Personalized care for your dog or cat - Horton
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Horton
“Highly recommend Amber! Our dogs looked so happy each time she sent pictures or videos, she has a great fenced in yard for them to run around in and even allows dogs on furniture and beds. Hands down my dogs favorite part I’m sure! Her sweet daughter even bought my dogs a toy, they love their new “baby”. Thank you Amber!!”
“Brooklyn was great. Sent plenty of pictures. Ammo was a little timid at first. Brooklyn sent me picture and kept me updated on his comfortability progression and it didn't take long. Work recommend her for sure!”
“They took good care of my pup. They welcomed us in their home and made sure Snuggz was accommodated. They were even so kind to provide a bowl since I forgot to bring one. The communication was also great when needed. I would recommend”
“Rodney and his puppy crew were amazing! He sent pictures and gave updates to let me know that Marshmallow was comfortable and well cared for. Our little girl is looking forward to visiting again!”
“Best sitter ever! Great person. Took great care and sent plenary pics. Really loves animals. I recommend her to anybody that loves there pet. She loves them like her own kids!”
“Belle was very wel cadred for ad had a great time at Krista's. She and her husband bonded quickly with her and made her feel at home. . Belle had a blast playing with the household dogs in a huge fenced yard.”
“I felt very confident leaving my dog with Jenny. She related well to him and took him for a walk and ent pictures. She was very easy to work with and I could tell she really liked my dog. I am so happy to have found such a great dog sitter!”
“Everything went very well. I will be taking Buttons to April again. It was his first overnight and it was 3 nights. I bet he didn't think I was coming back. He was strange the first night, but back to normal the next morning. Can't thank you enough April.”
“Anne was a wonderful dog sitter. She listened to the idiosyncrasies of my pup and understood that I wasn't being crazy pet owner. She kept him very busy and spoiled him with time and scritches. I would definitely recommend her.”
“I'm so grateful I found Coddy & Byron to take care of my "anxious" pup while I was traveling for work. They gave her extra attention & kept in touch with photos and video to give me peace of mind. Highly recommend them.”
“Great experience!!! Nicole was amazing and I was very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Open communication and she sent me several pictures. Will definitely use Nicole again if I need a dog sitter.”
“Kathy was terrific with our dog. We got texts and pictures daily letting us know how things were going. She was also very accommodating with our drop off and pick up. Our family will definitely use Kathy again in the future.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a more loving and caring dog sitter for our two dogs. Sonya and her family actively gave 100% excellent care. It started out as a weekend, and by necessity, ended up being more than a week long job. The entire time that our dogs were there, we received regular communications and photos of the dogs enjoying time outside, and indoors with the family. If you’re looking for someone who give your dog everything that they need, Sonya is the answer. Should we ever need a dog sitter again, we know where we’re going. Huge thank you to you Donya and your family!”
“Robin took such good care of my babies Loki and Morgan. And even on short notice for a last minute wedding I had to go to in Washington state. She sent awesome updates on how they were doing. We really appreciate you taking such good care of them. I highly recommend her to watch your fur babies.”
“Katie took good care of my dog, Tilly, for the weekend. She sent daily photos and updates and opened her home for Tilly’s stay. Tilly seemed comfortable and enjoyed playing with toys. I’d recommend Katie and her family for dog sitting.”
“Great thanks to the wonderful job Christina and Jennifer did taking in our Moose during the Thanksgiving holiday period. They showed him excellent care, provided frequent pictures, allowed him to socialize (as best he could) with other dogs, and their rural farm property provided unending new interesting things for him to sniff both in their large back yard and on their "pack walks". Would definitely consider boarding Moose with them again!”

Cat caregivers near you - Horton
“Rachelle loves pets. She is great with administering medication and goes above and beyond with care. My dog and cats know they will be spoiled when she comes over. She takes wonderful photos of them too!”
“April was very attentive to my animals needs. She went above and beyond to assure everyone was well cared for! Two cats, a box turtle and a 100 gallon aquarium full of fish. Exceptional Communication! Highly Recommend!”
“Hunter did a great job on the first drop-in visit for my elderly, diabetic cat. She was very caring and attentive, and Cane was in perfect shape when I returned home. Hunter sent cute pics and a detailed report. I highly recommend her, and hope she'll be available next time I need a sitter!”
“I honestly couldnt be more thankful for Jenny. She watched my cat over the chirstmas holidays and she treated and took care of my baby the way I would have taken care of hers.She sent pictures, responded back every time I text & I was even luck to have made a friend in her. I will absolutely be booking her again if I ever need too . Thank you so much Jenny!!”
“Veronica did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 cats that don’t get along with each other. She was always at our home when she said she would be, sent pictures and in general showed she cared. She did a great job for us. One of our cats is old and ailing and her notes told details about her. I would totally recommend her to anyone and would use her again. I already gave her a tip for such good work.”
“Brooklyn is super sweet and was very communicative which I really appreciate! I’ve never used Rover or any other site to find someone to watch my baby (my elderly cat) so I was pretty anxious, but Brooklyn was great and I will definitely be booking her again if I need someone to watch my baby!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and kittens since I was a little girl. I had a cat named Princess who always had litters of kittens. I did so much researched at such a young age because it wasn’t just some babies born, this was life being born on this Earth. It was a blessing and Miracle. Cats have such a funny personality. You never know what to expect.
“Brittany, is amazing!!! She took great care of our Bullet. She sent photos daily and let me know he was fed and happy with every visit. Brittany, will definitely be hired for future vacations. Thanks Brittany!!!!”
About: I have always had cats and dogs. As an adult, I have adopted multiple senior dogs and let them live out their last months and years in a calm, loving home. At gatherings, I’m the person who can usually be found holding the host’s cat or playing with their dog. I love everything about caring for pets and thought this would be a great thing to do in my spare time. As a teacher, I have a nice regular schedule that allows me to be available on weekends as well as all summer long. Evening care is also considered depending on the need! I can carefully and respectfully enter your home and care for your pets. Whether they need a meal, a potty break, a snuggle, or a walk; whatever you request, I can deliver. I understand the importance of being extremely careful not to let a pet get loose as this is something I worry about when I travel. I always enter and exit the home carefully. Your fur baby is the most important thing to me.
About: I have been a cat owner since 2020 and understand the concerns many cat parents have when trusting a sitter in their home. I am happy to provide references, and my own well-cared-for pets reflect my dedication to responsible and compassionate care.
About: I currently have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own and love helping care for other animals. I have experience with high energy dogs, as well as senior cats and dogs. I am now a young 40 something mom and professional who has had pets my entire life! I LOVE animals! I am typically available to provide care in the evenings and weekends, sometimes at lunchtime depending on location, and for extended vacation stays. I only care for other pets in their own homes so I take guidance from you and your pet. Tell me what preferences you have and what your pet's routine is and I will follow that. :)
About: I have fed and walked a Labrador retriever, Belgian shepherd, pomchi, beagle and two domestic American shorthairs. If you want to walk your cat, I am your guy! My availability would consist of it being 4pm to 10pm throughout the day; I can check on your fur baby or babies during those times. In my day to day life, I can cut my dog and cat’s nails. I can crate your cat or dog if it is necessary.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Horton
About: Your dog will be my dog while in my care. I am a huge animal lover who has always made my animals a part of my family, not just an animal. Starting May 4th, I will be training for a new job. My training hours will be 8-5, if you can work around those time please reach out. My yard is not fenced so your babies will only be outside when I am out there with them, leashed if required. I do not agree with leaving a dog alone all night when they are already seeing a difference with their family being gone. If they are dog friendly they would have socialization as well with my friends and family dogs so they could get some interaction and extra exercise! I currently work from home so frequent potty breaks or administration of medication would not be an issue. We would be one big happy family all day long My dogs are not crated when I leave the house but do have an extra large one if required for your baby. If you need me to do a drop in visit, my hours for availability are in the air for the next couple of weeks until I am given my new works hours.
About: I've had different dogs in the house for my whole life. As a kid my family brought dogs in for foster care. We've taken care of multiple dogs with disabilities, including deaf dogs and partially blind dogs. Dogs get along with me well and I'm good at getting shy dogs to warm up to me. I've also volunteered with the Jackson County Animal Shelter, working with the cats at PetSmart. I've also taken care of relatives'/friends'/neighbors' pets. Currently I spend most of my time at home working on my online classes so I will have plenty of time to spend caring for your dog. On the rare chance that I'm not home at least one of my parents are in the house and will be able to fill in for me while I'm out. The dogs that I own eat at the same time everyday and go out as needed, but if your dogs need to be treated differently it will be easy to change things for them. Just fill me in on what your pet needs to be taken care of properly and I should be able to get it done.
“Rodney was very friendly and approached Scout with patience (he’s a rescue with some past trauma). He clearly is knowledgeable about dogs and cares about them. I would definitely contact Rodney to watch Scout if I’m ever in the area again!”
About: I have owned and raised many dogs and cats in my life and also have the experience of pet sitting other peoples pets since I was in high school. As of right now my schedule is pretty much wide open so I have as much free time through out the week to be available. I live in a one story home, in town, on my own with no other animals. I have a fenced in back yard that is secluded from the street.
About: I am the person my friends turn to when they have a behavior problem with their dogs, although I am a pet sitter, not a trainer. I have an affinity with dogs. I love to read their expressions and body language to understand their moods. I am retired and stay at home almost always. I have lots and lots of time for the dogs that are entrusted to my care. I have about 2 acres, fenced. I have 3 couches in the living room where me and dogs can get comfortable. I let dogs in, I let dogs out. We spend good weather outside. I am retired and home almost always. I have lots of time for your furkids. We spend nice days outside, and in bad weather we all cuddle in the livingroom.

I also am willing to work with pet parents on certain availabilities if needed.

About: Hi there, I’m Brittany. Animals make me happy. When I see a pet, I see a child. They are a member of the family. They have the sweetest souls and biggest hearts and I wouldn’t treat them any other way. I have one dog and I was raised with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. Every day I take my dog on at least one walk and many times I walk him multiple times per day. I treat my fur babies like family and how I would want to be treated. I am not only here to help you during your busy schedule but to become a friend to you and your fur baby. To house sit during longer durations, I can travel to anywhere. I would need to bring my golden retriever with me if your pets like to socialize and make new friends, he loves other dogs and gets along with them great, he is very social and has been to many dog parks and households with pets, if not I may be able to find someone to take care of him for me during that time. For drop in visits, I can assist on my own or bring my dog for some company. I am also available on certain days for doggy day care and boarding. When I have a dog stay with me I treat that dog like my own and it would have an amazing friend to play with. Pets are allowed on furniture, I have treats, toys, tons of dog beds, and a fenced in yard. I will also take your dog out on walks and play fetch or tug to burn energy. If you choose to book me, thank you for trusting me and I won’t disappoint you! My schedule is very flexible, and I would love to help accommodate what you need help with, whether that is daily or weekly. I am always picking up new work bookings. I have booked a lot off of rover so I have additional referrals if you would like them! I will treat your animals and home as if it were my own, with love, trust, and respect. I have helped out for many years taking care of people's pets and homes. I have many references.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. My dogs have been and always will be members of the family. We currently do not have a dog as our 14 year old lab passed away from a stroke last year. We do allow dogs on furniture and we do take excursions to the park in good weather. This can be your dogs home away from home. I am retired and am home unless I am traveling. We have a fenced in property with woods and a creek that your dog can enjoy on walks unless you prefer they just stay in the main yard. When your dog is here so am I to ensure your dog is well cared for. I have a single family home with a fenced yard. Pets are allowed on furniture and bed. I enjoy excursions to the park with my dog for walks and relaxing. Children are grown and gone so it's just a couple who enjoy dogs. We have a senior Labrador who is very friendly, has all vaccinations and has free roam of the house. I am also available to sit for your dog in your home if you prefer. I follow any instructions for your dog you want me to, including administering medications.
About: I have been caring for animals since I was ten years old. Walking, feeding, paying, and bathing dogs of all breeds. You can count on me to make sure your dogs and cats are well taken care of. I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur family! We will play, get in plenty of walks, and enjoy our time together. I am fully confident in my ability to keep your pets safe, happy, and engaged. I am very respectful of boundaries and will do my absolute best to make sure your pet has a great and comfortable time.

About: I’ve owned multiple dogs my whole life, from our current German Shepherd and Siberian Husky to the two pugs we adopted when I was in high school to the lovey dog we found as a kid that we named Scooby-Doo because he looked just like him. I’ve helped care for all of them from walks around the block to feeding time to going outside just for potty and play time. I’ve also helped out a few friends with their dogs since high school while they were away. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a decently open schedule after my kids go to school in the morning and once my husband gets home from work during the week and am available during all hours of the weekend. If you are comfortable with your pets coming to my house I have two very friendly dogs who love play dates if your fur babies play well with others and a big back yard and a fenced in side yard for plenty of running around room or games of fetch. If I’m watching your dog(s) at your home I will follow whatever schedule you have for them on top of making time for play, walks and love so that they don’t feel neglected in any way while you are away. I also am more than comfortable with giving them baths if need be.
About: Hi, my name is Sandy and I would love to care for your pet. I have owned dogs for 25+ years as well as cared for my friends when they are away. I had my last beloved Westie Terrier for 16 years and since have really missed having a dog to look after and bring joy to my home. I'm semi-retired so I am able to provide frequent walks and potty breaks. I live in a 4 bedroom house on Lake Columbia that will provide cozy amenities and lots of fun for your dog. My goal is to make sure your pet feels like they are on a vacation of their own while you are away so you don't have to worry. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you. Thanks, Sandy I am semi-retired so I have plenty of time to keep you pet on a schedule and pamper them! They will be comfortable and enjoy my home! I don't have a fence yard and will always keep them on a leash I have a lot of experience training pets and will work with them!
About: I will love and care for your furry friends as I do my own. I've owned dogs my whole life and my family would say it's a passion I've never fulfilled (but will be thanks to rover!) I've owned all size breeds so teacup or a small horse, I've got you covered! I am a Navy Veteran and current full-time student at the University of Michigan and my husband works from home 100% of the time. Your pups will never be left unsupervised. We have two other dogs in the home who love having guests and making new friends. Feedings can take place whenever you deem necessary for you! We have a ton of treats (SCHNACKS) ready to spoil and pamper your puppers as we do our own. I live on 7 acres of land in a private community, and have approximately 1 acre of fenced in yard directly off the back of the house. Your friends will be able to take plenty of potty breaks and nice tranquil walks in the "countryside". They will be kenneled at night (around 11p.m.) in a dark, empty room in a padded kennel. (I know it sounds depressing but is actually super relaxing for doggos!). Doggie bath services are also negotiable.
“Julia was so good and did a wonderful job with Gigi. Gigi was so happy and calm when we went Home. I will definitely book her again! Gigi is an older dog and Julia provided the care that made a difference.”
About: I've worked as a vet assistant, at a pet store, volunteered at a animal shelter and have been dog training, grooming, walking and pet/dog sitting for years. This is what I do for work so I am able to be with your sweeties as much as possible! Feel free to reach out to me! I always monitor and take as best care of them possible. Excercise when they need, rest when they need, potty, food etc. if your pets have a schedule I'll stick to it. If not well then tell me what you'd like and call it done!
“Danielle and her Alaska Huskies were wonderful! She was fun and helpful and obviously loved my fur babies and set limits so they knew what was acceptable behavior on her turf! She was accommodating as well. One evening my class went overtime. She had no problem keeping my boys until I could be there. She communicated by text to let me know how they were doing each day. She allowed us to visit before our appointed time so my dogs could be introduced to her dogs. Danielle was wonderful! I highly recommend her!!”
About: I have a love for animals big and small. I enjoy exploring and making new experiences with animals. I have experience with elderly and medical needs animals. I work as a nanny and have sometimes weeks off and would love to have an animal to take care of and take places with me. I have a house with 13 acres, for dogs that are not recall trained I use a 10 ft leash and always make sure leases are on before the door opens. I have a separate room for my own animals that way if rabbits or cats are meet with aggression all animals will be safe.
About: Ive been taking care of dogs my whole life. We actually had Beagle puppies born in our bathroom 13 years ago. I've raised 5 dogs all together. We have 1 left. He's our baby.

“Thank you so much for everything you have done with Brody! I think he will have to live with the cough now but thank you for keeping an eye on it. Brody will look forward to the next time he sees you again.”
About: I’ve been around all sizes of dogs since I was born and I only want to give them the very best lives possible. I’ve been training my golden doodle/great pyrenees mix (Oakley) as a therapy dog since I’ve had him but he was recently severely injured, paralyzing the back half of his body, so I did passive range of motion, took him on walks with a harness on the back of his body, stimulated his paw nerves, stretched him out, manually expressed him, and tried my best to give him all the love I could until he eventually was able to walk again. About a month of this and he can now walk and function normally (with a wobble and some additional clumsiness) but I’m thankful for his health every single day and this has helped me become more in tune with what he needs and how best to support and care for dogs. I work at a local coffee shop so my hours are very flexible and I work fairly short hours so there’s always a point in the day when I’m free. I always try to get a certain amount of steps, so walking and taking care of dogs is perfect for me. We have a large yard perfect for running and I take my dogs out on leashes for walks and we have a pond in our backyard to walk around.
“Anne was good with Apache. She accommodated my request despite it being last minute. She was on time and communicated well with me and sent me photos of Apache when she was over. I would definitely recommend Anne to anyone and would absolutely book with her again! Thank you so much Anne :)”
About: What sets me aside from the average sitter is I don't just think of your animals as just your pet but as your own human kid. I treat it as it's equal and deserves my eyes and not my phones camera lens. Your pet, and everyone's pet human child deserves a fresh mind. I can help them even achieve any goals/tricks. I'll come with a handful of treats ready to start our day. Pet Care fits in my routine by a breeze. I'm a stay at home mom of 2. I wake up early prepare breakfast, pack lunches, get them ready and off to school they go. I get home do a little morning clean up as I do that I can easily exercise and play with your pet. After the morning clean up (which can always wait till later) I'm ready for your pet and Mine's adventure. At my home I have a fenced in yard, that's a decent size for small or large pets. I am close to dog friendly walking parks/trails. My neighborhood has a sidewalk that wraps around the block so its a nice for morning stroll.
“I highly recommend Veronica as a dog walker and caretaker. Reliability and responsibility are among Veronica‘s greatest strengths. She communicates effectively with pet owners by providing regular updates and photos.”
“Brooklyn was flexible and easy to work with. I will certainly look for her again next time. We met prior to her scheduled walking of my Pomsky, Razia to give her access to my apartment and discuss details. She is very nice and professional. Thanks, again!”
About: I’m knowledgeable in breed-specific needs and maintain consistency to keep them mentally and physically happy! I have previously taken dog behavior courses and am familiar with dog body language. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and ages! No dog is “too much!” I am comfortable with administering medications and providing grooming for long haired/high maintenance breeds. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.

About: Pet enthusiast looking to share my love and compassion for animals in exchange for fair rates. I have ample room so prolonged pet watching be it overnight or long-term is available.

I currently have dogs, cats, a tortoise, and a few different wildlife species. In terms of professional experience, I have been working as a veterinary assistant for the past ten years, and am currently a veterinary surgical assistant in Jackson. In my “spare” time, I foster animals for JCAS and do some wildlife rehabilitation work! I am comfortable caring for all species of animals, with any special need! Pet care is literally my entire life. I work ten hour days as a veterinary assistant, and then come home and take care of the animals at my home. It’s my passion and gives me purpose. I care for other peoples pets as if they are my own babies. I follow instructions well, so will be sure to perform appropriate tasks and feedings exactly as the pet parents prefer.
About: I love animals! Dogs are my favorite, especially big dogs! Their love is unconditional so I try to match their excitement to meet a new person they wanna love! I have had animals all my life, from dog/cat to exotic to farm animals. I love them all and am willing to help with whatever you'll need! Cats, rats, dragons or fish/axolotl's. Ive even fed roaches to a lizard petsitting a neighbors house! That was icky but i did it🤣 I am a stay at home mama, my kids are in school and so when my farm chores are done, Id love to take care of your babies to earn extra mula :) Who wouldnt want to get paid to play with animals?🤣 One of my dogs is super protective so Id have to go to their home, but I could play, throw the ball, go for a hike etc. Whatever the owner tells me the dog likes, we can do! :) I dont mind. Ive had a great dane that fetched three times just wanted to cuddle and Ive had german shepherds who fetched a million times and didnt want cuddles! So whatever the owner tells me, ill respect of them and their furbaby🫶🏼
About: Over the years of my life I have kept and raised every type of animal you can think of. Animals are a huge passion of mine and I love and adore all types and sizes from a tiny Chihuahua to a great dane. My family also owns and runs a travelling zoo which I help out with here and there so I also have experience from working that also. I love all breeds and I'm not afraid of any of them. I currently myself have 3 dogs and 19 lizards and 2 birds plus fish. I've always wanted to work with animals and I feel this would be a better opportunity than working at the animal shelter because I get more hands on this way. I'm currently not working so that gives me plenty of time to be available to work with your pets and give them what they need. I can not have extra animals in my home but I can definitely care for any animal of any size inside thier own home where they can be comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for years doing all responsibilities necessary. I also have a German Shepherd and a cat of my own! I enjoy helping others and being around animals. I love meeting new animals and seeing how different every personality is. I currently am not working, so I have plenty of time to care for furry friends! My pets do not super high maintenance, so it is easy for me to fit in others. Besides taking my dog to the park on the daily :) My dog is crated during the day. I live in a house but it’s partially fenced, so I do let him out on leash currently. I’d always have a dog on leash when out of an un-fenced area.

“We couldn’t have asked for a more loving and caring dog sitter for our two dogs. Sonya and her family actively gave 100% excellent care. It started out as a weekend, and by necessity, ended up being more than a week long job. The entire time that our dogs were there, we received regular communications and photos of the dogs enjoying time outside, and indoors with the family. If you’re looking for someone who give your dog everything that they need, Sonya is the answer. Should we ever need a dog sitter again, we know where we’re going. Huge thank you to you Donya and your family!”

“Katie took good care of my dog, Tilly, for the weekend. She sent daily photos and updates and opened her home for Tilly’s stay. Tilly seemed comfortable and enjoyed playing with toys. I’d recommend Katie and her family for dog sitting.”
“Great thanks to the wonderful job Christina and Jennifer did taking in our Moose during the Thanksgiving holiday period. They showed him excellent care, provided frequent pictures, allowed him to socialize (as best he could) with other dogs, and their rural farm property provided unending new interesting things for him to sniff both in their large back yard and on their "pack walks". Would definitely consider boarding Moose with them again!”
“Our two senior dogs were well cared for and got along great in the pack. We were very happy with how very well they were cared for. Terrific large fenced in yard. Thank you Brooke!”
“Marianna took excellent care of Ebony and Calypso, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She provided regular updates along with amazing photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from everything she shared that they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciated her attention to detail and the level of care she showed my dogs. I would absolutely book with her again.”
