“Chloe took care of my elderly cat for a week while I was out of town. He had a bit of a health scare, which I shared with Chloe prior to confirming the booking, and this didn’t deter her from accepting the job. She was willing to administer meds if needed and followed my (probably overkill) instructions without hesitation. Thanks, Chloe!”

About: I have done work in first aid and training with animals for most of my life. Pets are a part of your family and deserve the best! I work 9 to 5:30 in houghton Lake Thurs.,fri.,sat., mon.,and Tues. On Sundays I work 10-4. I am fully available on Wednesday and Thursdays. I can fit pet care in the mornings and afternoons on workdays. Keeping pets safe, happy and comfortable is a must. I have two gentle giants of my own and a large yard to run and play while supervised.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for years! The best feeling is seeing playful cats and dogs and knowing that you can make them happy. I am reliable and caring towards all animals. I am typically available any time. I have pets of my own and I will give your pets the same care I would give mine. I have two dogs (Koa) (Colby) and one cat (Kevin). They are well cared for and love playtime! While caring for your pets I can feed them, play with them, crate dogs if needed as well as long walks.
“Andrew is awesome- do not hesitate to hire him! This was my first experience with Rover, and Andrew made sure everything went smoothly. It was so nice to be able to leave my cat in her own space while I was out of town, and although she can be skittish around new people, Andrew won her over, and I could tell she was well taken care of. Andrew is sweet, respectful, reliable, and clearly great with pets. Thanks, Andrew!”

About: I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and consistency. I’m comfortable with dogs who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra time to warm up. I have experience caring for senior pets, including giving medication and understanding their slower pace and changing needs. I’m also detail-oriented and great at following specific routines, which makes me a reliable option for drop-in visits and regular walks. Whether your pet needs a brisk walk, a potty break, or just some company while you’re away, I’m happy to help keep their tail wagging and their day on track. I am available for walks and drop in’s Monday - Friday from 9am - 3pm EST. Just let me know in advance and I’ll be there! I treat my client’s home with the utmost respect. You have nothing to worry about when you invite me to drop in on your pet.
About: Hi! My name is Marissa and I am 25 years old. I am an ambitious, adventurous, vivacious individual. I am currently in my second year of college at Mott Community College working toward my Associate's in Psychology, so that I may then transfer to the University of Michigan to achieve my Bachelor's. Once achieving my Bachelor's, I would like to work as a counselor for a few years before going back to school for my Master's so that I may eventually become a bereavement therapist and open a private practice. I am currently a member of the Psychology Society at Mott and I was selected to join the Mott Community College's chapter of The National Society of Leadership and Success. I have been taking care of dogs of various breeds since I was old enough to take care of myself, having owned numerous amounts of dogs for about 20 years. Neighbors, friends, family, and a few Rover clients have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and spend time with their pets for the past 5 years -- possibly longer. I am not certified yet, but I intend to take a CPR & First Aid course for dogs as soon as possible -- hopefully, I never have to use it. But it would bring me peace of mind knowing that if there were ever a situation with my dog or someone else's dog, I'd know what to do. I intend to take a pet grooming course as I would be able to offer more grooming services. And lastly, I also intend to take a dog obedience/training course so that I may offer training services as well. Being a full-time student takes up the majority of my time, thus I am looking to start up cleaning, dog walking/dog-sitting, and babysitting/nannying businesses so that I may keep a steady income for the next few years. I am taking all of my classes online and will eventually switch to going on-campus for my classes, but that will most likely be in a few years when I am attending U of M -- which would require me to move out of the Northern Michigan area. As a member of the Psychology Society and the NSLS, I may occasionally need to travel for a couple of days to Flint for an event -- especially considering I may apply for and take on one of the positions in the Psychology Society. With that being said, I would prefer to have a decent amount of time to prepare and set a date on my calendar for any services I will be providing for you. I will also make sure to keep my availability up-to-date. I would also appreciate cancellations to be in advance as well, but I do understand that life happens. In clients' homes, I will take your fur baby/babies to any nearby parks and/or long walks on any trails. I offer grooming services such as bathing, ear cleaning, and hair brushing. I request that if I am in your home, you leave me a list of my responsibilities. I do not mind caring for young puppies that are still in the process of potty training. I just request that you let me know exactly what cleaning supplies you would like me to use to clean up any messes if he/she has an accident -- preferably this won't happen as I will be around and will have the time necessary to avoid accidents inside. Currently, I am not offering boarding or doggy daycare services because my dog does not get along well with other dogs. But I do plan to start offering those services again in the future... I have a decent-sized yard, but it is not fenced in. I have a leash hooked up outside to easily let your dog/dogs out for potty breaks if the weather is too bad for a walk. I have two full baskets filled with toys from bark box to play with and I try to stay stocked up on treats from the Three Dog Bakery! You can bring your treats as well if you give your dog a specific brand of treats. I have no problem with dogs getting on my furniture, but I do also have an extremely comfortable Serta dog bed if you have taught them to stay off of furniture. If your dog is puppy pad trained rather than trained to go potty outside, then I would need you to provide the pads as I do not have any. I am also okay with boarding/dog-sitting a puppy in my home once I am offering those services again as well, even if he/she is still in the process of potty training. I just request that you provide a kennel or crate in case I need to leave my home for anything. I would not leave the puppy attended for longer than an hour and a half.
