“I was so nervous to leave Faith with a stranger, but Ella was wonderful with her!! She came over for a meet and greet the day before. She was extremely patient and low-key, which is just what Faith needs. I was thrilled to receive video and picture updates throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Ella as a sitter for anyone looking in the Shelbyville area :)”

“Andrea was great with my cat. She saved the day when my flight was delayed by last minute dropping in to feed and play with Milo and put a meal delivery in the fridge.”

About: I love all dogs very much! I have always had a dog my entire life and I think I always will! I am a very active person so I will play and walk as long as your dog desires! I used to nanny quite often in 2019 and 2020 but things got busy when I got pregnant again so I’m ready to jump back in and take care of your pets! I am available Monday-Thursday 9am-11am and some afternoons sometimes and some Saturdays sporadically. I know how to cuddle, play, run, and love your babies as much as you do! They will be very well loved and taken care of as I have 2 dogs and one kitty of my own and I have 3 kids who love animals! I am a SAHM and pick up my kiddos at different times so I’m on the road a bit which is perfect so I can come and help out your fur babies! I always keep a very close eye on your furry friends and will make sure they are safe at all times! I love to give animals love and attention that they need!

About: I have grown up with multiple pets in the house at once and have 5+ years of sitting. I am very passionate about ensuring that animals are well taken care of and have a flexible schedule. I’m currently a graduate student at WMU, and spend most of my free time studying or hanging out with my cats! My schedule is very flexible, which means I have more time to spend with your fur babies :) I am able to walk, feed and play with your pet for as long as needed, as well as drop by for potty breaks as often as needed. I take into account the personality of every animal and tailor each experience to each different pet.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I’ve had dogs my whole life, have cats of my own, and have experience pet sitting for family and helping with cat rescue and fostering. My rescue experience has taught me that every pet is different. Some want all the attention, while others need a little time to trust you. I’m patient and let them get comfortable at their own pace. I know dogs need more than just being let outside. They need attention, potty breaks, walks, exercise, and playtime. Cats need care and attention too, even the ones who act like they don’t! I want your pets to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll stick to their routines, treat them like my own, and send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing. Need someone who will care for your pets like family? Send me a message! My schedule is flexible, which means more time for your pets and less worry for you! I’m available throughout the week, including weekends, for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting. Whether your pet needs an early potty break, a midday visit, or some extra love and attention, I’m happy to work around their routine. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I’d love to meet your furry family! Send me a message so we can chat about their needs and get your next visit on the calendar! I’d love to know you're pets feeding schedule, favorite activities, sleeping spots, and routines! I also appreciate knowing any little quirks that make your pets unique!

About: Hi, I’m Rory. I’m a local Realtor, stepdad to three great kids, and lifelong animal lover. I’ve been a dog dad since I was 25, starting with a Newfoundland and now sharing a home with Lola, our 7-year-old Golden Retriever, and Tilly, our 8-month-old Cavapoo. Dogs have always been part of our family, and I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, cared for, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m active, enjoy walks, and love giving dogs the playtime, exercise, and companionship they need. I also volunteer in the community coaching football and basketball, so being dependable, patient, and attentive comes naturally to me. As a Realtor, I know trust and communication matter. I’ll follow your dog’s routine, respect your home, and keep you updated so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, snuggling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I work from home, so your dog will have company throughout the day instead of being left alone for long stretches. We build in regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, meals, and plenty of attention while keeping as close as possible to their normal routine. Your dog will be cared for in a loving family environment with two friendly dogs and three kids who truly love animals. Our home has plenty of space to relax and play, along with a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor breaks. We make introductions slowly, supervise play, and can separate or crate dogs if needed. We will follow your feeding, medication, exercise, and house rules, while keeping you updated with photos and messages.

“So nice to meet you, Justin. We think that you and Dori will be a perfect fit!”

Jerome N.

“Had to do last minute planning and she came through! Thank you so much. You were great ❤️”

About: I understand your pet is important to you. I will treat your pet as my own, offering engagement, play time, enrichment activities and a peace of mind. I train my own dog for obedience competitions, and I know he is happy when his tail wags. I have learned how to read a dogs behavior and go out of my way to ensure they are living their best life. Each dog that books a service will receive a complimentary gift bag of treats! Someone is home all day. I work near my home, I have flexibility allowing me to come home when needed. Your pup will have a plenty of toys and puzzles to stay busy. I have a kennel area for potty (so it's not all over the yard). Dogs are let out on a long line (33ft) as we wait for our fence to be put up. We are very intentional about how we care for dogs and we have found, dogs don't mind the long line since they still get to run their tails off! There are young children who are excited about dogs who love meeting new dogs. The children in my home are familiar with my standards of pet care, and know what it means to respect a dog. I have 3 German Shepherd Dogs who are dog neutral. My youngest dog is being trained for competitive obedience, one who recently retired and one who retired 2 years ago and works as a therapy dog as well as demonstration dog. He helps many dogs overcome their obstacles to becoming the well mannered pet many families crave. He is a gentle giant, I've learned much from him. He is always happy to see another dog, and understands respectful greetings, he is mild mannered and loves to play when released to do so. I am a runner, so if you are interested in a daily run for your pet during their stay, please notify me of this. My life is built around caring for pets. This was done intentionally and I am grateful for the opportunity to have your dog in my care. I can easily crate your dogs if needed. They are care for as my own. Each dog will be sent home with a treat bag made from single ingredient treats that we make.

About: I have years of experience caring for animals, from dogs to cats & rabbits. Pet care is an area that I am thrilled to be now pursuing on a higher level. Animals have captured my heart for years, and this is something that will not change now or in the future. I am someone who pays attention to details and always has animal welfare at the forefront of my mind. I do not doubt that I am someone to be trusted with your animals. I look forward to potentially working with you! I am fortunate in that I have a fairly flexible routine currently. This allows for pet care jobs and responsibilities to be easier to take on. I am happy to watch your animals in your home if all checks out. What might it look like? I could stop by once or twice a day (‘depending) to make sure your pet(s) are well and everything is running smoothly. For example, I just wrapped up pet sitting for someone I know in the area & she gave me a spare key for her place. This is just what made sense & what she was comfortable with at the time. She left some realistic instructions for me & all went well. It was a win-win situation. You just need help with dog walking? I am happy to consider that as well!

About: I have always had dogs growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I've taken care of dogs ranging in all different sizes and breeds most my life. I have experience in dog care from volunteering at Harbor Humane Society's and animal shelters along with caretaking for dogs at home. I have experience in catering to old and newborn dogs aswell as dogs that require medications and "extra" help around the house. I’m currently only working 4 days a week(Monday- Thursday) which gives me plenty of time to care for animals over the weekend. I'm more than happy to be of service for your furry best friend! I care for pets as if they are my own and treated with the utmost respect and safety as if they were royalty. If they need any special treatment or needs I will gladly accommodate them. Examples would be crates, treats, medicine, routines, animal food, etc. Unfortunately rover takes 20% of all earnings, which is due to the price increase if you’ve booked with us before, thank you for your understanding.

“Pamela did a great job with Bella. They became fast friends and she treated Bella like on of her own. Was excellent with communication and updates during her visita. Would definitely recommend her.”

About: I have been a dog sitter for the past 3 years. My experience has been from small dogs like yorkies to even bigger dogs like like Newfoundlands. I have also have experience dog sitting dogs who have just undergone surgery, who are deaf, and have other medicinal conditions. It is very important to me, to give them extra care and have them in their preferred environment. I am more than happy to stay at a home, to make it the best possible environment for the dog(s). I am a part time worker, recently graduated from Ferris State University. I have moved to Grand Rapids full time. With my availability, I am able to offer dog sitting, walking, and check ins services. I will dog sit at your own home. I have been doing that for the past three years and I have learned that it’s a more comfortable environment for not only me but the dog(s). I always make sure to meet your dog beforehand, if possible and learn more about their schedule.
