House Sitting in Albion

“Wonderful! We had a long trip where we had NO service and Ellen was still sending updates and photos. We had no issues. Our house was in the same condition we left it in. Our boys can be a handful and Ellen handled them beautifully. Definitely will be rebooking!!”

“Rodney was absolutely great with our dogs/cat! Received LOTS of great pictures of all our fur-babies while we were gone, and he went above and beyond taking care of our house and daily chores (which he absolutely did not have to do, but we came home to that surprise!). Would absolutely rebook him again, and highly recommend him to anyone looking to take care of your pets!”

“Kent is great! My dog is really anxious and has a lot of energy. He doesn’t warm up to people quickly but they became best buds right away. My dog was exhausted when I got home. The last time I had to use a dog sitter my dogs eating habits would change and showcase a lot of separation anxiety every time! This time I returned to a happy well adjusted puppy who had a great time with his best friend. My house was spotless when I returned home as well. Thanks!”

“Lilly was a great communicator, sent daily pictures, and followed all care instructions. Came home to a happy pup and spotless home. Will work with Lilly in the future and would recommend her to others.”

“If we could give Amanda six stars we would! She was prompt and communicated through the entire trip. She made sure that our boy was taken care of and loved just as we were home. Will always ask for her help! Thank you Amanda”

“Was very satisfied with the overall experience. House was exactly as we left it when we returned. Puppies were excited to see us too. Nicole even cleaned up the dog poo in the back yard, yeah bonus!”

Mark S.

“Heather house- and dog-sat for us over the weekend as our first experience with Rover and it went great. We were updated with photos of our dogs once she arrived (we had already left) and she was very responsive all along the way. It couldn't have gone any better.”

“Would love to have Lauren back to babysit my babies anytime!!!”

Nick B.

“Libby was fantastic with our fur babies..I am so happy we found her and will definitely be asking for help again. She updated us regularly and we felt we left our home and pets in good hands!”

Christina M.

“Nadia went above and beyond. She took our pup paddle boarding & on a hike. I think our dog has a new best friend! Nadia left our apartment sparkling clean. I highly recommend booking with her!”

About: Dogs and cats and lizards, oh my! I’ve done it all. For the first 18 years of my life I’ve had experience walking dogs, house sitting, and raising my own pets. Then I began working at a summer camp where I was partially responsible for taking care of our reptile family - crested geckos, bearded dragons, and ball pythons and were just some of the cuties I got to take care of. Since then I have taken care and owned cats, dogs, and lizards of my own and on the side have house sat and loved many family and friends pets while they’re gone. I even have experience with some medical administration such as insulin shots to a feisty cat and pills to the dog I currently own. I can’t wait to get acquainted with your family member :) My schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most any time a pet needs taken care of, including during the work day and weekends. I have three dogs, one cat and a crested gecko currently who are all very loved and spoiled by myself, my husband and our almost two year old. We’ve taught all the dogs recall, leash training and how to be gentle around young children. Our cat is an old man with feline herpes, one of our dogs needs daily oral medication and the juvenile gecko gets extra attention as he continues growing.

About: I have a huge passion and love for all animals! I have my own small dog, who’s my whole world. He’s 5 years old and does everything with me. I have volunteered at vet offices and love helping and being around animals whenever I can. I love helping others and being able to provide and assist people to make their lives easier. I’m currently working in home care and have a very flexible schedule. I also enjoy jogging with dogs too. I will love your animals just as much as my own! I make my own schedule each day for work so I can be available for you and your pet! I would love to help make anything easier for you. I love all animals as my own! I feed them when they need to be, keep their environment clean, and exercises them as needed 😊

“Evan was GREAT ! He contacted me very quickly regarding a medical concern one of my Great Danes was having. He was very quick to reply to all my messages and sent smiling pictures of the dogs to put me at ease. I was especially surprised to see the floors and bedding washed and clean upon my arrival. My Danes fell in love with him during the meet and greet visit and will definitely use him for all our dog care needs. Cora”

“Kristy is an excellent pet sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure our pets are well cared for when we are away. I never have to worry Kristy is with our dogs. She is quick to respond and sends updates throughout her stay. Our dogs are thrilled to see her and enjoy her company. It’s comforting knowing I have someone who truly cares for my pets when I am gone.”

“Lonna is kind, caring and did a great job with our two pups. Would recommend & have her watch our pups again.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, where I learned the responsibility and care that goes into each individual pup! I recently worked for Boston Dog Butlers in Boston, and have moved home for the summer! I’ve been trained on all sizes, different breeds and different needs of dogs all while putting their safety first! I recently moved back to Michigan for the summer and picked Rover back up before I move to Europe in a few months! I have all weekday and weekend availability! I have dog sat many of times with a mix of routines— I feel comfortable having the dogs out and about, but can also crate them if necessary! I make sure all food and cherished items are out of reach, and I make sure to actually be with the dogs so they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t!

About: My family always had dogs and cats while I was growing up. I sorted the pictures of the dogs I have known the longest to the shortest, with a photo of me at The Hemingway House in Key West FLA petting a cat. First is my childhood dog named Fezz who passed away in 2020. Second is my brothers beagle, Jack. Next is an old friend’s tan Pitbull named Louise. Then there is my dad’s white puppy named Piggie. The next photos are my friend Andy’s dogs. Two Bully Breeds. The white one is Biggie and the grey one is Gianna. I have watched them a few times and I walk them together. Biggie is a rescue and is considered a high risk dog. He has bit 10+ people, but he loves me so much and is very comfortable around me. I wouldn’t say I’m a dog whisperer, but I certainly have a way with dogs. I have watched my brother’s beagle as well a few times. When I lived in CO (about a decade ago) I watched a German Shepherd and an Alaskan Malamute. They were a handful and hard to walk together as they were both pretty big and strong, but I was still able to do it. I work remote doing life and health insurance, so I’m just looking for a side job to supplement my income until I build my book of business up. I could watch them at my house as I have a huge fenced in yard, but I would rather meet the animal at home where it’s most comfortable for them. When I watch Andy’s dogs, I watch them at his house.

About: Having pets for all these years I understand how important these family members are. It always seemed that their comfort and happiness was as important aa anybody else’s in the family. Pets have always been a big part of our family Having retired from industry makes me able and willing to spend time showing attention in a safe and willing schedule. I understand the value a pet brings to a family Knowing what is safe for dogs and cats is something I have studied. I also believe it is very important to keep a pet leashed where danger is evident

About: Watching an animal isn't any different than watching a child I love all animals but dogs are at the top of the list very energetic cat play fetch teach obedience playful and energetic I live in an apartment I have no yard I am available all day usually I prefer dogs up to a hundred pounds roughly I do not have a car if you are willing to pick me up I will give you a reduced price any cancellations must have a 24-hour notice I do not stay overnight at people's houses I do not know the more I get to know you the more like you that is to change my email is jokerz smile at hot mail hope to hear from you soon you can just send me a message and we can work out a time schedule that will work best for the both of us, thanks when i take care ofothers pets, i watch them like a hawk, making sure htey stay out of trouble and ensuring that they are well taken care of

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive knowledge of animal behavior, my commitment to personalized care, and my ability to handle various pet needs, including administering medications and managing special diets. Additionally, I prioritize communication with pet owners to ensure peace of mind while they are away. Pet care fits into my daily routine by incorporating regular feeding, exercise, and playtime for pets. Weekly, I ensure maintaining open communication with pet owners about their pets' well-being. I have multiple references that can assure you your dog will be in the best hands when you chose to take a vacation or whatever it might be.
