We hadn’t left Daryl overnight before, but Taya had everything he needed to feel comfortable, and he was so happy to have two doggie friends to play with in Taya’s huge yard. Taya sent multiple pictures each day and was always quick to respond to any message from me. We are so happy to have found such a great caregiver for our pup!”
“Kelli did such an AMAZING job with Ellie, I was so anxious and she sent me updates multiple times! I could not have asked for anyone better to take care of my fur baby. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
About: A calm, loving home with a fenced yard—and 30 years of real dog experience to back it up. Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. Two years ago, I lost my beloved shepherd. While that was incredibly hard, it inspired me to open my home and heart to other dogs. Since then, I’ve been caring for dogs for family and friends, as well as volunteering with foster dogs—helping them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they wait for their forever homes. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore, and I don’t have any pets of my own right now. That means your dog gets my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment—perfect for dogs who prefer their own space or need a little extra comfort. I treat every dog like they’re my own and tailor care to their unique personality—whether that’s active playtime, relaxing companionship, or a steady routine. You can count on me to provide a safe, loving, and dependable home filled with attention, affection, and plenty of tail wags. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be home often and adjust my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be part of a calm, structured, and caring environment. I provide a calm, safe, and loving home where dogs feel relaxed and happy. They get potty breaks, playtime, and fenced-yard fun, and if I’m at work, crating is never more than 4 hours, with breaks on lunch or as needed. With no other pets at home, your dog gets plenty of one-on-one attention and care like family.

I received so many pictures and videos of him, it was very appreciated and put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her! My dog was whooped when he came home from having fun playing with her dogs. He slept the whole rest of the day and we LOVE a sleepy german shepherd lol”

“Alex was great! He was very communicative about my pets and let me know what time he was arriving and leaving each day.

He also brought in packages from our mail securely in the house, which was extra helpful.”

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.

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 have been around animals most of my life and currently care for several dogs of my own on our 20-acre farm just outside Hastings, Michigan. Dogs staying with me are treated like part of the family and live in a home environment rather than a kennel setting. Because I have experience managing multiple dogs at once, I understand pack behavior, supervision, feeding routines, and how to safely separate dogs when needed. I also have fenced areas, pasture space, and wooded land where dogs can safely explore and exercise. My goal is to provide a calm, safe place where dogs can run, play, relax, and get plenty of attention while their owners are away. I provide home-style dog daycare on our peaceful 20-acre farm just outside Hastings, Michigan. Because I care for dogs from home, I am able to supervise them throughout the day. Dogs enjoy time indoors with the family as well as supervised outdoor playtime on the property. I keep daycare small (maximum of 8 guest dogs) so every dog receives attention, exercise, and a calm environment. Dogs spend their day playing, exploring, relaxing, and socializing with the pack. Dogs in my care stay in a home environment rather than a kennel facility. They spend time indoors with the family and also enjoy supervised outdoor time on our farm, including fenced areas and open space to explore. Safety is very important, so I carefully monitor interactions between dogs and separate them if needed. Dogs may be crated briefly during feeding or rest times to prevent food aggression and allow quiet breaks. I limit daycare to a small group to keep the environment safe and manageable.
“Kelli took care of both of our Labradors for a long, snowy day, and she was wonderful! Great communication and fun photos, and our dogs were so well cared for. It is so reassuring to leave our pups with someone who has so much experience caring for dogs.”
“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!”
About: Hi there! We're Sandy & Brad (& 16yo daughter, Clara) from Snowy River Farm in Freeport, MI. Our family has provided trusted pet & farm sitting service in the Kent, Barry & Ionia County areas for 6+ years. We've always had animals around whether it be dogs, cats, chickens, or sheep! We are a homeschooling family and we also work from home. Someone is almost always here! We're available to board dogs anytime we're not on vacation ourselves! We promise to treat your pet like family here at Snowy River Farm! Your pet will have the lower walkout level of the home to themselves. Brad works from home on that same level and we are all around very often. Our own small dogs will stay on a separate floor and not co-mingle your pet (unless specifically agreed by both parties). We can crate your dog(s) if that's your preference. Otherwise, a comfy chair with a blankie is just fine! ;-) *We prefer to do meet & greets first for everyone's benefit. Each dog we care for gets patient, loving, one-on-one attention tailored just for them. We’ll keep you connected with daily photo updates and little stories from their stay. If you want a sitter who treats your dog like family—offering room to roam, a peaceful farm setting, and plenty of cuddles—we’d love to welcome them into our home.
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 work and have a dog of my own. But other then work 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.
“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.”

“We needed a last minute option for the day, and now have a great place to take our active dog. Really appreciated the outdoor and indoor space Charlie had at Kristopher’s and also his knowledge of dogs and their needs. Our super active dog settled in right away for the whole day. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up on and farm and I’ve had animals my whole life. I believe animals make the best company. As of right now I only have a grand puppy. I recently lost my mini schnauzer she was 17 so I may be adding a new member to our family soon. I would like to spend sometime with your animals and spoil them. I live inKalamazoo in a pet friendly condo complex with not only an extensive yard but with walking trails near by. I’m very comfortable with opening my home to Your pet and making them feel like they belong. I already have plenty of toys and things to keep them busy. I regularly babysit my grand puppy who is use to having other dogs around. I would really enjoy getting to know you and your pet, hope to accommodate you soon. Thank you Trina
“I honestly cant say enough good things about Kim and her family!! She is amazing with our pups and always goes above and beyond! It’s amazing to be able to travel without stressing if our pup is okay or not, when she’s with Kim we know she’s going to have an amazing time!!”
“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!!”
“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!”
“Great service very commutative also informative dependable excellent service. My pet is very happy. She’s very good with animals. Great service. You won’t be mad her prices is way far lower than any other me and my pet is grateful”

About: I have watched cats and dogs since I was a child for family, friends and neighbors. I enjoy watching their personalities when they are excited I am currently doing an online course and have plenty of time to play with your animal babies.

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.
About: I have been around many different kinds of animals growing up. I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, rabbits and other small rodents and reptiles. I’m currently working another job full time in the afternoons but I am happy and eager to accept any visits from the early morning until 12:30pm. Overnight visits are also available if I am able to have at least a weeks notice, thank you! Note: I cannot accept requests from clients that live on or near dirt roads in the winter as my car cannot make it through! As your pet sitter it’s my goal to make sure your pets as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I would love to know their routines and personalities so I can care for them as best as possible! All animals in the home need to be included in the request! Cats bunnies and smaller animals in the home during overnight stays must be included in your request.
About: I’ve been helping my parents raise dogs since I was around 10 years old, our first dog being a collie we rescued as she wasn’t being treated well with her initial owners. We took her in and got her cleaned up, took care of the fleas she had, found her a good diet, and gave her lots of love and attention through it all. We took her on camping trips, out on the water to go fishing, out on walks and to get pup cups at the ice cream shop, her favorite place being my granny’s house. Alongside her, we raised three more dogs when they were puppies, each one two years apart. 2 of them are Australian shepherds, and one is a husky, all girls and grew to form their own little pack, respecting each other’s place and playing happily in a big fenced in back yard. We supported our collie till her last breath as she was elderly, and even as she was so old, she always had her usual, laid back and quirky personality. Even now, I continue to help my parents take care of our dogs, as they’re not just pets, they’re our family, our fur babies, even in they’re old stages of life, they’ll always be our little babies in our hearts. So rest assured, your fur baby will be 110% safe and cared for with me, maybe even a bit spoiled! I’m currently looking into part time or less demanding full time jobs, and I’ll be actively looking until I land one, until then, I should be mostly free, and I’ll definitely keep my schedule updated as life moves forward and changes. As of now, I have appointments on Wednesday, I try to keep them consistent each week, but they’re subject to change due to scheduling. With specific instructions written on paper, I have no issues accommodating to your pet’s needs in your home! I’m respectful during visits in others homes, treating them as my own and keeping spaces clean and tidy. With proper cleaning tools, I can clean up accidents on hard surfaces or rugs, I may need a demonstration on how to use a specific cleaning machine or vacuum depending on how complicated it is. I’m not allergic to any animal, or any breed, so pet hair doesn’t bother me! If need be, I am able to administer oral medications with proper instruction and demonstration. On walks I make sure to keep dogs close to me and away from the road, I carry doggy bags, and on hot days, I’ll carry a little folded up bowl that I can poor water in, so your baby stays hydrated!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, my dogs are my babies and I would treat yours the same. Fully fenced in yard to play fetch in and run around I’m currently a stay at home dog dad so they will never be left alone, always ready to take outside and let play with toys.

About: I've grown up with all kinds of animals, from hamsters to horses and especially have never lived anywhere without dogs or cats.

I have a very flexible schedule allowing me to spend as much time with them as possible. I'm currently working from home and have complete flexibility on time, so I can spend as much time as possible with animals during a sit. I'm very active and I walk, run, and/or hike every day, so I love being able to take dogs along with me on adventures, but I can also dedicate time to hanging out in a home. With such a flexible schedule, I can work with the needs of every different pet. I have a flexible routine and can adapt to different needs. I enjoy being on the go and will happily take pets out on adventures with me, but I can also appreciate staying in and having a relaxing day with a pet!
About: I have had all different kinds of animals since I was a little kid! I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up along with many other animals! I love all animals.

“Jillian. was perfect with our puppy, Hershey. Hershey has a lot of energy and when Jillian. walked her she was so tired that the dog actually fell asleep on Jillian.‘s foot while we were chatting after the walk. This is what I had hoped for! I definitely recommend Jillian. as a very qualified and capable doggy care person.”
About: I have always had animals every since I was young, from cats and dogs, to fish and hamsters. As soon as I moved out I got two cats, later on I met my now husband who had two dogs, growing our family. Animals bring me joy and comfort, I have pet sitted family friends pets, neighbors chickens, and I have also worked in pet retail where I grew my knowledge in animal care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine since I’ve always had animals of my own. I’m currently unemployed, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention, playtime, care, and companionship they deserve while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I believe everything starts with communication and understanding each pet’s normal routine, preferences, and personality. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for by keeping feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions consistent with what they’re used to at home. I also believe in keeping owners updated with messages and photos when needed, so they can feel reassured and connected while they’re away. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care while respecting both the pet and the client’s home.

About: A calm, loving home with a fenced yard—and 30 years of real dog experience to back it up. Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. Two years ago, I lost my beloved shepherd. While that was incredibly hard, it inspired me to open my home and heart to other dogs. Since then, I’ve been caring for dogs for family and friends, as well as volunteering with foster dogs—helping them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they wait for their forever homes. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore, and I don’t have any pets of my own right now. That means your dog gets my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment—perfect for dogs who prefer their own space or need a little extra comfort. I treat every dog like they’re my own and tailor care to their unique personality—whether that’s active playtime, relaxing companionship, or a steady routine. You can count on me to provide a safe, loving, and dependable home filled with attention, affection, and plenty of tail wags. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be home often and adjust my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be part of a calm, structured, and caring environment. I provide a calm, safe, and loving home where dogs feel relaxed and happy. They get potty breaks, playtime, and fenced-yard fun, and if I’m at work, crating is never more than 4 hours, with breaks on lunch or as needed. With no other pets at home, your dog gets plenty of one-on-one attention and care like family.
“Becky is great! My dog comes home happy, healthy and tired out from playing. We love getting all the pics and updates from our pups vacation ☺️ I would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Thank you, Suraya, for all your care with Baxter! We appreciated the daily updates and pictures while we were on vacation. He seemed so comfy and happy while with you. We are grateful for your level of great care with him.”
“Sarah was wonderful from start to finish! She watched my GSD overnight on NYE and was wonderful with communication leading up to and then while he was with her. I received so many pictures and videos of him, it was very appreciated and put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her! My dog was whooped when he came home from having fun playing with her dogs. He slept the whole rest of the day and we LOVE a sleepy german shepherd lol”
“Anne was great with Murphy! He stayed for a week and I received picture and status updates daily. Murphy was well taken care of and he loved playing with their dog as well. I would definitely request Anne to watch Murphy anytime we needed a sitter. She is highly recommended!”
“Ellie was amazing! We had a last minute trip come up as well as cancelled flights and she was so kind through all the changes. She made sure we felt comfortable with Ember’s first stay there. Even though Ember was there for only one night, she came home tired and happy which showed how much Ellie played with her and gave her attention. 100% recommend Ellie for any dog sitting needs!”
“My Sophie is high energy and still young dog and she was willing to take the challenge. Sydney was very kind and put my fears to rest. She sent pictures several times a day with updates. She has a large fenced in yard and also took Sophie on walks, just fantastic!”
“When we found ourselves in a pickle, we turned to Rover to find a trustworthy, dog educated person to watch our female GSD Stiorra. Not only were we searching last minute but we needed someone who was comfortable and had experience with females in heat. Ofcourse our girl would go into heat when we have nonrefundable tickets. Haha! I put our situation out to a couple different sitters on Rover. Kaylee was the first to respond and had such enthusiasm that I knew she was our person! She assured me that she had experience with females in heat and with doggy diapers. We did a meet and greet and the rest is history! Stiorra had a blast. Kaylee treated her as if she was her own. And Stiorra found a new friend in Oliver the great dane. I can't express how thankful I am to have found Kaylee. We look forward to having her watch Stiorra again!”
