Pet Sitting in Manitou Beach

About: I have experience caring for shelter dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I am also a cat owner myself. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident and at ease when welcoming a sitter into their home. I have a full time job 8-4:30 most days off the week and would be available in the evenings and would be open two days a week for care anytime of day. These open days o shift through the year. At this time, I will not be offering pet sitting in my own home. While caring for your pet in your home, I will closely supervise them at all times—especially during outdoor play—and will carefully follow any instructions you provide.

“Anne B was amazing with our dog and we appreciated the trip and walk reporting. Our dog was very comfortable with Anne. Would highly recommend booking Anne B if you have need of a dependable pet caretaker.”

About: Experienced pet parent of three dogs and one cat offering reliable, loving care for your furry family members. Book now for a happy, healthy stay! Pet care fits into my daily routine through scheduled feeding times, regular walks, playtime, and consistent monitoring for health and behavior changes. Weekly, I incorporate more in-depth activities like grooming, training sessions, and vet visits as needed. In my home, I ensure pets have a safe, clean environment with plenty of toys, regular exercise, and a balanced diet. In a client's home, I follow their specific instructions closely, maintaining their pet's routine, administering medications if needed, and providing lots of love and attention.

About: I’ve taken care of nine animals in one house before. I’ve taken care of senior dogs and young puppies. I also have taken care of Snakes, Sugar gliders, Chinchillas and more. I have an open schedule. I will most likely accept requests if i’m available that day. I’d love to watch animals everyday if I could. I stay at the clients home if they are comfortable with me doing so. I spend all day caring and spending time with your pets.

“Allison was very helpful in taking care of our two senior cats. Normally when we’re gone they’re very stressed out but we came home to two very relaxed kitties. Thanks Allison!”

“Natasha was wonderful! She was very thorough and communicative, and we never had to worry about our cats while we were away because she was so on top of everything. She spent plenty of time with them on each visit, and also kept us updated with lots of photos. Our cats are senior citizens and need medications, so they're not the easiest to take care of, but Natasha handled everything incredibly well. We would happily have her watch our cats again.”

About: I will love and care for your furry friends as I do my own. I've owned dogs my whole life and my family would say it's a passion I've never fulfilled (but will be thanks to rover!) I've owned all size breeds so teacup or a small horse, I've got you covered! I am a Navy Veteran and current full-time student at the University of Michigan and my husband works from home 100% of the time. Your pups will never be left unsupervised. We have two other dogs in the home who love having guests and making new friends. Feedings can take place whenever you deem necessary for you! We have a ton of treats (SCHNACKS) ready to spoil and pamper your puppers as we do our own. I live on 7 acres of land in a private community, and have approximately 1 acre of fenced in yard directly off the back of the house. Your friends will be able to take plenty of potty breaks and nice tranquil walks in the "countryside". They will be kenneled at night (around 11p.m.) in a dark, empty room in a padded kennel. (I know it sounds depressing but is actually super relaxing for doggos!). Doggie bath services are also negotiable.

About: I got my first puppy when I was 7 years old- it taught me responsibility, care, and love for all animals. Knowing how much I loved this cute pup, I expanded my scope of what loving animals means to me. I adopted 2 cats 6 years later, and was in a 4-h club for 7 years and raised over 30 rabbits, along with tending to all the other animals at the fairgrounds. I had 3 cute little hamsters as pets when I was in high school as well. I have also had the pleasure of taking care of other peoples dogs, cats, birds, and many other animals, which I enjoy an immense amount. I am flexible in my schedule and can accommodate to anyones needs. I have a car to get to where I need to go, so I don’t have many things holding me back from giving your pet the care it needs. I have always been very respectful and caring for my animals, and I believe they deserve the utmost care. I care that the pets know my smell and my voice and trust me completely- I do not want any animal to feel as if there is a stranger in their home that they need to be wary of. I will do my very best to provide the most comforting experience for them.

About: I’ve taken care of more dogs than I can remember. When I was born we had puppies even. We’ve had mostly medium sized dogs but a few large here and there. I work 2 jobs part time but my Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays are open right now. So it would be quite easy to just pop in real quick on those days and check on clients animals. Pets in my home will either be in a kennel indoor or outdoor depending on the weather. I have a few dogs and cats. They have a huge yard to run in.

About: Hi there, I’m Brittany. Animals make me happy. When I see a pet, I see a child. They are a member of the family. They have the sweetest souls and biggest hearts and I wouldn’t treat them any other way. I have one dog and I was raised with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. Every day I take my dog on at least one walk and many times I walk him multiple times per day. I treat my fur babies like family and how I would want to be treated. I am not only here to help you during your busy schedule but to become a friend to you and your fur baby. To house sit during longer durations, I can travel to anywhere. I would need to bring my golden retriever with me if your pets like to socialize and make new friends, he loves other dogs and gets along with them great, he is very social and has been to many dog parks and households with pets, if not I may be able to find someone to take care of him for me during that time. For drop in visits, I can assist on my own or bring my dog for some company. I am also available on certain days for doggy day care and boarding. When I have a dog stay with me I treat that dog like my own and it would have an amazing friend to play with. Pets are allowed on furniture, I have treats, toys, tons of dog beds, and a fenced in yard. I will also take your dog out on walks and play fetch or tug to burn energy. If you choose to book me, thank you for trusting me and I won’t disappoint you! My schedule is very flexible, and I would love to help accommodate what you need help with, whether that is daily or weekly. I am always picking up new work bookings. I have booked a lot off of rover so I have additional referrals if you would like them! I will treat your animals and home as if it were my own, with love, trust, and respect. I have helped out for many years taking care of people's pets and homes. I have many references.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, including large breeds like German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, Labs, and Belgian Malinois, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. For the past 4 years, I’ve been dog sitting and have experience caring for puppies as well as older dogs with different routines and needs. I have references from previous clients who can speak to my reliability and how well I care for their pets. I also have a college degree and bring a strong sense of responsibility and trust to every job. I love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, taking them on trails, playing, or just relaxing at home. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I also love cats and am happy to care for them too, though most of my experience is with dogs! Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine. I’m currently in a gap year before graduate school, so I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my time volunteering with research labs or being at home. This allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, and stick closely to their routines. I’m used to structuring my day around pets, whether that’s morning and evening walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or just being present with them throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my routine, so it never feels like a task, it’s something I look forward to. Because of my flexibility, I’m also able to adjust to different pets’ needs, whether that’s higher, energy dogs that need more activity or more relaxed pets that just want companionship. I care for every pet like they’re my own. I always make sure they have fresh water, are fed on their normal schedule, and stick to their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. For dogs, I provide at least two walks a day along with plenty of outdoor time, play, and attention based on their energy level. I love going on walks or trails, but I’m just as happy hanging out at home with them and giving them lots of love and companionship. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of your space and make sure everything stays clean and organized. I follow all care instructions closely and keep you updated so you feel at ease while you’re away. If pets are in my home, they’ll be in a safe, calm environment with lots of supervision and attention. My goal is always the same, to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved the entire time you’re gone.

About: I’ve worked professionally as a horse trainer, wildlife rehabilitator, zookeeper, animal cruelty investigator and farm animal sanctuary manager. As of 2026 I now offer sitting and boarding for dogs and cats in my home or yours. In my home, your dog or cat would have the space exclusively to themselves as there are no other animals or kids in the house. I can also service horse farms including feeding, cleaning and overnight stays. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else, and I don't take that lightly. I guarantee that your animals will feel safe and comfortable with me, and you'll rest easy knowing they're in experienced hands. I look forward to working with you! I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, outdoor time in my fenced yard, and companionship without long absences. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable experience based on each pet’s personality and needs. In my home, dogs have a peaceful environment and access to my fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Because I work mostly from home and don’t have other animals right now, I’m able to give them consistent attention, companionship, and a relaxed setting. For cats, I have a private bedroom available for those who may feel uneasy at first or need their own space. The room includes a cat tower, cozy cubbies, and a full bed with soft blankets arranged into comfortable nesting spots. This gives them a quiet place to decompress and adjust at their own pace, while still receiving attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal feeding, exercise, and care routine so things feel familiar and low stress. I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, and I’m attentive to details like energy level, mood, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is comfortable and doing well.

About: I have years of personal experience with numerous breeds of dogs that I have owned. Your fur family member will be in great hands! I also have sat many breeds large and same and have many references. My home is a nice quiet place for senior dogs and dogs with anxiety. I don't have any of my own personal pets and there aren't any small children. I only dog sit for one family at a time so your pet can get his or her own individual care. I also allow pets on furniture and in my bed at night. Each pet gets walked daily along with alot of play time to get rid of all the pent up energy. Lots of love and cuddles also!

“Mariana and Denys are great! A++ as always, loving, devoted and take care of our pup and kitten while were away. (psss. they send lots of pictures for piece of mind)”

About: I've taken care of many types of animals. From farm animals to family dogs since I was eight years old. I absolutely love it, and enjoy being outside with nature. Going for walks and playing, as well as typical pet owner chores. I am currently a college student & looking to work full time for the summer. I am extremely flexible throughout the week, and look forward to meeting you & your beloved pet! I currently have a painted turtle. As well as working for two families that have dogs, chickens, bunnies etc. I love every minute of it.

About: I have fed and walked a Labrador retriever, Belgian shepherd, pomchi, beagle and two domestic American shorthairs. If you want to walk your cat, I am your guy! My availability would consist of it being 4pm to 10pm throughout the day; I can check on your fur baby or babies during those times. In my day to day life, I can cut my dog and cat’s nails. I can crate your cat or dog if it is necessary.
