“I am SO grateful to have found TzuYu to check in on my cats while I was out of town! She is not only kind and great with animals, but she is also incredibly thorough in getting the full rundown of their routine and making sure they get some play in during her drop-ins. Cannot recommend her enough!”

About: I have cared for dogs my whole life - from my own to those of neighbors and family friends. I am able to care for young puppies to those of a more senior age. I work at a restaurant so have a somewhat flexible schedule. I can do drop ins, overnights, and walks. I would love to help your pet get the care they need! I care for each and every pet like they are my own. First and foremost I will prioritize their safety, and your wishes as the pet parent!

“Laura was excellent when it came to our two cats! She was there to feed and play with them, while also providing copious amounts of pictures of them looking happy and healthy! Definitely hire her if you need a pet sitter!”

Thomas A.

“Kyani is amazing! She takes care of our pups like they are her own. I can see how happy they are while we are away which always gives us peace of mind. One of our pups had some upset stomach issues this trip and she went above and beyond to ensure he was taken care of even getting him probiotics. I cannot recommend her enough and we are very lucky to have found her.”

About: Hi, I'm Emma! By day, I’m a geologist working in brewing operations, but on the weekends, my focus is entirely on providing attentive care for your pets. My professional background means I am incredibly detail-oriented, reliable, and strictly adhere to schedules and routines. My love for animals goes beyond standard pet sitting. I have experience volunteering at The Creature Conservancy in Ann Arbor, MI, where I learned all about animal welfare, and I spent my years in grad school learning about human impacts on urban ecosystems. I also have a deep empathy for rescues and medical care. I personally rescued and successfully nursed my own street cat back to full health, so I am no stranger to administering specialized care, monitoring health cues, and giving extra patience to timid or sensitive animals. I also grew up with sweet rescue dogs- one miniature pinscher, and one Labrador/pitbull mix! Because I work a structured schedule during the week, my weekends are completely dedicated to making sure your pets are safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or gentle, attentive companionship, I'm here to treat them like my own! My schedule allows me to offer dedicated cat care primarily on weekends and Mondays, which are my most flexible days for extended visits and playtime. Additionally, I am available for some early morning/evening drop-ins during the week to make sure your cats are fed, scooped, and loved before the workday begins. Because I maintain a consistent routine, you can count on me to arrive reliably at the specific times your cat expects their meals or medication. Safety and trust are my top priorities when entering your home. As a cat owner who has managed medical recovery, I am hyper-vigilant about environmental safety, including double-checking that windows and doors are securely shut, and ensuring all hazardous items are well out of reach. I respect that cats are territorial, so I focus on keeping their environment calm, clean, and consistent. I will provide detailed daily updates and photos so you have total peace of mind that your home is secure and your cat is thriving.

“Christina does a wonderful job with my dog ! Would highly recommend!”

Jazmine H.

“This was my first time using Rover and doing drop In visits. I would definitely recommend. Hannah was excellent with my timid little older dog that had a slipped disc. He warmed up to her quickly, was excited to see her when she came and didn’t want her to leave; she took the best care of him. She left detailed updates daily with pictures. I was away for a week and she even offered to water my plants. I will definitely use Hannah again! Thank you so much!”

About: Since I was a little girl, I’ve known my calling was to work with animals and their guardians. It has never been just a hobby or an interest. It has been a lifelong calling that continues to shape who I am. Animals give me a deep sense of purpose. I believe they have the power to restore, rehabilitate, and teach us. Through their loyalty, resilience, trust, and unconditional love, they remind us of the qualities we should strive to reflect in our own lives. That belief is the foundation of everything I do. Throughout my life, I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds and personalities, from Great Danes to Pit Bull and Husky mixes. Today, I care for my special-needs English Mastiff, Kayser, and have worked with senior dogs, rescue dogs, and animals with unique behavioral and medical needs. Every experience has reinforced the importance of patience, consistency, compassion, and understanding that every animal is an individual with its own story. My commitment to animal welfare led me back to school to pursue professional dog training. I have earned certifications in animal welfare, pet CPR, and first aid, and my training philosophy is rooted in positive reinforcement, clear communication, and evidence-based practices. I believe educating guardians is just as important as training their dogs because lasting success comes from strengthening the relationship between both ends of the leash. My mission is to bridge the gap between animals and their guardians by fostering understanding, trust, and lifelong partnerships. While obedience is important, I believe true success is measured by behavioral wellness, emotional enrichment, and creating an environment where both people and their pets can thrive together. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine, so I’ve learned to build my schedule around it. I’m usually up early to handle morning feedings, walks, and check-ins. This allows me to be available from midmorning through early afternoon for appointments, training sessions, or visits. I also maintain flexibility during the evenings and weekends for clients who need additional support or have specific routines for their pets. Because animals are part of my daily life, providing exceptional care, whether for my own pets or someone else’s, comes naturally. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention I’d want in my own. I stick closely to the routines the pet is familiar with, whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or playtime, because consistency helps them feel secure. I take my time to build trust with each animal using gentle handling and positive reinforcement. I also pay close attention to their behavior and energy so I can recognize signs of stress or discomfort early. My goal is always to keep pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while giving families peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring, capable hands.

“Thank you so much! I’ll touch base with you on Saturday about the key. You should probably just keep it since I’ll be traveling more soon. Talk soon.”
