About: I’ve had pets all my life, with experience caring for dogs of many different sizes and breeds. While taking care of your pet I will make them feel at home, maintain their routine with them and give plenty of attention. Pet care is vital in my house. With 3 animals to take care of, I have daily routines set in place in order to ensure my pets are well taken care of.

About: I’ve cared for animals of all sizes and personalities; from tiny lap dogs to powerful Akitas, and from playful kittens to senior cats with medical needs. With 28 years of experience, I’m confident handling a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and routines. Whether it’s giving medication, going on long walks, scooping litter boxes, or just offering some extra love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it's regular walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m able to tailor my routine around their needs. Pet care fits naturally into my day; I genuinely enjoy it and always make it a priority! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any routines or instructions closely to help pets feel at ease and keep their environment familiar. I make sure they’re never left unattended for long, always have access to fresh water, and get plenty of love and attention. I also keep spaces clean, secure, and calm; whether it’s cozy nap time or active playtime, I aim to create a stress-free, loving environment.
About: I have close attention to detail, which is important when caring for pets. I’m able to identify behavior and appetite changes and provide proper care. I am patient, kind & caring. I have an open schedule during the summertime. When I’m not caring for others’ animals, I’m spending time loving on my own cat and often caring for my MIL’s senior dog. I pay close attention not only to giving your pet lots of love, but also their behaviors and appetite to ensure they are healthy & happy. I love to take dogs for walks and provide a comfortable and clean environment for cats & dogs. Pets can sometimes be apprehensive when meeting a new caregiver, so it’s important to be patient & kind as they get to know me and become comfortable.
About: Previous to moving back to MI, I was a dog foster with Dallas Animal Shelter. I also have my own two rescues. I have experience with a wide array of dogs including small chihuahuas to big ole mastiffs ! I love dogs! Each dog I fostered had medical needs and I am a nurse so I promise to care for your pups in the best possible way! So excited to meet you and your pup ! I am a nurse with a rotating schedule, which is great because I can revolve my schedule around your needs (with appropriate notice). I am happy to set up a weekly routine if that is what best fits your needs. I am happy to spend time with your doggy in their fenced yard, walks, and crate them as preferred. However, I do love dog cuddles, so they may be a little late to be crated!!
“Beth does an amazing job with our two cats. She is so reliable and trustworthy. We’ve had her watch our cats a bunch of times and always does a great, great job. I don’t trust many people with my girls but she is just incredible. Thank you so much Beth!”
About: I have 10 years of experience taking care of pets! I have walked puppies, middle aged, and elderly dogs, and I love hanging out with cats as well. I am reliable, punctual, and attentive. I’m excited to meet your pet! As a recent college grad, I take care of cats and dogs in my time off from work to make some extra money on the side doing something I love :) I will follow your instructions for drop-in visits in your home and/or walks. Let me know what is best for your pet and I will do my best to follow that!
About: I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I love to make pets feel comfortable while their loved ones are away! I am reliable, communicative, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety. I have a flexible schedule and a passion to allow for time during the day to take your pet for walks, play, and feed them. Ask me about my new client discount! You can count on me to provide frequent updates, photos, and open communication. I believe that building trust is the foundation for great pet care.
“Katy was ana amazing pet sitter and gave so much affection towards my animals. Meeting with her before I felt very comfortable and at ease and my pets welcomed her with open paws. Would highly recommend to anyone else. Thank you Katy!”
About: I have 12 years of hands-on experience caring for my own shelter dog, who is now a happy senior. I've learned how to handle everything from playful puppy energy to the gentler needs of older dogs. My pup loves making new friends, so your dog will have a built-in buddy for playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I treat every dog like family — with patience, love, and plenty of tail wags! https://www.rover.com/sit/ryanp03006 For a discount on your first booking! I work during the week but come home during my lunch for potty time for my dog. After work nights are spent on a nice night walk and relaxing with movies and snacks. Typically dog goes out 3/4 times a day for walks/bathroom breaks. In my home, pets get lots of love, playtime, and a cozy, safe environment. I follow their regular routines to help them feel comfortable — from feeding and potty breaks to walks and cuddle time. In a client’s home, I treat your space with respect and keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. Whether it’s play sessions, walks, or quiet time, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way.
About: I create a personal bond between me and your pet- I take them on many walks and love to play with them. I am attentive with puppies and help potty train them as well. It is about your pet, not me! I have a completely free schedule as I am putting most of my energy into pet sitting. The pets are of utmost importance to me. I am able to maximize play time and can easily crate if needed. I love to go on walks and possible dog parks in the area.

CALI B.
“I can’t recommend Cali enough! She watched my two dogs for a week, and I was blown away by how attentive, thoughtful, and communicative she was every step of the way. From the moment we connected, she made sure to understand each dog’s needs, routines, and quirks. I received regular updates, photos, and check-ins that put me totally at ease. Both of my pups can be a little anxious when I leave, but they clearly felt safe and happy with her, when I picked them up, they were calm, content, and clearly well cared for. She has a natural way with animals and a genuine love for them that shines through. It’s obvious she has experience and takes her responsibility seriously. I’ll absolutely be booking her again!”

She is one of Winnie’s favorite people. Meg is definitely an animal lover and someone that you can totally trust with you pets.”
Grace K.
“Working with Grace was the best experience I’ve had with a dog service. She took great care with my senior dog Mitzy, making sure she tested the pavement before a walk on a hot day, lots of water, and lots of love for my sweet girl. Grace does this because she truly loves dogs and her genuine interest in dogs and kindness is palpable! I feel peace of mind knowing Grace is available to stay with Mitzy when I’m out of town because she loves Grace which helps me know I can trust her. Thanks Grace for all your attentive care and responsibility for Mitzy.”

Ryan’s care and attention to detail, including giving medication, is fantastic. Ryan has always been thorough in his preparation by confirming details of our animals’ routines and then has provided updates as needed.”

Kris is awesome! She’s provided awesome care to our 16 yo pup and now does the same for our 16 week old pup. Her communication is excellent. She sends great photos and provides the TLC we want for our pups while we are away!

Brian helped me out in a pinch, as I needed to make a last-minute trip out of state for a family funeral. Grateful for his help!
Rachael always does a great job! She is definitely my top choice for my cats. She takes wonderful care of them, sends a great report and takes 10+ photos every time.
Kaitlyn was fantastic! I hadn't used Rover before and didn't completely know what to expect, but she did such a great job with my fluffy little buddy. If she's good with dropping by to take care of Loki again -- I think that'd be the case (but don't want to assume) -- I'll definitely book her again whenever I go out of town. And I definitely recommend Kaitlyn if you are looking for someone to watch after your furry, fuzzy, and/or fluffy buddy!
I can definitely see that Amanda did a wonderful job taking care of our cats. I could see in their faces in the updates and tell in their body language when we returned that they didn’t miss us too much. Amanda did a great job entertaining and maintaining their schedules. This was a stress free vacation for me and the cats!
Sarah is wonderful! Responsive and enthusiastic! I felt great knowing she was going to take care of my dogs.
I don't usually leave reviews, but I felt compelled to make an exception for Evelyn. She took excellent care of our pets with great attention and care. She followed every instruction to the letter and clearly takes her responsibilities seriously. It’s rare to come across someone so reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely kind. Just a really nice kid with a great attitude. Highly recommended!
She is absolutely amazing, my cats loved her. She fed them, and played with them. It is really nice to have a caretaker for the cats that treat them like they matter. Cats have a 6th sense about people and they took to her right away. I would definitely have her take care of my pets again.
We so appreciate Tia being able to stop by for a fairly last minute visit. She spent lots of time playing with fern in the backyard and made sure she was fed. Fern was so happy when I got home and clearly had plenty of playtime with Tia which is great! We will certainly reach out for drop in visits again.
Jenna is such a reliable and caring sitter for my cat, Thelma. My mind is always at ease when Jenna is “on duty.”
I’m so happy to have found this service and Henry! He took such great care of my boys while we were in and out of town moving. Thank you so much Henry, we really appreciate all you did and will think of you the next time we need to go out of town.
Holly was absolutely amazing!! She is great with our two cats and they do well with her even with having shy personalities. We will definitely be using Holly for any future trips.
Cindy is great with communication, super easy to work with, and clearly cares about animals very much!
Rachel was awesome! She let my dogs out on time every day and sent update pictures which definitely eased my mind. It was nice knowing my pups were in good hands while I was gone! Would recommend her!
This was my first time and I wanted to meet before leaving the state, McKenzie was willing to make time the day of her family Christmas gathering for me, her willingness reflected she takes the job seriously. Since I had a prior sitter cancel last minute I was very grateful McKenzie was reliable!
First time, Sierra was great, especially that she made time to meet me before Christmas to get acquainted. Because I was going out of state, I was so grateful there was no cancellation! Her notes showed warmth, that she enjoys her job, and she texted questions on a task that was unclear to make sure she got everything right. Glad to have a reliable sitter!
We used Rachael again while we were at another engagement. They were excited to see her a second time. She did fantastic and we plan to use her again for our 2 little pups.
