“Thank you, Angela!! My dogs looked like they enjoyed themselves and made themselves at home. Thank you for the daily pictures and taking good care of them. Will bring them again!”
“Bob kept our dog safe and happy. He was quick to respond always, and sent a couple photo updates daily, as I requested. Our dog loved playing with Bob’s dog, Parker, while we were away. :) Bob goes above and beyond - he took our dog to the lake several times and on a couple walks daily. He is very knowledgeable and reinforced some training while we were away.”
“Rachel and Ivan were incredible hosts and took such good care of our dog. They were very flexible when our travel plans got delayed and sent us updates while we were gone. Will definitely have our pup stay with them again!”
“Maggie was great! She communicated and sent pictures while Dexter was boarded with her for the weekend. She provided his meds as required. He enjoyed walks and sunbathing in the backyard. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have experience caring for multiple pets in my home and around family pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel comfortable and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have experience caring for pets throughout my life, so I’m used to building feeding, cleaning, and check in times into my day. I’m able to take care of pets anytime on the days I put. I make sure to stay consistent with each pet’s schedule and give them reliable care and attention every visit. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for both dogs and cats. I make sure all doors and windows are secure and that the space is free from anything unsafe. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks for dogs, litter box care for cats, and any specific instructions from the owner. I always supervise pets while they are in my care and make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and keep them safe and well cared for at all times.
“Piper enjoyed her stay at Caroline’s. Our dog was well cared for and had a lot of fun with Caroline’s dogs and family. Communication was great too! Thank you for taking care of Piper!”
“Cheyenne was very gracious and respectful dealing with my schedule changes. Also, my Willow came home in a happy (and sleepy) mood! I can tell she got lots of play time in!”
About: I have had pets my entire life, and currently have a dog & cat, both who are friendly with other pets. I am patient, reliable and deeply committed to loving and attentive care. I treat every animal as if they were my own! I’ve been trusted to walk neighbors’ and friends’ dogs and to dog-sit since I was 12, which taught me how to care for different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. In addition to dogs, I’ve had cats for over 5 years, so I’m comfortable caring for both. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work nights typically from 3pm-11pm. This allows me to be very present and flexible during the day when it comes to walking, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I have plenty of free time during both weekdays and weekends, so I’m able to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and adjust my schedule to meet their needs. Through regular walks, play sessions, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m happy to provide attentive, reliable care. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I make sure every pet feels comfortable by following their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any other house rules. I have a spacious home with plenty of room for pets to relax, play, and feel at ease. The furniture is pet-friendly, allowing well-mannered guests to feel like part of the family rather than confined to a separate space. Outside, pets have access to a large, fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore, exercise, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. I maintain a clean, calm environment and closely supervise pets at all times, especially during play and walks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and carefully follow all instructions. I double-check doors, leashes, and gates, make sure pets always have fresh water, and monitor behavior closely. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Peter was amazing and took such great care of our Baxter! This was our first time leaving him with a sitter and we were very concerned. Peter reassured us and sent updates throughout our trip! Highly recommend!!!”
“Such a wonderful and relaxing time for road-worn Millie! It was wonderful that Coleen was available and her home and environment were so peaceful! I would highly recommend Coleen for any care for any pet. I felt like Millie had a nice vacation with her Auntie🥰. Will be using her again when we return to TC next spring.”
“Stephanie and Scott took terrific care of our senior pup, Luna. They were loving caregivers and clearly did all they could to make Luna comfortable and to love on and play with her. We received multiple updates and photos every day. We are most happy to have found this home away from home for her, and will definitely be bringing her back!”
“I am really grateful for the care that was provided by Beth to Tasha. I got periodic updates on how tasha was doing throughout her stay. Beth made sure that tasha got a lot of love and care during her stay.”
“Tracey took excellent care of our dog Honey while we were in town for the Ironman race. She was welcoming at drop off and Honey took to her right away. I was sent updates and photos during the pet sitting time which gave us relief seeing how well she was doing. I would book Tracey again 1000%. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl!!”
“Nikki and family did an excellent job taking care of Charlie. They were nice enough to meet up before Charlie’s stay, and they provided updates throughout his stay too. I hope they have Charlie back in the future as well.”

“Tabitha is wonderful! So thoughtful and took the time to really follow my dog’s lead to make sure he feels super comfortable (he is really shy). She gives great updates after each check in and leaves everything just as it was left! Would absolutely recommend!”
“Madison was very friendly and communicative, and I felt confident that my cat, Chloe, was under great care while we were away. I will definitely book with Madison again in the future!”
“I always feel bad leaving our cat by herself when we go out of town. No longer! Jonathan is our kitty's new favorite person. He was so sweet to her and sent such thorough and thoughtful updates (and great pictures) while we were away. We are so grateful Jonathan was able to check in on her and will be booking future visits with him.”
“Highly recomend James. He helped me during a family emergency, came the same day I contacted him for the meet and greet. Started right away. And took great care of my aging Border Collie. She's a picky eater and James went above and beyond to make sure she ate, ( she dosen't allways eat when im gone). I honestly never write reviews for anyone, but I am definitely impressed. Thank you so much James, for taking such good care of my Casey dog.”
About: I’ve owned cats for over six years and have been fully responsible for their daily care, including feeding, deep-cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and maintaining a clean, comfortable environment. I also rescued a stray cat and took on full responsibility for his care. Through consistency, I helped him adjust to indoor life, learn routines, and feel safe and comfortable. This experience taught me how to work with shy, anxious, or newly rescued cats and respect each cat’s unique boundaries. I’m attentive, gentle, and detail-oriented, and I always make sure cats feel secure, clean, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I have been watching dogs since I was in high school for neighbors but recently took up watching dogs seriously in the last year or so. I worked at a private country club in California for the last year and was very involved in watching members dogs. This included taking them for walks, stopping in for daily visits while owners are away or spending multiple nights, sometimes up to a week staying with dogs. This has included many different breeds ranging from schitzus to giant poodles. I am comfortable with multiple animals. I work from home as a freelancer in the golf industry so my schedule is completely flexible to your needs. I am available for morning walks, lunchtime walks and evening walks. I follow clients directions very carefully and can play with, walk or entertain your dog as long as you request. I love caring for animals.
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats since I was young and grey up with a family cat. Living and caring for a cat taught me the importance of respecting each pet’s unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I understand that cats prefer consistency and can be sensitive to changes in their environment. Whether your cat is social and playful, or more reserved, I’m happy to provide care tailored to their needs. During drop in visits, I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, playtime and companionship if they want it, and attention to help them feel comfortable while you’re away! My goal is to make you and your cat feel safe and well cared for in the comfort of yalls home. :)

“Jennifer accepted our doggy daycare request just two days before, which was incredibly helpful. Fitzy had an amazing time with her and his new friend Hobbes.

We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again next time we are in the area!”

“Jill was such an angel! I had a family trip in Traverse and although my pup did great at the resort and wineries, we wanted her to be safe and loved when we went to the beach and pool. Jill had amazing reviews and let me not only book same day during a holiday, but also asked if my pup did ok, offered an overnight service to save me some driving time. Jill gave me updates throughout the day, listened to all my directions, sent pictures and really loved on my usually anxious furbaby during her FIRST overnight with a Rover sitter at 15 years old!! Will definitely book Jill again and recommend anyone do the same!!!”
“We had a day trip planned and couldn't bring our dog so we found Emily on Rover. She had a lot of 5 star reviews and now I know why! She was AMAZING and treated our fur child like her own. She was extremely responsive to messages, provided pictures during the stay and was just genuinely a wonderful person. Seriously cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I am a long-time lover of animals, and have raised a family of humans, along with a family of pets- large dogs, small dogs, birds, hamsters, mice and turtles. I am currently without a pet, so I care for my backyard squirrels, birds, and chipmunks. I am retired with lots of time, energy, and love to care for your dear pet. I love to walk and hike, live close to the TART trail, and would enjoy the company of a furry friend. Walking trails are just outside my door, and I have space for crates and your furry friend's toys or their own special bed and blanket if preferred for their care and comfort.
“Lily had doggy day care with Daniel & she loved it! Daniel was a great communicator, easy to set up Lily’s stay & very friendly at drop off & pick up. I felt comfortable leaving Lily in his care. I would recommend Daniel to anyone looking to have their pet boarded or for doggie daycare 🐾 ❤️”

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.

“Tabitha is been walking my 85 year old mother's labradoodle for about a month. Tabitha has been very kind to my mother and has taken great care of Cocoa. I always get updates about their walks and what business Cocoa has done. Tabitha has also been very dependable through the sub-zero weather we have had this winter. She always shows up with a smile and is happy to be there.”
“We were vacationing in Glen Arbor and needed some last-minute help with our pup while we celebrated a special occasion at a local restaurant. We booked Jennifer for a two-hour walk, and she was absolutely wonderful! She was a fantastic communicator, professional, punctual, and arrived with a big smile. We immediately felt at ease from the moment we met her and felt completely comfortable leaving Coco in her care. She kept us updated throughout the evening with messages about how Coco was doing, which we really appreciated. Coco had a great time, and we were able to enjoy our dinner knowing she was in such good hands. We would absolutely book Jennifer again and highly recommend her!”

“I put in a last-minute request for a walk, and Charles responded right away. He was prompt and polite, and it was immediately obvious that Charles is experienced with dogs. He has a gentle manner and way of speaking - my dogs took to him immediately. He sent me updates throughout the walk and even spent extra time with them. They liked him so much they tried to get in his car! As a Rover sitter myself and as someone that has used other Rover sitters, I know how hard finding a trusted sitter can be, but Charles put my worries to rest. I highly recommend Charles, and I will definitely be using him again.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have hands on experience for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities! Growing up, my mom trained dogs professionally, which gave me early experience to dog behavior and proper pet care. Throughout high school, I regularly helped care for up to 10 dogs at a time, assisting with daily routines, exercise, feeding, and general care. I also grew up with a cat, and have always loved spending time with cats just as much as dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level, and I strive to make them feel safe and comfortable in yalls home. During college, I worked as a nanny for a family and was responsible for walking and caring for their two Great Danes. This experience gave me great confidence in handling larger breeds, and reminded me how important it is to be consistent and reliable. I bring responsibility, attention to detail, and genuine care to every pet I work with. Whether it’s a walk, a drop in visit, or overnight care, I will treat your pet just like family and provide you with updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8AM-5PM at the Community Mental Health in downtown Traverse City, but have some flexibility. I am available for dog walks and drop in visits for an hour any time between 12PM-2PM during the week. I am available from 5:30PM-11 PM Monday-Friday, and have open availability on Saturdays and Sundays. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved family member is a big decision, and I take it seriously. When caring for pets in their own home, I strive to keep their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, or just spending quality time together, I know that consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their parents are away. I am always respectful of clients’ homes and will always follow care instructions carefully. I pay close attention to detail, keep doors and gates secure, monitor pets, and communicate promptly if any concerns arise. My goal is to give you and your pet a stress free experience and peace of mind that comes from knowing they are being care for by someone dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in their wellbeing. Every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care.

I have a fully fenced in yard for your pup to enjoy the great outdoors! We’ll enjoy many walks and cuddles!! If your pup enjoys it we have plenty of toys to play fetch with too. Your pup will be treated like family! My schedule is extremely flexible. I can accommodate just about any arrangement that you need. Please feel free to ask any questions and I’ll answer as soon as possible! :) Expect lots of walks, playing fetch, dog play dates (if they’re up for it) cuddles, photos for their parents, treats…They will be showered with love!

“Thank you, Angela!! My dogs looked like they enjoyed themselves and made themselves at home. Thank you for the daily pictures and taking good care of them. Will bring them again!”
“Bob kept our dog safe and happy. He was quick to respond always, and sent a couple photo updates daily, as I requested. Our dog loved playing with Bob’s dog, Parker, while we were away. :) Bob goes above and beyond - he took our dog to the lake several times and on a couple walks daily. He is very knowledgeable and reinforced some training while we were away.”
“Rachel and Ivan were incredible hosts and took such good care of our dog. They were very flexible when our travel plans got delayed and sent us updates while we were gone. Will definitely have our pup stay with them again!”
“Maggie was great! She communicated and sent pictures while Dexter was boarded with her for the weekend. She provided his meds as required. He enjoyed walks and sunbathing in the backyard. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have experience caring for multiple pets in my home and around family pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel comfortable and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have experience caring for pets throughout my life, so I’m used to building feeding, cleaning, and check in times into my day. I’m able to take care of pets anytime on the days I put. I make sure to stay consistent with each pet’s schedule and give them reliable care and attention every visit. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for both dogs and cats. I make sure all doors and windows are secure and that the space is free from anything unsafe. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks for dogs, litter box care for cats, and any specific instructions from the owner. I always supervise pets while they are in my care and make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and keep them safe and well cared for at all times.
“Piper enjoyed her stay at Caroline’s. Our dog was well cared for and had a lot of fun with Caroline’s dogs and family. Communication was great too! Thank you for taking care of Piper!”
“Cheyenne was very gracious and respectful dealing with my schedule changes. Also, my Willow came home in a happy (and sleepy) mood! I can tell she got lots of play time in!”
About: I have had pets my entire life, and currently have a dog & cat, both who are friendly with other pets. I am patient, reliable and deeply committed to loving and attentive care. I treat every animal as if they were my own! I’ve been trusted to walk neighbors’ and friends’ dogs and to dog-sit since I was 12, which taught me how to care for different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. In addition to dogs, I’ve had cats for over 5 years, so I’m comfortable caring for both. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work nights typically from 3pm-11pm. This allows me to be very present and flexible during the day when it comes to walking, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I have plenty of free time during both weekdays and weekends, so I’m able to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and adjust my schedule to meet their needs. Through regular walks, play sessions, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m happy to provide attentive, reliable care. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I make sure every pet feels comfortable by following their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any other house rules. I have a spacious home with plenty of room for pets to relax, play, and feel at ease. The furniture is pet-friendly, allowing well-mannered guests to feel like part of the family rather than confined to a separate space. Outside, pets have access to a large, fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore, exercise, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. I maintain a clean, calm environment and closely supervise pets at all times, especially during play and walks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and carefully follow all instructions. I double-check doors, leashes, and gates, make sure pets always have fresh water, and monitor behavior closely. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.
“I am really grateful for the care that was provided by Beth to Tasha. I got periodic updates on how tasha was doing throughout her stay. Beth made sure that tasha got a lot of love and care during her stay.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our pup was so well cared for and loved while we were away. We had complete peace of mind with the amazing commutation Heather had with us. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Nikki and family did an excellent job taking care of Charlie. They were nice enough to meet up before Charlie’s stay, and they provided updates throughout his stay too. I hope they have Charlie back in the future as well.”
About: I started my pet care journey as a dog walker at age 9, and have found great joy in pet sitting over the years. I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, ages and personalities, and now specialize in in-home boarding where your pets are treated like part of our family. My home offers fenced acreage for safe, supervised running and play, along with structured walks and trail runs for those who need a little extra. After playtime, there’s always a warm bed, or a cozy spot on the couch, waiting for naps and snuggles. With degrees in Wildlife Biology and Zoology, I bring not only a deep love for animals but also a professional understanding of their behavior, needs, and well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and adventurous or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I split my regular work schedule with 3 wfh days each week. We are an early rising family who enjoy spending time on our homestead. We have several resident pets on the farm: 20 sheep, 2 mini donkeys, chickens and one beloved mutt. Our regular routine involves a 1 mi walk in the am and pm with lots of other opportunities throughout the day for supervised fresh air or playtime in one of our fenced 1 acre pastures. Safe and secure, a ball lovers paradise! I’m comfortable treating your pet as my own with specialized treatment or care as needed. We have 2 respectful preteen boys in the household so kid friendly dogs are an absolute must.
