Personalized care for your dog or cat - Brooklyn
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Brooklyn
“The absolute best!! Nothing but great things to say about Rodney and his care of our 2 big dogs. We appreciated the meet and greet beforehand (signs of a responsible owner) and how he slowly introduced his pack to our dogs instead of all at once. We received simple daily updates, and his responsiveness is always quick. We will be using Rodney for all our care needs.”
“I would have Christine watch our baby again. She was the first person to ever watch our baby. She took good care of Willie G and made sure we stayed informed of him and his daily activities. He was in a home with a very caring family. Christine made us feel at ease while we were gone. Pictures meant alot.”
“Caroline was a fantastic and caring house for our dog! She has a wonderful, large fenced-in yard for the dogs to run and play. She also sends multiple video updates each day. She clearly loves dogs and shows them lots of affection!”
“We had an excellent experience with Brooklyn taking care of our dogs! Brooklyn is trustworthy, professional and truly loves animals. Knowing they were so well cared for helped us relax on our trip. We will definitely use Brooklyn again and highly recommend her.”
“What an amazing 1st visit my little guy had with Skip and Mary!! He even got to meet a little friend during his daily (and multiple) walks (Miss Gracie) and they were like two peas in a pod. He was pampered and cared for just like he was their own. Beautiful stay and will definitely be back.”
“This was Wes's 3rd time with Coddy and Byron and, per usual, it was a great experience all around! We received regular updates/pictures of Wes finding household bones, playing with their dogs, and making himself a regular guest. Coddy and Byron were super responsive to messages. Highly recommend and Wes will certainly be staying with them in the future!”
“Best sitter ever! Great person. Took great care and sent plenary pics. Really loves animals. I recommend her to anybody that loves there pet. She loves them like her own kids!”
“Very responsive to messages! I appreciated the pictures of our dog while they were there and could see how happy Coco was being there! Thank you again! An absolute pleasure and will definitely book again if needed!”
“There is a reason why Catherine is a Star Sitter on Rover, and we experienced that amply while boarding our 5-year-old Husky and 16-year-old senior Bichon with her for three nights. Both our dogs require medicines and special care, and with Catherine, they got it reliably and wholeheartedly. She took the time to understand our care instructions and went above and beyond our expectations. She asked questions, kept us closely posted, and was supported strongly by her husband and family, all avid dog lovers who provided a secure and loving environment for our pets. When we picked up our dogs, they seemed relaxed and happy. We'd rate Catherine higher than five stars if we could!”
“Highly recommend Amber! Our dogs looked so happy each time she sent pictures or videos, she has a great fenced in yard for them to run around in and even allows dogs on furniture and beds. Hands down my dogs favorite part I’m sure! Her sweet daughter even bought my dogs a toy, they love their new “baby”. Thank you Amber!!”
“Oscar took great care of Frankie and was an excellent and fast communicator from pre-booking through our entire stay. Will definitely yes Oscar whenever we go out of town. She was in such good hands and we loved the daily pics/videos”
“We had an absolutely great experience leaving our dog with Darcy and Dan for a full week. From the start, they were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and easy to communicate with, which immediately put us at ease. They sent us daily updates and photos, which we really appreciated, and it was clear our dog was happy and well cared for. Even with cold weather, they made the effort to play with her and keep her energy levels in check. When it got too cold outside, they were thoughtful and flexible, making adjustments to ensure she was still comfortable and getting the attention she needed. Their yard is a great size—good for a high-energy dog—and it was obvious they genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs they care for. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would absolutely trust them again in the future. We highly recommend Darcy and Dan to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitters!”
“Marianna took excellent care of Ebony and Calypso, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She provided regular updates along with amazing photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from everything she shared that they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciated her attention to detail and the level of care she showed my dogs. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Katie and Kristen were so attentive to Ziggy. They sent alot of pictures, and we could tell Ziggy was getting such great care. Ziggy is normally so happy to come home, but this time we think she kinda missed being at their house!!! Thank you Katie and Kristen!”
“Tucker stayed with April for ten days. April made the process easy for us. We did a meet n greet. She was quick to respond and provided daily pics/videos of our fur baby. We will def check with her next time we are in need of doggy care. thanks so much!”

“Allison did a great job taking care of our two cats. She followed instructions for them and gave them attention. They seemed happy and unstressed when we arrived home.”
“Susanna and Erick continue to provide great care for our cat each time we book! We appreciate their great communication and picture updates, and they water our garden/take in our mail each time. So grateful to know our house and Calvin are safe while we're gone. Thanks for everything!”
About: I have been a cat owner since 2020 and understand the concerns many cat parents have when trusting a sitter in their home. I am happy to provide references, and my own well-cared-for pets reflect my dedication to responsible and compassionate care.
“Aveline has been very helpful! She is an excellent communicator, asked good questions and took cute pictures of our pets while we were away. She really cares and did an excellent job. We highly recommend Aveline!”
“Renae was amazing! She checked in on our cat Lilo over a long weekend and went above and beyond to make sure she was cared for. Renae was super communicative, kind, and trustworthy! Highly recommend booking her for any pet care needs!”
“Brittany, is amazing!!! She took great care of our Bullet. She sent photos daily and let me know he was fed and happy with every visit. Brittany, will definitely be hired for future vacations. Thanks Brittany!!!!”
About: Hi there, I’m Brittany. Animals make me happy. When I see a pet, I see a child. They are a member of the family. They have the sweetest souls and biggest hearts and I wouldn’t treat them any other way. I have one dog and I was raised with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. Every day I take my dog on at least one walk and many times I walk him multiple times per day. I treat my fur babies like family and how I would want to be treated. I am not only here to help you during your busy schedule but to become a friend to you and your fur baby. To house sit during longer durations, I can travel to anywhere. I would need to bring my golden retriever with me if your pets like to socialize and make new friends, he loves other dogs and gets along with them great, he is very social and has been to many dog parks and households with pets, if not I may be able to find someone to take care of him for me during that time. For drop in visits, I can assist on my own or bring my dog for some company. I am also available on certain days for doggy day care and boarding. When I have a dog stay with me I treat that dog like my own and it would have an amazing friend to play with. Pets are allowed on furniture, I have treats, toys, tons of dog beds, and a fenced in yard. I will also take your dog out on walks and play fetch or tug to burn energy. If you choose to book me, thank you for trusting me and I won’t disappoint you! My schedule is very flexible, and I would love to help accommodate what you need help with, whether that is daily or weekly. I am always picking up new work bookings. I have booked a lot off of rover so I have additional referrals if you would like them! I will treat your animals and home as if it were my own, with love, trust, and respect. I have helped out for many years taking care of people's pets and homes. I have many references.
About: I currently have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own and love helping care for other animals. I have experience with high energy dogs, as well as senior cats and dogs. I am now a young 40 something mom and professional who has had pets my entire life! I LOVE animals! I am typically available to provide care in the evenings and weekends, sometimes at lunchtime depending on location, and for extended vacation stays. I only care for other pets in their own homes so I take guidance from you and your pet. Tell me what preferences you have and what your pet's routine is and I will follow that. :)

Perfect for high energy dogs - Brooklyn
“I was super nervous before dropping off my Ollie but once I met Rodney and talked to him, my nerves were calmed. He made sure to give me updates throughout the day and sent me pictures of guy max'in and relax'in. I will for sure be using him again”
About: I will love and care for your furry friends as I do my own. I've owned dogs my whole life and my family would say it's a passion I've never fulfilled (but will be thanks to rover!) I've owned all size breeds so teacup or a small horse, I've got you covered! I am a Navy Veteran and current full-time student at the University of Michigan and my husband works from home 100% of the time. Your pups will never be left unsupervised. We have two other dogs in the home who love having guests and making new friends. Feedings can take place whenever you deem necessary for you! We have a ton of treats (SCHNACKS) ready to spoil and pamper your puppers as we do our own. I live on 7 acres of land in a private community, and have approximately 1 acre of fenced in yard directly off the back of the house. Your friends will be able to take plenty of potty breaks and nice tranquil walks in the "countryside". They will be kenneled at night (around 11p.m.) in a dark, empty room in a padded kennel. (I know it sounds depressing but is actually super relaxing for doggos!). Doggie bath services are also negotiable.
About: Hi, my name is Sandy and I would love to care for your pet. I have owned dogs for 25+ years as well as cared for my friends when they are away. I had my last beloved Westie Terrier for 16 years and since have really missed having a dog to look after and bring joy to my home. I'm semi-retired so I am able to provide frequent walks and potty breaks. I live in a 4 bedroom house on Lake Columbia that will provide cozy amenities and lots of fun for your dog. My goal is to make sure your pet feels like they are on a vacation of their own while you are away so you don't have to worry. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you. Thanks, Sandy I am semi-retired so I have plenty of time to keep you pet on a schedule and pamper them! They will be comfortable and enjoy my home! I don't have a fence yard and will always keep them on a leash I have a lot of experience training pets and will work with them!
About: Your dog will be my dog while in my care. I am a huge animal lover who has always made my animals a part of my family, not just an animal. Starting May 4th, I will be training for a new job. My training hours will be 8-5, if you can work around those time please reach out. My yard is not fenced so your babies will only be outside when I am out there with them, leashed if required. I do not agree with leaving a dog alone all night when they are already seeing a difference with their family being gone. If they are dog friendly they would have socialization as well with my friends and family dogs so they could get some interaction and extra exercise! I currently work from home so frequent potty breaks or administration of medication would not be an issue. We would be one big happy family all day long My dogs are not crated when I leave the house but do have an extra large one if required for your baby. If you need me to do a drop in visit, my hours for availability are in the air for the next couple of weeks until I am given my new works hours.

“Thank you Caroline for taking such good care of my Ku'uipo. The video's and pictures you sent of her eating and playing was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be coming back the next time we're in Michigan.”
About: I've had different dogs in the house for my whole life. As a kid my family brought dogs in for foster care. We've taken care of multiple dogs with disabilities, including deaf dogs and partially blind dogs. Dogs get along with me well and I'm good at getting shy dogs to warm up to me. I've also volunteered with the Jackson County Animal Shelter, working with the cats at PetSmart. I've also taken care of relatives'/friends'/neighbors' pets. Currently I spend most of my time at home working on my online classes so I will have plenty of time to spend caring for your dog. On the rare chance that I'm not home at least one of my parents are in the house and will be able to fill in for me while I'm out. The dogs that I own eat at the same time everyday and go out as needed, but if your dogs need to be treated differently it will be easy to change things for them. Just fill me in on what your pet needs to be taken care of properly and I should be able to get it done.
About: Hi! My name is Kylee, and I'm a reliable and experienced pet caregiver with 6+ years of dog handling and training experience, 13 years of cat care experience, and 5 years of caring for guinea pigs and other small animals. I am also CPR and First Aid certified for cats and dogs, and I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency in every visit. I prefer in-home pet care only (at the client's home), as I have my own pets at home, including 5 dogs and 3 cats. My services include drop-in visits, feeding, walks, playtime, litter box and cage cleaning, medication administration, puppy care, and overnight stays. I have experience with large and small dogs, leash training, basic obedience reinforcement, and high-needs care routines. I treat every pet like my own and focus on maintaining their normal routines while owners are away. I am dependable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide attentive, compassionate care so pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home. My schedule is completely open on the weekends and Wednesdays, and I work part-time Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. But I am available after 4:30 those days. I am only comfortable caring for your animals in their home as I have 5 dogs and 3 cats of my own. All animals are treated as they are my own babies.
“Nicole and her family were amazing with our puppy. She even made a concerted effort to try to use the same methods of training we have been using at home. My kids and puppy love her. As someone from out of state with no friends or family in the area, Nicole will be my first "go to" for the future! It's hard to trust folks with your lil ones sometimes!”
“Arling and Mary took great care of my 8-month-old Pomeranian pup. He was comfortable and content with them and they took him on multiple walks and provided great care! Sent updates and took photos. Would use them again in the future and recommend.”
About: Hi, I’m Elise. As a pet sitter it is my deep commitment to providing personalized care and attention to each pet, treating them as if they were my own. With years of experience, I understand the unique needs and personalities of different pets and strive to create a comfortable and stress-free environment for them. I go above and beyond basic pet sitting duties by offering tailored services such as regular updates, customized feeding schedules, and engaging playtime activities. My dedication to ensuring the well-being and happiness of your pets, coupled with a genuine love for animals, makes me a trustworthy and exceptional choice for pet sitting. My work is very flexible, so I have a lot of time for your precious babies! If you need something last minute give me a call! At home and in my clients' homes, I approach pet care with the same level of dedication, love, and attention to detail. I ensure that every pet's individual needs are met. Understanding that each pet has its own personality and preferences, I tailor my care to make them feel comfortable and secure. Whether it's administering medication, maintaining grooming routines, or simply offering a soothing presence, I treat every pet with the utmost respect and care, just as I do with my own beloved animals at home.
“Katie is just great. Immediately felt comfortable with her and you can tell she has tons of experience. She has a great set up, Rodney had an awesome time and loved hanging out in her deck. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I am the person my friends turn to when they have a behavior problem with their dogs, although I am a pet sitter, not a trainer. I have an affinity with dogs. I love to read their expressions and body language to understand their moods. I am retired and stay at home almost always. I have lots and lots of time for the dogs that are entrusted to my care. I have about 2 acres, fenced. I have 3 couches in the living room where me and dogs can get comfortable. I let dogs in, I let dogs out. We spend good weather outside. I am retired and home almost always. I have lots of time for your furkids. We spend nice days outside, and in bad weather we all cuddle in the livingroom. I have a huge fenced yard and 2 resident dogs. There is lots to explore here. Sometimes we all just lay out in the sun and soak up the rays.
About: Cats and dogs have been a part of my life for 20 + years. Each one of them are special in their own ways. I understand the grieving pets go through when they are separated from their family and that is why at my house your pets will be part of mine. Please don't think of it as boarding... when your pets are with me, they are a part of my family! They will be loved and spoiled from the time you drop them off until you are able to get back to them. I have been the one looking for a trusting pet sitter and I have high expectations of what I want, so I give my all to your pet regardless if they are at my house or if I am at your house checking in on a pet. I look forward to meeting you and your pet soon! Thank you!! I am a retired registered nurse so I have a ton of availability and flexibility to help you out with any of your pets needs. I currently do not have the availability to host pets at my home, however I am more than willing to come into your home to care for your pets. My goal is to always keep your pets routine as normal as possible.
About: I’ve worked professionally as a horse trainer, wildlife rehabilitator, zookeeper, animal cruelty investigator and farm animal sanctuary manager. As of 2026 I now offer sitting and boarding for dogs and cats in my home or yours. In my home, your dog or cat would have the space exclusively to themselves as there are no other animals or kids in the house. I can also service horse farms including feeding, cleaning and overnight stays. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else, and I don't take that lightly. I guarantee that your animals will feel safe and comfortable with me, and you'll rest easy knowing they're in experienced hands. I look forward to working with you! I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, outdoor time in my fenced yard, and companionship without long absences. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable experience based on each pet’s personality and needs. In my home, dogs have a peaceful environment and access to my fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Because I work mostly from home and don’t have other animals right now, I’m able to give them consistent attention, companionship, and a relaxed setting. For cats, I have a private bedroom available for those who may feel uneasy at first or need their own space. The room includes a cat tower, cozy cubbies, and a full bed with soft blankets arranged into comfortable nesting spots. This gives them a quiet place to decompress and adjust at their own pace, while still receiving attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal feeding, exercise, and care routine so things feel familiar and low stress. I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, and I’m attentive to details like energy level, mood, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is comfortable and doing well.
About: We have a dog and two Guinea pigs. I also care for several animals during the school year in my classroom at Tecumseh Acres. Friends and neighbors have relied on me to care for their pets as well! Our kids all love caring for animals! I have just completed my 17th year of teaching and am off for the summer! I was looking for a way to earn some extra money doing something I love and caring for pets is it! I have a fenced yard, crates, and lots of time for pets and walks! I also have kids who love animals as much as I do!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 13. I have a puppy of my own who lovesss to socialize. I love to go on walks and car rides and go the park and can’t forget Starbucks and puppicinos. Taking dog and cat naps are cool too! I currently work 3 days a week so I have a lot of free time . I also am willing to work with pet parents on certain availabilities if needed. I have a fur baby who I usually take to the park , I only have a front yard , so we like to go to nice parks with bigger spaces to walk and run around !
About: My 2 daughters and I are an animal-loving home. We have 2 playful cocker spaniel mixes, 3 dog-friendly cats, and 3 horses (at a barn). I work from home, so can provide constant companionship and supervision. My girls are also home for the summer and love playing with all animals. Our yard is over an acre with an invisible fence. I can provide a dog runner line, a long tie-out, or take your dog out on a leash. I can provide daily walks, including to our neighborhood pond if your dog likes the water. I am happy to accommodate any reasonable pet care requests, whatever they may be. I just ask that your dog be vaccinated and friendly with other dogs and kids.

“Initial engagement during the labor weekend, will look to reserve with my next significant excursion. The boys/young Labradors look like they didn’t miss a beat. Glad that Wendy could fit them into her other client schedules, Wendy was easy to converse with aligning the nuances/ particular needs of my pets”
About: I would love to visit with your furry family members when you are busy. I love all dogs, big or small, old or young. I am available nights and weekends I come to your home or your pups can come visit mine. I can also come take your pup for a walk during lunchtime during the week. I have two fur babies that are 2 years old and they love other dogs and love to play. They are both neutered and up to date on their shots. If your pup requires a crate, I have those available too. We have 40 acres, but none of it is fenced. We like to play fetch and play in the kiddie pool when it is hot outside. Let’s set a up a pup play date.
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 30+ years. I am in the medical field,but my passion is animals. I will love your animal like he or she is my own. My passion is with animals and people, I have been in the medical field for over 30 years but I am changing my career choice to animals. I will start part-time and hopefully move into full time with animals. I will provide daily pictures of your baby or babies. I will follow close attention to detail, that you provide me. I can work on some training if needed.
“Anne was good with Apache. She accommodated my request despite it being last minute. She was on time and communicated well with me and sent me photos of Apache when she was over. I would definitely recommend Anne to anyone and would absolutely book with her again! Thank you so much Anne :)”
About: I currently have 2 dogs, and 2 young children (1y/o, 4y/o) in the home. I have had dogs and taken care of them since I was 3 years old. Also have/had other animals such as horses, goats, cats, fish, hermit crabs, chickens, and ducks. Flexible schedule. Love taking the dogs for walks, weather permitting. Some toys and an area to run are the perfect combination to tire out your pooch. Sick pupper? Don't worry I will gladly watch over the poor thing with lots of snuggles. Have an energizer bunny? Weather permitting we will go for a long walk. Don't mind another dog in your home? I can bring my pupper with me so they can play the day away. No pup too big, no pup too small. You won't regret considering me. (: NOTE: There will be a $30 flat for any location that is over a 25 minute drive. I work as a utility locator, typically near my house. Most days I am able to stop at home to let dogs out potty around lunch. Weekends we are typically home all day. Possible pick up and drop off for boarding available but will vary by day. I have tie outs available and 2 dogs for the pups to play with. I can easily contain your dog separately, however if they use an actual crate I recommend bringing it for me to setup in my home.
About: While I'm more used to cats, I do also love dogs. Have a dog with separation anxiety? I can keep them company for a while! I will be working part-time Monday-Friday from 2 pm to 6 pm during the school year (September-Early June). I will be available to watch your pets from 9:30 am-1:30 pm on those days (despite what options this site gave). If I am unable to watch a pet at any time, I will let you know ahead of time by at least a few days. I owned a cat, Higgins, who was a big lovebug and fairly food motivated. I was in charge of feeding him breakfast and dinner since we rescued him in 2015, along with scooping his litterbox. He also needed nightly medication for some stomach issues, so I have experience giving pills. I can feed your pet, clean up after them whether they have a set schedule or not, and provide medication if necessary.

About: I’ve owned numerous dogs in my life & have become my neighborhood dog walker because of it! I would love the opportunity to get to expand the community of doggies I see everyday. I am available to drop-in and/or walk your dog Monday through Thursday, between 10-4pm! I am also available to stay for up to an hour per visit! If I am dropping in, I make sure to follow the instructions given for each dog. This is a professional environment, so I don’t ever relax or get distracted from the pet.
About: I’m knowledgeable in breed-specific needs and maintain consistency to keep them mentally and physically happy! I have previously taken dog behavior courses and am familiar with dog body language. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and ages! No dog is “too much!” I am comfortable with administering medications and providing grooming for long haired/high maintenance breeds. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.

“We are so grateful for Susanna! She is great with our 1 year old puppy, Cooper. She took the time to get to know him and go at his speed in the beginning and is fantastic at following his lead each time she comes to walk him! If he doesn't feel like walking, she makes it a game or plays with him in the yard! She is super responsive and communicative. I know that if any issues were to come up, she would promptly convey them to me. I know our Cooper is in great hands with Susanna!”

“The absolute best!! Nothing but great things to say about Rodney and his care of our 2 big dogs. We appreciated the meet and greet beforehand (signs of a responsible owner) and how he slowly introduced his pack to our dogs instead of all at once. We received simple daily updates, and his responsiveness is always quick. We will be using Rodney for all our care needs.”
“I would have Christine watch our baby again. She was the first person to ever watch our baby. She took good care of Willie G and made sure we stayed informed of him and his daily activities. He was in a home with a very caring family. Christine made us feel at ease while we were gone. Pictures meant alot.”
“We had an excellent experience with Brooklyn taking care of our dogs! Brooklyn is trustworthy, professional and truly loves animals. Knowing they were so well cared for helped us relax on our trip. We will definitely use Brooklyn again and highly recommend her.”
“This was Wes's 3rd time with Coddy and Byron and, per usual, it was a great experience all around! We received regular updates/pictures of Wes finding household bones, playing with their dogs, and making himself a regular guest. Coddy and Byron were super responsive to messages. Highly recommend and Wes will certainly be staying with them in the future!”
“Best sitter ever! Great person. Took great care and sent plenary pics. Really loves animals. I recommend her to anybody that loves there pet. She loves them like her own kids!”
“Very responsive to messages! I appreciated the pictures of our dog while they were there and could see how happy Coco was being there! Thank you again! An absolute pleasure and will definitely book again if needed!”
“There is a reason why Catherine is a Star Sitter on Rover, and we experienced that amply while boarding our 5-year-old Husky and 16-year-old senior Bichon with her for three nights. Both our dogs require medicines and special care, and with Catherine, they got it reliably and wholeheartedly. She took the time to understand our care instructions and went above and beyond our expectations. She asked questions, kept us closely posted, and was supported strongly by her husband and family, all avid dog lovers who provided a secure and loving environment for our pets. When we picked up our dogs, they seemed relaxed and happy. We'd rate Catherine higher than five stars if we could!”
“Highly recommend Amber! Our dogs looked so happy each time she sent pictures or videos, she has a great fenced in yard for them to run around in and even allows dogs on furniture and beds. Hands down my dogs favorite part I’m sure! Her sweet daughter even bought my dogs a toy, they love their new “baby”. Thank you Amber!!”
“Oscar took great care of Frankie and was an excellent and fast communicator from pre-booking through our entire stay. Will definitely yes Oscar whenever we go out of town. She was in such good hands and we loved the daily pics/videos”
“Marianna took excellent care of Ebony and Calypso, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She provided regular updates along with amazing photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from everything she shared that they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciated her attention to detail and the level of care she showed my dogs. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Anne was a wonderful dog sitter. She listened to the idiosyncrasies of my pup and understood that I wasn't being crazy pet owner. She kept him very busy and spoiled him with time and scritches. I would definitely recommend her.”
“We had the most incredible experience with boarding with Haleigh. We boarded an 18 month old GSD puppy with her. She showed him such great care and provided many updates. I cannot recommend her more. Five star. Nicest person ever.”
“This was our dog’s second stay with Ariana and her dog Yogi. I was very impressed with our dog’s care during her first stay and I was equally impressed during her second stay. Our dog is not easygoing, and at one point I worried whether we would ever be able to find a sitter who would make her feel comfortable. Ariana is that sitter. She provides a loving, relaxed, fun environment and is exceptionally good at communicating with owners. She sets a new standard.”
“Kelly and Brandon (and Arvon) were great and so kind. Sent many photos and updates while Daisy had a sleepover. Daisy had the time of her life and didn’t seem too interested in coming home with me when I picked her up. Will definitely be visiting again.”
“Maria and Augustine are wonderful! They are incredibly friendly, highly responsible, and took amazing care of my dog. I had complete peace of mind knowing my pup was in such safe and caring hands. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!"”
About: Since the summer after my freshman year of high school, I’ve provided dog-walking, boarding, and house sitting services to neighbors in my small town. It’s something I’ve really enjoyed, so I’ve decided to carry that passion with me into college. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, from energetic puppies to seniors, and I’ve had dogs my entire life, which has given me a lot of experience and confidence in caring for them! My dog, Ivy, has a chronic illness, so I am well versed with medication administration or special requests. I am currently an undergrad nursing student at UofM, so I know a thing or two about medication from that as well. Thank you so much for your interest — I look forward to spending time with your fur baby! I currently have a part time job for the summer, but otherwise keep my schedule free. I take care of my own dog everyday and provide lots of exercise and walks. I always make safety, trust, and a positive environment my top priorities when caring for pets. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and temperaments, so I take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs and personality. I make sure they’re always secure on walks, use proper equipment, and stay aware of their surroundings to avoid any potential hazards.
