We were gone 2 nights, and she was 100% communicative always willing answer any questions about how they’re doing. She truly is the best of the best!!!! You won’t regret leaving your dog/dogs with her!!!!!”
“Kelli is a great host and took very good care of our dogs overnight. She gave us the opportunity to do a meet & greet and sent us loads of pictures of them running around her spacious (& fenced!) backyard. We're grateful to have her help.”
“Our (very) senior girl had a fantastic stay with Katlynn and her family! She was clearly very well cared for. Katlynn communicated often, sending daily pictures of our dog fitting right into their family life and was super accommodating. We’ll definitely book again, if she’ll have our gal!”
“Jacqueline was very communicative before and during my dog's stay. I had a last minute request, but she was able to accommodate us and sent cute pictures of my dog. My dog has a great time playing and snuggling!”

“Millie always loves her time with Heavan. Her longest stay to date and she was well taken care of. I don't just trust anyone with my dog, she's treated as an only child and Heavan gets the importance of that. Fair priced and always treats your fur baby as her own.”
“Kasey was an excellent choice for watching our puppy, Rocky. She provided regular updates throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. When we returned, Rock was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Kasey for pet sitting!”
“Larry was awesome! He had my lil Maggie for almost two weeks we were just passing through and had car trouble and he extended her stay on the fly for us. When I picked her up she was so happy! If I need a dog boarder again I will definitely call Larry.”
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.
“Shawnia was the best pet sitter ever. Seven really enjoyed herself and she made me feel at ease during my whole trip by sending me pictures and updates. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much.”
“It was so convenient having Victoria and Rishi watch our Pepper over Easter weekend. She seemed to have a blast with all her pack buddies while we were on vacation- even got to go on a couple nature walks! We were nervous never having used Rover, but we will definitely leave her with R. and V. again. Thanks for being Pepper's home away from home!”
“Haley provided EXCEPTIONAL care, from the meet and greet to Milo’s sleepover! I appreciated the attention to detail, communication and the picture you printed of Milo’s stay is now hanging on my fridge! THANK YOU for the special touches you provided. 💗”
“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”
“Olivia was AWESOME! She sent daily updates with pictures! She took great care of our beloved dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone! I will definitely use her again.”
“Alice sent lots of pictures of our Baily, while we gone. We got a lot of pleasure seeing Baily playing with other dogs, getting lots of outdoor time, and even seeing her resting after a active day. Alice is great. I wouldn't take Baily anywhere else”

“Eden was fabulous! From the parents of a high needs diabetic senior kitty we could not more enthusiastically recommend Eden as a pet sitter and care giver. They went above and beyond our expectations with great reports, pictures, and making sure they understood Finn's needs and care. Thanks Eden, you were awesome!”
“Anna was such a great sitter! She is professional, kind, super informative, and great with animals. She was a natural playing with my cat and took some great photos of him to send while I was away. She is really flexible and easy to work with and her care for animals is so clear.”
“Katherine did a great job for us. She has pets of her own and understands how important these little fur-people are. I was able to return home from my travel with less stress.”
“Taya was outstanding! I could see the 'boys' change from the initial stand offish to enjoying her arrival and playtime with the daily videos. Being in England it was comforting to know they were being well cared for. We will be using Taya for all our future trips.”
“Excellent care. Cat warmed up well and got many pictures and videos of playing and petting, as well as assurance the living space was still clean. Would recommend!”
About: I started house sitting for family/friends when I was younger. I’ve worked at a dog boarding facility since the day I turned 16 and absolutely love animals! I know a lot of pets don’t like the kennel environment so I’m here to offer that in home experience for your furry family members! I am not currently working to my availability is pretty open! I’m currently a stay-at-home dog mom, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care.

I believe consistency is important, so I do my best to keep pets on the schedule they’re used to while providing lots of love, enrichment, and regular updates for their owners. When caring for pets in their home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any other special care your pet needs. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment while you’re away. I respect your home as if it were my own, keeping everything clean, secure, and tidy during my visits. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, along with messages so you always know how your pet is doing and can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Michelle provided updates and services as requested. Came home to a non-distressed cat which is all I can hope for with my shy guy. Would book her again.”
“DeEtte did a wonderful job taking care of Finn for us. She met us ahead of time to go over his routine and schedule, and during the visit took great care of our boy! He was very happy and we were too. Highly recommend DeEtte and will be using her regularly!”

“Donna is fantastic with our 1yr old doberman. We are still doing alot of training with him and it's great knowing that Donna has the same knowledge of training and its being applied while hes in her care.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old. I have had big and small dogs, rescues and purebreds. My daughter has her own Dog Grooming business & can offer her services here during their stay. We breed and show Collies, both rough and smooth varieties, and have 1 Mini Schnauzer, along with 5 kids. We homeschool, so I am home the majority of most days unless we have co-op classes to go to. We have lots of experience in training and playing with dogs through active participation in 4H Showmanship , Obedience, Rally, & Agility. My daughter and I are hoping to compete in all of the above in AKC events as well. I am comfortable giving oral medication, including sub-q fluids annd/or diabetes shots, and can be shown how to do any other type of medication, as needed. I am a homeschooling Mom, so I am home the majority of most days. We have co-op classes we do attend, but usually are not gone more than 3-4 hours at a time once or twice a week. If we leave the house, all dogs will be crated for their safety and my peace of mind. I am looking for either long term schedules or flexible to help in times of vacations and various excursions in which your dog can not join you. We have 9 acres, set off from the road quite a ways. I have 2 fenced in dog areas in which my Collies run & play when we are not outside with them. We take multiple breaks through out the day to play with dogs, can do walks, ball play, etc. Our Dogs have gotten along with everyone that has come over so far. Our Mini Schnauzer rules the roost in the house. :)

About: I have grown up around animals, mostly dogs. My family and I have been dog sitting my whole life. My father is allergic to dogs and cats so I dog sat for any family or friends who asked to get my doggie fix. Now,I am a proud dog mom to 3 lovely pups. They each have their own personalities and needs. Freya, our 8 month old Pit/Bulldog mix gives me experience in training as well as socializing dogs. Thor, our 6 year old Shepard/Lab mix has seperation anxiety, he gives me experience in creating a bond and trust. Loki, our other 6 year old Shepard/Lab mix is reactive towards strangers, human and canine. He has given me experience in how to create a safe space for him, build his confidence and trust in others. I am a newlywed that changed job rolls at my current employer. I work 4am to Noon, that leaves my afternoons open to work. I am looking for part-time work with flexible hours.

Ive been required to walk, feed, play with and even give medication to some dogs I’ve worked with who have anxiety and depression. I’m currently working pool so I only have to work 3 days a month and even when working I would only be 15 minutes away so I could easily check in.

“Thank you so much Taya for taking care of Simba. The most important thing is you accepted the request with a very short notice. We are so glad we found you and will definitely be continuing to book you for future reference. Thanks again and bless you.”
“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 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.”
“Having traveled from Florida, I needed a sitter quickly and for several days due to family emergency. Rex took Luna Mae immediately. He was extremely helpful, especially with fluctuating hours. His laid back nature helped me as well. I couldn't believe how excited she got when realizing where we were headed. He did a wonderful job and is really, really appreciated. Thank you Rex. We'll see you in the spring.”
“Larry A made my fur kids feel at home on a holiday and they enjoyed spending time in his fence back yard. Recommend Larry A to others that need their fur kids watch. Will be back for another visit for my fur kids in future. Thank you Larry A!”
“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 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. Right now I have a ten year old cat who is in remission from 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 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.

We are friendly, dependable, affordable and love what we do! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog owner for many years. I have also been a dog sitter for many of my family members for many years. As a life long dog lover, I was never able to have a pup when I was a child. I always told my mother that I was going to have 20 dogs when I grew up. Now, I didn't go that far, but we do have quite a few lovely dog babies that we love with all our hearts! My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering oral medications or injections.
“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!!”
“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!”
“Brianna has watched my puppy a few times and naturally, as puppies can be, she was pretty hyper and crazy, but Brianna did such a great job with her and my puppy was so happy when I went to pick her up! She’s very kind and I’ll definitely be using her again?”
“Special folks who give love and attention to your dog. My dog was super excited when she smelled that she was with Wendy and Jim. She rushed to the door and actually didn’t want to leave and come home when her day was done!”
“Alice did an amazing job with Oreo! She was so kind, patient and gentle with her. She clearly communicated with me about how her day went and asked questions about her needs. Her utmost priority is safety of the dogs in her care, which also made me feel very comfortable! Thank you so much, Alice :)”
About: I had taken care of dogs of every kind since I was very young. I have relied on me to walked, feed and bathe their pets. I had also trained 2 dogs with some of the sign language as well to teach the animals to sit and stay with the American sign language. My friends and family have relied on me to take their dogs to the dog park, the beach and go on the morning hike. Just really take care of their animals with the love, respect and support for those need my help for them to enjoy their time or a getaway! I'm currently working from home on my own flexible schedule! I do have a lot of time in between working virtually and I can do my job anywhere! So if I take the dogs to the park or go on a walk, I could work on my phone to reply my emails, messages etc. I do have the good balance of taking a break from work to spend the time with the animals to give them my attention and cuddles and go on a walks or adventures! First thing first is to care the animals with respect, love and comfort to be in your home. If I was at your house, I am that person that will follow your wishes and expectations of how you would want me to care for your animals. I do clean up after myself when I am at your house and to keep it tidy clean as you like it to be. I also like to step outside with the dogs/cats to keep my eyes on them or even just being outside with them and play with their toys to give them my joyful attention. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well. I will always ask the owner before assuming or trying things out. I love to meet the animals before starting the whole process to feel it out how the energy goes for us and for your animals too. If it flows great with you, I and your animals then there will be lots of pictures will be shared to you as well!
“Kasey is absolutely incredible. As a first-time pet parent, I’m naturally a little anxious, but she made the entire experience seamless and reassuring from start to finish. Rosie had such wonderful, positive exposure to her two sweet dogs and even her kitty — which was so important to me. I could tell Rosie was not only safe, but genuinely thriving in a well-balanced, loving environment. The socialization alone is priceless. Kasey’s communication is top-tier. She sent consistent updates and videos that gave me total peace of mind. Seeing Rosie playing, exploring, and happily interacting made all the difference. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which I truly appreciated. I feel so lucky to have found her and will absolutely be requesting her for all future needs. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾”

Ive been required to walk, feed, play with and even give medication to some dogs I’ve worked with who have anxiety and depression. I’m currently working pool so I only have to work 3 days a month and even when working I would only be 15 minutes away so I could easily check in. I have a large fenced in yard and 4 loving dogs to keep your furbaby company while here :) and two large crates that can easily be set up if needed. We also have about 10 different trails that span across our 7 acres of land that we enjoy taking our dogs for walks on.
About: My name is Taylor and I am a 26 year old dog mom who has 3 beautiful fur babies and 8 chickens. I love animals more than most humans and prefer to spend 100% if my time with animals than anyone else. I’ve had just about every pet under the sun and can take care of all types. Dogs, cats, small animals, reptiles, farm animals, amphibians, fish and all other types of exotic animals. I have been in the pet sitting industry since I was 14 years old and have had my own pets since I was 2 years old. I have such a passion to taking care of other animals and love doing it on the side. I’m currently working appointment based part time Tuesday Wednesdays and Friday’s and would love to fill in some gaps in my day and dedicate it to pets. I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life, I can take care of any type of animal and have a lot of knowledge on specific types of animals and their needs.

“Our (very) senior girl had a fantastic stay with Katlynn and her family! She was clearly very well cared for. Katlynn communicated often, sending daily pictures of our dog fitting right into their family life and was super accommodating. We’ll definitely book again, if she’ll have our gal!”

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.
“Haley provided EXCEPTIONAL care, from the meet and greet to Milo’s sleepover! I appreciated the attention to detail, communication and the picture you printed of Milo’s stay is now hanging on my fridge! THANK YOU for the special touches you provided. 💗”
“Olivia was AWESOME! She sent daily updates with pictures! She took great care of our beloved dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone! I will definitely use her again.”
“Alice sent lots of pictures of our Baily, while we gone. We got a lot of pleasure seeing Baily playing with other dogs, getting lots of outdoor time, and even seeing her resting after a active day. Alice is great. I wouldn't take Baily anywhere else”
“Wonderful sitter to my 2 small breed pups, one of which requires a daily medication and eye on her behavior/habits due to some health issues!! Amanda is so good about communicating with you, sending you pictures and videos and asking you questions about anything she’s unsure about. Working with Amanda you get the bonus of her family loving and caring for your pets, too! I’ve used Amanda twice for multiple day stays and have been very happy both times. Thanks so much!!”
“Danielle was amazing with my senior[16] blind husky. All of her huskies are well trained and played very well with my dog. Danielle is very knowledgeable and I trust her to watch my senior husky with no worry. My dog tends to shut down around other people and completely ignore other dogs. When I picked her up she was very happy and playful with the other huskies after a couple days with them”
“Brianna was great. We didn’t have to worry about a thing and knew from meeting with her our pup Racha would be in good hands. Looking forward to using Brianna regularly moving forward!”
“Jordan’s communication was top notch!!! Jordan was very attentive to my concerns and was flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Most importantly, I felt like Willard was in good hands for the short time we were away. Jordan sent texts and pictures of Willard and kept us updated throughout the stay. Jordan is great!! Highly recommended sitter!”
“Suraya is great fantastic. Our dog loves going to her house. We even get daily pictures of their adventures together. Highly recommend Suraya if you’re looking for someone to love on your pup the way you would.”
“Love having Brooke and her hubby watch my babies. Tux and Ollie are always excited to go over. Brooke is great about sending pictures and keeping me updated while she is caring for our pups. She is quick to respond and very flexible.”
