House Sitting in Elsie

“Makayla did a wonderful job caring for my two dogs for an extended time. Will be using her services again since they loved her as a dogsitter.”

“Cindy was fantastic! She went above and beyond to make sure our fur baby felt comfortable while we were away. She was professional, punctual and made us feel 100% at ease while we were away. Highly recommended ❤️”

About: I have had plenty of animals of my own including but not limited to- cats, dogs, fish, lizards, turtles, birds, rabbits, chickens and other farm animals. I have house sat for many different types of families. Full farms, medically challenged pets, senior animals, young animals. I love them all dearly! I currently work from home Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and some Saturdays. I cannot do overnights on Mondays and Tuesdays due to my work schedule. I am home almost daily and love to walk my pets and others before work, on my lunch, or after work. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have plenty of leashes and secured leads. We live on a slow dirt road. No pet, even mine, is ever outside unattended or unleashed. I will follow whatever rules are laid out for me regarding your home if I am caring for your animal in their space.

About: I have owned pets my entire life. From a little shitzu to a big pitbull. I have watched friends and family's dogs over the years and now looking to help other people with their fur babies. I was a dental hygienist but due to my twins needing more support I have decided to become a stay at home mom. I figured I needed to find things to help keep me busy when they're in pre school and why not have it spent doing something I enjoy. Whatever your needs are for your Fur babies im all open ears. I want you to have trust with me with your animals. I'm a great communicator and will always respond and will send pictures !

About: At an early age, I started walking the neighborhood dogs. I’ve always loved animals, and treat them as my own. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their pets and take them out when needed. I’m very attentive and will treat every animal with the kindness they deserve. I work from home three days a week, and have the weekends off. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can take my work with me anywhere I go. Caring for your pets in your home will be my main priority. I will make sure they are well taken care of, loved, and feel safe.

“Micah was so sweet and very attentive to the needs of my pets. Will definitely be using her for any of our future needs!”

About: I use to work for my grandmother who would raise dogs, take care of them, and then give someone a dog. I would clean up after dogs in all ways. Take care of the puppies with the moms. I would bathe all the dogs and get them groomed up to go to their new home! I am available after 4:30 P.M. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. After 3:30 P.M. on Wednesdays. And available most times and nights on the weekends! At this moment in time I do not have the ability or place to actually house sit at my home but, I can come to you!

“Hannah was wonderful! We had a last minute need for a dogsitter, and she was able to accommodate our schedule in a pinch. She was a great communicator, super reliable, and our pups loved her!”

Molly F.

“Marlana was prompt and our dog was very content when we got home. She communicated often and left the house neat. We would use her again.”

Marion F.

About: I really enjoy spending time with animals. I’ve done long stays for a few people and take care of a dog at home. I am always willing to learn more and add to my resume of pet sitting. I am currently working a part time job. I work anywhere form 16-30 hours a week because i’m in retail. I am looking for something to fill the gaps!! Unfortunately I will not be able to care for animals in my home due to my family dog. She doesn’t do well with other animals. In the clients home I would follow all instructions given and spend lots of time with your pet, all while treating your home and your animal with the upmost respect.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience and deep, personal connection with dogs of all ages. With over three years of experience, I’ve been trusted by clients and family alike to care for their pets—whether it’s energetic puppies needing structure and training, or senior dogs who require patience and gentle attention. I’ve trained my own dogs from puppyhood, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and care. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Whether it’s feeding, walking, cleaning, or just spending quality time with animals, I make space for it consistently. I’m already used to structuring my days around the needs of pets, from early morning potty breaks to evening playtime or check-ins. Being flexible and dependable allows me to give each pet the attention they deserve, and I take pride in making their care a regular, reliable part of my week. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space with a consistent routine for feeding, walks, play, and rest—just like I do for my own pets. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their routines and preferences, making sure their pets stay comfortable with minimal disruption. I follow all instructions carefully, keep the space clean (including litter boxes, food areas, and floors), and always make sure pets feel loved, secure, and well-cared-for while you’re away.

“Lauren was amazing!! So communicative and friendly. She took great care of my old man dog and was willing to accommodate all his special care needs! Will definitely be using her again!”

About: I am passionate about animals and a dependable, loving caregiver! I am a trustworthy sitter who believes every animal no matter the size deserves love, consistency and a comfortable environment! I am a student and I am looking for a part time job to during the week Monday- Thursdays, occasionally taking weekends. I am very open to different times and locations. I have had dogs and cats all my life and have never had issues keeping them safe, so you can feel calm and taken care of. I am not available for boarding at my house but I am willing to stay at clients houses over night or all day long!

About: I Trained my first dog Hank, a pit/lab mix, he's so smart I love him. I’ve cared for a variety of dogs in the past and seem to have a personality they enjoy. I've worked with Dogs as big as Akitas to as small as Teacup Yorkies with no problems. I've had to care for elderly dogs as well and accommodated them in many ways ranging from diaper changes to carrying them to and from their destinations I’m currently a part-time food runner/ dishwasher at Hopcat in East Lansing, I hope to become a server soon but need to supplement my income to pay the bills. I’m from Traverse city, and will be returning there for a week every month this summer. My schedule is flexible and I typically am available most evenings and at least 2-4 full days a week Around my home there are ample trails to walk on, I have a massive dog bed that I've been using as a bean bag, plenty of indoor play space and I have not pets living with me currently so its just me. I do live right off Burcham Dr., but my house has double doors and a keypad so its not a concern of mine. Great dog walking neighborhood and lots of open space across the street to play as well.

“Anthony has a big heart. He was able to stay with my 2 medium sized dogs over the holiday on a short notice. It was great to have Anthony in our home. He has a very professional and kind personality. Thanks Anthony!”

About: I've cared for several dogs and cats for friends and family, from basic care to 24/7 care. Grew up around animals as my mom is a vet I'm currently working part time from home, so I can easily work from anywhere from a laptop. Will only need to leave to grocery shop and feed my own cat I much prefer it when pet owners leave a written set of instructions I can follow to the letter, ensuring only the best care for your fur baby(s) and allowing you peace of mind on your travels.

“Kumar was amazing. Very young and took a huge responsibility of watching my babies for an emergency trip to Texas. He came even though I did not have a long time for the trip. Watched and took care of my art babies! Very much worth going on rover for. I could have kenneled them but they have anxiety. Boi, had the worst anxiety and constantly whines. But he had no issues and that gave me peace of mind and soul! If we ever need to go anywhere, he will be the first person I call thru rover! Thank you!”

Gina B.

“Heather did a great job giving us updates and keeping all of our animals happy and safe. Even had to deal with a local power outage with no issues. Definitely will book again!”

About: I have a lot of experience with dogs, from small ones to, well, for lack of a better word, titan ones. While I have not necessarily trained or cared for puppies, I have cared for dogs who were very very young. I am in between jobs right now and I enjoy finding excuses to spend time with animals, no matter what species they are. I have finished this semester's classes already and am open to any manner of dates to watch a mutt, feline or lizard. I have 2 cats that live with me at the moment but other than that, I have a modest living area, but I do not have a fence on the property.
