About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart ever since I was young! I don’t just care for animals, I understand them! Every wag, glance, and every little moment tells a story, and I listen. The care I give them is more than just routine, it’s a bond built on trust and patience and love! Right now I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule that naturally includes plenty of time for pet care! My day is a blend of family time and playful moments with animals from morning walks to afternoon play sessions! In any home, in every moment, I offer more than care! I offer understanding. Whether it's a playful pup needing adventure, a senior pet seeking quiet comfort, or an anxious soul looking for reassurance, I listen. I create a space where pets feel safe, seen, and loved, whether in my home or theirs. My care is built on trust, patience, and the deep, unspoken bond I share with the animals in my life!

“Stephanie was great and our dogs had a great time with her!”
“Jon was so great! He communicated consistently and cared for my cats and dogs as if they were his own. I loved receiving daily pictures and hearing how everyone was doing. He went above and beyond with his care for our pets and our home.”
“Keith was wonderful at accommodating our last minute weekend house sitting request. It was our first time being away from our pup after only 3 weeks of ownership. We explained the situation to Keith, and he came over for a meet and greet. Our dog took to him right away and put our mind at ease. Keith is personable, respectful and a clear dog lover. We look forward to booking with him again.”
“Whenever we need to travel and family isn’t around we get super anxious as we can’t trust just anyone with our amazing dog, Peach, who is dog aggressive. Finding Jonnie took that anxiety away. Upon meeting him, he took great interest in Peach and her routines. He walked her and took plenty of notes. He also met up with us again before leaving. By the time we left, my anxiety was gone. Jodie took perfect care of Peach, and our house. He also sent a TON of pictures, morning, midday and evening, which really comforted my wife and I. It was nice to see Peach hanging out in our home and at content in our absence. I highly recommend Jonnie.”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was 8 years old, including taking care of my senior dog until he passed away at 15 years old. I am the go to person when family and friends need help with dog walking/sitting! Happy to help the Rover community with anyone’s dog needs :) I am currently free Monday-Saturday. Your dog will have 24 hour supervision and walks up to 3x/day for boarding. I am available also daily walks, house visits, and house sitting if requested. I live in a well secured and spacious apartment on the 15th floor. My apartment is surrounded by a park and I will ensure your pet is on a leash at all times when outside!

“Emily was fantastic with our puppy. She sent pictures and updated us on how the day was going. Our dog was immediately comfortable with her and they had a great day together!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every size (small, medium, large) and household cats! Love to teach (or at least try to teach) your pups new tricks when you're away. I work at U of M Hospital, so I will have time to hang out with your animals most days of the week (mornings, evenings, nights) and weekends! Safety is my top priority when it comes to caring for your animals. Depending on the animal, I'll work with the owner to make sure we have a safety plan in place.
“Thanks so much for taking such great care of Polo! Naeema was kind and attentive to our 2-year-old dog. She worked with him on training, took him to the dog park, and gave him his eye medication twice a day. We so appreciate the care she gave him! Highly recommend!!”

He treats our dogs like family, and they've come to love him as family, too! You'd be lucky to have Ahab care for any of your canine/feline loved ones.”
