About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. My family treats dogs like they are human children, and your dog would be treated like a prince or princess. I ask that you ensure your dogs are all up to date on vaccinations and neutered/spade. Dogs that are trained off leash will do better at my home since our yard is not fenced in. I am home Friday - Sunday. If I have to leave for any reason, then my husband or adult son or adult daughter are always home. I do not have small children in my home. I have 14 acres of relatively secluded farmland. We throw a ball for our dogs and also walk them along the White Pine Trial each night. If it’s rainy or cold, we go into our indoor arena and let the dogs play and run around. I only accept dogs that are good off-leash because we do not have a fenced in yard.


“This is our second time using Brittani and she was wonderful. She was punctual, checked in regularly, and went above and beyond what was expected. We will definitely being using her again in the future.”


About: I have owned and taken care of animals my entire life, I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats including walking, bathing, feeding, and so much more! I also have experience in basic training for younger animals and I am also able to care for senior animals such as giving medication or treating them with the extra care they deserve! I'm currently a full time student at Northern Michigan University, so I will have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I prioritize your pets safety and will never leave them out of my sight or unattended. I will take upmost care and consideration when it comes to keeping your pets healthy, safe, and happy.

About: I will make sure your fur-baby has the best time and make sure you get pictures through the time they are with me! I will be home at all time so they will never be lonely. I have a puppy that loves to play with other dogs AND adores cats! (Sometimes I feel as if she thinks she is a cat too😂) I have toys and treats. I usually allow the animals on our furniture because this is their home as well, But if you don’t want your baby on furniture I fully respect and can accommodate that for you! I lost my home not long ago and got out of a bad relationship. I’m currently living in a van and traveling! I have all the time in the world and being able to see your pets and spend time with them woukd be the best! 💜 They will be looked after and played with! I am a huge animal lover and always have been. I love spending time with animals and learning about them! :)

“Vicki did an amazing job with our dog. He was so happy the minute he saw her. Followed all our directions and we loved the pictures. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will request her again in the future.”


“Heather was excellent and took care of our dog and cats while we were out of state for 10 days. She set up a meet and greet with us before hand and then stopped over to meet the pets and learn how to take care of them. She was great at communicating and sent us updates and photos each visit. We will absolutely contact Heather again when we need a pet sitter. Thank you Heather!”


“Nicole was an amazing dog sitter! She was communicative, reliable, prompt and consistent. I'm so glad I found someone I can trust when we go on trips & out furry family members can stay home and get the love they need! Thank you, Nicole!”


About: Hi! I’m Ashley, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. My stepdad was the head of animal control, which taught me a lot about animal behavior, safety, and compassion at a young age. I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently share my heart (and couch!) with two of my own—Sassy, my sweet 17-year-old dachshund who I’ve had since 2011, and Oakley, a playful 6-year-old lab I adopted from the local animal shelter. I understand the unique needs of both senior dogs and high-energy pups, and I treat every animal in my care like family. Whether your pet needs gentle senior support, active playtime, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to help with dependable, loving care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home most of the week, which allows me to give my dogs plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I’m only five minutes from home, so I’m able to come back easily to let my dogs out and check in on them. Their well-being is always a top priority, and I structure my day to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for—I’d do the same for yours! I care for pets in whatever way is most comfortable for them. I follow your instructions closely to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. If your pet loves their kennel, that’s perfectly fine—but if they prefer to cuddle up in bed, I’m more than happy to share the extra snuggles! Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding routines, or just relaxing on the couch, I do my best to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home.

About: My family members are all animal lovers! 🐕 🐈 🐓 🐇 🐐 🐴 We have a small hobby farm. On the property we have horses, goats, 2 cats, chickens, quail, rabbits, and a goose! We have one indoor dog and 8 outdoor sled dogs. With more than 20 years experience with dogs we have raised many puppies through potty training, and senior dogs with special needs. One of our first dogs just passed this year at 18 year old! Our oldest daughter, Isabel, has a grooming station set up, and has done well for herself in the community grooming many breeds of dogs. She raises huskies, and runs them on our trails in the fall and winter. **We can do some grooming during their stay. (Limited availability) Ask for information. Flexible availability, and pick up/drop off time. Preferably Mon-Saturday 7:30-8 and Sunday 2-7. Let me know if it’s close to those times, we can make it work. No pick up/drop off on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, or Easter Day. Please arrange drop off or pick up before or after these days. We are willing to love your puppy/dog while you’re away short or long periods of time. We care for your animals in our home/and our temp. controlled attached garage. We keep cats and other animals separated from the dogs. We have a fenced-in back yard for dogs to play. We practice safety by having low dogs to handler ratios. We have Retriever kennels set up (we can make these bigger for larger dogs or more than 1 dog* price adjusts if you want to change size). We also have crate options available if your dog prefers. **note on prices : If your dog is not used to a crate or needs more special attention then I can arrange that. Price will be based on their needs. VIP will be $10 additional to start. If your dog is over 1 year, but is still high energy they will still be in the puppy rate. We have 50 wooded acres with trails for evening walks. 45 min *Walks are included in puppy and VIP rate. Regular rate will be additional $10/walk. An attached fenced-in dog play yard is available several times a day. Play yard includes: doggie pools (summer months), play fetch with chuck-it balls, big Tether TUG, Giant Doggie Sandbox, frisbee, and more. Indoor toys include: lick mats, puzzles, kongs, tug ropes, and more. (Lick mats, stuffed Kongs, and bully sticks are an add on. Please ask for price list) *For the safety of the other dogs, and us, we can't accommodate "people" aggressive dogs. If your dog is nervous with other dogs we can keep them separated. We have low ratio dog to handler and can also be one-on-one to make the dogs comfortable.

About: HI, my name is Lenore, - My love for animals began when I was very young... - A few years ago, my Sheltie, Spencer... at 10 wk old, was already highly intelligent, and so full of love.

He was such a quick learner, sitting and staying in no time! - Years later, my youngest Son and I, owned registered AKC, Siberian Huskies, and raised and sold 4 litters of puppies. Such fun. - a few other animals I've cared for; dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, bearded dragons, fish, eels, a chinchilla, pet snakes....but said no to a tarantula! Just can't do that one!! - thank you ahead of time for your consideration, you will NOT regret putting your trust in me. - Calm, and easy going are my characteristics, as i have plenty of time, and a big heart, to devote to caring for your companion, friend and family member!! Also being a loving & giving person, my priority would be, to fully enjoy caring for your dog, or pet... fulfilling a desire in me to again have a dog in the house, to care for, to spend time with, talk to, & treat 'royally' (spoil) :)) enjoying every second of the blessing. I will take only one dog at a time unless you have two, who know each other, and get along. That way, I can & will devote lots of extra TLC for your best friend...and will definitely treat them as if they were my own, with utmost of value and importance, how they deserve!

About: Hi! Thanks for looking at my profile - I hope to meet your fur baby! I have taken care of a variety of animals in the past and will always jump at the opportunity. I’m comfortable with all animals… except spiders. I’m trusted by many of my friends and family to bathe, feed, walk, play with, and care for their pet. You can be sure that your animals will be treated with as much love and care as you would give them yourself! I am happy to be on my Rover journey and can't wait to meet some new furry faces! I am able to walk your pet or check on them between 9am-3pm Sunday-Thursday. Some days I may be free all day! Let’s chat :) While I am looking after your pet, they will be my number one priority! Being a new face, I will give them their space until they warm up to me, if needed. I know all dogs are different and need different levels of care. I am here to make sure your pet is comfortable and in great hands!

About: I have 2 dogs of my own, as well as have been shadowing a dog trainer so I am able to do some leash training, and basic skill training as well. I am working part time so I have enough time to take your pups for a walk or a fun adventure! Or if you’re looking for a weekend getaway your pup can come have their own at my house! I have a large acre of land to run on, no fence yet but long leads with 2 friendly dogs who are willing to play. Separation will be had for the dogs for everyone’s safety indoors, play time available. Able to stop over/stay over as well.

About: I’ve taken care of many shapes, sizes and breeds of dogs since I was little. I personally have had a wide variety of dogs growing up. i’ve had German Shepard, Cocker spaniel, black lab, Pomeranian, pit bull and now a miniature golden doodle! I do work full time, but from home! walking a dog would be my “lunch break”, it would be my escape from work and my house. I live on 12 acres, 2 acres out of the 12 are mowed. So my dog loves to get her zoomies out around the whole house!

Reyna Z.Star Sitter
“I was excited to learn of the new business. Reyna and her family love animals and treat them like family. I have a very anxious Maltese mix that shakes when we go to the groomers or vet. I dropped her off first for grooming and then she was spending the day there. They did a great job! Her cut was just what I asked for and she made fast friends with the groomer. She was happy to see me but was at home in the family atmosphere. They treat them like their own dogs. It also works when you have a full schedule. They offer dog sitting until you get out of work or even overnight boarding for vacations. Thank you Reyna for peace of mind for myself and my fur baby 😊 Beth L”
