“James was very comfortable with our dog and our dog was comfortable with him. He gave him lots of attention and exercise. James is also very nice, flexible and accommodating especially since we had a last minute request. I very much appreciated his help!”


“Ann-Marie was awesome with my dog Charlie. She was very kind, personable and trustworthy. She stayed at my place while I was gone and held the fort down. Charlie loved the walks and attention she gave him. She sent me multiple pictures to let me know he was doing good. I highly recommend her service.”


“Eric watched our dog Sterling for six days/nights and Sterling seemed to enjoy time spent together with Eric. Sterling was at ease around Eric from the get-go. Sterling had meds he was finishing up and Eric took over dosing Sterling for us. Eric kept us abreast of their time together with texts and photos, which we appreciated so much. If were to need a dog sitter again we would call Eric.”


“Chloe did a a fabulous job watching our little girl. She spent lots of time playing with her and gave her ample supervised outdoor time. She even left Cat TV on for our girl while she was away. Chloe sent us multiple updates with pictures and was always very responsive. We are also very appreciative with how much time Chloe was able to spend with our kitty while we were away, ensuring that she did not get lonely. We highly recommend Chloe and will be booking her in the future! :)”


“Sally did a wonderful job watching our dog and our house while we were away for the holidays this year. She was very accommodating, considerate and kind, and we would absolutely have her care for our pup again! She sent us pictures or videos every day and helped put our mind at ease. Highly recommend!!”


“Andrew was excellent! It was our first time using a dog sitter in our home and I could not have been more at ease. We were away for an entire week and Andrew spent so much time with them doing all of the things they love. He took them to the beach every day and kept us informed with pictures and texts letting us know how much fun they were having. I highly recommend him!”



“Rebecca provided a top-notch level of service, housesitting for senior black lab. She provided text updates and fun pix so we could follow how everything was going and see how much Smokey Bear loved being with her. Rebecca managed her time in our home and property very responsibly. We will definitely call her first for our next trip!”


About: I've had all kinds of pets in my life, from bunnies and fish to kitties and dogs! I have experience giving medications, in pill form and injectables (previously had a pet with diabetes), and I'm comfortable with some grooming, like baths and brushouts. I love getting to know everyone's pets and being able to love them like my own -- they become part of my family, too! I have a full time job but find that my hours are perfect for sitting! I have most weekends off as well, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! Boarding in my home is a little different. Due to my own animals safety, I do require AT LEAST ONE meet and greet with my dogs to ensure they get along. Your pet will also absolutely need to be okay with cats, and they will need to be crate trained in order to be left at my home. All my dogs are crate trained and are crated when we are not home. There is also a list of vaccines I require your pet(s) to have--I will share these if you're looking to book sitting in my home! Sitting in YOUR home is MUCH different and actually preferable for senior dogs or anxious dogs! I don't like to stress dogs out with an environment change, it can be too much for some dogs and I'd hate to put your pet through that! I will follow all house rules and routines for your pet, and I always clean up after myself and your pet, which includes dishes, changing bedding, laundry (occasionally), vacuuming, etc.!

About: I have worked with a lot of high energy dogs so I understand and am willing to do the work that is needed for them. I have also worked with dogs that have had traumatic pasts and have spent time working with them to trust their environment and other people. I am a teacher so I have summers off and weekends free. I am also free after school for those last minute date nights and outings. I have two high energy black labs so I am used to dogs that need long walks and lots of stimulation. I am very comfortable around big dogs as mine are both 80 lbs. I prioritize trust and comfort for the dogs I care for. I work to build a strong bond with dogs I work with in order for both of us to have a good time.

“Jaekob was great and Cooper and Kiara had a great time. He stayed with them overnight and was a respectful house guest!! We would book with him again without hesitation.”


About: Pets are like family and I will make sure that your pet is taken care of properly. I am a dependable worker and I am looking for some part time jobs while I work remotely as a research scientist at MSU! I have been a foster mom to kittens and dogs, pet sitter for family friends and am now a cat mom myself. I am comfortable with big or small dogs and I am very good with cats of all ages/ personalities. I am now working remotely for MSU so my schedule is very flexible in terms of watching pets during the work week or on weekends! It is easy for me to pet sit during the day as long as I have WiFi! I am available to take pets on walks of any length, take them to the vet if something should happen while the owner is away and will treat your pet like my own. I have also been in charge of pets with extensive medication schedules so that is something I am available to offer if you have a sick pet!

“Emma was an absolute lifesaver! Our typical sitter had bailed last minute and she was able to accommodate our last minute request. She sent frequent photos and was very responsive throughout the weekend. We'll definitely continue to utilize her going forward!”


“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.”


“Kathryn is amazing! She is kind, attentive and responsible. I trust her implicitly with my little fur-bean. I’m so happy to have connected with her. She takes the worry and stress out of traveling — I don’t have to worry about my pup or my house when Kathryn is there to take care of everything.”

About: Hi, I'm Meghan! a lifelong animal lover that you can count on. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I've grown up with a variety of animals including: dogs (both big and small), cats (both outgoing and timid), as well as even the smallest of pets (like hamsters, bunnies, snakes, fish, and lizards) and I truly believe our pets are family. While most of my experience comes from caring for my own animals, I'm attentive, patient, and committed to following any and all instructions to keep your pet safe and happy while you're away. This includes any specific routines, medications, or favorite toys. I'll make sure everything runs smoothly just the way they like it. Whether you need someone to drop in, go for a walk, or provide overnight care, I'd love to help. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone new and I promise to treat them like my own. I'm comfortable with all types of personalities and would welcome a meet-and-greet to learn more about your needs! I work part-time over the summer but I still have availability for early mornings, afternoons, evenings drop-ins/walks and overnights on most days depending on location. Your pets comfort and safety come first - especially in their own home. I take great care to follow any and all instructions closely so your pet can stick to their normal routine like feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications or playtime.

About: With two years of hands-on experience working in a dog daycare boarding facility, followed by a year at a groomers your pets are in very safe hands! With a flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my services to meet the specific needs of each pet, I pride myself on creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for your beloved pets. Whether it's cuddle time on the couch, interactive play sessions, or simply ensuring that your pet feels loved and cared for while you're gone, rest assured that I treat each pet as if they were my own. Your furry friends are in good hands with me!

“Perfect from our standpoint as well as Jollys.”


About: Animals love me for my calm, loving demeanor. I am a good pack leader and provide a safe and fun place for your fur baby while your away. I am retired with plenty of time on my hands. It gets lonely at times so I enjoy the company of both dogs and cats. I have a large yard with room to roam, sniff and play. You can trust that I will take just as good of care of your fur babies as I do my own.

About: I’ve taken care of mine own dogs and others my whole life. I am an active girl, that loves to bring dogs on walks or runs. I am a middle school special education teacher so I have summers off. I would be able to care for a pet throughout the summer with an extremely flexible schedule. I would be willing to come and stay at your home with your pet and keep their routine as if you never left! I am a caring girl willing to keep your pet happy and healthy!

About: I grew up with dogs and now have a 5 year old Goldendoodle, my lil Shorkie passed at 18 years old. Pets are family to me and I can assure you that they will be in good hands, safe, & loved on. I only work part-time so I have lots of time available to love on your pups, let them out, and take them on walks. I also love taking pictures, so you’ll get plenty during your booking. I will always keep you updated as much as you’d like on all the details you need. When I am not working I am usually home cleaning and doing laundry or out enjoying the nice weather with my family so my schedule is pretty open for a planned vacation or a last minute let out. I will always let your pup out how you prefer and if I’m boarding they will not be left alone for more than a few hours. I will treat your pups like my own. Safety and love are my number one priorities.
