“Katlynn is amazing! Zoe always has a great time when she’s with Katlynn. Zoe stayed with her for a full week and she even bathed Zoe before I picked her up, which was really sweet of her! Will definitely book her every time.”

“Rex was a great sitter for my dog, Roo. He was communicative and gave me plenty of updates and pictures. Roo is always a little timid at Rover stays, so he made sure she had her own space and was introduced to the dogs slowly. She was also a happy girl (and not anxious at all) when I picked her up so I know she had a good time :)”

“Janelle is outstanding. We have used rover in many states during our travels through the last several years as full time travelers and Janelle is the best!! Great communication and care. Would seek her out whenever possible.”

“This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy we found Suraya, she was amazing! She kept our golden, Charlie for 7 days and provided updates and pictures the entire time. He was just as happy when we picked him up as he was when we dropped him off. We will definitely be using Suraya again for our future dog sitting needs and highly recommend her to anyone looking for care ☺️”


“Kelli was amazing! Archie was part of her family during his stay. The fenced in yard was the perfect place for Archie's zoomies, and Kelli send frequent pictures and updates. We will definitely be visiting again!”

“Roman was fantastic watching our little Lilo. This was her second time staying with him and his family. They always are excited to have her. She gets walked and they send photos daily. Highly recommend”

“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.”

“Christina and her family took such great care of Oliver during our recent extended family vacation. Christina was an excellent communicator and was very flexible with adjusting Oliver’s care instructions when needed during his stay. We are so grateful that Oliver had a place to stay that gave him the same TLC he receives from us at home.”

“Deb was absolutely AMAZING! We had our puppy for just about a month and we’re needing an option besides boarding him. Deb was available last minute for a weekend trip and he loved her and his friends. She was super great with puppy needs and demands. Her house is set up perfect for doggies!”

“Amanda was amazing. This was my first Rover experience and the first time being away from my puppy for more than 15 minutes (vet appointments). She totally put my mind at ease with her love of animals and the multiple pictures and a video. Oakley had a great time playing with Amanda’s daughter and two dogs. She came home happy and tired from all her activity- which was appreciated, because Oakley is a high energy puppy. Amanda was also really understanding when Oakley had an accident (still a puppy) and it helped a great deal that Amanda’s dogs also use the potty bells (something Oakley uses at home to let me know when it’s tile to go out). With Amanda’s help Oakley started using the potty bells there too (and knowing Oakley’s love of the outside and how much she loved the fenced in yard...she probably ran poor Amanda ragged ringing the bells! ?) I would definitely recommend Amanda and hope to have the opportunity to book her again!”

“Anastasia did a great job with Daisy and sent pictures every day. Her dog River was very friendly to Daisy and they played a lot together. I will definitely use Anastasias care again should we need dog sitting in the future.”

“Averi took great care of my Remy boy! She is a kind and thoughtful sitter and very easy to communicate with. She sent pictures during Remy’s stay at her home and assured me he was happy and well taken care of. Prior to Remy’s overnight stay, we met up for a meet and greet. Averi listened to my explanations of Remy’s needs and had no issues understanding and managing his anxiety and reactivity. She made me feel at ease. We will definitely be reaching out again!”

“Kailee took excellent care of Milo. He was loved and well cared for. She sent frequent photo updates during his stay and was fast to respond to any questions before and during his stay and was helpful and accommodating.”

“Jenn was great with my little old ladies. She was flexible with drop off/pick up and sent me the cutest photos and updates. I know they were in good hands and got lots of great outside time while I was away for work! And Peanut is the cutest little pup!”

“We had Tasha watch our Molly and were very happy with the attention and care given to her. She always kept us updated with messages and pictures of her stay and happiness. Tasha went out of her way to make molly feel part of her family. Set up a meet and greet to introduce her dog and family to us. Definitely recommend and will be using her again. Accommodated with us picking molly up on short notice”

“Suraya did her best to meet the needs of my cats despite not physically seeing them (typical cats). She had an emergency but did everything in her power to make it right with me.”


About: What sets me apart is the care, attention, and trust I bring to every pet I look after. I understand that pets are family, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and respect I would want for my own. I take pride in being dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to following each pet’s unique routine. I’m comfortable providing extra care for senior pets, pets with special needs, and those who may need medications or additional patience and reassurance. I also believe the little things matter—from keeping food and water areas clean, refreshing litter boxes, maintaining a tidy home, and noticing small changes in your pet’s behavior that may be important. My biggest priority is communication. I love sending regular photo and video updates so you can feel connected and confident that your pets are happy, safe, and receiving the attention they deserve. I don’t just watch pets—I build trust with them and their families.
About: I’ve owned and have taken care of multiple animals throughout the years! From house animals to some animals. I love our furry friends! :) . I’m working a part-time job currently where I work every other weekend, I’ll be able to stop in throughout the day on the days I do and don’t work! I have 2 friendly dogs, 2 friendly cats, a rabbit and a rooster! I keep them all safe and healthy, and I have a great bond with them!
“My husband and I had Jillian check in on my cat, Tucker, while we were away, and she did an amazing job! She was able to capture some really cute photos and I could tell Tucker was in great hands. Thank you so much!!!”

“Pamela did an excellent job looking after my cats while I was gone! I loved the many pictures she took and her thorough updates. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!”


About: I’ve been my family/friends go to cat sitter for 15 years. I have experience with cats of all ages, sizes and energy levels. I’ll make sure to make your cats feel so comfortable and loved that even the shyest of cats will make an appearance to greet me!
About: I work from home and would love to hangout with your pets! I’ve always had pets in the home from cats to birds to dogs. I have had a ten year old cat who had diabetes so I’m trained in injections and medications. My dogs back in Texas are pit bulls so I’m used to large lovable doggies :) I currently have a one year old golden doodle who loves to play with friends! I work from home so pets don’t go unattended and always have someone to hangout with. I am free most weekends and my significant other is also home to help out with high energy pups. :) I have walking trails around my apartment and wooded areas out back. My partner and I love to go on walks when weather permitting and would love to take your furry friend with us.
“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: Neighbors and clients have trusted me in their home to safely care for their cats & I have done just that. It’s a joy and an honor to be able to care for animals this way. It’s a natural dopamine booster for me, as well!
About: I had a hamster, mice, and fish. I grew up on a farm surrounded by cats and a lovely farm dog. I had a pet dog who sadly passed last year, but he was my everything for the 5 years I had him. I am tired of working in the fast food industry so I would love the opportunity to leave and take care of animals full time. Anything and everything they need! I will take them for long walks, play with them, give them the extra love! They're family and deserve the best care they can get. <3

About: During my current job we’ve had a kitten boom and with that , kitten sickness. I’ve saved around 32 kittens so far from losing their eyes and I’m very passionate about every and all cats. I’d love to meet your furry(or not) baby! I never would have guessed I’d be a cat lady but the life chose me.

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: Throughout my eight years of researching pets, I have come to appreciate cats for their historical connection with humans. I admire their agility, as well as the distinct sounds and movements they use to communicate with us. They are remarkably precise and quite beautiful creatures. As a quiet individual, I believe they would thrive in a peaceful home environment.

About: I’ve had at least one pet cat for as long as I can remember and I truly think cats are the best. I currently live and travel with my senior rescue cat and bff, Ducky. Ducky has FIV and has required a lot of care over the years, and I’ve been happy to do it. I respect the unique personalities and boundaries of all cats and love meeting new kitties. Oh, and I’m more than used to the occasional slappiness of any feline friend lol!

“Kristopher and his family were so wonderful with our pup. They were so welcoming to her and had great communication throughout her stay. Would highly recommend, and will be booking again in the future!”

About: Hi, I'm Jill! Dogs have been part of my life since I can remember. I've spent years caring for and connecting with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Friends and family often call me the "dog whisperer" because I seem to naturally build trust with dogs, whether they're shy, anxious, energetic, independent, or just need a little extra patience. I also have a special appreciation for senior dogs and understand their unique needs, routines, and comfort requirements. Your pup will be welcomed into a loving home with Sunny, my friendly chocolate Lab, a large-fenced yard, a doggie door, and plenty of supervised playtime and attention throughout the day. There is also optional swimming in the river behind my home. As a full-time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule, I'm home or nearby most of the time, so your dog will enjoy companionship, exercise, and plenty of affection rather than being left alone for long periods. I believe every dog is an individual. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, cuddle, or simply relax in a calm environment, I'll take the time to learn their personality and routine, so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you're away. My home is where dogs aren't just watched—they're welcomed, understood, and loved. 🐾 I am a fully time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule. I spend much of my day working from home or close by, which means your dog won't be left along for long periods. I have a fenced-in back yard and one very friendly female Chocolate Lab named Sunny who loves to play. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs sleep in my room in a crate or on the floor at night
“Kathy has been wonderful taking care of my two doggos. She really works to understand my dogs' needs and what they're trying to tell her. She really treats them like there her owns dogs and part of the family. She has been nothing short of amazing in helping me curb some unwanted behaviors at home. When I go out of town in the future, I will be at ease knowing she's taking care of them.”

“Rex is very easy going and flexible. My dog went right to him without hesitation. She had a great time playing with his dogs and was very tired when she came home. I will use Rex again without hesitation.”

“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!”


“Kelli was great to work with and very responsive. I appreciated updates throughout the day with pictures that showed my dogs were having a great time with her! I hope to rebook with her in the future! 🐾”

“Maggie was incredibly accommodating and patient with me and last minute request. My husky loved playing with her Luna, and I love the idea of her being in a home instead of a concrete kennel. I also liked that her sons gave my pets attention while they were there. 100% would recommend Maggie to anyone!”

“SHERRI IS AMAZING! She took my booking last minute and was SO attentive! She has a lovely dog Goro loved playing with and a fenced in yard but she also gave him walks which I thought was so amazing. 10/10 best Rovers experience I’ve had :)”

About: Hello! Thank you for considering me for one of the most important roles in your pets life. I grew up with pets, volunteered at the humane society taking dogs out for runs, and now continue a life of advocacy for all animals! I currently work with both cat and dog rescues and pet sit often for friends and family. Having used pet sitting services before, I understand what it is like to put your trust in someone else - and will make you and your pet my number one priority. I will always ensure you receive updates and confirmation of the fun your pet is having. I look forward to connecting and spending time with your fur baby! I am a mom to an active toddler. We love getting outside as much as we can, and staying busy inside when the weather isn’t so inviting. We are in an apartment community that has safe sidewalks and lots of green areas (or snow!) for dogs to explore. We live on the second floor so your dog should be comfortable with stairs as well.

I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for any pet care needed on weekdays and weekends! In my own home, I have one cat who loves to lie around the house during the day and snuggle next to me at night!

About: No dogs too big, no dogs too small, I love them all! Hi I’m Alaina! I’ve been my family and friends go to pet sitter for over 15 years. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and energy levels. I take pride in assuring I am your dogs new best friend by the time I leave your home. I have a reputation for providing top notch care for every animal I have the pleasure of watching. With my reliability, excellent communication skills, and my deep sense of responsibility, Im here to ensure your animal gets the love and attention they deserve. I work part time Monday-Thursday. I am able to provide full time pet care Thursday-Sunday. Whether that is staying in your home full time or doing drop ins as needed. I am capable in doing anything you ask of me. Whether that is administering medications, feeding three times a day, taking your dog for walks or just giving them the time and attention they deserve.
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 have years of experience caring for animals, from dogs to cats & rabbits. Pet care is an area that I am thrilled to be now pursuing on a higher level. Animals have captured my heart for years, and this is something that will not change now or in the future. I am someone who pays attention to details and always has animal welfare at the forefront of my mind. I do not doubt that I am someone to be trusted with your animals. I look forward to potentially working with you! I am fortunate in that I have a fairly flexible routine currently. This allows for pet care jobs and responsibilities to be easier to take on. I am happy to watch your animals in your home if all checks out. What might it look like? I could stop by once or twice a day (‘depending) to make sure your pet(s) are well and everything is running smoothly. For example, I just wrapped up pet sitting for someone I know in the area & she gave me a spare key for her place. This is just what made sense & what she was comfortable with at the time. She left some realistic instructions for me & all went well. It was a win-win situation. You just need help with dog walking? I am happy to consider that as well!

About: Hello my name is Justin L, I am 39 years, single, no kids and work full time. I lost my dog about 5 years ago and it was very hard to deal with. I am not ready to commit to another one yet, so I figured I might as well get my dog fix by helping others out on their vacation or their busy schedules. I always grew up with dogs and have had them all from small to large. Dogs are a mans best friend is the most true statement and I will always provide the best care for those dogs. Life would be so boring without dogs in it. I hope at some point in the future to get my own dog. I am available after I am off work. Depending where I’m working and where you are located I can possibly swing by during lunch time as well. I like to listen to what the owners say as far as what their preference for how they want their pet to behave. Any parameters with the house they typically write them up and I keep them updated throughout the day with photos of the pets.
“Absolutely super. I would not hesitate to use her again if we were in the area. Traveling thru and went over to Mackinac for the day and decided to leave the dog and wanted her to have some walks and stimulation.”

About: I have 2 dogs of my own that I have raised since they were puppies. My family has always had dogs that I helped out with throughout my life as well. Very flexible schedule and able to accommodate a lot of different times for people with busier schedules! Currently working as a real estate agent and work from home most days so I have plenty of flexibility to do drop ins and walks as necessary! I will come to you to check in or walk your pets. I will spend a minimum of 30 minutes with them each visit. I have 2 dogs of my own that I dedicate my time to and would treat your pet as I do my own
About: I have years of experience. I have worked with aggressive a and hard to handle animals as well. Medications. Walks. Baths. Cuddles. Play time. Excitement. I’m available 100%. I am a very active person. I enjoy long walks and going to the creek a lot. I do not currently have a job. I am excited to play with your pups and take good care of them and lots of outside time. Lots of attention and affection. Lots of outside time and walks and playing. If medications are needed, I can do that as well. Lots of cuddles.

About: I have 5 dogs of my own, ranging from a cattle dog to a pitbull.I have no problem taking care of any type of animal and I have experience in all fields of care, including bathing, walking, nail-trimming, and more. I’m free from 6am-11pm on weekdays! I do work full-time but my boss is lenient and he’d have no problem with me tending to your furry friends! I personally have 5 dogs in a non-fenced in yard but they are all very well trained. I would prefer to keep your animals in the comfort of their own home though due to my dogs being very playful, if your dogs are comfortable being in a high-energy setting it would be no problem but they don’t need added stress from my rowdy bunch.
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life and recently became a dog-father to my 50lb poodle mix, Maggie about a year ago. I can appreciate the love we have for our fur-babies and how they are a part of the family. As a recent WMU DPT grad, I am in need of a little extra cash while studying full time for my licensure exam. I would love to be able to care for your dog in a flexible way that allows me time to study! As a recent DPT graduate from WMU, I am "full time" studying for my licensure exam at the end of April. Luckily, this gives me plenty of time to be flexible and care for dogs during study breaks, or staying in house as necessary. I live in a home with 2 medium-large sized dogs that get along well. My dog, Maggie, is a very well mannered poodle mix that gets a long with every dog we meet. We would love puppy play dates at the local Richland park, or Maggie can just as easily stay at home.

“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.”

“Christina and her family took such great care of Oliver during our recent extended family vacation. Christina was an excellent communicator and was very flexible with adjusting Oliver’s care instructions when needed during his stay. We are so grateful that Oliver had a place to stay that gave him the same TLC he receives from us at home.”

“Amanda was amazing. This was my first Rover experience and the first time being away from my puppy for more than 15 minutes (vet appointments). She totally put my mind at ease with her love of animals and the multiple pictures and a video. Oakley had a great time playing with Amanda’s daughter and two dogs. She came home happy and tired from all her activity- which was appreciated, because Oakley is a high energy puppy. Amanda was also really understanding when Oakley had an accident (still a puppy) and it helped a great deal that Amanda’s dogs also use the potty bells (something Oakley uses at home to let me know when it’s tile to go out). With Amanda’s help Oakley started using the potty bells there too (and knowing Oakley’s love of the outside and how much she loved the fenced in yard...she probably ran poor Amanda ragged ringing the bells! ?) I would definitely recommend Amanda and hope to have the opportunity to book her again!”

“Anastasia did a great job with Daisy and sent pictures every day. Her dog River was very friendly to Daisy and they played a lot together. I will definitely use Anastasias care again should we need dog sitting in the future.”

“Averi took great care of my Remy boy! She is a kind and thoughtful sitter and very easy to communicate with. She sent pictures during Remy’s stay at her home and assured me he was happy and well taken care of. Prior to Remy’s overnight stay, we met up for a meet and greet. Averi listened to my explanations of Remy’s needs and had no issues understanding and managing his anxiety and reactivity. She made me feel at ease. We will definitely be reaching out again!”

“Kailee took excellent care of Milo. He was loved and well cared for. She sent frequent photo updates during his stay and was fast to respond to any questions before and during his stay and was helpful and accommodating.”

“We had Tasha watch our Molly and were very happy with the attention and care given to her. She always kept us updated with messages and pictures of her stay and happiness. Tasha went out of her way to make molly feel part of her family. Set up a meet and greet to introduce her dog and family to us. Definitely recommend and will be using her again. Accommodated with us picking molly up on short notice”

“We always have ease of mind when leaving our pups with Jacob. He does a great job of communicating and prioritizing the safety of the dogs. We can count on him giving our dogs playtime, exercise, and much affection!”

“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!”
