Cat Sitting Smyrna

“Jersey did a great job for us with Leo. She is dependable and great with dogs!”

“We have an anxious dog, and leaving Bailey behind is always the hardest part of any trip. Lexx made it easy. She cared for Bailey like she was her own — offering the kind of comfort and patience that you just can’t fake. We came home to one happy, settled pup, and that says everything. Lexx is the real deal. I’d highly recommend her to anyone… as long as she’s available, because we’re officially calling dibs. 😄 Thank you, Lexx — truly. We’ll be back!”

“Kira was great with my 2 kitties, sending pics daily (she even got my super shy girl to come out of hiding for pets!)”

Suzanne H.

“Katelyn is amazing. We receive detailed notes about her visit with our sweet Riley. The pics are affirmation that our fur baby is loved and cares for.”

About: I have experience with caring for puppies, older dogs, cats, and even experience with caring for all of the above at the same time! I also have experience dealing with dogs with anxiety, and am well-equipped to help your dog be comfortable while in my care. On top of all of this, I have many years of experience as a dog walker for clients all over West Michigan. I have a very flexible work-from-home job, which allows me to curate my schedule to fit your pets’ needs. I can easily adjust my schedule to meet any feeding, potty, and walk schedule! I will connect with you prior to starting the service to talk about the specific needs of your pet, and what kinds of things may need special attention. If they are coming to my home, your pet will be safe and sound in my house with my two dogs, and will be watched with care. If I am dropping in or visiting tour dog at your house, I will be sure to understand their needs, quirks, and habits before I begin the service so that we have the most successful visit possible!

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. As a devoted dog owner of three, caring for animals is an integral part of my daily life, and I extend that same level of attention, responsibility, and affection to every pet in my care. I am fully comfortable handling all aspects of daily dog care, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, enrichment, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to be home for most of the day throughout the week, as well as on weekends, providing consistent supervision and companionship. I also have the option to work from home when additional attention or frequent potty breaks are needed. In my household, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment. Dogs always have access to fresh water and are fed twice daily (or as often as your individual dog requires). Potty breaks are provided frequently based on each dog’s individual needs and cues; however, I am more than willing to follow a more structured schedule if that is what your pet is accustomed to. I am also experienced with administering medications, including monthly heartworm and flea prevention, and take great care to ensure all medications are given accurately and on time. While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I share my home with three friendly dogs, each with their own unique personality: an energetic and affectionate Boston Terrier, a more reserved but sweet Boston Terrier, and a laid-back Chihuahua who enjoys staying close by. They are well-socialized and can provide companionship for visiting dogs when appropriate. My home is set up to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I have three individual crates with comfortable bedding available for dogs who are crate trained or require confinement, and you are always welcome to bring your own crate if it helps your pet feel more at home. While my own dogs enjoy free access to the house and are allowed on the furniture, I am happy to follow your pet’s established rules and routines, including using gates or designated areas if needed. Although my yard is not physically fenced, safety is always a top priority. My dogs are never outdoors unsupervised, and the same standard of care applies to every pet I watch. I have a large, open yard that provides plenty of space for exercise, and I regularly walk dogs on a leash around the property and in the neighborhood. If your dog is most comfortable on a leash or tie-out while outside, I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences. All of my dogs are current on their vaccinations and receive routine veterinary care. I pay close attention to changes in their health, behavior, and overall well-being, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat both your home and your companion with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training, household rules, and daily routines to ensure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you are away. At bedtime, I am happy to follow whatever sleeping arrangement your pet is accustomed to, whether that means sleeping in a crate, on their own bed, or sharing a room with me. My goal is to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable. My boyfriend and I live together, but I will be your pet’s primary caregiver. He may occasionally assist if I need to step away briefly, providing additional supervision and support, but all communication and primary care responsibilities remain with me. For added peace of mind, I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive, compassionate, and responsible care throughout their stay.

I only want what’s best for your pet and to make sure your pet is happy :) I am currently available for weekends and some weekdays, if you need me to care for your pet on a unavailable day please message me and we can work something out. I look forward to meeting you and your pet any day! :) I prefer to care for your pet in your home because that's where they are most familiar and it won't stress them out too much.

“Julia did great with my puppy! I loved the updates and photos as well. I highly recommend her :)”

About: I have had pets since I was very young, including dogs, cats, bunnies, rats, and fish. I currently live with my 2 year old golden retriever and 4 mini rex rabbits. I have had many friends and family rely on me for their pet care needs! I work in a public school so I generally have open availability during the summer months! I’m also available most weeknights and weekends year round! My apartment community has a pet park and I love to take long walks with my many four-legged friends! My dog is kennel trained, so I am experienced in this area as well and have kennels available.

About: I’ve been working with animals ever since I got a job. It’s definitely one of my passions in life and I can’t wait to meet more animals everyday. I work at a pet store! I do work full time about 40 hours a week. My schedule does vary but I’m very flexible and would love to figure out what works best for us both. I have two dogs so unfortunately I can’t do sitting at my house but would be willing to do whatever else works. I can do drop ins, house sit, or just take them for walks.

“April provided great communication, lots of pictures & was willing to do a meet & greet before our first drop-in which is important for my dogs. I’d definitely use her again!”

“Christine is excellent and thoughtful!”

About: I had a hamster, mice, and fish. I grew up on a farm surrounded by cats and a lovely farm dog. I had a pet dog who sadly passed last year, but he was my everything for the 5 years I had him. I am tired of working in the fast food industry so I would love the opportunity to leave and take care of animals full time. Anything and everything they need! I will take them for long walks, play with them, give them the extra love! They're family and deserve the best care they can get. <3

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I have trained puppies and cared for senior dogs. Big or small, I'm comfortable with them all. Your dog will come back bathed and brushed. I only accept pets on my off days so that I can give them all the attention and care they deserve. I bathe them once during their stay and brush them every day. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have a big yard to walk them around in and live only about 10 minutes from a dog park.

“Sidney did great the pups really seemed to enjoy her. The only thing that she forgot was locking the back slider door upon leaving the house, but still totally worth a five star review despite the small over sight.”

Olivia P.

“Sabrina was absolutely amazing! From the start she got there early and really went above and beyond to make sure our cats were cared for while we were out. Many photos and videos shared, played with them tons, made sure they had everything they needed, and stayed in contact all throughout the day. I could not thank her enough for how great of a service it was.”

Amanda R.

About: I’ve had the privilege of being able to take care of not only my own but many others pets. Every pet is unique and I love the love and happiness they share I am working part time currently and have free time to hang with your sweet baby and take of their needs! I’m very flexible and eager to work. I live in an apartment so I make sure my cat gets all of stimulation and multiple different forms since we have a smaller home than most. I also take my cats on walks as a form of enrichment

“Where do I begin other than saying 5-stars off the bat! This was our first time leaving our cat and using Rover and Alexandra was absolutely phenomenal. She was extremely courteous, kind and punctual and super communicative from the initial interview and meeting throughout the entire time we were away. She played, fed and took care of all of our cats needs, and the photos she sent were very welcomed so we could see our cat while away. We couldn’t recommend Alexandra enough and we will 110% be using her services again if she is available. Thank you again!”
