“Rhiannon was wonderful to have as our pet sitter for the weekend. The pets all take different meds, which can be a complication, but she didn’t bat an eye. Our dog was super sleepy upon our return, so clearly she’d had a few nice walks…or was tired from trying to wake poor Rhiannon up at 5am to get an early breakfast! It’s always so nice to come home to a clean home after being away- thanks and highly recommend Rhiannon for future pet sits!”

“Maya is one of the best dog sitters I have ever had! I highly recommend her. She developed an immediate relationship with my dogs, took them for daily walks, and just loves on them. Makes me feel good to know they are so well cared for when I’m gone. Thank you Maya!”

About: As a dedicated animal enthusiast with a lifelong passion for pet care, I bring plenty of experience and genuine love for animals to my role at Rover. Growing up in a household teeming with rescues, my love for animals started at a very young age, thanks to my mother's involvement in wildlife rescue. Throughout my journey, I have honed my pet care skills through various avenues, including my time at Mott Community College, where I balanced my academic pursuits with providing dedicated care to a loyal canine companion for two years. This job included daily walks/runs that averaged 2-3 miles, 5 times a week for 30 minutes to an hour. This experience not only showcased my reliability and commitment but also deepened my understanding of canine behavior and needs. To add, I attended Mott Community College in 2021-2023 and played softball during my time there. This allowed me to push myself physically and able to provide good exercise for animals and able to keep up. My time on the field cultivated a strong sense of discipline and determination. This also highlights my attributes that serve me well in ensuring the safety, security, and well-being of the pets under my care. Whether its engaging in high-energy play sessions, going for long walks or providing assistance to pets with special needs, my physical strength enables to meet the demands of even the most active and energetic companions with ease and enthusiasm. Academically, I hold an Associate's degree in General Studies, reflecting my diverse interests and commitment to learning. I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Psychology at Central Michigan University, with my academic background enriching my approach to pet care, allowing to leverage insights into animal behavior and cognition to better understand and cater to her furry charges' individual needs. At home, my personal experience with the animals I currently own serve as a testament to my unwavering dedication to animal welfare. With four dogs, seven cats, three birds, and a lizard, my household is a bustling sanctuary where each creature receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. Living on a lakefront property with ample land, my home provides an ideal setting for pets to thrive, offering ample space for exploration, play, and relaxation in a safe and nurturing environment. Now, as I return home for the summer, I am eagerly looking forward to extending my passion for animal care beyond my personal domain and experience, seeking opportunities to share my expertise and affection with other beloved pets in the community. With my extensive experience, academic background, and genuine love for animals, I am more than equipped to provide top-notch care and companionship to furry friends of all shapes and sizes. Whether it's daily walks, cozy cuddle sessions, or personalized care routines, my compassionate approach ensures that every pet under my watch receives the attentive care and affection they deserve. With my current focus on pursuing my Master's degree in Psychology at Central Michigan University, I have the flexibility to dedicate ample time and attention to providing exceptional pet care. When it comes to safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment for pets, I prioritize several key elements in both my own home and my clients' homes: Secure Environment: I ensure that the physical environment is safe and secure for pets, minimizing potential hazards and risks. This includes pet-proofing spaces, securing fences, and removing any toxic substances or objects that could pose a danger to pets. Supervision and Monitoring: Whether in my own home or at a client's residence, I maintain constant supervision and monitoring of pets to prevent accidents and address any emerging concerns promptly. This includes being attentive during playtime, monitoring interactions between pets, and staying vigilant during outdoor activities. Clear Communication: I maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners to establish trust and ensure their peace of mind. This includes providing regular updates on their pet's well-being, any notable behaviors or concerns, and adhering to any specific instructions or preferences regarding care routines. Comfort and Familiarity: I strive to create a comfortable and familiar environment for pets, whether they're in my home or their own. This includes providing cozy bedding, favorite toys, and maintaining consistent routines to minimize stress and anxiety. Respect for Boundaries: I respect the boundaries and preferences of both pets and their owners. This includes honoring any restrictions on access to certain areas of the home, respecting feeding schedules and dietary restrictions, and ensuring that pets feel comfortable and secure in their surroundings.
