“Great first experience. Chloe was well taken care of. We appreciated the updates and photos. We rarely leave her so this was reassuring. We’re planning a 2 week stay next month and feel very comfortable having Amber and family taking care of our fur baby.”

“Lucy was amazing! She took such great care of Miso. He can get a little homesick and go on a hunger strike and Lucy was extremely communicative and asked what she could do to help him. We will definitely use Lucy next time we travel.”
“Winston loves going to Jenny’s when we are in town. She is amazing and her dog Jonas is so friendly and gentle with Winston they play together so well. Highly recommended Jenny as your dog sitter. Thank you so much ☺️ ❤️”

“Thank you Olivia for taking such good care of Rosey Girl. This was our first overnight away and we were very nervous dog parents. Olivia was very kind and reassured us while we were away by sending updates and photos. We will be repeat customers.”

“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”

“Alicia and her family were great with our dogs! Everyone came home happy, healthy and exhausted which is always a good sign. I appreciated Alicia’s responsiveness, flexibility and all the dog pics 😊”

“This was my first time havinh Shawn keep my puppy and I must say she was very nice upon our first meeting and was very understanding when I was running late to drop off, which I totally appreciated. My pup seemed to have had a good time with her. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I've always had a dog and I've always loved to care and take care of them and now that I'm home all the time I have all the time in the world for your pet and mine. I'm home all the time I can take care of your pet any day of the week or weekend. So let the love begin we'll make a perfect fit. I have a fenced in yard I also have a playful Simba that will keep your pets full of joy and play, and if you require them to be in a cage I'm also okay with that also I could do either or in or out of cage, preferably if they're not housebroken I would love for them to be in a crate.
About: I've had and cared for animals since I was 7 years old. I've cared for cats, dogs, birds, and a variety of livestock. In addition to caring for my personal animals, I've also provided house sitting services, as well as, managed a 10+ horse facility! I work from home, therefore, have plenty of flexibility to tend to your pet! I am available for boarding Thurs-Sun. I am available for daycare Sun, Mon, Thurs, Fri, Sat - I can accommodate an occasional Tues, Wed for daycare. I live on a beautiful farm nestled in Southwest Michigan. Our farm is a perfect setting for pups of all sizes to play, run, relax, and feel right at home!! With years of hands-on experience, and with my work from home flexibility, you can rest assured knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or lounging around the house, I tailor their stay to match their needs!
“Christina is a wonderful dog sitter. She literally helped me out when I was dealing with a personal crisis and needed an emergency sitter for my dog. She was able to connect with him & gain his trust quickly. Proof that good people are out there! Thanks a million Christina!! :)”

“Clara did an amazing job taking care of our babies. She was very professional at taking care of a sick dog. Even when our phones did not get service she did an awesome job taking care of Nanny and letting her leave early. She knew what our baby needed. I would definitely go back and refer her to anyone.”
About: Always grown up around pets. My parents always had two dogs and my aunt is a experienced veterinarian. I’ve trained puppy’s, and can be relied upon. Available during weekends.

“Daisy was the happiest I've ever seen her with someone else taking care of her. Emily is a treasure that I found. I'll be using her often. Thank you Emily! And her dogs were awesome with Daisy!”

About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals and grew up on my families small hobby farm. Now as an adult I have my own pups and a cat. I love spending time with my own pups and cat. I currently work until 3 pm each day, Monday - Friday. I can walk or care for your furry friend after work or most weekends. My cat is free range - in and out of the house. My dogs are kenneled while I am away from the house. I would prefer any dogs staying at my home are also kenneled while I am away. I have a fenced in backyard. Our pets are a part of the family meaning that they are allowed on couches and any area of the home.

Saint Joseph dog parents share their Rover experiences
First time the boys stayed with Lucy and I couldn’t be happier. She provided plenty of updates and pictures, the pickup/drop off was smooth, and they came home tired and happy from playing. Lucy is incredible and will use her services in the future when in the area! Wish we had somebody as solid as Lucy closer to us so we could book more often. 10/10
