“Sara was so wonderful! Our dog Jovie stayed with her for a long weekend when our plans changed and needed a sitter on short notice. She was so accommodating on meeting beforehand and Jovie took to her well. She got lots of walks and extra love with Sara. Jovie came home happy and we were so grateful to have lots of updates and photos during our trip for ease of mind! Thanks Sara!”
“Caroline and her family were great sitters for my “baby”. Our dog had opportunities to play indoors and outdoors. Caroline provided videos and messages to ensure we were aware of how she was doing. She was also responsive to our feeding schedule and questions. I will definitely use Caroline again!”
“This was Stretch's second stay with Tracey and it went great! She went above and beyond to help him up/down the stairs with his ramp. Her special care was much appreciated and I recommend her to anyone looking”
“Mandy was great! She kept my dog for over a week and was very flexible with drop off/pick up times. She sent daily updates and the cutest pictures! My dog was very spoiled by her family! I will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you Mandy!!!”
“Kelly and Brandon were kind and communicative in helping us to set up our first dog sitting experience for our puppies. They kept us updated w photos all weekend and the pups seemed to have a great time!”
“Karen was simply amazing. She took wonderful care of our dog, Daisy. And we would absolutely have her watch Daisy again. Karen offered Daisy healthy treats throughout her stay (after making sure it was okay with us). She sent pictures and updates everyday. Daisy was often cozy, comfortable, and snuggled up. Overall, it was obvious to us that Karen is a real animal lover. We are so grateful to have found her.”
“They were so comforting and took amazing care of my dog, Mila. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. They kept me updated with pictures and messages, which meant a lot. I will absolutely use them again! Thank you Barbara and Dirk.🐾🐾”
“Stephanie was great with my fur baby. He had fun playing with the other dogs and Stephanie kept me updated throughout the stay with updates and pictures. Great Caregiver and communicator.”

“Kim is a fantastic pet sitter who cares for my fur baby exceptionally well. She is friendly, trustworthy, and caring. This is already our third visit, and my dog has enjoyed his stay each time.”
“I would highly recommend Joni to everyone who needs a dog sitter. My Jazzy took to Joni right away and I know she enjoyed her stay. Joni has the perfect house and fenced in backyard which gave Jazzy the opportunity to run where ever she wanted. Joni played with Jazzy all the time and when I picked Jazzy up she slept in my arms all the way home. Jazzy is only 7 months old and she actually minds better since her stay with Joni. Joni is a very special lady who really loves dogs and is absolutely great with them. I plan to have Joni sit with my Jazzy every time we go out of town.”

Cat caregivers near you - Fowlerville
About: I personally own two cats who are like my children, so I am very familiar with caring for cats and understanding their individual needs. I have extensive experience caring for cats and genuinely enjoy interacting with each one. I can ensure they are comfortable, happy in their environment, and provided with a safe and enriching experience. Services I offer: • House sitting (My Basic House-Sitting service includes staying overnight with your Cat/Cats so they have company and comfort in their own home, along with daytime care every 4-6 hours for litter box clean up, meals, playtime, and cuddles.) • Cat Walking (30 Minute Cat Walks include a fun slow stroll around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your cat the enrichment, fresh air, and mental stimulation they need during the day. This only works if your cat has no problem with it which is understand is rare.) • Drop-ins (30 Minute Drop-Ins include checking the litter box, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away.)
“I am so thankful for Hannah taking care of my cat while I was out of town. I had to leave last minute for my dads funeral and memorial services. The washing machine flooded the basement, ankle deep, the night before the flight out- not the only disaster. With Hannah / Rover, my kitty was one thing that was in good hands, one less worry. I messed up dates on the app, Hannah fixed it. She called me to let me know the power was shut off so I was able to fix it same day. I accidentally ordered a bunch of books that got delivered after we left, she brought them in. 10/10 would recommend. Happy happy cat and everything good when we got back.”
“We used Marissa for drop in feeds for our cat while we were out of town. She was great! Prompt, courteous and communicated with us regularly! Would definitely recommend and will use her again! Thanks Marissa!”
“Annelie was great! She went above and beyond taking care of my antisocial little cat. Everything was so tidy when I returned and even though my Finley refused to come say hello, I know she was very happy to be fed and taken care of while we were gone. Can't recommend Annelie enough and will definitely request her next time!”
“I am so happy Sara is on Rover! She has watched my cats and dogs for years. Knowing Sara is caring for my animals gives me peace of mind. She checks in on my girls while I am at work. I know my pets are safe with Sara. Just meeting her you can tell she truly loves animals! Penelope & Mille are so excited to see Sara again soon! Thanks, Sara!!”
“We are so thankful for Chelsea! She took care of my sweet baby, Archer while we were away and he couldn’t have been in better hands. Chelsea was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures to put a smile on our faces each time. This was our first time with Rover and we will absolutely be using this service again AND specifically asking for Chelsea!”
“Kara was wonderful at communicating how my two kitties were while I was away on vacation. She came and met them beforehand which helped ease my fears and calm my anxiety. Kara was extremely sweet and my girls liked her right away! If I ever need a sitter again, Kara will be number one!”
“We appreciated your sweet notes & pics for every single one of your visits. It made us feel SO wonderfully connected and that our sweet furry family had a caring, warm person that truly was thoughtful to each of their needs. SO many thanks - it meant a great deal to us!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and there's nothing I enjoy more than making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their families are away. To give some insight into my experience, I have volunteered at my local humane society, caring for both cats and dogs. I also worked as a kennel attendant at a dog boarding facility, where I learned the importance of patience, routine, and paying close attention to each animal's individual needs. That experience taught me how valuable consistency and gentle care are, especially for pets with special diets, medications, or unique personalities. Over the years, I've been the go to pet sitter for friends and family, caring for cats of all ages and temperaments. Whether your cat is playful and energetic, shy and independent, or simply enjoys a cozy lap and quiet company, I'll happily follow their routine and give them the care they need to feel secure. At home, I'm owned by my sweet gray cat, Misty. She reminds me every day that every cat has their own unique personality, boundaries, and little quirks. Caring for her has made providing love, patience, and companionship second nature. When your cat is in my care, they're not just being looked after, they'll be treated like one of my own. I can't wait to meet your feline family member! 🤍

“Timber took care of our two cats while we were on vacation. She went above and beyond for us and them. Her daily reports and photos were the reason our vacation was as stress free as it was. She treated our two boys like family!”
About: I have taken care of many neighbors and families pets. I have watched birds, cats, dogs, and other exotic animals such as hedge hogs, Bearded dragons and guinea pigs!

I would also love to focus on finishing my college degree as well! I live in an apartment that has a doggy park next to it. I can help train your puppy as I helped train my dogs when they were puppies!

About: I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and communicative. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I focus on providing consistent care, following routines closely, and keeping owners informed every step of the way. I work in education with summers free and much flexibility. I am happy to provide care at the time of day your pets need it! My home offers a safe and clean environment for pets. I have 3 cats who get along with other animals. In others’ homes, I offer respect for the space and reliability to follow instructions.
“I am very pleased with the care and affection that Murphy, my pal, experienced at Amanda’s home. Murph had the best time, and I felt assured that all was well with him. This was a good experience.”
“Fantastic. Sasha is a dog whisperer. Dogs were excited to visit each day. She was accommodating with our schedule. Felt like our dogs ( aka children) were in amazing care!”
“Sheila is an amazing person and caregiver! Today was our dog’s first day with her, and our doggo was loved and very well taken care of. Thank you, Sheila!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire adult life and have dog sat for friends and family many times over the years. I am happy to be able to give your pet a home away from home! I am a SAHM so I have all day to keep an eye on your fur baby. I have a flexible schedule that allows for easy care routines that work with your pups needs. I have a fenced yard. I currently have a dog and cat that are both socialized and ready to make new friends! I also have elementary aged kids who love to play fetch and give extra pettings. No shortage of love and attention in this house!
About: We are a just a loving couple with a couple of cats and dogs. Our farm is ready to share the love with your animals and take them on an adventure when you are on your adventure. I’m Jack and I stay home to take care of my family. I live in the country with a big yard and I love animals. My girlfriend walks and takes care of animals by my side. There is always someone to love them and someone there for your animals needs. We have a big field for pets. Two dogs that roam as they please. They are trained to stay in the yard. One pet must be tethered, he gets 100 ft of chain to adventure. We live on dirt roads and have plenty of space to run all the energy out of your pups. We also can care for quiet and gentle pets. We accommodate whoever visits our home, the Hideout.
About: I have a very dog and cat friendly place to call home. Most days I am outside working around the property and the dogs are out with us. I’ve raised our dogs from 8 weeks old and the Labs are obedience trained and have taken their Canine Good Citizen class to hopefully be Therapy dogs soon. Our Pug is the youngest and raised by the Labs and of course, me. In the evenings it’s relax in the chair time. The dogs love to snuggle up and just nap after playing outside. I make my own work schedule and am able to fit work around pets. Usually only leaving the dogs for an errand run here and there. I go outside with all dogs and walk them on the property. I feed 2 times a day plus a snack or whatever is necessary for any visiting pet along with fresh water at all times. All pets have free range of the house day and night unless otherwise requested. I have an outdoor kennel for nice days if they need to be outside for a little while.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I grew up on a dairy goat farm. All sorts of dogs, horses, cats, cows, goats, etc. I have had Chihuahuas all the way through German Shepherds. Puppy age all the way through their whole lives. I am the biggest animal (especially dog) lover! I love meeting new personalities. I would spend 24/7 lounging around with my dogs & cats if I could!🩷 I currently have a 16 year old Minature Schnauzer, and an under 1 year old Goldendoodle. My old girl currently takes quite a few medications and likes her alone time. My little man loves to play, be active, and requires hands on often. Therefore, I work with a spectrum of needs. I will make sure your baby has all the play time (or alone/rest time) they need!🩷 I am a professional MMA fighter & bar tend on the weekends! Most of my job consists of being at the gym just a couple hours at a time. And I live 5 minutes away from where I train! It makes spending time with & caring for pets easy and frequent. I only bar tend two days on the weekend (and my boyfriend is home most of that time too 😁 ) Home visits 🏡: In my client’s homes, I can easily care for your pets however you need. I will play games with your furry friends, lounge around with them, etc. I am a very active person & love taking long walks myself, so I would love to do that with your dog if you’d like! I am a reliable, very detail oriented gal. Whatever instructions you leave, I’ll get them done. I love when my clients can come back to a clean, comfortable space after caring for their fur babies. Boarding 🐶: I have a fenced in back yard on a quieter side street. We have an older Miniature Schnauzer, under 1 year old Goldendoodle, and two gentle, quiet cats that lounge around (pretty much keeping to themselves) 🩷 I have plenty of space in my living area to have the zoomies. I have a spare room to give your pet some rest and seclusion too! That means I also have ample room to crate your doggie, if needed. We would love to have your best friend come hang with us 🙂
“Higgins was a happy boy with Layla. I would ask her to watch Higgins anytime. She was easy to communicate with, sent pictures, followed instructions, and most importantly Higgins was happy and well taken care of!”

“She is so fantastic! Her backyard is huge. Our dogs are still asleep and it's 16 hours since we picked them up. We're definitely going to ask her to dog sit them again. She's very friendly and open and communicates very well. We also got pictures during the day which was really nice. I think they had a fantastic time.”

I was a veterinary technician for 20 years and I have experience with cats, dogs (large & small), fish, reptiles, and farm animals. I have one Doodle, a rescue pit bull, a chihuahua, and two cats. We had cows, ponies, and donkeys for many years but now that my son and step daughter is active in sports we have retired from farm animals.

I walk dogs daily in Howell, Fowlerville, and Brighton so normally last minute bookings are available. I hope to meet you and your friends soon! Im now a stay at home mom and I work from home.

I don’t normally watch animals in my home but directions will be followed exactly for the care of your pets in your home. Leashed walks or whatever care is needed for your loved one.
About: With over 25 years of experience in caring for dogs and horses, I approach pet sitting with an understanding of animal behavior and a compassionate approach. Whether your furry friend is a playful pup or an anxious companion, I use positive reinforcement techniques to create a safe and nurturing environment. I have a friendly 4-year-old golden retriever, Lily, who gets along wonderfully with other dogs, providing a perfect playmate for your pup. I regularly care for friends and family's pets, and have watched dogs recovering from surgeries and in need of medication. Our spacious 2.5-acre property offers plenty of room for dogs to roam, explore, and enjoy playtime in a safe setting. From daily walks to playing fetch in the yard, your pets will be in loving hands. Having used Rover to book pet care for my dog, Lily, I understand that leaving your dog can be nerve-wracking. Let me provide the peace of mind you deserve while you're away, knowing your beloved dog is receiving top-notch care! Working from home allows me to spend time with your dog throughout the day and attend to them as much as needed. I walk every day and am happy to take your pup along with me if they love walks too! With 2.5 acres and a super friendly, welcoming golden retriever, Lily, I'd love to welcome your dog into our home. We want your dog(s) to cozy in and feel at home, and welcome them sleeping in our room or in their crate, however they are most comfortable.
“My dog (Leo) was very happy at Ellen’s. She kept updating me with pictures of Leo. Ellen’s house has a yard which allowed for Leo to run around, which he loves to do. I would definitely recommend Ellen!”
About: Caring for your pets while you’re away brings me so much joy because I genuinely love animals and understand how important they are to your family. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s daily walks, in-home visits, or overnight care, I’ll ensure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for. Your peace of mind is my priority, and I’m committed to being someone you can fully trust with your furry friends. Im very flexible with scheduling due to my children being in school. I absolutely adore all animals and look forward to the extra cuddles and love while my girls are away! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily schedule, allowing me to dedicate the time and attention your furry friends deserve while ensuring they stay happy, healthy, and loved. I have a lead in my backyard for my dog. He is crate trained but hasn’t stepped foot in one for years. He snuggles in our bed at night and absolutely loves our children and cat. My cat is 15 years old and hides out majority of the days. He doesn’t mind other pets and only wakes to eat and use the restroom( he’s an old man♥️)

“Kara was amazing when I needed a last minute dog walker. She came everyday on time and communicated when she picked Moose up and dropped him off. She even wrote notes about the walk! I could not have found a better/sweeter friend for Moose that week! Thank you Kara!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and there's nothing I enjoy more than making pets feel safe, loved, and right at home while their families are away. To give some insight on my experience, I have volunteered at my local humane society, caring for both dogs and cats. I then spent some time as a kennel attendant at a dog boarding facility where I cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, I had a shih-tzu that I raised and currently have an alaskan klee kai that is my soul dog. I LOVE both dogs and cats, they are such a light in this world. My friend and I used to dog sit for her neighbor once a month, and I dog walked for my neighbor every day for two years, as well as dog sat for her whenever she went on vacation! I know I may not have experience on this app specifically, but I have lots of experience in real life and I would be a great fit for your needs! I’m currently looking for a part time job so I can go back to college, and my friend suggested I check out rover, which I LOVE the idea of! I will also be moving to Lansing very soon! I can crate your animals if needed, take them on walks, feed and water them, play with them, snuggle on them, give them medication, whatever you need I can do as long as it’s safe to do it! Thank you for your consideration:)
About: I’ve had animals my entire life. From dogs to hermit crabs, kitties to turtles. But dogs have always had my heart the most! (🤫 don’t tell the others) I am a very calm and steady person and have always had a comforting effect on animals and people alike. Caregiving is something I come by naturally. So when I’m given the responsibility to care for someone, I take that very seriously. And I enjoy it! I will make sure your precious fur child feels safe, loved, and has so much fun! And I’m always happy to provide pictures and updates of their adventures along the way! I have a very flexible schedule at the moment. I’m available at most times during the day and able to move around my own schedule when needed. I love taking them for walks, playing with them and giving them lots of attention. I would very much appreciate knowing what your routine is, or what your expectations are for your pets care. I will stick as closely as possible to what your fur baby knows and loves.
About: I have always been around animals my whole life and grew up with multiple pets, caring for them since they were babies up until they were seniors. I’m 25 years old, going to school at Eastern Michigan University to become an elementary teacher. I’m very active and love to be outdoors! I love and treat my pets as if they were family and plan to do the same for your fur babies! I‘ve cat sat for my aunt and uncle and have pet sat for my friends and family as well as past clients on rover, and have worked on a farm in the past caring for horses, barn kitties and dogs. I really enjoy caring for all animals and i’m looking forward to care for yours as if they were my own! I’m a fast learner and very dependable so if your pets need any special treatments you could just let me know and show me how you approach it and I will do the same! My late St. Bernard was on heart medication so I know how to trick even the stubbornest dogs to take their pills or eat if they’re old and don’t have much of an appetite as they used to. I have recently moved to the Howell area and live in an apartment, however my complex is super dog friendly and my apartment has a big (unfenced) yard behind it (would have to keep your dogs leashed if they’re boarded here) with many trails! I’m looking forward to hearing from you and taking care of your furry friends 😊🐾 My schedule is very open for the summer, since I’m on summer break before I begin student teaching in late August. I’m available Monday-Friday, as well as some weekends! I frequently dog sit for my friends and family, with most of my experience being with dogs between a year-fourteen years old, and same goes for cats. When I enter someone’s home I make sure to never approach their pets and let them approach me (because I know it can be nerve-wracking for them to meet a new person at times). I usually let dogs out every hour or more if needed and enjoy going for walks with them or playing fetch or any other games to keep them entertained. I follow the instructions given by the parents of our fluffy friends very closely, feed times, medicine times, treat times, etc. If I need to I usually set reminders so I have a backup reminder if needed. Along with caring for their pets I also clean up after them, litter boxes, toys, their outside duties, and whatever the pet parent instructs. I currently just moved to the Howell area and have not gotten a pet of my own yet, however I can pet sit your pets at my apartment if they’re potty trained, or can take care of them at your house as well!
About: I have owned cats my entire life and our family currently have 6 cats (2 are my daughter’s). We have a Miniature Australian Shepard named Rooney! In the past our family had a Brittany Spaniel named Sydney and a Maltese named Jeter. They have all taught me something different, not to mention that just when you think you KNOW everything about animals, you learn something new! 🤣🐾 When it comes to experience, I have my 18-year old daughter to thank for introducing me to the pet care field and helping to grow my experience with farm animals (horses, goats, pigs, donkeys, sheep, chickens, ducks, and the occasional stray barn cat🥰🐾) as well as cats and dogs. Going along with Emma made me realize that this is something I want to do all of the time! So whether you have cats, dogs, caged animals/reptiles, or more, I’d love to help take care of them while you are away. Giving you peace of mind while making your pets feel safe and loved is my number one priority. I take pride in being a kind, honest, and trustworthy adult that would love to earn the loyalty of your commitment as one of your regular pet sitters. Your pets are as important to me as they are to you while you are away. I will check, recheck and then check again to make certain every step has been followed to ensure that your loved ones are well cared for, while looking out for anything that might be “off”. You can’t be too careful and sometimes an animals’ “signs” for need or distress can be quite subtle. So I never just pop in and out, but rather I facilitate well-visits! That means carefully following your detailed instructions and care notes. I always welcome as much input from you, along with a Meet and Greet prior to caring for your fur babies, so you can introduce us, help create trust, and provide me with the important details of your day-to-day routine. This helps me to best provide routine and structure (mixed with lots of spoiling and extra treats) for your little ones. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies! 🥰🐾💝 I work full time as a teacher and tutor during the week, but Friday evening and weekends are wide open for helping you take a weekend getaway or enjoying an all-day getaway without your fur baby being left alone. I know how hard it is for me to leave my pets. The few trips I’ve taken were only possible because of caring neighbors that watched our cats/dog and sent lots of pictures for reassurance! ❤️ I am a rule-follower and will use your detailed directions to take care of your fur/feather/hair babies just as you describe! It’s my main goal to make your pets feel safe, loved and cared for while giving you peace of mind so your absence is a treat for both of you! 🎉🧁🍭🦴🍖
About: In our home every dog is a priority to us. We schedule activities around their needs and energy levels. We love to play outside, go for walks around our neighborhood and snuggle before bed. Our puppy is very high energy and loves to make new friends. The dogs will be in a safe environment, with a fenced yard, and will be given a bed time snack! We allow animals on all furniture within our home and in our bed to sleep at night, we also have a pallet dog bed available in our room. We are available most nights and weekends and are willing to keep your pup for an extended period of time. We would love schedule a day to meet you and your dog soon!
About: We are a just a loving couple with a couple of cats and dogs. Our farm is ready to share the love with your animals and take them on an adventure when you are on your adventure. I’m Jack and I stay home to take care of my family. I live in the country with a big yard and I love animals. My girlfriend walks and takes care of animals by my side. There is always someone to love them and someone there for your animals needs. We have a big field for pets. Two dogs that roam as they please. They are trained to stay in the yard. One pet must be tethered, he gets 100 ft of chain to adventure. We live on dirt roads and have plenty of space to run all the energy out of your pups. We also can care for quiet and gentle pets. We accommodate whoever visits our home, the Hideout.
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was little. My parents got a puppy when I was born and we grew up together. I now have two fur babies of my own, a dog named Nala and a cat named Barbie. I currently work a full time job as a preschool teacher so I have time to care for your fur babies on the weekend the most or on the weekdays at 5pm. It would be best suited for me to care your babies at their homes. I would make sure to get a good idea of what their daily routine looks like at home so I can keep them feeling comfortable and relaxed.
About: My name is Alexis I am a 21 year old animal lover. I worked at the humane society of Huron valley and have for about 1 year previously and previously worked at a boarding facility for cats and dogs.My current job is a vet receptionist/ vet assistant at VCA of Hamburg. I have experience with just about every kind of animal that you could keep as a pet. I have experience feeding them, cleaning their kennels/cages, medicating the dogs (we do not medicate the cats where I work), walking them and some small bits of clicker/leash training as well. I would love to care for your fur baby! My availability is I am free the full day on Tuesdays and Sundays otherwise it would be around my work schedule . Every other day of the week it would have to be after I get off of work, typically I am off between the 6pm-7pm range. It is my full time job to take care of animals, it is something I have always had a passion for and I was lucky enough to make a career out of it. I would not be able to provide boarding as I live in a small apartment with 2 cats who are not fond of dogs. In your home though I am willing to pretty much do whatever you would like, I’m comfortable crating animals, walking them, cleaning up after them….etc
“Alexandria is great with our two very different dogs! Herbie is older and loud and Lola is young and energetic but quiet. Even in the current deep freeze she got them out for me (despite Herbie’s protests)! Thank you 😊”
About: I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and communicative. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I focus on providing consistent care, following routines closely, and keeping owners informed every step of the way. I work in education with summers free and much flexibility. I am happy to provide care at the time of day your pets need it! My home offers a safe and clean environment for pets. I have 3 cats who get along with other animals. In others’ homes, I offer respect for the space and reliability to follow instructions.

I’d highly recommend her!”
