“Brianna is always my go-to Rover! She’s so thorough and loving with Leo and Luna! I would recommend her to anyone and especially people who are trying Rover out for the first time!”


“Very punctual. Took good care of my older dog! Kept me updated on each visit!”


“Allyssa did such an amazing job caring for my cat Stewie, I trust her completely for future drop in visits! She shared detailed photos in her reports which brought me a lot of comfort while I was on vacation, as I’ve had not so great experiences with other Rover sitters. I came home to a happy healthy cat and everything was as it should be. She genuinely loves animals and cares for them as she would her own. I’m so thankful to have found her!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all kinds, from playful puppies to senior dogs, cats, and even small animals like guinea pigs. As a current owner of two large dogs and a cat, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust while you’re away. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every pet like family. Whether your pet needs exercise, snuggles, special care, or just a buddy to hang with, I’m here to give them the attention and love they deserve. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer pet care on the side. I’m available for daily check-ins, walks, feedings, playtime, and overnight stays. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority to give your pets attentive and loving care while fitting it smoothly into my routine. I care for pets in their own home to ensure they stay comfortable in a familiar environment. My home isn’t large enough to safely accommodate additional animals, and I want to prioritize the health and well-being of both my pets and yours by keeping them separate. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely; feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. I keep things clean, calm, and low-stress, and I always provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

“Katie is amazing! My dogs warmed up to her right away & they love her! Katie is an excellent communicator, very conscientious & was great with my dogs. I felt at ease knowing Katie was taking excellent care of my babies! I highly recommend Katie.”


“Absolutely amazing! Great with the dogs and the cats. Provided fun play time and was very attentive to their needs. Gave helpful feedback on pets and sent really fun photos!”


About: My experience includes taking care of dogs to bird since I was seven years old. The availability of my week includeds anytime for drop offs, 11pm for show ups. Special skills include lot of walking and playing with toys. Maybe even go to the dog park if okay or getting ice cream on hot days? I must also know all the rules the family has for there pests please. I will follow these said rules to the best of my ability for each pacific dog. Though out the day I would like to show the parents of each dog a video via phone or at the end of the day. This provides proof of the fun and safe day we have had. Thank you for your time.

About: Familiar with herding and working dog breeds, Senior dogs, reactive dogs, giving medication, cats, horses, and birds! I’m comfortable with stubborn and smart high energy dogs. I am also an approved foster for two area rescue groups. I currently work full time outside of my home and can offer brief overnight stays, dog walking, playtime and visits. Cats are always welcome anytime. If you have horses that need feeding and turnout, I can take care of that too with over 15 years of equestrian experience and past Pony Clubber. Experience with ex racehorses, Arabians, hunter, jumper, eventers, and dressage. I have a yard fenced on three sides. Dogs are never left unattended. I have one dog who is both dog and cat friendly and one cat that keeps to himself. Walks are long and have lots of sniffs. I have a ton of toys, enrichment toys, and leash options. I am close to parks, and dogs get lots of outdoor time. I love a good cat cuddle.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from small to big for about 10 years now. I have a 4 year old Husky-Shepard of my own and live two two other huskies in my household.

“Highly recommend Kara!”

About: I’m an animal lover with 5+ years experience caring for dogs and cats. I find a genuine joy in spending time with pets and will do whatever I can to make your life easier regarding their care. I’m attentive, communicative, and willing to send a truly absurd number of photos to ease any anxiety being away from them. I have experience administering pill medication and will diligently check any special instructions you may include. I’m a freelance classical musician with a love for pets. My weeks can be fairly variable with 8-4 M to Fri and Sunday nights being the most consistent availability. Routines are important to a pet’s wellbeing and I strive to ensure those needs are met in my care. This includes following normal feeding times, dietary requirements, and giving them regular attention and exercise. Any behavioral information about your pet is useful as I can be conscious of environmental stressors like storms or loud noises and respond appropriately. I also like to keep an eye on symptoms of any pet allergy or medical issues such as hey fever or ear infections. While your pet is in my care, I strongly value consistent communication as a way to ensure your pet’s needs are met, reduce owner stress during the separation, and prevent any logistical issues regarding travel.

“This was our second time having Tonya watch our cats. She did a great job, we got regular updates, and the fur babies were happy and healthy when we returned!”


“Gabrielle was wonderful with my cats! She is responsive, flexible, and kept me updated with pics. I’d definitely have her take care of my fur babies again.”


“She did a great job with my cats!”


“Lisa is wonderful! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pets are taken care of well. I think my two pups prefer her now - they seemed bored when we got home, haha. She goes the extra mile and sends lots of updates and pictures. I highly recommend Lisa!”


About: I’ve been caregiver for dogs, cats, exotics and farm animals over the last 9 years. Feeding, walking, medications, medical treatments, enrichment, waste cleanup and brushing/nails.

I will follow the client’s requests given for a pet’s care and additional tasks if necessary. Cleanup, grooming, waste cleanup of yard, bathing, nail trims.

“Andrew was great! He was very responsive, kind, and always completed the visits on time. Nala was well taken care of. Would definitely book again.”

About: I’ve pet sat for family in the past! I’m around animals a lot! So I’d say I’m pretty comfortable around them :D Specifically horses, dogs and cats! I’m not a professional but I’m planning on becoming an equine vet in the future so any extra experience with animals will help me build my resume :) As of recently I quit my full-time job to find better opportunities. My schedule is pretty flexible atm! One thing I will add tho is that I’ll most likely be working another part time job while doing this, so If need be, I may have to shift some days around to accommodate for that. I’ll provide your furry friend with all of its necessities, Including; feeding, walking, playing, pet sitting (just for a couple of hours or overnight if needed) light grooming (brushing, bathing and, trimming! But only if your pet is comfortable!)

Jeffrey T.
“Jeffrey is such a responsible and caring pet owner and has watched my small dog (Milo, Boston Terrier) a number of times when my schedule gets hectic. He treats my dog like one of his own and is mindful of his routine and the little things that help make my dog comfortable (food times, bathroom trips, blankets and toys). I don't like leaving Milo with others but Jeff has been one of the few I really trust if there were ever an emergency.”

Ypsilanti dog parents share their Rover experiences
Eileen is the best! My dog was having anxiety their first time alone together without me and she went above and beyond to gain her trust. Today’s visit went very smoothly and Spicy is a happy pup tonight!

Andy was a wonderful last-minute find for us. They were friendly, personable, made sure to meet the dogs ahead of time (and came prepared with treats!). Everyone was well taken care of and we enjoyed getting photo updates while we were gone. 10/10 would book again 💖

Silvia was wonderful and provided great care for my pets, including medication for my one cat. She was very communicative and responsive and made me feel confident that they were cared for well we were away.

Laurel is so patient with our special needs dog! It’s such a relief to know our pup is loved and cared for when we are at work. Highly recommend!

Mikaela was a life saver! She even dropped by 2X a few days to help keep Rosie company. I would highly recommend Mikaela - she is responsible, friendly and kind. She did a great job and we hope to see her again!

Isabelle has watched our little pup several times and he loves her! She is reliable, punctual and very communicative. I highly recommend her!

TJ did a great job of looking after our pup and cat when we had to travel out of town for 5 days on short notice. TJ did 2x daily drop ins and kept us posted through the app with pictures and updates after each visit. The animals and the house were in great shape when we returned.

Katie is amazing! My dogs warmed up to her right away & they love her! Katie is an excellent communicator, very conscientious & was great with my dogs. I felt at ease knowing Katie was taking excellent care of my babies! I highly recommend Katie.

Luca has watched our dog and cats twice and been awesome! Super communicative and thorough, would recommend them to anyone!!

I’ve never used Rover or any dog sitting service before but Anthony has been a great help to me recently with taking care of my two dogs. Between watching them in the yard, cleaning muddy paws and dealing with the crazy licking lol he’s been great with all of it and keeping me updated on every visit. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who is considerate of their pets and home.
