“Kym kept me updated of how my pet was doing through texts and pictures while I was out of town and she took really great care of my pet which put me at ease knowing my dog was safe and well cared for.”
“I am in the hospital and my regular sitter needed to go away for the weekend. I booked and confirmed with her very easily. She was great with communication with both myself and the regular sitter who dropped my dog off and picked her up. She regularly updated me with photos of them on a walk and my dog looked very happy in them. Everything went great I would for sure use Angie again.”
“Amber made pick up and drop off quick and easy. She provided updates and photos/videos during our stay and accommodated us when we were running late. Would use her services again.”
“We did a meet and greet initially. Mary kept us informed of Hunter and how he was doing as we started the process. She was excellent and Hunter seemed to enjoy himself once he was settled. Thank you Mary!”
“She is amazing!! Other boarders would send us maybe one pic a day. We got a load of pics three times a day. She had everything only thing we had to bring was food and the pup. She understands animals and their behaviors. Would recommend her to EVERYONE!!”
“Madison and Brandon were amazing dog sitters for Teddy. They were very patient and worked with him to get to know their three dogs. Very responsive and attentive to Teddy.”
“Sydney made our first vacation without our fur child a breeze! We felt completely relaxed and worry-free leaving our pup with her. She provided consistent text and photo updates and was very proactive with her care. Our pup absolutely loved her and was clearly very comfortable around her. We look forward to booking Sydney again!”
“Miranda was amazing and took great care of Otis! She responded quickly, sent me updates and is very friendly. Otis appears to have loved running with the other pups on her large property as he has been snoring since I picked him up! I would highly recommend Miranda!”
About: I’ve been around and have always loved all animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, ferrets, and fish. Open to helping with any pets. I work full time Monday-Thursday but I’m completely open to care for your pets Friday-Sunday. I like being active and getting outside so your pets will get all the walks and activity. At home my cats and dogs are free to roam the home. The yard is not fenced so we do use a cable in the backyard or go for walks on the leash for potty breaks.
About: My husband and I always had a pack of rescues. Large, small, sick, old. We had no children so our pets were our children. My husband passed away and I recently just lost my last fur baby. I want to travel a bit so pet sitting is going to be my substitute for a while. I love cats but unfortunately I'm highly allergic. I currently work remotely but will be retiring shortly. My daily routine is wide open. I've always had one or more dogs so my routine has always been focused on their care. My last 3 were older boys with medical conditions so my life was focused on their care. I can accommodate crates or not, whatever your babies need. I do not have a fenced in yard so when they go outside they will always be on a leash.
“Veronika is fantastic and our two dogs were treated like family! They had the best time running around with her dogs, she provides daily updates, and we will definitely use her in the future!”
“Our dog is a lover and he was well taken care of. He received lots of love and attention which made his stay all that much better. We loved all the photos! Thanks so much Laura for taking such great care of our furbaby! He was in the best of hands while we were away!!”
“Amanda watched our puppy Milo for the weekend, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Milo is full of energy, and Amanda was so great with his active puppy nature! She regularly sent us pictures and updates, and we could tell from every photo that he was having the best time—playing hard, staying happy, and feeling right at home with her family! That was so appreciated from this new dog mama! We are truly grateful for Amanda’s patience and attentiveness. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! She is wonderful!!”
“Britnie is absolutely amazing!! Being new to Michigan, we struggled with finding someone to take care of Luna while we had to leave for the weekend on a plane back to Florida. It’s hard to trust just anyone with taking care of your best friend! Especially being so far away. We gave Britnie a try as I had a good feeling. She assured me Luna was in good hands and to enjoy our vacation. She exceeded all of our expectations!!! I received message and picture updates about Luna all weekend which my family and I enjoyed and greatly appreciated! Britnie is just so sweet and gave us the comfort we needed and the love Luna needed. Luna especially had a blast with all the dogs and Britnies fam I seriously don’t have enough words to say how much we appreciate you! Luna says thank you for taking care of me :D I would love to come back again!”
“Joshua watched Stella for 4 nights. He took wonderful care of her. We had a great experience. He sent daily updates and gave us such peace of mind during my daughter’s wedding week. Reliable, communicative and trust worthy, I truly appreciate all his help and would highly recommend him.”
“Jemily took care of our dog, Mandy, when we were in Ontario for a family reunion. We appreciated the nightly pics she sent of Mandy, and drop off and pick up was easy. We had a construction-related backup on the Blue Water Bridge on the way over from Michigan, and so we were quite late to drop our dog off, but Jemily was very communicative and reassured us that all was well. Our sense is that Mandy was comfortable there and enjoyed her time there. We would be happy to have Jemily watch her again if the opportunity arises in the future. Thanks Jemily and family!”
“We left our Georgie with Lisa for a week while we were out of town. Her communication was great and George seemed to enjoy himself! She sent updates and photos of him daily. We will be leaving George with Lisa again in the future 😊”
“Carolina was absolutely fantastic! Hazel loved her time there. She was happy and tired (in a great way) when we picked her up. Carolina had excellent communication and took Hazel for a nice walk in the neighborhood, her favorite thing to do. Am definitely using Carolina again!”

“Excellent pet sitter. Highly recommended. Both cats were fed on time and daily pictures were sent. On top of that, both cats, the shy one and the friendly obe, were so calm when I came home. Obviously they felt secure and loved while I was gone. Kari-lynn also went out of her way to make sure floor was clean of this sand and ice, although that was not requesed or expected. Will definitely be requesting her again for future travel.”
“Alexandra did an amazing job with drop in visits with our cat, Francine. She handled all elements of Francine's care as discussed, was very communicative and sent pictures from each visit. Francine warned right up to her and we couldn't ask for more. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Carly is FABULOUS! She always leaves a detailed summary of her visits- which is huge with my senior dog and keeping track of bowel habits and tinkles. Carly walks with my girl in the yard and takes time for lots of pets. Carly pays attention to and adjusts for my dogs significant loss of hearing to avoid startling. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”
“Absolutely amazing! This was my first Rover booking & I cannot believe the peace of mind she gave me! Super friendly & prompt, & above all caring!! I can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Liz was great with our 2 cats! She did drop-in visits to ensure they were taken care of and had daily attention; she also contacted us throughout our absence and sent pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Lauren did a wonderful job with checking-in on our fur babies while we were away. She was always on time for the check-ins. Furthermore, she gave us a detailed report and pictures after each visit. I enjoyed knowing that my kitties were taken care of and thoroughly enjoyed my vacation because of that!”
“Gabby did an incredible job taking care of my cats while I was away! Not only was she attentive and loving, but she was also able to give my cat their medicine with no issues, which was a huge relief. She kept me updated with regular messages, photos, and videos, so I always knew my pet was in good hands. My cats seemed happy and well cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Gabby to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

I will provide a home away from home. I live in home in Chesterfield (23 Mile & Sugarbush/Seaden) with a beautiful fenced yard; only dogs up to 25 lbs.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I currently have 2 big dogs and 6 cats at my home. I’ve pet sat for friends and family and sometimes I come over just to see their fur babies.

I don’t like to rush or make them feel threatened by me. I often however, hit it off very well with pets and love to play with them! I have tons of acres at my home so my dogs like to run free or on a leash if needed.

I had a cleaning company before Covid but have always been in love with dogs and cats. I have two older children who don’t need me as much and can’t wait to start this journey into pet care. I am available Mon, Tues, We’d, Friday and every other Thursday all day for your pet care needs. Having 2 huskies I know the importance of making sure your pet is secure whether that’s in your yard or on a walk. Also making sure there’s nothing left out for them to get into when I leave your home!
About: I have been caring for animals since I was a young child. I started at 9 with bottle baby goats, added rabbits shortly after and have had many others since from from cats, dogs, birds, and Guinea pigs inside to chickens, goats, cows, and ponies outside along with various others. I currently have one indoor cat and one indoor dog, as well as cows, sheep, a pony, and a donkey. I feed all the feral and stray cats that show up at my barn and have learned a great deal about cat personalities from them. I often babysit my daughters three cats and ferret so have experience with caring for multiple pets at once. I work Tuesday thru Friday from 5:00am to 2:30 pm and I have about an hour of taking care of my animals each day. The rest of my time I have free to take care of your pets. I will be respectful of your individual animals personality and offer them as much or little physical attention as they want. I’ll make sure they have fresh clean food and water, keep their litter area clean, and can scoop or completely change out litter as needed.
About: I have been taking care of pets for my whole life wether it be my own or other peoples. I am going to school to be become a veterinarian and I love all animals. I have cared for a wide variety of animals from dogs and cats to snakes and birds, even large animals and live stock. I have very flexible hours and am available any day of the week with very good pricing. I am willing to stay at a home for pets or just do drop ins. I have extensive knowledge about animals and can get along with any species or breed. I have owned all types of animals and know the basics and extremes of owning pets so there is no worry about your pets being in the best hands!
About: I’ve watched friends, family, and neighbors pets since I was 11! I love watching, playing, walking, and bathing dogs! I have always been trusted with those I help and you should too! I am currently a part time student at Lansing Community College, so my weeks are very open to staying with your pets all day if needed!! I also am available for walks during the day or just stopping by to play and let them out!! I am staying with family who have two dogs that aren’t fully dog friendly so my services would only be available at your house only!
About: I have cared for my two older dogs for 7 years now! One is a 110 lb Labradoodle and the other is approximately a 10 lb Chihuahua mix, I have learned how to adapt to different dogs needs and even care for close friends’ dogs such as a Boxer, Pitbull Mix and more! I am confident in my ability and I can handle any size dog with the care and attention that they may need. I understand that these are the owners’ babies and I will do my absolute best to make sure that they are cared for in an attentive and loving manner! Regardless of the type, size, or energy level of any dog, I can promise that any individual needs will be met, and that I will return a happy and well cared for dog!

“I am in the hospital and my regular sitter needed to go away for the weekend. I booked and confirmed with her very easily. She was great with communication with both myself and the regular sitter who dropped my dog off and picked her up. She regularly updated me with photos of them on a walk and my dog looked very happy in them. Everything went great I would for sure use Angie again.”
“Amber made pick up and drop off quick and easy. She provided updates and photos/videos during our stay and accommodated us when we were running late. Would use her services again.”
“She is amazing!! Other boarders would send us maybe one pic a day. We got a load of pics three times a day. She had everything only thing we had to bring was food and the pup. She understands animals and their behaviors. Would recommend her to EVERYONE!!”
“Madison and Brandon were amazing dog sitters for Teddy. They were very patient and worked with him to get to know their three dogs. Very responsive and attentive to Teddy.”
“Sydney made our first vacation without our fur child a breeze! We felt completely relaxed and worry-free leaving our pup with her. She provided consistent text and photo updates and was very proactive with her care. Our pup absolutely loved her and was clearly very comfortable around her. We look forward to booking Sydney again!”
“Miranda was amazing and took great care of Otis! She responded quickly, sent me updates and is very friendly. Otis appears to have loved running with the other pups on her large property as he has been snoring since I picked him up! I would highly recommend Miranda!”

“Amanda watched our puppy Milo for the weekend, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Milo is full of energy, and Amanda was so great with his active puppy nature! She regularly sent us pictures and updates, and we could tell from every photo that he was having the best time—playing hard, staying happy, and feeling right at home with her family! That was so appreciated from this new dog mama! We are truly grateful for Amanda’s patience and attentiveness. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! She is wonderful!!”
“Britnie is absolutely amazing!! Being new to Michigan, we struggled with finding someone to take care of Luna while we had to leave for the weekend on a plane back to Florida. It’s hard to trust just anyone with taking care of your best friend! Especially being so far away. We gave Britnie a try as I had a good feeling. She assured me Luna was in good hands and to enjoy our vacation. She exceeded all of our expectations!!! I received message and picture updates about Luna all weekend which my family and I enjoyed and greatly appreciated! Britnie is just so sweet and gave us the comfort we needed and the love Luna needed. Luna especially had a blast with all the dogs and Britnies fam I seriously don’t have enough words to say how much we appreciate you! Luna says thank you for taking care of me :D I would love to come back again!”
“Jemily took care of our dog, Mandy, when we were in Ontario for a family reunion. We appreciated the nightly pics she sent of Mandy, and drop off and pick up was easy. We had a construction-related backup on the Blue Water Bridge on the way over from Michigan, and so we were quite late to drop our dog off, but Jemily was very communicative and reassured us that all was well. Our sense is that Mandy was comfortable there and enjoyed her time there. We would be happy to have Jemily watch her again if the opportunity arises in the future. Thanks Jemily and family!”
“We left our Georgie with Lisa for a week while we were out of town. Her communication was great and George seemed to enjoy himself! She sent updates and photos of him daily. We will be leaving George with Lisa again in the future 😊”

“Melissa and her dog, Willow, provided great care and company for Milo when he went there for a sleepover. She was more than happy for us to go for a visit before the sleepover and I could tell right away that Milo would be comfortable and happy. When we went back, he knew where we were and was excited to see them again. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Sandra took care of Erie overnight. She was very nice, kind, and reliable. She is a great sitter. Erie enjoyed a lot staying at her place. I would like to ask her again when I visit the area again.”
