“Gabbie was a great dog and house sitter! We were out of the country for ten days and I felt fully comfortable having her stay in our home and watch our dog. We came home to an immaculate house and happy pup. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for pet care in the Ann Arbor/Ypsi area.”

“Melissa went above and beyond to make sure my two beagles got everything they needed while i was making a last minute trip. I will be booking with her again in the future!”

“Lissa always does a wonderful job! She communicates well and truly enjoys watching our dog Molly. We appreciate all that she does! I highly recommend Lissa to watch your fur babies!”

About: I’ve been a shelter volunteer for 5 years, working closely with the dogs most people struggle with the reactive ones, the jumpy ones, the bitey ones, the over-stimulated ones, and the dogs that need real structure and patience to thrive I’m used to reading body language fast and staying calm no matter what’s in front of me. Whether it’s leash pulling, overexcitement, reactivity, or lack of focus. Maybe your dog just needs more work on learning commands and learning obedience I can do that to! let me know what I can do to best help you and your dog I would love to help Pet care is already a major part of my daily and weekly routine. I have 8 birds at home and On top of that, I volunteer at an animal shelter 2–4 days a week, where I work hands on with a wide range of dogs especially high energy dogs and dogs that need extra structure and patience. That experience keeps me consistently involved in reading behavior, handling different temperaments, and staying calm in all situations. When I’m not at the shelter, I plan my schedule around Rover bookings like walks, drop-ins, and training. I make sure each visit has enough time and attention When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routine that you provide so the pet stays comfortable and consistent in their environment
“Lindsey took such good care of our fur babies and feathered ladies. I have 2 cats, 2 German Shepherds, and 13 chickens and she gave them lots of love and attention while we were gone. We got lots of photos and check ins which put my family at ease! Will definitely be reaching out to Lindsey in the future when we want to go on vacation. 10/10! 💕”

“Salina is great! She watched our house and dogs for us, and even put up with our difficult old man dog! She had great communication the whole time we were gone and sent us pictures. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Angela was great! The dogs seemed happy and well cared for. She sent pictures while we were gone and was responsive to texts. The dishwasher was ran and the towels were washed. The house looked great.”

About: I have taken care of all types of cats and dogs and feel comfortable around animals. I enjoy pet sitting and overall animal care.

My goal is to make sure any pet feels loved and cared for, I am happy to answer any questions you may have and will treat your pet like my own. Im currently working full time, but during the evenings I’ll have time to give your furry friends the attention they need. I am very open to dropping in whenever needed! Weekends I am usually always available. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I make sure that I can appropriately keep and eye on your pet at all times because I know our furry friends can get into trouble sometimes.
“Leah was great with all my animals! She had a houseful and took care of my fur babies like her own. Sent updates and photos to let me know how they were doing. She also came back after I told her I’d be home because we got delayed coming home. Kept the house clean! Will definitely use her services in the future!”

About: I am an attorney with dozens of years of experience caring for my own dogs and pet sitting for friends and family! I have a shih tzu, pug, king charles spaniel, and a canary :). I would love to give your pets the same love! I am currently flexible with my schedule because I work remotely from home most days, so I am free for walks, visits, and overnights as needed. I definitely will leave your home clean and tidy. I care for pets by making sure they have plenty of food and water, taking them out to the bathroom regularly, and allowing them time to exercise and play.
“Brianna was so wonderful and caring to my cats! She sent me photos and videos of them and checked in with me all the time. She made being away from them a lot easier for me. I appreciate her staying with them and taking such good care of them. She even offered to stay an extra night with them for me last minute. I will definitely be booking with her again and I’m sure my boys will miss her being around! ❤️”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have cared for up to six at once, all with very different personalities, energy levels, and needs. This has taught me how to read behavior, stay patient, and adjust my care to each individual dog. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, walks, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I make sure pets are not left alone for long periods and can adjust my routine to match your pet’s normal schedule, including feeding times, walks, and playtime. Although on Tuesday’s I have college classes in the evening. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. Having grown up with multiple dogs at once, I’m very aware of different behaviors and how to manage them safely. I always follow owner instructions closely, keep a clean and secure space, and monitor pets to make sure they’re comfortable. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I treat them like my own.
About: Looking after your pet family is something I specialize in, I've had my own cats, dogs, and even fish since I was 12, and have experience with giving medication to the most stubborn of pets. Old or young, fur or scales, I'd love to give your pets the most comfortable experience :) Available for both weekdays, and weekends, so take those vacations without worry about leaving your pets behind! Can work with daily check-ins, or staying in house. Your pets will not have to stay in an unfamiliar environment while you are gone, this will cause them to be much less stressed about adapting to a strange place, and will make your furry friend the most comfortable!
“Crystal is incredible. We were in a tough spot, needing to find a dog sitter on short notice and thankfully Crystal came into our life at the perfect time. She is a true professional and took care of our pup as if he was her own. She sent countless photos, videos, and messages to make sure we were fully aware of how it was going while we were away which gave us total peace of mind. 100% recommend!”

About: I currently have 2 dogs that I’ve trained from puppies. I’ve pet sit for my brother for the last 5 years. A day hasn’t gone by in the last 10 years that I’m not out walking dogs. I’ve cared for senior dogs as well as puppies and love them all. I currently work 2-3 days a week with a rotating schedule but am available every morning and night as well as most weekends. My schedule is extremely flexible. I have a fenced in yard in a great neighborhood. Both my dogs are extremely friendly and always looking for another friend to play with.
“Madison took excellent care of my 2 babies, Sam and Bella, for a week. She did scheduled visits for feeding, potty breaks, play time and walks. But also made quick decision for an unplanned emergency vet trip, extra drop off/pickup at the overnight MedVet for 1 pup, and an overnight stay at my house with the other pup for extra caution observation. She made sure their health was priority while I was on a cruise with limited contact. ♥️”

Our first experience with Rover. Gabrielle S. house sitting “Harry” was wonderful, she watched our 4 1/2 year old rescue dog for the weekend, and provided excellent care. Gabrielle kept us updated, with text & pictures. Will be sure to book her again for our next time away.

Chelsea was amazing! This was the first time we left our 8mo puppy with someone over night and she made it so easy. She was responsive and gave your pup the best day. She is great with bigger puppies who are still in training. 10/10 recommended and will use her in the future!
