“Joni was the perfect match for our dachshund, Coby. He had a wonderful time and was loved and cared for as if he were her own dog. It was like a doggie resort. Joni has her entire house fixed perfectly for dogs. We will definitely be asking Joni watch Coby again in the future.”
“Martha was very personable in our arrangement. She sent several messages to let us know how our Gabbi was doing. We've got a real spoiled dog and she wasn't used to being away, but Martha allowed her to sleep with her to keep her calm. That was much appreciated.”
“Susan was great with our girls! From the start, I could tell our fur babies were at ease with her. She sent pictures and updates while they were in her care! She was quick to respond and very easy to work with. We will definitely book with Susan again!”
“Kasey was an excellent choice for watching our puppy, Rocky. She provided regular updates throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. When we returned, Rock was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Kasey for pet sitting!”
“Our boys had an absolute blast with Damoan! We received updates and photos throughout the days which helped us know how much fun they were having, and that they were safe :) Cannot wait to utilize her again for puppy play dates!”
“Sara and John Patrick took exceptional care of our senior girl. We received regular updates with photos of how she was doing and all of the love she was getting from the family. We are always hesitant to leave her with someone who isn't family, especially as she has gotten older, but we had no concerns after dropping her off. We will highly recommend them to friends and hope to rebook with them when the need arises.”
“Maverick had a blast and was well taken care of!! We loved getting picture updates!! Maverick has separation anxiety and tends to not eat while away from home but he did eat and had a great time!! He came home a tired pup which for him is good.”
“We're so happy to have discovered Kim on Rover. She is an amazing dog caretaker! She treated our two dogs like her own and helped us feel comfortable leaving them behind. She sent many pictures of the dogs in and out of the house. She paid special attention to our senior dog and made him comfortable. We will definitely use her again.”
“We live about 4 hours away in the UP. A family engagement brought us down to the Lansing area, but our accommodations did not allow for our dog. Jordan came with high reviews and was super flexible about a late night drop off and an early morning pickup. We weren't sure how Loki would behave since he has a lot of separation anxiety and this was his first time away from family for two nights. But Jordan was very kind and by the end Loki started to warm up to him. The update and photo put our minds at ease. We would definitely book with Jordan again the next time we are in the area.”
“This is our 2nd time using Toni and we couldn’t be happier with her! She is easy to communicate with and we love the updates we get. We always love seeing pictures! This really helps us feel more comfortable while we are away from our pup! She is very accommodating and has a great setup! Toni is also a pro at giving meds and eye drops! We will definitely use her again!”
“Melissa is awesome. She paid very close attention to my dog Tulu and they bonded quickly. Melissa sent pictures every day sometimes twice a day with nice comments. I recommend her highly and I won’t hesitate to book her again.”
“Marty and her family were wonderful ...so much so I was a little worried that Delaney wouldn't want to come home :) Marty sent pictures and videos during the 10 days we were out of town and I was able to enjoy our vacation knowing my fur baby was in such good hands! ”
“My dog Cooper was very relaxed and at home with Cheryl. I felt at ease with Cooper in her care with his special dietary needs and separation anxiety. I really appreciated how she accommodated my change in schedule due to unexpected travel delays. Definitely will rebook for future dog boarding.”
“Rishi is a true dog lover! He recently looked after my dog, Mocha, and did a wonderful job. He sent me daily video clips, which were so comforting and reassuring. Mocha was clearly happy and well cared for. I could see how much Rishi genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. I’d highly recommend him as a dog sitter!”
“Christine and Hendrik were both outstanding sitters for my Maltese, Kasie. Kasie is generally afraid of men, but she warmed up to Hendrik and loved them both very much. She was very happy there, and that's unusual for Kasie because she is so attached to us. I think she's going to miss them since we brought her home. They took great care of her. She was safe, secure, and having the time of her life at their wonderful home with a fenced back yard. I will book them again and again!”
“Fabulous sitter! She was quick to reply and took care of our babe last minute. She even went out of her way to drop him off for us, and waited 5-10 minutes extra due to our event not being done yet. HIGHLY recommend! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”
“Chris was AMAZING! ⭐️ 10 out of 10! ⭐️ Chris gave our pup Libby the attention and love she needed, and what we wanted for her. We were looking for someone who cared about Libby, included her as a family member, made her feel special, and still maintained her daily routine. We got updates every day with pictures, which helped ease our worries, seeing her happy, playing, and interacting with Chris and his family. We would highly recommend Chris and will definitely book with him again!!! 💛 Thank you Chris!”

About: While I love animals of all kinds, cats are my soul animals. As you probably saw in other spots on my profile, I currently have 4 of my own. (I had five, but I very sadly lost my dear girl, Rita, to cancer last year ❤️). I love my kitties so much that I literally have two of their portraits tattooed on my arm. They're my entire world. I know that those of us who love cats, all share the same obsession. We're a special type of person. I currently care-take for my sick boy, Castle, dealing with his kidney disease. And have taken care of all my babies with the utmost care through their whole lives. I'm comfortable and confident in giving all kinds of medications, including administering subcutaneous fluids by myself. I'd love to care for your kitties while you're away!
“We always feel so much more at ease being on vacation when Alex is checking on our cat babies. He sends photos and lets us know how they are doing. Our one cat can be fussy about where she eats and we know that Alex will move her plate so she can have her solo moment. We appreciate the care and attention he provides.”

About: My entire life I’ve had the blessing to care for pets. From my Rottweiler Roxie, to my sweet kitty Nala, I’ve learned what to look for to provide the best care to my animals. I’ve also had extensive training in caring for livestock. During my undergrad I spent three years as a pig farmer and I loved every minute of it.

“Joni is awesome!!! Her setup is a like a dog's resort. She greeted us, showed us how my pup could run around freely inside and out. The topper, my dog loves to swim and she had a setup with the doggie stairs. She even sent me a video :). It was great to relax knowing my baby was in good hands!”

“Cody did a wonderful job providing day-care for our two dogs! Lots of pictures sent and they both came home and fell right asleep from all the fun they had. Definitely will be reusing and highly recommend!”
“We called Victoria and rishi last minute and needed emergency help, they came through like gangbusters. Thank you guys for letting our wedding event go off without a hitch. You are perfect dog watchers. Thank you!”
“Makayla was wonderful with my 7 year old lab! She was communicative and sent me pictures of Ollie enjoying his time with her. She even took the time to talk to me about his behavior patterns and needs as identified by me. I will certainly be booking again!”
“Kasey is absolutely incredible. As a first-time pet parent, I’m naturally a little anxious, but she made the entire experience seamless and reassuring from start to finish. Rosie had such wonderful, positive exposure to her two sweet dogs and even her kitty — which was so important to me. I could tell Rosie was not only safe, but genuinely thriving in a well-balanced, loving environment. The socialization alone is priceless. Kasey’s communication is top-tier. She sent consistent updates and videos that gave me total peace of mind. Seeing Rosie playing, exploring, and happily interacting made all the difference. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which I truly appreciated. I feel so lucky to have found her and will absolutely be requesting her for all future needs. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾”

“Kimberly was super flexible and great with our 7 month old pup, Maggie! She communicated well with us ahead of time and made the whole process smooth as we were navigating Rover for the first time. Her dog Sparky got along great with our dog and Maggie was nice and tired out in the evening. Thanks again!”
“Jackie was accommodating to my schedule and let me drop her off early. She has a bunch of dog supplies at her place in case you forget anything (like I did). My pup came home pooped from all the walks she got and she definitely enjoyed her time at Jackie’s.”
“Colleen was great! Her facilities were clean and comfortable. My boys have never been boarded or left with a sitter they didn’t know, but they were clearly comfortable and relaxed staying with Colleen. She sent several pictures of them during their stay that gave me peace of mind that they were in good hands and enjoying their stay. I will definitely seek out Colleen again if I need daycare or boarding services in the future.”
“Duke seemed to enjoy hanging out with Mackenzie and her fiance. Mackenzie was quick to respond to my messages, and was very pleasant to interact with. I'd have her watch Duke again! Thanks.”

Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine I absolutely love dogs! I have a sweet pup of my own named Pepper.

About: I've had my own pets since I was a child (0ver 40 years) and have also fostered dogs through capital area humane society for years. I currently walk an older couples dog weekly to ensure she gets out and some exercise each week. I work from home and can take multiple breaks to walk away throughout the day. I love being outdoors and going for walks in any type of weather. Rain is something I try to avoid. I am free to work remotely from any location if you happen to need a pet sitter in home or multiple check ins throughout a specific time period.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog since he was a puppy and have cared for neighbors and friends animals while they’re out of town. I have experience with puppies, crazy hyper dogs, all the way to older dogs, they all have fun quirks and I love every second I can spend with them! I currently work a full time job however im looking for a side gig that I can create a flexible schedule with! I have availability throughout the week days and most weekends during the morning and evening I have a large back yard where my own pup loves to run and play! I love playing fetch and frisbee and anything else to fill my dogs heart and I’ll do the same with yours!
“Kaily did an awesome job taking our two dogs out for a long walk several times while we were on vacation and my mom was sitting them! She was a great communicator and flexible to work with. She was also super accommodating to each dogs needs. Our older dog Sadie got tired out so Kaily brought her back early and then continued on with our younger pup who wanted a longer walk. Would recommend Kaily!”
About: At an early age, I started walking the neighborhood dogs. I’ve always loved animals, and treat them as my own. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their pets and take them out when needed. I’m very attentive and will treat every animal with the kindness they deserve. I work from home three days a week, and have the weekends off. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can take my work with me anywhere I go. Caring for your pets in your home will be my main priority. I will make sure they are well taken care of, loved, and feel safe.
“Lisa is delightful and a great communicator. She is reliable and so good with my senior chihuahua mix, Mika. It is very comforting to know Lisa also has a senior chihuahua, and is very experienced with dog care. I am happy Mika seems to really enjoy her walks with Lisa and was able to get comfortable with her fast. Lisa takes her time and is in tune with Mika’s needs. I feel bad on days I have to leave Mika alone at home for so long for work, so it means the world to me that Lisa makes sure her time with Mika is quality bonding.”
About: I've owned pets of all kinds starting as a child! Animals bring me incredible joy, and I'd love to bring that joy into your home when I watch yours! I've owned, rescued and loved cats, dogs, rabbits, ducks, raccoons, birds, and squirrels! I currently own 4 cats, all of which were rescues. Two of them brother and sister who I hand raised and bottle fed. I also have 3 dogs, A gaggle a blue heelers, so I'm especially used to high energy pups. Though they very recently left my care due to a separation. I take great pride in the attention to detail I give to the animals in my care. I'm experienced in giving all kinds of medications, to both dogs and cats. In fact, one of my own kitties has kidney disease, and I've been managing his treatment and care 100% alone. Cooking him three meals a day, hand feeding, administering any medications needed, and even giving him at-home subcutaneous fluids. But as always, let's please communicate about the details of your pet beforehand if any special care is needed so we can make sure we're a great fit for eachother! I'm a corporate professional who is very fortunate to work from home, and has really great control of their schedule! So I can very likely work my schedule around your needs! For those whose pets I will be dropping in on to feed or walk, I take great care in making sure instructions are followed, and all the needs of your pets are met! I have an abundance of love to give, so rest assured that they'll get as many scritches as they can handle, and as much fulfillment as I can give while I'm there. I know what it's like to have to leave your fur-family alone, and I'll do everything I can to make this time a positive one for them, and you! I also offer cat boarding, which seems rarely offered. I wanted to offer this because I myself have been in a situation where I've needed this service, and I've never found a place that offers it, and it was absolutely so stressful so try and find a solution! For the kitties that stay with me, I have a completely separate spot in my house that I will have them stay in, since I have kitties of my own. The previous owner of my house actually had this section designed as an in-home salon, so it has a completely separate entrance into my home. As cat owners, we know how sensitive and stressed they can get, and introducing cats to other new cats just adds more unnecessary stress. This separate entrance and room allows for a stress free, safe environment that's large and clean to play and hang in, all to themselves! They will have their own sanitized, fresh litter, litterbox at the ready for them. No need to have to haul your own supplies here! Just bring any food and treats (or any special toys or blankets that you feel might be good things for them to enjoy their stay better, or be more at ease!) Your pets must be fully vaccinated in order to come stay, so please be ready to show proof of up to date vaccinations prior to any boarding bookings. This is for the safety of both your fur babies and mine.
“Makayla is the epitome of professional and we couldn't ask for a better person to leave our pets with. She is knowledgeable when it comes to breeds, training, and overall ways to work with you so your animal gets the most consistent care possible from all fronts.”

About: I grew up with dogs, and have volunteered at the Humane Society of Genesee County in Michigan as a teenager and at Soul Dog Rescue in Colorado as an adult. I have experience walking and handling all kinds of dogs and I've loved every minutes of it! I'm a WFH tech research worker so I understand the importance of routine and responsibility when it comes to care services. My apartment complex now sadly doesn't allow dogs otherwise I would have one of my own. The silver lining is that I'll use that energy to love and care for your pup as my own :). I have a full time work from home job so my hours are flexible during the week to attend to your pup! I tend to be punctual and responsive because I take caring for your pet just as serious as my day job. I'm also available nights and weekends to stop by and make sure your dog is well cared for. I have experience dog/cat sitting outside my own home so I'm very comfortable caring for animals in their own space. I love to keep routines as normal and expected as possible, so I'm likely to ask questions about what your dog expects on a day-to-day basis so I can reduce disruption and be a source of fun/comfort for your pet.
About: New to Rover but not new to caring for animals. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. I’m a dependable, structured sitter who understands that pets do best when they feel safe, calm, and cared for—just like at home. As a busy mom managing a full household, I naturally bring consistency, patience, and attention to detail into everything I do—including pet care. I’m especially great with dogs who: • prefer routine • have a little anxiety • need calm, steady energy You can expect: ✔ timely communication ✔ daily photo + message updates ✔ a clean, safe, low-stress environment ✔ someone who treats your pet like family—but with structure I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, and I take that seriously. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’m currently working remotely so I’ll have plenty of companionship for your pet. I walk often myself so I’d be happy to exercise with your pet as well. I have a large yard that is unfenced. I’m open to coming to your home as well. I also have two daughters that are dog lovers that can’t wait to play with and love on your pets!
About: I’ve been house/pet sitting for large dogs such as mastiffs, pitties, and labradoodles. Also have cared for small animals such as ferrets, rabbits, chickens and small breeds of dogs! I have been working at a horse farm for 10 years where I am responsible for daily care and support! I am a safe and responsible sitter and Walker, following specific instructions as needed! I recently graduated college with a bachelors in biology and plans to attend veterinary school in the future. I’ve owned all sorts of animals my whole life from tortoises to ferrets to mastiffs and chickens. I grew up working at an equestrian barn for over 10 years. I am very permeable in my schedule, just message for more availability! I have a fenced in yard and listen very well to directions from owners as far as dog friendliness and travel instructions! I love being outdoors and am very active. I also don’t have a problem bringing in mail, taking out trash if house sitting is necessary.
About: I've always had a pet in my home. Whether it be a dog, cat, fish, rabbit, turtle, or lizard, they are always treated like family. To be honest, I enjoy animals more than people most days. An animal can never be "bad" in my eyes, and will never be treated like it is. Your pet will be treated like it's one of my own and part of this family. It will be given endless patience and love. Our family would love to have our own pet right now, but we just got a new home, new jobs and we have three younger boys so we are taking the time to get settled. Using the Rover app is perfect for seeing how our life will be when we do have a pet, and what kind we would like. Thank you for considering me, and I hope to hear from you and meet your pets! Perfectly. Our lifestyle is lax, and focused on family and happiness overall. Everyone here loves animals, and appreciates the opportunity to get to know your pet! Your pets safety is VERY important to us and is always at the forefront of my mind. I treat them as if they're someone's child.

“Martha was very personable in our arrangement. She sent several messages to let us know how our Gabbi was doing. We've got a real spoiled dog and she wasn't used to being away, but Martha allowed her to sleep with her to keep her calm. That was much appreciated.”
“Susan was great with our girls! From the start, I could tell our fur babies were at ease with her. She sent pictures and updates while they were in her care! She was quick to respond and very easy to work with. We will definitely book with Susan again!”
“Our boys had an absolute blast with Damoan! We received updates and photos throughout the days which helped us know how much fun they were having, and that they were safe :) Cannot wait to utilize her again for puppy play dates!”
“Sara and John Patrick took exceptional care of our senior girl. We received regular updates with photos of how she was doing and all of the love she was getting from the family. We are always hesitant to leave her with someone who isn't family, especially as she has gotten older, but we had no concerns after dropping her off. We will highly recommend them to friends and hope to rebook with them when the need arises.”
“Maverick had a blast and was well taken care of!! We loved getting picture updates!! Maverick has separation anxiety and tends to not eat while away from home but he did eat and had a great time!! He came home a tired pup which for him is good.”
“We're so happy to have discovered Kim on Rover. She is an amazing dog caretaker! She treated our two dogs like her own and helped us feel comfortable leaving them behind. She sent many pictures of the dogs in and out of the house. She paid special attention to our senior dog and made him comfortable. We will definitely use her again.”
“We live about 4 hours away in the UP. A family engagement brought us down to the Lansing area, but our accommodations did not allow for our dog. Jordan came with high reviews and was super flexible about a late night drop off and an early morning pickup. We weren't sure how Loki would behave since he has a lot of separation anxiety and this was his first time away from family for two nights. But Jordan was very kind and by the end Loki started to warm up to him. The update and photo put our minds at ease. We would definitely book with Jordan again the next time we are in the area.”
“This is our 2nd time using Toni and we couldn’t be happier with her! She is easy to communicate with and we love the updates we get. We always love seeing pictures! This really helps us feel more comfortable while we are away from our pup! She is very accommodating and has a great setup! Toni is also a pro at giving meds and eye drops! We will definitely use her again!”
“Marty and her family were wonderful ...so much so I was a little worried that Delaney wouldn't want to come home :) Marty sent pictures and videos during the 10 days we were out of town and I was able to enjoy our vacation knowing my fur baby was in such good hands! ”
“My dog Cooper was very relaxed and at home with Cheryl. I felt at ease with Cooper in her care with his special dietary needs and separation anxiety. I really appreciated how she accommodated my change in schedule due to unexpected travel delays. Definitely will rebook for future dog boarding.”
“Christine and Hendrik were both outstanding sitters for my Maltese, Kasie. Kasie is generally afraid of men, but she warmed up to Hendrik and loved them both very much. She was very happy there, and that's unusual for Kasie because she is so attached to us. I think she's going to miss them since we brought her home. They took great care of her. She was safe, secure, and having the time of her life at their wonderful home with a fenced back yard. I will book them again and again!”
“Fabulous sitter! She was quick to reply and took care of our babe last minute. She even went out of her way to drop him off for us, and waited 5-10 minutes extra due to our event not being done yet. HIGHLY recommend! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”
“Chris was AMAZING! ⭐️ 10 out of 10! ⭐️ Chris gave our pup Libby the attention and love she needed, and what we wanted for her. We were looking for someone who cared about Libby, included her as a family member, made her feel special, and still maintained her daily routine. We got updates every day with pictures, which helped ease our worries, seeing her happy, playing, and interacting with Chris and his family. We would highly recommend Chris and will definitely book with him again!!! 💛 Thank you Chris!”
“Olivia was wonderful. She watched our dog for 5 days and sent great updates. She also gave him an oatmeal bath bc he was itchy and bought him toys. Would absolutely recommend booking with her.”
“This is the first time we have used this service. Holly was very friendly at our meet-and-greet...I could tell that she was an animal lover. We were still very nervous, because our Oliver is 8 months of crazy. But, Holly really treated our Oliver like he was part of her family. She sent us pictures during his stay...he seemed very happy. We highly recommend Holly and if a need ever arises again, we will definitely ask her. Thank you Holly for your compassion and patience with our little one.”
“Lauren and her sister, Geneva, were so amazing when caring for our 2 adult cats! They were loving, great with providing pictures, offered solid, clear communication, and were so incredibly flexible when we needed to make changes to our reservation! We can tell our girls had a great time and were so loved while we were away!”
