About: I have been caring for animals for the past year and an a half, but always had dogs and cats growing up. I’ve cared for a multitude of animals anywhere from dogs and cats all the way to snakes horses and chickens. I used to work at the local animal shelter and have experience administering oral medications in pill and syringe. I’m currently working part-time, typically in five hour shifts! When pet sitting I only have one errand to run besides work and that’s cleaning out a horses stall otherwise all my time is for your fur babies! I can take your fur babies for a walk or if you have a fenced in yard we can play fetch to help burn some energy on their potty breaks.
About: I have a very open availability and am looking mostly to help with getting the furry friend some exercise while people are busy. I will follow instructions given by pet parents to meet their pets needs. Contact me about help with your furry friend! I'm open to all breeds. I'm pretty open. Let me know when you need a drop in or walk done. Last minute or planned. I will try to be there for your furry friend. I would give them a good play and a lot of attention, check and fill their food/water/litter or for a dog let them outside to do their business. Also I like to visually inspect around the house for any issues.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for 8+ years, and I truly love working with pets of all shapes and sizes. I have hands on experience with everything from house pets to full farm life. At home, I have a dog, a cat, and a bearded dragon, so I’m comfortable with a wide variety of species and personalities. I currently work part-time at a local small-business pet store, which gives me extra knowledge of pet products, nutrition, and enrichment options. I’m experienced with medication administration, special care needs, and building trust with shy or anxious animals. Whether your pet wants cuddles, playtime, or just a calm companion, I’m here to make them feel safe and loved. I can’t wait to meet your pets and become their new favorite friend! 🐶🐱🦎💛 Pet care fits great into my schedule because I currently work part-time at a small-business pet store and I’m still building my clientele as an esthetician at the salon. This gives me a lot of flexibility, especially on days when I don’t have many bookings, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. Whether your pet needs strictly timed meals, specific walking routines, slow introductions, medications, or just extra snuggles, I make it my priority to keep them feeling at home while you’re away. I maintain clear communication, send photo updates, and double-check instructions so everything is done your way. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, understood, and cared for just like my own.
About: Growing up my family had a small rescue that I helped run, now being grown myself I want to help people and pets out anyway I can! Whether it’s a potty break, walk around the block or a nice hike and some treats! I’m currently working Monday- Friday. I am available the whole day so if you’re looking for someone who’s around all day I’m you’re person! I’m also available after 5pm the days I do work! I am not currently doing in home services due to having two dogs myself in a small home but I am very cautious when it comes to safety and trust. I always make sure doors are shut, fences are locked, collars are on and secured (harnesses too). And I’m always on the lookout for pets getting into stuff they’re not supposed to.

About: Hello! I’ve had dogs my whole life, and recently i’ve been working to help train my dogs to duck hunt from when they were puppies! I can administer oral medication, pill form or liquid I work full time, starting at 7 am, but i’m out early enough to spend plenty of time with your furry friends! i’m out at 3:30pm on weekdays and have weekends off! i’m available everyday:) I can crate if needed, at home my dogs have a perimeter fence so they don’t run off! they are crate trained as well. i give them their medications everyday
About: What sets me apart is my extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs over the past seven years. I have experience with everything from puppies needing structure and training, to senior dogs who require extra physical support and patience. I’m very comfortable with daily walking, establishing good leash manners, and maintaining routines that help dogs feel secure and well-behaved. I’ve also cared for pets who require medications and special attention, and I’m confident adapting to each animal’s unique personality and needs. Several clients have consistently given me positive feedback about the level of care, attention, and trust I provide, which is something I take a lot of pride in. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I currently work in a school district in a full-time role, along with a part-time job that has flexible hours. During the school year, I typically have more availability on weekends and can provide care around my work schedule. I also have one week off approximately every six weeks, which allows for additional flexibility and availability during those times. In the summer, my hours become more flexible as I work fewer hours overall, which gives me even more availability throughout the week. Because of this, I’m able to consistently provide reliable care, including walks, check-ins, and in-home pet sitting depending on the client’s needs. I’m committed to making sure each pet receives attentive, dependable care that fits smoothly into both my schedule and the owner’s needs. I provide pet care in the client’s home, where I stay with the pets to keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow their normal routines closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions to ensure consistency and reduce stress while their owners are away. I do not have a fenced yard, so all care and exercise is provided through structured walks and supervised outdoor time. I am very attentive during walks and prioritize safety at all times. I am also comfortable caring for pets in my own home if needed, as I rent a pet-friendly space that allows animals. My focus is always on making sure each pet feels safe, cared for, and well looked after in whichever setting I’m providing care.
About: Hi! My family had dogs growing up so I've helped care for all ages from puppies to seniors. My dog, Rhett, is a 2 year old mutt I found while at school in Tennessee. He is the sweetest boy and loves to play. He gets along with everyone and has never met a dog he didn't like. He plays well with all sizes and has friends ranging from a 5lb teacup yorkie to a 170lb great dane! Your dog will get lots of love and play time during their stay with me. I try to do little bit of training with my dog most days, even if it's only a few minutes. He's learned so many tricks and I would be more than happy to try to teach your dog something new as well! Rhett's fun party trick is that he can "search" for a scent canister hidden in a cabinet in another room and lay down in front of it once he finds it. I work in healthcare so I don't have a typical Monday-Friday schedule. I will try to keep the calendar as updated as possible! On my days off, I like to take my dog hiking, to the beach, or to other dog friendly places. Depending on what errands I need to run, Rhett likes to join for the ride, he's my little adventure buddy. Fully fenced yard so they can enjoy lots of play time when the weather is nice. I board/ do daycare for one pet at a time and will do my best to make your pet feel at home! I treat each pet like one of my own. I would love to set up a meet and greet to make sure everyone gets along!

“Tyler was nothing short of amazing. From the moment she arrived at our Meet n Greet, she made me feel comfortable. She showered all the of my pups with affection, and followed their routines to the letter. Best of all were the lovely photos she sent each visit. We will absolutely be using Tyler's services again!”

I will make sure your animal gets what is needed and watch them just like they are my own. They will be played with and let outside and fed! And tons of love
Muskegon dog parents share their Rover experiences
Isabella was awesome! We live 2 minutes away from her so she came out in advance to meet us, our dog and go over our routine (our pup is new to us, we adopted her 3 weeks ago!) for when she has to check in our pup. She clearly had fun with Lizzy, took lots of photos and was great at communicating! We will def rebook with her!

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Emily took amazing care of our two dogs and kept us updated with photos and messages the whole time, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s such a relief to find someone so reliable, kind, and great with animals. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
