About: Hey everybody! My name is Alex and I am very grateful and eager to be apart of a business that helps dogs and their loving owners. I have come to learn that pet care is quite important in my ten plus years of experience with dogs.

Any age from little rambunctious pups to easy going older dogs, I am happy to oblige to making life easier for you and your dog!

“Alice did an amazing job with Oreo! She was so kind, patient and gentle with her. She clearly communicated with me about how her day went and asked questions about her needs. Her utmost priority is safety of the dogs in her care, which also made me feel very comfortable! Thank you so much, Alice :)”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover currently studying Zoology, with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets of all personalities. I share my home with my Treeing Walker Coonhound, Bear, three cats, and several degus, and I’m especially experienced with shy, anxious, and sensitive animals. The only pets I’m not able to care for are spiders or tarantulas due to arachnophobia, but all other animals will be cared for with patience, respect, and the same love I give my own. While attending college online for my Zoology degree, I maintain a very flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care and meet a variety of client needs. I’m able to provide consistent, reliable care throughout the day and week. I care for pets by following their established routines and providing a calm, safe, and attentive environment, whether in my home or a client’s home. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I focus on exercise, enrichment, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship, while closely following any specific instructions. For in-home sitting or boarding, I provide a structured routine, close supervision, positive reinforcement, and regular updates so pet parents can feel confident and informed while they’re away.
About: I've taken care of family and friends dogs for about 30 years. I can train puppy and adult dog in basic obedience. For senior dogs will be more attentive and show love. If you have a special need's dog such as leg wheelchair or any type of disability and I would love to learn how to take care of it. I will love them back with all my heart. I understand their disabilities and will give them a great care at 100%. I'm working a part-time on flexible days. I still find time to spends with dogs. I love to play with your fur babies. I will walk the fur babies on a daily routine. I use leach in the backyard since there is no fence yard. I live in a townhouse and do not have fence yard. I use 20 feet leach attached to my deck. I will take them to the dog parks, which I enjoyed to see them run and play.
“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!!”
“Quinn ran in the door heading straight for the toys Yulia had prepared. He enjoyed himself, went right to sleep as soon as we got home. We will definitely check if Yulia is available if we need day care in Michigan again.”
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have a 12 year old Doberman, a 2 year old pitbull mix, 4 black cats, 2 donkeys, 6 chickens and a parakeet. In the recent past, I worked as a temporary Animal Care Technician at the Ingham County Animal Control which gave me experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and cats with different behaviors. I also learned a lot about giving medications and vaccines, animal enrichment, feeding guidelines and more. I am very interested in dog training so your dogs will get some free training as I am sure I will be practicing any new techniques I learn with my clients! Recently I opened a small dog daycare a mile down the road from my home. Any dog that stays with me will likely get to go down to play with other dogs during the day. If you would like to learn more, just ask! Pet Care is my full time job. I love what I do. Please see my calendar or check with me on my availability for specific dates and times. BOARDING: Any dog I board must get along with my dogs. We will set up a free Meet and Greet at my home before the visit gets booked to make sure it will be a good fit. I have a large fenced in back yard but can also take your dog for daily walks if you prefer. We do also have 2 donkeys that share a fence line with our backyard area. They are used to dogs and have never broken through the fence. I always treat others pets as my own. I interact with them with patience, gentleness and love. I only use positive reinforcement. I am an active person and love to play ball and go for walks or slow jogs, but I also love to cuddle with any furry friends. Pets are family!

About: Been around dogs since birth. I understand dogs better than I understand people. Trained my dogs to do basic stuff within first couple days of having them and won't have a problem doing the same with yours if wanted. Open to any dates at any time of the day. Currently this is my only job to try to get enough experience to open my own board and train My dogs free roam around the yard. Neither of them step outside the boundaries I have established for them. No shock collars, no invisible fence needed just a firm understanding between my dogs and I
About: Your dog will be my dog while in my care. I am a huge animal lover who has always made my animals a part of my family, not just an animal. Starting May 4th, I will be training for a new job. My training hours will be 8-5, if you can work around those time please reach out. My yard is not fenced so your babies will only be outside when I am out there with them, leashed if required. I do not agree with leaving a dog alone all night when they are already seeing a difference with their family being gone. If they are dog friendly they would have socialization as well with my friends and family dogs so they could get some interaction and extra exercise! I currently work from home so frequent potty breaks or administration of medication would not be an issue. We would be one big happy family all day long My dogs are not crated when I leave the house but do have an extra large one if required for your baby. If you need me to do a drop in visit, my hours for availability are in the air for the next couple of weeks until I am given my new works hours.
About: I've had different dogs in the house for my whole life. As a kid my family brought dogs in for foster care. We've taken care of multiple dogs with disabilities, including deaf dogs and partially blind dogs. Dogs get along with me well and I'm good at getting shy dogs to warm up to me. I've also volunteered with the Jackson County Animal Shelter, working with the cats at PetSmart. I've also taken care of relatives'/friends'/neighbors' pets. Currently I spend most of my time at home working on my online classes so I will have plenty of time to spend caring for your dog. On the rare chance that I'm not home at least one of my parents are in the house and will be able to fill in for me while I'm out. The dogs that I own eat at the same time everyday and go out as needed, but if your dogs need to be treated differently it will be easy to change things for them. Just fill me in on what your pet needs to be taken care of properly and I should be able to get it done.
About: Hi! My name is Hope. I’m very excited to start this journey and meet new people and their dog/cat companions. I love animals so much. I grew up with animals all my life- including dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, goats, frogs, turtles, rats, rabbits, birds, etc! All animals are a blessing! I have some experience with training, would not consider myself a pro lol. I do volunteer to New Hope Pet Rescue and I dog sit for Denise Rose. I love helping people as well, I just love helping in general such as cleaning, babysitting, dog sitting, etc. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your companion! I’m currently working at 4pm-10pm on Wednesday through Sunday. My schedule is flexible outside of work and even during work hours sometimes. We can always work something out. I enjoy this job very much and I love helping. My home is in the country, I don’t have a fenced in yard but I do have a fenced in area where my goats used to live (they aren’t here anymore). I do have two dogs, two cats, and a cockatiel. I have no problem leaving your companion out of a cage even when I am gone or I can cage them-whatever you prefer! I just let them hang out and go outside whenever they want. I also have some leashes and a tie out. I normally just leave a bowl of food and water out all the time but if you have a set schedule when they eat that is fine too, I can do that.
“I can’t say enough good things about Jessica! My boy went to doggy daycare for the day, she was very communicative. She worked with him on some training and sent videos and pictures of him playing, resting and doing some training. She went above and beyond! My pup came home happy and tired out!”
“Melissa went above and beyond while taking care of my dog Amaya. She is an excellent caring person. I was nervous about the process because it is my first time on Rover. She helped me so much and put my mind at ease. I wholeheartedly recommend her.”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! I've owned and cared for a variety of pets over the years and have experience with animals of different ages, personalities, and care needs. One of the most rewarding parts of my pet-care journey has been fostering. I'm currently a foster with Capital Area Humane Society (CAHS) and have also fostered for other shelters in the past. Through fostering, I've cared for pets who were shy, energetic, recovering from medical procedures, learning social skills, or simply looking for a safe place to land before finding their forever homes. I also have two dogs who don't currently live with me, but I absolutely love spending time with them whenever I can. Whether it's long walks, outdoor adventures, or hiking local trails, I'm happiest when I have a furry companion by my side. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently unemployed, so I am available almost 24/7 to care for your pet(s)! My schedule allows me the flexibility to provide reliable and attentive care for pets throughout the week. I make it a priority to plan my day around the pets I'm caring for so they receive the attention, exercise, potty breaks, meals, and companionship they need. Whether your pet thrives on a structured routine or is more laid-back, I'm happy to work with their individual schedule and needs. Communication is important to me, so you can also expect regular updates, photos, and check-ins while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. My approach is centered on safety, patience, and positive interactions. As a foster caregiver, I've worked with animals from many different backgrounds, which has taught me how to read body language, respect boundaries, and help pets feel comfortable in new situations. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, and household rules. I believe every pet deserves individualized care and attention. My goal is to provide a safe, stress-free experience where both pets and owners feel confident and comfortable. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same love and care I would give my own.

I treat every pet like family and strive to create a safe, loving, and comforting environment while their owners are away. I’m currently working part-time at a retail store this summer before I go back to college in the fall. This gives me plenty of extra time and energy to dedicate to caring for your pets. I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals whether that means playing, going on walks, keeping them company, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, loved, active, and comfortable both in my home and in my clients homes. I have a Dalmatian of my own so I’m very familiar with the energy, attention, and care dogs need on a daily basis. I take my Dalmatian on multiple walks every day, play with her constantly, provide enrichment activities to keep her mentally stimulated, and make sure she stays on a healthy feeding schedule. I also have a pet cat that I care for daily by playing with him, feeding him, giving him cuddles, and keeping his litter box clean and fresh.

About: I am recent college graduate and a new high school teacher, so my summers are 100% free. Once school begins, I would be doing afternoon walks or weekend overnights.

I have a great deal of animal behavior experience from my own pets both big and small. I have done a great deal of training as well from working with dogs through college getting the basic commands, walking on a leash, and potty training. I also have done quite a bit with my rescue who had horrible manners and mild agression, but he know walks without a leash on all types of property and is a completely different dog.

I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.
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 taken care of dogs both large and small breed since I was a kid for myself as well as other family members. Beyond dogs, I grew up raising cattle and have had various small animal pets as well. Currently have a Black Lab (Cruz), who is a gentle giant. I work full-time, but I'm willing to spend my lunch break with your pup. I also have the ability to care for your pup in the evening if needed. Walks, drop-ins, etc! Just let me know how I can help. Each pet has its own "vibe" in my opinion. Prior to caring for your pet, I would ask some questions to help me better understand THEM and their needs. When it is time to take care of them, I would do my best to ensure that they know I'm safe and simply want to be their buddy. Some pets aren't so trusting at first (grew up with a Black Lab like this), so it may take time....and that is perfectly okay. My goal is not to overload them, and let them warm up to me at their own pace.
About: Hey everybody! My name is Alex and I am very grateful and eager to be apart of a business that helps dogs and their loving owners. I have come to learn that pet care is quite important in my ten plus years of experience with dogs. Years ago, I was a partner in an organization that rescued dogs from kill shelters and then found them safe and loving forever homes. SO I am no stranger to dogs and good quality care. If you have any questions for me in terms of my experience or services, please do not hesitate to call. Any age from little rambunctious pups to easy going older dogs, I am happy to oblige to making life easier for you and your dog!

Hands down my dogs favorite part I’m sure! Her sweet daughter even bought my dogs a toy, they love their new “baby”. Thank you Amber!!”

“Alice took care of our dog during our trip this summer. She was sending us pictures every day. She took our dog to dog park almost every day. She even cooked food for him. He was happy and healthy when we picked him up. We absolutely love Alice ❤️.”
“They took good care of my pup. They welcomed us in their home and made sure Snuggz was accommodated. They were even so kind to provide a bowl since I forgot to bring one. The communication was also great when needed. I would recommend”
“Our two senior dogs were well cared for and got along great in the pack. We were very happy with how very well they were cared for. Terrific large fenced in yard. Thank you Brooke!”
“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!!”
“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.”
“Rodney and his puppy crew were amazing! He sent pictures and gave updates to let me know that Marshmallow was comfortable and well cared for. Our little girl is looking forward to visiting again!”
“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.”
“Kathy is a true gem. I was nervous to find a new sitter for Harriet because she spent her first 1.5 years in Ann Arbor with the same sitter who recently moved away. Kathy was communicative and friendly. Harriet sprinted to her as soon as we pulled up to her house, and then pulled back toward her house as I picked her up to leave. She was exhausted for the rest of the day back home! I’ve already booked her again!”
“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!”
“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!”
