“Jazzy had a good time again staying with her favorite sitter, Joni. She really enjoys swimming which is something she never would have had the opportunity to do if it wasn't for Joni. I didn't even know Jazzy could swim, but had a chance to see her today when we stopped to pick her up on our way home from are trip. Jazzy played so much she slept all the way home and for 2 hours after we arrived home. Thanks so much Joni for being so good to our Jazzy. We love you.”
“Our 2 year old Aussie, Sadie, LOVED her stay with Desirae and her family. Desirae was so welcoming and sweet to Sadie and sent tons of pictures and consistent daily updates of Sadie’s stay. Desirae even brought her home with a picture collage/report of her stay! We highly recommend Desirae for your pet sitter needs.”

“Jessica was outstanding! This was our first time leaving Cooper with her and she was very caring, sharing daily pictures and updates. It really gave us peace of mind knowing Cooper was being so well cared for!”
“If you are looking for someone to watch your dogs, do not look any further. Tristan is AMAZING! The best I’ve ever found to take care of my pups. I was nervous finding someone new because I have an anxious pitbull and a mini dachshund, he is great with all dogs. He treats your pets as if they were his own. He took my dog for lots of long walks, played with them and even went to pick up food for me when they ran out. He’s so great that I want to gatekeep my review so my pups will always have a spot on his schedule! Thank you Tristan for all that you do!”
“Victoria did an absolutely amazing job watching our young puppy. She sent the best updates that kept us reassured he was having a wonderful time. She clearly loves dogs and cares about taking great care of them, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. I already have another booking with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“Thank you Jolynn for taking my boy Dudly on short notice! This was the first time in his 12 years of life he has ever been cared for by a stranger. He seems to have done very well, and I thank you for that! If we need care again we will contact you for sure! Thank you so much! Wendy”
“Our dog had a great time. He looked comfortable the moment we dropped him off. We received lots of communication and pictures throughout. They clearly are very enthusiastic and caring for the pets they look after. Will definitely use them again.”
“We spent a week on vacation and left our Italian Greyhound with Beth and her two pups Annie and Lennox. She sent photos every day and kept us updated. Rush came home excited and happy. Highly recommended.”
“Lynda and her family watched our 16 week old puppy for a week. We didn't want to board our puppy at this age because we are in the midst of training and she was so impressionable, scared, naughty...all of the things that come with a puppy. We did a meet and greet and that gave us a lot of confidence. Our pup did great with Lynda and her family! It was a great experience to socialize our puppy, I can tell that they continued to work with her on basic manners training, and our pup seemed very happy. Lynda sent pictures and video every day which further gave us peace of mind that our pup was having a happy, healthy, and safe time. I would recommend Lynda to anyone - she takes special care to make sure your dog will be a good fit in her home and get along with her other dogs and cat. We will definitely chose Lynda and her family again the next time we need puppy care. Thanks!”
“Donielle is a phenomenal pet sitter! This was our first time leaving our dog, and we never worried for a minute. She has years of experience and took fantastic care of our pup. It felt like our dog was on her own vacation and having so much fun she didn't even miss us! I highly recommend Donielle for her professional and caring service.”
“Taylor and family are always such a blessing for us! I know I can always leave our fur baby with them and feel 100% confident that she is in great hands! Taylor provides continuous updates and pictures throughout our pet’s stay giving us constant peace of mind :)”
“Makayla is a fantastic sitter! She is an excellent communicator and I received multiple videos and pictures each day I was away. I know Annie is in good hands with her, I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“This was our first time using rover and boarding with Bailey and Michael. We are always nervous leaving our dog with someone new but immediately felt comfortable after meeting Bailey at drop off. My dog can be anxious with new people and her calm demeanor put him at ease. We received multiple updates and pictures throughout the weekend. We will definitely be using their services again!”

About: Dogs have been a significant part of my life, holding a special place in my heart. Growing up, my mother was involved in rescuing dogs, and we even took part in fostering. This experience exposed me to dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I've undergone basic dog training and share my life with a 3-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog named Millie. Prior to Millie, we had a beloved hound dog named Evie, who was a cherished companion for 15 years. My love for dogs spans every age, and I appreciate the unique needs and characteristics that come with each stage of their lives. I currently work from home full-time however, my schedule allows for flexibility through the week day where I can be available for walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and snuggles. I would be happy to come get your pup out for a long walk before you return home. I would be happy to take your pup to a park to walk or around your neighborhood. I have a dog harness for safe traveling. I could also bring your pet to my home to play with my dog for a playdate. We have a nice fenced-in backyard with plenty of room to run. Our dog is wonderful with other dogs as well- big and small.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their New Haven home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your New Haven.

Many sitters in MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
