Personalized care for your dog or cat - Ainger
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Ainger
“Taya was able to fit not one, but our THREE dogs in very last minute when another river sitter cancelled on us the night before our booking. She very quickly picked up on their 3 distinct personalities and gave them exactly the amount of love, attention, and play time they needed. She sent us a ton of pics and videos from the weekend that left us assured they were feeling right at home so we didn’t have to worry about them and could enjoy the wedding we were in town for. If we were locals, we would absolutely pick her for any dog sitting needs we had. Cannot recommend highly enough!”
“I am so extremely thankful for Kelli and the great care Mickie was given! Absolutely amazing, I will ALWAYS book will Kelli!!! Communication was A++++ and I got messages and pictures throughout our trip, I was so thankful for that! Absolutely the BEST!”
“Jackie is very sweet and kind. She took wonderful care of Luna for 10 days while we were away. She was very responsive to messages and sent pictures to show us how Luna was doing. I'll definitely call on Jackie again in the future.”
“Teddy had a great time with Deb and her puppies. Very nice play area for the dogs. Would recommend her to anyone that is looking for boarding for a day or two or even a week long. She communicates and sends u pics. Thanks again Deb.”
“I highly recommend James, he watched our two kitties for an extended period. He gave them a dedicated room because they are not used to dogs and gave them plenty of attention. His communication was excellent and he shared pictures and updates regularly. I felt very confident about our pets' safety and comfort at his place. Thank you again, James!!”
“I had a great experience! She was kind, professional, and took excellent care of Gerald. She sent regular photo updates and even kept him a bit longer than originally planned, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Our fur babies enjoyed there stay with Katlynn. They were all taken very well care of and Katlynn was easy and amazing to work with! Would Def recommend Katlynn for caring for the fur babies and will most definitely be back again.”
“The perfect sitter for an anxious fur baby. Heavan put both my dog and myself at ease giving multiple updates with pictures while I was out of town for a night. My extremely anxious pooch settled right in which allowed me to enjoy my night away without worry.”
“Kasey and her family are incredible, the communication and videos of our boy Mack throughout the stay were very comforting. They treated Mack like one of their own. Would highly recommend.”
“Larry was awesome! He had my lil Maggie for almost two weeks we were just passing through and had car trouble and he extended her stay on the fly for us. When I picked her up she was so happy! If I need a dog boarder again I will definitely call Larry.”
About: A calm, loving home with a fenced yard—and 30 years of real dog experience to back it up. Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. Two years ago, I lost my beloved shepherd. While that was incredibly hard, it inspired me to open my home and heart to other dogs. Since then, I’ve been caring for dogs for family and friends, as well as volunteering with foster dogs—helping them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they wait for their forever homes. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore, and I don’t have any pets of my own right now. That means your dog gets my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment—perfect for dogs who prefer their own space or need a little extra comfort. I treat every dog like they’re my own and tailor care to their unique personality—whether that’s active playtime, relaxing companionship, or a steady routine. You can count on me to provide a safe, loving, and dependable home filled with attention, affection, and plenty of tail wags. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be home often and adjust my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be part of a calm, structured, and caring environment. I provide a calm, safe, and loving home where dogs feel relaxed and happy. They get potty breaks, playtime, and fenced-yard fun, and if I’m at work, crating is never more than 4 hours, with breaks on lunch or as needed. With no other pets at home, your dog gets plenty of one-on-one attention and care like family.
“Amber took care of my senior cock-a-poo for the day. He is an old guy with issues (deaf, anxiety) and she seemed unfazed by his challenges. I found Amber to be very pleasant and kind, and she and her child are clearly animal lovers! I always worry about my dog staying with anyone, but I felt comfortable leaving him with her. Thank you, Amber!”
“Hayley has watched my puppers before and Iroh always comes back happy and suckered out from playing with her two dogs. He loves it there. Hayley is also so kind, working with me on a new pickup time when my original pickup time proved difficult. Thanks for the flexibility, Hayley!”
“Dogs were very well taken care of and seemed happy when we picked them up. They sent updates and pictures during their weekend stay. We will definitely use them in the future.”
“They have watched our dog for a while now and have him quite often. He is always so well cared for and honestly depressed when he has to leave 😂 it’s great know he is somewhere he loves and is cared for.”
About: I was raised with Cocker Spaniels my entire life and continue the tradition in my own home with having had 5 . I love dogs of all breeds but would not be able to take a large breed dog. My backyard is 100% fenced . I have the ability to leash or walk your dog for its outside needs if that’s what you prefer. I have a medical background for 45 years so I can administer medications of all kinds. I am retired so I am home 99% of the time so I would be available for your pets needs. I have a reliable car if any emergencies were to happen. I am just starting this side business and hope to provide some loving care to your dog. My back yard is fully fenced. I have one very friendly cocker spaniel . I have a separate space for your animal if needed. My yard is fully fenced. See previous description.
“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”
“Shawnia was the best pet sitter ever. Seven really enjoyed herself and she made me feel at ease during my whole trip by sending me pictures and updates. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much.”

“Anna has watched our cat multiple times. She is always responsive and communicates well. Our cat needs insulin and she has been very comfortable with the process. She sends pictures and lets me know if there are any concerns. We were lucky to find her as she has allowed our family to feel confident that our cat is taken care of when we are away.”
“Katie is an amazing pet sitter! She is a pet whisperer and got our shy cats to feel comfortable. She is kind and compassionate. Looking forward to having her pet sit again when needed.”
“Taya was outstanding! I could see the 'boys' change from the initial stand offish to enjoying her arrival and playtime with the daily videos. Being in England it was comforting to know they were being well cared for. We will be using Taya for all our future trips.”
“Eden was fabulous! From the parents of a high needs diabetic senior kitty we could not more enthusiastically recommend Eden as a pet sitter and care giver. They went above and beyond our expectations with great reports, pictures, and making sure they understood Finn's needs and care. Thanks Eden, you were awesome!”

I am available most anytime. I will care for your fur babies as if they were my own. They will be well cared for and very happy until their family returns home.
About: Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up around cats, my family rescued a cat in 2017, and I have been caring for my own two cats since 2021. Living with cats has taught me that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and reserved, I will provide patient, loving care and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Ive been required to walk, feed, play with and even give medication to some dogs I’ve worked with who have anxiety and depression. I’m currently working pool so I only have to work 3 days a month and even when working I would only be 15 minutes away so I could easily check in. I have a large fenced in yard and 4 loving dogs to keep your furbaby company while here :) and two large crates that can easily be set up if needed.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old. I have had big and small dogs, rescues and purebreds. My daughter has her own Dog Grooming business & can offer her services here during their stay. We breed and show Collies, both rough and smooth varieties, and have 1 Mini Schnauzer, along with 5 kids. We homeschool, so I am home the majority of most days unless we have co-op classes to go to. We have lots of experience in training and playing with dogs through active participation in 4H Showmanship , Obedience, Rally, & Agility. My daughter and I are hoping to compete in all of the above in AKC events as well. I am comfortable giving oral medication, including sub-q fluids annd/or diabetes shots, and can be shown how to do any other type of medication, as needed. I am a homeschooling Mom, so I am home the majority of most days. We have co-op classes we do attend, but usually are not gone more than 3-4 hours at a time once or twice a week. If we leave the house, all dogs will be crated for their safety and my peace of mind. I am looking for either long term schedules or flexible to help in times of vacations and various excursions in which your dog can not join you. We have 9 acres, set off from the road quite a ways. I have 2 fenced in dog areas in which my Collies run & play when we are not outside with them. We take multiple breaks through out the day to play with dogs, can do walks, ball play, etc. Our Dogs have gotten along with everyone that has come over so far. Our Mini Schnauzer rules the roost in the house. :)
“I feel so much better being at work knowing that my senior dog is getting visited by April in the middle of the day. She takes good care of him and caters to all his weird neuroses that come with being a 16 year old pup. Thank you, April!”
“Donna is fantastic with our 1yr old doberman. We are still doing alot of training with him and it's great knowing that Donna has the same knowledge of training and its being applied while hes in her care. It's also comforting to know that she's use to the large breed dogs and isn't intimidated by them and treats him like her own.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ainger
“A-MAY-ZING My pup had the BEST time at Taya’s! She got lots of playing, and I got lots of pics and video of how much fun she was having. We will definitely be back, and driving from Battle Creek because it’s worth it. Thanks guys!”
“Deb is a true gem! She took such excellent care of my two little dogs and they came home after both days with her with happy faces and tired bodies from playing. My shy girl, Clover even snuggled and took a nap at her house! AMAZING sitter, highly recommend Deb. She has a house designed for pups and a beautiful, peaceful and huge backyard. She's home most of the time and just treats your dogs with genuine love and sweetness. I am moving too far to use her services again, but sad to say so, because our experience with her was just absolutely perfect. There may be sitters in the Battle Creek area that charge less, but having tried them with very mixed results - I assure you Deb is worth every penny!”
“Kelli took care of both of our Labradors for a long, snowy day, and she was wonderful! Great communication and fun photos, and our dogs were so well cared for. It is so reassuring to leave our pups with someone who has so much experience caring for dogs.”
“Julia was so good and did a wonderful job with Gigi. Gigi was so happy and calm when we went Home. I will definitely book her again! Gigi is an older dog and Julia provided the care that made a difference.”
“Danielle and her Alaska Huskies were wonderful! She was fun and helpful and obviously loved my fur babies and set limits so they knew what was acceptable behavior on her turf! She was accommodating as well. One evening my class went overtime. She had no problem keeping my boys until I could be there. She communicated by text to let me know how they were doing each day. She allowed us to visit before our appointed time so my dogs could be introduced to her dogs. Danielle was wonderful! I highly recommend her!!”
“She took on my temperamental old man, and he came home happy! She gave me updates and pictures through the stay, which I really appreciated. Will definitely book again!”
“Larry was spectacular with our Yorkie, princesa. She was happy when I arrived to pick up her. He sent me pictures all the time. She had a great time, and I enjoyed my vacations knowing that she was in good hands!!! Thank you Larry”
“The best!! my lila had a great time, i would recommend using shawnia a million times. communicated very well and kept me updated throughout the day. My girl had a blast and we will definitely be back.”

Now, I didn't go that far, but we do have quite a few lovely dog babies that we love with all our hearts! My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering oral medications or injections.
“My puppy Kona absolutely adores Alice. She has the best set up with a huge fenced in yard and Kona loves getting to play with other dogs! She gets excited as soon as we get in Alice’s neighborhood which is the best compliment I think she can give. Alice is by far the best Rover we’ve ever had and she’ll be hard to live up to if we ever move out of the area. I can’t say enough good things. We love you Alice!! 🐾”
About: I had taken care of dogs of every kind since I was very young. I have relied on me to walked, feed and bathe their pets. I had also trained 2 dogs with some of the sign language as well to teach the animals to sit and stay with the American sign language. My friends and family have relied on me to take their dogs to the dog park, the beach and go on the morning hike. Just really take care of their animals with the love, respect and support for those need my help for them to enjoy their time or a getaway! I'm currently working from home on my own flexible schedule! I do have a lot of time in between working virtually and I can do my job anywhere! So if I take the dogs to the park or go on a walk, I could work on my phone to reply my emails, messages etc. I do have the good balance of taking a break from work to spend the time with the animals to give them my attention and cuddles and go on a walks or adventures! First thing first is to care the animals with respect, love and comfort to be in your home. If I was at your house, I am that person that will follow your wishes and expectations of how you would want me to care for your animals. I do clean up after myself when I am at your house and to keep it tidy clean as you like it to be. I also like to step outside with the dogs/cats to keep my eyes on them or even just being outside with them and play with their toys to give them my joyful attention. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well. I will always ask the owner before assuming or trying things out. I love to meet the animals before starting the whole process to feel it out how the energy goes for us and for your animals too. If it flows great with you, I and your animals then there will be lots of pictures will be shared to you as well!
“Brianna has watched my puppy a few times and naturally, as puppies can be, she was pretty hyper and crazy, but Brianna did such a great job with her and my puppy was so happy when I went to pick her up! She’s very kind and I’ll definitely be using her again?”
“Kasey was very attentive and sent lots of pics and videos while we were away. She was also very flexible about the booking in general. She is very experienced professionally and I was comfortable leaving Bella there. Definitely will be rebooking.”
“Jim & Wendy were great. My three kids loved their visit and were so relaxed when I came to get them. Almost like they didn't want to leave. We definitely will be back!!! ”

I also am currently going to school online, so that helps free my schedule.

I ensure pets stay on their feeding schedules, can administer oral medications responsibly, and adapt to their unique needs—whether that means long walks, playtime, or plenty of cuddles. My goal is to make them feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for.

Animals bring me joy and comfort, I have pet sitted family friends pets, neighbors chickens, and I have also worked in pet retail where I grew my knowledge in animal care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine since I’ve always had animals of my own. I’m currently unemployed, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention, playtime, care, and companionship they deserve while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I believe everything starts with communication and understanding each pet’s normal routine, preferences, and personality. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for by keeping feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions consistent with what they’re used to at home. I also believe in keeping owners updated with messages and photos when needed, so they can feel reassured and connected while they’re away. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care while respecting both the pet and the client’s home.

About: My name is Taylor and I am a 26 year old dog mom who has 3 beautiful fur babies and 8 chickens. I love animals more than most humans and prefer to spend 100% if my time with animals than anyone else. I’ve had just about every pet under the sun and can take care of all types. Dogs, cats, small animals, reptiles, farm animals, amphibians, fish and all other types of exotic animals. I have been in the pet sitting industry since I was 14 years old and have had my own pets since I was 2 years old. I have such a passion to taking care of other animals and love doing it on the side. I’m currently working appointment based part time Tuesday Wednesdays and Friday’s and would love to fill in some gaps in my day and dedicate it to pets. I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life, I can take care of any type of animal and have a lot of knowledge on specific types of animals and their needs.

“Taya was able to fit not one, but our THREE dogs in very last minute when another river sitter cancelled on us the night before our booking. She very quickly picked up on their 3 distinct personalities and gave them exactly the amount of love, attention, and play time they needed. She sent us a ton of pics and videos from the weekend that left us assured they were feeling right at home so we didn’t have to worry about them and could enjoy the wedding we were in town for. If we were locals, we would absolutely pick her for any dog sitting needs we had. Cannot recommend highly enough!”
“I am so extremely thankful for Kelli and the great care Mickie was given! Absolutely amazing, I will ALWAYS book will Kelli!!! Communication was A++++ and I got messages and pictures throughout our trip, I was so thankful for that! Absolutely the BEST!”
“Jackie is very sweet and kind. She took wonderful care of Luna for 10 days while we were away. She was very responsive to messages and sent pictures to show us how Luna was doing. I'll definitely call on Jackie again in the future.”
“I highly recommend James, he watched our two kitties for an extended period. He gave them a dedicated room because they are not used to dogs and gave them plenty of attention. His communication was excellent and he shared pictures and updates regularly. I felt very confident about our pets' safety and comfort at his place. Thank you again, James!!”
“I had a great experience! She was kind, professional, and took excellent care of Gerald. She sent regular photo updates and even kept him a bit longer than originally planned, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Our fur babies enjoyed there stay with Katlynn. They were all taken very well care of and Katlynn was easy and amazing to work with! Would Def recommend Katlynn for caring for the fur babies and will most definitely be back again.”
“Larry was awesome! He had my lil Maggie for almost two weeks we were just passing through and had car trouble and he extended her stay on the fly for us. When I picked her up she was so happy! If I need a dog boarder again I will definitely call Larry.”
About: A calm, loving home with a fenced yard—and 30 years of real dog experience to back it up. Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. Two years ago, I lost my beloved shepherd. While that was incredibly hard, it inspired me to open my home and heart to other dogs. Since then, I’ve been caring for dogs for family and friends, as well as volunteering with foster dogs—helping them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they wait for their forever homes. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore, and I don’t have any pets of my own right now. That means your dog gets my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment—perfect for dogs who prefer their own space or need a little extra comfort. I treat every dog like they’re my own and tailor care to their unique personality—whether that’s active playtime, relaxing companionship, or a steady routine. You can count on me to provide a safe, loving, and dependable home filled with attention, affection, and plenty of tail wags. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be home often and adjust my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be part of a calm, structured, and caring environment. I provide a calm, safe, and loving home where dogs feel relaxed and happy. They get potty breaks, playtime, and fenced-yard fun, and if I’m at work, crating is never more than 4 hours, with breaks on lunch or as needed. With no other pets at home, your dog gets plenty of one-on-one attention and care like family.
“Amber took care of my senior cock-a-poo for the day. He is an old guy with issues (deaf, anxiety) and she seemed unfazed by his challenges. I found Amber to be very pleasant and kind, and she and her child are clearly animal lovers! I always worry about my dog staying with anyone, but I felt comfortable leaving him with her. Thank you, Amber!”
“Hayley has watched my puppers before and Iroh always comes back happy and suckered out from playing with her two dogs. He loves it there. Hayley is also so kind, working with me on a new pickup time when my original pickup time proved difficult. Thanks for the flexibility, Hayley!”
“As usual, great service by Alice! I love the daily updates and pictures. I know Copper is safe and being well cared for. Hands down, best dog care I’ve found for Copper so far! Thanks Alice!”
“Olivia was AWESOME! She sent daily updates with pictures! She took great care of our beloved dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone! I will definitely use her again.”
“Danielle was amazing with my senior[16] blind husky. All of her huskies are well trained and played very well with my dog. Danielle is very knowledgeable and I trust her to watch my senior husky with no worry. My dog tends to shut down around other people and completely ignore other dogs. When I picked her up she was very happy and playful with the other huskies after a couple days with them”
“Shadow has stayed with Brooke several times over the Summer. The most recent was this past weekend when I had an unexpected death in my family. Brooke and her husband, Ben, have told us that they enjoy having him, and they were very kind to take him without much notice this time. When I dropped Shadow off, Ben came out on the porch and Shadow ran right to him with his tail wagging! This was a great testimony from Shadow because he sometimes wants nothing to do with other men. When Brooke sends pictures of Shadow stretched out, relaxed and happy on their living room floor, I know that he is feeling extremely comfortable and happy. This always means so much, particularly this weekend when I was dealing with a very stressful family situation. I know that Shadow is always getting the best care and a lot of love from Brooke, Ben and Tobi and Buddy. He is actually going back again in a couple of days for a 5-day stay that has been planned for a while. Once again I will be able to feel relaxed and not worry about him while I'm gone. Thank you so much Brooke and Ben!”
“Brianna's profile met all what we desired in a sitter; location, a family, large fenced yard, has always worked from home and years of experience with dogs. Once we had our meet-and-greet, there was no doubt, Brianna was a good choice for both of us.”
