Dog Sitting in Grand Blanc

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.

“Victoria did a great job! Everything we asked to be completed was done to perfection and we came home to happy and healthy cats. We for sure will haver her back!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, chinchillas, and hamsters. Including grooming, cleaning up after, administering medicine, feeding, etc. I have cared for animals from the moment they are born until old age. I have worked with animals with a wide range of personalities. I am a graduate student at Oakland University so my schedule is fairly flexible. I am currently doing Rover full-time and look forward to meeting your beloved pets. I will love and care for your animal as though it is my own. I will also respect all house rules and make sure your pet is fed, getting enough exercise, and update you regularly. I will stay and play with your pet it will never be a check in and leave.

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.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, having the unique experience raising and training dogs through my father, an experienced police dog trainer and handler. I have a lot of patience and take great care in handling dogs of all breeds. I have skills and experience in crate training, potty training, leash training, getting pets used to kids and other animals, and breaking food and toy aggression. I am available for drop-in visits and walks for all animals. I am able to board up to 3 dogs at a time. I am able to pick up and drop off for an additional fee of $30 each. Pick up and drop off times are flexible. For boards longer than 3 days, I require a “doggy day care” trial with a minimum of 4 hours to ensure your beloved pet and I are good fits for each other. Proof of vaccines required. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have the flexibility to accommodate your pets needs throughout the day. Having three children, we are big fans of routines. I ensure integration of your animals into our daily routine. We live on an acre with a fenced in backyard. Because of the foliage, I do require your dog to be on a tick preventative for their safety. We will keep your fur baby company, loved on and entertained! We spend a lot of time at home, so your pup will never get lonely under our care. I also take time to read your dogs cues and body language and teach my children how to read these and the importance of respecting animals and their boundaries. We treat all animals with love and respect.

About: My whole life has involved animals. As a kid you would often find me hanging out at a neighbor’s house playing with their dog! From a big pit bull to a small chihuahua I have an experience with both big and small dogs. I also have some experience with cats, farm animals and guinea pigs! I love animals and it’s a huge plus if your pet is loving, playful and friendly! Myself I love being active so taking your pet on daily walks is no problem! I currently work Monday through Friday 8-5 with an hour lunch daily. I would be able to take care of your pets in the morning before work, during lunch (already approved by employer) and for a longer period after work. On weekends I am usually open all day long! I currently have two small dogs and a cat. We have a fenced in yard with an in ground pool. Both my dogs are friendly and my cat is shy.

About: I am attending college and am going into a pre-vet major, I love animals, and I would love to take care of any animals in need. I have fostered and taken care of many different animals, all types, and I'd love to take care of yours! I think pet care would fit perfectly into my daily routine so that I could get more experience with all types of animals in different care. I will do anything that anyone needs me to do, I am open to anything. I will care for anything in need like: bathing, dressing, loving, feeding, walking, etc...

“Meagan was wonderful ! This was our first time using Rover.com and My pups loved her. We definitely look forward to booking her again in the future!”

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs for at least 20 years. I love each as if they were my own. I also love turtles, and frogs but don’t have much experience with them. ❤️🐸❤️ I can do dog walking, and any other daily drop ins you may need. My schedule is very open for any house/pet sitting you may need also. I’d like this to be what I do for a career. I am willing to stay with your pet in your home and to walk your dogs in their favorite places. I want them to feel at home and comfortable.

About: My experience lies with all kinds of pets. From cats and dogs to the more exotic chinchillas. I have cared for pets of all ages from puppies to seniors. I have many years of experience in caring for the medically complex pets so administering medications is something I am comfortable doing. The weather is not what matters to me. Your pets care is my highest priority. I am currently working part time so I have a fairly flexible schedule to care for your pets. I look forward to helping you and your family. Safety for all is my number one priority. Happiness for both you and your pet is my number one goal. I will aide by the house rules and your instructions for caring for your pet.

“Jessica was awesome, my dogs loved her! She was super reliable, sent me pictures each visit, and really went above and beyond with my pups. They were calm and happy when I got home, a nice change from previous vacations with other pet sitters. We can’t wait to use Jessica again!”

“BEST DOG SITTERS EVER. They spent so much time with ours dogs and we had a worry-free vacation knowing they were in such good hands. They also did great with our highly anxious cavalier and our very big Bernese mountain dog. Highly recommend and will be using them for all future dog sitting!!!”

“Brittany is so great with Ace! You can tell she really loves and cares for these pups like they’re her own! I feel so comfortable leaving Ace with her and I know he’s getting the best care!”

Alycia C.

“Very attentive and willing to go above and beyond! I will be sure to consider Autumn when my pups need another sitter 😊”

Crystal G.

“Sarah was amazing with our pup! He loves her so much and she made sure he had no accidents the whole visit. She was so great about keeping us updated on how he was doing and sending photos to keep us posted! We would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet and knowledgeable pet sitter. ☺️”

Sarah S.

“Amazing!! Carissa visited our two dogs periodically while we were away for the weekend. It was an unconventional request, and she was very accommodating. Our very shy Jupiter warmed up to Carissa at the first meeting. Can't wait to hire her again!”

About: We will treat your dog(s) as our own. My friends tell me I have a special way of patting dogs and they (the dogs) seem to love it. They will get good belly rubs, behind-the-ear scratches and whatever love they need from both my husband and me. Our large fenced yard will entice your dog(s) to run and play as well as relax. We are comfortable looking after more than one dog at a time as we have a dog of our own. Just an FYI, Fiona, our 14.5 year old passed away in December 2023. We adopted Meeka in February 2024 who loves playing with other dogs and people. We also just adopted Simba in mid-April 2024. He is slowly getting socialized and loves playing with Meeka. They definitely keep each other company! Your dogs will also feel more comfortable in our house knowing that they are welcome and have familiar dog faces and smells here. I am also comfortable taking care of your dog(s) in your house to ensure your fur-children continue to stay in the comforts of their own homes. My husband and I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) soon. My husband and I do this together. We both work full-time at the office but I work 2 days from home. During the in-office days, we will let the dogs out when we wake up and after one of us get back home. The other two days and on weekends, they get let out every 2-3 hours or as and when they need to go. My husband helps me when he’s home and we go for daily walks in the evenings and weekends. We love patting and playing with them as that’s our routine with our own dogs so rest assured, we’ll make sure your dog gets loved too. Meet and greets are always preferred because we want to make sure you’re comfortable with our family and vice versa. If your dog(s) will be in our home, my husband will be helping out. Therefore, we want to make sure our pups play well with each other too. If you need a house sitter while you’re gone because it’s easier and better for your pets to be in the comforts of their own home, it’ll either be my husband or I. In this case, we want to make sure you’re comfortable with both of us. Boarding/Daycare: We have a fenced backyard and require all boarders to be crate-trained and come with a crate, especially for feeding time and if things get wild. For older dogs like when we had Fiona, she struggled to go up and down the deck stairs so I let her out in the front yard which isn’t fenced. However, I went with her and she was great at not taking off with me and my husband. Meeka and Simba are always leashed when they get let out in the front. If you’re worried about your dog being in the front yard, we will always use a leash. Otherwise, the backyard is more than sufficient if they’re okay with stairs. Home Sitting: We will do our best to stick with your routine with your dog. I do work full-time, 2 days from home and my husband goes to the office all 5 days. If your dog loves walks/car rides, we'd be happy to have them meet ours and they can walk together. If there are other animals in your home that's need to be card for, please let us know. I am an animal lover and will learn quickly to care for animals I’ve not taken care of before.
