About: I’ve been a dog owner since childhood and currently have 3 that are my world. I’ve taken care of many neighbor’s and friend’s dogs for years and have been referred to many people for dog sitting, walking and even just making a visit for a potty break and some snuggles. Doing some work from home but have a very flexible schedule. I am available during the day and evenings for walking and/ or potty visits. I am very dependable and will treat your fur baby with the best care. Also very big on following any rules you may have for your dog. Ensure that I’ll care for your dog the exact same way I’d want someone to care for my pups 🐶
About: With 14 animals of my own and over 5 years of pet sitting experience, I truly understand every pet’s unique needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every animal like family. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or specialized care, your pet will feel right at home with me. What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on knowledge of animal behavior and genuine passion for giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I currently don’t work anywhere else which gives me plenty of time in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends to focus on pet care. Since animals are a huge part of my life already, caring for pets naturally fits into my daily routine. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend stays, or afternoon check-ins, I’m flexible and committed to making sure your pet feels loved and well-cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and routines. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or playtime—and keep things clean and calm. My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re still there, providing peace of mind for both of you.
“Tyler and Andrea took my 13 ½-year-old Lab for walks twice a day, morning and evening. Even though the agreement was for 30 minutes, they often walked an extra 10 minutes since my lab is very slow. They were always punctual, communicated clearly, and showed great patience. Walking Veera is not easy at his age, but they never complained and cared for him with kindness. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby while we were sick — it gave us such peace of mind.”

I am very willing to accommodate for your fur baby, to ensure the best experience possible. Being around animals makes me the happiest! I’m looking forward to raising the bar for pet care.

For these reasons, I am confident that I can meet your pet(s)’ schedule and needs! I have access to plenty of outdoor space. My home is large and cozy! I offer a safe, loving, spacious environment where your pet(s) can thrive.
About: Hi!😊 I’m a Rochester Hills pet caregiver with 12 years of hands-on experience (off & on Rover combined!) caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities and routines. Prior to finishing my degree at Oakland University and entering the corporate world, I was a full time nanny/pet sitter so caregiving is truly in my DNA and something I truly love and am passionate about! I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you genuinely trust, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, attentive and big on communication, so you can expect regular updates, photos and peace of mind while you’re away. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic walks and playtime to slower-paced senior care, feeding routines, medications and lots of companionship. I also understand that every pet is different. Some want constant attention and cuddles, while others need a little time and space to warm up. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and tailor their care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I offer dog walking, drop-ins and at your house sitting for cats & dogs, as well as 1:1 house sitting in my home for one small-medium dog (40lbs & under) with me doing both pickup and drop off. Please feel free to reach out with any additional questions- I look forward to connecting with you!🙂 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day for walks, drop-ins and overnight stays. I can tailor my availability around your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime and companionship. My goal is to make their day feel as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow the routines and instructions you provide as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, potty breaks and any household guidelines. I’m careful with doors, leashes and surroundings, and I pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite or energy. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet and home are being well cared for.

“Daisy is always flexible and so sweet. She is hilarious with her stories of their adventures on her Rover report. And the pictures she gets to go along with her stories are the best! She’s so good with Harley, especially since she’s a large Great Dane that can be a little reactive to her environment. But Daisy is so amazing and patient with her. They always have fun together!”

About: I’ve had a vast experience from helping foster cats to personal dog ownership and training. My calm, loving demeanor sets me apart from just a pet sitter. A flexible schedule is ideal, considering I am primary caregiver to my two children. Looking for a part time schedule during school hours. I value being responsible and reliable for you and your pet’s needs. I would love to establish our home as a safe boarding environment for your bestie. We have just under two acres- not fenced- of beautiful land for your best friend to run and play! Lots of space inside, with option of storing a crate, if needed. Our children will not be part of the boarding experience as they are not home on weekends. Our dog passed unexpectedly this year of cancer and it wrecked us. Although we cannot replace her, we would love to provide a happy place for your beloved pet to stay and be loved while you are away or need a break. 🩷
About: While growing up on a farm, I have always loved caring for dogs, cat, and horses with various needs. Friends and family have trusted me with their four legged companions of all sizes for many years. Whether your dog needs to burn some energy on a fun walk or your cat needs a friendly drop-in visit, I can't wait to meet them! 🐾 I currently have a very sweet Australian Shepherd, an extra fluffy cat, and four gentle horses and two donkeys - all with unique personalities and needs. I work remotely from home, so my schedule is relatively flexible. I'm more than happy to spend time with your pet, ensuring they receive proper care and attention. My backyard is fenced in, with plenty of room to play ball or practice agility. I respect other pet owner's space and home, as well as rules for handling or caring for their pets, ensuring I am both assertive and friendly.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since i was a baby. I used to treat not only my own but my friends as well as if they were my own child because they reciprocate the love. I am currently working part time from home because i am in school to get my forensic psychology degree and need some extra excitment around I have a spacious fenced yard and 2 dogs to keep your babies occupied. They both are small but get along with big dogs well.
About: I have over 5 years of professional pet care experience and as an emergency veterinary nurse. Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I have three dogs of my own and have been surrounded by animals my entire life, so I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. I currently work midnights only three days a week, so it is easy for me to make time to drop into your home when needed. When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to try to keep their routine and to make it as stress free as possible. I'll follow your instructions, if provided, for walks, play time, and any special routines they may have.

About: Hi! I’m Katie, and I’m a lifelong dog lover with plenty of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I currently have my own 10-month old yellow Lab, Moose, who keeps me active and has given me even more experience with training, playtime, walks, and all the fun (and chaos!) that comes with having a young dog. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for multiple dogs at once. I’ve also fostered two German Shepherds for several months until they found their forever homes, and later fostered two Pit Bull/Lab mixes through No Dogs Left Behind. I also regularly help care for my parents’ two Labs, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple dogs and making sure each one gets the attention they need. I’ve even participated in the Leader Dogs for the Blind 5K for several years to support their mission. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care. Depending on the service, I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, potty breaks, companionship, feeding, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll always do my best to keep their normal schedule and make them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love while you’re away! I work from home full time and work on Mountain Standard Time, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes mornings especially convenient for walks, drop ins, and spending time with pets. Since I work remote, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day while still maintaining a consistent work schedule. I’m available Monday through Friday and have more flexibility in the mornings and throughout the day. I also spend a lot of my free time with my own dog, Moose, so I’m very comfortable incorporating walks, playtime, and outdoor activities into my routine. On weekends, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, working out, hanging out with Moose, watching sports, and getting outside. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and needs to make sure they feel comfortable & cared for! I live in a spacious, gated apartment community in a quiet and pet friendly environment. While I don’t have a private yard, there are several walking trails nearby, as well as a dog park within my neighborhood, giving dogs plenty of opportunities for exercise, fresh air, and playtime. I’m very mindful of safety when caring for pets and always keep dogs leashed and supervised while outside unless they are in a designated, secure dog park. My apartment community has safety regulations in place, and because not every building is pet friendly, there is a comfortable number of dogs throughout the community without feeling overcrowded. My own dog, Moose, lives with me, so I’m experienced with maintaining a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for dogs in an apartment setting. I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine, house rules, feeding instructions, and any special care needs to help both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re in my care.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have four cats, two dogs, and two rabbits, so I’m used to taking care of multiple pets with different needs and personalities. One of my dogs is very old and has become blind and deaf, which has taught me a lot about patience, paying attention to details, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Caring for him has given me experience working with animals that need a little extra support and attention. I also volunteered at a horse rescue and rehabilitation facility for a year, where I helped with feeding, grooming, cleaning stalls, and caring for horses. Working with horses taught me how to safely handle large animals, stay calm under pressure, and understand animal behavior. It gave me a lot of confidence and responsibility that I still use when caring for pets today. Besides my own animals, I’ve helped care for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, basic medications, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention while their owners are away. I’m a 19-year-old college student currently on summer break and working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets because I feel the same way about my own. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. ❤️ As a college student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability outside of my part-time job. This allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet’s needs, whether that means drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to making sure pets receive consistent, quality care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, clean up after pets, ensure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and carefully follow any special instructions. I also treat each home with respect and keep pet owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

“Mason is absolutely fantastic with Cali. They adapt to her energy and spend the time with her walking, play or cuddling based on how Cali is feeling when Mason arrives. Mason also went above and beyond to do a meet and greet prior to beginning our pet sitting relationship. Really grateful for Mason’s attentiveness and generosity with Cali.”
