“I left my dog Koda with Andrew for a week and had zero worries. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not stress about my pet. He sent lots of pictures and Koda definitely was enjoying himself in the backyard and on walks. He was definitely a happy boy!!!”
“Lauren and Cris are the absolute best. My dog Moose had such a great time staying with them. He got so much attention and love, and I got lots and lots of photos of him having a great time.”
“Paula is great. She provides a clean house, has expertise to keep order over the dogs, and has a great fenced yard. This was my first occasion boarding my beloved Bo, and was glad to be able to leave him in a place where he would get to hang with other good-natured dogs and have a yard to play for a change. Paula attended to our needs and my concerns. I wish she were closer for general "play dates", but if you are going to/from DTW, it's a very easy drop off and pick up.”
“Dia was great with our pup, from the time we connected for a meet and greet we felt comfortable. Dia provided great communication and photos throughout our dog's stay. We certainly will entrust her with our fur baby again!”
“We had such a great first Rover experience with Shannon! She sent updates and pictures of our dog several times a day, and she was professional from start to finish. We’ll definitely call on her again when we need dog-sitting!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ George is a gem of a dog sitter! Leaving my pup in someone else’s care is never easy, but George made the entire experience feel seamless and safe. From the moment we met, his calm energy and genuine love for animals were obvious. He kept my dog’s routine intact, sent regular updates (including adorable photos!). What really stood out was how attuned George was to my dog’s emotional needs. She’s usually shy around new people, but she warmed up to him quickly and that speaks volumes. My flight was delayed many times, but he made sure that he was flexible and continued to take care of my dog until I was able to figure things out . I came home to a happy, relaxed pup and a clean home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book George again for all my future trips or recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter.”
“Irma & Daniel took great care of our dog Leo. They gave him his medication and sent us pictures and updates daily. We are so happy with their service. Thank you so much!”
“Amazing amazing!! Took such great care of our puppy!!! And such a sweet family!!! They were all in on taking care of pup! Loved the picture updates & appreciate quick responses! Thank you!”
“David was great with our two shihtzu boys. He sent quite a few updated over the 5 nights my boys spent at his place. He has a great home and yard for the fur babies. He was also quick to respond for a meet and greet.”
“Tara was VERY accommodating, which was greatly appreciated because I was last minute. My Leo clung to her daughter the whole weekend so he felt right at home. I got back in town late and she was still very gracious. She was patient with my Leo as he's not used to being around other pets.”
“Thank you! Scout had a great time…came home and napped! He had fun playing in their big yard and playing with other dogs! We loved receiving his frequent pictures. Thanks for taking great care of our sweet Scout!”
“Sydney was amazing!!! Poor Charlie got sick with 2 parasites right before his visit. He was feeling much better after a few days on medication so Sydney still was willing to take him in. She continued the rest of his treatment which consisted of multiple medications at carousing times throughout the day. She continued to provide us updates through out his stay and reassured us that he was definitely on the up and up the whole time. Her location is ideal for airport travel as she is only about 10 minutes from DTW. We will absolutely use Sydney in the future!! Thank you again!”
“JoAnn was great! She took care of our Frenchie Winnie for a week and treated her like she was her own. She sent pictures and videos everyday. Winnie had plenty of playtime and walks. I would highly recommend!”
“Our dog Bear stayed with Dena and her family for the third time, and he had a great time! We will continue to be repeat customers because they are so kind and caring towards our dog. It is helpful to know that while you are gone, your pet is loved and cared for.”
“So, so happy with our choice to board our golden with Rachel and Michael while we were out of town for two weeks. They took fantastic care of Nala, provided many photos and updates throughout and it really allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing that our girl was so well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“So kind and accommodating! Piper had a great time with Deb and Malcomb! Thank you for taking care of piper while we traveled to a family reunion out of state. Knowing that piper was in a home environment with dog lovers made us feel at ease. Deb was very good at sharing pictures and keeping us updated daily on our Miss Piper. A+ experience. Will highly recommend and will use in future. This was our very first Rover.com experience and it was good! Thank you!!”
“Dawn was great! We got updated with pictures and video. Bella really enjoyed her time. I highly recommend Dawn and I will be reaching out to her on our next trip away. Thank you, Dawn 🐾”

“Jaicyn was a lifesaver! Partner and I were out of town and couldn’t check in on our Zenon during extensive power outages and Jaicyn swooped in on *no notice* to make sure Z was doing okay and getting enough food, pets, and attention—on the *same night* we put in the request. HIGHLY recommend Jaicyn’s expertise to anyone.”
“Jennifer was great. She spent day and nights at my home with my cat Lily. When I returned a week later Lily was happy and my house was spotless. Jennifer also left me the sweetest thank you card. I would highly recommend Jennifer to sit or you. She loves animals and they love her. She also sent me multiple pictures and I loved that.”
“Lauren was absolutely wonderful with Charlie! 🐾 She helped me out with walks and drop-in visits and took such great care of him while I was away. She kept me updated after each visit and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Charlie was happy and being well cared for. It was clear Charlie was comfortable with Lauren and enjoyed spending time with her. I really appreciated how reliable, caring, and communicative she was. I would absolutely trust Lauren with Charlie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and loving to care for their fur baby! ❤️🐶”
“Ally did such an incredible job house sitting and taking care of our fur babies for 2 weeks. Upon arriving home, everything was tidy and taken care of. Even opening the door, we could sense our cats disappointment when it wasn’t Ally. She really connected with our pets and made them comfortable. Anyone should be thrilled to have her take over while you’re gone!!! Thanks again so much!”
“Christina did an amazing job of bonding with my cat. It gave me enormous reassurance while I was traveling to know he was being well cared for. Thanks a million Christina. You're at the top of my list when I'm traveling in the future.”
“Abigail took such great care of my girls during the week I was away. She followed all of my instructions perfectly and sent great photos to let me know they were doing well. Will definitely book drop-in visits with Abigail again!”
“Molly was a great resource and took great care of my boy. Even clipped his nails for me (he won’t even let me do that!) I’ll definitely be looking for Molly next time I book! Thanks again!”
“Carissa dropped in on my two cats while I was out of town for the weekend. It was my first time leaving them after a move and I was worried about how they might react. Carissa's detailed Rover cards helped me feel confident they remained in good spirits during my absence. My cats love playing feather stick toy with her and look forward to having her back soon!”
“Corri took excellent care of our three cats while we were on vacation! She provided twice daily drop-in visits to our home to feed, medicate and love on our kitties, and when we asked if we could extend our vacation by a day, she was happy to help and fill in for the extra drop-ins we needed! She was kind and patient with each of our kitties, and even got our shy kitty to take treats from her hand. She administered pill pockets, and liquid medication with confidence and ease, and even had her husband administer a subcutaneous injection that one of our cats needed. I would highly recommend Corri for your pet sitting needs! Her visits were timely, and she was very reliable, giving us the secure peace of mind we needed to fully enjoy our vacation. Thank you, Corri!”
About: I've been a devoted cat owner for over seven years and currently have two cats of my own that I absolutely adore. Living with cats has taught me how unique every personality is, and I'm comfortable caring for cats of all energy levels, from playful and outgoing to shy and reserved. I understand that every cat has their own routine, and I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm happy to play with active cats, give quiet cats the space they need, refresh food and water, scoop litter boxes, and provide plenty of attention and affection based on their individual needs. I've also cared for friends' and family members' cats in the past and know how important it is to keep owners updated. I'm happy to send photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If your cat needs medication, I'm willing to do my best to administer it given the cat's comfort level. My goal is to treat every cat with the same care, patience, and love that I give my own.
“Amy is kind, dependable and took great care of my cat, including the administration of medication twice a day. She sent frequent updates and pictures and kept my home in good order. Highly recommend. Will use again.”
“Lauren was very caring for my kittens, always took pictures for me and followed the instructions very well! If I need a sitter next time I would definitely ask her again!”
About: I got my first cat when I was 5 and I was hooked ever since. I’ve taken care of them for as long as I can remember. I currently have a cat with asthma and other medical conditions so I am very comfortable with administering medication.
“WOW! Lindsey was amazing. More than amazing. Everything I could hope for in a sitter. Within 2 days she had my super shy girl sitting on her lap. This took my husband at least a year and a half to get to that point. She sent pictures showing the same shy girl playing with a wand without the other two cats butting in. They all loved her and from what I could tell, each kitty had equal play and loving. I came home to clean litter boxes, fresh water, happy cats, and a vacuumed house! She genuinely cared about my babies. I almost want to take trips just to have Lindsey come over and love on my cats ❣️”
“Chelsea was wonderful. She allowed me to see her space and meet her prior to dropping off my kitty. During the stay, she provided me updates and photos. Chelsea was really great with my kitty and would definitely rebook :)”
About: I have experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, routines, and medical needs—from affectionate companions to those who need extra patience and space. I’m comfortable administering medications according to your instructions and closely monitoring appetite, behavior, litter-box habits, and overall well-being. My goal is to keep your cat’s routine consistent while providing calm, attentive care that helps them feel safe in their own home.

“With my first puppy I quickly became worried i'd never be able to take a vacation. George eased my own separation anxiety and I was comfortable taking my first day trip away from my 8 month old puppy knowing she was safe and cared for.”
“I am so happy we found Theresa and Glenn they’re wonderful people in love going to their house and playing with the other dogs as soon as we pull up she’s very excited to be there. I feel blessed to have found them.”
“Samantha was amazing! My husband and I took Maru to Michigan and needed someone to watch her while we attended an event. Maru spent two days with Samantha’s family, and we picked her up at nights. Our puppy is almost 6 months old and hadn’t been around many people or dogs, but Samantha and her family gave her outstanding care and great socialization. Maru came back to us happy and loved. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone who wants their dog to be safe, happy, and well-socialized while they’re away.”
About: I am an animal lover, a mother of 2, an aspiring writer, and love taking long walks. My children are having a great time getting to know different dogs and bonding with them like they were our own. I was fortunate enough to love and care for a special needs dog for 13 years and miss my time with him. I understand the importance of not leaving your pets alone all day long and look forward to providing some lucky dog with all the cuddles, play time, exercise, and gentle discipline they require while enriching the lives of my children and I. I would love to get to know your furry friend and look forward to learning about their particular needs and how I can help them. It's almost like you are doing me a favor! Pet care is literally my job. My only other obligations are caring for my children, which fits well with caring for pets. We are active and enjoy spending our days moving, walking, and having fun. I live in an upstairs condo with my children. I generally take 4 walks a day with dogs in my home. I have older cats who will stay hidden while your dog is here. If you allow it, I may bake your dogs healthy treats during the stay. When I visit your home, I want things to remain looking untouched, and I will clean up any messes your pet has made or does make while I’m there. This includes sweeping litter, cleaning urine and vomit and poo, vacuuming pet hair after a good petting, and cleaning up things your pet may have “stress chewed”. I do have school runs in the morning and afternoon. If your dog likes the car, they are welcome to come along. Otherwise, I’m get really home all day. At my home, we try to provide lots of attention through play, petting, or just companionship, and walks throughout the day to keep your dog comfortable, happy, and healthy. I’ll be sure to follow whatever instructions you provide and send periodic updates so you know what your dog has been up to. When I visit your home, I will again, follow your instructions and give your pet the attention it needs.
About: I’ve grown up caring for all kinds of pets such as dogs, cats, birds, and guinea pigs, animal care has always been my passion. I’m comfortable and experienced with pets of all kinds! I also have experience caring for pets with Cerebellar Hypoplasia. I’m fully available anytime, and will work around your schedule! I try to be home as much as possible when I have a pet in my care, the longest I would be away is 2-3 hours. I have a fenced yard with a tie out leash! I can also provide walks everyday! I also have plenty of toys for any pet!
“This was my first time having someone other than my dad watch my puppy as normally my dog doesn't react well to anyone other than him. However, we both needed to attend the same event this time and I am so glad to have found this great sitter. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Dialachelle was incredibly responsive and proactive from start to finish. She was prepared at the meet and greet with a pup cup and my normally reactive puppy warmed up to her right away. Her experience as a flight nanny, being calm and understanding when my puppy had an accident during the meet and greet, and professionalism solidified that she would be a great fit. She went above and beyond, walking my puppy every hour and sending regular photo updates. I highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again!”

We have a fenced in property and separate home for any pets. Our 2 dogs will be able to keep your pet company and we are able to crate dogs.
“Had a great experience with David! He was incredibly kind and flexible. He made sure my dog felt comfortable and happy—taking her for a car ride, going on walks, and giving her plenty of attention. It was clear he genuinely cares for the dogs he looks after. I felt confident leaving my dog in his care and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!”
“My dog had a good day with Kayla and was well taken care of for the day. The dogsitter was ver attentive with communication and clearly let me know when I could drop off amd pick up Coby. She understood the instructions I gave for his care and made sure that his ear was taken care of. Coby clearly had fun that day and if I happen to be back in the area, I will definitely look up this dogsitter again.”
“Erin was absolutely incredible. We were in Ann Arbor for my niece's surgery and we suddenly needed to book a last-minute doggy day care for our Luna. Erin responded so quickly and offered to watch our dog. She lives in a great, quiet neighborhood and has two dogs that she let Luna play with! Erin was so kind, sent so many updates, and was just such a blessing to have for the few days we needed doggy day care. We trust our dog with Erin 100% and highly recommend her as a sitter - she's fantastic, responds immediately, provides great updates, and is an overall fantastic person! 10/10!”
About: My husband Kyle and I have had dogs our whole life and have always enjoyed spending time with them as well as training them. We currently have a cat and a fox red lab who is very loving, incredibly smart, and well trained. We also take care of dogs for family members when they are on vacation or at work for an extended period of time. I am a stay at home mom currently. I just had a baby in November 2022 and I’m looking to make some extra income for our family. I am home all day and have a half an acre fenced in yard for the pups to run around and play. When my husband is off work, he loves to play with the dogs and help train them. We have a fenced in yard to play in and go potty. We also have a very friendly Labrador retriever dog who could keep your dog company or if preferred we have enough space to separate them in the house or a large crate for your dog if that’s what is preferred as well. Whatever makes you most comfortable as a dog mama or dad is what we will do to best take care of your furry friend.
“Terri was amazingly accommodating! She helped us out so much by picking our dog up for us when we were in a bind and bringing him to her house very last minute, even though she hadn't watched Remi before! We were so impressed and grateful! Thanks again Terri!!”
“Katie was great with our small old dog! She sent several pictures and updates and was clearly very gentle and caring and attentive. We'll definitely be using her again!”

About: I have trained, watched, worked with, handled, and loved on every temperament of pet from lovable couch potatoes, anxiety ridden, hospice care, and animals that do not do well with other people or animals for over 20 years. Through those years I have worked with rescues, dog shows, dog sports, and training and raising puppies and adults that have helped me to become an extremely understanding, patient, and proficient behaviorist and trainer I am to this day. Anything from walks, training, medical needs, behavioral needs, bathing, or just simple understanding is my expertise with animals, primarily dogs. I do have a full time job, however animal care is a top priority. I also have a partner (who is also verified on rover and a former veterinarian technician) that lives with me, which leaves me able to board, train, doggy daycare, or any need a family might need while seeking a pet sitter for their beloved pet/s. If your pet/s is boarding at my home, I have a fenced in yard with multiple types of animals that are all very well behaved and trained. I have a separate space in my kitchen for your pet/s or I do crate dogs at night time and place cats in a separate, closed area at night for your pet/s comfortability in a new environment. If I care for your pet/s at their home, they will have the comfort and safety of their regular routine at their home while you have the peace of mind that not only are your pet/s taken care of but so is your home while away. Following medical need instructions and able to administer any meds will be adhered to in the utmost manner. Whether your pet/s are at my home or yours for overnights, day time drop ins, or daytime doggy daycare they are treated with the highest level of patience and respect. Pet/s will also have numerous potty breaks, multiple walks if they need, and some good ol fashion playtime and love.
“Sheila was amazing!! I was traveling through the area and noticed there was a Ford Museum i wanted to visit. I reached out the Sheila and she took the pups in last minute with no hesitation. I’m usually very particular about who watches my pups and usually meet up with them first before just leaving them with someone I don’t know. Sheila was very reassuring and sent me messages and pictures throughout their stay to give me peace of mind. I would definitely use Sheila again if ever in the area.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for all animals! I pay attention to each pets routine and needs throughout the day. And I will be keeping you updated with pictures and videos on how they are doing. I work from home and have all the free time in the world! And also don’t have any pets right now! So all my focus would be on your fur baby. Because I am home 24/7 they wouldn’t be allowed to be left alone or get into anything. We would have unlimited walks or play time!! Or if they are the fur baby that likes to relax it’s plenty of clean spots for them in my home ❤️

“Carissa is an amazing dog walker! She’s great with my American Staffordshire mix, Baymax. Well worth the $20! He seems happier after I get home than when I have had friends or family walk him.”
“First time hiring a pet sitter, wasn't sure what to expect. Molly was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond what I had expected. I would recommend her to anyone as someone to take care of their pets.”
“Lauren has been wonderful with Ike. She is very responsive, communicates clearly, and is always patient with him. Since Ike is a shy boy, I really appreciate the time and effort she puts into helping him feel comfortable. With each visit, Ike has become more relaxed and confident around her, which speaks volumes about her caring and gentle approach. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”
About: I have been caring for animals since elementary school. I watched cats and dogs for neighbors and friends of the family. As I got older, I started getting referrals for pets from around the community and cared for those animals too. The arch of my kindness and care is not limited to animals, as I also provide care for the elderly. I cared for both of my grandparents and my father until his passing. I currently provide care and other services to a 104 year-old young lady who is believed to be my community’s oldest living resident and yes, she still walks and does not use a wheelchair. I am self-employed and have a very flexible schedule. I can care for your pet any day of the week (unless I have another pet scheduled for that day) and at times convenient for most people. I am here to follow your instructions and schedule without deviation. Your fur baby will be feed exactly at the time(s) directed by you, same with any medication(s). For dogs, I will take them outside for walks and indoor/outdoor play as weather permits, and see that their water is always fresh with some treats and cuddles too. For cats, it is play and more play; plus fresh water and treats, then snuggling when we are done.
“Jackie is GREAT! She is punctual and very sweet with my pups. She took the time to learn their personalities which is helping them feel safe and comfortable. I highly recommend Jackie for your pet care needs.”
About: Based in Belleville, MI - I started pet sitting for friends in 2021 while covid precautions were still in place, and since then I've helped many friends whenever they were heading out of town for a while. I've always had a knack for getting along with cats, dogs, and other animals, even those who are shy or aggressive at first. Your pet's needs are my priority. I will review all of your provided instructions with you so that I may ask questions and make sure we're on the same page. And, if anything ever seems wrong, I'll make sure you know immediately so that you can make informed decisions regarding your pet's care. I believe every pet has a good heart - they just need the right care and attention to let that shine through! I work part time on a pretty flexible schedule, so I can always make time for your animal companions! I specialize in keeping pets comfy and cared for so that you can rest easy on vacation :) I pay close attention to and respect both behavior and body language - this keeps everyone safe, and allows me to inform you right away if something requires your attention.
“Lauren was great with our dogs! She was patient with our one dog that takes a little bit of time to warm up to people. Her communication was fantastic and she sent lots of pictures so we knew everything was going well. Will definitely use her again in the future!!”
About: I have a Master’s degree in Biology and currently work in a management role, bringing reliability, organization, and strong communication skills to everything I do—including pet care. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even bunnies. Over the years, I’ve provided pet sitting for a wide variety of animals throughout college and beyond. In addition to personal experience, I’ve volunteered my time walking dogs at a local animal shelter and have supported animal welfare through holiday donation drives. Caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s something I genuinely value. I’m also an active runner currently training for a half marathon, so I’d be more than happy to take high-energy dogs out for runs or extra-long walks to help them burn off energy and stay happy and healthy. I’m using Rover as a way to give back while doing something I love. I’m fundraising for two meaningful causes as part of my upcoming runDisney half marathon at Disney World: Hope Story, which supports individuals with Down syndrome, and Experience Camps, which provides free camps for children who have lost a parent or sibling. I’m just $1195 away from my goal, and every booking helps me get closer while continuing to provide loving, dependable care for pets. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule. My son will be attending school this summer and I’m looking for additional ways to earn some extra money. I have a rescue pit-mix named Jetta who enjoys our acre and a half backyard. I am reliable and will show respect in client homes, if drop in visits are preferred.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy caring for them like they’re my own. Right now, I have two cats who are my baby boys, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and their routines. I’m comfortable with a wide range of animals and personalities—from high-energy dogs to more independent or shy pets—and I always take the time to make them feel safe and cared for. I’m very detail-oriented and reliable, especially when it comes to following feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions. I know how important consistency is for pets, and I make that a priority. I work from home Monday–Friday, which gives me some flexibility during the day for drop-in visits and pet care. I have the most availability after 5 PM on weekdays and on weekends. I’m also available for overnight stays in my clients’ homes, since I live in an apartment and am not offering boarding in my own home. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, litter boxes, walks, playtime, and routines. I always make sure doors are secure, pets have fresh water, and their space is clean and safe before I leave. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know your pets are doing well.
“Izzy is completely trustworthy, reliable, and caring. She gave my dog (and surprise cat), lots of attention and affection. She even worked on some dog training in my absence, which was totally unexpected. I will absolutely ask for her help again .”
About: I have been around and taken care of dogs since I could remember. I have been trusted to house and dog sit by family members and I have worked with all sizes and breeds. I am currently a senior at Michigan State University studying Kinesiology. I love staying active and have a passion for animals, so what better than combining the two together?! I currently live with roommates and one small dog. I do not offer boarding services, but I do love living and caring for animals on a daily basis.
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m a lifelong animal lover and the proud dog mom of Bella Rose, my rescued miniature dachshund. Caring for Bella has taught me how important patience, consistency, and gentle attention are, especially with shy or nervous dogs. I treat every pet like I would want someone to treat Bella. I’m attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, comfort levels, and all the little details that help animals feel safe. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddling, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll adjust to what makes them happiest. I’m also an English student and writer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet genuine, one-on-one attention. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m an online English student and writer, so my schedule is flexible and I spend most of my time at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I already plan my days around caring for my own dog, Bella, so making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved is a normal part of my everyday life. I follow each pet’s normal routine and all instructions provided by their owner, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I keep pets supervised, double-check doors and leashes, and never leave them outside unattended. In my home, I introduce pets to Bella slowly and carefully, and I can give them separate spaces when needed. I keep my apartment calm, clean, and comfortable, with plenty of attention and rest time. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Colleen is amazing! Her communication is top-notch, and she always keeps me updated with photos and activity details from the walks. Most importantly, she has an incredible connection with our dog, Annie, who absolutely adores her. It gives me total peace of mind knowing she is in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend Colleen!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life — I’ve had both dogs and cats in my home since birth, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. Currently, I share my home with a Standard Poodle, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and two dog-friendly cats who are all well-socialized and used to visiting pets. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I’m always happy to arrange a video call or an in-person meet and greet beforehand — whatever helps give you peace of mind. Why pet parents choose me: • Your dog will enjoy a comfortable, home-like environment with plenty of love and attention — not long hours outside unsupervised or crated unnecessarily. • I only board for one family at a time, which allows me to give your pet individualized care and attention while also limiting exposure to unfamiliar animals. • I work full-time from home, so your pet will rarely, if ever, be left alone. • As a Rover customer myself, I know how reassuring regular communication can be. I’m happy to send frequent photo updates and check-ins while you’re away. • I pride myself on being dependable, reliable, and attentive. Whether it’s boarding, walks, or drop-ins, you can count on me to be punctual and fully committed to your pet’s care. • I do not require crating for dogs who are not normally crated at home. I want your pet to feel as relaxed and comfortable as possible during their stay. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while they’re with me — and for you to feel confident knowing they’re being cared for like family. I work full-time from home Monday - Friday, but I am able walk and care for pets on my breaks and lunch hour. My work schedule is extremely flexible. I will care for your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether that means belly rubs, head scratches, cuddles, treats, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll tailor my care to your pet’s individual personality and needs. And if your pet prefers their space or is more independent, I’ll always respect their boundaries and comfort level. For drop-in visits, I’m open to watering plants, taking out trash, bringing in mail etc. in addition to caring for your pet(s). Just let me know what you need done!
About: I’ve had pets since I can remember. I am very comfortable with all animals. I have had dogs and cats with various medical needs so I am comfortable with all types of animal care. I also love walking and am more than willing to go as far as your pet wants! I am currently a stay at home mom, so my schedule is pretty open for when you would need me. I am available during the week and most weekends. Monday-Friday: available at any time Tuesday-Thursday: any time before 8am, or after 5pm I am comfortable with feeding, scooping litter, playing, taking outside, giving medication and I am able to handle any aspect of care your pet may need.
“Louisha is a very nice person. She came over the day before our trip to Cedar Point and met Lucy, our dog, and myself. She asked great questions about her routines and specific needs. I was nervous using this app and who I would find but she had great reviews and she has them for a reason. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets. Lucy loved her too! We will certainly use her services again.”

“I left my dog Koda with Andrew for a week and had zero worries. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not stress about my pet. He sent lots of pictures and Koda definitely was enjoying himself in the backyard and on walks. He was definitely a happy boy!!!”
“Paula is great. She provides a clean house, has expertise to keep order over the dogs, and has a great fenced yard. This was my first occasion boarding my beloved Bo, and was glad to be able to leave him in a place where he would get to hang with other good-natured dogs and have a yard to play for a change. Paula attended to our needs and my concerns. I wish she were closer for general "play dates", but if you are going to/from DTW, it's a very easy drop off and pick up.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ George is a gem of a dog sitter! Leaving my pup in someone else’s care is never easy, but George made the entire experience feel seamless and safe. From the moment we met, his calm energy and genuine love for animals were obvious. He kept my dog’s routine intact, sent regular updates (including adorable photos!). What really stood out was how attuned George was to my dog’s emotional needs. She’s usually shy around new people, but she warmed up to him quickly and that speaks volumes. My flight was delayed many times, but he made sure that he was flexible and continued to take care of my dog until I was able to figure things out . I came home to a happy, relaxed pup and a clean home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book George again for all my future trips or recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter.”
“Irma & Daniel took great care of our dog Leo. They gave him his medication and sent us pictures and updates daily. We are so happy with their service. Thank you so much!”
“Amazing amazing!! Took such great care of our puppy!!! And such a sweet family!!! They were all in on taking care of pup! Loved the picture updates & appreciate quick responses! Thank you!”
“David was great with our two shihtzu boys. He sent quite a few updated over the 5 nights my boys spent at his place. He has a great home and yard for the fur babies. He was also quick to respond for a meet and greet.”
“Sydney was amazing!!! Poor Charlie got sick with 2 parasites right before his visit. He was feeling much better after a few days on medication so Sydney still was willing to take him in. She continued the rest of his treatment which consisted of multiple medications at carousing times throughout the day. She continued to provide us updates through out his stay and reassured us that he was definitely on the up and up the whole time. Her location is ideal for airport travel as she is only about 10 minutes from DTW. We will absolutely use Sydney in the future!! Thank you again!”
“JoAnn was great! She took care of our Frenchie Winnie for a week and treated her like she was her own. She sent pictures and videos everyday. Winnie had plenty of playtime and walks. I would highly recommend!”
“So, so happy with our choice to board our golden with Rachel and Michael while we were out of town for two weeks. They took fantastic care of Nala, provided many photos and updates throughout and it really allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing that our girl was so well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“So kind and accommodating! Piper had a great time with Deb and Malcomb! Thank you for taking care of piper while we traveled to a family reunion out of state. Knowing that piper was in a home environment with dog lovers made us feel at ease. Deb was very good at sharing pictures and keeping us updated daily on our Miss Piper. A+ experience. Will highly recommend and will use in future. This was our very first Rover.com experience and it was good! Thank you!!”
“Dawn was great! We got updated with pictures and video. Bella really enjoyed her time. I highly recommend Dawn and I will be reaching out to her on our next trip away. Thank you, Dawn 🐾”
“Amie was amazing for our Bellamy! I could always count on detailed daily reports and pictures. I knew he was being cared for and loved just as at home. And playing with her dogs and family made him so happy! I think he already misses being at their house. 🥲”
“I highly recommend Katie for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter! She and her husband took excellent care of my doggo for a weekend while I was away, and I couldn't be more grateful. From the initial meet-and-greet to the regular updates and photos during my trip, Katie showed exceptional professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and dog-loving sitter, look no further than Katie! I'll definitely be booking with her again for future trips. Five 🐾”
“Caroline provides great care to our dog! She gives lots of playtime outside with the other dogs and provides sweet video updates. We’re always very happy with our experience!”
About: I’ve had dogs almost my whole life. I am able to administer medication, give baths, take walks and give all the belly rubs needed. My goal one day is to foster dogs and cats, caring for your fur baby will give me all the experience I need to care for other animals until I have the space to do it. I just love them all! I generally work from home with a very lenient schedule. My kids are all grown and out of the house leaving me with a lot of free time. I just have one dog and one cat, but I would love to love more!! I do not have a fenced yard so I would be walking your dog for potty breaks. I do have a crate I can use in home if needed. For doggy day care we would schedule a meet and greet beforehand. I am available almost anytime for walks and feeding if necessary. For cats I am available for feeding and litter box cleaning.
“Shawna was a great sitter, very communicative and very great with the updates everyday ! I had a very long trip so it was much appreciated. A kitten is a handful and she was great with my little rascal 😊😊”
“We loved working with Chelsea. Our puppy instantly loved them and seemed happy when we got him back. Chelsea was really good at communicating through out and sent us pics of the dog and other updates.”
