About: I've been a dog owner most of my life and also have two grand dogs and a grand cat who I care for often. I'm experienced with any age, any sized dog and regularly walk two dogs at a time. When can we meet? I'm looking for a way to meet more dogs when away from my grand dogs and want to walk / and exercise more while providing a trustworthy option for your pet(s)! Inclement weather doesn't matter if your pet doesn't mind it. I'm already an experienced and trusted house sitter, plus dog and cat sitter (and can care for houseplants & yards too). I'll respect your privacy and care for your home & pets like I would my own. I'll provide updates and photos to put you at ease. I truly understand that your pets are your children.

About: I am a dog lover who currently owns 3 dogs, a terrier mix, a standard poodle, and a Doberman. My husband and I love animals and have grown up around different types of pets, which is why dog sitting is a perfect fit for me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I acquired my love for animals from my father. Since before I was born, he has always owned a dog. The first dog I remember having was a Husky named Brandon. We named him Brandon because of the dog on "Punky Brewster" and I must have been only around 4 years old! My experience administering medication I have experience administering medication to my own pets and others pets as well. I’m a stay at home mom, which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s). We love playing outdoors and our dogs are like family to us! I have a dog run (working on fencing our large yard) and three dogs of my own. We have room to crate train if needed, and keep kids and dogs separate should your pup not be kid friendly.

“Jenny is calm and gentle with my senior dog, Oliver. She is organized, flexible, and responsible, with an eye to details. I feel Oliver is well cared for- even with his various/changing health issues. Jenny is a great asset to our daily routine!”

“Amber was always punctual and very communicative. She was flexible with times when we needed to adjust Ravi’s walk. Ravi always seemed happy when returning from a walk with her. We will definitely be calling Amber again when we need a dog walker. Highly recommended.”

“This is the second time that we’ve had Jules care for our two dogs while we’ve been away. Unlike other sitters we’ve used in the past, Jules has gone over and above each time she’s cared for our pets (taking our pets on more walks and runs than Rover required). She’s incredibly responsible, courteous and professional. Our #1 option for sitters.”

“Danny was a home run pick for our very high energy rescue dog. He communicated every step of the way leading up to the first visit and took our boy on his very first three mile run. Best decision ever. You can tell how much he loves animals and they respond in kind. Looking forward to the next visit.”

About: I am a loving, kind person. If I could I would save the entire pet kingdom. Some people say I am a dog whisperer. I’ve been taking care of my furry friends since I was a little girl. Your pet will be treated as if it was mine. I will make sure to provide the best care and protect your baby the best possible way. I am a proud owner of a Mini Aussie - Koda and a Black Cat - Joe. Few years ago I said goodbye to my best trio ever. They were all senior doggies. First I’ve lost Koko (17 years old Maltipoo), second heartbreak was 13 years old Pitbull - Woofy, third 15 years old Chihuahua - Choochoo ! All were the most important furry babies ever!

I have a fenced large backyard. I have a cat and a dog. They are both extremely friendly. If needed they can be separated from a pet I do take care of.
“Jessica is great with my dogs. They are both seniors and one with significant health and weight issues. He is doing so much better since she started taking him on walks and giving him great care. He wags his tail whenever she shows up. I highly recommend Jessica.”

Grosse Pointe Woods dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah was amazing!! I never had to worry about anything. She never was late always showed up on time,communicated with me every day. She would me pictures of Rocky and made little notes of the day Rocky absolutely adores her. And when the weather was way to cold to go for a walk , she would just stay with him. Let him out to pee a couple times play with him give him some love. Having Sarah taking care of Rocky while I was gone, gave me the peace of mind that I needed to know that he was well taken care of. Thanks, Sara you’re the best❤️
