“Danielle and her family were so great with my high energy, high anxiety border collie. She was super communicative in advance and was flexible with my crazy travel hours. When we got to their house to drop Callie off, she immediately took off into their huge, fenced in backyard, and I knew she’d have a great time there. Not only did Danielle and her family play with Callie, but even the neighborhood kiddos came to throw frisbees for her. I know she’d love to go back, and I’m happy to recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a fun time for their pup!”
About: Hi! I’m 30 years old and I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I grew up in a house full of dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—my mom always had rescues and mixed breeds, so I’m very comfortable with different temperaments and energy levels. Today, I have my own adopted 16 lb mixed-breed dog, and caring for him has only deepened my love and experience with dogs. I’m confident handling puppies and energetic dogs, and I truly enjoy walks, playtime, and giving them attention and care. For safety reasons, I prefer not to work with dogs that are overly aggressive or difficult to manage. My experience is focused entirely on dogs, so I’m not the best fit for cats or other types of pets. I’m available to foster small dogs in my apartment. I work from home and I’m able to walk him/her 3/4 times a day. I’m also available for drop-in visits between 6 AM–8 AM and anytime after 5 PM. I live in an apartment with a fenced area, which is great for safe outdoor time. I’m also happy to take your dog on walks outside around the neighborhood. I can feed, play with, and walk your dog, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 10 years. Experience with active dogs, elderly dogs and everything in between. Flexible schedule and last minute availability. I am available 24/7! I work freelance so my work schedule is remote and I schedule it myself. I have open availability on weekends as well. I have reliable transportation. I know all the best walking spots in town! I have a fenced in yard if needed. My vehicle can also fit large dogs.
“Tiger was so comfortable and happy throughout his stay! We received lots of updates and communication while we were gone, and we would definitely book with Iris and Thomas again!”
“My dog had a wonderful time. LaTasha sent updates, was very communicative and professional during my dogs stay. If we ever need a sitter again and she's and available we will definitely book again.”
“She was absolutely amazing! I’m so happy to have someone like her in the neighborhood. She sent me lots of photos and videos, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Seeing how relaxed and happy my dog looked, I could tell she treated her like family. I would definitely love to ask her again next time!”

“Eden was great! She sent regular updates and my two little gremlins (🐱🐱) really liked her—my scaredy-cat the most! She was very responsive and friendly, and I highly recommend her.”
“Hannah was amazing while watching our girls. They quickly warmed up to her. She sent plenty of pictures and communication the entire time. She was also extremely flexible with our needs. I highly recommend Hannah for your pet sitting needs.”
“I had a short-notice quick trip and Samantha was able to respond and take care of my pets. Her service has been great from the start and this time was no exception.”
“Olivia is a very sweet person I was lucky enough to have take care of my precious cat Luna. She made sure she was well aware of her needs and went beyond her responsibilities by trying to just be a friend to Luna while I was away. I would recommend Olivia to anyone. 10 out of 10”
“Bettina was absolutely wonderful. My skiddish kitties let her pet them, so she must have cat whisperer powers! Great communication before and during the visits. Highly recommend her.”
“We’ve used Rover for cat sitting multiple times, but Stephanie is the first sitter we’ve had who not only has a strong work ethic but also genuinely loves our cat. Cats are incredibly intuitive, and ours could tell right away that Stephanie truly cares. From our cat’s interaction with her and even their behavior after she left, it was clear that they felt comfortable and happy with her. What sets Stephanie apart is how much she goes above and beyond. She not only ensures our cat’s needs are met but also makes a real effort to engage and entertain them—while always respecting their space and personality. This level of care and attention is rare among cat sitters we’ve had before. We feel so lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
“This was my first time allowing a stranger to come care for my cats and Celine was so amazing it put me at such ease! She communicated so well and took so many photos for me! 10/10 would recommend and trust again ❤️”
About: I’m a retired teacher and lifelong animal lover with years of hands‑on cat care experience. I currently have three cats of my own and have cared for sick or injured neighborhood cats who needed temporary care in my home. I’ve also helped with trap‑and‑release programs and understand how to support shy, cautious, or special‑needs kitties. Your cat will receive gentle attention, playtime, and a calm, loving presence. I’m comfortable with oral medications, special routines, and providing a peaceful, reassuring environment. I am Red Cross certified in Pet First Aid.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all ages and personalities. I have an 11-year-old maltese of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Growing up, I also helped care for family, friends’, and neighbors’ dogs, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, energy levels, and temperaments. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy or a drop-in visit for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, or just some extra company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s unique routine and needs. I know that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, so I’ll always provide updates and photos to help you feel connected and give you peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently on a career sabbatical, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’ve been spending my summer outdoors, walking local parks, exploring nature, and enjoying time fishing. Staying active and getting outside with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a drop-in visit while you’re at work, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule whenever possible. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big responsibility, and I don’t take that lightly. During every drop-in visit, I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, administering simple care instructions, or simply providing companionship while you’re away. I’ll treat both your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would my own. Communication is important to me, so you can expect timely updates, photos, and a summary of each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Wonderful first experience with Abbey! Great communication and my little Stella is usually so shy and barky to new people, but she warmed up instantly to Abbey on our initial meet and greet. I will definitely be booking again, thank you :)”
About: Hi, I’m Hope! I’ve always felt at home with animals, especially dogs. I believe every dog has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to understand what makes them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll meet them where they are with patience, kindness, and genuine care. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know your furry family member is happy and in good hands. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering basic medications if needed, and giving plenty of affection and companionship. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where your dog feels secure while you’re away. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’d love the opportunity to care for your best friend and become someone you can rely on whenever you need a helping hand.
About: Hi, my name is Marguerite :) I previously worked at a Veterinary clinic and have experience with both cats and dogs. To build trust and ensure safety, I make sure every animal is comfortable before I approach them and try to pet them. I read body language very well and am okay respecting an animal's space when needed. I will make sure that your baby is cared for and gets love as often as they want it! I specifically have experience living with cats. In the past, I’ve fostered a leukemia cat that required daily medication. Later on, I housed a friend’s cat over the summer. I’m a current student at UoM, so I may have to slightly adjust normal feeding/walking/potty times because of class or the occasional meeting but can always adapt to the routine that makes your pet happy :)

“Carolina was wonderful! She is so kind. Carolina allowed Murphy and us to meet prior to our first sitting day...Murphy was able check out her house/sniff around, which made us feel more comfortable dropping him off! We were able to meet her family as well which put us completely at ease-such wonderful kids! On Murphy's first day with Carolina, she sent pics and updates of our fur-baby settling in and comfortable at her home!! When I picked him up at the end of his day, I could tell he was happy and well cared for. We will be bringing Murphy back!! We are so happy we found Carolina! She is truly lovely and so good to our 'baby'.”
“Iris & Tomas helped watch our dog while we attended a pet first aid/CPR class nearby. This was our first time having anyone watch her, so we were a little nervous. They were able to squeeze us in last minute and do a meet and greet. They sent us many photos and played with her and kept her occupied until we could pick her up. We would definitely request them again if needed!”
“Cara was great! Responded quickly to my super last minute request to watch our 5 year old Vizsla. She was very friendly and kept us updated about our baby. We would recommend Cara and would book with her again. Thanks so much.”
“Irv is a fantastic sitter! He had no issues with taking care of our two dogs, one of whom is a senior dog with some anxiety issues. She did so well with him that we’re definitely coming back! Our younger pup also had a great time and got lots of playtime and cuddles. Irv gave plenty of walks and sent us photos and videos throughout the day to update us. We had special food instructions and that wasn’t a problem. Thank you so much!”
“Wonderful fun home for our pup! He has a great time! Highly recommend to others looking for a fun environment for their pup while they are out. We will definitely use them again when we are visiting the area”
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, so understanding their personalities and needs comes naturally. I've walked and cared for rescue dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels at the dog shelter I've volunteered in. I've also dog sat for friends and family over the years, and have even helped care for Rover clients' dogs on behalf of friends who were sitters. These experiences have taught me how important it is to provide not just basic care, but patience, consistency, and lots of affection. I treat every dog as if they were my own, whether they love long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with good company. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I'm employed full-time, but I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and can work from home when needed to provide attentive care for your pup. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I intend to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. An added bonus is that my wife, who's an even bigger dog lover than I am and has owned dogs throughout her life, is home during the day. That means your pup will have extra companionship, supervision, and lots of affection while staying with us. On weekends, we're both home and can dedicate our full attention to keeping your dog active, happy, and comfortable. The best care comes from keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're already familiar with. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, walking routine, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and any special instructions you provide. If your dog has medications, dietary restrictions, or favorite toys and activities, I'll make sure those needs are met. I enjoy playing with dogs, going on walks, and making sure they get both physical activity and time to relax. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I'll send regular photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away.

Has access to a large outdoor courtyard and 3-4 nearby parks I can walk your dogs to get ample exercise and playtime.
“Sara was amazing! She was available in a pinch for doggy daycare. Our pup truly enjoyed hanging out and having puppy playtime with her dog, Milo! We will definitely be using Sara’s services again in the future.”
“Magnolia was wiped out in the back seat before we got 10 minutes down the road! Exactly what she needs while mom and dad are at work. Brianna also sent pics and videos throughout the day, which was nice.”
“Stanley had an excellent adventure playing with Teddy and Violet at Laura’s house on Saturday. She was able to accommodate us with very short notice, and kept us updated on his fun day. Did you know that even cousin doodled poodles “recognize” each other? I’m sure they will all meet again.”

About: I’ve helped out family friends and neighbors with their furry friends through home visits, overnight pet sitting, and helping with getting their energy out. I have been aiding those in my community since I was in high school and continue to do so when I am back in Troy. I am currently a college student, however I find joy in helping out others when I’m in town. I’m certified in Red Cross and StarGuard life guarding and am no stranger to safety! Although my certifications apply to humans, I can apply these skills to ensuring safety of your furry friends. I have worked with family members with their own pets as therapy animals and engaged in care and listed regiments for numerous dogs I’ve watched over. I am no stranger to dogs, having had 4 dogs within my home growing up and having my fair share taking care of them. I am great with following rules and specifications given to me, especially when it comes to caring for pets; they are family and deserve to be treated as such. I work outside and I am no stranger to the sun! I am more than willing to take a pup around the block or lay with them in the sun to give them some fresh air; even in rain we can walk together and towel off later. Rain doesn’t stop the zoomies! Although I do not have as much professional experience with pets as some others, I hope to be given a chance with my life filled with pets and genuine care and compassion for helping others with how busy life can get. Take your vacation, worry less about your furry friends having their needs met, call on me as someone eager and determined to help! I currently work a part-time seasonal job as a lifeguard at the local aquatic center. My schedule varies week to week, however I have days off and variance within the week that leaves me free within the morning/afternoon. On the days with long shifts, I am unable to leave work, however on other days I am available for whatever is needed! I am an early riser and tend to go to sleep later, therefore any early mornings for late nights will not be a problem for the care I can provide. It would be preferred to care for your pets within your own home, however I do not expect to stay the night or be cared for. I have a place of my own, although if needed, staying the night is not a problem. I am more than willing to travel to your home to meet your pet there to care for them. I do have a dog within my home, however he is a recent rescue and for your own pets safety as well as the utmost care being provided, bring them to my own home is not applicable. He is a friendly pup, however any potential negative interactions is something I would like to avoid to keep your pet safe. I will come to you, no problem at all!

It’s clear that she goes above and beyond to make sure Molly is happy and well-cared for during their walks.

About: Hello! My name is Aiden. I'm a 20-year-old college student who has been pet-sitting since I was in high school. I have taken care of puppies and geriatric dogs and all ages in-between! I completed the Agriscience and Environmental Technologies course at Oakland Schools Technical Campus Northwest. The Animal Science track of the course taught me how to care of, groom, and manage the behavior of pets. I have taken care of a dog of my own since I was eight-years-old. His name is Bolt, and although he's gotten older and slowed down a bit since he was a puppy, he still has the most energy out of any 12-year-old dog I've ever seen! I'm currently on summer break from Michigan State University where I will be entering my final year as a Graphic Design Major in the fall. I have an internship with the USPBL on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but I still am free after 4:00 on those days, and on any other day of the week (besides Saturday 3:00-5:30 for mass)! I am a very attentive caretaker and always make sure that pets are properly fed, played with, walked, and given any medication needed. I also always make sure to clean up any messes I or the pet create, and let you know if I noticed anything off about the pet's movement or behavior. Unfortunately I cannot have pets in my house due to my dog who is used to being an only child.

I do have a big yard, but I also have a pretty long walking path i've figured out, and can help give them all kinds of loves and pets ! Just moved to Troy Michigan! :) Be patient and calm. Maintain their schedule as much as possible. Groom them when needed. Give them cozy and safe place to call Home. Clean water everyday!

“Lindsay has cared for my 3 dogs a few times now and she is amazing. I cannot say enough how wonderful she is. She is very thorough and attentive to my pets. My dogs just love her and get super excited to see her. When one of my pets needed medications and picky with taking them she was accommodating. One of my dogs is more shy and one more timid.

She is the absolute best, very knowledgeable, a lot of experience, very thorough, and sends updates and lots of photos daily.”
