About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — from loyal childhood pets to rescuing animals in need. They’re more than companions to me; they’re family, healers, and honestly, some days I connect with them better than most humans. I understand their need for routine, comfort, patience, and love — the same values I bring from years of childcare experience. As someone who has cared for children professionally, I’m calm under pressure, intuitive to nonverbal cues, and deeply reliable. I know how to create safe, engaging environments, and that carries over naturally to how I care for pets. Whether it’s an energetic pup, an anxious rescue, or a senior dog who just needs a gentle walk and some TLC, I meet them where they’re at. Hi! I’m a college student currently doing my internship at Novi High School, working toward a career in school counseling. I’m also a stay-at-home dad, and in between my family life and my internship, I’m looking to care for pets this summer to fill my cup and earn some extra income doing something I truly love. Animals have always been a part of my life — I’ve had pets since I was a kid, including rescues — and they’ve been a constant source of comfort and joy. Caring for them is second nature to me, and I believe animals deserve the same kind of patience, consistency, and love that I bring to both parenting and working with students. If you’re looking for someone who’s responsible, grounded, and will treat your pet like family, I’d be honored to help. I provide attentive, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. For dogs, that means regular walks, playtime, and positive interaction to keep them happy and active — all while ensuring they’re safely leashed, hydrated, and secure in their environment. For cats, I focus on a calm, clean, and enriched space with fresh food and water, clean litter, and gentle affection on their terms. Whether it’s managing energy levels or giving space when needed, I always prioritize comfort, safety, and trust in every moment of care.

“Maria is great! She's punctual and Aimee or doodle loves going on walks with her.”

I'm a trained pet care provider with skills and experience obtained from my local animal shelter. I have also pet sat for friends and family in my home and offered drop in care and in house sitting in theirs.

I’m an event florist, which means my weekly schedule is creative, flexible, and always changing a little! I usually work from around 9:30 a.m. to 3 or 4 p.m., though some days may start earlier or end later depending on how many beautiful blooms I’m arranging 🌸. Saturdays are typically event days with varying hours and locations, while Sundays and Mondays are when I’m most consistently off. Because I truly love pet sitting, I always try to make space for it when I can. If I’ve accepted a booking, it means I’ve checked my schedule carefully and am fully confident I can show up with the time, attention, and love your pet deserves. I’m happy to chat about my availability and answer any questions—transparency and comfort matter to me as much as they do to yo Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, my goal is always to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel secure, respected, and genuinely cared for. I know how important it is to trust the person watching over your furry family member, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll always treat your space with the utmost respect and your pet with the same care and affection I give my own. 😊

About: Born & raised in a family with just as many pets as people, I’ve stuck out for getting along with every animal I meet, very well and very fast. If your pet needs a new best friend, I’m just a booking away! My calendar is very flexible, just communicate with me beforehand :) As of right now, I’m a job-searching student with seemingly all the time in the world. I enjoy establishing daily routines that keep me busy. I personally own one happy parakeet and a healthy tortoise, but I also care for 2 of my family’s dogs (1 small, 1 medium) and one sweet cat. I have also assisted in potty training for dogs, and I work well with meal schedules.

“Samantha is amazing, she never failed to send pictures and get plenty of exercise with my insanely hyper dog, he just loved her. In February of this year I got into a horrible accident and didn’t wake up for two days, I lived alone and my dog didn’t have anyone, I woke up in the ICU and Samantha was the first one I got a hold of knowing she had a key. She showed and saved my dogs life, my keys were lost in the accident and I had no way to get home. She safely got the key to my family and Obsidian is safe and healthy with me traveling across the United States and happier then ever. I couldn’t thank her enough for being that reliable. I don’t know what I would ever do without my boy.”

About: I have always been a dog and animal lover. I used to watch my neighbors’ dogs when they would go on vacation. I always had my own dog growing up- first a yellow lab mix and then an adorable little beagle. I have my own dog who is 9, Frankie, & I love to care for her. I have many years of experience volunteering at animal shelters and socializing dogs. When I lived in Seattle, I cared for a friend’s dog when she would be out of town on the weekends for work. I am available this summer to help care for your dogs because I’ll be studying for the bar (!) every day, so help give me a break from studying. 🤪 My sweet girl is pretty low energy and loves to hang out in the back yard, so she is pretty low maintenance, but of course I love to just hang out with her and care for her. I’m excited to hear back and have the opportunity to interact with some great dogs! I have experience caring for puppies, high-energy dogs, low-energy dogs, on-leash reactive dogs, senior dogs, and many breeds and sizes. If this is your first booking on Rover, feel free to use my code for $20 off: https://www.rover.com/sit/cassiw30987 I am available most days all day because I’ll just be studying all day this summer. I am available on the weekends and short notice as well! I will update my availability for when I’m not free though. I will respect what you want me to do based on what your dog knows. Essentially I will follow the routine for however you prefer the walk or drop in visit to go!

About: I have experience with dogs as young as one and as old as fourteen. I easily adapt to all ages, temperaments, and unique care needs! In my career, I have also been told that I project a calm and empathetic nature, and I strongly believe that the animals I interact with can sense that, too. I tend to get along with every animal that I meet, and my love for animals runs VERY deep. I spent the last 5 years taking care of my sick senior dog who has recently transitioned. From there, I have spent extra time playing, dog sitting, and dog walking my family members fur babies so I can continue to spread my love for animals ❤️. Furthermore, as the weather is beginning to change here in the Midwest, I have been able to take weekly walks within my schedule! I am also fortunate enough to have 4 days off a week, so incorporating a walk around the block is very easy to squeeze into my lifestyle. Although dog walking can be very fun and relaxing, it is important to be aware of your surroundings. Animals can be unpredictable, therefore, when walking my fur babies, I make an appoint to be cautious of other animals that may be in the area such as deer, stray cats, or other dogs. Additionally, it is important to look over your shoulder, because cars can be extremely quiet and hard to hear sometimes!

“My dog is always happy to see Kerri. He comes back tired. Thanks!”

About: I've taken care of and lived with a multitude of pets since 2015. Every year up until this year, I've lived with a dog and/or cat. I love animals, (my favorite is llamas) and would start a farm if I wasn't raised in the city My schedule is constantly changing, but currently I am walking pets throughout the day, or babysitting during the days. I am open to change routines if needed For sitting pets in my home, I have an apartment, which means your animal would be leashed anytime not in my home. If we are in their environment, I listen to their cues of safety and trust and of course whatever the owners are comfortable with. Also, if your pet is under my care, I can be reached anytime :)

About: I've taken care of dogs for over 30 years and never imagined a site that I could join so that my mini poodle could have play dates. I'm retired and I love dogs so I thought dog sitting would be a good way for my mini poodle to meet new furry friends. I have one mini poodle named King that loves other pets. King doesn't use a cage, because he thinks hes human but I have no problem cage training other dogs. Otherwise, your pet will learn how to sit and engage with others without jumping on others and biting anyone.
