“Jehiny did a great job at watching our baby girl Boxer. She sent updates and pictures which made us really happy. Boxers are very active and she managed her well. She’s 7 months old and loves attention. Jehiny ensured to give us an update upon our arrival and you could tell our baby girl had a great time. She was wagging her tail and looked very comfortable.”

“Alison has taken care of my 3 dogs overnight a few times now. They’re a lot and she does great! I come home and my dogs are happy and clearly have been loved while I’m out. She also handles one of my dogs eye medications for which I am very grateful!”

About: I’m an all around animal lover! I’m that person who will feed a stray and treat my own cat as my own. I've had pets since I was a little girl and taken care of them as well as my family's pets. I've also taken care of my friends' cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I also have experience with assisted dog birth delivery. I also give oral medication and provide round lock care for newborn kittens/puppies and have cared for senior pets. I have also cared for rabbits, hamsters, and reptiles. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I have the time to help love and take care of your four legged child(ren). I’m available Tuesday-Friday before 12pm and after 5pm, Mondays after 4pm and all day weekends. I have a fenced yard, a friendly cat and 3 daughters who are animal lovers but understand the boundaries that sometimes come with pets. I always have treats here and have a medium sized enclosed porch just in case enclosure is needed. I personally don’t believe in creating

“I am so delighted we found Milena as she took such excellent care of our puppy. This was my first time away from the pup and I was getting so anxious about finding someone responsible but after meeting Milena, it was clear she was very knowledgeable and trustworthy - I felt truly reassured Yara would be in terrific hands, which was indeed the case! Milena was quick to respond to my messages, sent me lots of photo updates, and was extra attentive to Yara's wellbeing. We will most definitely be booking Milena's services again!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.

“I can’t say enough good things about Shannon. I came to her with a little bit of an odd request—more like an evening of babysitting our pup than a traditional dog sit. Happy is 5 months old and full of energy. And also still learning how to behave in someone else’s house. We were staying with our daughter and her family so we could attend a family wedding in a different city than where we live. I looked on Rover and found this woman with years of experience as a certified dog sitter, who seemed very knowledgeable and friendly. I thought she would not be overwhelmed by a 5-month-old golden retriever pup. So I reached out to Shannon long distance and she was right there with all the good questions and suggestions about how to make my plan work. We chatted for about an hour to make sure we both felt comfortable and then I booked the appointment. Shannon even came to my daughter’s house the day before the wedding just to meet Happy and give me a chance to share any additional details. Then on the day of the wedding, she came right on time and gracefully managed our pup (walks, potty breaks, dinner, playing with our very young grandkids , settling for the night), which enabled our son-in-law to manage our two grandchildren without any additional complications. Her skill and kindness with Happy made the whole evening stress-free for all of us. It was a dream dog sit. When it came time for Shannon to leave, Happy just walked over and sat down right at her heels and nuzzled her hand. Thank you Shannon!”

About: I've taken care of dogs of every size (small, medium, large) and household cats! Love to teach (or at least try to teach) your pups new tricks when you're away. I work at U of M Hospital, so I will have time to hang out with your animals most days of the week (mornings, evenings, nights) and weekends! Safety is my top priority when it comes to caring for your animals. Depending on the animal, I'll work with the owner to make sure we have a safety plan in place.

Chris did an amazing job watching our dog Gobi and we will definitely have him watch him again in the future! He has a very calm, comforting demeanor which helped our nervous guy feel safe. But he also loved playing with him and tired him out nicely for us! He went above and beyond by taking him out for 3 extra walks and even brought one of our packages inside the house. I also loved the picture updates he sent us! Thank you Chris, see you soon!
