“Rachael is caring, communicative, and took care of my Tribbles really well. Tribbles needed some last minute medication and Rachael was kind enough to administer it in our absence. She sends pictures and videos so you know your baby is well taken care of. Considering we had her boarded for a week, and that too Christmas week, I am extremely grateful to Rachael and would highly recommend her services!”
“Steven was amazing with my dog Ace! He was professional, reliable, and kept me updated with photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Ace was happy and well cared for when I got back. Highly recommend—will definitely book again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Natalia and her whole family was absolutely wonderful to deal with! They took such great care of Monkey, and I would recommend her over and over again. She was my first time using Rover and I am so happy! I will definitely be booking with her again! I love that Monkey had a little friend to follow around and feel at home with too”
“Tracey is the GOAT. I went on vacation so my senior beagle stayed for two weeks this June and everything went so smooth. I would not trust my geriatric little guy with anyone else. Tracey kept me up to date with any issues and also sends the sweetest pics.”
“Best experienced ever. Nia was great. So was Phillip. Great folks. They took good care of Lilly. They were very engaged and sent us pics as well as video. There was plenty of room in the yard for our dog to play. I highly recommend them. We will call on them again soon.”
“Queeny took real good care of our friend Luka. She took him to walks and gave us updates everyday on how he's been doing. So we were not worried at all. I know he has good time with Queeny and her family. We can say now Luka really found another home for him when we are traveling.”
“Angela provided a great home away from home for our elderly dog. She let us know how Winnie was doing while we were gone. The absolute proof that Winnie felt comfortable was that when we arrived to pick her up, Winnie came to greet us excitedly, then ran back and gave Angela the same greeting.”
“Gus had a great stay in Detroit with Theresa and Adrian! They were super accommodating, sweet with Gus and very attentive and kept us informed all along. We would use them again in a flash but were only in Detroit for a wedding weekend. They are the best-we highly recommend!!”
“Excellent experience with Jessica. My dog, Mila, was with her for an extended time (10 days!) and she was as happy as can be when I picked her up. Jessica sent pictures and updates throughout the duration of the visit. Professional and friendly. We will be returning to Jessica for services in the future.”
“Cody (and Sersi) was amazing for our boys. Being a group of three Aussies made it that much better because everyone got along great and we got great pictures of our boys! Would absolutely bring our dogs to Cody again!”
“Whitley was amazing!! Otis is an active guy and there were no shortage of action packed adventures. Otis and Whitley's dog Ollie had a fun and became best buddies. Whitely shared updates 2 times daily and I had complete peace of mind! I highly recommend her! We will be back for sure!!”
“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.”
“My dog Marty loves staying with Erika! Erika is a great sitter and I always rebook with her. She was kind to accommodate in a short notice given. I highly recommend Erika! 👌”
“Beverly took wonderful care of my Frenchie. She was quick to make Cookie feel right at home. Sent a lot of pictures and videos. There is always some anxiety when having someone care for your pet, but I knew within an hour my Cookie was in the right place. I would recommend Beverly to anyone who needs pet care and sitting services. So much better than a kennel. Your dog will be loved and will gets lots and lots of attention and love all day and all night.”
“Kira's been our rover since we moved to Detroit, and our dog's hung out with her and her dog many times at this point. Our dog clearly loves staying over, which is rare for her, and it speaks to Kira's ability to care for animals and be responsible and present. Will continue to trust her with my dog for as long as she's willing!”
“This was our first time boarding our two dachshunds. I was nervous at first but Nancy allowed us to meet her & her dog Betty before booking. Her dog Betty is a gentle giant and was nice to my dogs. Nancy did a great job at providing updates and sending us pictures. We will definitely be booking with Nancy in the future. Thank you!”

“I had no worries leaving my cats in Jessica's care! She came over twice a day and took care of them while we were out of town. They both seemed very happy and comfortable with her (I got lots of pictures of her playing with them!) - even my cat who takes a bit to warm up to new people. Definitely recommend her!”
“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.”
“This was my first time using a pet sitter and I will definitely be calling Cheryl the next time I need someone to watch my cats. We hit it off and, maybe more importantly, one of my cats took to her right away, the other was less trusting but her behavior improved by the end of Cheryl’s visits.”
“Kristina is a great communicator and I can tell she really loves animals. I got lots of wonderful updates that I looked forward to while on my trip. I would book her again anytime!”
“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!”
“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!??”
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.
“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.”
“Monica is fantastic! She sent really great detailed updates with lots of photos. It was Rio's first time with a sitter and you could tell she just had so much fun with Monica. Monica made sure that all 3 of our cats got plenty of attention equally and found different ways of entertaining them with various toys and treat feeders. She followed all instructions and even brought in our packages. Thanks so much!”
About: I cannot remember a time that I have not had a little cat buddy in my home. Cats were my first emotional support animal growing up and as a therapist I understand and value them as beings that have helped me and my clients through some of the hardest times in life. I love learning about their individual personalities, temperaments, and needs and will work hard to do the same for your companions.
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.
“Amy and James took amazing care of Toulouse and were very flexible with some changes in our travel arrangements. They sent the cutest photo updates at least twice a day and went above & beyond to put our minds at ease. Toulouse had so much fun... he didn’t want to leave! We definitely will use them again ?”
“Khelsi was fantastic watching our Cat! We had no issues and felt reassured that she was watching her. She was super responsive, and sent many update pics. We had such a great experience and we would definitely have her watch Phoebe again, and recommend her services! Thank you Khelsi!”
“lauri helped us out recently with housesitting and watching our two cats - one of whom required medication twice daily and some other specifications throughout the day. lauri was great with caring for both him and his brother, giving them everything they needed and making sure that they were happy and healthy while we were away. she sent photos and detailed updates and it gave us such peace of mind knowing that she was looking after them. we came home to happy cats and a well taken care of house - i would highly recommend lauri and will be booking with her again!”
“Peyton provided drop in visits for my elderly Shar Pei for a 10 day vacation. She is priceless. Lots of communication, photos & videos. Yoda loved her. I am sure many times she spent more than the allotted time living on him. She understood & provided for the needs of a senior dog. I definitely recommend Peyton & will call on her again.”

“Tracey is AWESOME! She is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. She is very kind, welcoming and thorough. My pup has some neurological issues going on and I felt more than comfortable leaving my dog with her all day and had no doubt she would take the best care of her. In the photos and video updates she sent me I could tell my pup was having a great time with her. Will definitely be using her many times again in the future. I can’t thank you enough Tracey!!”
“Tara took great care of our dog Marvin—this was the second time they’ve watched him, and both experiences have been excellent. 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. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Tara again and highly recommend them as a sitter.”

“Jessica was amazing with our new puppy! She was able to accommodate us on short notice, which we really appreciated.

Our pup came home happy and tired from all the fun. We will definitely be coming back!”

About: Hi! I’m Destiny, a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet sitter. I’ve been a dog owner for over 15 years and have been providing boarding, house sitting, and pet care services since 2016. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I share my home with two friendly dogs: Theodore, my 15-year-old companion, and Chip, my playful 5-year-old pup. Both enjoy meeting and socializing with other dogs. My home features a fenced yard and a pet-friendly environment designed to keep dogs happy, active, and secure. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs, including administering medication and supporting senior, special-needs, and recovering pets. Whether boarding in my home or caring for pets in theirs, I focus on maintaining routines, following instructions carefully, and creating a safe, stress-free experience for both pets and owners. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Wilberforce University and my Master of Public Administration from the University of Kentucky. One of my long-term goals is to establish a nonprofit that supports surrendered animals and military families with pet-care resources. Motto: Providing safe, affordable, and compassionate pet care for dogs and their families. 🐾 I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and carefully structure my schedule around the pets in my care. Because my household is very pet-oriented and a family member works remotely, there is typically someone home throughout the day to provide supervision, companionship, and attention. This helps ensure pets receive consistent care, comfort, and interaction while staying with us. I provide a safe, welcoming, and pet-friendly environment. My home has a fenced yard and two friendly dogs of my own who enjoy meeting other pets. Because my household is very pet-oriented and my mom works remotely, there is almost always someone home to supervise and spend time with the animals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am respectful of routines, attentive to instructions, and focused on keeping pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment.

Overall, pet care fits into my daily routine because I feed, walk, and play with my own animals all day and make sure they are loved on and taken care of just as I would do the same for your own! They have tons of toys that are played with, I let them lay in the bed with me or chill on the couch. I feed them every morning and water them frequently. I walk them every 30mins-1 hour. I will also play with them outside etc. they cuddle and get plenty of belly rubs and scratches while I’m near. I am the type of person who loves seeing your pets and will think about them all the time even if I only watched them once! I love bringing them toys and treats! The phrase I have never met a stranger resonates with me in human and animal aspect! I love meeting new people and animals are always a plus! Pet care is always my top priority.

I want your fur babies to always be attended to and taken care of. I have several pets in my own home that are mine. They are kennel trained and leash trained. I don’t keep my dogs locked up nor would I do that to your pets. I treat your pets like my own. I will give them cuddles and kisses and send you tons of pictures.
About: As a mental health therapist, I understand the important role animals play in our emotional lives. Animals are more than just a thing we care for and deserve to be respected for their individual differences in personality, temperament, and needs. I have spent my lives work caring for humans and animals in this way and will work hard to listen and care for your animals in the individual ways they deserve. I currently own my own mental health practice and work from home doing virtual client visits. I have a flexible schedule that can accommodate your individual needs. I am able bodied and can travel to you for animal care. I require an in person meeting ahead of caregiving services to establish trust with both you and the animals and to ensure it is a good fit. If overnights are required, I will need access to Internet in order to work from the home.
“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: CCS Grad Student based West Village. Grew up in a Shitzu home, but I only get to see her on weekends. However, I've been taking care of small dogs and pet-sitting dogs and cats for fam/friends for the last 4 years. I'm a full-time grad student, so aside from evening or afternoon classes, I'm flexible. Morning and/or Evening walking + feeding schedules are no issue. I’m a morning person! I've cared for pets in my own home or their own, and my primary focus is always making sure they are comfortable. Usually, that means trying my best to follow their normal routines.

My experience administering medication I have experience administering medication to my own pets and others pets as well. I’m a stay at home mom, which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s). We love playing outdoors and our dogs are like family to us! I have a dog run (working on fencing our large yard) and three dogs of my own. We have room to crate train if needed, and keep kids and dogs separate should your pup not be kid friendly.
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.
About: I’ve cared for pets through friends, family, and neighbors, and I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pets. I’m attentive to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, and I’ll always treat your pets with patience, care, and respect. I’m currently seeking employment while continuing my work as a filmmaker, so my schedule is flexible. I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks on weekdays and weekends, with availability depending on the booking. I provide attentive and reliable care in your pet’s own home and neighborhood. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for during every visit.

“Lily has been so awesome with our dog, Kenai! He loves her and gets so excited for his walks with her twice a week. He is already doing better on his walks and seems to be learning a lot.”
“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.”

“Rachael is caring, communicative, and took care of my Tribbles really well. Tribbles needed some last minute medication and Rachael was kind enough to administer it in our absence. She sends pictures and videos so you know your baby is well taken care of. Considering we had her boarded for a week, and that too Christmas week, I am extremely grateful to Rachael and would highly recommend her services!”
“Steven was amazing with my dog Ace! He was professional, reliable, and kept me updated with photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Ace was happy and well cared for when I got back. Highly recommend—will definitely book again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Natalia and her whole family was absolutely wonderful to deal with! They took such great care of Monkey, and I would recommend her over and over again. She was my first time using Rover and I am so happy! I will definitely be booking with her again! I love that Monkey had a little friend to follow around and feel at home with too”
“Tracey is the GOAT. I went on vacation so my senior beagle stayed for two weeks this June and everything went so smooth. I would not trust my geriatric little guy with anyone else. Tracey kept me up to date with any issues and also sends the sweetest pics.”
“Best experienced ever. Nia was great. So was Phillip. Great folks. They took good care of Lilly. They were very engaged and sent us pics as well as video. There was plenty of room in the yard for our dog to play. I highly recommend them. We will call on them again soon.”
“Queeny took real good care of our friend Luka. She took him to walks and gave us updates everyday on how he's been doing. So we were not worried at all. I know he has good time with Queeny and her family. We can say now Luka really found another home for him when we are traveling.”
“Angela provided a great home away from home for our elderly dog. She let us know how Winnie was doing while we were gone. The absolute proof that Winnie felt comfortable was that when we arrived to pick her up, Winnie came to greet us excitedly, then ran back and gave Angela the same greeting.”
“Gus had a great stay in Detroit with Theresa and Adrian! They were super accommodating, sweet with Gus and very attentive and kept us informed all along. We would use them again in a flash but were only in Detroit for a wedding weekend. They are the best-we highly recommend!!”
“Excellent experience with Jessica. My dog, Mila, was with her for an extended time (10 days!) and she was as happy as can be when I picked her up. Jessica sent pictures and updates throughout the duration of the visit. Professional and friendly. We will be returning to Jessica for services in the future.”
“Cody (and Sersi) was amazing for our boys. Being a group of three Aussies made it that much better because everyone got along great and we got great pictures of our boys! Would absolutely bring our dogs to Cody again!”
“Jessica was super easy to work with, accommodating and her energy is 10/10. We have a big rescue puppy who did so well with Jessica, and we think was sad to leave her. Will definitely use again in the future.”
“Whitley was amazing!! Otis is an active guy and there were no shortage of action packed adventures. Otis and Whitley's dog Ollie had a fun and became best buddies. Whitely shared updates 2 times daily and I had complete peace of mind! I highly recommend her! We will be back for sure!!”
“Abbey was wonderful! I’m always nervous about leaving our sweet Goldendoodle with people but I felt completely comfortable during our time away and knew Abbey was taking the best care of him. Ford is pretty great too!”
“Kira's been our rover since we moved to Detroit, and our dog's hung out with her and her dog many times at this point. Our dog clearly loves staying over, which is rare for her, and it speaks to Kira's ability to care for animals and be responsible and present. Will continue to trust her with my dog for as long as she's willing!”
“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“This was our first time boarding our two dachshunds. I was nervous at first but Nancy allowed us to meet her & her dog Betty before booking. Her dog Betty is a gentle giant and was nice to my dogs. Nancy did a great job at providing updates and sending us pictures. We will definitely be booking with Nancy in the future. Thank you!”
