“Tracey did a wonderful job taking care of Stretch! It was his first time with a dog sitter for that long and she was the perfect person for him. I appreciated her daily pictures and how attentive she was to his needs. Will definitely rebook with her!”
“If you want to treat your dog for the spa / vacation while you are gone , do not look any other place ! They are so amazing and lovely . Zoe is also a sweetheart 😍My dog fell in love with both of them instantly! I can not explain how wonderful and lovely they both are . Will definitely bring my dog back”

“Karen was a wonderful boarder for our 3 year old, high energy “puppy”! We got daily pictures and updates. Her home is clean and dog friendly! Henry had a wonderful time! She even got him to eat during the week which usually doesn’t happen in our absence. We appreciate her care so we could visit family! THANK YOU!”
“Laura was the best sitter ever! She sent pictures along with daily updates every day. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Leaving my dog with Laura was the most comfortable I have ever felt with anyone ever. Thank you Laura!”
“Ziggy loves boarding with Mandy 😊 She sends daily pics and updates, which is so relieving and it’s nice to see him enjoying his stay while I’m away. She is flexible, responsive, and takes great care of Ziggy. Thanks Mandy!”
“Kelly and Brandon are fantastic sitters - I couldn’t ask for them to do anything differently. My pup was safe, well cared for, and tired out by all the fun she was having.”
“I can’t say enough positive about our first experience with rover which was with Kelsey and Kyle. They took tremendous care of our little yorkie girl who usually is clingy about us but when we picked her up and Kyle left the room she whined and in the two years we’ve had her, we had never heard her whine. They also sent us pics of our girl enjoying her day!! They’re great!!”
“Joni has been our preferred pet sitter for over 5 years! She is thoughtful, kind, and loving to our 12 year old Maltese. She does everything in her power to make sure the pets that she cares for feel at home. She regularly sends us updates, photos and videos so we never have to worry while traveling. She is the best!”
“Deanna and her husband did an excellent job taking care of our dog Bernie during his week long stay with them. He is an older dog with mobility and other health challenges. They went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for and felt secure. I highly recommend them!!”
“Leah was wonderful! She took excellent care of our two dogs! She sent updates with pictures & videos which made us very comfortable. Highly recommend! We will definitely use Leah again!”
“We had such a positive experience with Victoria! She went above and beyond with communication throughout Charlie’s stay and when Charlie wasn’t seeming to be feeling good, she reached out to let us know and even took her to the vet for us. She was able to care for Charlie, provide her with her medication for what turned out to be a double ear infection and when I picked her up, she seemed very understanding of the medications purpose and dosing instructions. Best dog sitter we have ever had, hands down! We will definitely be contacting Victoria again for our next trip away!”
“Marty and her family were truly outstanding. This was the first time I left my dog with anyone other than family, and she filled that void. She provided frequent communication of his acclimation to her house and family, along with updates of activities she had planned for him. My dog left Marty's happy and relaxed. Very thankful for Marty; we will be back!”
“Holly is clearly a dog lover - and she pampered our little dog even more than we do! Lots of activity and plenty of cuddles - plus great communication and photos everyday. Thanks Holly.”
“my dogs must have enjoyed it because they didn’t act any different getting in the car and going home. They barely missed us. I can tell this family enjoyed taking care of my dogs and I was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were in good hands.”
“Highly recommend! Cooper was well taken care of and Martha provided regular updates with photos. She went above and beyond, taking him for walks and playing fetch. It was heart warming to see Cooper cuddle up to her as we left, not wanting to leave. A true testament to her care and attention. We will definitely be seeing her for future boarding opportunities!”
“Jessica & Matt are amazing! They updated me everyday with photos and how my pup was doing. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a dog sitter. Thank you again, to both of you for taking such good care of Charlie, I never worried once while I was gone, knowing he was in your care😊”

About: As a dedicated cat lover and Animal Science student at CSU, I have extensive experience caring for cats, including my own four feline companions. I understand the unique personalities and needs of cats, from providing the right balance of playtime and affection to ensuring they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. My aspiration to attend vet school and my hands on experience with cats make me the perfect choice for your feline friend's care. Your cat's happiness and well being are my top priorities, and I treat every cat with the love and attention they deserve.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life. From dogs to hermit crabs, kitties to turtles. But dogs have always had my heart the most! (🤫 don’t tell the others) I am a very calm and steady person and have always had a comforting effect on animals and people alike. Caregiving is something I come by naturally. So when I’m given the responsibility to care for someone, I take that very seriously. And I enjoy it! I will make sure your precious fur child feels safe, loved, and has so much fun! And I’m always happy to provide pictures and updates of their adventures along the way! I have a very flexible schedule at the moment. I’m available at most times during the day and able to move around my own schedule when needed. I love taking them for walks, playing with them and giving them lots of attention. I would very much appreciate knowing what your routine is, or what your expectations are for your pets care. I will stick as closely as possible to what your fur baby knows and loves.
“Marissa has been wonderful! She has gone above and beyond to take care of my kitty cats. She is very detailed and professional, and I always look forward to her updates!”
About: The one thing I love most in the world? you guessed it- cats. I’ve been a cat lover for as long as I can remember, and have owned one (or a few) ever since. I have experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities, from outgoing attention seekers to shy cats who prefer their space. I have cared for cats of all ages (kittens to seniors of 20+ years) and temperaments. I’ve cat sat for my aunt and uncle, past rover clients, and friends as well. I understand how important it is to keep cats comfortable, maintain their routines, and make sure they feel loved and safe while their owners are away. Whether your cat wants playtime, cuddles, treats, or simply a quiet companion, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they need. 😊🐾
“We are very pleased with Lauren's service! She's kind, timely and professional! I feel assured that my pets will be well taken care of when Lauren is pet sitting for us. I also enjoy the pics she sends us of the cats with updates.”
“Denise has done several drop in visits for our bulldogs, she was on time, kept me updated, sent cute photos, and my dogs loved being let outside mid-day! I would recommend her. we will continue to ise her services”
“Emily took care of my 5 cats while I was gone for a weekend. I have an elderly cat that had some special requirements and she did great taking care of her and sending me pictures. It is hard leaving the fur babies and it is so nice to have someone who genuinely cares for animals taking good care of them. This was my first time using a service like this and I was very pleased.”
About: I currently work as a veterinary assistant part time which I am incredibly passionate about! I love working with all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, reptiles, exotics, rodents. I am highly familiar with medication administration including injections, as well as aftercare following surgery, and I have lots of enrichment ideas for your pets to have a blast while theyre in my care! I treat every animal as if they were my own- with the utmost care, I hope to leave you feeling stress free while your baby is taken care of❤️ I currently work part time in Mason as a veterinary assistant. I plan to start veterinary nursing school in the fall so for now I have availability throughout the week for drop ins, walks, or even some overnight stays I do not have an environment at my house for dogs such as a fenced in yard but I do know of wonderful dog parks!
“I recently worked with Alexandria to care for my cat, Juniper, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She was incredibly professional and attentive, ensuring Juniper was well cared for while I was away. I returned to a happy cat and a house just as I left it. The communication was excellent, and I appreciated the thoughtful updates and photos. I highly recommend Alexandria and look forward to working together again in the future.”

About: I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and communicative. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I focus on providing consistent care, following routines closely, and keeping owners informed every step of the way. I work in education with summers free and much flexibility. I am happy to provide care at the time of day your pets need it! My home offers a safe and clean environment for pets. I have 3 cats who get along with other animals. In others’ homes, I offer respect for the space and reliability to follow instructions.
“Higgins was a happy boy with Layla. I would ask her to watch Higgins anytime. She was easy to communicate with, sent pictures, followed instructions, and most importantly Higgins was happy and well taken care of!”
About: With over 25 years of experience in caring for dogs and horses, I approach pet sitting with an understanding of animal behavior and a compassionate approach. Whether your furry friend is a playful pup or an anxious companion, I use positive reinforcement techniques to create a safe and nurturing environment. I have a friendly 4-year-old golden retriever, Lily, who gets along wonderfully with other dogs, providing a perfect playmate for your pup. I regularly care for friends and family's pets, and have watched dogs recovering from surgeries and in need of medication. Our spacious 2.5-acre property offers plenty of room for dogs to roam, explore, and enjoy playtime in a safe setting. From daily walks to playing fetch in the yard, your pets will be in loving hands. Having used Rover to book pet care for my dog, Lily, I understand that leaving your dog can be nerve-wracking. Let me provide the peace of mind you deserve while you're away, knowing your beloved dog is receiving top-notch care! Working from home allows me to spend time with your dog throughout the day and attend to them as much as needed. I walk every day and am happy to take your pup along with me if they love walks too! With 2.5 acres and a super friendly, welcoming golden retriever, Lily, I'd love to welcome your dog into our home. We want your dog(s) to cozy in and feel at home, and welcome them sleeping in our room or in their crate, however they are most comfortable.
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, which has given me a lifelong understanding of pets’ needs, personalities, and routines. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve regularly dog sat for family friends for extended periods of time, both in their homes and at my own. What sets me apart is the safe, comfortable environment I can provide—my home has plenty of indoor space for pets to relax and play, along with a spacious yard where they can run around and get exercise. There are no children or other household factors that may concern owners, allowing me to provide a calm, attentive, and stress-free experience for every pet in my care. As an online summer student, I have a flexible schedule, reliable transportation, and ample time to provide dependable pet care, walks, visits, exercise, and companionship. I provide a safe, caring environment in my spacious home or yours, with dog walking, feeding, exercise, supervision, and companionship. My ample yard, quiet dirt road, and lakeside location keep pets secure and away from busy traffic.
About: I have been around animals my entire life and currently own a dachshund, golden doodle, 4 goats & 24 chickens. I work from home most of the week so I am flexible to give you pet all of the cuddles while you are away. I love giving my dogs the chance to meet new friends. I am comfortable around any size dog and have plenty of experience. Feel free to contact me and consider my services. I am currently working part time at home and part time at work. I also have the flexibility to stay home with your pet if necessary. I have 6 acres of property for your baby to explore but can keep on a leash if more comfortable roaming with me. If your baby is most comfortable in a crate or snuggling in bed either is fine with me.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire adult life and have dog sat for friends and family many times over the years. I am happy to be able to give your pet a home away from home! I am a SAHM so I have all day to keep an eye on your fur baby. I have a flexible schedule that allows for easy care routines that work with your pups needs. I have a fenced yard. I currently have a dog and cat that are both socialized and ready to make new friends! I also have elementary aged kids who love to play fetch and give extra pettings. No shortage of love and attention in this house!
“Leah is very kind and responsive. Our dog enjoys going over and running around the big fenced in yard and playing with her dog Rosco. Leah sends picture updates and keeps you updated. Definitely recommend and will keep using ourselves!”
About: I recently lost my Doberman who had a blood clot. I have a large fenced yard and I love dogs. If I’m available your dog will be well cared for I work weekdays but am usually home all weekend. Check with me for availability. If I am free your dog will be well cared for I have a fenced yard and my furniture is dog friendly. I can also exercise your dog at the park I can also help you with leadership training if you’d like
About: Growing up with dogs my entire life has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. I currently care for three family dogs, ranging from high-energy pups to those needing a gentler touch. I’m experienced in maintaining strict feeding schedules, administering oral medications, and providing long, stimulating walks. Whether your pet needs a marathon game of fetch or a quiet companion, I’m dedicated to making them feel safe and loved while you’re away. Pet care is my top priority during my available hours! I am fully available for walks and drop-ins throughout the work week, Monday through Friday. On weekends, I specialize in early morning visits, ensuring your pets get their breakfast, exercise, and potty breaks started on the right foot while you rest or travel. I prioritize a safe and stress-free environment for every animal in my care. Whether in your home or mine, I maintain strict leashing protocols and constant supervision. I am experienced in following specific feeding routines and medical instructions, ensuring your pet feels secure, loved, and well-attended to until you return home.
“Kelcie and Kyle take excellent care of our doggies and even sent them home with sweet notes and a gift/ toy. They are wonderful and we feel very fortunate to have them to watch our puppies!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life and have personally trained my own dogs very well. I love dogs and am a great person to look after anyone's pet. I work at home on the computer. So I have time to take care of my dogs as well as others. I'm outside playing with my dogs all the time. I have 20 acres of land that is super safe for dogs. I have a fenced in area with a pool dogs are welcome to and fenced in grass backyard area that I keep open so dogs can go in and out for food/water and bathroom. I have few miles of custom made walking trails safe for dogs. All really safe and far from roads in the middle of the neighborhood block. All dogs have a lot of fun at my house. I have tons of room in my house. My front yard is incredibly spacious and has an electric pavilion that I keep food and water for dogs at in the daytime.
About: We’ve loved and cared for animals our entire lives and have years of hands-on experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and physical needs. That lifelong experience helped us create a home designed specifically for dogs’ safety and comfort, where we care for only one pup at a time so we can give them our full attention. With a fenced yard, lots of supervision, and very little time spent alone, your dog will enjoy a calm, loving environment filled with playtime, cuddles, and personalized care. Our daily routine is built around the dogs in our care. One of us is home most of the day, so your pup will have very little, if any, time alone. We provide regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time in our fenced yard, play sessions, walks (if that’s part of their routine), and plenty of cuddle and relax time throughout the day. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, and medication schedule so their stay feels familiar, comfortable, and stress-free. We offer a calm, safe, and loving home for your dog while you’re away. We intentionally care for only one dog at a time, so your pup gets our full attention and a peaceful, stress-free stay (no crowded doggy sleepovers here!).
“Our dog had a great time, and we received plenty of updates and details regarding her stay, which we really appreciated. We were glad to see that Maggie made new friends, and she came back happy and tired!”
About: I have a very dog and cat friendly place to call home. Most days I am outside working around the property and the dogs are out with us. I’ve raised our dogs from 8 weeks old and the Labs are obedience trained and have taken their Canine Good Citizen class to hopefully be Therapy dogs soon. Our Pug is the youngest and raised by the Labs and of course, me. In the evenings it’s relax in the chair time. The dogs love to snuggle up and just nap after playing outside. I make my own work schedule and am able to fit work around pets. Usually only leaving the dogs for an errand run here and there. I go outside with all dogs and walk them on the property. I feed 2 times a day plus a snack or whatever is necessary for any visiting pet along with fresh water at all times. All pets have free range of the house day and night unless otherwise requested. I have an outdoor kennel for nice days if they need to be outside for a little while.

About: We have a chihuahua mix at home but take care of our neighbors dogs too. Love a good dog walk and playtime! Enjoy cats and taking care of them as well. I have summers off so I am available during the week and some weekends as well. I can be available during most times and can’t wait to play with your pets! Drop in pet care service with no overnight abilities. Happy to stop by and feed, play, or walk your pet. Or just as simple as letting your dog out for a potty break if that is all you need.
About: I have always been around animals my whole life and grew up with multiple pets, caring for them since they were babies up until they were seniors. I’m 25 years old, going to school at Eastern Michigan University to become an elementary teacher. I’m very active and love to be outdoors! I love and treat my pets as if they were family and plan to do the same for your fur babies! I‘ve cat sat for my aunt and uncle and have pet sat for my friends and family as well as past clients on rover, and have worked on a farm in the past caring for horses, barn kitties and dogs. I really enjoy caring for all animals and i’m looking forward to care for yours as if they were my own! I’m a fast learner and very dependable so if your pets need any special treatments you could just let me know and show me how you approach it and I will do the same! My late St. Bernard was on heart medication so I know how to trick even the stubbornest dogs to take their pills or eat if they’re old and don’t have much of an appetite as they used to. I have recently moved to the Howell area and live in an apartment, however my complex is super dog friendly and my apartment has a big (unfenced) yard behind it (would have to keep your dogs leashed if they’re boarded here) with many trails! I’m looking forward to hearing from you and taking care of your furry friends 😊🐾 My schedule is very open for the summer, since I’m on summer break before I begin student teaching in late August. I’m available Monday-Friday, as well as some weekends! I frequently dog sit for my friends and family, with most of my experience being with dogs between a year-fourteen years old, and same goes for cats. When I enter someone’s home I make sure to never approach their pets and let them approach me (because I know it can be nerve-wracking for them to meet a new person at times). I usually let dogs out every hour or more if needed and enjoy going for walks with them or playing fetch or any other games to keep them entertained. I follow the instructions given by the parents of our fluffy friends very closely, feed times, medicine times, treat times, etc. If I need to I usually set reminders so I have a backup reminder if needed. Along with caring for their pets I also clean up after them, litter boxes, toys, their outside duties, and whatever the pet parent instructs. I currently just moved to the Howell area and have not gotten a pet of my own yet, however I can pet sit your pets at my apartment if they’re potty trained, or can take care of them at your house as well!
About: I don’t just watch pets, I connect with them. As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I bring calm, intuitive care that helps pets feel safe, happy, and understood. I’m certified in Cat and Dog First Aid through the American Red Cross, so your furry family member is in capable hands, whether they’re a playful puppy, a wise senior, or a shy kitty who needs a gentle approach. I’m reliable, flexible, and endlessly patient, with a creative touch that keeps pets engaged and stress-free while you’re away. From energetic walks to quiet cuddle sessions, I tailor care to each pet’s unique personality. Think of me as your pet’s new favorite human. I also have a background in video and photography and I take great pet photos :) As a freelancer with a flexible schedule, I structure my days around important priorities, like your pet’s routine. I’m available weekdays and weekends, and I can easily accommodate feeding times, play sessions, and royal check-ins. During drop-in visits, I treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give my own. I’m reliable and on time, and I stick closely to your pet’s established routine to keep things familiar and stress-free. Whether it’s refreshing food and water, cleaning up, or spending quality time together, I make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and well cared for in their own space.
About: I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and communicative. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I focus on providing consistent care, following routines closely, and keeping owners informed every step of the way. I work in education with summers free and much flexibility. I am happy to provide care at the time of day your pets need it! My home offers a safe and clean environment for pets. I have 3 cats who get along with other animals. In others’ homes, I offer respect for the space and reliability to follow instructions.
About: In our home every dog is a priority to us. We schedule activities around their needs and energy levels. We love to play outside, go for walks around our neighborhood and snuggle before bed. Our puppy is very high energy and loves to make new friends. The dogs will be in a safe environment, with a fenced yard, and will be given a bed time snack! We allow animals on all furniture within our home and in our bed to sleep at night, we also have a pallet dog bed available in our room. We are available most nights and weekends and are willing to keep your pup for an extended period of time. We would love schedule a day to meet you and your dog soon!
“Alexandria is great with our two very different dogs! Herbie is older and loud and Lola is young and energetic but quiet. Even in the current deep freeze she got them out for me (despite Herbie’s protests)! Thank you 😊”
About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and that hands-on experience is what I bring to every walk. I understand dog body language, pacing, leash manners, and how to read when a dog needs a break or a bit more activity — not from a course, but from years of actually living with dogs day to day. I treat every walk the same way I would for my own dog: attentive, on time, and focused entirely on their safety and comfort for the full duration. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little nervous around new people, or just needs a steady routine, I adjust to what they need rather than running a one-size-fits-all walk. You can expect clear communication before and after every visit, so you always know exactly how things went. My schedule is flexible throughout the day, so dog walking isn't squeezed into a narrow window — it's a real part of my daily routine. That means I can offer consistent mid-morning, afternoon, or early evening walks, and I'm also able to accommodate last-minute requests or changes in timing without it being a scramble. If your schedule shifts week to week, I can usually adjust to match it. Safety is the first thing I think about with every walk. When I arrive, I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before I bring your dog out, and I make sure the leash and collar or harness are properly fitted before we leave — no slipping out mid-walk. I stick to routes I know well, avoid off-leash areas unless specifically asked, and keep a close eye on other dogs, traffic, and anything that could startle or spook your dog. I always carry water on hot days and adjust the pace or length of the walk based on weather and how your dog is doing that day. Before I leave, I make sure your home is exactly as I found it — doors locked, lights as they were, nothing out of place. If anything ever comes up during a walk, you'll hear from me right away, not after the fact.

“Grace does really well with Rocky. She takes great care to make sure he goes to the bathroom, enjoys his walk, and has water in his dish before she leaves. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
About: Hey, I’m Patrick! I am a recent graduate of Michigan State University who is moving back home to earn some extra cash to help pay off my student loans. I have had 2 dogs in the span of my life so far and have lots of experience walking, feeding, playing, giving medicine, and loving my dogs. I would happily take care of yours and can guarantee their safety while also giving them a fun vacation of their own. I am back home until further notice and am free all year long to take care of your pets! Whatever it may be, I’ll be there for you. I have a large fenced yard at home as well as a golden doodle of my own to keep your dogs company if staying in my home. I also have all the equipment needed for plenty of walks, water, food, and sleep regardless of the home I stay at.
About: With years of hands on experience caring for a variety of pets, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their unique needs. From my own furry family of 3 dogs, 4 cats, a bunny, and a horse, I’ve learned the importance of being attentive, patient, and nurturing. My studies in Animal Science at CSU have further equipped me with the knowledge to care for pets with expertise and compassion. Whether it's administering medication, providing enrichment activities, or simply offering companionship, I ensure that every pet under my care feels safe, loved, and well cared for. With my current class schedule, I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. On most days, my classes are spread out, leaving me with large blocks of free time in the late morning, early afternoon, and evening. This allows me to be available for multiple visits throughout the day to ensure your pets receive the attention and care they need. Whether it's morning feedings, midday walks, or evening check-ins, I can easily fit pet care into my routine without any conflict. In caring for pets at clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow a detailed routine based on your pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions. I ensure that their living space remains clean and safe, and I offer plenty of attention and enrichment to keep them happy. I also maintain open communication with you to update you on how your pet is doing and address any concerns promptly. My goal is to provide seamless, loving care that makes your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you're away.
“I love Lauren! I'm a first time Rover, or any sitter service user. She knows all the questions to ask. She is calm and sweet, And portrays confidence. I will stick with Lauren for my pet needs as long as she is available”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, I had a shih-tzu that I raised and currently have an alaskan klee kai that is my soul dog. I LOVE both dogs and cats, they are such a light in this world. My friend and I used to dog sit for her neighbor once a month, and I dog walked for my neighbor every day for two years, as well as dog sat for her whenever she went on vacation! I know I may not have experience on this app specifically, but I have lots of experience in real life and I would be a great fit for your needs! I’m currently looking for a part time job so I can go back to college, and my friend suggested I check out rover, which I LOVE the idea of! I will also be moving to Lansing very soon! I can crate your animals if needed, take them on walks, feed and water them, play with them, snuggle on them, give them medication, whatever you need I can do as long as it’s safe to do it! Thank you for your consideration:)
About: I have owned cats my entire life and our family currently have 6 cats (2 are my daughter’s). We have a Miniature Australian Shepard named Rooney! In the past our family had a Brittany Spaniel named Sydney and a Maltese named Jeter. They have all taught me something different, not to mention that just when you think you KNOW everything about animals, you learn something new! 🤣🐾 When it comes to experience, I have my 18-year old daughter to thank for introducing me to the pet care field and helping to grow my experience with farm animals (horses, goats, pigs, donkeys, sheep, chickens, ducks, and the occasional stray barn cat🥰🐾) as well as cats and dogs. Going along with Emma made me realize that this is something I want to do all of the time! So whether you have cats, dogs, caged animals/reptiles, or more, I’d love to help take care of them while you are away. Giving you peace of mind while making your pets feel safe and loved is my number one priority. I take pride in being a kind, honest, and trustworthy adult that would love to earn the loyalty of your commitment as one of your regular pet sitters. Your pets are as important to me as they are to you while you are away. I will check, recheck and then check again to make certain every step has been followed to ensure that your loved ones are well cared for, while looking out for anything that might be “off”. You can’t be too careful and sometimes an animals’ “signs” for need or distress can be quite subtle. So I never just pop in and out, but rather I facilitate well-visits! That means carefully following your detailed instructions and care notes. I always welcome as much input from you, along with a Meet and Greet prior to caring for your fur babies, so you can introduce us, help create trust, and provide me with the important details of your day-to-day routine. This helps me to best provide routine and structure (mixed with lots of spoiling and extra treats) for your little ones. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies! 🥰🐾💝 I work full time as a teacher and tutor during the week, but Friday evening and weekends are wide open for helping you take a weekend getaway or enjoying an all-day getaway without your fur baby being left alone. I know how hard it is for me to leave my pets. The few trips I’ve taken were only possible because of caring neighbors that watched our cats/dog and sent lots of pictures for reassurance! ❤️ I am a rule-follower and will use your detailed directions to take care of your fur/feather/hair babies just as you describe! It’s my main goal to make your pets feel safe, loved and cared for while giving you peace of mind so your absence is a treat for both of you! 🎉🧁🍭🦴🍖
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life dogs, horses, cats, and more, and have been caring for them since I was about 7 or 8 years old. I have a deep passion for animals and truly enjoy giving them the care, attention, and love they deserve. I’d love the opportunity to take care of your pet as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule and am usually available throughout the week, with occasional availability on weekends as well. At my other job, I typically work weekends, but I’m often able to arrange coverage when needed. I do my best to be accommodating and reliable, and I’m happy to communicate in advance to make sure scheduling works smoothly for both you and your pet. For your pet’s comfort and safety, I prefer to provide care in my clients homes. I currently don’t have a fenced in yard, and I also have other dogs, which I understand may make some pets or owners uncomfortable. Caring for pets in their own environment allows them to stay relaxed, stick to their routine, and receive one on one attention.
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was little. My parents got a puppy when I was born and we grew up together. I now have two fur babies of my own, a dog named Nala and a cat named Barbie. I currently work a full time job as a preschool teacher so I have time to care for your fur babies on the weekend the most or on the weekdays at 5pm. It would be best suited for me to care your babies at their homes. I would make sure to get a good idea of what their daily routine looks like at home so I can keep them feeling comfortable and relaxed.

“If you want to treat your dog for the spa / vacation while you are gone , do not look any other place ! They are so amazing and lovely . Zoe is also a sweetheart 😍My dog fell in love with both of them instantly! I can not explain how wonderful and lovely they both are . Will definitely bring my dog back”
“Stephanie and Al are thee greatest sitters we have ever had for our dogs. They love these dogs like their own. They have been caring for our dogs for years and we couldn’t be happier!!!”
“Laura was the best sitter ever! She sent pictures along with daily updates every day. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Leaving my dog with Laura was the most comfortable I have ever felt with anyone ever. Thank you Laura!”
“Ziggy loves boarding with Mandy 😊 She sends daily pics and updates, which is so relieving and it’s nice to see him enjoying his stay while I’m away. She is flexible, responsive, and takes great care of Ziggy. Thanks Mandy!”
“Kelly and Brandon are fantastic sitters - I couldn’t ask for them to do anything differently. My pup was safe, well cared for, and tired out by all the fun she was having.”
“I can’t say enough positive about our first experience with rover which was with Kelsey and Kyle. They took tremendous care of our little yorkie girl who usually is clingy about us but when we picked her up and Kyle left the room she whined and in the two years we’ve had her, we had never heard her whine. They also sent us pics of our girl enjoying her day!! They’re great!!”
“Leah was wonderful! She took excellent care of our two dogs! She sent updates with pictures & videos which made us very comfortable. Highly recommend! We will definitely use Leah again!”
“We had such a positive experience with Victoria! She went above and beyond with communication throughout Charlie’s stay and when Charlie wasn’t seeming to be feeling good, she reached out to let us know and even took her to the vet for us. She was able to care for Charlie, provide her with her medication for what turned out to be a double ear infection and when I picked her up, she seemed very understanding of the medications purpose and dosing instructions. Best dog sitter we have ever had, hands down! We will definitely be contacting Victoria again for our next trip away!”
“Marty and her family were truly outstanding. This was the first time I left my dog with anyone other than family, and she filled that void. She provided frequent communication of his acclimation to her house and family, along with updates of activities she had planned for him. My dog left Marty's happy and relaxed. Very thankful for Marty; we will be back!”
“Highly recommend! Cooper was well taken care of and Martha provided regular updates with photos. She went above and beyond, taking him for walks and playing fetch. It was heart warming to see Cooper cuddle up to her as we left, not wanting to leave. A true testament to her care and attention. We will definitely be seeing her for future boarding opportunities!”
“Jessica & Matt are amazing! They updated me everyday with photos and how my pup was doing. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a dog sitter. Thank you again, to both of you for taking such good care of Charlie, I never worried once while I was gone, knowing he was in your care😊”
“Laura was wonderful. She had a fenced yard and two dogs for our dog to play with. She was so understanding when he had some loose stools. Even fed him some rice. She went above and beyond. I wish she had clones in every place we stay. Would definitely use again. She also kept us updated and sent pictures.”
“My dog sitter had to cancel at the last minute which is how I found Kellie's page. She allowed me to do a meet and greet to make sure my dog got along with her dogs, and it went great. I got daily pictures and videos of my dog, Koda, playing and having the best time. (I was gone for 8 nights) Kellie and Paige took great care of Koda, and I was at ease knowing they had experience with nervous dogs before. I highly recommend Kellie!”
“Great experience! Appreciated the daily updates. Seems like they were treated like family. Marija’s home and yard is a perfect setting for lots of playing and comfy time.”
“Kim is a fantastic pet sitter who cares for my fur baby exceptionally well. She is friendly, trustworthy, and caring. This is already our third visit, and my dog has enjoyed his stay each time.”
“Our Breck just loves when he gets a chance stay with “Auntie Sheila”. ★★★★★ I couldn’t ask for a better place to leave my dog while traveling! The care, attention, and love she provides make it feel like a second home, and I always come back to a happy, well-cared-for pup. Her professionalism and updates (with pictures) give me complete peace of mind—I highly recommend her!”
“Bill was just great at keeping me posted regarding the well being of my dog. His appetite, bowel movements, and sleep were reported to me daily. His well being kept me relieved and reassured so I was able to relax without worries. Thank you Bill and Sandy!”
“Linda watched our girl for a week and we were able to have a great trip knowing she was in good hands! Our dog is older and takes several medications so we were very happy to find a place for her to stay where she could be well cared for in a quiet home environment instead of a boarding facility. Linda took very good care of her and sent us many photo updates! I would definitely reach out again for any future dog sitting needs. Thanks Linda! ?”
“Jenna did a wonderful job taking care of my Standard Poodle. After our meet and greet where I met Jenna, her husband and 2 dogs I felt they were an attentive and dog loving and dog centered family. I really appreciated their fenced yard and their flexibility and understanding that my dog was not perfectly trained, she still jumps and does not go for walks calmly. It was clear that Jenna's family was going to provide the same loving attention and lots of activity (playing with their dogs) my dog receives at home. Jenna was responsive when we communicated, she would answer within a few minutes. She sent pictures and updates. I could not have asked for a better sitter for my dog and I will definitely use them again in the future. My dog was happy and well cared for by Jenna!”
