“Emily is an amazing caregiver for our kitty! Very glad to have found her. She paid attention to my kitty's unique personality and used her time to make a real connection with her, which is a special thing. 🥰 My cat warmed up to her quickly and loved all the TLC she received while we were away. Playtime, brushes, cleanups, it was perfect. I would definitely book with Emily again in the future. Thank you for everything! ✨”
About: I have been helping my parents with their pets for the past 15 years. At the age of 13 I was given my own puppy, which helped me understand the responsibility that it takes to care for animals. I pride myself in being a trustworthy and caring person, who loves to spend time with animals. I currently am in school for nursing so my schedule varies. I try to find free time every week to get outside and move, which is why I am looking for the opportunity to spend time with animals while I do this. I have found that animals tend to respond better to calm and collected persons, so I pride myself on staying calm under pressure. Many of the families that I have pet sit for in the past complimented my patience and caring nature.
About: I have loved animals my entire life. My childhood dog was an amazing yellow lab who lived 13 long years. I’m currently the mother of two perfect cats I have been blessed with for 11 amazing years. There is no one you can trust more with your loved one than me! Saturdays, Sundays & Mondays early afternoon I am always available. (I work full time Tuesday-Friday). I am always outside and would love a companion to take care of! You can trust me! I am hyper observant. I will care for your baby as if they are my own. In my own home, I always provide supervision to my pets. There is no one more important to us than our fur babies!
About: I’ve been caring for animals for almost my entire life this including dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with puppies, kittens, senior pets, and animals that need extra patience or attention. I also have experience with raw feeding, as my family and I do the same for our dogs and cats at home. I addition to both dogs and cats, I have hands on experience caring for different exotic pets such as snakes, tarantulas, frogs and other invertebrates, along with small animals like rats and guinea pigs as well. My dad and I breed snakes and rats, so I’m very familiar with feeding routines, habitat care, and handling animals that require specific environments and attention. Because of this background, I’m confident managing different temperaments, routines, and care needs. I always prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication so you feel completely comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company. Whether your pet is covered in scales or furr, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for! I’m currently a student at Wayne State and also work for a catering company, which allows me to maintain a pretty flexible schedule for pet care. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pets get plenty of time, attention, and care while you’re away. I know every pet has their own routine, so I’m always willing to work around what makes them most comfortable! I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I follow any instructions and routines provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special needs. I also understand that every pet has different boundaries, so I’ll give them as much attention or space as they need.
“We have used Rover a few times before to find a sitter for our cat and have never been disappointed but Keana is definitely going to be my first choice if we're in need of a cat sitter again. It's always good to find a reliable sitter you trust. It's even greater if you feel your pet feels comfortable with said sitter as well. Our cat usually doesn't easily warm up to new people so it means a lot when she lets herself petted and feels comfortable enough to 'complain' or 'chat' with someone other than us. Well, our cat certainly felt comfortable around Keana as some of the videos she send us clearly show. Also, Keana is super nice and easy to communicate with. And, I appreciate that she brought in the mail and checked on my kitchen herbs without having asked to do so. Thank you so much.”

I work from home so my schedule is a bit flexible. I have a vehicle in the city so that helps too! I look forward! I follow rules and directions very well. I have the most experience with an aging dog who’s 14 but also lived with a dog that really is more of a shadow! Willing to accommodate the needs of the dog within means.
“They were very well cared for. Updates were provided twice a day, they offered more if we needed it. All questions I had up to and during the process were answered quickly. Our very anxious cats came home and immediately began being themselves and acting right as rain.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was 15. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and turtles, both as my own pets and for others.

About: My commitment to providing the highest level of care, combined with my love for animals, ensures that your pet will receive the best possible care while you are away.

“Jaime was everything her reviews say she is. Responsible, considerate, caring, and kept the house perfect. She sent photos and/or videos daily. I was able to go on vacation, and not worry about my animals. I will absolutely have her house/pet sit again. Very happy with how the whole process worked, and my animals were very comfortable with her. Even my shy one, showed herself. Thank you Jaime!”

About: I walk 10,000 steps a day and would love to talk your dog along for a long walk. I've taken care of pets my whole life and love to volunteer in local shelters. I can teach your dog a few tricks, get all their zoomies out with a nice run, and give them all the frisbee, ball, tug of war, hide and seek, etc. playtime that they might want. I can also provide extra care to anxious, reactive, older, post surgery, and/or disabled pets. I have some dog training experience and can help your dog be more comfortable with other dogs, other people, address triggers, reduce pulling on the leash, etc. During our walks, your pets will play, relax, and make new doggie friends all the time with careful introductions and lots of happy moments. Looking to build long term working relationships with my clients and new pet friends. You can always reach me when I'm pet sitting if you ever have a question, I am always just a phone call or a text away. My schedule is very flexible and I like to be outside as much as possible when it comes to spending time with pets. I am avaliable on weekends, weekdays, and can be open to last minute changes. I always make sure the pets have food and a fresh bowl of water. After that I like to build some trust with sniffs and treats, see if they know any tricks. Once the pet is comfortable it's time for a walk and/or playtime to get all the pent up energy out. I think playtime is the most happy time for pets so I always to engage in a few different kinds of games until I find one that they love. This way the pets are happy and comfortable and can happily nap for the rest of the day after we are done.

She did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was away on vacation. She was reliable, communicated well, and gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.
