Her family is so warm and welcoming, and I love that she only takes one family at a time. I received pictures every night about my baby’s day. He was so happy and cared for that. I thought he might not want to come home with me. You will not be disappointed when you use Jess.”

About: Both Matt and I have taken care of animals since we were young for friends &family. We have two frenchies both are two years old ( please keep in mind when they first meet a new dog they get very excited and can have a lot of energy and LOVE to play) We have also had experience with numerous breeds. Your fur baby will have lots of fun and love in our home. Having two frenchies, we know how high maintenance some dogs can be, that’s why it’s important to us to provide the best experience for you and your fur baby. During Monday-Friday I work 8-5. However, Matt does work from home so will be able to give your fur baby all the love and attention!( if Matt does have to step out it’s typically no longer than 2 hours but not often ) If you have any questions regarding our schedule, please feel free to reach out. If for some reason Matt does have to leave for more than a couple hours, we will block that day off as we do not believe in leaving fur babies alone for long periods. We are homebodies on the weekends as well. So someone will always be with your fur baby. We will make sure your fur baby gets plenty of walks and outside time. We live in a nice/quiet neighborhood. When the weather is nice, our frenchies love to sun bathe, play fetch, we also set up their splash pad, so we spend lots of time outside. We do allow dogs on our bed and furniture( if you allow it) we will not crate your dog unless we do have to step out ( which again is not often). During the night, we will not crate unless you prefer them in a crate. Please let us know if there is any special request and we can accommodate. We do ask for a meet n greet to make sure your dogs and our two frenchies get along. Your fur baby’s safety and comfortability will always be our priority as well as our babies. We know how it feels leaving your fur baby and you might get anxious so we will make sure to send a daily update. *Please note we are happy to accommodate large dogs, they MUST get along with little dogs. We do only accept one large dog at a time. Please be sure to look at our pics as we do have a short fence, if your dog is known for jumping we may have to utilize a leash*

For new families, we need to allow a day or two for a complementary "meet and greet," and then if I'm a good fit for your pet, we can schedule walks and visits. I will settle in with your fur baby, and learn the lay of the land in the house and yard if we are at your house. We'll have some treats (if appropriate) and go out for potty, walk, and play. Then we'll rest and cuddle. Then we'll play some more!
About: I have taken care of dogs in my family and neighbors with feeding, walking, etc. I am very good and can handle large dogs/puppies as I have grown up with great danes and mastiffs! my schedule is open 4 to 5 days a week. I am looking to make this more like a part time or even full time I have a fenced in yard and three very friendly fur babies of my own. I have a very open schedule so anytime will work for me. I also love a good workout so walks/runs would be perfect!
About: I am a veterinary assistant with many years experience taking care of dogs and cats. I also have several years experience with odd animal care and husbandry. I do work full-time, so my care is going to be more focused on specialty cases and/or times that fit in with my current schedule. I am a veterinary assistant so I am familiar with animal medicine. This will translate to owners who need a little more care for their pets than a normal Rover.
About: My name is Lou, and I'm an aspiring beekeeper / amateur naturalist. I love all critters, big and small, and have a talent for effective care. I grew up around dogs, cats, and rabbits. In my recent adult life, I cared for a geriatric black cat (Jellybean) who quickly became my best friend. I miss that grumpy furball with all my heart (he has since passed). I currently help my mom care for her big ball of energy bernedoodle (Floyd). He has taught me that training a puppy takes consistency, compassion, and adaptability. We love going on walks at our local park! I have house-, cat-, dog-, chicken-, horse-, and garden-sat for many friends and colleagues, and would love to assist you with whoever you love — be they furred, scaled, winged, or environmental! We all need extra help sometimes. I'd be happy to provide care for your pet(s), so you can focus on what you need to and live the life you want, and come home to a happy healthy critter companion. My schedule is highly flexible. I prefer to work with your pet(s) during the day, but am open to evening check-in visits as well. Not currently doing overnight visits. With a little context from yourself about their routines, I will do everything in my power to make sure your pal is comfortable and happy.

About: I was grew up on a farm and have spent most of my life with animals. I worked at a local vet clinic in high school, trained horses and I have worked in rescue. My family always had at least one dog for as long as I can remember. I got my first Border Collie, Dexter, when I was thirteen. Dex and I did everything together and he's the one who made me fall in love with Border Collies and all things dog related. I have been training, showing and breeding for nearly 23 years. The dogs I have now are involved in disc, agility, dock diving, obedience and herding. I enjoy all animals but dogs and horses will always have a special place in my heart because so much of my life has been spent with them. My hours are generally very flexible and I am available whenever best suits you and your pets needs. Most of free time is spent with my dogs or with clients. I'm not watching pets at my home right now because my oldest dog doesn't like strangers and I don't want to upset him if I don't have to. *Currently rewriting my profile please excuse the chaos*

I am currently an online student at the university of Michigan flint, and do not have any obligations throughout the day or night,so I will be home the to take care of your furry friend.:) I live in an area filled with sidewalks and have my own backyard so I am able to go for plenty of walks or even just a break to get some fresh air in the backyard. I also allow all pets on all of my furniture unless you request me not to.

“Highly recommend! Our two dogs had a wonderful overnight stay. We received updates and photos throughout their visit, which made us feel so comfortable knowing they were in great hands. The care and attention they received were outstanding, and they came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely book again!”
“Andrew was seriously the BEST! I was super nervous because I had never tried boarding my cat anywhere, but Andrew provided a great place for Tomato to spend the day...so much so I don't think he wanted to leave! 😅”
“Paula and Manny took great care of Bentley, my black lab mix. Paula sent videos and pictures often which allowed me to enjoy my vacation even more knowing Bentley was having fun too!”
“Chelsie took great care of my little guy, Finn. I met her before my trip and felt comfortable leaving him with her right away. You can tell she put a lot of thought and love into making her home a great place for dogs to stay. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Finn was in good hands. I'll definitely board him with Chelsie again.”
“Rocky's home away from home was another great stay! Rocky is so relaxed with no anxiety issues. Diane you're the best and this Momma doesn't have to worry when he's in your care. Diane is my dog whisper and can follow directions. We're so happy to have found you. Until next time Auntie Diane.”
“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😊”
“I cannot say enough good things about Jess. From our first meeting, I immediately felt comfortable leaving my baby with her. Her family is so warm and welcoming, and I love that she only takes one family at a time. I received pictures every night about my baby’s day. He was so happy and cared for that. I thought he might not want to come home with me. You will not be disappointed when you use Jess.”
“Brittany was such a great sitter for our pups and very communicative. Our dogs had a great time and were very well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to re-book with her!”
“Jackie was amazing! She offered a meet and greet before hand which made me feel at ease the day I had to drop my 'puppies' off for a week. She sent me updates and made them feel right at home. I can not thank Jackie enough! I am so happy to have found my new dog sitter and a friend! :)”

The meet and greet went well and we finalized our booking and she sent pictures every day that made me feel reassured. She was attentive to all his needs and our needs and even picked him up and dropped him off. I would definitely use her services again. I have used Rover about four times in this was easily our best experience.”

About: Charlie sounds like an absolute legend 🐶 He is a 70-pound goldendoodle who is basically the perfect combo of big, goofy, and lovable. Charlie has that shaggy, teddy-bear look that makes people smile before he even does anything. At that size, he’s big enough to think he’s a guard dog… but let’s be honest—he’s more likely guarding snacks and personal space on the couch. Charlie’s the kind of dog who: • Leans his full 70 pounds into you like he’s “just saying hi” • Acts shocked every single time he sees his reflection • Knows exactly when food is involved, even if it’s three rooms away • Somehow takes up the entire couch while still insisting he’s a lap dog Charlie usually has that perfect mix of friendly, smart, and slightly dramatic. He’s great with kids, loves attention from literally everyone, and has mastered the art of looking deeply offended when it’s time for a bath or grooming. Charlie is not just a dog—he’s a full-time family member, part-time comedian, and professional heart-stealer. • I treat every dog like my own. Your dog isn’t just a booking on my calendar—they get genuine care, attention, and affection. • Clear, consistent communication. I send regular updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your dog is doing. • Reliability you can trust. I show up on time, follow instructions closely, and keep routines consistent. • Patient and attentive. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. • Safe, calm environment. Your dog will be cared for in a clean, secure, and stress-free space. • Experience with different personalities. From energetic pups to laid-back seniors, I adjust my care to fit the dog. Teaching gives me a consistent schedule, which allows me to provide reliable, well-timed care for pets. With flexibility in the afternoons, evenings, weekends, and school breaks, I’m able to give pets focused attention and stick closely to their routines. I provide attentive, routine-based care tailored to each pet’s needs. I take time to learn their feeding schedule, walking routine, energy level, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home: Pets are welcomed into a calm, clean, and safe environment. I maintain their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest. Dogs receive plenty of exercise, attention, and affection throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. I supervise interactions closely and make sure pets always feel safe and relaxed. In a client’s home: I respect your space and follow your pet’s established routine exactly. I provide walks, feeding, playtime, medication (if needed), and bathroom breaks as instructed. I also make sure your home is left tidy and secure. Regular updates, photos, and notes are sent so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is always the same—keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while giving owners complete peace of mind.

“Daphne cared for my dog overnight. He a is very active Belgian Malinois. She was aware of the malinois personality & breed specific needs. It helped me also in choosing care for my dog that she listened to his specific needs & she is a dog trainer. She is very accommodating. I will be boarding him again in the future.”
