We have an elderly dog who is showing limitations in her hearing and eyesight. Ava was very attentive to potential concerns or problems and contacted us immediately so we could determine if behavior was normal. Strongly recommend for caring for your pets.

Maurissa was great to work with! She looked after our 3 dogs (2 of whom have anxiety) while we were out of town and did a wonderful job. Highly recommend her, and we’ll request her again in the future for sure!

It was my first time using Rover and Michelle provided a great first experience! She was very helpful with the app and gave insight on what to expect with Rover services. She got along great with my timid cat, gave fantastic visit updates, and provided plenty of pictures so that I knew my cat was happy and healthy. I would strongly recommend using Michelle!

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and bring both experience and genuine care to every pet I watch. I was raised on a farm surrounded by animals, and I’ve owned dogs for most of my life, including a small dog I cared for over 16 years. I currently have an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy, so I’m very comfortable with puppy energy, routines, and reinforcement of basic training. I work as a teacher Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. Because of this, I’m most available for pet care in the mornings, evenings, and overnight stays during the week. My schedule also allows for consistent availability on weekends, holidays, and school breaks, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routines and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship outside of my work hours.

Danielle is great! Went out of town for a week and she dropped in daily to feed and check on our cats. She constantly updated me about the pets and followed instructions we left for them. She is great!

Laura was so wonderful with our sweet Henry! It’s really hard for us to trust someone new with our dog but we just had a really good feeling about Laura - and we were right! Even outside of dog sitting my husband and I knew immediately she is a wonderful and genuine person - which matters when your fur child is with someone new! She sent updates/pictures and was very detailed - which we love! We definitely will be using her again soon ?

Travis was absolutely fantastic with our sweet Sadie Rose. Our lovely girl is quite high maintenance due to her large size (Blue Merle Great Dane) and her medical issues from old age. He was caring and truly concerned for her well-being along with great communication and pictures of girl (also a few pics of our silly cats). Travis was on time and went above and beyond for us and our girl, Sadie. Highly recommend Travis!!

Brianna was amazing! She took great care of our dog while we were gone. She was always easy to reach and communicate with, and promptly responded to any questions we had. She sent us videos and photos while we were away and our dog looked so happy in all of them. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely book with her again.

About: Trusted pet sitter with years of rescue & foster experience. Specializing in cats and small-to-medium dogs—including terriers, labs, retrievers & hounds. As a long-time animal lover, foster, and rescue volunteer, I understand how much your pets mean to you because mine mean the world to me, too. Over the years, I’ve welcomed dogs and cats from all walks of life into my home, offering patience, care, and love while they wait for their families, whether for the weekend or forever. At home, I share life with two wonderful companions: Gus, my gentle Maine Coon mix who became my gardening sidekick after finding me one summer in the Franklin Park neighborhood, and Dennis, my sweet and shy miniature poodle whom I fostered and then adopted. I’ve fostered several dogs this year and have loved and learned from them all. Each has their own story, and together they remind me daily of the joy pets bring into our lives. I’ve cared for many animals over the years, from Jack Russell mixes Daisy and her daughter Pearl, to a big-hearted hound named Andy, to rescued puppy-mill survivors like Dennis. My rescue work includes everything from daily feeding and walks to helping shy or fearful dogs feel safe again. I even keep a carrier in my car just in case I come across a lost animal because I believe in helping wherever I can. I’ve also had unique opportunities, like caring for two cavapoos during a stay in Washington State. Experiences like these deepened my love for one-on-one pet care, especially calm walks, drop-in visits, and creating safe, low-stress environments. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. Between caring for my own pets and fostering through rescue, my days already include walks, playtime, feedings, and plenty of cuddles. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to fit in drop-in visits and walks throughout the day or evening. Weekends are often open for longer visits or extra time with your pets. Because I live with both cats and a small dog, I’m experienced at balancing different needs and personalities, and I always bring that same patience and consistency to every pet I care for. Whether it’s a quick midday walk, a calm evening check-in, or weekend companionship, I make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and part of my daily rhythm. I care for my own pets — and those in my home — with love, attentiveness, and respect for their unique routines. I follow my housemate’s preferences when caring for her cat, just as I did in my previous home with three beloved dogs, each with their own needs and quirks. I bring that same level of care to every client visit. Whether I'm walking your pup or dropping in to check on your cat, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and happy in your absence. Providing a detailed list of your pet’s routine and preferences helps me deliver the best possible care and gives us both peace of mind. Finally, I’m currently pursuing Red Cross Pet First Aid certification to provide an extra layer of safety and peace of mind for the pets I care for. While I already bring years of foster and rescue experience, I believe in always learning more to give every pet the best possible care.

About: I grew up in a house full of animals! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, and fish since I was a kid. I dog-sat and cat-sat for my neighbors growing up. I also have 2 cats of my own now 🙂 I work full-time as an SLP at an elementary school. I wanted to keep doing this on the side because I love animals ☺️ I am not available weekdays until after around 4:30/5pm. I am free all day on weekends, though! I am off for summers so May 23-August 1 I am available all day! I will ensure that your pet’s harness and/or leash is secure. I will make sure to keep doors closed to ensure your pet does not get out.
