“Christiana and her family took excellent care of Nola while we were away. She sent daily pics & updates which made us feel at ease that Nola was being well taken care of and enjoying her stay. We will definitely have Nola stay again! ❤️”
“Our pup had a great stay with Rebecca and Matthew! I was really looking for a home with a family that would interact with her regularly, meet her high energy needs and be able to have her in a calm, family environment ~ they were excellent in providing our pup with everything we were hoping for, and they truly went above and beyond! We are so pleased with her stay; with it being our first Rover experience, we were very relieved with the overall experience, and highly recommend Rebecca and her family.”

“Scott, Ashley and family take such good care of our 92 lb. Weimaraner, Hank. He has a lot of energy and always does well when with the family. He gets at least 2 walks a day in addition to play time in their large fenced in yard. Hank recently stayed with the family for 25 days which is the longest we’ve left him with any sitter. Everything went very well. Scott is great about sending pictures and updates daily.”

“Mary was absolutely wonderful to work with!! She was so accommodating and my dogs loved her! She sent updates every day and I felt so comfortable knowing they were being so well taken care of (and spoiled). Finding a dog sitter that I can trust and that I feel like my dogs will do well with has been a challenge, but I think I have found my "regular dog sitter!" I am looking forward to working with Mary again. I would highly recommend her ~ especially for lower energy, senior dogs.”
“We are so very grateful for Marie. She welcomed our doggy into her house with all the love and attention we could hope for. We were blessed with photos while we were traveling which gave us comfort and made us smile. Our dog came back to us, happy, healthy, clean, and comfortable, which was perfect. Thank you again, Marie.”

Caring for her and her kittens from the very beginning deepened my love and commitment to animals. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to provide them with safe, loving, and attentive care.
“If I could leave more stars I would! This was a first time for us hiring a sitter for our furbaby, and it worked out so much better than I could have imagined. Hannah was purrfect for us and really spent time with him and made sure he got the attention and love he needed while we were away. She was so attentive and caring the whole time, I don’t have to worry about him at all I knew right away he was in good hands. I really like the way the app works and the fact they can send pictures and videos and you know when they get there and when they leave. I will definitely be utilizing Hannah again when the times comes.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals, my entire life. It doesn’t matter if it’s fish, rabbits, dogs, or cats. I’ve only had two cats. In my lifetime. However, I’ll tell you some stories about them. When I was younger, my parents had a farm cat named Misty. I learned how to take care of Misty at a very young age because Misty was around when I was born. I learned how to feed Misty, give Misty water, clean out the litter pan, and also just play with Misty inside of the house. Misty was a house cat and stayed in the house at all times. After Misty passed away, my family got a Maine Coon cat named Cowboy. Cowboy was approximately eight months when we got Cowboy and again, I learned the skills of taking care of Cowboy, no matter if it was feeding Cowboy, getting Cowboy exercise or cleaning out the litter pan. Cowboy was again an inside cat and I helped Cowboy exercise in the house by using a laser light to get Cowboy to chase it or even just petting Cowboy and giving Cowboy attention. Because all cats like to be petted and snuggle up with you, while you sit and watch tv. I would be happy to stop at your house and help with your cat along with letting them outside if they go outside. Have taken care of cats while owners are gone.

About: I have taken care of my own pets, as well as many others in my home. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me with their loved pets! I am currently working part time and mostly from home.

I’m available full time, typically start dog runs at 9:00am and love to go on hikes (weather permitting) I am open to any additional pet requests.

About: Hello! I'm Susu and I would love to care for your pet. I've been caring for animals since a very young age. My family and I would always bring in and care for fosters and strays, along with our own. Learning to train pups at such a young age has made it one of my biggest passions. I understand that every dog is different and it's all about learning who they are. I adapt and adjust to any dogs needs until they are happy and comfortable. Of course playtime is great but I will also inforce balance by having them do tricks and giving rewards. I believe in positive reinforcement and encouraging them to be their best furry selves. I will truly love your pet like my own. I do have a dog of my own named lexus. She is a rescue so she can be a little wary of strangers but is never shy around another furry friend! She has been socialized all of her life and loves to run and play. She understands social cues very well so if the other dog is uninterested in playing she will leave them alone. If Lexus and your dog meet I'm sure they will be best of friends! Whether it's just a walk or they stay a few nights I cant wait to meet your pup! My schedule is very flexible. I am a stay at home mom, photographer, mua and an artist. I am open to last minute scheduling if needed or scheduling something further in advance. Something consistent and on going would be preferred but if it’s just a one time thing that is okay with me as well! For walks we will go on a walk around the block. If needed we will work on not pulling the leash. For a boarding visit I will get them all set up and comfortable in my house. If it’s nice out we will go for a walk and play outside. Playing indoors as well and working on tricks they know or maybe learning a new one. Potty breaks will be provided whenever needed and food will be given as directed.
“Gianina watched my 7 month old puppy for 4 consecutive days. She was awesome to work with and each day my puppy came home happy, healthy, and tired. I truly appreciate her caring for him so well and I would absolutely book with her again in the future.”
“Mary and Hanna are AWESOME! We were so worried about leaving our baby alone so we looked into other alternatives. Leaving him with them was the best choice we could have made. Loads of cute pics and the opportunity for him to socialize with other pups. Would completely recommend Mary and Hanna to anyone looking for the best pup care!??”

About: Hello! My family and I love animals. We've been on Rover since January 2024! We currently have 2 indor cats and have backyard chickens (in coop) that are pets and lay eggs for us. We live in a quiet Hartland neighborhood in a cul-de-sac that is very low traffic. Part of our yard is fenced for play and potty breaks, and I love taking walks around our neighborhood. The majority of the week, my husband is working from home or I am home. The longest your pet may be left is 6 hours if staying with us during the work week. So usually someone is there to spend time with your pet! We are available any day of the week for boarding. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac. I always practice sit-stay when opening the door to prevent bolting out. Part of our yard is fenced and outside the fence your pet will always be leashed. If I am away for a short period and it's needed for safety or per your preference, we do have a large crate and an enclosed pet gate.
About: As an Airbnb super host I take pride in my customer experience. Over the past 5 years I've had over 300+ five star reviews. I'd like to carry my experience and care to your animals and provide the best service possible. I grew up providing care for pitbulls and Rottweilers, but love all size and breeds of dogs. I'm a huge advocate of pet therapy, and understand the benefit for both the dog and the handler. While caring for your pet I intend to have a different experience with every encounter. Weather it's going for a long walk, playing catch, catching some rays, or going for a swim. I'm also continuing my education in pet message and alternative medicine for those pets of special needs.
About: I have always had a dog growing up, so I learned from a very young age how to care for a pet. Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their dogs since I was around 12 years old. This includes stopping in the house to take them to the bathroom and feeding them, as well as giving medication if needed. Lots of snuggles and playtime too of course! I have taken care of dogs in the client's home for up to a week and cared for them at my home as well. No need to worry about any complex feeding schedules. I can manage it all. I am very comfortable with any age, breed, and sized dog! I have a one-year-old pup, so I am very familiar with training and puppy classes. I have volunteered at the humane society and when I was in high school, I job shadowed at a veterinary clinic. I currently work as a substitute teacher so my schedule is extremely flexible! During the summer months I am completely open. Weekdays and weekends any time of day. I make my own schedule so there will be no conflicts. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for some off leash playtime! My dog loves to run around playing fetch with a ball or stick. I have a walking path across the street from my home and am walking distance to nature hill for some extra exercise. I always have water, waste bags and small treats with me when going on walks. (My dogs personal favorites are cheerios). I am comfortable walking with any leash, collar or harness. I have two kennels in my living room if your dog needs to be crated. At least one crate is big enough to fit a large or XL dog. I have a baby gate in front of my stairs, and the basement door is always shut. I personally love going to the pet store or drive thru to get my pet a pup cup! I would be more than happy to take your dog for an adventure and for some extra love and enrichment!

I understand how keeping dogs happy and cared for is vital to ‘owners.’ I have a very flexible and open schedule! I like to take my own dog for longer walks to get energy out and relax our minds together. I love playing with them so they’re not just sitting around unhappy. It’s important to me to make sure all of their needs are met as I believe this affects longevity and overall well-being.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always been a huge part of who I am. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of sharing my home with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, a rabbit, birds, and even reptiles—so I’m comfortable with a wide variety of pet personalities and needs. My fiancé and I currently have five cats, and they keep life fun, active, and full of love. I have a deep compassion for animals of all kinds and all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve also taken in several strays over the years, helping reunite them with their owners or finding them safe, loving homes. That experience has made me especially attentive, responsible, and intuitive when it comes to animal care. I truly value time outdoors and believe regular walks and activity are key to a happy, healthy pet. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with love, attention, and respect. I work part time as a massage therapist this leaves lots of times available for in home pet care. My schedule can be open more then what days/times I have on my profile. Currently I'd be coming to your home to care for or walk your pet. If needed I could possibly board. I do have 5 cats, they sleep most of the day.

“My dog had a wonderful time at this house and I received many pictures of her having fun. The family was also accommodating to our needs when we had some trouble getting back at the time we predicted.”
“Monique was great! Communicated everyday to let me know how Roscoe was doing and sent him home with a great report card that let me know overall how things went. Roscoe had a great time there!!”
“Scott, Ashley and family take such good care of our 92 lb. Weimaraner, Hank. He has a lot of energy and always does well when with the family. He gets at least 2 walks a day in addition to play time in their large fenced in yard. Hank recently stayed with the family for 25 days which is the longest we’ve left him with any sitter. Everything went very well. Scott is great about sending pictures and updates daily.”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“We are so very grateful for Marie. She welcomed our doggy into her house with all the love and attention we could hope for. We were blessed with photos while we were traveling which gave us comfort and made us smile. Our dog came back to us, happy, healthy, clean, and comfortable, which was perfect. Thank you again, Marie.”
“Once again Katie and DJ have taken excellent care of my special needs pup. He is so happy to go to their house, he doesn’t even care that I am leaving. LOL 😂 seriously amazing family that love the animals they care for.”
“Yolanda was amazing, she took amazing care of my dog,. he was spoiled, walked, cuddled and she even got him to play nice with another older dog! I truly appreciate a sitter that i can trust! she was knowledgeable, her family was calm and welcomed Gaige. Book her you won't be disappointed we will be back hopefully next month!”
“Denise cared for our pups twice in the past few weeks. She not only made our pups feel welcome but she was also very flexible with our hectic schedule. She has a beautiful fenced in yard that kept them safe. She took them for walks and they had a great time. I really appreciated her quick response to any questions as well as updates and pictures. I am very grateful to her and would recommend her to anyone in need.”
“Dana is wonderful! She takes good care of Hunter and sends pictures/ videos often. We really appreciate all the attention she gives him, and she is also super flexible. Thanks again, Dana! We appreciate you!😊”
“Ryan was awesome with your pup Kimber over the weekend! He provided updates throughout and asked questions when needed. Him and Dexter wore our pup out! We look forward to having Ryan watch Kimber again in the future. Highly recommend Ryan! Thank you, Ryan and Dexter, very much for this weekend!”
“This was our first time using Rover. We had last minute work done in our house where the cats had to be gone. Aidan and Dani were amazingly patient with our four cats who have quite unique personalities.”
“Sherry is fantastic!! She is so attentive, responsive, and treats our little fur baby with so much kindness and love! 🩷 I really appreciate all the pictures and updates during our dog’s stay with her! We will absolutely be booking with Sherry again! ☺️”
“April and family were amazing! I was nervous at first, however quickly was at ease with all the updates and photos I received. They treated Allie like family and she looked so happy hanging out with them I wasn’t sure she would want to come home! Hahaha”
