“Toni did a great job with my high energy, large dog. She kept him safe and healthy. I didn’t have to worry at all about Gene while he was in her care, which was a huge relief while on vacation.”
“Glad I found Stephanie! She took care of my 2 girls for a couple of nights while I went out of town. The girls had fun and were tuckered out from all the fun! Would definitely recommend if your dog needs a place to stay! She loves animals ❤️”
“I have used quite a few rover families in the past but Caroline is by far the best ever!!! She will love on your dog as much as you do (if not more). Her home is set up perfectly for pups, with a large fenced in backyard and open layout. My Frenchie had the most amazing time playing with the other dogs there. She sent tons of videos which was so thoughtful and appreciated. We would recommend 100% Cant wait for chow to stay with her again.”
“Tracey gave great directions to her home and what to bring with Lukie for his first stay with her. She seemed competent and confident and I liked that she was laid back when we arrived, so therefore Lukie mirrored her energy and settled right in. She sent us a picture every day and responded to my comments. We recommend Tracey highly and will use her again . Thank you, Rover!”
“Our dog had a wonderful visit with Barbara and Dirk. They have a great setup for dogs, are friendly, and are good communicators. They even put up with us being later than expected on pickup. We’ll definitely use them again.”
“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!”
“Would not trust anyone else with our 100 pound lab. 7 days away and pictures and updates daily. Made our vacation pet worry free. Thank you for taking care of our girl!”
“Sara was so wonderful! Our dog Jovie stayed with her for a long weekend when our plans changed and needed a sitter on short notice. She was so accommodating on meeting beforehand and Jovie took to her well. She got lots of walks and extra love with Sara. Jovie came home happy and we were so grateful to have lots of updates and photos during our trip for ease of mind! Thanks Sara!”
“Deana and her husband took wonderful care of our dog while we were away! They kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout her stay and made her feel at home. We were grateful to find such a wonderful host for our aging dog!”
“I have spoiled rotten dogs that I hate to leave behind. Laura is so kind and caring, I felt my 2 dogs were always being well attended to and loved. She sent me many wonderful pictures and updates making me feel comfortable and able to enjoy our trip. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“Michael did a great job looking after our German shepherd, Kainoa. She enjoyed going on walks with him and playing fetch in his fenced backyard! Michael was very attentive to our instructions regarding Kai's care. Will definitely book with him again!”
“This couple was fantastic! They sent regular photos and updates on our boys. They had took our 2 pitbull boxers for the weekend and handled them so well. My husband and I would absolutely hire them again for our pet needs!”
“Our dog loves Leah. She starts wagging her tail as soon as we arrive at her home. Leah is wonderful to work with. She sends pictures updating you on your dog’s adventures.”
“Holly is an amazing woman. She welcomed Oliver into her home so warmly and lovingly. He is a little nervous around new people. She immediately made him feel comfortable. Within minutes he acted like he lived there! He was curious and very happy exploring. He was so peaceful snuggling with her and Lisa. I was confident he would be well cared for. Holly sent me regular pictures and updates which we really appreciated and enjoyed. I highly recommend her and will definitely ask her to watch him in the future.”
“Mandy was fantastic!! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter. She was very communicative and provided pictures and updates daily! Our Maggie was so happy and loved while we were away!”
“Absolutely incredible!!! Took such good care of our pup while we were away. Kept us updated on how he was doing with lots of pictures. Was such a great experience and made us feel comfortable leaving our pup. We will definitely be using them again to watch Melo!”
“Joni is absolutely the BEST! I have a 6 year old Australian Cattle Dog that loves constant attention. I’ve tried traditional boarding in the past at a “pet retreat” but my dog does not typically get along well with other dogs even though I’ve socialized him with training classes, walks, and with other dogs visiting the house. I was worried about leaving my dog for a week since he can’t be with other dogs but Joni handled it with no issues! Joni offered a meet and greet for my dog to get acclimated with her home and a few treats to entice him back. Communication was frequent while I was out of town and Joni even provided pictures. Bottom line, you can’t find anyone better than Joni to care for your dog and I will be booking with Joni in the future!”
“This was my first time using Rover and due to some medical needs, was very last minute. I booked with Shannon and she did an awesome job with my frenchie. I received pictures every day and periodical updates on how she was doing. I would definitely work with her again!”

“I am so thankful for Hannah taking care of my cat while I was out of town. I had to leave last minute for my dads funeral and memorial services. The washing machine flooded the basement, ankle deep, the night before the flight out- not the only disaster. With Hannah / Rover, my kitty was one thing that was in good hands, one less worry. I messed up dates on the app, Hannah fixed it. She called me to let me know the power was shut off so I was able to fix it same day. I accidentally ordered a bunch of books that got delivered after we left, she brought them in. 10/10 would recommend. Happy happy cat and everything good when we got back.”
“Annelies care for my cat exceeded my expectations. Beyond taking care of my cats basic needs she played with her and even used a harness to take her outside to her favorite spots. She took photos of these activities and reported to me daily. I give Annelie my highest recommendation.”
“This was the first time that Kara took care of our kitties for us. We had a nice meet and greet a couple days before we left and I felt confident that they were in good hands.? Really enjoy receiving the messages and pictures! We will definitely have her take care of them again!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and there's nothing I enjoy more than making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their families are away. To give some insight into my experience, I have volunteered at my local humane society, caring for both cats and dogs. I also worked as a kennel attendant at a dog boarding facility, where I learned the importance of patience, routine, and paying close attention to each animal's individual needs. That experience taught me how valuable consistency and gentle care are, especially for pets with special diets, medications, or unique personalities. Over the years, I've been the go to pet sitter for friends and family, caring for cats of all ages and temperaments. Whether your cat is playful and energetic, shy and independent, or simply enjoys a cozy lap and quiet company, I'll happily follow their routine and give them the care they need to feel secure. At home, I'm owned by my sweet gray cat, Misty. She reminds me every day that every cat has their own unique personality, boundaries, and little quirks. Caring for her has made providing love, patience, and companionship second nature. When your cat is in my care, they're not just being looked after, they'll be treated like one of my own. I can't wait to meet your feline family member! 🤍
About: I’ve had multiple cats all my life. I bring to the table 30+ years of cat experience. I have experience from taking care of them from birth and bottle fed to senior cat care. I’m a pro at keeping the litter box clean and the cats purring and kneading happy kitty biscuits.
About: I personally own two cats who are like my children, so I am very familiar with caring for cats and understanding their individual needs. I have extensive experience caring for cats and genuinely enjoy interacting with each one. I can ensure they are comfortable, happy in their environment, and provided with a safe and enriching experience. Services I offer: • House sitting (My Basic House-Sitting service includes staying overnight with your Cat/Cats so they have company and comfort in their own home, along with daytime care every 4-6 hours for litter box clean up, meals, playtime, and cuddles.) • Cat Walking (30 Minute Cat Walks include a fun slow stroll around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your cat the enrichment, fresh air, and mental stimulation they need during the day. This only works if your cat has no problem with it which is understand is rare.) • Drop-ins (30 Minute Drop-Ins include checking the litter box, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away.)
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.
“I am so happy Sara is on Rover! She has watched my cats and dogs for years. Knowing Sara is caring for my animals gives me peace of mind. She checks in on my girls while I am at work. I know my pets are safe with Sara. Just meeting her you can tell she truly loves animals! Penelope & Mille are so excited to see Sara again soon! Thanks, Sara!!”
“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.”

“Fantastic. Sasha is a dog whisperer. Dogs were excited to visit each day. She was accommodating with our schedule. Felt like our dogs ( aka children) were in amazing care!”
“Amanda's home had 2 dogs and 4 kids which were perfect for our very social dog to interact with. Amanda was flexible on the drop off and pick up times and provided us with photos and updates during our dog's stay. I would recommend Amanda for your dog's stay.”
“Sheila is an amazing person and caregiver! Today was our dog’s first day with her, and our doggo was loved and very well taken care of. Thank you, Sheila!!”
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: 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!
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I grew up on a dairy goat farm. All sorts of dogs, horses, cats, cows, goats, etc. I have had Chihuahuas all the way through German Shepherds. Puppy age all the way through their whole lives. I am the biggest animal (especially dog) lover! I love meeting new personalities. I would spend 24/7 lounging around with my dogs & cats if I could!🩷 I currently have a 16 year old Minature Schnauzer, and an under 1 year old Goldendoodle. My old girl currently takes quite a few medications and likes her alone time. My little man loves to play, be active, and requires hands on often. Therefore, I work with a spectrum of needs. I will make sure your baby has all the play time (or alone/rest time) they need!🩷 I am a professional MMA fighter & bar tend on the weekends! Most of my job consists of being at the gym just a couple hours at a time. And I live 5 minutes away from where I train! It makes spending time with & caring for pets easy and frequent. I only bar tend two days on the weekend (and my boyfriend is home most of that time too 😁 ) Home visits 🏡: In my client’s homes, I can easily care for your pets however you need. I will play games with your furry friends, lounge around with them, etc. I am a very active person & love taking long walks myself, so I would love to do that with your dog if you’d like! I am a reliable, very detail oriented gal. Whatever instructions you leave, I’ll get them done. I love when my clients can come back to a clean, comfortable space after caring for their fur babies. Boarding 🐶: I have a fenced in back yard on a quieter side street. We have an older Miniature Schnauzer, under 1 year old Goldendoodle, and two gentle, quiet cats that lounge around (pretty much keeping to themselves) 🩷 I have plenty of space in my living area to have the zoomies. I have a spare room to give your pet some rest and seclusion too! That means I also have ample room to crate your doggie, if needed. We would love to have your best friend come hang with us 🙂
“She is so fantastic! Her backyard is huge. Our dogs are still asleep and it's 16 hours since we picked them up. We're definitely going to ask her to dog sit them again. She's very friendly and open and communicates very well. We also got pictures during the day which was really nice. I think they had a fantastic time.”
“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: 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 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: 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.
“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!”
“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: 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!).
About: I've had and helped care for many different animals since I was a child including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and chickens. We have 2 little boys in our home as well as a laid back newfoundland dog and 2 cats. Can administer medicine if needed and will try every trick in the book if needed to make it happen. I work part time from home so I will be home almost 24/7 besides the occasional errands. Animals can be with me as much as they would like. Dogs can be taken out and walked as often as needed. Animals can be allowed the run of the house or we also have a seperate downstairs area when some alone time is preferred or needed. Cats can be enclosed in a large quiet room with a tall gate if they prefer with seperate litter box. Crates are available for use upon request.
“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: Caring for your pets while you’re away brings me so much joy because I genuinely love animals and understand how important they are to your family. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s daily walks, in-home visits, or overnight care, I’ll ensure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for. Your peace of mind is my priority, and I’m committed to being someone you can fully trust with your furry friends. Im very flexible with scheduling due to my children being in school. I absolutely adore all animals and look forward to the extra cuddles and love while my girls are away! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily schedule, allowing me to dedicate the time and attention your furry friends deserve while ensuring they stay happy, healthy, and loved. I have a lead in my backyard for my dog. He is crate trained but hasn’t stepped foot in one for years. He snuggles in our bed at night and absolutely loves our children and cat. My cat is 15 years old and hides out majority of the days. He doesn’t mind other pets and only wakes to eat and use the restroom( he’s an old man♥️)

“Kara was amazing when I needed a last minute dog walker. She came everyday on time and communicated when she picked Moose up and dropped him off. She even wrote notes about the walk! I could not have found a better/sweeter friend for Moose that week! Thank you Kara!”
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.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and there's nothing I enjoy more than making pets feel safe, loved, and right at home while their families are away. To give some insight on my experience, I have volunteered at my local humane society, caring for both dogs and cats. I then spent some time as a kennel attendant at a dog boarding facility where I cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs. That experience alone taught me the importance of patience, routine, and attention to detail, especially when it comes to special diets and individualized care. Over the years, I've also been the go to pet sitter for friends and family, caring for dogs and cats of all ages. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles, I'm happy to match their routine and make sure they feel comfortable. At home, I'm owned by my sweet gray cat, Misty. Keeping her happy has made providing constant love and companionship second nature. When your pet is with me, they're not just being watched, they're being cared for like one of my own. I can't wait to meet your furry family member!! 🤍 I'm currently working full time in the restaurant industry. 90% of the time my schedule is 4pm-11:30pm Fri-Teu leaving some midday and late night availability. Please don't hesitate to reach out if your request falls outside of my availability as I may be able to accommodate if there's enough time ahead. I look forward to meeting you and your furry pet! 🤍 I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where every pet receives personalized care based on their routine and needs. I carefully follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, ensure plenty of exercise and give endless affection. In clients' homes, I respect their space, maintain their pet's normal routine, and provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind.
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.
“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 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: 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!
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.
“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: My name is Alexis I am a 21 year old animal lover. I worked at the humane society of Huron valley and have for about 1 year previously and previously worked at a boarding facility for cats and dogs.My current job is a vet receptionist/ vet assistant at VCA of Hamburg. I have experience with just about every kind of animal that you could keep as a pet. I have experience feeding them, cleaning their kennels/cages, medicating the dogs (we do not medicate the cats where I work), walking them and some small bits of clicker/leash training as well. I would love to care for your fur baby! My availability is I am free the full day on Tuesdays and Sundays otherwise it would be around my work schedule . Every other day of the week it would have to be after I get off of work, typically I am off between the 6pm-7pm range. It is my full time job to take care of animals, it is something I have always had a passion for and I was lucky enough to make a career out of it. I would not be able to provide boarding as I live in a small apartment with 2 cats who are not fond of dogs. In your home though I am willing to pretty much do whatever you would like, I’m comfortable crating animals, walking them, cleaning up after them….etc
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I grew up on a dairy goat farm. All sorts of dogs, horses, cats, cows, goats, etc. I have had Chihuahuas all the way through German Shepherds. Puppy age all the way through their whole lives. I am the biggest animal (especially dog) lover! I love meeting new personalities. I would spend 24/7 lounging around with my dogs & cats if I could!🩷 I currently have a 16 year old Minature Schnauzer, and an under 1 year old Goldendoodle. My old girl currently takes quite a few medications and likes her alone time. My little man loves to play, be active, and requires hands on often. Therefore, I work with a spectrum of needs. I will make sure your baby has all the play time (or alone/rest time) they need!🩷 I am a professional MMA fighter & bar tend on the weekends! Most of my job consists of being at the gym just a couple hours at a time. And I live 5 minutes away from where I train! It makes spending time with & caring for pets easy and frequent. I only bar tend two days on the weekend (and my boyfriend is home most of that time too 😁 ) Home visits 🏡: In my client’s homes, I can easily care for your pets however you need. I will play games with your furry friends, lounge around with them, etc. I am a very active person & love taking long walks myself, so I would love to do that with your dog if you’d like! I am a reliable, very detail oriented gal. Whatever instructions you leave, I’ll get them done. I love when my clients can come back to a clean, comfortable space after caring for their fur babies. Boarding 🐶: I have a fenced in back yard on a quieter side street. We have an older Miniature Schnauzer, under 1 year old Goldendoodle, and two gentle, quiet cats that lounge around (pretty much keeping to themselves) 🩷 I have plenty of space in my living area to have the zoomies. I have a spare room to give your pet some rest and seclusion too! That means I also have ample room to crate your doggie, if needed. We would love to have your best friend come hang with us 🙂
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.

Her home is set up perfectly for pups, with a large fenced in backyard and open layout. My Frenchie had the most amazing time playing with the other dogs there.

“If you are looking for someone to watch your dogs, do not look any further. Tristan is AMAZING! The best I’ve ever found to take care of my pups. I was nervous finding someone new because I have an anxious pitbull and a mini dachshund, he is great with all dogs. He treats your pets as if they were his own. He took my dog for lots of long walks, played with them and even went to pick up food for me when they ran out. He’s so great that I want to gatekeep my review so my pups will always have a spot on his schedule! Thank you Tristan for all that you do!”
