Highly-rated overnight sitters - Harper Woods
“First time booking with Angela and it won’t be our last! She was incredibly kind and considerate when taking on Wade. The meet & greet went great and the stay was even better. It’s clear she cares about animals and their needs. Wade had a great time! Great communication throughout his stay and very accommodating! Highly recommend.”
“Nia sent pictures and a report of how my fur baby was doing everyday. She was quick to respond to any communication I sent her. She was caring and loving. Her home was very inviting and pet friendly. I would give her a 5 star review!”

I work 100% remote from home., my yard has a 6 foot privacy fence am I Home is very dog friendly. I am also experienced in taking care of diabetic dogs, including testing and injections twice a day, monitoring food and making sure that all the dogs under my hair get daily walks, and lots of love. I work 100% remote. My day doesn’t start until nine, which allows me to spend time in the morning either playing with the dogs going for walks. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood around those days that the weather doesn’t permit us to go out I have what we call beauty time.. I walk my dog every evening for at least 30 minutes and if the day is nice, we try to get some time in during lunch as well My house and backyard are very pet friendly. I am not someone who gets upset if there’s an accident after all they’re pets, stuff’s gonna happen. I have a 6 foot privacy fence in my backyard. My dog prefers to sleep outside, but for the dogs that I’m sitting I prefer they be inside with me.
“This was my first time boarding my dog, so I was a little nervous going into it—but Steven made the entire experience so smooth and comforting. From the very beginning, he was amazing with communication and kept me updated the whole time with messages and pictures of Sir, which really helped ease my mind. It was clear that Steven genuinely cared and took great care of my dog. Sir looked so happy and comfortable in every photo, and I could tell he was having a great time during his stay. I’m so grateful for how kind, professional, and attentive Steven was. He made us feel completely at ease, and Sir truly enjoyed his first boarding experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again—highly recommend!”
“Samantha and Zachary are fantastic sitters! My dog Stella had a great time and made two new friends in Krypto and Bailey. Provided daily photos and videos of Stella during her stay and they were always quick to respond to all my messages. Would highly recommend!”
“Gerrie Marie and her hubby are so friendly AND they were great with our 50# unruly toddler (aka BIG puppy) for 5 days!!! Snoopy will definitely be visiting them again! ??”
“Natalia was very nice and adjusted with our timings for drop off and pick up, She also kept us updated with photo and message of milo’s stay which gave us a relief. I am definitely booking with her again.”
“Rachael was truly an angel sent from heaven. She accepted my last minute request for a two week stay, and was so kind and compassionate. I appreciated how she did not blow up my phone while I was away, but still notified me of important things. I could tell that my dog had an absolute blast with her family. She is my #1 sitter from now on whenever I go out of town. Thank you a million, Rachael.❤️”
“Great sitters and my doggie and he looked to be having a marvelous time! Lots of communication from them, the entire time…which I loved. ❤️ I will absolutely book with them again.”
“Dawn had our dog over Thanksgiving week. We got lots of updates and photos of our dog throughout the week. Dawn was very quick to respond and we would not hesitate to have her family dog sit for us again.”
“Jessica is lovely, she was patient and friendly, and sent tons of photos and puppy updates throughout my doggo's stay. Would recommend and will def hit her up for future boarding needs!”
“Suzanne took such wonderful care of my dog, Jax. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time ever using Rover let alone leaving Jax with anyone but a family member. I couldn’t be happier with how well taken care of he was.”
About: Hi, my name is Carissa! I am experienced in caring for many animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and even farm animals. I owned an operated an open-play dog boarding and daycare facility in Southern California for five years (from 2014 through 2019) serving over 300 furry clients- all different sizes and personalities. (My old Facebook page with reviews can be seen on facebook by searching CarissaBennettCanineCare). Since moving back to my home-state of Michigan I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years in a general practice clinic, and am able to confidently provide first aid, as well as administer oral, topical, and injectable medications to pets in my care. Additionally, I am comfortable with caring for senior and special needs pets. I love all animals like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furbaby while you are away! I am available all day Fridays-Mondays. Perfect for long weekend trips! I do work to Tuesdays-Thursdays, 8am-5pm, but I am available in the evening on Thursdays for drop-off if needed (for an early Friday morning departure, etc.). I am available for drop-in visits Friday-Monday as well, and can also schedule drop-in visits between 6-8 pm Tuesday-Thursdays. Your pet would have tons of love in our home, with access to all living spaces and our large fenced-in yard. We currently have 1 indoor/outdoor kitty, but our chocolate lab recently passed away, so no pups in the home at this time.
“Katie did a great job with our two dogs. Our dogs aren’t very social and by the end of their stay, were as comfortable as they are at home! She sent updates multiple times a day and answered any questions we had. We are happy to have found someone who cares as much about our pups as we do!”
“Cody was so great with our golden retriever, Snoop! His dog seemed to get along well with Snoop and it was great to know he was in a good environment being well taken care of!”
“Tonks has stayed with Katherine and her family twice now, and I couldn't be happier with how well she's been taken care of. She always comes home super happy from Katherine's. The kids in the home are very sweet and great with dogs. Katherine sends pictures during the stay of Tonks out walking and playing. She even got Tonks treats and an awesome sweater when she stayed over the holidays. I'll definitely be booking again anytime I need a Rover sitter. Thanks Katherine!!”
“Paris has been wonderful boarding my cat last minute and has been very accommodating to his needs! I've had to extend his visit and Paris is working on socializing him for me! Also sends great pictures with updates daily, I couldn't have asked for better! Maximus is a very happy visitor 😊”

“Joshua did several days of drop-in visits for our four cats and we couldn’t be happier! I appreciated that he took the time to get to know each of the cats and their unique personalities, including a very shy cat, and had no problem administering a daily medication! He is very communicative and attentive and I loved the photos and detailed notes after each drop in visit! When I got home the cats were calm and relaxed, and the house was clean and tidy. He even took the time to clean up the litter around the boxes, which I am so appreciative of! I highly recommend Joshua to anyone looking for a responsible and kind cat sitter! We’ll be rebooking with him in the future!!”
“I am so pleased that I found Evelyn on Rover. This was the first time I have used the service so I was alittle apprehensive. From my first meeting Evelyn, put all my fears to rest. I am so grateful for her care and attention to the details. My pets were well cared for and the communication just added to the peace of mind knowing I could trust Her with my precious fur babies. I will definitely be booking her again! Thank you Evelyn great work!”
“Wow Megan is amazing! So responsive, so helpful, and so wonderful to our lil clementine!! Will be 1000% using her again and sharing her info with all my friends and family ❤️”
“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.”
“Paris was fantastic with our girls. They really seemed comfortable with her, which is very important! They are not around a lot of people that they don't know, but she made them feel at ease. I would highly recommend her if you want a cat person, not a dog person who will watch cats. There is a big difference! She interacted with them on their terms, which is what most cats want. She really eased my mind about leaving my girls, and we will definitely use her again.”
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.
“Mary took great care of Gino and Gus - I loved the little updates and it’s obvious that Gino has a new girlfriend. I never once worried about either of our cats - Gus is very shy about new people and while he didn’t make an appearance, it was never concerning given how happy Gino looked. Thank you so much, Mary!”
“Laura is an A+ pet sitter. She was wonderful with my two very shy cats. She is very conscientious and reliable, and obviously loves animals. I would not hesitate to hire her again to care for my pets.”
“Heather has watched our two cats twice now. The first time was last year for week/end, and she just watched them again this weekend. We’ve already booked her for a longer trip this spring, which probably says everything on its own. The first time we booked her, we were in a pinch and relied on her glowing reviews. I’m so glad we did because they were very accurate - she is kind, intuitive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in the well-being of the animals she cares for. She asks thorough questions to make sure she understands every aspect of care and double-checks feeding routines, medical details, and emergency contacts. It’s clear she takes the responsibility seriously and wants to do things the right way. Her communication is always prompt and reassuring. She sends plenty of photos and updates, which gives us so much peace of mind. Our cats are generally friendly, but they truly seem to like her and feel comfortable around her, which says a lot. Even on short trips, she is attentive about refilling food and water and making sure everything is in order. She’s local, reliable, and charges a fair price for the level of care she provides. Most importantly, I trust her. I know she genuinely cares about our cats when she’s with them, and that makes all the difference. I would confidently recommend her to anyone in the area looking for compassionate, dependable pet care.”
“Jessica took on care for 3 cats and 4 kittens with medication and has done a SUPERB job. I could tell from the pictures that she was spending time with our cats playing, and getting the former stray more acclimated to humans. We were nervous to leave the kittens and mama so early on but they were in good hands with Jessica.”
“I highly recommend Jillian’s services. She worked wonders on my cats that were scared of strangers and had them all out of hiding before the end of our trip. She did an excellent job communicating with me throughout our trip. All of her pictures were an added bonus. She also did a great job keeping the litter and bowls clean. It was such a relief knowing my fur babies were in good hands!”
“Genevieve cat sit for us last summer, and we were excited to see her offering drop in visits again this summer! She took great care of our cat, was very communicative, easy to work with, and provided great updates for us to let us know our cat was well looked after while we were away. We would love to have Genevieve cat sit for us again!”
“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!”
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.
“Hannah took great care of our kitties and bearded dragon! She was on time, and made sure she laid eyes on everyone. She sent pics and was very good at communicating with me from first contact. Highly recommend and will certainly re-book. Thanks for the peace of mind while we were gone, Hannah!”
“My kitties appreciate Chetoya’s visits. They’re super shy but will come peek out and eat when they see her❤️❤️ She is responsible and always responds quickly. Thank you!”

“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ben was timely, communicative and respectful. My 2 dogs can be a little raucous with short visits and he seemed to handle it with ease. Great price too! I will use him any and every time I can. A+”

“Megan is extremely nice and welcoming and provides great care. My dog is always super excited to visit her place! Due to my dogs anxious nature, she often leaves new places stressed. However, whenever she comes home from Megan's she is relaxed and happy. Do book Megan if you want a great care experience for your pet!!”

“Dawn and her family were amazing caretakers of our dog while we were in McMinnville. We were working long hours so it was important to have someone we could trust and depend on to be there for our hound, and Dawn was AMAZING for us by being 100% timely, totally dependable, flexible, and super communicative. We had Dawn come to our place to take our dog on walks and also did pet sitting at her place, and would highly recommend both options! We’re so thankful for Dawn and couldn’t recommend her enough…you’ll be in good hands!”
About: I currently am a full-time Rover sitter. I have experience working in an animal physical therapy center where I treated special needs dogs and cats. Throughout my life span, I have owned 15 pets: 5 lizards, 8 fish, a hedgehog, a cat, 6 dogs, a scorpion, and a guinea pig. I studied animal science with a concentration in animal biology at MSU, following the pre-vet track. I’ve yet to meet an animal that I don’t get along with- it’s like we just click. I’m a very caring person that loves pets! If I could, I’d be a zookeeper. A lot of things I know about pet care I have learned in a Companion Animal Biology and Management class, from stress to diseases to development, etc. There couldn’t be a more perfect friend to watch your pal! Hope to meet you soon (: ! I am a full-time Rover sitter. Aside from Rover, I am a vet assistant at an animal PT rehabilitation center. To my best ability, I will give your pet my undivided attention. I’m rarely too busy to leave them unattended. I always ask clients for feeding and potty schedules and adhere to their pets’ needs. Safety is top priority, and your pet is in good hands. Upon request with unfenced yards, leash walking available.
“Tara is great! She is super attentive and communicative, which means so much to me as an anxious pet parent. I knew Marlon was in good care even though he might be nervous. She took her time with him and did all she could to help him feel at home.”
“I dropped my puppy off with Sarah for the day and she was amazing! She sent pictures of my puppy and took great care of her! I would definitely trust Sarah with any of my pets any day! Thank you!”
About: Hi! I’m Sandra, a reliable and caring pet lover who treats every animal like family. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a helping hand, I’m here to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. ❤️ About Me I have a natural love for animals and a strong sense of responsibility.

I am home full-time and I work from home . So I am able to attend to all the animals with love throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard. I have a doodle that will keep your dog company.

“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.”

“Kylie took both of my large dogs for a walk - she was great! She communicated promptly, arrived on time and treated my dogs/property with care. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for dog walking services.”
About: Hi! I’m Paris — a substitute teacher, lifelong pet lover, and proud cat mom of two playful kittens, Lilith & Zephyr 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for as if they’re my own. Whether it’s a dog who loves long walks, a cat who just wants cuddles, or a nervous pet who needs extra patience, I tailor care to each animal’s personality and comfort level. My clients describe me as attentive, communicative, and trustworthy — I provide photo updates, detailed messages, and genuinely enjoy spending time with every pet I meet. You’ll never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing while you’re away! 💼 My Schedule As a substitute teacher, I create my own schedule — which means I can adjust my availability for pet care. I typically work 4–8 hour school shifts with breaks that allow me to check in, walk, or drop in on pets during the day. Need round-the-clock or overnight care? I can absolutely provide that — I just ask for notice in advance, as 24-hour care may require adjusted pricing 💰 Rates & Expectations Rover’s listed prices reflect my base rates for standard care. Rates may adjust slightly depending on: • The number of pets • Travel distance • After-hours or weekend bookings • Medication or special-needs care • Holiday or extended-stay requests All rates are before Rover’s 20% platform fee. My goal is to ensure top-tier, stress-free care that’s priced fairly for both of us. 💬 Why Choose Me I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pets. My goal is to create peace of mind while making sure your pets are loved, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Each booking is personalized — whether that means an extra bedtime cuddle, a longer evening walk, or slow introductions for shy pets. ❤️ Let’s Connect If you’re looking for reliable, flexible, and genuine care, I’d love to chat! Send me a message with your pet’s routine, quirks, or favorite toys — I’m happy to customize care around their needs. I work as a substitute teacher and I make my own schedule. As long as I have at least 2-3 days before a booking I can switch things around to be with your pet. I typically work 4-8 hours and have small breaks where I can leave the school and check in with pets twice a day while I am working. If they need round the clock care, I can make that happen but as it interferes with my day job that would require further conversation as far as pricing. I play with animals, I’ll walk them, bathe them, give them medication if needed. I treat every pet I’m lucky enough to have placed in my care as my own. Anything you need or want for me to do for your four legged family member I would be more than happy to accommodate!
About: I have over 25 years of experience caring for, loving and training various dogs and cats of all ages and sizes.

I’ve worked with dogs and cats of many different ages, breeds, and temperaments over the years and have experience with potty, obedience and leash training, as well as caring for senior animals or administering medication etc. I love every pet as if they were my own!! I work fully remote so am entirely flexible throughout my day, including nights and weekends. I am able to accommodate the needs of the pet whether it involves a quick stop or an extended stay. I will always make sure your pet is secured in a fenced yard or on a leash. I don’t even like to leave pets unattended in the yard without keeping an eye on them. In the house it is important that boundaries are adhered to if there are certain areas off limits, and crate trained dogs are secured in their crate when left at home.
“Jessica is fabulous! I’m kind of a “crazy dog mom” but knowing my dog, Foss, is in Jessica’s care puts me at ease during the day. She sends me lots of pictures on her visits and, most importantly, I can tell she truly loves Foss and all animals and Foss loves/adores her just as much. Thank you, Jessica!”
“Heather was awesome! Rocket was super excited to meet her during the first visit and I knew it will be smooth sailing the rest of the way. Great pictures and videos during walks, good communication to let me know how everything went and very quick to respond. Will recommend Heather to anyone that needs their pet walked or watched for a period of time. Thanks for all your help. Very much appreciated.”
“We’ve been so happy to find Caelan! She communicates fast and friendly, is reliable, and has given us great peace of mind knowing our new energetic pup is getting activity through the day. She is attentive to our doggos needs and has gone above and beyond. We will definitely be booking with her more in the future!”
About: I am a dog lover who currently owns 3 dogs, a terrier mix, a standard poodle, and a Doberman. My husband and I love animals and have grown up around different types of pets, which is why dog sitting is a perfect fit for me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I acquired my love for animals from my father. Since before I was born, he has always owned a dog. The first dog I remember having was a Husky named Brandon. We named him Brandon because of the dog on "Punky Brewster" and I must have been only around 4 years old! 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.
“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 :)”
“Megan helped out giving our big baby his walks this week. She was great and Bennie (our 100 lb rottie) quicklyfell in love. He was looking out the window longingly for her by day 2. Thank you, Megan!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I have availablility all summer for walks, potty breaks, and puppy help. Would love to help! I’m a teacher so I will be home and available all summer. I have a lot of flexibility to help with whatever a pet owner may need. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly 7 year old female labrador. Our household has 5 people and all over the age of 18.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, with 7 years of experience caring for dogs. While I don’t have a dog of my own I have two bunnies I adore and, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after pets for friends and family, gaining experience with various breeds and temperaments. From puppies to senior dogs, I’m skilled in providing personalized care, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I am a recent college grad with a BFA in Fashion Design and Merchandising from Wayne State University. I am currently living in Grosse Pointe Michigan. I as I am a part time nanny, have a relatively flexible schedule, so depending on what your pet’s needs are I would love to accommodate and be of service to you and your pet.🫶 Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. I ensure pets are always supervised, and I tailor the care to meet each pet’s unique needs. I’m mindful of your pet’s routine and create a safe, cozy space for them to feel at ease. With my flexible schedule and experience, I’m able to offer attention and care that’s both nurturing and reliable, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of family and friend’s pets ever since I can remember. I have experience with a multitude of household animals with different needs! I have fostered and found homes for 8 pets! I have experience with senior pets and administering medications as needed. I will be available most evenings and weekends. I work a full time job during the morning and afternoon during the week but would be happy to help outside of those hours and potentially in the morning/lunch time on my remote days. Every pet will be treated as I do my own! They will have all the belly scratches, love and attention they need. I am happy to groom, play fetch, and whatever else will make them happy and healthy!
About: I’ve always loved animals, growing up with dogs and other pets. I will play with or take your dog for a walk whenever needed. I understand the unique needs of each pet and will provide them with the best care possible. I’m currently working remotely, so my schedule is very flexible. I can take your dog for a walk most days around noon or anytime after 5pm I won’t be able to care for your pet at my home, but have no problem coming to yours for a check in if needed.
About: Growing up I have loved animals and wanted to have a career with animals. Rover is just one way I can do that! Growing up I had a multiple animals that were childhood pets that I’ve adored. I am the type of person that will stop a stranger just to say hello to their furry friends! I enjoy dog sitting and meeting so many unique breeds and animals that I can form a bond with the animal and the owners! I love the experiences and becoming someone trustworthy to have as a repeat client! I currently work 4pm-10pm a few days out of the week. I have a bachelors in human sciences. I myself have threes dog and a cat that are all rescues. They are my spoiled little fur babies that get tons of cuddles, kisses, bark box toys, cat scratchers, etc. They love sleeping on the bed with us under the covers, head on pillow Lol! 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 chose to animal sit over my part time job. I want your pets to have the best care possible. If I ever have work I make sure it’s not longer than a few hours. 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.
“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.”

About: I have been rescuing dogs for almost 2 decades. Needless to say, I love dogs. I currently have a great Pyrenees and she would love Company. I work 100% remote from home., my yard has a 6 foot privacy fence am I Home is very dog friendly. I am also experienced in taking care of diabetic dogs, including testing and injections twice a day, monitoring food and making sure that all the dogs under my hair get daily walks, and lots of love. I work 100% remote. My day doesn’t start until nine, which allows me to spend time in the morning either playing with the dogs going for walks. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood around those days that the weather doesn’t permit us to go out I have what we call beauty time.. I walk my dog every evening for at least 30 minutes and if the day is nice, we try to get some time in during lunch as well My house and backyard are very pet friendly. I am not someone who gets upset if there’s an accident after all they’re pets, stuff’s gonna happen. I have a 6 foot privacy fence in my backyard. My dog prefers to sleep outside, but for the dogs that I’m sitting I prefer they be inside with me.
“This was my first time boarding my dog, so I was a little nervous going into it—but Steven made the entire experience so smooth and comforting. From the very beginning, he was amazing with communication and kept me updated the whole time with messages and pictures of Sir, which really helped ease my mind. It was clear that Steven genuinely cared and took great care of my dog. Sir looked so happy and comfortable in every photo, and I could tell he was having a great time during his stay. I’m so grateful for how kind, professional, and attentive Steven was. He made us feel completely at ease, and Sir truly enjoyed his first boarding experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again—highly recommend!”
“Samantha and Zachary are fantastic sitters! My dog Stella had a great time and made two new friends in Krypto and Bailey. Provided daily photos and videos of Stella during her stay and they were always quick to respond to all my messages. Would highly recommend!”
“Natalia was very nice and adjusted with our timings for drop off and pick up, She also kept us updated with photo and message of milo’s stay which gave us a relief. I am definitely booking with her again.”
“Rachael was truly an angel sent from heaven. She accepted my last minute request for a two week stay, and was so kind and compassionate. I appreciated how she did not blow up my phone while I was away, but still notified me of important things. I could tell that my dog had an absolute blast with her family. She is my #1 sitter from now on whenever I go out of town. Thank you a million, Rachael.❤️”

About: Hi, my name is Carissa! I am experienced in caring for many animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and even farm animals. I owned an operated an open-play dog boarding and daycare facility in Southern California for five years (from 2014 through 2019) serving over 300 furry clients- all different sizes and personalities. (My old Facebook page with reviews can be seen on facebook by searching CarissaBennettCanineCare). Since moving back to my home-state of Michigan I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years in a general practice clinic, and am able to confidently provide first aid, as well as administer oral, topical, and injectable medications to pets in my care. Additionally, I am comfortable with caring for senior and special needs pets. I love all animals like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furbaby while you are away! I am available all day Fridays-Mondays. Perfect for long weekend trips! I do work to Tuesdays-Thursdays, 8am-5pm, but I am available in the evening on Thursdays for drop-off if needed (for an early Friday morning departure, etc.). I am available for drop-in visits Friday-Monday as well, and can also schedule drop-in visits between 6-8 pm Tuesday-Thursdays. Your pet would have tons of love in our home, with access to all living spaces and our large fenced-in yard. We currently have 1 indoor/outdoor kitty, but our chocolate lab recently passed away, so no pups in the home at this time.
“Cody was so great with our golden retriever, Snoop! His dog seemed to get along well with Snoop and it was great to know he was in a good environment being well taken care of!”
“Tonks has stayed with Katherine and her family twice now, and I couldn't be happier with how well she's been taken care of. She always comes home super happy from Katherine's. The kids in the home are very sweet and great with dogs. Katherine sends pictures during the stay of Tonks out walking and playing. She even got Tonks treats and an awesome sweater when she stayed over the holidays. I'll definitely be booking again anytime I need a Rover sitter. Thanks Katherine!!”
“Paris has been wonderful boarding my cat last minute and has been very accommodating to his needs! I've had to extend his visit and Paris is working on socializing him for me! Also sends great pictures with updates daily, I couldn't have asked for better! Maximus is a very happy visitor 😊”
“Monica took very good care of my little guy all weekend. Seeing all the pictures throughout the weekend seemed like he was right at home and very comfortable with her and her family. She also was able to administer medication to him because of a last minute ear infection. Definitely will be booking future dog sitting with Monica in the future. Thanks Again!!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter in Whitley! Our dog, Pepper, had the best time and was so well cared for. The communication was fantastic, and we loved knowing she got to play with Ollie the whole time—they became the best of friends! We’ll absolutely have Pepper stay again. Highly recommend!”
“Both of our dogs had an amazing time at Kellie’s while we were out of town! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures during their stay and in every one we could see them having a great time with her dog and kids! We will definitely plan to use her again for any future trips 😊”
“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!”
“Amanda and her family took amazing care of Guinea! She was great with communication and sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay. Guinea came home happy and tired from all the playtime and attention. It’s clear he was treated like part of their family. Would absolutely recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a warm and reliable sitter!”
