“We left our 10 month old Pippin with Kimberly and Jeremy for a long weekend and were so happy we chose them! Kimberly sent us pictures and Pippin made himself right at home immediately. From the pictures sent to us, he might have had a better weekend than his humans! Thanks so much!”
“Cheyenne took great care of our Bruce! He's a Great Dane puppy, around 1 yr (we rescued him), so I was nervous leaving him for the first time. But, she kept us updated daily with photos and how he was doing. I thought his size may cause issues, being a puppy, yet larger than a full grown dog, but she took wonderful care of him and he was TIRED when we got him home! I would highly recommend her!!”
“First time our 5 year old mini daushound spent at a sitters Sophie had a great time! Lisa is attentive to her needs and interested in Sophie being welcomed into her home. Thank you so much for sharing your home with Miss Sophie. Sophie will be coming to visit again.”
“Amanda took excellent care of our Pinky. She cared for her as if she were her own dog. Amanda has a friendly dog who played with Pinky and was great company for her. Amanda has a fenced in yard which allowed Pinky to play outside and enjoy the foot of snow! Amanda administered medicines to Pinky as directed and informed us daily of Pinky’s dietary intake, her general health and happiness as well as sending us daily photos. We were able to enjoy our overseas vacation with no worries since Amanda was taking such excellent care of Pinky. We will definitely ask Amanda to take care of our Pinky in the future. Thank you for being you, Amanda!”
“Angela was great! She responded quickly to messages, sent daily updates with pictures, and our dog had a wonderful time running around with her dog. He came back a tired and happy pup. I would recommend!”

“Olivia took our dog last minute and was so sweet and kind! She communicated well and sent us multiple pictures and updates during the week. Would definitely use her again!”
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs, and then when I was able to I had two large breeds of my own for many years. Currently, we have a 2-yr old Bernese mountain dog and an older cat at home. I’m a teacher with a very open availability during summer and would love to fill it with taking care of your dogs - any breed but happy to provide confidence for high energy larger breeds. I’m a full-time teacher, so if you’re booking during the summer my availability is pretty widely open to meet your pets needs. If it’s during the school year, the weekends are there for loving your pet. I love to walk and exercise and am happy to take your dog for long walks as needed. Alternatively if they’re at my house, they can play with our Bernese Mountain Dog in the backyard for endless hours! Our yard is fenced in and the gates are always locked.
“Heather was great with our dog, Rosie! She sent picture updates each day and gave our dog plenty of exercise. It gave us so much peace of mind to know Rosie was taken care of while we were away--hope we can book with you again, Heather! Thanks for everything.”
“Colleen EXCEEDED our expectations. We were traveling about 3 hours from the detroit area up to traverse city and we booked Colleen to care for our year old Yorkie teddy. We had never met her before but I just knew from looking at her photo that she was a sweet, kind and trusting person. I was absolutely correct. From the second she welcomed us into her house we were so comfortable and we laughed. Even my 1 year old was smiling and laughing with her. She really is incredible. I don't worry about Teddy for one second. She sent updates every day. She was excellent. If I go to traverse city again I will ONLY book Colleen.”
About: I’ve had my own dog since I was 13, and have always had a dog since. My dog is my baby! One of my favorite pastimes is walking my dogs. I currently have 2 dogs. Fresh water always, lots of love, and good quality food/treats and getting outside for potty breaks are so important to me. I work full time day shift during the week. Weekends and evenings are free for me! I would love to drop in and take care of your pet while your away! Pets like their routines and I am totally respectful of that. I can accommodate their particular needs to keep them safe, happy and well cared for!
“Marg was wonderful with our very high demand puppy. She provided lots of pupdates and gave him so many fun opportunities to get his energy out on special adventure walks. I would recommend Marg to anyone.”
“Lulu was VERY well taken care of and spoiled with walks, hugs, kisses, and treats. She returned to us calm and happy. We would highly recommend Lisa and plan on using her services again soon. Awesome experience for us!”
“Beautiful backyard with a puppy cool down pool, lots of space to run under shaded trees. Stephanie & Scott sent pics & videos of puppy playtime & them sleeping together. Very kind humans!”
“Nikki and family did an excellent job taking care of Charlie. They were nice enough to meet up before Charlie’s stay, and they provided updates throughout his stay too. I hope they have Charlie back in the future as well.”

My goal is to treat every pet like my own and keep them safe and well cared for at all times.
“I reached out to Megan as a last minute booking for our two pups. She was able to take them and was even flexible when car trouble made us very late. She sent photos and updates of them while she had them which helped me feel better. Bella and Strawberry, both under 25 lbs, made themselves at home with 100+lb doggies. Bella is still young and had lots of fun playing with the big doggies. She’s also escaped from our house a couple times. Megan’s yard is very secure. I highly recommend Megan to take care of your pups!!!”

“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with my 19 year old cat! My first weekend away in a long time was made very comfortable by her caring for Kitten. I appreciated all her videos, pictures, and messages so much. When I arrived back home, Kitten was happy and so was I. I highly recommend her services and feel like I am now able to travel again, I will definitely be hiring her again!!🐈😻”
About: I have been helping take care of (and acquire, sorry mom and dad!) cats around the neighborhood since I was a kid. I love to see their personalities come to life, and strive to make them feel comfortable and want to show it off. I utilize fear free practices with all my cat encounters & handling, and feel comfortable with all temperments. Cats are especially sensitive to change, and I am confident that I will be able to support and ease your cat while you are away!
“Melissa was a joy to have as a sitter for our shy kitty! (I’m only sad that he wasn’t more social!). She is a great communicator, very conscientious, consistent, and patient. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others or to request a rebook in the future. Thank you so much, Melissa!”
“Breezy was amazing with our kitties! She did a meet and greet with them, in which they immediately gravitated towards her despite them being on the shyer side. She was patient and understanding of our more finicky cat and provided thorough updates during each check in about how much they ate, toileting, and behavior. She also played with them and gave them love at each visit. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask her again to watch our kitties :)”
“Marissa took great care of our two cats during our weekend away. She charmed even our shy kitty during the intro visit and gave us the peace of mind that they’d have good company while we were away. Thank you Marissa for treating our babies like your own!”
“Kristen was so great! She left fabulous notes about her visits and my cats seemed very content and well cared for. She drove very far to take care of my kitties and so couldn’t be more grateful”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats since I was a little kid! I love all animals but have had mostly dogs and cats all my life. I have experience in training my own dogs from puppies into senior dogs and they were spoiled rotten every step of the way. I am currently working a part time very flexible job. I have plenty of time to come walk or play with dogs or feed or spoil and take care of them any way they need. I am only available to care for pets in the clients home. I am reliable, respectful and responsible and will give all the fun time needed for your fur baby.
“Asia did a fantastic job! Aengus was taken care of with a lot of love and care. I received text and pictures every morning and every evening I always knew that he was happy and enjoying his time with Asia. She followed all instructions to the T and my house was in perfect condition when I came home. She even did her own sheets, which I did not expect her to do. I would be very happy to employ her services again I recommend her highly!”
“Took on my absolute last minute booking with a level head, introduced my kitten to her other cats so that soon they were nice and chummy. I can tell Limbo was well taken care of. Thanks so much!”
About: I’m a reliable and easygoing cat and dog sitter who really likes being around animals, especially cats. I’ve had both for over 10 years, so I’m used to their different personalities and how they act. I know cats need a calm and comfortable space, and I make sure they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I also have caregiving experience, which has helped me be patient and responsible. I’m happy to take dogs on walks and play with them too, but I always make sure every pet is well taken care of. I follow instructions and keep good communication so you can trust your pet is in good hands.
“Jordan was wonderful! She provided a very safe environment for my kitty while I was away. My kitty was safe along with me having peace of mind that she was in good hands! Jordan provided an update every day with no issues! Thank you so so much! I would absolutely recommend 🙂”
About: Hi there! I've always had a pet in the house, from fish and hamsters to dogs and cats. I'm comfortable with breeds of all sizes (German Shepherds are my favorite!). I've cared for sick and aging pets before, and follow vet instructions to a T. In the past I've helped a family friend's labradoodle learn to walk appropriately on a leash after attending puppy school with my own dog. I recently started a full-time job with typical office hours, so I'm generally available in the evenings during the week and all day Saturdays. I'm always willing to work with pet parents to make sure that their pet is cared for and will adjust my schedule to fit them in when possible! I'm a morning person, so if your pup likes early walks, I'm your gal! I always inform pet parents as early as possible if my schedule changes and will work with them to ensure their pet is safe and healthy. I always follow pet parent instructions and advice on caring for their pet. I understand that all fur babies have different needs, preferences, and personalities, and work to adapt my approach to pet care to make them feel happy and comfortable.

I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups and take them for long walks. I live by several trails that I take my own pup to often. I own my own house and have a large backyard with a dog run. There are also several trails near by that I’d love to take your dog to!

I love to walk and hike, live close to the TART trail, and would enjoy the company of a furry friend. Walking trails are just outside my door, and I have space for crates and your furry friend's toys or their own special bed and blanket if preferred for their care and comfort.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have hands on experience for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities! Growing up, my mom trained dogs professionally, which gave me early experience to dog behavior and proper pet care. Throughout high school, I regularly helped care for up to 10 dogs at a time, assisting with daily routines, exercise, feeding, and general care. I also grew up with a cat, and have always loved spending time with cats just as much as dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level, and I strive to make them feel safe and comfortable in yalls home. During college, I worked as a nanny for a family and was responsible for walking and caring for their two Great Danes. This experience gave me great confidence in handling larger breeds, and reminded me how important it is to be consistent and reliable. I bring responsibility, attention to detail, and genuine care to every pet I work with. Whether it’s a walk, a drop in visit, or overnight care, I will treat your pet just like family and provide you with updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8AM-5PM at the Community Mental Health in downtown Traverse City, but have some flexibility. I am available for dog walks and drop in visits for an hour any time between 12PM-2PM during the week. I am available from 5:30PM-11 PM Monday-Friday, and have open availability on Saturdays and Sundays. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved family member is a big decision, and I take it seriously. When caring for pets in their own home, I strive to keep their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, or just spending quality time together, I know that consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their parents are away. I am always respectful of clients’ homes and will always follow care instructions carefully. I pay close attention to detail, keep doors and gates secure, monitor pets, and communicate promptly if any concerns arise. My goal is to give you and your pet a stress free experience and peace of mind that comes from knowing they are being care for by someone dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in their wellbeing. Every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care.
About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I’m naturally nurturing and currently in school pursuing a career in nursing, so caring for others comes naturally to me. Since I was young, I’ve had a strong connection with animals and enjoy building bonds with pets of all ages and personalities. I’ve trained my pets and I currently have a cat and a dog of my own. My dream is to one day have a farm filled with animals! Spending time with pets is something I truly love. I would be honored to care for your furry family members and provide them with plenty of love, attention, and companionship while you're away. I am available Monday through Sunday various times and for overnight stays if needed. I am in the TC area until the end of August. I am happy to work with a family and all your needs for care. I always keep a pet's safety and care as my number one priority. My kitty and dog are my world, and I would treat other animals the same way I treat my own. I would be sure to keep them fed. loved and nurtured while they are in my care.
About: Cat person for life. I currently have four, as well as an Australian shepherd. I used to travel a lot for work, so I understand how stressful it can be making sure the four legged babies have everything they need when away. I’m here to help any way I can, whether it’s giving a medication or helping with the potty stuff! I recently left a demanding corporate job and currently am very flexible - morning, evening, during the week or on the weekend! **Due to several issues with owners not being on time for drop off or pick up, I want to add that when accepting a booking, the time is very important as well as the day as other appointments may be on my schedule that day. It is very important that the drop off and pick up times selected are accurate for smooth transitions.** I would care for the pet as instructed by the owner. I understand all animals have their own personality and preferences and their owners know best. I also want the owners to feel comfortable knowing their pet is in good hands while they are away!
“Tabitha is been walking my 85 year old mother's labradoodle for about a month. Tabitha has been very kind to my mother and has taken great care of Cocoa. I always get updates about their walks and what business Cocoa has done. Tabitha has also been very dependable through the sub-zero weather we have had this winter. She always shows up with a smile and is happy to be there.”
“Grace has been great with my almost 6 month old puppy Scout! She makes sure he gets the playtime he needs in the middle of the day. Grace is very trustworthy and would recommend her for watching your furry animals!”

“Jennifer is amazing! She went way above and beyond to make sure that my nervous, timid dog got to know her and was comfortable with her. She was very kind and loving to my dog, on time, and very professional. I got plenty of pictures and updates so I didn't have to worry about anything. I'm so glad that my first experience using Rover or a dog walker service went so well. I'm really happy and highly recommend Jennifer.”

“Olivia took our dog last minute and was so sweet and kind! She communicated well and sent us multiple pictures and updates during the week. Would definitely use her again!”
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs, and then when I was able to I had two large breeds of my own for many years. Currently, we have a 2-yr old Bernese mountain dog and an older cat at home. I’m a teacher with a very open availability during summer and would love to fill it with taking care of your dogs - any breed but happy to provide confidence for high energy larger breeds. I’m a full-time teacher, so if you’re booking during the summer my availability is pretty widely open to meet your pets needs. If it’s during the school year, the weekends are there for loving your pet. I love to walk and exercise and am happy to take your dog for long walks as needed. Alternatively if they’re at my house, they can play with our Bernese Mountain Dog in the backyard for endless hours! Our yard is fenced in and the gates are always locked.
“Heather was great with our dog, Rosie! She sent picture updates each day and gave our dog plenty of exercise. It gave us so much peace of mind to know Rosie was taken care of while we were away--hope we can book with you again, Heather! Thanks for everything.”
About: I’ve had my own dog since I was 13, and have always had a dog since. My dog is my baby! One of my favorite pastimes is walking my dogs. I currently have 2 dogs. Fresh water always, lots of love, and good quality food/treats and getting outside for potty breaks are so important to me. I work full time day shift during the week. Weekends and evenings are free for me! I would love to drop in and take care of your pet while your away! Pets like their routines and I am totally respectful of that. I can accommodate their particular needs to keep them safe, happy and well cared for!
“Marg was wonderful with our very high demand puppy. She provided lots of pupdates and gave him so many fun opportunities to get his energy out on special adventure walks. I would recommend Marg to anyone.”
“Lulu was VERY well taken care of and spoiled with walks, hugs, kisses, and treats. She returned to us calm and happy. We would highly recommend Lisa and plan on using her services again soon. Awesome experience for us!”
“Beautiful backyard with a puppy cool down pool, lots of space to run under shaded trees. Stephanie & Scott sent pics & videos of puppy playtime & them sleeping together. Very kind humans!”
“Nikki and family did an excellent job taking care of Charlie. They were nice enough to meet up before Charlie’s stay, and they provided updates throughout his stay too. I hope they have Charlie back in the future as well.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have experience caring for multiple pets in my home and around family pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel comfortable and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have experience caring for pets throughout my life, so I’m used to building feeding, cleaning, and check in times into my day. I’m able to take care of pets anytime on the days I put. I make sure to stay consistent with each pet’s schedule and give them reliable care and attention every visit. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for both dogs and cats. I make sure all doors and windows are secure and that the space is free from anything unsafe. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks for dogs, litter box care for cats, and any specific instructions from the owner. I always supervise pets while they are in my care and make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and keep them safe and well cared for at all times.
“I reached out to Megan as a last minute booking for our two pups. She was able to take them and was even flexible when car trouble made us very late. She sent photos and updates of them while she had them which helped me feel better. Bella and Strawberry, both under 25 lbs, made themselves at home with 100+lb doggies. Bella is still young and had lots of fun playing with the big doggies. She’s also escaped from our house a couple times. Megan’s yard is very secure. I highly recommend Megan to take care of your pups!!!”
“Daniel took excellent care of our collie Emma. He gave us daily updates. We particularly liked the fact that he took her (and his own two dogs) for walks multiple times daily. Will definitely use his services again!”
“Lorretta was wonderful! She was so communicative, sent lots of pictures and made sure my pup was safe and happy. She made sure our dog ate his meals, took him on plenty of walks, and included him in her day to day activities. We were visiting from out of state for a family reunion and were unable to have our dog stay with us. She was so accommodating and let us stop by multiple times to take our dog on day trips. Finding Lorretta allowed us to have our pup be apart of our vacation which was so important to us. We will 100% be using her in future years when visiting Traverse City!”
“Sally was great with my pup! Very flexible with my schedule. Lot’s of update pictures and her pups got along great with mine! She took my dog on lots of walks and took great care of him. Highly recommend!”
