About: Hello! I’m Grace aka the dog whisperer 😊 Caring for dogs is truly my passion, both at home and professionally. I have two dogs of my own, one who is two years old and one who is eleven, so I’m very familiar with the different needs, energy levels, temperaments, and care styles that come with both puppies/young adults and senior dogs. Aside from that, I have a rescue dog of my own who is two years old. I currently work as a canine care specialist and kennel attendant, where I care for dogs every day of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From very small dogs to large breeds like Great Danes and Great Pyrenees, I’m comfortable handling a wide range of needs. My responsibilities include feeding, potty breaks, safe socialization, and making sure each dog is comfortable, secure, and well cared for. I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and attentiveness, and I always treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care that helps both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine, both personally and professionally. I work in the pet care field during the week, so caring for animals is something I do daily and genuinely enjoy. At this time, my availability is primarily on weekends, which are generally open unless I communicate otherwise in advance. I’m very upfront about my schedule and always make sure expectations are clear so pets receive consistent, attentive care. Because pet care is already a major part of my life, I’m comfortable building it into my routine and giving each dog the time, patience, and attention they deserve. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, loving, and secure environment. Exercise and playtime are a big part of my approach to care. I make sure each dog gets appropriate physical activity and mental stimulation based on their age, energy level, and routine. Along with plenty of play and affection, I stay consistent with the basics, regular feeding, fresh water at all times, and close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with complete respect. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain routines, and make sure the home is left just as it was found. I believe trust is earned through reliability, communication, and genuine care, and I always strive to make both pets and owners feel comfortable and at ease.
“Thank you so much Angela! We were nervous going out of town for the first time after adopting Zilla, but you put our worries right at ease. We really appreciated the meet-and-greet, all of the communication, and the photos! We’ll definitely be reaching out again next time we’re taking a trip. :)”
“Jessica was amazing, responded straight away and was very responsible, she took great care of Gizmo and went above and beyond of what was asked, I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica, so glad I found you 😁 Mandy B”
“Haley was great. She did so well with Max. He had such a good time, I could tell by all the pics. She was prompt and on time and very communicative. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: I've been taking care of my neighborhood friends' pets(Yorkie and Sheetsy). I have a young half-Lab sweety girl and would love to take care of your family member I'm fully free to sit, walk and adore your pet with possible over-night stays on Saturdays and Sundays (work days by request) in Oakland county, MI I can take your pet to my appartement by request for over-night stays and walking. Over-night stays at your property by request, treats for your pets is on me :)
About: Within my 20 years of vast experience with animals. I currently have three dogs of my own and have fostered dogs as well as rescued abandoned cats. I'm a certified dog groomer as well as currently working on my certification for animal massage therapy that will include dogs, cats, and horses. I currently am working full-time so as of right now I'm available 10:am - 1:pm. weekdays and after 4:30 p.m.. I always use precaution and safety measures when taking care of animals. I will follow all instructions from the owner. I currently have three dogs myself and previously have owned cats and ferrets, so I'm well aware of precautions and safety issues to prevent anything from happening.
About: I don’t currently have a dog of my own but I grew up with them and love them! I have two kitties at home who are very loved and spoiled. I can feed, brush, play with, and walk your pets as needed. I’m currently a stay at home mom to a sweet toddler boy and my husband works from home so my visit schedule can be pretty flexible to meet your needs. I can easily feed, play with, and clean up after your pets. I’ll always treat your home and your animals like they are my own.
About: I’m a dog and cat lover with a Golden Retriever and older cat of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I work from home part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide care when you need it. I’m happy to care for your pet in my home or yours—or simply stop by for some company, playtime, walks, and attention. Whether you need regular care, occasional help, or just want your pet to have a little extra love while you’re away, I’d love to help! I am currently working full-time. However, I work from home, so I can easily provide care at any time. I have my own pets at home and I don't like to be gone for longer than 4 hours without taking them out. I would prefer to take care of pets in their environment but I always treat them like family. I prefer complete honesty if a dog is fearful or tends to run or hide. Pets are like family and I take that responsibility very seriously.

They will surely love our Canine Care! ***Fleas and Ticks are on the prowl, proof of prevention must be shown at or before drop-off.

About: My family and I had our own dog for thirteen years. She passed away a couple years ago and we are looking forward to having some dog joy back in our house. We have a twelve year old daughter that loves dogs as well. We live in a subdivision with sidewalks and would love to take your pup on walks. Your pup will have free roam of the house and be allowed on furniture and our bed (if that is what you would like). Your pup will be the only pup at my house at the time of boarding. I only allow one dog at my house at a time. They will be my top priority. There is nothing I would love to do more than take care of your pup. I am a teacher and work school hours during the year (7-3:30) and am home on the breaks and summer vacation. I am available all week and weekend and am flexible. I will follow your directions. I have a large back yard. I will care for your dog based on the instructions you give me. Your dog is welcome on any surface of my home. Dog must be potty trained to go outside (not accepting pups that use pee pads) and dog must be non shedding (our daughter had allergies).

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Walled Lake stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Walled Lake choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Walled Lake with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
