This was our first time leaving our dog with someone on rover. We previously left our dog at a boarding place and she didn’t do well at all, was sick didn’t eat etc. We decided leaving her with someone who would be with her most of the time would be best for us. We met with Ralph prior to her stay. He answered all of our questions and he asked good questions as well, so that he got to know her before taking care of her. Ralph watched our dog for 7 days and she did so well! He sent photos and updates and was quick to respond if we reached out for additional updates/questions. Ralph made sure he was home as much as possible for an entire week even saying he went grocery shopping prior to ensure he had groceries and wouldn’t have to leave her alone. We are so happy to have met someone who we can trust and know will take good care of our dog as if it’s his own. We definitely plan to use him again for our next vacation.

Logan is a fantastic dog sitter! He went above and beyond with communication about my Cheyenne. He was incredibly conscientious about making sure she ate, exercised, and was generally happy. I am very grateful Logan was available on short notice, and I’m glad he and Chey hit it off, as I will surely reach out to him again.

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had pets. Cats, dogs and even a cow and chicken or two. I strongly believe our pets are family members just like our human family. I've had big and little dogs, and many different cats. My current little man is my best buddy he is spoiled and loved so much. He's 7 years old and loves other dogs to hang out with. He doesn't pay any attention to cats. I would love to care for your family member, giving you peace of mind that they will be well cared for and loved on while in my care. My availability is completely open, any day and time. I'm very flexible with dates and times, whether at your home or mine. Thank you for your time and I look forwars to hearing from you! I have a fenced in area for bathroom breaks and a large yard on a quiet country road to run and play in. I have space for a crate, I even have a very large one that can be used if necessary. Also have an almost two mile lane around our farm property to walk and run around. My home has plenty of space for exploring or just chilling out.

Bennet and her husband room phenomenal care of our dog- a mini golden doodle. They treated her like a member of their family. They gave her endless belly rubs, tools her for multiple walks, took her for a dogs day out, and sent so many pictures to allow us to see what she was up to. While our dog was happy to see us, she seemed to miss Bennet once we got home! I would whole heartedly recommend Bennet if you are looking for someone to watch and care for your dog the way you would at your own home!

About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! I currently have Midland's rail trail right in my back yard for nice walks if that's something you would like done. When we move in March we will have a large open park right in our backyard! We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and also two cats that sleep the day away. My three kids (ages 8 - 13) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!

Alisha was amazing to work with! She took great care of my dog, Ruger, and kept me updated the whole time. I received lots of cute pictures of Ruger and her dog, Bella, playing together. She has a big fenced in backyard which gave Ruger lots of opportunities to get in his exercise and to play with Bella. I highly recommend Alisha to look after your fur baby and I will definitely be taking Ruger to her again if I need a sitter.

About: I have always loved dogs! I have owned one almost my entire life. I have stayed overnight with friends dogs many times while they're out of town. I am active, so walking and playing will be no problem. My summer is very open, so I hope to be filling my time with your dogs and puppies! I have a few references, that I have house/pet sat for, if you would like to contact them. I love big dogs, medium dogs, small dogs, skinny dogs, fat dogs, all dogs! I had an Airedale Terrier who had ACL repairement surgery twice. This gave me experience with giving medications, rehabilitation & disabled dogs. Kellogg that you see was my foster dog, he’s living his best life with his new dad. If your dog loves to play, my parent’s dog, Arlo, is always down for some laps around the yard…If you're missing your dog, we will have a photo shoot and send you as many pictures as needed! Aside from loving dogs (which you unfortunately can't get a degree in) I have a bachelors degree from CMU & a masters degree from Wayne State University. I am a teacher, so love and patience are my middle names. My almost 8 year old son is also a dog lover and will be helping me give the best care possible. I hope you allow me to have fun with your pup! Message me to check availability! I am on summer break, meaning I have lots of extra time for my own pup as well as helping out with someone else’s pup! Always make sure to follow the plan left for me by the owner. Take extra precautions to make sure the pup is secure inside and outside of the home.

Madeline was absolutely wonderful while house sitting and caring for my cat, Sawyer. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy—checking in often with updates, photos, and thoughtful details. I really appreciated how flexible she was with her own schedule to accommodate Sawyer’s routine and make sure he was never left wanting for attention. It gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.

About: I've worked with animals off all kinds, ages, sizes, and requirements since I was 10. Everyone i know comes to me for pet help/care. I take a special intrest in training. I currently have a border collie mix who i practice sports such as agility and bikjoring. She also love trick training and obedience training. I was in a vet course in high school for two years so I've got plenty of experience with all sizes and species of animals. There i learn how to give oral medication, signs of parasites/disease, dog body language and the importance of mental & physical stimulation that sent me on my way to being a dog nerd. My job has me working weekends during the slow season and being an active person I need something to fill my off time. So I have Monday- Thursday to work with your schedule. I have worked with reactive animals as well as own one so im exceptional at dog body language and i focus on making a dogs walk/Visit as stress-free as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of a senior cat who had special littler box, medicine, and feeding needs. My family has also relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their small dogs for over 5 years! I love being an auntie to a red toy poodle! I currently work full time from home, allowing care at most times throughout the day! I also am commonly at home during week nights, and enjoy many at home hobbies including playing the piano, reading, knitting, and crocheting, which all make me a homebody! I have a large back yard and live in a neighborhood that is very friendly for dog walking! My home is all vinyl flooring and one level.

Kim was great with my dog! My dog isn’t the easiest dog in the world: sweet dog, but a shelter dog with a lot of anxiety, but she accommodated her perfectly!

Kathy is amazing. Isabel can be timid when she goes to a new place, but she walked into Kathy's like she lived there. Made it much easier to leave my fur baby for daycare.

About: My Husband and I have had pets in our family since we both could walk. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats ourselves that are treated better than many humans. We understand the struggle of finding the right fit for your babies when you need to travel and are happy to provide as many updates and pictures as needed to make sure you are comfortable with their care. For Puppies, we both have gone through the puppy phase a few times and understand their needs and chaotic tendencies. All of our animals are up to date on their shots. As a bonus, we both work from home, so your pets will get constant love and attention. We will also be happy to help with any other special care needs such as medications, special diets, brushing, teeth brushing, etc. Our animals are very used to new friends and play nice and we have a big backyard for your baby's enjoyment. If your pet stays with us, they will be loved like family! We both work from home, so, we are able to give potty breaks and enrichment breaks frequently throughout the day. Someone will always be home when we are boarding. We live in a house and have a large fenced in yard. All of our animals have their current vaccinations. We have a large Kennel for our Shepard for when we have to leave the house.

Nichole watched my dog Marlee for me for 3 days. I will definitely be going back to her. I work a lot and I did not want my dog stuck inside my apartment all day. Nichole did a wonderful job. I was extremely nervous at first just because of how Marlee would do with the other dogs bc she has not been around dogs a lot but she did really good! Nichole texted me with updates and sent me pictures. She is very nice and kind. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much!

Blythe was very accommodating. She took us as a fairly last minute booking since we had a funeral and my previous sitter had just moved away. My pickup estimate was off and she was kind enough to keep Grokii an hour or two longer than expected even though it coincided with putting her kids to bed. Her kids are absolutely adorable and I know Grokii was doted on because he slept almost the entire next day. Great family - highly recommend!

About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! I currently have Midland's rail trail right in my back yard for nice walks if that's something you would like done. When we move in March we will have a large open park right in our backyard! We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and also two cats that sleep the day away. My three kids (ages 8 - 13) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!

With over a decade of experience working with a wide variety of animals, I bring knowledge, dedication, and a deep passion for providing exceptional care. About Me As of February 2025, I am 25 years old and currently pursuing a degree in agriculture operation and technology, as well as political science, and psychology. I have been blessed with a lifelong passion for animal behavior, health, and enrichment. My expertise spans a broad range of animals, from traditional pets like dogs and cats to more exotic companions such as reptiles, foxes, and birds. What Sets Me Apart? ✅ Extensive Experience – From pet sitting to specialized animal care, and dog training, I have worked with countless species, each requiring unique handling and attention. ✅ Advanced Pet Care Skills – From neonatal care and medical administration to behavioral training and enrichment activities. ✅ Emergency Preparedness – Certified in pet CPR and first aid for all species, ensuring your pet’s safety in any situation. ✅ Breed-Specific Knowledge – I tailor care routines based on breed, age, and health needs, optimizing their well-being.

Animal Experience While I have worked with hundreds of animals, here’s a quick overview: ✔ Dogs & Cats – All breeds, sizes, and temperaments. ✔ Exotic Pets – Reptiles, amphibians, rodents, birds, and more. ✔ Farm Animals – Goats, cows, ducks, chickens, quail, and more. Pet Safety is My #1 Priority Your pet’s well-being is my highest concern. My home is securely monitored with cameras, and pets are never left unattended outside of crate time or a designated pet-safe area. When transported, all pets are harnessed or secured in a carrier.

I understand the stress of leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I am here to provide peace of mind while ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaly friend receives the love, attention, and professional care they deserve. I have a highly flexible schedule and can accommodate last-minute changes as needed. Since my college coursework is asynchronous, I can adapt my work to fit around your schedule seamlessly. As a business owner who manages my own time, I prioritize reliability and responsiveness, ensuring that your pet’s needs are always met with the highest level of care and attention. Commitment to Quality Care in Your Home When caring for your pet in your home, I strive to go above and beyond to ensure both your pet's well-being and your peace of mind. If I notice anything out of place or in need of tidying, I’m happy to help—but always with your prior approval. I understand that personal preferences vary; some clients prefer to handle certain tasks themselves, while others appreciate the extra assistance. My goal is to respect your space and treat your home with the same level of care I would my own. Having spent the last two years renovating my own home, I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized environment. Safety and Pet Care Best Practices Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I take every precaution to ensure their well-being: Secure Transportation: If I transport your pet, they will always be properly restrained with a seatbelt or pet travel carrier for safety. Leash & Walk Safety: On walks, I ensure pets do not pick up items from the ground. I also clean their paws after every outing, just as I do with my own pets. Hygiene & Health: If your pet gets dirty, I will provide a bath with your permission. Any medical concerns will be addressed immediately, and I am trained in emergency pet first aid, excluding surgical procedures. Home Security: I will ensure all doors and windows are securely locked when leaving your home. Privacy & Updates: I will only take photos of your pet for your updates and will never photograph your home without permission. Supervision & Outdoor Time: Pets in my care will never be left alone in a vehicle or outside unattended, even in my fenced yard. Cats will remain indoors unless they are harness-trained and you request outdoor time. Stranger Interaction: While on walks, your pet will not interact with strangers or other animals unless pre-approved for socialization. Pet Care in My Home Pets in my home receive dedicated supervision unless prior arrangements are made: Dogs: If a dog is staying with me and needs to be left alone for an extended period, I require a crate for their safety and comfort. However, my schedule is highly flexible, minimizing the time they are left alone. Cats: Cats may be left unsupervised in a designated, pet-safe room with regular check-ins. Handling Aggressive or Special Needs Pets I have extensive experience with fearful, reactive, and aggressive pets, but clear and honest communication is essential: Cats: I am comfortable handling feral or aggressive cats and will take the necessary time to build trust. I can administer medication as needed, but I require full transparency about their behavior to ensure safety for all. Dogs: I can accommodate dogs with minor behavioral challenges, such as leash reactivity or mild anxiety. However, for safety reasons, I cannot accept: Dogs over 50 lbs who are not at least moderately leash-trained. Dogs requiring a muzzle or choke collar in public settings. Dogs with severe aggression or unpredictable behavior. Double-Booking Policy For the safety and well-being of all pets, I do not double-book boarding, daycare, or walks unless all parties have given consent and a meet-and-greet has taken place. If multiple dogs are staying in my home at the same time, a meet-and-greet is required. Even if the dogs get along, they will not be left alone together unless securely crated. Cats and dogs boarding in my home simultaneously will be kept in separate areas with no contact.

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had pets. Cats, dogs and even a cow and chicken or two. I strongly believe our pets are family members just like our human family. I've had big and little dogs, and many different cats. My current little man is my best buddy he is spoiled and loved so much. He's 7 years old and loves other dogs to hang out with. He doesn't pay any attention to cats. I would love to care for your family member, giving you peace of mind that they will be well cared for and loved on while in my care. My availability is completely open, any day and time. I'm very flexible with dates and times, whether at your home or mine. Thank you for your time and I look forwars to hearing from you! I have a fenced in area for bathroom breaks and a large yard on a quiet country road to run and play in. I have space for a crate, I even have a very large one that can be used if necessary. Also have an almost two mile lane around our farm property to walk and run around. My home has plenty of space for exploring or just chilling out.

About: Hi there! As much as I enjoy clinical therapy, I also have formal training as a vet tech and several years of experience in the field. I care strongly for cats as much as dogs, and my innate feelings of love, sensitivity, empathy and compassion make me truly happy in their presence! Even though I’ve had cats my whole life, I’m very experienced with dogs as well, in both formal and informal settings. I’m completely comfortable administering medications, giving injections (Ex: Insulin), administering fluids, taking care of sick/elderly/ICU pets, changing bandages, walking, feeding, playing with, and loving your furry friends. 💜 Please note: prices for my services are flexible for recurring services and in situations with multiple pets. My schedule is flexible and I am currently looking for part time work in the area. I will prioritize my time in order to take care of your beloved family member. I am reliable and dependable, and always put 100% of myself into caring for pets. It would be an honor to take care of yours, and you can trust that I will always do a thorough and loving job. No excuses.

About: I have always loved dogs! I have owned one almost my entire life. I have stayed overnight with friends dogs many times while they're out of town. I am active, so walking and playing will be no problem. My summer is very open, so I hope to be filling my time with your dogs and puppies! I have a few references, that I have house/pet sat for, if you would like to contact them. I love big dogs, medium dogs, small dogs, skinny dogs, fat dogs, all dogs! I had an Airedale Terrier who had ACL repairement surgery twice. This gave me experience with giving medications, rehabilitation & disabled dogs. Kellogg that you see was my foster dog, he’s living his best life with his new dad. If your dog loves to play, my parent’s dog, Arlo, is always down for some laps around the yard…If you're missing your dog, we will have a photo shoot and send you as many pictures as needed! Aside from loving dogs (which you unfortunately can't get a degree in) I have a bachelors degree from CMU & a masters degree from Wayne State University. I am a teacher, so love and patience are my middle names. My almost 8 year old son is also a dog lover and will be helping me give the best care possible. I hope you allow me to have fun with your pup! Message me to check availability! I am on summer break, meaning I have lots of extra time for my own pup as well as helping out with someone else’s pup! Always make sure to follow the plan left for me by the owner. Take extra precautions to make sure the pup is secure inside and outside of the home.

About: It has been a life long endeavor to rescue, re home and care for animals. I am proud to be an animal lover and pet parent. Presently I have 3 cats (all rescues), 4 dogs(3 rescues; one foster), a reptile handler(4 bearded dragons;4 leopard geckos) and an accomplished aquarium enthusiast. It is a privilege to share my home with these animal companions. Since I am a pet parent I realize the importance of staying on track with a daily routine for all my pets health and wellbeing. Crate training a dog offers a personal safe space to eat or sleep when boarding. Exceptions can be made to accommodate the pet owners expectation of doting on their precious pet to help ease any separation anxiety.

I'm currently available for late afternoons on Friday's and available on weekends. Message me if you have any questions. My children love meeting new puppies and being able to help take care of them.

About: I worked in a boarding center for dogs and cats while their owners were away. There, I had training in caring for many different breeds and sizes of dog, including giving them medications, scheduling play time and potty breaks, and walks. Friends and family all rely on me to watch their pets while they're away, and that's because I genuinely love and care for every animal I come across! I've owned animals my whole life, and right now have one cat named Roxas who I love with my whole heart. I'm self employed from home, so my schedule and availability are extremely open and flexible! Whenever you need, chances are I'll be available to watch after your fur baby! I live in a quiet, nice apartment complex. I don't have a fenced in yard, but would keep your dog leashed while out for potty breaks if boarding. I also have home security cameras installed. I value you and your pets safety and privacy!

About: I've worked with animals off all kinds, ages, sizes, and requirements since I was 10. Everyone i know comes to me for pet help/care. I take a special intrest in training. I currently have a border collie mix who i practice sports such as agility and bikjoring. She also love trick training and obedience training. I was in a vet course in high school for two years so I've got plenty of experience with all sizes and species of animals. There i learn how to give oral medication, signs of parasites/disease, dog body language and the importance of mental & physical stimulation that sent me on my way to being a dog nerd. My job has me working weekends during the slow season and being an active person I need something to fill my off time. So I have Monday- Thursday to work with your schedule. I have worked with reactive animals as well as own one so im exceptional at dog body language and i focus on making a dogs walk/Visit as stress-free as possible. My experience with reactive dogs helps me stay patient and calm in stressful situations.

About: A dog lover, through and through, I strive to provide a comfortable and joyful experience for you and your fur baby. I currently have two dogs and have been training Bandit (my Schnauzer) since the day I brought him home. I have had dogs for most of my life and have had worked with various ages and sizes. I know every dog has a unique personality and I am passionate about giving them the care and love they deserve. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule during the day Monday-Friday allowing me to be there for you and your pet, I am available on nights and weekends! I have pet sit for my friends a lot in prior years and when I am in your home, I am courteous to you and your dog's space. I make sure to visit the home prior so I can meet and greet the family and the dog and learn their routine and where any supplies are that I may need. I make sure I can fit in some play/exercise time (whether the yard is fenced in, or we have to use a leash). I make sure to keep the environment clean and safe at all times and do regular check-ins. In my own home I provide the same service. I want you to be comfortable with where your dog will be visiting and know the environment they will be in, prior to staying. I make sure my house is always picked up and that there is minimal possibility of safety issues. My yard is fenced in, and I live by a nice park that is dog friendly. At home I enjoy playing/exercising indoors and out and making enrichment bowls. Health is key!

Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or helping with medication and routines, I treat every dog like family. I’m here to give your pet the same love, patience, and care I’ve given mine my whole life! I’m a full-time nursing student with a flexible schedule and no other job, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! Whether it’s daily visits, overnights, or just extra cuddles, I’m happy to fit into their routine. In My Home: I live in a pet-friendly apartment in a quiet neighborhood that’s great for walks. While my backyard isn’t fenced, I have a secure in-ground leash for safe outdoor time, and there’s also an open field nearby where pets can play using a 15ft leash if they enjoy more space. Inside, your pet will feel right at home with my super friendly dog and two curious (but respectful) kitties. I provide a cozy, supervised environment full of love, playtime, and attention based on your pet’s needs and personality. In Client Homes: I stick to your pet’s normal routine to keep things comfortable and consistent. I offer feeding, walks, medication if needed, playtime, and plenty of affection. I always treat your pet—and your home—with the same care and respect I give my own.

This was our first time leaving our dog with someone on rover. We previously left our dog at a boarding place and she didn’t do well at all, was sick didn’t eat etc. We decided leaving her with someone who would be with her most of the time would be best for us. We met with Ralph prior to her stay. He answered all of our questions and he asked good questions as well, so that he got to know her before taking care of her. Ralph watched our dog for 7 days and she did so well! He sent photos and updates and was quick to respond if we reached out for additional updates/questions. Ralph made sure he was home as much as possible for an entire week even saying he went grocery shopping prior to ensure he had groceries and wouldn’t have to leave her alone. We are so happy to have met someone who we can trust and know will take good care of our dog as if it’s his own. We definitely plan to use him again for our next vacation.

Logan is a fantastic dog sitter! He went above and beyond with communication about my Cheyenne. He was incredibly conscientious about making sure she ate, exercised, and was generally happy. I am very grateful Logan was available on short notice, and I’m glad he and Chey hit it off, as I will surely reach out to him again.

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had pets. Cats, dogs and even a cow and chicken or two. I strongly believe our pets are family members just like our human family. I've had big and little dogs, and many different cats. My current little man is my best buddy he is spoiled and loved so much. He's 7 years old and loves other dogs to hang out with. He doesn't pay any attention to cats. I would love to care for your family member, giving you peace of mind that they will be well cared for and loved on while in my care. My availability is completely open, any day and time. I'm very flexible with dates and times, whether at your home or mine. Thank you for your time and I look forwars to hearing from you! I have a fenced in area for bathroom breaks and a large yard on a quiet country road to run and play in. I have space for a crate, I even have a very large one that can be used if necessary. Also have an almost two mile lane around our farm property to walk and run around. My home has plenty of space for exploring or just chilling out.

About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! I currently have Midland's rail trail right in my back yard for nice walks if that's something you would like done. When we move in March we will have a large open park right in our backyard! We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and also two cats that sleep the day away. My three kids (ages 8 - 13) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!

Alisha was amazing to work with! She took great care of my dog, Ruger, and kept me updated the whole time. I received lots of cute pictures of Ruger and her dog, Bella, playing together. She has a big fenced in backyard which gave Ruger lots of opportunities to get in his exercise and to play with Bella. I highly recommend Alisha to look after your fur baby and I will definitely be taking Ruger to her again if I need a sitter.

Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!
