“Jenny was wonderful with our 14 yr old dachshund, Charlie. She sent pics and updates every day, and it was evident our little guy was well taken care of and content in her home. I would definitely rebook with her again in the future!”
“Thank you for looking after Maizy, twice! I appreciate the communication and photos sent, I know she had a very good stay with your family :) I’d be very happy to book with you all again!!”
“We were SO pleased with how Erin and Brian took care of Willow! Even with little quirks that Willow had, they were willing to adjust to make her comfortable. We would highly recommend them to watch your fur babies.”
“It was Renley's first time away from us. He was one tired boy when we got home. I think he was well cared for and overall had a good experience. Hopefully, as he gets older he wont be as shy and come out of his shell a bit more. Derek was reassuring and that helps a bunch. We will definitely use him again. Thank you again Derek, for taking care of Renley. Much appreciated!!”
“Breslin had a wonderful time with Christina and Micheal! They provided consistent updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos of our little guy having fun. They treated Breslin like one of their own and we truly appreciate that. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter! Thanks again!”
“OUTSTANDING!!!! We were so happy knowing that our dog was so well cared for. Michelle provided daily pictures and videos which made us so very happy knowing he was in good hands. He got more than enough exercise every day and just had a blast being there. We were afraid he wouldn't want to come home. Should we travel again we know where we want him to be and will definitely recommend Michelle to anyone we know who needs dog sitting services. We are just so very pleased and happy!!!!”
“Emily and family are the best! Dogs always enjoy their stay whether just a day or an extended stay. Emily communicates well - we enjoy receiving updates & photos throughout their visit. Highly recommend!”
“Highly Recommended! Melanie went above and beyond to make our toy poodle welcomed and comfortable when we boarded him for our trip! I appreciated the daily updates, pictures and even a fun video. Melanie is prompt, reliable and trustworthy!! She treats your dog like her own. When we came back from our trip, Tucker was happy and relaxed. Thank you again for everything!! Sheryl P.”
“Rizz was a family member for a short while. She felt the love and came home satisfied. Kristopher and Lisa and Andrew were welcoming, and gave Rizz just what she needed. When I need a place for her in the future when I'm away, I will be assured that this is the right place for her. Thank you!”
“A family member had to cancel plans to watch our dog a couple days before we went on vacation. Jenn was very responsive and was able to have us over the evening before for a meet and greet. It was immediately obvious that Jenn loves dogs and that Arby would be in good hands. We received photos each day and were able to enjoy a worry-free weekend . Thanks again!”
“Chad is always so pleasant and takes great care of my quirky dog Murphy. He sends plenty of updates and debriefs me on how the stay went. Murphy always comes home tuckered out after a weekend of fun. I highly recommend booking with Chad!”
“Sherri was the sweetest, and I can’t recommend her enough! She made the meet and greet, booking, and drop off/pick up process seamless. She also seems to have a deep love and respect for animals, which I appreciate so much! When I was away, she provided plenty of updates, and her family seemed to dote on Murphy. Murph went on many walks, played outside, and got lots of pets. I hope to book with Sherri again in the future!”
“Kiana was amazing She make sure she sent lot of updates along with pictures! Kiana understood how hard is was for me to leave my baby for the first time and keep me at ease! She is definitely part of the family now! Anytime I have to travel I know he'll be okay with his now "Auntie" ...lol”
“Averi took great care of my Remy boy! She is a kind and thoughtful sitter and very easy to communicate with. She sent pictures during Remy’s stay at her home and assured me he was happy and well taken care of. Prior to Remy’s overnight stay, we met up for a meet and greet. Averi listened to my explanations of Remy’s needs and had no issues understanding and managing his anxiety and reactivity. She made me feel at ease. We will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Lulu vacationed with Tatyana for a week while we vacationed in the sunshine. It was her first time away from home. Tatyana took the time to acclimate us to her home and her pup the week before we left. Lulu enjoyed being with Tatyana's puppy and from the pictures we received every day, she had a great time with her new puppy pal and other family members as well. Daily texts, pics and short videos assured us that Lulu was in good hands- So glad we found an alternative to a boarding kennel.”
“Karin Sue and Danny were wonderful to my Rosie! They had toys, a huge backyard and spent a lot of time with her. This was her first time being boarded and I would go back in a heartbeat! Thank you for being such wonderful caretakers!”
“Libby and her family were FANTASTIC! Our little one had so much fun playing with her kids and she actually came back happy, tired and ready to nap! Libby was attentive to her needs, sent us daily updates with pictures, and over all we felt she was well taken care of. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire her services again! ☺️”
“Our experience with Sarah was great! This was our first time using Rover and Sarah was very accommodating. She invited us for a meet and greet before our pup’s stay, was very responsive and offered updates on how he was doing. She made us feel very comfortable and we knew our dog was in great hands.”
About: Hello! I am a 32 year old dog enthusiast! As an adult with Autism, connecting with Pets has been incredibly natural and rewarding! I have been a dog-parent for four years. I have also helped care for my wife’s senior childhood dog. My wife has 10+ years experience as a Client Care Representative in Veterinary Medicine. I have a passion for dog walking, dog obedience training and dog adventures (like hiking and paddle boarding). I have a flexible work schedule (WFH 3x/week) and would love to be the one you trust to care for your lovely pets! I am a rule follower, reliable and dedicated to the wellbeing and happiness of all animals. I work from home Monday, Thursday and Friday so I am available for drop in dog walks. I have availability on weekends as well. On Tuesday and Thursday, I am available in the morning and the evenings. I have job flexibility during the day, so I can make most times work depending on the day. I strictly adhere to your care standards — I can take your pets on walks, play with them outside, or however your pup likes to engage most! I can crate upon leaving, etc. My dog also has his own bedroom, with a toddler bed, which has been “baby-proofed”, if you prefer a controlled space bigger than a crate. I have a fenced in backyard, as well.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Kent City home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Kent City.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
