“Kristina was outstanding. We have 3 dogs & 2 cats that she sat for, for over a week. She kept me up to date with pictures and notes every single day. She took out my garbage, brought up the bins, brought in mail,& left a detailed note when we returned about each pet. I think they’re all going to miss her, so I’m definitely hiring her again. It’s a great feeling to know someone is loving on your pet while you’re away, & I had total peace of mind my entire vacation thanks to Kristina.”
“Kelsey and Jordan were amazing! Our dog came down with pretty serious health problems the week before we had to leave town. Even with everything going on, we felt so comfortable leaving her in their care. They were attentive, communicative, caring, honest, and present. We have the highest regards for Kelsey and Jordan. Thank you so much for caring for our loved one!”
“Zoe sent updates and pictures continuously and played and walked Jack everyday and snuggled with him. He was happy and healthy upon my return. She was very flexible with changing expectations of travel plans and early return. Jack will be happy to be seeing her more often for all my trips.”
“Olivia was our first experience with Rover and having anyone watch our dog outside of our family. She made us feel comfortable the entire time and was great about sending at least a couple of updates everyday. Our dog ended up having unexpected stomach issues and Olivia handled it with ease even monitoring her and waking up with her in the middle of the night. She left the house cleaner than when we left. We cannot recommend Olivia enough!”
“Mariah was fantastic! Our nervous dog has a hard time when we leave and Mariah was so great with him! He was nervous at first but warmed up quickly and was happy to follow her everywhere. She sent regular updates, left the house in perfect condition, and even left a little “doggy report card” which was so nice to come home to. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Kaycee was very attentive to our 3 Saints. We don't go away much due to Boris having seizures, but Kaycee took the time to spend with us to go over all of his special needs and to learn what he needed in case he did have a seizure. Thankfully, Boris did not have a seizure and all was well. Kaycee stayed at our house with the 3 of them and ensured they were taken care of in our absence. Thank you, Kaycee and the 3 of them are missing you.”
“We had such a great experience with Deena! She was incredibly kind, professional, and clearly loves animals. She was happy to meet our dogs beforehand, which really put our minds at ease. Everything went smoothly while we were away, and we came home to happy pups. Would absolutely book her again without hesitation!”
“This is my first time using Monica. She was very sweet to my handsome, blind Pit Bull. She is attentive to details and appreciated her being punctual. Looking forward to using her again.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Karen and how she cares for your pets and your home. She is a wonderful person and I’m so grateful to have found her!”
“Byron was great to my two dogs. I’m especially surprised at how well my girl dog liked him because she doesn’t normally warm up to men. But he has a way with dogs to make them feel safe and loved even from their first meet. I was gone for 4 days and Byron stayed at my house. He was polite, respectful and amazing to my doggies. He sent me pics and videos and I could clearly see how happy they were. Byron is great at communicating and helping out in any way possible. We will definitely be a repeat client! Thanks Byron for taking such good care of my babies.”
About: I have been volunteering at Humane Society of Macomb and have fostered all sorts of pets from bottle-fed kittens to giant labs. I have 3 pets (4 if you count my beloved fish!) and have grown up around animals and am super comfortable with all types. I am very flexible and willing to make multiple trips to your home. I do have a part time job but I can definitely work around it. I unfortunately cannot bring a pet to my home but I am willing to visit your home. I am very flexible and able to come to the house at any time working around my part time job. I am willing to make multiple trips to look after your pets and am open to anything like dog walking, feeding the pets, playing with the pets, and cleaning up after them. I am very experienced with all types of pets and understand how to read pet body language. I will be willing to work out the perfect schedule for taking care of your pet and will make sure everything you need is done.
About: As far back as I can remember I have always had a fondness for dogs. This love and obsession has pushed me to pursue a career in the canine world, and now I currently manage a dog daycare/hotel franchise as my day job. But even when I’m not there, I am always with a dog. Whether it is my own, a friends, or a family member, I keep the best and the furriest of company! I am familiar with many types of breeds and personally prefer the big and fluffy, or even the more intimidating looking pups. But big or small I love them all and I believe earning a dogs trust is more valuable than gold! I do work full time during the week but I am available anytime after 2:00 Monday through Friday. I have open availability on the weekends If your dog has a set routine I can accommodate their needs however necessary. I also have my own pup that I can bring along to give yours a friend!

Since I've known him over the last several years, he has been dedicated to protecting and keeping Brinkley and all other dogs under his care safe.

Yates pet parents share their Rover experiences
Karen did an outstanding job. We have a 15 1/2 year old jack Russel/beagle who has arthritis in her back legs. Karen was so kind and moved at her pace. Short walks, some topper for her food and some time to let our girl rest. Our dog got along great with her Dog. We had a couple meet and greets leading up to our vacation which helped her anxiety and ours! Karen also sent updates and pictures every morning. Seeing her happy put our minds at ease. I would highly recommend Karen!
Samantha is such a caring, loving person and would do anything to protect the animals she is caring for. I never had to worry about them while I was away. She sent me photos of them and walked them just like they were her own pets. I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone and plan to schedule her again.
