“I could not recommend daizee enough! I’ve never left my dogs home for any reason and have missed out on a lot because of it. She came highly recommended from a good friend so I figured I’d give it a shot. To say I was nervousness was an understatement but her first day she sent me a Rover card at every visit! Coming home after 5 days, I have no apprehension about having her look after my pups again and I certainly will, if they haven’t scared her off! ?Thank you daizee!”


“Ashley dropped in on our kitties while we were out of town and they were well looked-after. Our one cranky old man cat can be a real jerk, not using the box, and she kindly cleaned up after him and gave him love anyway. She was a great communicator and even brought some packages inside for us when she visited.”


“Miles went above and beyond with my cats. When one of my cats had a medical issue, he contacted me asap. He gives detailed reports and would highly recommend him to anyone.”


“Leaving my fur family behind while traveling causes great anxiety for me... hoping that they're properly being cared for while away. Ashley was super friendly, extremely communicative and sent the best pictures every day. As long as she's around, I will continue to hire her every time I need to leave town. Thank you Ashley!!”


“Marcia did excellent even with the unexpected adapting our dogs to her yard.”


“McKayla was awesome with our dog. Checked in when she got there and let us know when she's left and took plenty of pictures. Our dog loves her and we will be using her again.”


“Camryn responded immediately and came out to meet my doggies beforehand. The dogs like her! She came out with her little one, but the dogs weren't quite sure about the baby carrier with the fan on it :). They were really curious though. Camryn took good care of my fur-babies, fed them and made sure they went potty before she left. I will contact her again.”


About: As a pet owner (cats, dogs and hamsters), I am offering the same care I looked for when I had pet sitting needs—dependability and love for pets. I work full time remotely so I’m flexible during the week. I do travel with my job and many of my weekends are full. I will keep my schedule updated so times are known when I can help. I am willing to watch your dog or cat at your house. I currently have a friendly cat but he doesn’t understand not all dogs love him. If I watch your dog at my house, the dog would need to meet my cat first to make sure they are ok. I do have a fenced in yard.

“Casey and her kids are reliable and love all fur babies! What else could a pet mama want?”


About: Throughout my life I have cared for two cats and a Bichon-Frise/Poodle Mix. I was involved in caring for my dog from the day he came to us: showing him how to use stairs within those first couple of days and teaching commands for the next couple of years. Inevitably he aged, and over time I developed a familiarity with handling the many facets of caring for an aging dog: arthritis, anxiety, mobility challenges, and mood shifts. I learned the tricks for keeping him calm in the car, and those for getting him to take his medications. In all those years I consistently played with him in our fields, took him for walks, and ignored his grouching when I bumped him in his sleep. I love all animals very much, but as an innately energetic person, and as someone who is convinced (like most) that I had the best dog in the world, I find I bond most quickly and most deeply with dogs. I would be thrilled to meet yours. I am a recent college graduate looking for work while I job search. During the day I apply to jobs on my computer. Then, at night, I apply to jobs on my computer. My schedule is almost entirely open. In general I do my best to follow the pet's pace/lead, prioritizing the animal's comfort whenever possible. I follow provided schedules in a regimented manner, and if a schedule is not provided, then I will develop one myself. I take things like medication management and potty breaks very seriously, aware that when an owner is gone, pets are often stressed, and this stress can exacerbate pain and/or behavioral struggles. Regardless of the weather I am always happy to move and be active, so regular walks/exercise with pets is no trouble. As a pet lover, quality time is never an inconvenience either. I am more than thrilled, if your pet is more of a lounger than a runner, to just sit with them and relax.

About: I have experience in working in a vet clinic and on a local farm of large animals. I have been trained to minister care for all cats/dogs of all breeds/sizes. If your pet has any health issues such as diabetes or has hit senior years, no worries! New puppy paws running around? Glad to be of assistance to help them learn better manners and play til the nap! I am a full time student at Michigan State University but am off for the summer! I am very flexible and can provide care for your pets around my schedule. I’m free on the weekends as well. I am in the Kalamazoo area until August 14th, 2025 due to having to go back to school for clinicals. Since I am not able to keep your pets in my home due to space, I will treat your home with all respect. If you have places and boundaries that are set, they will be followed accordingly. If your pet or myself makes a mess, it will be cleaned up immediately! I have a pet cleaner machine and products to get pet stains out in a jiffy!

“Becka did an outstanding job with communication while taking care of my dog while I was out of town! I could tell she truly cared about my dog and will be using her again in the future.”


“Rachel was great,Duke will miss her and so will I.Your AWSOME Rachel!!”


“Thank you, Kinsay! Came home to happy and healthy kitties. It was so nice to have peace of mind.”


About: I enjoy spending time with animals. My dogs are my sidekicks and there’s always time for friends! The more personality the better! There’s always time for play time. I work full time so my availability is pretty set but I also can be flexible. I do this out of passion, not for money I have a fenced yard and three levels in my house. I can provide the most comfortable environment for your pets needs. Two friendly dogs who would love to host their new best friends!

“Leah did a wonderful job making sure Munchie and Oreo were fed and watered daily per our request. Munchie enjoyed having some extra pets while we were on vacation. Over all we are very pleased with the service Leah provided. We will use again for our next extended vacation”


About: I've had a lot of experience taking care of dogs of all ages. Growing up, we always had several dogs. I would always do the basic stuff you think about, like walking the dogs, feeding the dogs, etc. Ideally, this is what I will be doing for work. I can fit pet care into my schedule and whatever time helps me best do the job. The most important thing would be to follow any directions given to me by the pet owner. After all, they know the pet best. From there, it is about using basic pet care skills that I know I have.

About: From a young age, I've always been happier with a dog around. I've had years of experience owning and caring for dogs. Our family is currently run by 3 giant German Shepherds, and we wouldn't have it any other way ☺️ Over the last 3 years we have had the incredible experience of bringing two of Nala and Koda's litters into the world... hence our newest addition Lucy! That being said I have plenty of experience with puppy care and cleaning. While I do work a full time job, I always have weekends and weekly afternoons available for dog walks and pet care. *available for sitting/dog walking Pet care in my own home would unfortunately not be available. I am open to pet care in a client's home as needed. I am a reliable dog mom of three and boy mom so I believe I would be able to handle any requests or environment.

About: Price will be discounted if payment is made through Venmo. I have 8 dogs of my own that I view as my family. I’ve also work at an emergency vet clinic for 2 years so I know how to monitor their health and what to do in an emergency/ and how to avoid them. I also work as a groomer on the side so if that’s something you are interested in let me know! I’ve had and worked with animals of all types from a young age. However dogs are my soft spot. I can’t express into words the joy these animals bring into my life. My job allows me the flexibility of time and travel! I also have coached and played soccer for many years so being active is a goal of mine! Each client will be a different case and have different needs. I will do whatever’s requested in a professional, friendly, and loving manor. Also previously being a property manager I know the proper way to care when in someone else’s home. Also having worked in vet med I know how to safely care for your pet.

About: I have always had a passion for animals. I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a child. It's always been a love of mine and I want to be able to share my love with other animals as well. You can rest assure your beloved animal will be cared for when you leave them with me. I currently work a full time job. I would be able to care for your pet in the afternoons and weekends currently. I am hoping to be able to open up my schedule more in the future. I can use a leash/harness that you have available to walk your animal or let them outside if needed. I will pay close attention to them and assess whatever they may need.

She takes such great care of Domino and always shows him love and affection. We have never had any issues with her pet care performance and the house is always spick and span when we get home. I could not recommend Grace enough for any and all pet-care needs. You will not find another person more loving to your animal and home.”

Kaitlyn C.
“Kaitlyn has five dogs that receive her constant love and attention. Each dog is so well-trained that they do not need leashes in most situations. She is such a devoted dog mom that at least one of the dogs is with her at all times. They accompany her to workouts, soccer games, and grocery trips where they receive multiple praises about their obedience and calm temperament. She always makes time for her five dogs so you never have to worry about her schedule conflicting and being unable to let your dogs out on time. Such a great human and dog sitter all in one.”


Madelaine P.
“When I went out of town I had Maddie come over to my house to help with feeding and walking my dog. She took great care of him while I was away. I even have her walk my dog and feed him when im late at work. She is a very caring and trustworthy person. I always come home to a happy healthy pet.”
