“Jaime followed all instructions and kept the house spotless. Returned home to a safe and happy pet. Will definitely use Jaime in the future and would recommend to others.”


“This was my first experience with Rover. I have extreme anxiety about leaving my dog with ANYONE, much less a ‘stranger.’ Kat eased my worries from the very first conversation & offered to meet Luna and me at our convenience before her stay. I immediately felt better after we met and knew my girl would be in good and safe hands! Kat followed our instructions perfectly and clarified with questions when needed. She sent tons of photos and videos while we were on our trip, and she even took our girl on a fun walk at a nature trail! Our home was perfectly kept and respected. I was so relieved to have had such a great experience because I know not everyone has been so lucky. It can be hard to trust your baby with others, but I will continue to trust Kat with my dog when I need a sitter, and you should, too!”


“Jess was amazing with my pups! Very timely about visits and understanding of their needs. One of my dogs can be a bit of a grouch and Jess gave him the time and space he needed to warm up to her and he quickly came around to wanting her attention. Lots of updates and pictures, very comforting all around. Will definitely be using her services again!”


About: I've cared for family and friends' dogs for decades. Small, big, shy, slobbery, cuddly, and bursting with energy are my favorites! My three rescue dogs are an incredible blessing. I couldn't love them more. I respect and appreciate your love for your incredible blessings and will take care of them as if they are mine. Let the fun, loving cuddles, and kisses begin! I am semi-retired and currently have loads of time. I do extensive volunteer work with, and for, Veterans but can coordinate my schedule as needed. I have a fenced yard for my three to enjoy outdoor romps. Inside they have beds, forts, caves, and numerous pieces of furniture to enhance their napping experience. They get nutritious treats and loads of attention. I'd love to care for your babies as I do my own.

About: I am an avid dog and cat lover that wants to live vicariously through your pet. I'm a full-time social worker whose career is caring for people in community. However, my passion doesn't stop there. I also love animals! I was born and raised with cats and dogs throughout my whole life. When caring for your dog or cat I treat them with love and care as if they were my own. I love giving lots of ear scratches and belly rubs along with taking them outdoors on walks. I feel better being in the outdoors hiking and if your loved one does too, I'd love to share my passion with them. I love animals of all ages and sizes. Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or concern you may have about myself or your loved one. I am working in person but can accommodate a certain schedule with advance notice to fit any fur baby into my flexible schedule. I have a reliable car that is dog friendly. I’m able to come to you, or pick up your loving pet. I have one fur baby to keep your pet company. I’m employed with the state and have passed all background checks. I will protect your fur baby as if one of my own.

About: Hello! My name is Arica. I have been taking care of pets for many years. I love animals, especially dogs. I don’t have any kids and most of my time is spent at home. I do have a job but it is all remote and I can control the days and hours I work. I will treat your fur babies like my own and will make sure your house is looking as good as you left it. If you agree to let me take care of your babies I will do the best in my power to make sure they are safe and comfortable. Message me if you have any questions. Thank you 😊 I work for a company that is remote. I have full control of the scheduling and when I work. So there would be no problem fitting it in to my routine! I make sure to treat them like family. I take care of the home as well. I would follow all of owners guidelines for walks, crating, and administering medication. Always making sure your pup is safe, having a tight hold onto leashes when walking!

“Emily was great to have as a house guest and pet sitter. We came home to an impeccably clean house and a happy dog! We are grateful for her service and help, will definitely book her again. Thanks Emily!”


“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.”


“Always responsive and takes care of our pets like her own. We keep coming back to Gabrielle for all of our house sitting needs. We don’t travel often but when we do she is our go to!”


“I am so appreciative Jessica did a great job with our animals but especially my senior dog. He is a bit extra and she didn’t mind at all and helped keep his routine normal for me while I was gone. I recommend her and would definitely hire her again!”


“We usually use a kennel for our dogs while we are out of town. After having Cera look after our babies we are NEVER using a kennel again! Cera is incredible! She is professional and responsible. She came to our house before our trip to meet the animals. She asked thorough questions and was very prepared. During our trip she took LOTS of pictures of the dogs and kitties playing and loving her company in our absence. I get a lot of anxiety leaving our pets, but with Cera I was completely comforted knowing they were well taken care of. She kept the house maintained for me while we were gone, which was amazing! She was very quick to respond with text messages and seems to genuinely love my animals. She is a treasure and we will be using her from now on when we have to leave the furbabies! Thank you Cera! The animals cannot wait to see you again!!”


About: I have had pets growing up including Cats and Dogs. I currently have two cats and am the go to cat and dog sitter in the friend group! I work a full time 9-5 job, and am available most evenings and weekends! Mostly looking for drop ins once or twice a day depending on needs. My cats are spoiled and well taken care of. I am good with cats and dogs, and look forward to meeting and spending time with your fur babies!

“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’ve taken care of my family/friends dogs for years and love going for walks. I have taken care of German Shepards to small dogs like yorkies. I currently work as an RN in Kalamazoo MI and on my days off I love spending time outdoors walking dogs of any size or breed. I am a very trust worthy and responsible person. I am familiar with the Gull Lake area and would love to be able to walk more dogs!

About: I’m Kristen, a Behavioral Science major and a passionate dog mom for over 5 years. I currently care for my three lovable pitties — all with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Through them, I’ve gained real-life experience with leash training, enrichment, socialization, and managing multi-dog dynamics. I’m especially familiar with caring for velcro dogs (like mine!) who love close companionship and need that extra level of emotional support and attention. My Bachelor's in Behavioral Science helps give me a deep understanding of animal behavior. I use positive reinforcement techniques to build trust and encourage good habits. I'm great at reading cues, responding to their needs, and helping them feel comfortable and safe — I always aim to make dogs feel safe, seen, and loved. Whether you have a shy pup, an energetic walker, or a dog who just needs some love and company, I'd be honored to help care for them like they're my own! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize dog walking throughout the day. I spend a lot of time with my own dogs and love incorporating dog walking into my daily routine — it gives me time outdoors, keeps me active, and most importantly, lets me spend time with even more amazing pups! A lot of my work is pet-focused, caring for dogs is already a huge part of my life — both online and off. Whether it's a morning stroll, midday energy burn, or afternoon walk-and-sniff, I’m able to reliably fit your dog’s needs into my day with full attention and love. As a dog walker and sitter, I treat every pup and every home with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I know how important it is for your dog to feel safe and understood — and for you to feel confident they’re in good hands. Before each walk, I take time to greet your dog calmly, check their mood, and ensure they’re comfortable and ready to go. During walks, I stay alert, follow your dog’s pace, and make sure their walk is safe, enjoyable, and suited to their needs — whether that means getting some energy out or taking a slow, sniff-filled stroll. If I’m entering your home, I’m always mindful of your space and your dog’s routine. I follow any instructions you leave (feeding, water refills, post-walk routines, etc.) and always double-check things like locked doors and leashes for peace of mind. My goal is to make your dog feel happy, secure, and loved — and to make you feel fully at ease while they’re in my care.

Kristen B.
“To whom it may concern, I would highly recommend Kristen Brakke to be chosen as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Kristen grew up with dogs her whole life. Kristen has always been very responsible and loyal to her pet family and she has always shared a very special and loving bond with them. Kristen has always shown that same kind of special love, affection, and care for her own pets. You see, they are not just pets to Kristen, they are all family members. Kristen loves each and every pet as if they are her own family members and she treats them that same loving way as well. Thank you for your time, Rebecca stubli”
