About: Hi there! 🐾 I’m Hannah, a stay-at-home mom and Military spouse with two sweet kids (ages 4 and 7) and a deep love for animals. Growing up, I was the trusted pet sitter for family, friends, and neighbors, and that passion for caring for furry friends has only grown over the years. One experience that shaped me was caring for a senior dog who was blind and needed daily medications. Her family fully trusted me, and I was honored to be part of her care for several years. It taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of tailoring care to every pet’s unique needs. Recently, I went through the heartbreaking loss of my own dog, who was part of our family for 12 years. Saying goodbye to him was one of the hardest things I’ve ever faced, but caring for other dogs has been a healing way to honor his memory and continue sharing my love for animals. At home, your pet will be treated like family. While we don’t have a fenced yard, we’re lucky to have grassy areas right in front of our house and a beautiful park across the street—perfect for playtime and walks. My kids adore animals, and together we’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Every pet is unique, and their comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I’d love the chance to welcome your furry family member into our home and give them all the love and attention they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into our daily life as I'm a stay-at-home mom. We offer love, attention, and playtime, ensuring pets feel at home and well-cared for. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. In my home, I create a safe, cozy, and loving environment where your pet will feel like part of the family. I provide tailored care, including walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of affection to keep them content and comfortable. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll respect their space and routine to make them feel at ease. From giving medications to maintaining their feeding and potty schedule, I’ll treat your furry friend with the same love and care I’d give my own. You can count on consistent updates and photos for peace of mind while you're away.
“Maria did drop-in visits for our 5 y.o. cat while we were away for a couple weeks, and she was wonderful! She tended to all of our precious girl’s needs (and she can be very needy), and kept her happy and active while we were out. I’d highly recommend Maria for cat-sitting needs.”
“Kelcy is a very positive and friendly person. My cat loved her! Her notes for every visit were very informative. She attached photos that were super helpful for me to see how he was doing. And definitely made me feel better everytime. She went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations! I would definitely recommend her!! Thank you, Kelcy!!”
“Nicole is awesome! She goes above and beyond to take care of my 3 cats. Always on time and gives great updates and pictures. I feel better leaving them for a few days knowing she is going to be checking on them. Highly recommend!”
“We are so pleased with Laura’s communication, compassion, and character. She is an amazing sitter who treats our Maverick like her own. He is a high energy pup and she always makes sure he lets out his energy during her drop in care. She takes him for walks/runs, plays fetch at the dog park, and always makes sure he is hydrated after they get back. We love having her and so does Maverick!”
About: Hi, I’m Troy, an experienced animal caregiver and the proud owner of a rescue sanctuary in the beautiful foothills of Iron Mountain. Animals are my passion, and I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even farm animals. Whether your pet needs a cozy staycation, extra exercise, or lots of love, they’ll feel right at home here! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I host an animal rescue and sanctuary. Every day starts with feeding, cleaning, and ensuring all animals in my care are happy and healthy. Throughout the day, I spend time socializing with them, providing exercise, enrichment, and any necessary medical care. Because of this, I’m always present and attentive to the needs of the animals I look after. For pets staying with me through Rover, they’ll be seamlessly integrated into my routine—whether it’s supervised playtime in my spacious outdoor area, relaxing in a cozy indoor space, or going on walks tailored to their energy levels. I’m experienced in balancing the needs of multiple animals while providing individualized care and attention. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s my lifestyle! In my home, pets receive personalized care in a spacious, enriching environment. I ensure they feel comfortable and safe by providing cozy resting areas, plenty of supervised outdoor space, and a structured routine that includes feeding, playtime, and exercise tailored to their needs. If a pet enjoys socializing, I carefully introduce them to friendly rescue animals, but I always respect each pet’s comfort level. For pets in my client’s home, I follow their established routine to minimize stress. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I keep the home tidy, provide regular updates, and make sure pets feel loved and secure while their owners are away. Whether in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like family!
About: I am an experienced pet sitter who had regularly cared for pets for the past three years. After my first two years I became a grooming assistant at my local pet spa, which not only grew my knowledge on how to care for animals, but my love for them as well! I would love to watch your fur-baby and treat them as my own. I have school most weekdays in the middle of the day, making the morning, late afternoon, and evening the perfect time for me to check in and walk your animals! I will come to your home to care for your pets and follow your preferred feeding and care routine. For client safety, I prefer that you provide a lockbox with a key so that your key always stays with your property. If you like I will send photos and updates of your wonderful pet!
About: I have many years of experience with all kinds of animals! Friends often ask me, as their go-to, for pet sitting. Multiple dogs at once, dogs and cats together in the same house, etc. I am currently a weekly dog sitter and walker for my best friend for over a year now! I received a liver transplant that saved my life almost two years ago, and walking was and has been a great recovery activity for me, especially when dogs are included. :) I currently have lots of time to spare! Interacting with animals and being outside is very important to me to lead a joyful life. I have very open availability, especially during the week. I am experienced with crate trained dogs, but I do keep them out the entirety that I am with them and try to provide an engaging interaction with your pets! I understand how important it is to provide your animals with stimulation!
“Sage is just thr sweetest... she came over to care for our cat, Cheesy at the times I requested. We got photos of him at each visit. He clearly enjoyed her visits. She fed him as asked and also helped with an unexpected package I received while gone. I would highly recommend Sage!”
About: Hello! My name is Bella, and I have quite a bit of experience under my belt. I have four dogs ranging from petite to large, (7lbs - 60lbs) and have grown up surrounded by these furry friends. Beginning at just 6 years old, I have been helping with the care of my fluffy siblings. I have first hand experience with the puppy stage all the way up to the senior vet appointments, and one of my dogs (Boxer mix) is still considered a young adult at just 4 years old. I have no problem sleeping over to keep your pet comfortable, and I can take them on lengthy walks too! If there’s one thing I’ve learned from these guys it’s that no matter the age, if a pet is loved the right way they will never lose their spark. I am currently unemployed, and a full-time college student, so I have plenty of time in the afternoons (after classes) to help out with your pets! I am fully capable of crating your dog if requested, and will keep a sharp eye on your baby at all times, on or off the leash. A clean water bowl is essential, and extra pets for being so good.

13. Kayla K.
“Kayla has been walking my dog twice a week for the past year and I cannot encourage you enough to use her as a resource. My dog Gadget has extremely high anxiety (as is the case with most small dogs) and Kayla was incredible about meeting us before and working to establish a relationship with Gadget. Kayla is extremely empathetic and it shows in her care for animals as well as her respect for people. Gadget has truly grown to love seeing Kayla and she has helped him expand his comfort with new people which is great! Kayla is extremely professional, timely, and fully communicates with me each time she comes by. I am very cautious about who takes care of my pup, and Kayla is the perfect fit! Don’t miss the opportunity to have your pets feel cared for by this amazing human!”
