“Kim was such a wonderful caretaker of my two boys! They had a great time with her, and I was so appreciative of the many photos and updates she provided me. I will definitely be returning!”

“Damoan was absolutely amazing during Bentley and Bear’s stay with her. She was attentive to the boys needs, especially Bentley and his medicine. She even made sure to keep me updated throughout the week with photos and updates about how they were doing. Highly recommend and will be booking with her again!”

“Love Fay, what a wonderful dog sitter, I’d trust Fay with my kids if I had any small children anymore. Fay was very caring, sent me photos around the clock of my dog’s activities which included long walks, napping, making friends with Fay’s dog. It was nice my dog Bao had a friend for a while in her care. I’d rebook with Fay in a heartbeat. Wonderful person.”

“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!”

“Sydney and Luna had an excellent stay! They were very spoiled with lots of love and attention. We received pictures of their fun twice a day! We highly recommend Jason and Kristen!”

“Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.”


“Ellen was absolutely fantastic taking care of my 7 month old puppy. JJ was staying with her for an extended amount of time and she still kept me updated with pictures and comments on a daily basis. Even as JJ is still in training, Ellen was extremely patient and still made things very easy for me when I was gone. There was also almost always one or more dogs there at any given time to keep JJ company. Her fenced in backyard is an added bonus as all dogs staying with her have free range to explore and run around. I will 100% be booking again in the near future! Nothing but praise for Ellen!”

“Rose came home happy and tired. She had the best time with Chris and family. He sent lots of photos over the weekend which was very appreciated. We look forward to using their dog sitting services in the future. Thanks again for taking care of our girl!”

“I cannot recommend Olivia enough! I will definitely keep having her watch my boy for me. We just moved across the country and have never had our dog stay with anyone he didnt already know so we were extremely nervous, but not only was she incredibly kind and patient with the booking process, Olivia even accommodated our last minute schedule mess up and took our boy in a day early. We got pictures every single day and a text on how he was doing. Got our boy back today and its so easy to tell he had a good time. Thank you olivia!!”

“Michelle is an amazing host who clearly loves dogs and cats! She is thoughtful, an excellent communicator, and a true animal lover. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone, and we look forward to having our beloved Polly stay with her again in the future. Highly, highly recommended!”

“Kasey was watching my lab who has high anxiety, and epilepsy. I was gone for a week during a holiday and my normal sitter fell though; Kasey really saved us. She sent me either a picture or a video or both, every of him. He was well cared for and I appreciate everything she did for us. I could not have been more pleased with her, and her care for my dog in her home.”
“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”

“So glad to have found Rishi and Victoria. Tino enjoys his stays there. We started with day sitting first and then overnights. They are always flexible and accommodating. Most important Tino gets lots of attention and neither of us have to feel anxious.”


“Lauren is GREAT!!!!! She provided care at her home for our dog DEXTER. She sent videos about the care status and sent texts to keep us informed. Lauren has a charming well kept home. The experience left us completely satisfied!!!! YAY...”

“We are so grateful for Cheyenne's care of our cat! We loved getting the reports each day with a photo. Our cat can be a bit feisty and doesn't always warm up to people, but Cheyenne connected with him. Will definitely use Cheyenne again and highly recommend her!”


“Kristy really helped us out last minute when we needed someone to take care of our cat for a short trip. She is extremely attentive to our cat’s feeding arrangements, and made sure he got the proper food and water intake due to his condition. She was flexible with our schedule, communicative on a daily basis, and punctual to our meet and greet. I would absolutely request Kristy’s availability for all our future pet-sitting needs and would recommend her to any of our friends and family.”


“Lauren is an exceptional pet sitter! I got constant photos and updates for my two cats while away on my honeymoon, and felt fully confident while I was away that they were being looked after with so much care and attention.”


“Priscena was absolutely wonderful with my cat! She is incredibly caring, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. I could tell that she really cared about pet and enjoyed spending time with him, which made me feel so much more comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent me updates and pictures every day, so I always knew how he was doing. She was also super flexible and accommodating when I needed to change the drop-off time, which I really appreciated. Priscena is such a kind and responsible cat sitter, and I would absolutely trust her with my pet again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for and love their cat!”

“Kimberly did a great job. She was prompt and kept me well informed on how my babies were doing, including photos. I would highly recommend her services and I would definitely schedule her again.”


About: I’ve had cats my entire life! Cats are my favorite animal! I love how they have their own personalities! I’ve dealt with cats with health issues and that have taken medications.

About: Hello! My name is Jenn and I am a professional pet caregiver and mom dedicated to keeping your pet safe and happy.

I am also happy to provide photo updates. I look forward to meeting and providing the best care for your pet!
“Natalie was so great! We were out of town for almost 2 weeks, and every day she sent us pictures (sometimes multiple) of our kitty. It was so clear that our cat loved her from the pictures and I think he was even a little disappointed when we came home lol. Would definitely recommend Natalie!”


“Came at time requested every morning! Kept me in the loop with any concerns/questions he had. My three cats and fish were well taken care of when we were on our trip! Will for sure be booking again.”


“Emily is very professional on time. Great with animals and overall a very kind person. I would recommend her to anyone when she’s in the area. I will be going through her again. Thank you, Emily.”


“Elizabeth was great! Very attentive and communicative throughout the stay. She came to spend some time and care for my cat just after we said goodbye to our other cat earlier that weekend. She was very empathetic and kind to our situation. I’ve had so many issues with finding quality care through rover, and it was such a relief to find someone who I can trust in. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thanks, Elizabeth!”


About: As a cat parent for nearly 10 years, I know how much trust it takes to leave your cat in someone else’s care. I’m also the friend who happily volunteers to check in on everyone’s cats when they’re traveling, working long days, or just need an extra helping hand. I’m comfortable with different personalities, from social cats who want all the attention to shy or independent cats who need a little extra patience and space. During drop-in visits, I’m happy to follow your cat’s normal routine as closely as possible. Depending on their needs, visits can include feeding, refreshing food and water, cleaning litter boxes, administering medications when appropriate, playtime, treats, brushing, and plenty of pets and cuddles.

“Fay did an excellent job taking care of my two kitties. This was the first time I have ever used rover and she put my mind right at ease and let me check in on them as much as I needed to. She helped them get acclimated and treated them like her own. I would definitely recommend her!”


“Michael is seriously awesome. From the moment he walked in for the meet & greet, it was obvious I’d made the right choice! He was so comfortable, caring, and loving towards my teenage kitten right away and it made me feel so at ease leaving her in his hands for a few days!! Even when there was a mix up with access to the house, Michael was so proactive, attentive, and flexible! I was beyond grateful. I seriously cannot recommend him enough as a pet sitter and all around wonderful human!!”


“Giada was truly amazing! She was our first Rover experience and it couldn’t have gone more smoothly! She was not only very kind and friendly, but she also kept us up-to-date with daily check-in updates and photos. We were able to enjoy our vacation fully knowing our cat was in good hands!”

“Deborah did a wonderful job with a drop in visit with my older dog, Teddy. He warmed up to her right away. I also appreciate Deborah’s quick responses to texts and her communication while she did her visit. I will definitely book with Deborah again.”

“Ellen is super responsive and gets back to you right away! We recently moved into town and needed a sitter with one week notice. Ellen set up a meet and greet prior to our daycare date with us as soon as possible. Kiwi came back happy and tired! Ellen provided photos and updates throughout the day too!”

“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!”


About: (Leave a review if you can!)⭐️ I’ve been a dog and cat girl my whole life. From learning patience with young dogs at the age of 5 weeks old, to attending to a 14 -year-old dog, I have open-handedly experienced what it is like dealing with dogs of all ages. I have also dealt with the sassy teenager phase from both dogs and cats. When they are bored, they will make it known. The biggest take I have learned from taking care of dogs and cats is that they won’t always be on your timeline. You have to be extremely patient and take time to train them and be there for them. I’m currently working part-time Monday 9am-5pm, and every other Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3pm-7pm. I am going to school but I mainly take online classes, so I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they need. My schedule is flexible and my boyfriend also lives with me and helps me so your pet won’t get bored! He’s home during the periods I am out so overall my schedule is free. I have a fenced in mini pet park next to my apartment. Your furry companion will get all of the exercise he/she needs! My apartment is very cozy and safe, only smaller pets are allowed so there won’t be any issue with other pet owner neighbors.
“Deborah was amazing with our 1 year old Labrador! Perfect home with fenced in yard for lots of playtime with her own pup. The two dogs were perfect playmates and even took a neighborhood walk! Highly recommended for a caring, loving home for your pet's care.”

“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.”

“Vitoria & Rishi are nothing but AMAZING. Our pup leonidas loves spending time at their doggie day care! They provide excellent care. I’d like to mention for all those dog parents out there looking for a place for your own fur baby, this will be it ! They welcome Leo as their own (: Now on my 3rd booking and will continue to use them when needed. Thank you !!!!”

“Makayla was awesome! Extremely professional- very calm demeanor and patient. She sent plenty of pics and videos and was very accessible and communicative. Really appreciated her taking care of Yeti last minute today. He had s great time! Highly recommend 👍 Thank you, Makayla! You’re a lifesaver 🙌”

“We are the first timer as we are new to this place with no reference. We took a decision to go with Dustin and Sarah with our gut feeling and it turned out to be such an amazing experience. They are extremely welcoming and treated my pet like their own family member. I will be definitely recommending them as a great people to take care of your pet.”

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

“Jason and Kristen have taken such great care of our dog Eddie. He usually has separation anxiety, but always RUNS to their door to be played with and cared for by this family. My requests and quirks are respected, photos are sent and communication response is as close to immediate as one can be. I rest easily knowing my dog is in responsible, caring hands!!”

“Kasey was very attentive and sent lots of pics and videos while we were away. She was also very flexible about the booking in general. She is very experienced professionally and I was comfortable leaving Bella there. Definitely will be rebooking.”

“Susan was such a wonderful puppy sitter for ginger! I can tell ginger really enjoyed her time 😊 we would recommend Susan to anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will definitely be back! Much appreciated!”


About: Had dogs and cats since I was a kid. Currently have 2 senior cats of my own. Home often and open to frequent walks.

“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!”

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs throughout my entire life. I’ve had the blessing of entirely raising a dog a cat and even a snake, from months of age to adulthood and throughout their elder years on my own. I am currently on summer break from school and work full-time as a Behavior Technician in Okemos, MI ! Other than my day-job I have a complete open availability on nights, afternoons and weekends. Plenty of time to smother your fur-baby with love and affection ! I have an upstairs apartment with two cats and a pet snake. There are no stairs inside my apartment so there is easy access for disabled and senior fur-babies. My bedroom and guest room also reside all on the same floor.

“Beanie loves Kenzie! She is super reliable and on time even when it’s been days with crappy weather. Plus, she always gets the cutest, derpiest photo of Beanie for the walk card which makes me smile when I see it after their walk!”
“Kristy was super easy to work with and took lots of pictures on her walk with Beanie! She was available to book the walk last minute (booked the day before) which was amazing and so helpful. Will definitely book with her again in the future!!”

“Jennifer is a great person who cares for your dog just like they were her own dogs. She asked lots of questions to make sure all of our dogs need were met. We have a pretty hyper dog that needs a lot of time for long walks and Jennifer had no problems taking her for her needed long walks. She also gave lots of doggie snuggles and sent us pictures of our girl while they were out and about. Jennifer is very kind and loving toward our girl and we will most definitely use her any time we are away from home.”

“Elizabeth came over for a meet and greet before our first booking. She took notes on all the little details and she did great with Gable on the day of the walk!”

About: I've had dogs my whole life. I recently had to rehome our dog, but I am looking to walk/run/hangout with a dog that I can hangout with as well. I do work full time, but am looking to help if someone needs a morning walk or afternoon walk. I could also do some hours on the weekend if needed and I am not busy. I do not plan on caring in my own home as we have a baby. I really just am looking to walk a dog. Thanks.
About: With years of experience caring for pets, I understand the importance of providing loving and attentive care. As a dedicated pet owner myself, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for animals’ unique needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. From feeding schedules to playtime and companionship, I prioritize each pet’s well-being as if they were my own. I am currently a college student with a light course load, so I definitely have a lot of time to attend to your pets <3 I create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for pets in my home. I follow their usual routine, including feeding schedules, playtime, and quiet time, to ensure they feel at ease. I provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and a clean space to keep them happy and healthy. Each pet gets individualized care based on their needs and personality.

About: Hey my name is Jade. I’m a stay at home girlfriend looking for cats to spoil. I grew up with a handsome feline named Marometas (spanish for cartwheel) and am looking for cats to keep me (and my boyfriend) company. We’ve love to have cats of our own but unfortunately it’s just not in our budget therefore I decided to start cat sitting so we’d have an pet at home that we can love as our own. I’m currently a stay at home girlfriend and I do all the cooking on the weekend so during the week I’m pretty free. We are flexible to whatever your needs are just send me a message and we can work it out. I’m also willing to pet sit other small animals such as rabbits or reptiles. We live in a pet friendly apartment with access to a large grassy area and a dog park just for our community. All the dogs in the community are dna registered and occasionally we’d get other animals such as deer and rabbits that pop by. I have no pets and I plan on only hosting 1 pet at a time. We don’t have any house plants that could be hazardous to animals.

About: I love animals in general and have an adorable toy poodle back at home that I used to care for full-time, but now my parents have custody of him since I am at college! I have experience with feeding, bathing, and walking. I can be very soothing and attentive when needed. I do not have much experience caring for larger dogs, but I am quite reliable. I am a student not taking any credits during the summer. I do work part-time but I’m back by the late afternoon . I have plenty of free-time I spend at my apartment. I will happily discuss my schedule with you! There are no other pets in my apartment at this time! I am very attentive and always mindful of safety. If I am hosting a cat generally I will keep the cat in my room with me at all times and I keep the litter box in my bathroom with open access.
“Beanie loves Emily 😭😭 she is amazing! Very reliable even with the crazy Michigan weather and the evening hours that are scheduled. Walks beanie as much as he can handle (which I love that she listens to what he needs!!), then will pet him for the rest of the time which he LOVES. He’s always very tired out after Emily comes.”
About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs for my entire life. I developed a unique and gentle approach to animal care as both our cats and dogs have had serious health issues. Although I am a full time student and am very busy on campus I still have plenty of free time on my weekdays and weekends. I am able to take care of animals through visits, feeding, walking, etc. I prefer quick care as opposed to sitting and boarding as my schedule does not allow me to perform these care duties.
“She has been amazing with Charlie! There was one day Charlie was choking a bit, and she reached out to let me know right away. She shows up every scheduled day on time! I know Charlie loves his walks with her.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. Family and friends have never hesitated to trust me as their dog sitter! I’m able to work with any dog or cat, whether that be puppies and kittens or your senior animal! I’m currently earning my master’s degree in Athletic Training, so I pet sit while I complete my program. My schedule is pretty open and flexible, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and care. I keep my Rover calendar updated and communicate clearly about my availability so you always know when I’m available to help. I live in a clean, pet-friendly two-bedroom apartment with my fiancé, our dog, and two cats. Safety is always my top priority, so introductions to our pets are done slowly and only if everyone is comfortable. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions. Dogs are always leashed outside, and I provide a calm, supervised environment where they can feel safe and at home.
About: What sets me apart is my personalized, attentive care. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies, shy rescues, and senior pets needing extra love I am currently a full time student at MSU and work part time, but my work and class schedule is super flexible! Let’s work together to find what works best for us and your pet! In my home or yours, I provide a safe, clean, stress-free environment. I’m super good at reading body language to understand and meet each pet’s needs. I follow their routine with playtime, feeding, walks, and companionship.
About: I'm a massive dog lover having raised three dogs and a cat as family members of our own. I am the grandmother of two dogs I love visiting. I have the unique ability of being ability to understand dogs each individual needs. Once we get to know each other, we’ll be best friends for life. I am semi retired working from home with my cuddly golden retriever Joey at my side. He thinks he’s a lap dog and so cute! I have always loved animals and treat them with love, care and attention every animal deserves. I love being home with my dog and I have plenty of time to love up more dogs and cats. We have a loving, clean home with a I fenced in back yard where we love hanging out with our dog. I walk my dog 3-4 miles per day and would love to walk your dog too! My dog and I playfully wrestle, play hide-n-seek, chase each other around the house, and play tug of war. These are his favorite activities aside from cuddling. I would love to give your pet company playing their favorite games or just hanging out as well. I love walks, playing games, and being a loving pet companion.
