House Sitting in Grass Lake

“Evan was GREAT ! He contacted me very quickly regarding a medical concern one of my Great Danes was having. He was very quick to reply to all my messages and sent smiling pictures of the dogs to put me at ease. I was especially surprised to see the floors and bedding washed and clean upon my arrival. My Danes fell in love with him during the meet and greet visit and will definitely use him for all our dog care needs. Cora”

“Heather was responsible and showed up at the scheduled times. She kept in great communication/sent pictures. Our dog seemed well adjusted upon our return and I'd call that a success. Thanks, Heather.”

“Emily is amazing! She worked around our wonky schedule to help make sure our fur babies were well cared for!”

“Valerie was amazing and my dogs loved her. She came and visited 2 times to meet the dogs, spend time with them and get to know them before my trip. She came over on the day I was leaving to be with the dogs before I left so they would not be alone after I left. It is comforting to know that someone is there with them at night and throughout the day, so they are not all alone. She sent me pictures and updates and said how much she loved my dogs, and they were so good. She washed the bedding, the towels and wiped the counter tops and swept the floor too. I definitely felt at ease and could enjoy myself so much more knowing how well cared for they were being taken care of. She even asked if the dogs could sleep in bed with her, and I told her if she wanted them too, it was fine with me. Evie is a bed hog and snores, which she agreed she did that. lol I would definitely use Valerie again! Thank you for giving me peace of mind and taking such good care of my babies.”

About: Hello everyone! I have been on Rover for a few years now and have experienced alot so far but I am sure that I will still get a surprise here and there! I try to take all surprises with grace and just learn from them! We have: bones, hard yak cheese sticks, frisbee, balls, soft stuffy toys, rope toys, bubble machine, dog pool and pounce sprinkler, lick mats, sniff mats, puzzle toys, we do some arts and crafts, homemade frozen enrichment bowls, if you request a bath for your dog I have multiple deshedding tools. Blankets, crates, extra bowls and diapers if needed. I am investing a lot into my doggy business. I recently made a small indoor gated area that has mats layed down for optimal comfort during indoor play and sleeping. I am in the process of creating an additional fenced in area in my yard that will feature a sand pit for those that love to dig, turf grass to contain the mud and a climbing feature for king of the hill! I can give your dog the patience it may need for basic training along with draining out some of the coopt up energy so they can listen better! Training in wee hours doesnt bother me at all and can even be fun. I have kids that are not rough or overly involved with animals and that also know some basic training. Any medication or special request can also be discussed and accommodated. Any questions just feel free to ask. Thanks for reading and considering me for your fur baby. I currently work from home so am pretty flexible when it comes to accommodating what works best for my pet parents! My mom is also very helpful in the chance that I do leave home, she resides with me! I have a decent sized fenced backyard for being in the city. We love to play fetch and run perimeter. Inside we like to use our indoor manners. Typically all of the dogs sleep together with blankets and cushions that I provide in a space that is about 10x10. I do have crates to utilize if it is the pet parents preference or if we have concerns with potty or chewing issues (I may utilize a doggy diaper when in doors if your dog marks inside) . Some dogs do get to sleep in a separate space from other dogs or in a room with one of my kids if that is where they feel the most comfortable and behave the best.

“This was our first Rover experience and we were very happy. Alexander took excellent care of our 14 year old doggie, Gracie and our also home. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house. We highly recommend Alexander. He kept us up to date on Gracie daily with pix included. Well done!!”

“Amber has stayed several times with my senior dog and cat who need a lot of attention and care including diapers and medications. She has done a great job keeping them on track and cared for and provides them with love and affection, devoting time and patience with their care. She responds quickly when I’m checking in on them and reaches out if she has questions or concerns. I trust her completely with my fur babies.”

“Sierra was a great caregiver to hour 8 year old german shepherd mix! I loved having her around as she would get all the zoomies out of our sweet boy. Sierra is also reliable and and responsible caregiver. 10/10!”

“Nicole was great. She sent me photos so I knew my guy was doing well.”

“Sarah house sat with our 3 dog pack for the weekend and did a great job for us. Our dogs were happy at home while we travelled. Sarah made sure they enjoyed all the comforts they are accustomed to with us at home, helped them burn off energy and from the pictures she left us, all had a great time together.”

About: As my full time job I work as a bather at pet smart salons and will be going to school for grooming soon through pet smart. With working full time in the grooming salon at pet smart, Im looking to fill my extra time with helping others in taking care of their animals without stress and ensuring a happy life for both pet and parent! I do have dogs of my own that could help with socializing, if your dog likes being around other dogs. Otherwise we have local dog parks your dog park can visit, i love walking, which is perfect for an active pup. I will work with most situations thrown at me so please feel free to let me know what you would like done or any recommendations to ensure your pup has a great time! I also have a cat who has so many toys and loves to play, so i always have a laser pointer and a teaser to ensure lots of play and fun for the sweet kitties i look after. In my picture’s I’ll have dogs that I’ve groomed and loved having, if they look good to you and youre interested in my services you can book with me at petsmart for a nice spa day for your pup!

“Louise watched my Ava a 11 lb Yorkiepoo.. she takes her on walks for exercise and to use the bathroom.. she makes sure she gets her treats.. and she also cuddles and loves on her when Ava allows..”

“This was our first time using Rover and having McKenzie pet/house sit for us. We were very happy with McKenzie's services and communication. She sent daily pictures and updates on our pet. She was so accomodating and left the house in immaculate condition. Will definately be using her services in the future.”

“Bre is a very hardworking person with a big heart. She loves animals & has two dogs of her own. Both of her dogs are big & one is a puppy so she knows how to handle an energetic or big dog as well as small dogs. I definitely recommend Bre for the job & think she would do really well giving proper care to the pets we love so much!”

“Emily did an exceptional job taking care of our two dogs and our home while housesitting. She was responsive, communicative, and the dogs were happy and healthy when we got home. We highly recommend her and are so grateful she was available. Truly went above and beyond to make sure the dogs were safe, including offering to sweep berries off the deck to keep the dogs from eating them. (They fell from a tree after a storm).”

“Kathryn was fantastic! Our pup needed eye ointment and skin treatments several times a day and she kept him on the mend while we were out of town! I could tell he was having fun from the photos and videos Kathryn sent. He was totally relaxed when we returned. We will absolutely use Kathryn again for our pup!”

“Madison was a great sitter! She listened to my dog's needs and asked follow-up questions. She responded timely. I had great peace of mind having her watch my reactive pup.”

About: I was raised on a farm around many different animals and dogs which kindly molded me to be compassionate and patient with all our furry friends! (Or not furry!) I’ve worked in boarding facilities and have experience in some grooming, nail trimming, and administering medications. I will always bring a first aid kit to all visits (yes even walks!) and know how to preform cpr on dogs and have basic first aid knowledge. I will be offering boarding in home by the start of fall, unfortunately while our home is undergoing some minor renovations, we can’t risk the safety of your animals and will be only doing stays or visits at your home! I’ll have my profile updated as soon as this changes! I am currently apprenticing under a dog trainer in puppy training and behavioral modification focusing on fear reactivity! I spent the last 10 years training my pup with anxiety and fear reactivity so I am no stranger to those behaviors. If your dog has special needs just be transparent and we can even do a meet and greet before hand to make sure I have your trust and your dog does as well. I know how difficult it can be for some dogs or cats to be watched outside of their comfort zone. I’m happy to make accommodations for their needs always. <3 I am a full time artist, so I am home all week! If I am watching your animals overnight/days at a time, I will be making trips home here and there to work and care for my animals at home, but will always be back within 2-4 hours! If your animals need more intense watching or care please let me know and we can work together to arrange that! I’m happy to bring my work to your house if needed. Depending on the needs of your animals I’ll be keeping them enriched and happy! Walks, playtimes, and I have enrichment toys I’m happy to bring to your home! As stated in my experience section, I’m happy to accommodate your animals needs as best I can!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, etc. since I was 16. Have always had dogs of my own growing up. Recently got cats about 5 years ago! Watched all sizes of dogs and different breeds as well. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday every week from 7:30-4:30, but other than that I am a pretty open book. Weekends almost always look free for me! My boyfriend also helps me so he can provide additional assistance as needed. I have a fenced in yard. They are fed twice a day, once in morning and once at night. They are allowed on the furniture but are trained and good listeners. I give them lots of attention!
