“Michelle was amazing with our 1 year old Lab and we knew she was in good hands for the holiday weekend as soon as we met her! She most definitely is a dog lover, great with communication, sent wonderful pictures and provided welcome feedback. We will most certainly use her again next time we are in her area.”

“We were beyond pleased with our experience with Megan from beginning to end! ! She was very responsive upon requesting to book a stay- even offering a meet and greet! She, as well as her home, is very welcoming! Kept us well informed with updates, photos and videos while we were away- always ensuring us that Macie was in good hands and being well cared for! We especially loved and appreciated Macie’s report card! :) We highly recommend Megan and will definitely be using her again for future bookings! Thank you Megan! We appreciate you so much!!”

“Cindy was amazing. I wish we lived closer so we could used her all the time. We told her our dog had accidents and she was very understanding and accommodating. She has a nice back yard and let our dog our often. We could tell our dog was very loved when we came back to pick her up.”

“Kelsey and her family made my pups feel at home the weekend they spent with them. They had never boarded before so I was nervous. She was very reassuring and communicative when I would text to inquire how they were. The dogs were safe and loved there. We would recommend Kelsey and her family as great place for your pet to stay.”
“Morgan watched my dog for 4 nights while we were out of town and it was so nice knowing that Louie was safe and happy while we were away - the pictures and videos she sent made it obvious he was in good hands and having fun. We will DEFINITELY use her services again.”
“Madison is amazing!! I’ve never felt comfortable leaving my dog at a boarding facility because of his anxiety. Not only does Madison keep me up to date with what they are doing, but she sends pictures and videos! I know he’s in excellent hands with Madison, and will keep returning as long as she will be doing rover!”
“We had our pet sitter cancel last minute. My husband discovered Rover.com and found Christina. We were so excited that she was in our neighborhood and had great reviews. I felt comfortable when I met her and the drop off process was easy. She stayed in communication the 3 days, sent pictures and updates. We will definitely be using her services in the future and will recommend her to everyone we know.”

I try my best to exercise the dogs while they are with me weather dependent.

“Gina was a lifesaver!! She was able to help us while we traveled for the holidays (and I forgot to schedule our Rover ahead of time. Gina was able to commit and we did a video introduction of my cats, home and daily pet visit process. Gina was timely, thorough and gave extra time and attention to our fur babies, especially our more shy cat. I recommend Gina with high marks- she is a kind and professional pet caregiver. Kari”
“Shawna was so kind and attentive to my girl Athena! She even watered some plants she noticed were dry!! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for pet care :) This was my first time using rover so I was nervous but it truly couldn't have worked out better!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and have helped with whelping, shots, to finding them new homes. I have trained dogs also! I will always treat them as my own and they will be well socialized. I am currently working full time at a family owned business. I am free from Friday-Sunday every weekend. I can take smaller dog with me to work (30#) or less. I have 30 wooded acres in the country. I have a large yard, not fenced but have a wireless collar system if I need to use it. I have a 4 year old chocolate lab neutered male, he is very playful and loves other dogs. I have 3 kids ages 10,7,2. Who I have taught to respect all animals and know the responsibility of taken care of them. I am willing to meet to pick up and drop off also.
“Did excellent going out of the way through out the day to check on the cats for a few hours! Kept up with communication and sent many pictures and videos that we really appreciated!”
“We had Taylor come in for several drop in visits to care for our cat while we were gone for a long weekend. She made sure he was fed and litter box cleaned. She always sent pictures of him, which was really awesome! Her communication is great and fast! I would highly recommend Taylor!”
“Kumar was absolutely wonderful with my two cats! I was especially nervous about leaving because one of them, Relic, is a formerly feral girl who’s very shy with new people. (Beezle, my other cat, is a social butterfly—toss him a treat and he’s instantly your best friend.) But Kumar handled Relic’s quirks with so much patience and care. He came by twice a day, sent me photos and videos every visit, and never hesitated to check in if he had questions. His communication was fantastic, and he totally put my mind at ease. If I need a sitter again, I’ll be crossing my fingers that Kumar’s available—he did an amazing job, and I’m so grateful!”
About: The most experience I have with cats is from having two of my own. I raised one since she was a few months old or so. She’s about 4 years old now. I have roughly 4 years or more of cat experience. I still have more to learn with cats and I’m learning every day with my cats at home.
About: I can administer medication, I’m known as a cat whisperer in my hospitals. I have a patience for cats, they are independent free spirits that secretly love to give and demand love. I’m all for it!

“Persephone had so much fun at Wanda's house. She would get excited to go every morning for day care and Wanda's Tripp is a sweetheart. Whenever I'm back in Cadillac I'll contact Wanda.”

About: My passion is dogs. I have one doggie right now. She loves other dogs. I have done rescues for years and my joy is too see a doggie get adopted out. I once put my dog in a daycare and thank goodness there were cameras to watch her. She was terrified, so I will never do that again. It's hard to find a good place for your dog to stay if you can't take them with you. This is why I want to pursue being with Rover.com, so I can help pet owners be at ease when they have to leave their pets. Please consider me! You won't be disappointed. I love big, medium and small sized dogs. I want you go enjoy your time and know your doggie is in good hands. I am retired, so I am available at all times. I love watching dogs. I truly communicate with doggies so well. I would ask you give me a chance. I walk them on a leash. I also will pet sit at your house. I will crate them if need be. You will find I am one of the best pet sitters.
“Stephanie was very kind and helpful in watching my pup while I attended a wedding. As advertised, she has a really great property and her pups are very sweet. Stephanie cares about them a lot and is clearly an animal lover. She was great in sending me some photos of their day and was very pleasant to talk with. Would recommend to others and would certainly return if ever needed in the future!”
“Sally was very welcoming to our two dogs. She communicated with us well and we appreciate having our dogs well taken care of while we toured the area. Would take them to Sally again!”
“Christina is definitely a pet lover who cares! Our dog felt right at home the moment we set foot in her home and had a wonderful time. We will certainly use Christina whenever we are in the Stanwood area!”
About: I have many years experience with cats, even wild bred cats. But due to having two cats myself, I am not taking any cats for boarding. Maybe interested in stopping by and feeding and cleaning litters I am currently working but my husband is home 100% of the time and kids are also here that love playing with animals, bathing them, and taking them for walks. We have a fenced in backyard where we have a dog ourselves that is a mixed breed dog that has been introduced to many other animals and has never been anything but excited to have a pail.

About: Hi there! I am Gina - self proclaimed animal advocate and lover. I am very involved in the rescue world which means I am well-versed in animal language and their needs. I had many fosters through various rescues and have 2 dogs, 1 cat, and a bunny of my own. I am a believer in positive reinforcement which means I will treat your animals with respect and never use adverse methods. I believe in treating pets with kindness in every interaction. I have a more ‘difficult’ dog myself which took very patient training to get him to even be able to go outside. With this experience, I know how to handle dogs that may be more reactive on a leash or take a gentle hand to guide them. I also have a very well-rounded pup so I feel I have seen both ends of the spectrum! My pup also has a neurological disorder, so I am comfortable with special needs dogs as well. I pet sit for all my rescue friends, and for some of them I am one of few that they trust. As a child, I dreamed of being a vet, and although that was not my career path, I still find joy in being around animals. I also volunteer for animal non profits when ever I can. I take close measures to make sure animals are safe and comfortable when I’m around and would be honored to be trusted with your fur baby ❤️ I also am available for CAT drop-ins! 🐱 I work from home 9-5 M-F and with advanced notice can flex my schedule to accommodate drop ins or walks. My schedule should be up to date with vacations. For in-home stays during the weeks, I would ask that you can set me up with WiFi connection so I can work while I’m there! I will follow any instructions given to me to best ensure your pet feels comfortable. I will take precautions to make sure that the animal is never at risk of flight, and will communicate if needed. I am extra careful to ensure the pet is safely indoors before departing and triple check locks for peace of mind. As mentioned in my profile, I am a positive reinforcement advocate so I WILL NOT use adverse methods such as prong collars, electric shock collars, etc. If this is something you use for your dog, I’m afraid we won’t be a good fit!
“Shawna. I can’t thank you enough for your energy, confidence and overall amazing personality! Thanks for helping me out in a bind, being flexible, and so understanding of my dear yet anxious pup. Appreciate you and would definitely hire again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for decades. I would love the opportunity to watch your pets. I do have a dog of my own. I am retired so I have plenty of time to watch your pets. Give me a try. I’m looking g forward to it. Thank you. I have one small dog named Gracie. I would walk your dog on a leash. Attention given to your pet. Thank you for your business.
“Brittany was prompt and reliable. She did not seem at all turned off by my two dogs’ energy level and ‘enthusiasm’ (including jumping) when she met them. I believe she did a great job exercising them. They seemed relaxed and settled when I returned home. I appreciated how well she kept in contact and the pictures she sent!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 13 both small and large. Family members and family friends have relied on me to make sure that their furry companions get the care that they need. I also have experience handling senior dogs and giving medication if needed. I currently have open availability for rover requests up until end of June then school starts so I’ll have open availability Thursday-Sunday and will be in school from 8:30am-4:30pm Monday-Wednesday. For any booking requests depending on the duration of time I ask please book a week in advance:) Whether it's checking in, caring for your pet in your home, or just helping them get in their exercise I will ensure that they are watched after promptly! For walking services there are plenty of areas ear me I can take them for walks or to just have fun at. Check-ins will be on time and thoroughly communicated with owners. Any house sitting I ensure frequent updates to ease any worries an owner may have.
“Taylor was amazing! Yesterday was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about my pup being home alone... Taylor called me at work (per my request) so that I could go over how to get into my house, etc. and she calmed my nerves too :) when she got there, he had tore up his mattress pad in his kennel- she cleaned it up so that he couldn’t eat it. She then walked him, took pictures for me and played with him enough to tire him out for a bit. She was so good with him anc it was so appreciated! ❤️❤️”
About: ’ve had hands-on experience caring for animals for many years. Since around age 12, I’ve regularly helped care for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors. During that time I’ve provided feeding, walking, bathing, pet sitting, playtime, and general daily care. I also have experience helping with basic training and working with dogs who were preparing for adoption, which helped me learn how to work with different personalities, energy levels, and comfort needs. Most recently, I’ve been volunteering at a local animal shelter for over 4 months. In this role, I assist with a variety of responsibilities including walking dogs, bathing, playtime and enrichment, administering medications when needed, transporting animals, and helping with overall animal care at the shelter. Working with animals in both home and shelter environments has given me experience with pets of different temperaments, and I always focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always do my best to provide reliable, attentive care. If you’re looking for someone dependable who genuinely cares about animals, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I’m currently in an on call sort of situation, so my schedule is very flexible! I ask that we at least get a few days advance notice due to a fluctuating schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. Through my experience caring for pets and volunteering at a local animal shelter, I’ve worked with animals of many different temperaments and understand the importance of patience, awareness, and safe handling. I always make sure pets are secure on walks, monitored during playtime, and given plenty of attention and care. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have for feeding, medications, routines, or training. I believe communication is very important, so I’m glad to send updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
