with putting dogs in crates, letting them out, feeding, and administering medication if necessary; really whatever attending to their normal schedule.

I don't mind cleaning, I love super active animals, and I'm confident and reliable in caretaking. I work independently as an artist and curator, so I make my own schedule, so I always have plenty of time for your fur baby.

“I'm very happy with Annie and Dustin. I've been coordinating with them from out of state to walk my little guy (Dexter) while he stays with my dad for the month. I really appreciate how easy they are to communicate with, the photos, and their detailed account of of how Dexter is doing. It makes me feel better about being far away. They are definitely pros. Highly recommend.”

“Brittnie was great. She communicates all the time and sent plenty of pictures with the updates. I could not have been happier with her service and I highly recommend her.”
“Megan was nothing short of AMAZING. I have had the opportunity to use many wonderful sitters on Rover over the years but Megan is definitely an 11/10. I could write a novel as to how wonderful our experience was, but I will stick to the highlights; She communicates extremely well, and it is beyond obvious that she loves dogs from the moment you step into her lovely home and you meet her adorable and well trained Hamilton (who my Greyson just adored). She will send you updates throughout your pups stay to not only let you know your pup is in the best hands, but she will also send you the most adorable photos along with those updates to assure you as well. Megan is accommodating, kind, and I can not recommend her highly enough. If you are fortunate enough to book her - DO IT!!”

She was constantly sending multiple updates throughout the day and showed our dog so much love and attention. We are truly grateful for Rachel and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Angela was great! She made Dobby feel comfortable, and kept me in the loop about how he was doing while I was away. Now he's home and crashed out from all the fun.”
“Theresa and Adrian were wonderful with my dog TJ! Their home is truly perfect for dogs and they were super communicative throughout our stay. Will be booking with them in the future! :)”
“Gillian was so great with Oliver. She was easy to communicate with and so welcoming. I felt comfortable leaving Oliver with her for the first time. Gillian provided updates and pictures throughout his stay. We look forward to booking with her again! 🐾”
