“James was great with our dogs. He was constantly sharing photos and giving us updates. He was quick to respond too. Our dogs were super happy. Would definitely recommend and will rebook in the future with James.”
“Rex and family are the best. Our dog loves going here to play with other dogs in the big backyard. Super accommodating and so nice. It’s where we always take our guy when we are in the area and need a dog sitter! Thank you!!”
“I can’t even accurately describe how wonderful Katlynn and her whole family are. This was a last minute booking for us and Katlynn absolutely saved our vacation! The pictures she sent daily were incredible and gave us the peace of mind to fully enjoy being gone! She went above and beyond to fit us into her schedule and treat our pup as if he was her own! We will absolutely book with her again! The only proof we needed that he loved being there was that while he was so happy to see us, he didn’t want to jump in our car! That said it all! 🩵”
“Amy was a wonderful sitter for our dog while we were away for a week. We loved all the updates she would share and I could see that our dog was very well cared for and absolutely loved staying with Amy. Thank you so much!”
“Karen was a fantastic fit for our dog . She took amazing care of her and eased all my anxiety about leaving her for 16 nights . Karen sent daily updates and pictures . I would highly recommend booking with her !! We will book with Karen again for our next vacation”
“This was my first time using Rover. Taya was responsive, and answered all my questions before I booked her. I was nervous the day of, upon meeting Taya I felt better. Her house is set up perfectly for dogs, and boarding dogs. With a huge back yard!! She took amazing care of our doggy. I received many photos, videos and communication during my trip. Koda Skye was loved on, interacted with and well taken care of!!! Taya went above and beyond for me and I will book her again, without hesitation.”
“Our pup loves staying with Natasha! She has watched our golden countless times and most recently kept her for a full week. She kept us updated on how things were going and sent photos often. 100% recommend.”
“Julie was a wonderful Rover host. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them and loved getting pictures of my pup every day. I definitely will be using them again and highly recommend. Thanks so much!!”
“Kaity and family made the process very smooth. It was great to have a meet and greet in advance as well. I appreciated her quick responses to my messages, as well as having Zoey so warmly welcomed in her home. This is our first time using Rover for care and we will definitely do so again.”
“My two dogs stayed with Jenai and Sean and had the best time! I got regular updates from them about how things were going, and they were happy and loved during their stay! They came home exhausted from all of the fun! Definitely recommended!!”
“Great 1st experience for my Teddy and I. I’m so pleased with the care my boy received! This was our first time actually hiring a dog sitter and it was flawless, such a wonderful experience with Catherine. From beginning to end, she made everything so easy and comforting for my dog and I!”
“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.”
About: Hello, my name is Amanda! I would be honored to provide peace of mind, knowing your home &/or pets are safe and cared for, while you are away, during the day or longer. I offer drop in visits, dog walking, doggy daycare, boarding and house sitting. Additionally, I have experience taking care of my parent's diabetic cat, when they went out of town, which included giving him insulin shots twice a day, so I am comfortable with some medical needs' animals. My cat, Penny, is technically a senior cat, and she remains very healthy and happy! I also have experience taking care of my friends' senior dogs overnight when her and her family went out of town. As well as my own senior dog, Bentley, who has passed away. It has been a few years, but my heart is still too broken to think about welcoming a dog into my home for forever, but I so miss having a dog's company, so, temporary will have to do for now! I know just how much I loved my dog and wanted to protect him and keep him happy & healthy as long as possible, and I promise to treat your pets the same. I was also the proud owner of 4 chickens when I lived in Florida. They were the greatest entertainment! By the time I moved to Michigan, there was sadly only one remaining chicken, I didn't want to confuse her with the weather change, so of course she became a house chicken. She got to live her last two years living inside the house, cozy as can be, with me, my dog & cat. We all loved it! Long story short, I'm also available for some farm animal sitting. I promise to keep them out of your house! Unless... I would love to chat with you about your pets and your situation, and see if I can be of any assistance to you! Thank you so much! Talk soon! I would really love for pet care to become my full time work, and at this time I have open availability, in order to achieve that. I have a fully fenced yard and no off-limit spaces in my home, your pets will be treated as my own, while in my care!
“Sydney was amazing! You can tell as soon as you walk through her door that her heart belongs to animals. I was so nervous leaving my old man with a stranger for the first time. But I got updates daily. He got to go on walks and get lots of love and attention. I picked him up and he was brushed and smiling. I am so happy with Sydney's service.”
“Becky is a tremendous sitter! It was our first time using Rover and we left our two dogs with her for 11 days. She made us incredibly comfortable throughout the entire process, from our initial meet and greet all the way to pick up. She's also great about communicating and sharing updates, often even more than once per day. We couldn't have asked for anyone better!”
“Kathy was fantastic with Teddy. She suggested a meet & greet prior to officially booking to make sure it was a good match. For the week that Teddy stayed with Kathy she provided photos, videos and written updates which helped keep us at ease. It is clear that Kathy loves dogs and enjoys having them in her home!”
“Jamie was great with our high energy needs dog, Maggie. She’s a border collie/blue heeler mix that is a good dog, but only if she’s exercised her body (and mind) enough. We loved having picture updates over our long weekend away. And by the second night I knew everything would be okay and that Jamie had the compassion and care needed for a dog like Maggie. We’re SO happy to have found Jamie and will definitely be requesting her services again!!”

“Michelle provided updates and services as requested. Came home to a non-distressed cat which is all I can hope for with my shy guy. Would book her again.”
“Harper didn't warm up to her, but that's because of him not Ashton. He's only ever warned up to one other person. She was very respectful of his space and comfort level and sent pics from every visit. Highly recommend and will definitely use her services again.”
“Kelli was amazing. She made sure my kitties were well taken care of with everything that they needed. She always sent consistent updates about her visits and went above and beyond to make sure my two cats felt loved in my absence. I highly recommend Kelli to anyone looking for an excellent petsitter.”
“I had to be gone for 5 weeks on an externship and Shaira did a fantastic job looking after my pup! She’s very attentive and doesn’t hesitate to contact you with questions or updates.”
“As always, above and beyond care from Anna. Anxious pet parents, look no further for someone who will calm your fears. Anna gives such thorough photos and updates while you're away and those photos make it clear she loves caring for your animals.”
“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.”
“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!!”
“Emily was great at communicating. She sent photos everyday. Our cats seemed much happier and relaxed when we got home versus the stress they experienced at a kennel in the past I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again”
“Olivia took such great care of my senior cat Pearl. She gave her the loves she needed while we were gone, as a shy cat Pearl warmed up to Olivia quickly. I definitely recommend Olivia and likely to book again.”
“Shawnia was amazing! Always gave great photo updates and even walked up our snowy driveway to make sure our cats were taken care of when we got TONS of snow while out of town. 5/5 would recommend!”
About: I care with love, patience, and presence. I’m experienced with both playful pups and senior pets, and I treat every animal like family. Reliable, calm, and faith-rooted. Your pet is safe with me. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my week when I’m not waitressing, serving in student ministry, or at church. I have a flexible schedule and love spending my free time caring for animals with presence, love, and joy. 🐾 I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following their routines closely, giving lots of love and attention, and keeping their space clean and secure. I respect your home like it’s my own and send regular updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. 🐾
“Nadia was a joy to work with. Very professional. She kept us informed on the days events. Sent pics & videos of her interaction with our kitty's! Put my mind at ease, since I've never left my 2 year old cats alone. Plus she maintained security of my shop & belongings. I would highly recommend Nadia. We will always request her. If your looking for someone that is on top of their game + trustworthy, its Nadia”
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.
About: I've had cats throughout my entire life and they can be a hassle, especially if they're a little mischievous and curious. But it's always worth it. I've had cats my entire life, mainly strays, and they are some weird, crazy cats. Sometimes they get medications for some sicknesses, and I have been able to administer them. So, I hope I can make things a little easier for you!

“Kelli did a great job watching our energetic puppy, Riley. She sent a picture soon after we left Riley. It was reassuring to see she was doing fine. Riley had an opportunity to play with Kelli's puppy. She came home well cared for and ready for a long nap!”
“Thank you so much Taya for taking care of Simba. The most important thing is you accepted the request with a very short notice. We are so glad we found you and will definitely be continuing to book you for future reference. Thanks again and bless you.”
“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.”
About: I am working on some pretty amazing updates. Additional outdoor yards are in the works, as well as a perimeter fence around the home property! I have also added Tracki to my collars. Tracki runs on global GPS (satellite feedback) and not cellular feedback, giving that extra security for your pups with no interruption in tracking! Bark & Barn is a privately insured in-home kennel that provides overnight and day boarding options as well as drop-in visits/walks for all pets, exotic included. I also provide optional training for dogs. I have five years of experience as a veterinary assistant in a high volume multi-species setting. With this, I have gained the knowledge, training, and experience in animal behavior as well as proper technique in safe animal hold, administering all forms of medication, administering emergency fluids, and animal CPR. Your pups will have access to multiple sections of my home, a fenced play yard, and walks over 120 acres of farm fields and streamed woods! I offer basic puppy training during board and day stays, including potty and crate training. I will gladly accept shark puppies, understanding completely how difficult these pups can be for many caretakers who are not experienced in their breed characteristics. I've worked with and owned dogs for over 17 years. I have a preference for high energy/high drive dogs, though I love all of them just the same. I am a farm mom of school aged children, work remotely, a full-time online student at KCC while my kids sleep, and have plenty of time to devote to your pets. I will follow strict biosecurity and safety measures. I am by no means a "doggy playcare". For their and my safety, I do not allow guest pups to interact together. I have sectioned off portions of my home and large basement for roam, and utilize sanitized in-home kennels for overnight and unattended times as well as movement of guests (inside, outside, walks, etc). I currently have full availability outside of school drop-off in the mornings and flexible pick-ups in the afternoon. I spend my free time caring for my own animals and attending online classes and seminars! I have a knack for social cues and when and how to approach. Discipline is and will always be reinforcement based. I have experience with reactive dogs and understand any dog can be reactive in the right setting, so meet and greets are a must! Our personal working dogs are not within the home's boundaries and remain with their flock at all times.
“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!”
“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!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Katherine and her lovely pups/cats! She was incredibly attentive to my pup, communicated clearly and consistently, and truly went above and beyond to care for Percy. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter.”
“Julie and her husband, Joe, took good care of Obi. It was his first time staying with them. Julie sent me a picture and video of Obi having a good time. Their dog Barron was not home to play with, but I think they played with Obi and gave him lots of attention.”
“Ellie did a fantastic job watching my pup and was a pleasure to work with! She made sure Ophie’s needs were met and provided a great environment for her to get her energy out. I got plenty of updates during her stay, and she came home relaxed and happy. I highly recommend Ellie’s services!!”

“Nayoma was great! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family. He takes a while to warm up to others but Nayoma was patient with him and he got more comfortable as the day went on. We were happy to get an update and some pictures of him throughout the day. I will definitely use Nayoma again in the future!”
About: I’ve been around animals since I was born. I’ve had a lot of experience with dogs, and I love to be around them. My favorite thing to do is to be with animals. I have my own Siberian Husky that I will need to drop in on occasionally I do have a dog of my own. But other then babysitting for family and doctors appointments I am pretty free other than that. I love all animals and love getting new experiences. I would feed the pets, let them out every few hours. Keep them company, play with them take them for walks, anything that would be needed.
“Daryl had a great visit with Natalie and loved playing with her dog. Natalie was accommodating, responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. We would book again!”
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!
About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, and they have enriched my life so much. I volunteered at animal shelters, working with dogs of all kinds, and socializing with the cats. I regularly walked dogs and was a dog/house sitter for over a year, then took a brief hiatus while I was working full time and am getting back into dog sitting now that I have a house of my own, and can offer boarding services! I have also had two puppies over my life that I helped raise and take care of into their old age. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to spend loving your critters, and my partner works fully remote so he is available to let dogs in and out while I am gone! We have a large fenced in backyard with lots of room to run and play, plus we love going on walks when we have dogs visiting us. We have two cats, Swiper and Bilbo, who are both familiar with dogs, and can be shy but very friendly. They also have their own hideaway which houses their food and litter that dogs do not have access to in case they need some time to themselves. My mom's dog, Juno, also visits us frequently, and she LOVES having playmates around and gets along with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I make sure to take swift action on any problems that may arise, and communicate frequently in detail. You can rest easy knowing I treat any critter in my care as if they were one of my own, and you will also receive picture updates every day, usually multiple times a day.

About: Hi! I have had pets in my life for over a decade and am truly an animal person. I love taking care of animals and am excited at the idea that I can do it at least semi-professionally. In the past, it has been one of my favorite jobs. I have experience with horses, sheep, ducks, guinea pigs, snails, fish, and hermit crabs, as well as cats and dogs. This background has provided me with skills in maintaining appropriate attention to feeding and training routines in multiple species at a time. I have learned to be adaptable to an animal’s habits as they adapt to my presence. Some special skills I have include caring for disabled and senior pets, providing preventative and responsive medication, managing food according to allergies, taking care of trained attack dogs, and providing first aid in an emergency situation. I am a student so am mainly free in the early/mid morning and mid/late afternoons and evenings during the school year. I am also free on the weekends. I have had lots of experience with unique pet care, such as with senior animal needs and allergy and medication awareness. With that experience and my background in care for multiple species, I feel comfortable recognizing signs of abnormal behavior.
“Shaira is everything you need in a care for a dog, she very attentive, knowledgeable, and showed class and professionalism and she's very aware of problems if they exist ,I was pleasantly surprised in her intuition dealing with Thor my American Bully. She kept me up to date with pictures and walks, this was my 1st time leaving Thor with anyone, and she understood what to do and how to react, I cannot say more about this young woman, she will be at the top of my list when I need someone to take care of Thor... Only one problem!!!! There are not enough stars, she actually deserve 10 stars .”
About: Hello! I am a second year veterinary student at the University of Illinois. I am home in MI with my parents for the summer, so I’d love to care for your pet(s) while you’re away. I have experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments and energy levels. I am also Fear Free certified, so I pride myself on providing comfortable visits. I will be in the Battle Creek area from June through August. Come August, I will be in the Champaign, IL area. My daily/weekly schedule is fairly open as I do not have a current job. My pets are allowed on furniture. However, I will respect whatever rules you have in place with your pet. I tend to do an outside break every 2-4 hours depending on weather, but in the summer most days are spent outside. I feed my dog on a 2 meal schedule, but can accommodate the pet(s) normal meal routines.
About: I have lived with dogs my entire life, all shapes and sizes. I currently own a Husky, his name is Rollo, and a Chihuahua named Yoda. Both of them are age 6 and have been solely in my care since. I understand that every dog has their own personality, especially breeds like huskies. I’m comfortable handling their energy, attitude, and unique needs while making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I'm currently working part-time but am also in between jobs so my schedule could change. However, I am currently available Sunday-Saturday from 11am-6pm. I live in a safe quiet environment that offers lots of nearby maintained county trails for dogs to walk in, including enclosed dog parks. My two dogs get along with others extremely well to provide company if wanted.
About: Former federal employee and defense contractor (over 28 years)/deferred retirement. I've been boarding, house sitting, dropping in, walking, and running with dogs since COVID. I only accept one client at a time in my home, so I can provide personalized one-on-one care, including cats. Open to other types of animals, and/or duties as assigned (mail collection, plant and/or pool/spa care, garbage/recycling, snow clearing, etc.). Prices are adjustable, and willing to trade services for a handy person. No strict routine here. I’m generally on a first shift-type schedule, but will adjust to your pet’s needs. I typically have groceries delivered to my vehicle weekly, and take dogs with me if they enjoy car rides. Safe neighborhood. I have a .5 acre lot, but only the yard around my pool is fenced in (less than half the lot). Good safety latches on the gates; pool safety cover off-season. Dogs are discouraged away from the in-ground pool, but may use my kiddie pool. They will be supervised while outside. There will not be any other pets or children present during a meet & greet or trial visit, or while boarding or providing day care. Bi-level carpeted home. It has been marked, so if that’s a potential issue, please look elsewhere. 4-wheel drive Jeep, so snow is not likely an issue to get to or transport your fur babies. I carry PCI Pet Care Insurance.
About: I've had numerous pets throughout my life and they can be a big hassle. But it's always worth it in the end. I hope I can make it a little easier and reassuring for you! I live with only one cat at the moment, which is surprising I don't have more pets. But I do take care of my sister's 2 dogs sometimes. I kinda miss having more pets, but I can't get any at the moment, sadly. So I'm hoping this a good outlet for that. I hope to stop by and help your pet when I can, or give them a good walk. I always think that pets should get a good walk/run in at least once a day, especially if it's an energetic blue heeler or something. And I always enjoy a walk too. But if that's not their thing, I'm cool with chilling too and giving all the loving and pets.
About: I have had animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, chickens… the list goes on and on! I have been caring for my own pets for at least the last 23 years and have cared for others’ pets for at least 15. I have experience with domestic, farm, and a few exotic animals! Our 10 year old pointer, Rooney, just passed away in February so I would like to love on YOUR pets while I grieve and prepare my heart to love a new dog of my own. I am home all day, so your pup would get all of the love and attention they deserve while in my care! I do have 4 young children, but they have grown up with dogs their entire lives and have learned how to be respectful of them. Your dog can be played with, walked, or just loved on! Whatever they need! I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but she is extremely dog friendly. I look forward to taking care of your babies the next time you need some help! I am a stay at home mom, so I am home nearly all of the day. The longest your dog would be crated would be 1 hour. They will have full access to the backyard and will be given constant love and attention. I have a yard and the whole day to play with your pups or take them for walks! Me and my kids will totally enjoy playing fetch and chase and whatever else your dogs love to do!
“Anna was so kind and sweet with our little pup. She was accommodating and accepted our booking kind of last minute, even on a holiday weekend. Thank you for taking care of our girl.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my entire life and I house-sit/dog-sit as a part-time job, as well as work at two stables. I grew up with the responsibility of taking care of my own pets, so I enjoy taking care of other people’s animals! I pet sit for another company and for clients I know personally, so my schedule is updated as accurately as possible on my page- most weeks I’ll be available Mon/Tues/Thurs/Sat/Sun. I could possibly help with pets on Wednesdays and Fridays, but those are my scheduled work days. When my semester starts in September, I’ll be occupied Tues/Thurs. When I am chosen for whatever service you might need, I’ll be able to feed, let your dogs out, walk them/play with them, spend time with your cats, etc.! I’d like to know a day or two in advance, but I could possibly accept a same day booking. I take care of every animal like they’re my own; I’ve taken many dogs off the streets to find their owners. This is no different, your animal will be treated with respect and love while you’re away! I won’t be taking care of animals at my house (due to my own pets), but I would possibly be willing to do overnight stays at the client’s house if it’s a good fit.
About: I’ve grown up having dogs and cats around me my entire life and there’s nothing I love more than keeping my furry friends safe and happy 💕 I have a flexible schedule that allows pet care to be a regular part of my daily routine. I work part-time as a party princess, primarily on select weekends, and gigs are infrequent and scheduled ahead of time. Because of this, I’m able to commit fully to feeding schedules, walks, check-ins, and quality time, ensuring pets receive dependable and focused care. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and bedtime routines. I make sure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment while keeping the home clean and respected. I also will provide updates so owners feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I bring over 15 years of experience as a puppy trainer for Canine Companions for Independence, where I helped raise and train service dog puppies with structure, consistency, and patience. That experience gave me a deep understanding of obedience training, behavior development, socialization, and building trust with dogs of all temperaments. I’ve also had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. I’m comfortable reinforcing training, working with puppies, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I understand routines, communication, and the importance of making pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away. What sets me apart is reliability, experience, and treating every pet like family — with structured care, attention to detail, and consistent updates for peace of mind. As a stay-at-home dad, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. During the school year, I have flexibility and availability throughout the day for drop-ins, walks, feedings, and check-ins. Summers are even more open, allowing me to offer consistent, reliable care with a flexible schedule. Because I’m home-based, I’m able to prioritize punctuality, routine, and communication. Pet care isn’t something I try to squeeze in — it’s something I can intentionally plan my day around to ensure your pets receive dependable, attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide exercise or playtime based on their needs, clean litter boxes or pick up waste promptly, and reinforce any household rules or training already in place. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on consistency, patience, and attentiveness. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. With over 15 years of experience training puppies for Canine Companions for Independence and a lifetime of owning both dogs and cats, I’m highly observant of behavior and body language, ensuring your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
About: I know how to handle more energetic or anxious animals and can read animals behaviors very well. I have worked at multiple veterinary clinics through internships as a vet assistant. I now work at an animal shelter as a part of the medical team + animal care team. Due to this I am able to administer any medication or care to your pet. I work 5 days a week but only for around 6 hours per shift so the rest of the day I can spend with your animal and caring for them :) I have a very large yard, not fenced but I will walk your animal around it and spend time with them outside (leashed) so they get lots of wxercise and enrichment. I have multiple rooms in which your animal can roam so they don’t feel trapped + toys. Your pet will get lots of play time, cuddles, and attention based on their needs!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver, and my home, The Cozy Critter Cottage, is a cozy, whimsical place where pets can relax and feel at home while their owners are away. Many people say our home feels like stepping into a magical storybook, with cozy spaces and lots of warmth. It’s the perfect environment for animals who enjoy comfort, attention, and a calm home atmosphere. I have several years of experience caring for and training animals, and I’m comfortable working with pets with a wide variety of personalities, temperaments, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers quiet cuddles and naps, I adapt to their routine so they feel safe and happy. My own animal family includes three friendly ragdoll kitties, a sweet Pomeranian, fish, and chickens. All of my pets are well-socialized and used to being around other animals, which helps visiting pets settle in comfortably. I’m also able to accommodate animals who may need extra space or a quieter environment. My home is large enough that pets can be comfortably separated if needed, which can be helpful for animals who prefer their own space, are adjusting to new environments, or require special care. When pets stay here they are treated like family. They’ll have plenty of attention, cozy spots to relax, playtime, and lots of love. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, training cues, and any specific instructions you provide. I offer most services available on Rover, including boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always send photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing during their stay. My goal is simple: a safe, happy, magical little vacation for your pet while you’re away. 🐾✨ Pet care is a natural part of our daily life, and our routine is built around making sure our animal kiddos get consistent attention, structure, and love throughout the day. My wife and I coordinate our schedules so that someone is almost always home. I work full time Tuesday through Thursday, and during that time my wife is home caring for the animals and keeping their routines consistent. The rest of the week, we’re typically both home, which allows us to provide even more supervision, playtime, and one-on-one attention. We start the day with morning walks and feeding, followed by free-roam time in the home so pets can relax and settle in comfortably. Throughout the day, we provide enrichment, attention, and outdoor time in our fenced yard—something our Pomeranian especially enjoys, and visiting pets are welcome to enjoy as well. In the evenings, we do another walk along with wind-down time so pets feel calm and at ease. Because of this setup, pets staying with us are rarely left alone and get a great balance of activity, routine, and cozy relaxation in a safe, structured environment. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is my top priority. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family and are always supervised, comfortable, and well cared for. Our pets are our kids! :) Pets are welcome to free roam in a cozy, structured environment, with consistent routines that include feeding, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For pets who may need extra space, time to adjust, or a lower-stimulation environment, we are able to comfortably separate animals within the home. We also have a dedicated area for crates, making it easy to accommodate crate-trained pets or owner preferences.

About: I am an animal lover; I have been my entire life.I have experience working with senior animals, I have experience with administering all medications; whether it’s injections, oral liquids, or pills, or topicals. I treat my dog and my cat like they’re part of my family. I want your pets to feel loved while you’re away, so I will do everything I can to ensure that happens. I will make sure they are fed exactly as you need me to, I will administer medications (if they need them), we will go on walks, and if they are allowed to sleep in a bed, they can sleep with me also.

“Rex and family are the best. Our dog loves going here to play with other dogs in the big backyard. Super accommodating and so nice. It’s where we always take our guy when we are in the area and need a dog sitter! Thank you!!”
“I can’t even accurately describe how wonderful Katlynn and her whole family are. This was a last minute booking for us and Katlynn absolutely saved our vacation! The pictures she sent daily were incredible and gave us the peace of mind to fully enjoy being gone! She went above and beyond to fit us into her schedule and treat our pup as if he was her own! We will absolutely book with her again! The only proof we needed that he loved being there was that while he was so happy to see us, he didn’t want to jump in our car! That said it all! 🩵”

About: Hello, my name is Amanda! I would be honored to provide peace of mind, knowing your home &/or pets are safe and cared for, while you are away, during the day or longer. I offer drop in visits, dog walking, doggy daycare, boarding and house sitting. Additionally, I have experience taking care of my parent's diabetic cat, when they went out of town, which included giving him insulin shots twice a day, so I am comfortable with some medical needs' animals. My cat, Penny, is technically a senior cat, and she remains very healthy and happy! I also have experience taking care of my friends' senior dogs overnight when her and her family went out of town. As well as my own senior dog, Bentley, who has passed away. It has been a few years, but my heart is still too broken to think about welcoming a dog into my home for forever, but I so miss having a dog's company, so, temporary will have to do for now! I know just how much I loved my dog and wanted to protect him and keep him happy & healthy as long as possible, and I promise to treat your pets the same. I was also the proud owner of 4 chickens when I lived in Florida. They were the greatest entertainment! By the time I moved to Michigan, there was sadly only one remaining chicken, I didn't want to confuse her with the weather change, so of course she became a house chicken. She got to live her last two years living inside the house, cozy as can be, with me, my dog & cat. We all loved it! Long story short, I'm also available for some farm animal sitting. I promise to keep them out of your house! Unless... I would love to chat with you about your pets and your situation, and see if I can be of any assistance to you! Thank you so much! Talk soon! I would really love for pet care to become my full time work, and at this time I have open availability, in order to achieve that. I have a fully fenced yard and no off-limit spaces in my home, your pets will be treated as my own, while in my care!
“Sydney was amazing! You can tell as soon as you walk through her door that her heart belongs to animals. I was so nervous leaving my old man with a stranger for the first time. But I got updates daily. He got to go on walks and get lots of love and attention. I picked him up and he was brushed and smiling. I am so happy with Sydney's service.”
“Becky is a tremendous sitter! It was our first time using Rover and we left our two dogs with her for 11 days. She made us incredibly comfortable throughout the entire process, from our initial meet and greet all the way to pick up. She's also great about communicating and sharing updates, often even more than once per day. We couldn't have asked for anyone better!”
“Jamie was great with our high energy needs dog, Maggie. She’s a border collie/blue heeler mix that is a good dog, but only if she’s exercised her body (and mind) enough. We loved having picture updates over our long weekend away. And by the second night I knew everything would be okay and that Jamie had the compassion and care needed for a dog like Maggie. We’re SO happy to have found Jamie and will definitely be requesting her services again!!”
About: For the past ten years I’ve worked in the area as a veterinary assistant and also have experience in dog daycare and grooming. I enjoy developing relationships with pets and their humans! Being a home away from home is an huge honor to me. I am currently available during weekdays for daycare. I have a great space at my home and neighborhood to keep your dog company for the day. I am now doing pet sitting from my home and able to stay at your home. Whatever your pet is most comfortable with! I have a fenced in yard and my own dog that would love to play. I also have a great neighborhood to explore with your pet. The latest pick up time is 6:30pm but can accommodate if something comes up.
“Liz was absolutely lovely. She took great care of my very anxious dog and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and kept me updated as to how she was doing all weekend. Would definitely recommend.”
