“Shannon is incredible! She is super patient with our pup, who needs an extra minute to greet people. She also is great at keeping him entertained with good play for his rambunctious personality and gives him lots of exercise. She's very flexible with our schedule, trustworthy in our home, and always goes the extra mile. Sometimes I think our pup likes her more than us! I cannot recommend her enough!”

12. Jasmine H.
About: I've been lucky enough to have been able to help my mom with her business raising and selling dogs. Meaning I've dealt with taking care of pregnant dogs, newborn puppies, sick dogs, and senior dogs. I've also taken care of many different kinds of animals from reptilian to aquatic. My current full time job assisted senior living. I don't have a set schedule, but instead shifts I can choose to pick up. Meaning with proper warning I can puzzle piece my day to make time for your sweet pet. No matter what your pet needs I'm sure I can accommodate them and give them the care they need. And I always have extra supplies if needed. (carrier, food, toys, collars, leashes, ect.)


13. Ashley & Hannah Z.
About: Hi there! This is our first time with a commercial app, usually we keep our sitting to a tight knit circle but we recently lost two of our favorite boys and are looking to add a couple of new families to work with! My name is Ashley and I was sure to add a photo with my partner Hannah so that you know she might pop in with me or visit the pets and I on a walk or join us for a picnic date! I currently work from home so as long as you have a strong, secure connection I can bring my work with me to spend more time with your pets! Please let me know about any special care your pet might need! I am certain that we will hit it off and be the best of friends!


14. Jamie F.

“1st time using Rover and glad we did. Jamie was reliable and a great communicator. She was able to quickly bond with our dog and provide the necessary exercise needed. Since we were traveling and in Charlevoix MI for our son's wedding, Jamie was able to quickly put us at ease by providing great care for our dog.”


15. Molly D.

“Molly did a great job looking after our dog. So glad we were able to make it happen on kinda short notice for Thanksgiving.”


16. Mack M.

“Mack is professional, prompt, reliable, and trustworthy. He kept our home neat, ran the dishwasher, and even put the bed linens and used towels in the laundry. Mack took Jameson on walks and sent daily updates, which is always comforting. It was great knowing that Jameson didn’t have to go stay somewhere else, but could stay in his own routine at home. I HIGHLY recommend Mack. I convey this to ALL my friends. Don’t ever worry or stress over planning a vacation. Just contact Mack!”


17. Cassie O.

“Cassie has a real heart for animals. She was very careful to follow directions and even gave them meds. Our house was clean when we got home. We recommend Cassie to care for your pets and home.”


18. Kimberly H.

About: Hello! My name is Kim and I have been an owner and lover of dogs as far back as my memory takes me 😊 As a dog owner myself, I understand that if you find yourself searching for a sitter on Rover, that you are contemplating leaving a beloved member of your family with a stranger. My dog means the world to me so, I know how hard this decision can be. That being said, it is my priority to earn your trust upfront with transparent communication during the booking process and to provide reassurance and comfort with frequent picture/text updates during your dog’s stay with me. For me, it is not just about keeping your dog alive until you return, it is also about earning your dog’s trust through affection and attention. I will treat them no differently than I treat my own dog. I pride myself on making my home your dog’s ‘home away from home’. This is NOT a kennel. Your dog will have full access to my entire dog-friendly home. I live right in town Traverse City on a quiet street (which turns out to be quite convenient for most of my clients who are visiting from out of town). I have a completely fenced-in backyard for your pup to wander about, as well as an overflowing toy bin and their pick of any couch, chair or bed that they want to claim during their stay! If you are a Traverse City resident, I also offer dog walking or drop-ins at your home if your dog does not do well in a social setting or just simply prefers the comfort of his or her own home. Please reach out for further details or if you are interested in this service, I am happy to provide a list of references. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about me, please do not hesitate to reach out. I am also happy to host "meet and greets" prior to booking so, if you live in the Grand Traverse area and would like to meet ahead of time, let me know and we can definitely work something out! It is important to me that your dog feels instant comfort after being dropped off. I will make sure that I ask the appropriate questions during the booking process so that I know how to best care for your fur baby and follow his or her routine. My backyard is completely fenced in and I have a friendly senior beagle named Millie who hasn't met a dog she doesn't like :) I have often been told by previous clients that I have the "perfect set up" as I'm conveniently located right in town with a sizeable backyard. Thank you for stopping by! :)
