“Katherine was a fabulous dog and house sitter! She arrived on time, she made sure to understand my puppy's routine and needs, and she sent pictures and updates throughout her stay. My house was clean and my puppy loved her! I was able to completely relax and enjoy my vacation because I knew Katherine was taking care of Gigi. I will definitely hire again!”

About: With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats—and 5 years of house and pet sitting through personal networks—I’ve found true joy in this work. Whether I’m walking your dog, stopping by for a drop-in visit, or staying in your home, I provide thoughtful, dependable care that keeps your pets feeling secure and loved. I’m highly reliable and only take on bookings I know I can fully commit to—your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I’m nurturing and respectful, and I love being active and playful with animals when it suits their personality. I treat every pet like a cherished family member and strive to make their routines feel calm, familiar, and happy while you’re away. I’m currently looking unemployed so pet care will be a significant part of my weekly routine. I’m excited about the opportunity to make watching your pet my top priority. I only offer pet care services in the client’s home, because I believe pets feel most secure and comfortable in their own familiar environment. I care for each pet with the same attention and respect I would give my own—whether it’s following a specific routine, administering medication, going for energizing walks, or providing gentle companionship. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs and personality so I can offer care that’s consistent, calm, and tailored. I also only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to, so you can count on me to be reliable, present, and fully focused on your pet’s well-being.

About: I've had my dog business for 5+ years and I devote my time to special dogs during the day or on weekends. I cared for my two dogs until they passed away. Now I have time to devote to other dogs who need my support. I have time in my life to care for your lovely dogs, walking them during the week and watching them for overnights on the weekends As my yard is not fenced in, I prefer to go to clients home to help out. I have a reliable vehicle and could come and visit

About: I have been fostering for almost 10 years and have taken care of cats, dogs and horses growing up my whole life. I am familiar with giving meds and special needs for dogs and cats as well. I am working part time to spend more time with my kids and dogs and my kids also love new companions we take in and care for. I have just been wanting to care for more animals in my area. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dobermans and a doberdoodle. They are all dog and kid friendly. My dogs are vetted and up to date on everything. My dobermans are the reason I started fostering as they love new friends! My doberdoodle was my foster fail that I love dearly. I do have a couple kennels but if your dog does better with no kennel I do that as well!

“Ashley was a perfect fit for us. She was able to come meet our stranger adverse dog before the stay. She was able to stay with our dog while we were away and kept us informed, with pictures. She was respectful of our space, our dog, and us. We look forward to using her again.”

“1st time using Rover and glad we did. Jamie was reliable and a great communicator. She was able to quickly bond with our dog and provide the necessary exercise needed. Since we were traveling and in Charlevoix MI for our son's wedding, Jamie was able to quickly put us at ease by providing great care for our dog.”

About: I've taken care of many dogs and cats over the years of all shapes and sizes. Up to 5 animals at one time in the past. I lost my last pet and want to help others while I grieve. I recently returned to Northern Michigan after the passing of my father to help my mother. Had to leave corporate job and looking for a happier pace of life and to give back to animals, who saved my life during a difficult time. I love walks and live right by the bike trails and near several parks. I also love cuddling on the couch and allow animals on the furniture if they're allowed to in their home. I would treat them like my own and follow any and all rules/restrictions to the letter. I always want to meet the pet and the family beforehand so everyone feels comfortable. I'm an open book and just like helping people. Ask any and all questions needed please!

About: Trustworthy adult available to care for your pets in their home environment. I became a pet/house sitter when I started caring for my Mother In-law's cats when she traveled. I feed, water, scoop litter, water plants, etc. I have gained a reputation for being a reliable person to care for pets while traveling for my friends, co-workers, and neighbors. I am a very clean and organized person. I like to take notes and want to know best how you would like to have your home and furry family members cared for. I enjoy energetic dogs. Many years ago I had a very energetic Flat-Coated Retriever who was a busy boy. I can't have pets where I live, but enjoy spending time with pets very much. Please let me know if you think I'm a good fit. I work full-time. My hours fluctuate Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I work from 7:30am- 4:00pm, and on Tuesday, Thursday I work 8:15am-4:45pm. I'm available before and after work, and on the weekends. I am unable to offer pet care in my own home. I am happy to care for pets in your home. I also feel that a pet that stays in their own home may be less stressed when their owner is gone.

About: I’ve taken care of many pups over the years and now I’m looking to expand that with Rover!

About: I am and always have been an avid pet lover, so I will treat your baby with the love he/she deserves. I’m skilled in bathing dogs if that’s ever needed. I’m also very good with puppies, and relatively good with senior pets and giving them the love they need. I work part-time at Wendy’s on Division at varying times, so we will have to discuss when I can walk if you live in Traverse City. I will always be able to sit though. I’m respectful of the surroundings of the animal, and I will make sure they are comfortable around me, as well as the human that loves them.

“Jennifer is everything I wanted in a sitter - she is super conscientious of both my needs and the needs of my two dogs - I highly recommend her!”
