“Kara was amazing when I needed a last minute dog walker. She came everyday on time and communicated when she picked Moose up and dropped him off. She even wrote notes about the walk! I could not have found a better/sweeter friend for Moose that week! Thank you Kara!”


“Meera had a great walk with Alexa today! Alexa came to my rescue when, unexpectedly, I wasn’t going to be able to exercise Meera. With almost no notice on my part, she showed up on time, communicated promptly and clearly, and was lovely with my puppers. Meera is now having a much happier day because of Alexa!”

About: Hi I’m Katie! I am almost 19 and live in the Traverse City area. I graduated from Traverse City West. I also work part time. I’m attending NMC in the fall and hoping to become a surgical technician. I love all types of animals. I’ve taken care of puppies, senior dogs, cats, and this past summer worked on a goat farm! I personally own cats and have owned many dogs throughout my life. I would love to be your next booking! I’m currently working part time. I am not working a whole lot so even with me working part time I will be able to prioritize your requests and babies needs. I always make sure that I follow directions given, I’m also not afraid to ask questions. I am very vigilant and will treat your animal as if they were my own.

About: I’m more than a dog sitter 😁 if you want someone who will play, walk, and entertain your dog, you’ve found your match! I’m the dog mom who does everything with her dogs. I have 3of my own large breed dogs, and fostered 12 others with my husband and enjoyed every moment of it! Most of them were under the age of 1 year old, so we did all the potty training, crate training, and basic commands. I exposed them to different environments, other dogs, and taught them a lot during their time with us which was anywhere from a month to 4 months. I’m reliable and really intentional about the care of animals. I love my dogs as if they were my kids and I’d treat yours with the same care! I have a full time job, but can work from home some days. I dog sit because I love it and I know how important it is to find someone who will make my dogs feel safe and happy. I intend to do that for those I serve 😊🐶 Note: I generally do not accept requests for house sitting over 4 nights at a time. I love routine and know how animals can thrive in that even when their humans are gone. So I would be happy to keep consistency for your pet if that means being let out at certain times or walked before you get home etc. For doggy daycare: I have a fenced yard and 3 of my own fur babies who love to play with other dogs! I also have a separate gated area in my home if there needs to be separation at times. For House Sitting: (I won’t accept requests over 4 nights). I will follow the owners preferences and safety measures they have in place. I also recommend meet and greets so I understand how you expect things done/handled.

About: Currently offering walks and drop-ins for cats and pups! In the past I have always had a dog in the family and volunteered at local shelters. Now the owner of a seven-year-old german shepherd, Lyra, I am pretty seasoned with the ins-and-outs of caring for furry friends. I have been doing long walk ( mile - 2 mile walk ) challenges to keep her happy and whenever I stop in for a client, I make sure that I give your pup the same amount of attention as if they were my own. Rest assured your pup or cat will be pampered, snuggled, and get some playtime-in. You will receive photo updates (no need to respond) but I am very open during my visits so that you get a full rundown of their condition. I also fill out rover cards with details of activities and I am able to provide a quick pic on request. Please take some time to review the requirements for booking. I look forward to meeting your fur-friend and appreciate your business. My Rover schedule will reflect my availability, however, I may be able to accommodate your needs for an extended stay with communication. Our routine starts with breakfast between 7-10a. followed by a quick walk. We settle in for dinner sometime between 5-8p and usually go out one last time before bed. Pets are a priority in this household. I continue to work toward making sure that needs are met and your dog is comfortable throughout their stay. This includes creating space for smaller pets to lounge and request that all necessary care information is complete on their pet profile.

My experience administering medication I have administered medication twice before. If you use any special methods, if you show me how, I am more than willing to do it.

Amber W.
“Let me start with that: Amber is someone that I would trust my own dogs with, hands down. I start with that because I don't trust my dogs with just anyone! She is smart and sensible, responsible and most of all - one of the most loving dog moms I know. She has fostered so many dogs for our rescue and with each one of them - she has taken the time and patience to help those dogs become their best and to move on to amazing, loving forever homes. Some of her foster dogs have had some really difficult issues that she helped them work through - And many of the adopters bring them back to Amber for dog sitting when they have to be away because they know how amazing she is! I just cannot say enough great things about Amber. If you hire her for to care for your dogs, you will never regret it.”
