“The best Rover sitter I have had. Communicative, clean, great with Gertie, and an all around kind, responsible, and trustworthy person. Thank you Acacia! It means the world to me 🥰”

“Carrianne is the best!!! She is always keeping us in the loop with updates and pictures. She takes such good care of our pup and our home when we are out of town! Simply the best!!!❤️”

“Melissa is a great overnight dogsitter. She followed all the instructions for my dog and bullies have a lot of instructions. Ha! She provided updates everyday and you can tell she enjoys dogsitting. I came back to happy dog.”

“Keisha is wonderful! Our pups are very shy but Keisha did a great job helping them warm up. She is sweet, communicative and flexible, and even sent us pics of the girls while she was watching them!”

“Amanda was amazing! I was worried our pets wouldn't want us to come home. She was very attentive, timely, did more than asked and was very patient with our crazy bunch. I highly recommend her!”

“While Evita watched our pup Molly overnight at our house, she was punctual and communicated well. She also took Molly on a nice long walk each day that pleasantly tuckered her out. Molly seemed calm and happy when we returned home.”

“Mikalanne was great with my senior pups who are definitely creatures of habit. Active communication is so reassuring when I have to be away from my pet family. Highly recommend.”

“Alex recently stayed in my condo and watched my french bulldog, Hazel. I cannot say enough great things about Alex! She took Hazel out on numerous adventures and always sent photo updates. Alex would be sure and text if she had any questions as well. She was absolutely wonderful and I know Hazel misses her already. I will definitely book with Alex again.”

“Jasmine was a fantastic person to have house sit for our pets! She sent many updates and photos. I know that she took the best care of our Great Dane (and cat!). I would highly recommend her! Hope we can book her again.”


About: I grew up spending hours reading bedtime stories to the chicks, hens, cats, horses, dogs (and sometimes a spare turtle or rabbit) on my family’s farm. I’ve been lucky enough to gain experience house-sitting pets in rural areas and the city, all around the world as well as volunteering in shelters and fostering! There’s no pet I’m not excited to hang out with!! As a full timer worker, I’m available for dog walking, house visits or house sitting on available weekends and occasional weeknights depending on my schedule and your needs! I’m experienced with dog training, and very patient and calm to letting animals warm up to me. I’m experienced with walking highly reactive dogs and navigating other pet’s body language.

“Rebecca was phenomenal with my little critters! Excellent communication throughout the week and she was able to adjust last minute to needing to give my dog extra TLC and medication. I highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”

“Elizabeth was amazing. We need a last minute dog sitter and she came through and saved vacation! She provided plenty of updates, photos, and videos. Our dog sometimes is a little shy coming out of her crate but she loved Elizabeth. We will definitely use Elizabeth's services again!!”

“Ashley took absolutely excellent care of our cat while we were out of the country for a week! I knew from the moment she met our cat during our meet and greet that our little girl was going to be in great hands. Throughout the trip, Ashley reached out with check-ins and photos reflecting how well she was being taken care of. She also responded quickly to any messages and went above and beyond watching our place. We (and our cat) look forward to seeing her again in the future!”

“Our family had recently experienced a loss of our other pet. It was a tough time for travel but Jessica supported our other pet while we were away. She kept us informed and made the world of difference being away during such a difficult time.”

About: I am a former dog handler that worked at a doggy day care where I cared for multiple dogs daily, managing different temperaments and energy levels. I’m experienced in supervising play, maintaining safety, and keeping dogs calm, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve also owned dogs and cats in my lifetime as well! Genuinely an animal lover. I’m available for morning and evening visits on weekdays, and I have open availability on weekends. I offer flexible scheduling for walks, drop ins, and pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, follow routines closely, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for.
“We love having Cindy to house sit our dog ! Besides taking care of the dog, she does so many other little things to show how much she cares for the people and animals she takes care of!”

“Madeline is a great and responsive sitter. She took great care of our boys, and she charmed our skittish boy. He even crawled on her lap... amazing while he is a lovebug he does not usually warm up that quickly.”

About: I don't actually call myself that, that's what my friends say I am. I've literally never met a dog I didn't get on famously with. I respect the fact that they are individuals with their own needs. I don't mean to sound too self assured with the title, but I earned it from friends. Whether it's running on the Lake Michigan shore or just finding a nice sunny spot to sit for a while, your pup is going to have a fulfilling day. I have huge flexibility so no worries! A last minute trip or planned weeks in advance, we can work something out. I'm here for you! Even same day! I strive for communication as much as possible between animal and human. If they're not feeling like socializing, I don't force anything. Everyone has different needs. My experience in a dog daycare really helped me read and understand dog body language to head off any issues that may arise when you're watching 12 dogs.

“Joe was great with our Fifi, he was really a lifesaver! He stayed at our house as our rescue dog can be a little clingy. I received the cutest pictures and was really able to enjoy myself on vacation knowing she was at home!”

Lily absolutely exceeded my expectations with her attention to detail, genuine care and concern for my pups, and thoroughness! My dogs were well taken care of with feeding, walking (carefully in a heat wave), fireworks, and just general companionship. I also returned to my home probably looking better than how I left it - well cared for, cleaned, and plants alive and well. The daily updates were fantastic and very reassuring. Lily is amazing and I hope we can book again :)

Jackie was amazing with my French Bulldog, Hazel. I was out of the country for a week and she stayed at my condo with Hazel. She sent me updates throughout the day and kept Hazel active, which I love. I would highly recommend Jackie for your dog sitting needs and will definitely use her again.

Marilia was wonderful! Our cat, Zoe, was clearly in highly experienced, responsible, and caring hands. Marilia kept in close touch with any questions that came up and send regular updates. The entire experience gave us great peace of mind and we hope to hire Marilia for future cat-care needs.

Flor was an EXCELLENT sitter to our dog Toast! We left on a trip for 5 days and she took amazing care of not only our dog, but our house as well! She was a great communicator and sent a ton of pictures! She also was great at giving our dog his medicine. We would absolutely book Flor again!

Jamila was amazing with my senior dog Vladimir! She’s helped with feedings and overnights at my house. She is kind, thoughtful, and Vlad loved her! She followed all my instructions and handled my old man with care. We will be asking her to watch Vlad again in the near future! I’m grateful to have found her!

Nicole was simply fantastic. Walter is a new rescue, and has only been with me for about two weeks before I had to travel for work. Nicole kept all of my anxiety about leaving him at Bay, she was incredibly communicative, very patient with my anxious, crazy boy, and even left me a full page document of notes about her observations on him as I’m continuing to understand who he is. While I was away, I was telling some of the individuals I was with about everything she was doing for Walter and they all begged me to give them her information. Will absolutely be reaching out to Nicole in the future!
