“They took great care of my special pup. I wasn't sure how he'd do being boarded without his brother for the first time in 4 years, but he did great. I got regular updates and knew my baby was being well cared for.”
“A dog is family, so finding a caregiver for an extended stay can be challenging. We found Paige to be ideal for Buster, a 12 year old Maltese mix. Paige's home environment is very similar to ours so Buster was comfortable in his stay. Paige communicated with updates and pictures which was nice and comforting for us. I would highly recommend Paige.”
“Thanks to Jason and Kristen for taking such great care of Chanel - - my one year old miniature golden doodle. They supplied daily updates and pictures. I would definitely book with them again.”

“Alice was so great with my pups! The yard is large and fenced in for safe playtime. Plus, I got pictures while I was away! I will be using Alice again and I recommend her services. Thanks Alice!”
“Olivia did a great job. Our dog seemed to settle in with her just fine. Good daily updates. We appreciated that we felt we could trust her with our family pet while on vacation. We would love to use her services again. Thanks Olivia for taking care of our girl.”
“Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.”
“Lauren watched our dog over a holiday and made our vacation so much easier and more enjoyable! The updates and photos were so appreciated. I don’t think our sweet Ivy wants to leave her! We have never tried Rover because it was hard to find an affordable and trustworthy person - Lauren is it!!”
“Kimberly was very informative from the moment she met Rylee. I appreciate how she sent updates throughout my week long trips. The photos she sent often put me at ease. Kimberly was very patient with Rylee as well. Thank you again for taking care of her!”
“Excellent! Highly recommended -- This is the second time Michelle has watched Polly for us, and is incredible, excellent communication and takes amazing care of Polly. A++++”
“KellyAnna was awesome to work with. Quick to respond initially. She was gracious enough to let us come over and get acquainted. My first visit I wasn't able to bring my dog with me. I had a special circumstance come up and we were able to come up with a good solution. Them we all came and visited the next day and everything went great. This was my first rover experience. I am so thrilled with this service. And KellyAnna was so helpful, I am very thankful for your ability to harbor Otis for 4 nights. Thank you, thank you!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Sara and John! They went above and beyond caring for my two dogs this weekend—sending lots of pictures, keeping me updated, and even doing the cutest little activities with them. It was clear my pups were in great hands and having a wonderful time. I felt so comfortable and at ease knowing they were being so well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”
“Nimbus had a great time with Chris and his family. I was sent updates with pictures regularly and I’m very grateful he was able to watch her very last minute. Would definitely book again! 👍🏼”
About: I've grown up with spayed/unspayed dogs, tiny and medium sized, and have bathed them throughout the years. I'm less experienced with cats as I wasn't allowed one as a kid, but I would always play with and look after my friends' cats when I got the chance 😸 I'm currently a student at Michigan State University, with a part time job as an ice hockey referee. I am usually home 18 hours out of the day most of the days of the week! I live alone in an apartment on an upper floor. 650 sq. ft of space, so it's spacious. There is also an outdoor yard if needed. Caring for your pets will give me breaks between studying and homework! I will treat your pets as if they were my own, and making your pets happy will make me happy! 😊

“Had a wonderful experience with Breanne! We had to book a sitter with only a few days notice and she was willing to help us out. She sent us pictures of our cat every day and even offered to clean the bowls and the couple spots of puke our cat left. Amazing! Will definitely book her again when we need it!”
“My cat Chubbs loved Karen! She watched him while I was away for a week on vacation and sends so many updates on how he’s doing and what they did and sends so many cute pictures too!”

I have extensive experience with rescue and senior animals, understanding the patience and special care they often need. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my lifetime of dedication, calm demeanor, and deep compassion for animals of all ages and backgrounds. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I work part-time as a nanny for my nephew, but I still have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to care for your pets. Pet care easily fits into my daily and weekly routine, and I’m available most weekdays and weekends for visits, walks, or check-ins. I’m happy to help keep your pets happy and cared for whenever you need support. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I will carefully follow all instructions and routines to ensure your pet feels secure and cared for. Whether it’s a drop-in visit for companionship or a walk around the neighborhood, I will provide attentive, trustworthy care in a loving environment that helps your pet feel at ease while you’re away.
“Shelbie was so great with my shy kitty from the start - she warmed right up to her! She was super communicative and sent lots of updates during an overnight stay, including an incident of my cat throwing up + updates on how well she was eating afterward. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Megan was the perfect cat sitter for Sasha! She took care of her as her own pet, she made sure to entertain and play with her, and also sent us daily updates with photos and videos:) we are really thankful and for sure recommend her!!”
“Alex was great! He was very communicative about my pets and let me know what time he was arriving and leaving each day. He made sure our boy cat got his medicine and was really good about getting our picky cat to eat away from the others. He sent pictures each day, which was very comforting. He also brought in packages from our mail securely in the house, which was extra helpful.”
About: Hey everybody! My name is Alex and I am very grateful and eager to be apart of a business that helps dogs and their loving owners. I have come to learn that pet care is quite important in my ten plus years of experience with dogs. Years ago, I was a partner in an organization that rescued dogs from kill shelters and then found them safe and loving forever homes. SO I am no stranger to dogs and good quality care. If you have any questions for me in terms of my experience or services, please do not hesitate to call. Any age from little rambunctious pups to easy going older dogs, I am happy to oblige to making life easier for you and your dog!
“Lizz came by twice a day to take care of our three cats while we were away. One of our cats needed a daily inhaler, and she handled it wonderfully. The cats loved playing with Lizz, and having her there gave us such peace of mind knowing our fur babies were well cared for. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Justin was great with Joey! He is definitely a food-motivated guy so anyone who feeds him and gives him attention and pets is OK in his book. On my end, I was kept up to date with each visit which was so appreciated! I now have some awesome photos of Joey being his silly self from when I was last away! I cannot emphasize more about Justin's great pet-sitting services!”
“Sheri was fantastic! She played with my ball-fetching cat and was patient with my skittish diva. She updated me on her twice daily visits. She gave me peace of mind while I was away from home. Great!!”
“Wonderful and thorough care. I never worried about my boy while gone for a week. She anticipated needs even I did not (full litter box change) and went above and beyond in other ways as well. She sends lots of updates which was a comfort while away. She cared for my boy cat Zissou as if her own. 1000% recommend! She will be who I use for any future needs.”
About: I've taken care of cats and kittens. I will always help keep the litter box areas clean and tidy. I have taken care of indoor and outdoor cats the most. If you need a cat walker then I'm your gal. I've never owned a cat myself however I have enough experience with housesitter and pet sitting to say that can take of your cat if you need help.
About: What sets me apart is my long-term experience caring for rescue cats and understanding that trust with animals takes time, patience, and consistency. My family’s two cats are rescues, and helping care for them over the past 9 years taught me how important it is to let cats warm up at their own pace and feel safe in their environment. Because of that experience, I’m especially good with shy, nervous, or independent cats who may need extra patience and gentle care. I also house sat and cared for my grandma’s cat for two weeks while she recovered from surgery, so I understand how important reliable, attentive care is when owners are away. I always focus on creating a calm, stress-free environment while following each cat’s routine closely so they feel comfortable and secure.
“Taylor was great with our three cats! Taylor was very communicative and sent through Rover cards, including pictures and videos. Our cats looked happy and well taken care of upon our return. I hope to continue working with Taylor again in the future!”

“We took our two dogs to Alice for a day trip - we were headed to Lake Michigan, and wanted to be sure the dogs were well cared-for. Alice was very cordial and her instructions clear. The dogs seem happy and content, and I couldn't believe the report on the dogs I received by email! It was a wonderful thing to see that they were doing well. Nice touch! No doubt a lot of work for Alice, but it is appreciated. We'll definitely book with Alice again. Happy dogs are very important to us.”

“Kasey was great! She was so responsive to messages, took care of Wrigley like one of her own dogs, and kept me updated with pictures and videos all day. It was great to know that she was being so well cared for. I truly appreciated Wrigley’s time with Kasey!”
“Paige was WONDERFUL! Very communicative and personable. She asked that I come 15–20 minutes early to discuss Dakota's routine, ask any questions, and tour her home and backyard. It made me feel super comfortable, and I appreciated her willingness to help. I will definitely book with her again!”

For in-home sitting or boarding, I provide a structured routine, close supervision, positive reinforcement, and regular updates so pet parents can feel confident and informed while they’re away.
“Jason and Kristen have taken such great care of our dog Eddie. He usually has separation anxiety, but always RUNS to their door to be played with and cared for by this family. My requests and quirks are respected, photos are sent and communication response is as close to immediate as one can be. I rest easily knowing my dog is in responsible, caring hands!!”

“Nikki has been great with my young dog. She has walked/dropped in to check on him during two separate occasions when he was healing from surgery or other procedures from the vet. She is great about sending updates for when she is on the way to my house and on my dog’s mood that day. She is very good at reading him and judging whether he wanted to walk that day or just hang out in the backyard. I recommend Nikki for drop in visits or dog walks.”

Friends and acquaintances have relied on me to care for their pets for up to six months at a time. I work from home and have a fairly open schedule so I’m available to stay in your home or visit your home and pets during the day and can keep them company during the workday as well as on the weekends.

About: I'm an animal lover looking to spend more time away from the keyboard and would love to spend time taking care of your furry family member! I have 3 cats at home and lost my soul pup in the fall of 2025 💔. I've been on Rover for several years now, I grew up with cats and a dog, and have always been a huge animal lover. I've volunteered at the cat café in East Lansing keeping the cat room clean, performing wellness checks, and giving extra love to the kitties there. I've also volunteered at humane societies in my hometown and near my college by dog walking, socializing cats, and maintaining facilities as necessary. Reach out to me if you have any questions or if you'd like to see if we'd be a good fit! I'm not currently working full time (which will hopefully change soon) so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to meet & greets, drop-ins, and dog walking. I have a large fenced in yard with some wild critters about (bunnies andgroundhogs mostly). I would spend time taking walks, playing, and training along with all the essentials.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who will treat your dog(s) like my own. I’ve had a dog as a pet my entire life, have fostered dogs previously and volunteer with a local pet rescue. I’m available for dog walking, drop ins and play time. I’m reliable and will create a stress free situation while you are away! I’m currently not working and have a flexible schedule. I’m available between 7:00am and 9:00pm. Available 7 days a week for dog walking and drop ins. I understand how important it is to feel confident in the care your pet receives. I have experience handling senior dogs and administering medication. I follow instructions and am detailed.
About: All my life I have been taking care of dogs, whether it’s puppies or senior dogs. I find dogs interesting and I love watching them in their natural setting. I can definitely tune into your dog’s body language and give them what they need. And my friends and family are always asking me for help with their pets! As of right now I’m available Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday all day! Then Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday I’m only available until two. This will soon change! I don’t offer pets in my home, but I will be glad to come to yours and take care of all your pets needs! If you have pets that require special care, even medication, I will be happy to accommodate that. Or if they just need playtime or to use the bathroom. I’m happy to do whatever you need!

About: What truly sets me apart is a lifetime of devotion to animals and the full-time availability that your pet deserves. Growing up in Cuba, I was known for bringing home every stray I found; today, that passion has evolved into a deep understanding of canine behavior and dedicated care. My "Secret Sauce" for Pet Care: • Constant Companionship: Since I work remotely, your pet won't just be "checked on"—they will have a coworker! I am home nearly all day to provide potty breaks, belly rubs, and supervision. • Body Language Expert: With years of experience owning dogs and cats, I am highly sensitive to their non-verbal cues. I can tell the difference between a "let's play" bark and "I’m feeling anxious" pacing, ensuring your pet feels safe and understood. • Communication is Key: I know how hard it is to be away from your best friend. You can expect frequent photo updates and messages throughout the day so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. • Active Lifestyle: Daily walks aren't a chore for me—they’re a highlight. I ensure every dog gets the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need to stay happy. Safety First: The Meet & Greet I believe the best sits start with a solid foundation of trust. I require a Meet & Greet with all new clients before a booking is finalized. This allows us to ensure the chemistry is right for everyone. If for any reason it doesn’t feel like a perfect match, I offer a full refund. Your pet’s comfort is my absolute priority! Because I work from home full-time, my schedule is built around the needs of the pets in my care. I don’t just pop in; I provide a consistent, calm environment where your pet is treated like a member of the family. • Morning: We start with a brisk walk and breakfast to get the energy out before I "clock in." • Workday: While I’m at my desk, pets usually nap by my feet or join me for brief play breaks and backyard potty visits between my meetings. • Afternoon: A mid-day walk or enrichment session to keep their minds sharp and bodies active. • Evening: After work, I may go to a yoga class which is usually about two hours total. Afterwards, it’s all about relaxation—more walks, dinner, and plenty of couch cuddles. In Your Home: • Respectful Presence: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping things tidy and secure. • Minimal Disruption: I focus on keeping your pet in their "safe zone." We’ll go on their favorite neighborhood routes and play with their familiar toys. • Safety First: I am extremely diligent about double-checking locks, alarms, and ensuring no "off-limits" items are within reach of your pet.
About: After our dog crossed the rainbow bridge at nearly 14 years old, my spouse, Randy and I, have loved caring for family pets intermittently. Being retired has opened up more time to share our love with your dog(s)! Retired couple. Our ranch home is pet friendly with sliding patio door for our fenced yard access. I am a nurse so also comfortable giving medications. We love walking dogs we care for if desired twice per day. We have a fenced yard with trail access for walking dogs if desired twice per day. Dogs are welcome on furniture if allowed at your home. We keep dog towels by our patio access for paw wiping.
About: Currently working as a veterinary assistant, at Michigan State for animal science, previously an adoption specialist at our local shelter, in home care giver for the past 10 years Working part time in the morning at my clinic, and evenings with a client outside of the home. I make frequent stops at home, and hang out with my own dogs for all of my breaks in the day! Apartment living, but I do have a dog park across the street! My dogs like to go on walks every 4-6 hours, so that would be exercise!
About: I have been on rover for almost 3 years now, I have experience in all care fields (child, adult, and animal), and am also a licensed massage therapist. I have 6 adorable Pugbulls and one cat.I've cared for fish, cats, and dogs. In a 30min time block I can usually walk a little over a mile with a dog, even if they want to stop and sniff around a bit. I love all animals and am always willing to look after new types of animals! Unfortunately I’m not currently taking on new weekly walks, I will update this should that change. Currently my schedule is very flexible and open during the whole week. Should that schedule change I will update this description and let any clients I’m working with know. I have a very flexible work schedule as a massage therapist, if a day isn’t available I will have it updated as unavailable on my rover calendar. I always make sure to allow all pets to come to me at their own pace without making them feel like I’m invading their personal space. This helps them be comfortable with me quickly and feel safe in their home.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with both dogs and cats, along with my ability to adapt care to each pet’s unique needs. I grew up around animals and have hands-on experience with senior pet care, including administering medications and supporting pets with mobility issues. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable adjusting routines to keep older pets safe and comfortable. I also work well with younger, more energetic dogs. I enjoy playtime and exercise, and I have a fenced-in backyard that’s great for games like fetch, as well as a walkable neighborhood for regular walks and enrichment. My home environment is another advantage—I offer a calm, quiet space that’s especially well-suited for pets who need lower stimulation or a more relaxed setting. While I do have three cats, I’m experienced in managing introductions and can easily separate spaces when needed. I’m happy to work with dogs who are cat-friendly or those who simply need a thoughtful, structured environment to feel at ease. Overall, I aim to provide a safe, flexible, and comfortable experience tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine, and because I work from home, I’m able to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins, so adding additional pets fits in seamlessly. I build in time for both structured care—like walks, meals, and medications—and more flexible time for attention, enrichment, and companionship. Because I value a calm, consistent environment, I’m intentional about maintaining routines that help pets feel secure and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, backyard play, or quiet downtime, I make sure each pet gets the care and attention they need. When boarding dogs in my home, I treat each pet like a member of my family, providing a safe, comfortable, and structured environment. I maintain regular feeding schedules, offer plenty of exercise and playtime in my fenced backyard, and take dogs on walks around my walkable neighborhood. I also provide attention and companionship throughout the day to keep pets happy and engaged. For dogs with special needs, I can administer medications, accommodate mobility issues, and create a calm, low-stimulation space if needed. My home is set up so pets can interact safely with my three cats or have separate areas if they prefer. Overall, I focus on creating a routine and environment that helps every dog feel secure, comfortable, and loved while their family is away.

I can walk your pet, take them to the dog park, or play with them in your home getting all their much needed exercise. While in my clients home, I will care for their pets with love and affection, and will always be respectful to their homes as well.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 7 years old! Family friends and neighbors have relied on me to house sit, walk, and feed their pets. I love all animals and enjoy caring for them. I am currently a volunteer at a local animal shelter and have basic first aid training. I work from home most days so I have lots of flexibility. Outside of work hours I am completely free and able to travel to your home. I will tend to your animals as if they are my own. I will provide updates and communicate efficiently. Please provide me any details necessary for caring for your pets!

As an adult, I have had the privilege of caring for my own wonderful pets. I know that choosing a care provider for your animals can be a hard choice but, rest assured I will treat your "family memebers" like one of my own. What ever service you need be it pet walking, boarding or drop-ins I would be honored to fufill that duty safely and with love. If needed pick-up and drop-off services available.Thanks! *** my family and I just moved into a new home and I no longer have a fenced yard, stay tuned one is coming soon! Rest assured your pup will still get plenty of outside time☺

“Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.”
“Lauren watched our dog over a holiday and made our vacation so much easier and more enjoyable! The updates and photos were so appreciated. I don’t think our sweet Ivy wants to leave her! We have never tried Rover because it was hard to find an affordable and trustworthy person - Lauren is it!!”
“Kimberly was very informative from the moment she met Rylee. I appreciate how she sent updates throughout my week long trips. The photos she sent often put me at ease. Kimberly was very patient with Rylee as well. Thank you again for taking care of her!”
“Excellent! Highly recommended -- This is the second time Michelle has watched Polly for us, and is incredible, excellent communication and takes amazing care of Polly. A++++”
“KellyAnna was awesome to work with. Quick to respond initially. She was gracious enough to let us come over and get acquainted. My first visit I wasn't able to bring my dog with me. I had a special circumstance come up and we were able to come up with a good solution. Them we all came and visited the next day and everything went great. This was my first rover experience. I am so thrilled with this service. And KellyAnna was so helpful, I am very thankful for your ability to harbor Otis for 4 nights. Thank you, thank you!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Sara and John! They went above and beyond caring for my two dogs this weekend—sending lots of pictures, keeping me updated, and even doing the cutest little activities with them. It was clear my pups were in great hands and having a wonderful time. I felt so comfortable and at ease knowing they were being so well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Nimbus had a great time with Chris and his family. I was sent updates with pictures regularly and I’m very grateful he was able to watch her very last minute. Would definitely book again! 👍🏼”
About: I've grown up with spayed/unspayed dogs, tiny and medium sized, and have bathed them throughout the years. I'm less experienced with cats as I wasn't allowed one as a kid, but I would always play with and look after my friends' cats when I got the chance 😸 I'm currently a student at Michigan State University, with a part time job as an ice hockey referee. I am usually home 18 hours out of the day most of the days of the week! I live alone in an apartment on an upper floor. 650 sq. ft of space, so it's spacious. There is also an outdoor yard if needed. Caring for your pets will give me breaks between studying and homework! I will treat your pets as if they were my own, and making your pets happy will make me happy! 😊
“Boji had yet another great time. He's super happy and ready to sleep the night away! Definitely book with him! They are the best out there and the most flexible!!”
About: Hi, I’m Hannah! I have 11+ years of caring for animals and have worked with dogs, specifically puppies for over 4 years. I have tons of experience caring for dogs and have watched many over the years. My husband Nick and I have 3 dogs of our own: a 8 year old Lab/Golden rescue who is blind, a 5 year old Cockapoo and a 4 year old mini Poodle. We also have a 1 year old tailless black kitty and a 3 year old Holland Lop rabbit. We have a fenced in yard and live an active lifestyle which includes playing lots of fetch with the pups and taking many walks. I’ve had experience with dogs with all different personalities and behaviors. Can’t wait to see your fur babies! I am available for boarding most days. I am willing to pick up/ drop off the pup if need be. Right now my schedule is open. I care for my dogs like they are part of the family. I think it’s important to prioritize my dogs need to ensure they are happy and healthy
“Jordan’s communication was top notch!!! Jordan was very attentive to my concerns and was flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Most importantly, I felt like Willard was in good hands for the short time we were away. Jordan sent texts and pictures of Willard and kept us updated throughout the stay. Jordan is great!! Highly recommended sitter!”
“My dog Duke’s visit with Ann was very good. She regularly sent pictures and updates, and took very good care of my fur baby. Ann said they had a nice time watching Duke. I will book with them again when the need arises. Thank you, Ann!”
“We always feel completely at ease leaving our pugs with Brooke! It is easy to see she really has a love for dogs and takes excellent care of them. We will hire her again and highly recommend her!”
“Stephanie was terrific! She kept great communication and was very attentive and gave the utmost care while watching my pitbull Dino while I was away. I felt confident leaving her to be responsible for him. She is reliable and trustworthy! Hope Dino can board again with her in the future.”
