House Sitting in Goodrich

“She took great care of our elderly dogs. She went above and beyond for us by taking in our mail and checking on a few things we forgot. Her communication was appreciated and my kids loved that she would send us picutures.”

“Kathy is simply the best!!! I can tell from the photos she sent during our trip that our Critters absolutely adored her based on the smiles on their sweet faces and we agree that she is a rare gem! Not only did she take pawfect care of our Pack, our Nest was nicely cared for as well!! I especially appreciate that she is able to spend so much time with the Critters as Critter Sitting is her main gig! Highly recommend! We’ve already booked future dates and are all looking forward to seeing Kathy again! 🐾🐾💚”

“I can't thank Aja enough for watching my 2 crazy beagles! She spent the weekend at the house, sending me updates. When we arrived back from home it's like she was never there! She was very respectful to my home. I will definitely be booking her again in the future! The dogs loved her, we love her!”

“Jessica is an amazing dog sitter! She cared for our fur babies while we were out of town. The house was left in the same manner she originally found it. The dogs happily adjusted to her and she treated them like family. She also sent pictures each day of each of our dogs. Jessica is a trustworthy, dependable dog sitter. I HIGHLY recommend her!!”

“5 Stars – Hands down the BEST dog sitter we've ever had! Carissa is an absolute gem! From our very first meet-and-greet, she was incredibly thorough—asking every important question and answering all of ours with patience and clarity. We instantly felt at ease leaving our 9-year-old Apollo in her care. She was always extremely responsive, easy to reach, and wonderfully accommodating to both Apollo's needs and ours (including bringing in mail and packages). Our home was left spotless and tidy. The daily updates were a highlight—multiple photos and messages each day showing Apollo happily running in the yard, playing indoors, getting tons of cuddles, and smiling with his chompers lol. Seeing how content and loved he was allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our family vacation without a single worry! When our flight was unexpectedly canceled and rescheduled (leaving us stuck in airports for an extra 30 hours), Carissa immediately and graciously agreed to stay an additional night. Knowing Apollo was in such capable, caring hands made a stressful travel day, much easier. Carissa's professionalism, genuine love for dogs, and thoughtful attention to detail made our trip better than we could have hoped. We've never felt more comfortable or at peace leaving our senior pup with anyone else. She is now our first and only choice for future sittings! Thank you, Carissa—you're phenomenal! ♥️”

About: I have loved animals from a very young age, convincing my parents to get me my own dog when I was 10 years old. Her name was Zoey! I trained her myself, and she was my best friend. Not long after that, I began dog sitting for friends and eventually also spent time cat sitting and taking care of animals like chickens and bunnies. I adore pets of all shapes and sizes, and I understand entirely the immense value they have in our lives. I want nothing more than to make you feel safe allowing me to care for your best friends. I am occupied from 8am to 6pm Monday through Friday, but I am free most weekends and available to care for pets in the evenings. I make sure all animals are well fed and watered as fits their schedule. Also, I understand the importance of activity and quality time and make sure to play with them, take them on regular walks, and give them lots of love.

“I found McKenzie through the Rover app, and she did an amazing job with my fur babies!! They were calm and content when I got home. I LOVED the picture updates and communication while I was away. McKenzie took good care of my home and belongings, and I will definitely utilize her services again in the future! Thank you McKenzie!!!”

“I'm truly thankful to have met and hired Yushonda. I have watched over 100 dogs, and I mean it when I say she is a step above everyone else. Mara is dog aggressive and dismissive of people and very slow to build trust. Yushonda would not settle for good enough or merely being present in the house. She strived and worked hard to build that trust, working with Mara, making her presence known, and building trust at Mara's pace. I was shocked to hear Mara got comfortable enough to jump right in bed on the first night. I had expected at the end of the stay for our dog to maybe allow pets, instead she made a great new friend by the first day and asked for belly rubs, something she only does for 3 people. Yushonda instilled trust not only in Mara but also us. Without her, we would have not been able to have gone on our trip and been able to see family, relax, and be at ease. Send Yushonda a message, you and your fur baby will not regret it or think about hiring someone else. I am so happy to know we have someone that will care about our baby as much as we do. I'm so thankful to finally have someone I can whole heartedly recommend, with full confidence, to watch my client's pets and know she will live up to that recommendation and always go above and beyond.”

About: I've lived with and cared for cats and dogs my entire life, and I started pet-sitting for friends and family about five years ago. I have experience with animals of all sizes and ages. I'm a college student currently on break for the summer, so my schedule is very open. I'm flexible and can be available whenever works for you. I'm unable to board pets in my home, but I am available to check in on your pets frequently or be there with them around the clock if necessary.

“Kristy is always calm and welcoming to our somewhat cautious dog. He warms up to her quickly and becomes her best friend. I felt very comfortable having Kristy watch our pets.”

About: I have pet sat in my home and drop by visits of, dogs, cats, lizards, and fish for the past 8 or so years for money and have owned pets my whole life. I have watch anywhere from 1 to 7 dogs at a time and have multiple cats at one time. If I am doing drop by visits I perfer spend about 1 hour or more at the house each visit. During this time I will feed, water, let animals use bathroom, clean any and all messes inside and outside of the home, and play inside and/or outside with the pet. I take pictures for each visit of the pets as well as send a synopsis of the visit to the pet owner upon request. The day of or prior to the owner returning, I can sweep and mop the main living area or vacuum especiallyif it has been wet outside. If you let me know where bathing and brushing equipment is, I am also willing to wash and brush any and all pets prior to the pet owner coming home. This way the owner can come home and enjoy time with their pet rather than cleaning. I am a military veteran who is taking time off my job as a veterinary assistant to help care for alling family member. Due to my experience with military I am very time oriented and organized, but can function well in crazy environments as well. In addition to that with my experience of working in the veterinary field I am well adapt to give medication and handle medical emergencies with animals. This being said if I notice a medical issue with your pet I will take it to be seen, but will notify you prior to taking them. I personally have a diabetic cat, so I am also comfortable with giving injections and taking blood glucose reading from pets. I also have experience giving fluids under the skin if the animal is in renal failure or for any other reason. I am comfortable giving pills to animals that need medication in that form as well. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I am able to visit your home at any time with the exception of 7 am to 8 am and 7 pm to 8 pm when I need to feed and medicate my own diabetic cat. If there is a time I am unable to visit due to care of my family I will let you know prior to our booking. Dogs will go on daily walks around the neighborhood to relieve any pent up energy and/or have yard time if you have a fenced in yard. All pets will receive lots of pets, love, and play time from myself.

“Lauren was great. She kept us updated constantly while we're gone and made sure all our crazy animals were well taken care of.”

“Mia is a very caring and loving sitter. This was her first time sitting for us and she had a couple of doggie peculiarities to deal with and she handled them well. We have an older dog who is somewhat spoiled but she was treated with love and patience. She communicated with us to keep us updated. I felt very comfortable the way Mia cared for our pet and our home.”

Marion F.

“Kiara was AMAZING! Her pup Wednesday and my dog got along great. I knew my dog was in great hands with her as she is such a dog lover. My dog also needed to take medication everyday and Kiara got her to take it easy!”

About: I have worked with many different dogs including dogs who require medication, dogs with anxiety, dogs who are slow to warm up to people and dogs with energetic personalities. I also work very well with cats and have a lot of experience caring for both indoor and outdoor cats. My family has owned pets ever since I was a kid so I have grown up with animals and am very comfortable around them. As an entrepreneur I have a very open schedule. I am available all times of day on weekdays and frequently have availability for weekends. I have some availability for Holliday’s. I closely follow the owners instructions for how they want their house and pets treated while I’m there. If you do not have a yard to let your pets roam free in I am able to take them on walks as often as needed. I follow feeding instructions and I am extra careful to make sure that dogs with special diets get what is needed and don’t receive what they can’t have.

About: No matter if your pet is big or small I will love them with all of my heart and spoil them. I believe pets need extra attention when their families are away so they don’t feel left behind. I work during the week but on the weekends I’d love to help you with your pet so you can take that weekend getaway you deserve! I’m a huge animal lover and this is honestly a great opportunity for me to get to love on as many animals as possible. I am very careful when opening outside doors to ensure everyone stays safe. I always triple check fences and keep an eye out for any potential risks.

“I was great having a dog sitter like David, someone who spent a lot of time with my dogs and was very trustworthy. We had good communication while I was out of town. The dogs seemed to really like him. I would highly recommend him to take care of your pets.”

About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I currently own a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m very comfortable handling both high-energy dogs and smaller breeds that need extra attention and care. Caring for my own dogs has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like family. I understand that every animal has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced in walking, feeding on schedule, providing playtime, administering basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable with puppies that need extra patience and energy, as well as with older dogs that may need a calmer, gentler approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dogs. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need throughout the day. Since I’m organized and good at managing my time, I’m flexible and dependable for drop-in visits or walks during the week! I enjoy staying active, so taking dogs on walks or spending time playing with them is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s sticking to a pet’s normal routine or giving extra attention when needed, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important routines are for pets, so I make sure to follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress while their owner is away. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs through my own pets, a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m comfortable handling different energy levels and personalities. I keep environments clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always prioritize safety during walks, outdoor time, and interactions. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and give owners peace of mind, knowing their pets are in caring, dependable hands.
