Pet Sitting in Gwinn

About: Hello my name is Abby! I’m a caring, reliable pet sitter who truly enjoys spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family for several years, and I’m now looking to expand and help more pet parents by offering the same level of care and attention through Rover. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including handling multiple pets at once. Whether it’s walks, feeding routines, playtime, or just spending time keeping them company, I make sure each pet gets the care they’re used to along with plenty of love and attention. I pay close attention to details and follow instructions carefully, especially when it comes to routines, special needs, or anything that helps your pet feel more comfortable. My goal is to make things easy for you and stress-free for your pet while you’re away. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and I take pride in being someone both pets and owners can trust and feel comfortable with. I work full-time Monday–Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM, and I’m available for pet care after work on weekdays and all day on weekends. Whether it’s an evening walk, dinner and playtime, or overnight care, I’m happy to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for while you’re away. Weekends are perfect for longer visits, extra play, and plenty of cuddle time I care for pets in a very hands-on, attentive way and always try to make them feel safe and comfortable, especially while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and reassurance. If pets stay in my home, I create a peaceful environment where they can settle in and feel relaxed. I stay observant of their needs and personalities, whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra comfort.

“Shannon has been such a wonderful dog walker and caregiver. I could not recommend her more highly!! Any pet would be lucky to have Shannon caring for them!”

“Olivia was fantastic. She definitely deserves a five star review. She showed up when she was supposed to and stayed for the agreed amount of time. She took wonderful pictures of Otis. She used features that I didn’t know existed with Rover. She’s is on top of her game and I would definitely use her again.”

“We have used Rover before, but no one has ever come close to the service she provided. She went above and beyond, traveling more than 45 minutes to accommodate our needs. She arrived early and stayed late with our bulldog, giving us complete peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and we could tell she genuinely cared. Highly recommend!!”

“Emily was great! Everything worked out perfectly!”

About: Hello! My name is Izzy and I love animals of all shapes and sizes! Three years ago I adopted my dog Cedar from a shelter in Wisconsin. He has taught me so much about love, patience, and acceptance. As a reactive dog owner I understand how scary it can be to have other people care for your animal. I always use positive reinforcement techniques and have experience with training. I love animals of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and abilities. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I own a small business so my schedule is usually very flexible. I am available almost every day after noon. I tend to stay up late, so I can be available in the evenings if needed. I'll treat your dog like I treat my own! I use positive reinforcement. I am very gentle and patient. I love teaching dogs different tricks, or if playing fetch is more their speed that's fine too!

“Dylan was an outstanding pet sitter for my dog Tilly. She was attentive to detail, and prioritizes the health, comfort, and happiness of your pet. She is excellent regarding communication as well with quick messaging and giving daily check ins. This was my first time using Rover, and I booked Dylan for drop in visits. I would absolutely book her again! - Tilly stamp of approval”

About: My pets are my family. I currently own two horses three dogs and board a horse that gets treated like my own. I’ve had dogs, my whole life and horses since I was 12. I live on 40 acres a feel my pets are living their best life. They are treated like family and always make my days better. If you were to trust me with your pets, they would be treated like family as well. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend. Happy Tails. I am currently working 4 days a week but want to retire from dental hygiene. I looking to see what kind of interest there is for this service in my area. I have a fenced in area connected to a heated garage if I were watch your pet at my home. How they re-acted to my dogs would determine if they stayed in my home.

“Kendra is a wonderful petsitter. She was quick to initially respond to my request and she scheduled a meet and greet quickly to see if our job was a good fit. First impressions was that Kendra was kind and professional. She was reported her daily check-in and was patient with my kitty who was timid and hid from her until the last day. I'm thrilled to have found Kendra and will be reaching out for future trips.”

“Alexa is wonderful! Honestly, she's one of the best pet sitter we've ever had. She came to our house to watch our 2 cats/ dear kitty friends, and she truly seemed to understand their needs and ours! She always did MORE than required, including regular communication, photos, and details that she'd only know if she was really spending time with them. We came home to a tidy house and 2 happy, well-fed cats. And when we got home from a long, stressful drive, we found the sweetest note about our kitties and a gift of homemade pumpkin bread! And, Alexa is smart, personable and energetic. We left feeling good about the woman we were entrusting with these small animals who trust us. I never worried about a thing, which for me, is an amazing gift. I missed our cats, but I never worried about them. For me, THAT is the very best recommendation I can give a caregiver. We will certainly hope she is available for every future trip we make.”

About: I have worked with animals my entire life. I grew up fostering cats & dogs - from newborns who had to be bottle fed to seniors with medical needs. I have worked at an animal shelter for a period of time, so I have plenty of professional experience as well :) I recently relocated here to Marquette! At the moment, my schedule is pretty open so I am flexible with what hours you & your pet may need. I love getting outdoors so I do not mind walking or playing multiple times a day, whether if we are in my neighborhood or yours!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind over the last 22 years. Neighbors, friends and family have asked me to walk, feed, bath and take care of their pets. We make our own dog food to supplement our dogs feeding. I am retired and I can spend time training and taking care of your pet. We live in the country and on a big lake. We have four dogs that love friends too come over and play. They will teach them to play in the woods, swim in the lake, play fletch or just lay in the porch.

“Jessie did a great job looking after our cats while we were away! She was great about providing updates and was very prompt in all communication. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Jessie again in the future.”
