“Brooke was fantastic with my cats, Coke and Pepsi! Reliable pet sitters are hard to come by in Alpena, but Brooke exceeded all my expectations. She stopped by every day, completed everything we discussed, and sent me daily photo updates. I could tell my cats were happy and well cared for while I was away for the week. I highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.”
About: Since my dog Tito crossed over the rainbow last month, I am looking to help people with their precious babies. I have taken care of dogs and cats for 25 years. I have experience in caring for senior, deaf and blind dogs. As I work from home, I am able to offer a lot of attention to your darlings. I work from home so I can give a lot of attention and play with your pup. I like to walk dogs around 5 times a day. I live in the top unit of a house and have a backyard. Dogs are welcomed on the furniture and bed if dog owner allows. I do have two very dog- friendly cats.
About: I have a natural way with animals. They respond well to me. I understand the importance of building trust when dealing with animals. I have dealt with multiple animals while working at a shelter. I have experience with administering medication; eye, ear and pills. I have had pets my whole life. I'll treat your animal like my own. Along with taking care of my animals full time I am available to help with other dogs on a daily basis, including on the weekends. I have a decent back yard that is fenced in we have a 1,100 sq ft basement for fun and sleepy time. Home away from home.
“I am so grateful to have found Jane on Rover! Just a few days before our trip, our cat sitter had to cancel and she stepped in to watch him last minute. Then, our kitty was in a cat fight requiring him to take oral antibiotics at a certain time, multiple times a day. Jane visited our sweet boy twice a day, making sure he took his meds each time (no easy feat!) She was also kind enough to bring in our mail and gave us wonderful updates/photos each visit. A wonderful sitter, we will be requesting Jane on our next trip!”
About: Hi, Good day! This is Jingle and I live in Alpena. I am a full time housewife and furmom. So my schedule is very flexible. I have 2 dogs a choco lab retriever almost 2 yrs old and a Australian Shepherd mix 6 yrs old. Currently, I regularly dog walk/sit one other dog atleast 4 times a week in town for almost 2 yrs now and another dog (her best friend) in several times in the last few months. Things I do with furfriends: - Take to the dog park / trails to run and play. - Take to the beach to play and swim - Train basic obedience for free, if necessary. - Take pictures and videos and send to the pet owners every single time. - Take your dogs to vet appointment And I would like to extend my service to those pet parents who need a helping hand to look after and have their furbabies give the best time of their lives. P.S. I don’t bring with me my own dogs when I dog sit/walk other dogs to make sure they are given more attention. I have a very flexible schedule and able to accept same day short notice. Whatever works best for both of us and to your dog/s. I have a fenced yard and when taking care of your pets at your home I am have to make sure they have food and fresh water, potty breaks and given more attention like giving excercise and training, and to be in crates if needed.
About: Hi, I’m Caelyn! I recently relocated to Northeast Michigan from the Traverse City and I am looking to meet new clients and supplement my income doing what I love: spending time with pets! I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for several years and look forward to meeting new pets and owners in the Alpena area. I live with 3 dogs, a cat, a toddler and a husband on Hubbard Lake. I am happy to travel around northeast Michigan. I am available for regular dog-walking, drop in visits, and overnight stays. I am pet First Aid Certified through the American Red Cross. Let’s connect! My “regular” job is largely seasonal, so I have pretty open availability from September-May! I am happy to adjust my schedule as needed to accommodate bookings. The safety and wellbeing of your pet and your home are my biggest priorities. I respect the rules my clients have for their pets and their home.
