“Kelsey took such good care of my cat while we were away! She was able to get our shy little cat to come out of her shell and live her best life! I’ll definitely be looking for Kelsey again if I need to re-book.”
“Elise was great and did everything she said she was going to do and what we talked about with her beforehand. She checked in and stayed with our Lana which at first I thought would be overkill but it was nice to know she was there to hang out a bit with her while we were away. She took her for walks and even spent extra time watering our outdoor plants. I’d recommend her and we will reach out to her again next time we need Lana looked after.”
“Suzanne and her family did an excellent job taking care of my two kitties! I loved getting the photo updates every day and the creative ways she got them to play. As an added bonus she tended to my plants for me. My vacation was worry free thanks to Suzanne, and I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Alyssa did a great job with my shy cats. She kept in touch and sent pictures. If the job had been longer she would have won them over completely. I will definitely call on her again.”

About: Previous to moving back to MI, I was a dog foster with Dallas Animal Shelter. I also have my own two rescues. I have experience with a wide array of dogs including small chihuahuas to big ole mastiffs ! I love dogs! Each dog I fostered had medical needs and I am a nurse so I promise to care for your pups in the best possible way! So excited to meet you and your pup ! I am a nurse with a rotating schedule, which is great because I can revolve my schedule around your needs (with appropriate notice). I am happy to set up a weekly routine if that is what best fits your needs. I am happy to spend time with your doggy in their fenced yard, walks, and crate them as preferred. However, I do love dog cuddles, so they may be a little late to be crated!!
“As soon as I reached out to Sheena, she was quick to respond. I liked that she met with my dog and I ahead of time. She dropped in as promised. I appreciated hearing from her afterwards (via text, card and rover follow-up.”

“Megan was awesome! She did a last minute drop in for me without being able to meet my not even four month old puppy! She handled it like a pro and Chico seemed was happy when I returned. Thank you so much again!”
About: Hello! It's tough leaving your pets alone and finding reliable people to care for them. As a longtime pet-owner myself, I've wrestled with this same issue; especially with one of my former pups who couldn't be crated or boarded due to extreme anxiety! I am a mature working professional who loves animals and will be attentive to their needs. My experience is with dogs and cats, however, I have also taken care of ducks, chickens, parrots, and geese! I am comfortable and responsible with giving medications, and caring for pets of all ages. I believe in great communication, exceeding client needs, and providing attentive and loving care to your pets. Because, they aren't just pets....they are family! I am new to Rover.com, and looking forward to meeting you and your pets. I currently work full-time, and am available most evenings for drop-in visits. I am also available to do weekend boarding in my home (dogs only), or yours (dogs and cats). Boarding at my home (dogs only), I have a large fenced yard, and will also walk your pup as needed. My home is their home! With your input, I will make your pet as comfortable as possible! I will send you updates and photos. Care in your home (dogs and cats) will follow your rules. I will send you updates and photos. While I do not have specific experience with special-needs dogs, I am happy to support pets with these needs. I'll work with you to be well-informed and comfortable with this level of support.
“Absolutely wonderful she was very patient with my dog and was even willing to go at my dog's pace instead of rushing into things.”
“Mia loved Katie! She was super flexible with what worked best for her while we were gone for the week. Lots of play time and attention spent. We will definitely work with her again!”
“Nica did an outstanding job watching my dog Allie. I didn't even worry about leaving Allie as I knew she was in good hands, I will definitely ask Nica again to watch Allie the next time I need to leave for a couple days :)”

Linda C.
“I've known Linda for over a decade now, and have seen her in action as a loving, responsible pet owner herself. Recently, I ran into a schedule challenge and asked if she could come feed my dog, let her outside, and play with her for a bit -- maybe 30 minutes total. She did exactly, that, and sent me some fun video of my girl zooming while enjoying her play time. My dog is happy to see her, which I know means she trusts her, and I do, too. I definitely will have her visit again, and will consider boarding my dog with her if I need to be gone for a few days. I know she will be well cared for by Linda!”
