“Cathy did a great job with our dogs. Very professional and through. They are pretty low maintenance pups but it is nice to know they were not alone while we were gone and well taken care of !”


“Good communication. When my flight was delayed, Jen was very helpful & accomodatingvwith staying with the dogs an extra couple hours. She sent me text with pics while I was gone.”


About: I had my sweet dog Tinkerbell for 18 years & I’m not quite ready for another pup for myself so I absolute love spending time with other wonderful peoples pets! I have 2 cats- Winifred & Luna so I am familiar with cat care. I am experienced with senior pet care. I also worked in a veterinary hospital for a couple of years so I am familiar with lots of different kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, rats & more! I also have some experience with health sensitive and geriatric pets. I can administer medications & am familiar with prescription diets. I work full time Monday through Friday but I do have an hour lunch break where I can stop by and let animals out and feed them if needed. When I am not at work, I am available to be at your home as much as you would like me there. I frequently stay in peoples homes with their pets. I am off work on weekends so I can dedicate the entire weekend to your furry babies. I do not usually watch animals in my own home, other than cats who are not outdoor cats & are experienced & good with other cats, since I have two of my own. I prefer to watch animals in their own home, as it lessens the stress for the animal (and my cats! haha)

About: I’ve been the primary caregiver for my family’s dogs (2–3 at a time) for over 8 years. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for multi-dog households in my community, earning excellent reviews from happy pet parents! I’m available Monday through Friday after 5 p.m., and I’m completely free and flexible on weekends to give your pets the love and care they deserve! I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of loving pets and snuggles to keep your furry friends happy and cared for!

About: I am a pet owner myself and have lived with pets my whole life. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and make sure each pet gets the attention, care, and love they need while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, giving extra playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and relaxed, I go the extra mile to keep pets happy and owners worry-free. I am a teacher, which allows me to have nearly wide open weekend availability year round. During the school year (September-mid June) I am able to do week night drop ins after 4:30pm. During the summer (mid June-August) I am able to do drops ins from 12pm on. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their usual routines as closely as possible to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or administering medications, I pay close attention to every detail provided by the owner. I also make sure to give each pet plenty of affection and attention, so they feel safe and cared for while their family is away.

“Would highly recommend Sophia! She was very accommodating for our dogs schedule and handled a stressful situation very professionally. She kept us informed of what was going on and sent pics of our pup while we were gone. Gave us peace of mind and would definitely have her dog sit again!”


About: Furry Friend Care experience includes caring for cat(s) needing regular injections (subcutaneous), special dietary needs, and walking multiple dogs (familiar with each other). Light grooming, as well! As a free agent with Home bases in both Munising and Marquette, I have flexibility! We all have things we care about and want to ensure are safe and cared for when we're not around. I will give care and consideration to your fur friends, their routines and safety! My house sitting, boat sitting, fur friend care, & companionship extend from Marquette to Munising, and Chocolay to Big Bay! Care to be in your home, unless special conditions are made. My current familiar is a gorgeous grey Nebelung cat, adopted as a kitten 5 years ago. She requires a special ZD diet and biweekly subcutaneous shots. I have experience attaching kitty nail caps, when she was younger, with coordinated guidance while we were sussing out an unknown skin condition that was causing her to scratch aggressively, continually opening wounds, not giving them a chance to heal. Her condition is now under control, and she no longer requires the nail caps. Prior cats I have cared for have ranged from 3 lbs to 28 lbs! Our family pooch is an English Springer Spaniel, a unique tri-color showcasing beautiful Sable color. We welcomed him to our home 6 years ago. He is our 2nd Springer in 21 years. They are such a loving, fun, and gentle breed. I have much experience in connecting with and walking rescue dogs as well, mixed breeds including Sharpei, Pit Bull, Rottie, Jack Russel, Corgie, Labradoodles, Spaniels, etc. Sanitation is the start of keeping our friends safe and healthy; exercise and fresh air are necessary as well to have a happy, healthy home life. I can provide these things for your loved furry friend(s) while you are traveling or working.

“Janelle stayed with our 3 dogs for a week and did a great job. Janelle was very responsive when we would reach out for updates, she sent updates and pics and took good care of our pups.”


“Bailey was great with our pup Sully! She sent regular updates w/ photos which was really nice since we were about 7hrs away. Sully looked like he was loving life with all of the walks, treats and snuggles. Definitely recommend Bailey!!”


“Maggie and Oakley instantly accepted Matt. Matt recognized large dog excitement and responsed with quiet control. He respected Maggie's senior needs. While Oakley just wanted to cuddle. Matt gathered information for their care, sent us pictures of each dog and adapted his service to our needs. We will hire Matt again for our dogs care”


“Holy smokes— there aren’t enough things I can say to properly describe how great Kira is!! She did a fantastic job staying with Pete and cat for a few days, went above and beyond with care, helped deal with some water in the basement after a storm, and was a real pleasure to work and communicate with! Thanks Kira, the animals can’t wait for your next stay!”


“Paige is terrific, she sent me pictures regularly with updates on how our dog was doing. This is our first time with her but have been using Rover.com for several years and each representative has been so attentive to our dog and cared for our house too.”

Sara T.
“Sara is hands down the best critter and home care provider we have ever hired! Her love for our animals is apparent in both the quality of care she provides and the updates she regularly shares with us while we are away. We get daily pet pics of our small old dog, our kitten, and our hamster from Sara every day we are gone. She’s always doing something fun with our pup, taking him outside to meander or bringing him for rides with her. He loves when she comes - I sometimes think he loves her more than he loves us! She also has proven ability to administer special care, as our dog has been on medication under her watch before and she easily gave him his meds and monitored his behavior for us. And the quality of care doesn’t stop there. Without fail, Sara leaves our home cleaner than it was when we left. We trust her with all of our most precious belongings (and of course, with our pets) - a trust that has been earned through several week+ long stays at our home. We feel so grateful to have Sara as part of our world. I truly can’t recommend her enough! Whether it’s a daily drop-in, a love and snuggles play date, or a long-term in-house stay, you will not regret choosing Sara to care for your critters.”


Ella S.
“Ella is amazing and our dogs absolutely love her. We had her watch our dogs for over a week and she was wonderful!! I would highly recommend her and will definitely request her again for future dog sitting. She is very responsible, kind and adores all fur babies.”


Katie M.Star Sitter

“Fantastic communication before and during her sitting. She knows dogs and brought her love to our two! Will definitely ask her to sit again and again!”


Anna K.Star Sitter
“Anna is my go to person anytime I need someone to care for my cats while I’m out of town. She always takes great care of my kitties, spends extra time playing with them, and sends lots of pictures and updates. Anna is the best and I highly recommend her to care for your pets!!!”


Justin S.

“Justin took care of my dog while I was away on vacation and everything went great! He was very accommodating to my dog’s needs. Would definitely recommend!”


Karina A.

“Karina was amazing with my pups!! I have a fun crew with a young rescue and an old little man and she did great with all three :) I would recommend her for anyone!!”

Myla P.

“Myla was great!!! She took care of my St Bernard and she was very clean and respectful of my property. I hope to have dog sit in the future.”


Kendra S.
“I have a reactive (due to trauma) pit bull who makes a terrible first impression to the point where people cross the street when we are walking. She is so scared of new situations and other dogs, she becomes highly reactive to the point where most people avoid her. She has separation anxiety and takes medication to help, but new people, dogs, and environments are just tough for this dog. I can't trust just anyone to care for her or walk her. Kendra's energy made an immediate positive impact on my dog and I would trust her with any dog or cat. She's compassionate, thoughtful, and detail oriented. You couldn't wish for a better pet care professional than Kendra. My only advice is get on her calendar now because it fills up quickly! Kendra has cared for pets her whole life and brings years of experience and knowledge. She's my number 1 go-to for my dog.”
