“Ann-Marie was very sweet and friendly. I felt as though she took great care of my pets. I was sent frequent updates and pictures. She seems to be a very trustworthy person to have come to your home and care for your animals and we would absolutely have her come back to care for our dogs again.”


“Eric is an excellent Dog Sitter! Within minutes he had befriended our oldest cranky Shorkey at the Meet and Greet. When he arrived to sit with our dogs they were actually excited to see him. Eric is a Dog Whisperer and our dogs like him a lot. We really appreciate Eric and will gladly use him again! Thanks for the great communication and pics of our dogs while we were out for the day!”


“Natalie was great with all of our fur babies! She took care of our three dogs and two cats. They were all comfortable with her, including our very shy kitties. She stayed at our house for a week, and took care of everything, so we could enjoy our vacation. We will definitely book again!”


“Sally did a wonderful job watching our dog and our house while we were away for the holidays this year. She was very accommodating, considerate and kind, and we would absolutely have her care for our pup again! She sent us pictures or videos every day and helped put our mind at ease. Highly recommend!!”


“Andrew was excellent! It was our first time using a dog sitter in our home and I could not have been more at ease. We were away for an entire week and Andrew spent so much time with them doing all of the things they love. He took them to the beach every day and kept us informed with pictures and texts letting us know how much fun they were having. I highly recommend him!”


About: I've had all kinds of pets in my life, from bunnies and fish to kitties and dogs! I have experience giving medications, in pill form and injectables (previously had a pet with diabetes), and I'm comfortable with some grooming, like baths and brushouts. I love getting to know everyone's pets and being able to love them like my own -- they become part of my family, too! I have a full time job but find that my hours are perfect for sitting! I have most weekends off as well, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! Boarding in my home is a little different. Due to my own animals safety, I do require AT LEAST ONE meet and greet with my dogs to ensure they get along. Your pet will also absolutely need to be okay with cats, and they will need to be crate trained in order to be left at my home. All my dogs are crate trained and are crated when we are not home. There is also a list of vaccines I require your pet(s) to have--I will share these if you're looking to book sitting in my home! Sitting in YOUR home is MUCH different and actually preferable for senior dogs or anxious dogs! I don't like to stress dogs out with an environment change, it can be too much for some dogs and I'd hate to put your pet through that! I will follow all house rules and routines for your pet, and I always clean up after myself and your pet, which includes dishes, changing bedding, laundry (occasionally), vacuuming, etc.!

“Jaekob was great and Cooper and Kiara had a great time. He stayed with them overnight and was a respectful house guest!! We would book with him again without hesitation.”


“Sophie did a great job with our 4 pets and also did us a huge favor by agreeing to pet sit last minute, so we could go home for a funeral. We will definitely use Sophie again!”

“Hooch had the best time! Philippa was amazing and kept me updated the whole time! Highly Recommend booking her!”



“Rebecca provided a top-notch level of service, housesitting for senior black lab. She provided text updates and fun pix so we could follow how everything was going and see how much Smokey Bear loved being with her. Rebecca managed her time in our home and property very responsibly. We will definitely call her first for our next trip!”


“Emma was an absolute lifesaver! Our typical sitter had bailed last minute and she was able to accommodate our last minute request. She sent frequent photos and was very responsive throughout the weekend. We'll definitely continue to utilize her going forward!”


About: Pets are like family and I will make sure that your pet is taken care of properly. I am a dependable worker and I am looking for some part time jobs while I work remotely as a research scientist at MSU! I have been a foster mom to kittens and dogs, pet sitter for family friends and am now a cat mom myself. I am comfortable with big or small dogs and I am very good with cats of all ages/ personalities. I am now working remotely for MSU so my schedule is very flexible in terms of watching pets during the work week or on weekends! It is easy for me to pet sit during the day as long as I have WiFi! I am available to take pets on walks of any length, take them to the vet if something should happen while the owner is away and will treat your pet like my own. I have also been in charge of pets with extensive medication schedules so that is something I am available to offer if you have a sick pet!

“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.”


About: Hi, I'm Meghan! a lifelong animal lover that you can count on. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I've grown up with a variety of animals including: dogs (both big and small), cats (both outgoing and timid), as well as even the smallest of pets (like hamsters, bunnies, snakes, fish, and lizards) and I truly believe our pets are family. While most of my experience comes from caring for my own animals, I'm attentive, patient, and committed to following any and all instructions to keep your pet safe and happy while you're away. This includes any specific routines, medications, or favorite toys. I'll make sure everything runs smoothly just the way they like it. Whether you need someone to drop in, go for a walk, or provide overnight care, I'd love to help. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone new and I promise to treat them like my own. I'm comfortable with all types of personalities and would welcome a meet-and-greet to learn more about your needs! I work part-time over the summer but I still have availability for early mornings, afternoons, evenings drop-ins/walks and overnights on most days depending on location. Your pets comfort and safety come first - especially in their own home. I take great care to follow any and all instructions closely so your pet can stick to their normal routine like feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications or playtime.

About: I've had a different varity of pets my whole life, including; cats, dogs, rabbits and fish. I give medication via icecream to one of our family dogs every day twice a day when other family members are busy. I own and take care of two cats independently as well as fish. I will be working full time in the summer to save up for college tutition. I'm hopeing to pet sit, do drop ins, or dog walk inbetween shifts or on days off to make extra money. I take care of my own pets everyday, such as feed them, clean their litter box’s , play with them, and give them love everyday. As well as giving medicine to my family's dogs occasionally. I'm a very respectful person and make sure to keep everything where you left it. Whenever I'm with your animal, they will be entertained and loved. For walks they will get ample exercise and fresh air. You will never have to worry about coming home to a new mess or problem to clean up while I'm with your animal.

“Kathryn is amazing! She is kind, attentive and responsible. I trust her implicitly with my little fur-bean. I’m so happy to have connected with her. She takes the worry and stress out of traveling — I don’t have to worry about my pup or my house when Kathryn is there to take care of everything.”

About: With two years of hands-on experience working in a dog daycare boarding facility, followed by a year at a groomers your pets are in very safe hands! With a flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my services to meet the specific needs of each pet, I pride myself on creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for your beloved pets. Whether it's cuddle time on the couch, interactive play sessions, or simply ensuring that your pet feels loved and cared for while you're gone, rest assured that I treat each pet as if they were my own. Your furry friends are in good hands with me!

“Perfect from our standpoint as well as Jollys.”


“Gabe was fantastic w the animals, and went above and beyond w their care, as well as taking care of our home. Would highly use and recommend him to anyone.”


About: Animals love me for my calm, loving demeanor. I am a good pack leader and provide a safe and fun place for your fur baby while your away. I am retired with plenty of time on my hands. It gets lonely at times so I enjoy the company of both dogs and cats. I have a large yard with room to roam, sniff and play. You can trust that I will take just as good of care of your fur babies as I do my own.
