“Elizabeth was wonderful! She deserves an award for handling my crazy, high energy Labrador. Somehow she kept up with his endless energy & chaos. I got constant pictures and videos giving me a peace of mind while i was gone. Duck came home happy and tired. Can’t thank her enough for watching him!”
“Julie and Joe were fantastic with my Snoopy. Snoopy had a anxiety problem and they were so warm and taken great care of dog. They sent pictures and our family loved to see that he is doing great and having fun at their house. I highly recommend them and will book again with them!”
“The best review I can give is that I think my dog was depressed to be home because he missed Kathy and her husband so much!! Chewy loved being there,I loved getting the pictures to start my day. Best experience ever for me and my pup!!”
“Luke and his family went above and beyond caring for our Yogi. They have a large fenced in backyard and a host of other animal friends that Yogi fell in love with. Our Yogi has a tendency to pee on himself vs the ground and they bathed him before pickup. My toddler wouldn’t stop asking us to smell the dog on the way home. Thank you Luke and family! We will use you every time we need to head West to Wisconsin.”
“Beth and Tracy were absolutely wonderful with Duke. Beth communicated often and took lots of pictures. They took wonderful care of our pup, which made us feel really good and allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation.”
“Ava did a great job with Finn. He had a fun time playing with her Finn and Honey. He also learned some new things, now I just need to learn them too! I definitely plan to board my Finn there again and continue working with Ava on Finn and my training.”
“Anna was great! She kept us very up to date in the dogs and how they were settling in and behaving the whole stay! I could tell that she and her family really loved and cared for the dogs. I highly recommend Anna to watch your pets!”
“Sydney was amazing! You can tell as soon as you walk through her door that her heart belongs to animals. I was so nervous leaving my old man with a stranger for the first time. But I got updates daily. He got to go on walks and get lots of love and attention. I picked him up and he was brushed and smiling. I am so happy with Sydney's service.”
“My dog loves staying with Jenai & Sean so much so he wines now when we get close to their home. He comes back all smiles & tired from playing. Such a wonderful experience each time I don’t use anyone else. I highly recommend them!”

I double-check all gates, doors, and leashes, and I strictly follow your specific care instructions to maintain a secure, stress-free environment for your furry best friend.
“Jamie was great with our high energy needs dog, Maggie. She’s a border collie/blue heeler mix that is a good dog, but only if she’s exercised her body (and mind) enough. We loved having picture updates over our long weekend away. And by the second night I knew everything would be okay and that Jamie had the compassion and care needed for a dog like Maggie. We’re SO happy to have found Jamie and will definitely be requesting her services again!!”
“Savannah was great! She sent me pictures and daily updates. Our little guy adjusted well to playing with other puppies and loved their hospitality. Definitely will rebook in the future. Thanks again for loving on Chase and setting my nerves aside.”
“Our dog just stayed 2 nights with Jaisree. I felt so comfortable leaving our girl with her. She has a beautiful home and very private yard. We would definitely leave our dog with her again. She sent us plenty of pictures and updates and truly seemed to enjoy her time with our girl. Thank you Jaisree!”

“Sarah was wonderful from start to finish! She watched my GSD overnight on NYE and was wonderful with communication leading up to and then while he was with her. I received so many pictures and videos of him, it was very appreciated and put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her! My dog was whooped when he came home from having fun playing with her dogs. He slept the whole rest of the day and we LOVE a sleepy german shepherd lol”

“Very reliable sitter and easy to get a hold of! I’m very picky with pet sitters and I would recommend Mckensi to anyone! I was worried about leaving my cat and Mckensi alleviated a lot of stress!”
“I was very confident leaving Pretty Kitty in Brenna's care. Brenna did a great job with my cat. Pretty Kitty was never left for a long time and never over night. Brenna sent us pictures of Pretty Kitty and updates of her activities. I recommend Brenna as a very caring person that shows how much she loves animals. I will have her again as my sitter. Judy W”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with our three kitties! She did everything as expected and then some. She was easy to communicate with and would send us daily photos of them eating, playing, or rolling around. I plan on reaching out to Jessica in the future when we need someone to look after our kitties again.”
“Our young cat was well cared for by Casey! He had a designated safe space he could use at her house when needed, though he wasn’t shy and made himself right at home. She was very attentive to any needs he had and made sure to send pictures, which our family loved seeing. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Casey again!”
“Vanessa was GREAT!! She went far and above our expectations. You would be hard pressed to find a better Rover. Abby loved her and Vanessa went out pf her way to make sure we knew what was happening with Abby at all times.”
“Camryn responded immediately and came out to meet my doggies beforehand. The dogs like her! She came out with her little one, but the dogs weren't quite sure about the baby carrier with the fan on it :). They were really curious though. Camryn took good care of my fur-babies, fed them and made sure they went potty before she left. I will contact her again.”
“We felt so comfortable with Christy and her daughter dropping in on our cats! They were so well loved during our week away and even gave extra attention to our one cat who needs to be kept separate from the other. Communication was wonderful and she even gave some yummy food recommendations for our trip. She is wonderful and we would have her back in a heartbeat!”
About: I have grown up surrounded by animals. I started taking care of pets on my own at the age of seven, and I’ve loved doing it ever since. I currently have two rescues of my own, and have experience in senior care. I currently work from home and have an open schedule. I have availability for a fixed schedule or just whenever you need the extra help. I know how important routine is in a pets life, whatever directions are given will be followed. And they will get plenty of cuddles and playtime.
About: Growing up, my grandpa got me a black and white kitten that I named Cookie who lived on my grandpa's property. She was an outdoor cat who just wanted to play and/or be left alone, but I quickly fell in love with her untameability and fleeting moments of sweetness. I quickly learned at a young age that each and every cat is very unique with a strong personality, which makes them so lovable and fun to live with! Despite never having a cat/kitten of my own in my house (my sister is allergic), I frequently make time to visit friends with cats and/or the Catmosphere in Terre Haute. Your cat will receive the best care regardnless of age, disability, emotional capacity, and bonding ability. Whatever your cat needs, I will do my absolute best to keep your cat as happy as can be!
“Grace is absolutely amazing with our cats. They perk up when they hear her arriving and are thrilled to receive brushes, pets, and playtime with her. She always sends great pictures of the cats and I know they are in good hands whenever we're away.”
“Farrell came and helped take Jaxon out and care for him while I was away and she did a fantastic job! Great at communicating, sharing photos and updates. 100% would book her again!”
About: I know cats are very special creatures where “pet me” can go many different ways. Whether your cat likes to roll solo or is feral like its great ancestors or maybe could pass as a small dog, you can count on me to be there for your cat(s) 😊. Litter box cleaning will be kept up daily to stay fresh and clean. I have experience in giving cats SQ fluids as well as administering topical and oral medications. If your cat has any other specific needs or concerns, I am delighted to help meet their needs. 😊
About: I am available to let your dog get the attention and exercise it needs while you are away. I am available to make drop in visits to feed, walk, and spend time with your pups. I grew up with dogs and I've been a passionate dog lover and owner for 20+ years. Currently I have a high energy chocolate lab and Husky Corgi mix, which means I have the energy to get our high energy fur friends the exercise they need on a regular basis. I have personal experience (and the patience it takes) with training dogs the basics. I used the clicker training method with my lab. I'm a photographer and stay at home mom looking to fill in my time with fur friends. Contact me with any questions, I would be happy to help you and your fur-babies out. I am currently a stay at home mom and part time photographer so I wil have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. I am available to travel to your home and care for your furry friends. I am able to let them out, play with them and feed them.
About: I’ve always believed pets are part of the family, and that’s exactly how I care for them. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just some company while you’re away, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Reliable, attentive, and genuinely animal-obsessed. My schedule is highly flexible for dog sitting, visits, and walks. Weekdays, weekends, mornings, evenings- I’ll work around what’s best for you and your pup! In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely; feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles, keeping them comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible in their familiar environment.
“I used Rod again for my pugs! They LOVE him. I scheduled him last minute and he immediately responded and made me feel good — once again—to leave my babies with him. He stayed longer than he needed to and i felt so comfortable being away.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Schoolcraft
“Julie and her husband, Joe, took good care of Obi. It was his first time staying with them. Julie sent me a picture and video of Obi having a good time. Their dog Barron was not home to play with, but I think they played with Obi and gave him lots of attention.”
“Ellie did a fantastic job watching my pup and was a pleasure to work with! She made sure Ophie’s needs were met and provided a great environment for her to get her energy out. I got plenty of updates during her stay, and she came home relaxed and happy. I highly recommend Ellie’s services!!”
About: We had a small dog when our children were out of high school and our world revolved around him. We miss him a lot since he crossed the rainbow bridge but I am lucky to be a grandma to 5 dogs—a Saint Bernard, a chihuahua mix, 2 terrier mixes and a German Shepherd mix. All rescue dogs with some quirky personality traits that make them a challenge and fun. I have also cared for my sister’s senior Maltese and a neighbor’s senior Boxer. Dogs are my favorite animal and I just love spending time with them! I recently retired from being a paraprofessional at a local school so I have a pretty flexible schedule. My husband works on Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays so those days I am much more available but he is flexible if I’m working or have something scheduled. We live out in the country and have a fenced in yard so dogs can play and have some fun time running free. Our neighborhood is safe to walk dogs (we used to walk our little guy around the block daily—1 1/4 miles) and there are also 2 parks close by that we could walk if they seem bored with the block.
“This was our first time using a service to find someone to care for our dog. Jaisree allowed me to meet with her before our drop off date to make sure our dog would be a good fit for her. I really appreciated Jaisree’s warmth and desire to understand how to best care for Blue. She did a great job and I will book with her again.”

“Rebecca took great care of my dog during a long daytrip for work. She sent photos of him throughout the day and he really seemed to enjoy his day hanging out with her. Ozzy gives his stay five stars!”
“Mckensi was a great sitter for my puppy! She was super flexible and easy to communicate with. My dog seemed to love her time there and based on how tired she was after her stay, I know she was well cared for and had plenty of playtime throughout the day. I will definitely use Mckensi for daycare again!”

About: I grew up on and farm and I’ve had animals my whole life. I believe animals make the best company. As of right now I only have a grand puppy. I recently lost my mini schnauzer she was 17 so I may be adding a new member to our family soon. I would like to spend sometime with your animals and spoil them. I live inKalamazoo in a pet friendly condo complex with not only an extensive yard but with walking trails near by. I’m very comfortable with opening my home to Your pet and making them feel like they belong. I already have plenty of toys and things to keep them busy. I regularly babysit my grand puppy who is use to having other dogs around. I would really enjoy getting to know you and your pet, hope to accommodate you soon. Thank you Trina

“Heather was wonderful with my pup. She was very patient and understanding with a new doggie in her beautiful home. She was also very flexible and responsive. Her pets are also very welcoming and easily welcomed my dog Fiona into their pack. I had a stress free day thanks to Heather!”
“Melissa and Ashton have been amazing with my new pup!! We've only been going the a few weeks and are quickly becoming regulars. They are the most caring, dedicated people I have met so far on Rover! I highly suggest using them for your pet needs!”
About: I've had a dog since I was 3 and currently have my own 2 year old doggo that I got in Jan 2022. Neighbors and friends rely on me to pet sit for them. I have experience with all sized dogs. I also has experience with cat sitting as well! Me and my roommates currently foster cats. I’m a part-time student at WMU. I class 12-3 on Wednesdays, but other than that I’m pretty much free. I do have a dog of my own and need to care for him as well. I'm willing to do anything the pet needs whether that be making sure the animal take needed meds, changing wound dressings, or running around a dog park. I'm also very patient with animals!
About: I have had dogs in my life for 57 years. I have had 2 miniature poodles and 2 standard poodles. I have trained them all. I currently do door dash part-time. I have plenty of time to take care of your loved pet. I have time to walk your dog, play with your dog and even train your dog if you’d like. I have a nice yard, and I live in a beautiful modular home park. We have a dog park here for your dog to play.
About: We have a good sized house which we share with our sweet rescue dog, Penelope, 2 kittens, Lilo and Stitch and our almost 2 year old daughter. I offer dog walking, sitting, overnight, part day hang outs and even training! We live near several parks that are dog friendly which we frequent regularly. I've always lived with dogs but began training the family and neighbor's dogs around the age of 10. I want to make note that I understand it is a big responsibility to care for someone else's fur child and that I take it very seriously. If you have any questions, please feel free to text, or email me anytime. I am home each day with my young daughter who is great with animals but in case you prefer she stay separate, we have gates and even a heated barn if full separation is needed. Our old girl has free rein of the house, even our kitties get outside every once in a while but we have the ability to set up a small fenced in area or a zip line style tether, and of course walks as needed. We love to snuggle all furry friends but also know some prefer their space.
“Heidi is super friendly and flexible. Her home was very close to downtown KZoo where we were staying. She took cute photos and a video of our dog while we were away. Also her price was very reasonable.”
“Our dog is an hour into her first time ever being with a dogsitter. Anna is so amazing! She sent me pics right away and said that they already love Porsha. Then she offered to give her a bath. I am blown away.”

“I'm so glad Mckensi was able to walk my dogs today! My 2 pups are very different and I don't know many who can handle the puppy's...exuberance...but Mckensi took it all in stride when she met them pre-walk, and was able to handle walking them both together! (Next time I'll leave you a map of suggested routes, so you get a more varied walk ?)”
About: We had a dog the majority of my life growing up. I raised a Guide Dog puppy, a year-long commitment training obedience, socialization and manners (243 page training manual), and she went on to guide. I have put a lot of time into learning how to train and care for dogs, as well as learning to recognize over a hundred dog breeds. I currently work part-time, from 1:30 to 5:30 every day, although that is very flexible. I can't have a dog where I live, and I only have a bike as transportation, so both are limiting. Although I cant have them in my home, I'm happy to walk, train, and/or socialize your pup in your home or out around your neighborhood, using whatever commands and habits you have with your dog already.
About: I’m the type of girl who walks up to you and asks if I can pet your dog! They bring so much joy to my life❤️ When I lived with my parents, I had the opportunity to grow up with a Whippet for the past 6 years! She’s 11 years old now, and she is just the sweetest little girl ever. She’s also a speed demon and still can catch squirrels and/or bunnies making me a very avid potty watcher;) Since I’m still in school and working part-time, I know that being a dog sitter would be a wonderful addition to my life! I’m more than willing to spend time with your dog regardless of age, disability, emotional capacity, and bonding ability! With my schedule right now, I am very accommodating to you and your dog’s needs. Know that ensuring your dog to my care not only promises the love and care that your pet needs, but also ensures that love and care to me as well! That’s how much I love dogs. Looking forward to hearing from you and meeting your furry loved one(s)! As a part-time assistant coach and online grad student, I have a flexible schedule that lets me give your dog consistent attention, comfort, and care. Whatever you need, I can make it work with my schedule! Even though I don’t have dogs of my own at home right now, I’m able to create a peaceful, safe, and welcoming environment just for yours. My space stays clean, calm, and free of distractions, which helps pets settle in quickly and feel secure. I follow your routines closely—from feeding and walks to comfort items and cues—so your pet feels consistency and familiarity even in a new place. I’m big on safety and trust: clear communication, careful supervision, and a home set up with your pet’s well-being in mind. Because I don’t have other animals here, your pet gets my full, focused attention and lots of one-on-one care. My goal is always to make your pet feel understood, safe, and genuinely loved while you’re away.
About: I have had pets my whole life and love to spend time and play with all animals. I have been dog and cat sitting for 8 years for coworkers and friends. I have a 5 year old Catahoula Hound mix that I adopted from the SPCA! When I house sit he does need to come with me. He has never had issues with other dogs or cats. I am a medical assistant during the week for Bronson and would love to spend time with animals on the weekends or after work playing or going for walks. I make a point to let the animal smell and come to me. It is their environment and they don't know me yet! Once they are comfortable I love to get on the ground and play.

I am currently available on weekends, but I can review your specific needs. I will take your pet for walks, play with them, and care for them with affection.

About: I have had pets of many kinds almost my entire life and many friends have entrusted me with the care of their pets while away. My friend who ran a successful rescue trusts me with her medically complex rescues. I follow whatever instructions are there with special attention paid to any medications that need to be given or other special details. I'm a freelancer that spends too much time sitting while I work. I'm very excited to add more walks into my life and a bit more out of the house time taking care of your furry friends when you need! In your home I will do everything in my power to take good care of your four legged friend. Whether that means medicating them at the right times, chilling on the couch for a bit of snuggling, or playing fetch in the backyard (or living room) until the exciteable animal is a little more chill from getting energy out.
About: Hi! I am a second year college student, looking for an extra side hustle! I absolutely adore dogs, I have two, and one in heaven. I am just in school and work as a server on the side, so my schedule is slightly inconsistent but I have some free time every single day no matter what. I can also adjust hours at the restaurant to fit clients needs! I live at home right now, which is also quite lonely, so I wouldn’t mind taking care of some cute fur babies in my extra time!!! I only have one in person class, 9-11 on mondays! I work 3-6 days a week at the restaurant, varying from morning shifts to night- however I am totally okay adjusting my availability for the next week as long as I know the pet sitting schedule!! My schedule is pretty flexible! I have two dogs and one cat. We have an electric fence, but our dogs are pretty good and honestly don’t really need it. I get them tons of exercise everyday (at least one walk and one dog park visit) and I love them more than anything!
About: I have experience in working in a vet clinic and on a local farm of large animals. I have been trained to minister care for all cats/dogs of all breeds/sizes. If your pet has any health issues such as diabetes or has hit senior years, no worries! New puppy paws running around? Glad to be of assistance to help them learn better manners and play til the nap! I am a full time Veterinary Nursing clinical student at Michigan State University! My schedule is a typical “8-5” job internship and have an 1 hr break during that time. I am very flexible and can provide care for your pets around my schedule. I’m free on the weekends as well. Since I am not able to keep your pets in my home due to space, I will treat your home with all respect. If you have places and boundaries that are set, they will be followed accordingly. If your pet or myself makes a mess, it will be cleaned up immediately! I have a pet cleaner machine and products to get pet stains out in a jiffy!

About: I have been pet sitting since I was in the 3rd grade. It's the best job in the world!! Animals are so innocent and beautiful with true hearts. I will not only take care of your pup, but they'll get spoiled with affection as well! My dogs, Charlie and Jack, love everyone and love to play in our securely fenced in yard. We LOVE walks! I can easily walk at least 6-7 miles a day so your high energy pup will have lots of exercise! I'm a stay at home mom of and 8 year old and 14 year old. My 2 pups are super happy boys and my world pretty much revolves around them lol I understand that my rates may be higher than a boarding kennel, but your pup gets so much more attention, walks and freedom to explore our home and large yard with lots of new smells for them! Allowed on furniture and beds and full house of dog lovers. I'm also good at breaking food aggression, leash training and teaching basic commands :) Animals are like family to me. Every one of them deserve to be treated with respect, patience and love. We have lots of that to go around here! When your pup is under my care, they're part of the family ❤
“Madelyn had been walking our dog during the week for the past couple of weeks and we honestly could not be happier!! She communicates beforehand to verify the schedule each week. She is consistent - picks up our dog for a walk same time each day! She provides us with pictures and updates on how the walk went. Our dog Emma can be a little extra (German Shepherd energy) and Madelyn is great with her! We are so thankful we found Madelyn!”

“Elizabeth was wonderful! She deserves an award for handling my crazy, high energy Labrador. Somehow she kept up with his endless energy & chaos. I got constant pictures and videos giving me a peace of mind while i was gone. Duck came home happy and tired. Can’t thank her enough for watching him!”
“Julie and Joe were fantastic with my Snoopy. Snoopy had a anxiety problem and they were so warm and taken great care of dog. They sent pictures and our family loved to see that he is doing great and having fun at their house. I highly recommend them and will book again with them!”
“Luke and his family went above and beyond caring for our Yogi. They have a large fenced in backyard and a host of other animal friends that Yogi fell in love with. Our Yogi has a tendency to pee on himself vs the ground and they bathed him before pickup. My toddler wouldn’t stop asking us to smell the dog on the way home. Thank you Luke and family! We will use you every time we need to head West to Wisconsin.”
“Anna was great! She kept us very up to date in the dogs and how they were settling in and behaving the whole stay! I could tell that she and her family really loved and cared for the dogs. I highly recommend Anna to watch your pets!”
“Sydney was amazing! You can tell as soon as you walk through her door that her heart belongs to animals. I was so nervous leaving my old man with a stranger for the first time. But I got updates daily. He got to go on walks and get lots of love and attention. I picked him up and he was brushed and smiling. I am so happy with Sydney's service.”
“My dog loves staying with Jenai & Sean so much so he wines now when we get close to their home. He comes back all smiles & tired from playing. Such a wonderful experience each time I don’t use anyone else. I highly recommend them!”

“Jamie was great with our high energy needs dog, Maggie. She’s a border collie/blue heeler mix that is a good dog, but only if she’s exercised her body (and mind) enough. We loved having picture updates over our long weekend away. And by the second night I knew everything would be okay and that Jamie had the compassion and care needed for a dog like Maggie. We’re SO happy to have found Jamie and will definitely be requesting her services again!!”
“Savannah was great! She sent me pictures and daily updates. Our little guy adjusted well to playing with other puppies and loved their hospitality. Definitely will rebook in the future. Thanks again for loving on Chase and setting my nerves aside.”
About: Experienced in leading dogs big and small, young and old, well-mannered and not. Waking, sitting, drop ins, day care, and training. Deep understanding of dog psychology. Open to any specific requests, flexible with pet parents. I’m currently a full time trainer and pet sitter. I have a relatively flexible schedule. You’re welcome to send me messages about dates and about your pet. I’ll do my best to help out! I live in a large house, multiple floors. I have a large backyard with a leash anchor. Your pet will be my main focus for the duration of their stay whether it be training or sitting. The same goes for sitting or training in your home as well. I adapt well to new houses, don’t mind cats as well. I like to keep clean around the house, and I do offer deep cleaning as an extra.
“Sarah was wonderful from start to finish! She watched my GSD overnight on NYE and was wonderful with communication leading up to and then while he was with her. I received so many pictures and videos of him, it was very appreciated and put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her! My dog was whooped when he came home from having fun playing with her dogs. He slept the whole rest of the day and we LOVE a sleepy german shepherd lol”
“Kristen and her family did a wonderful job with Jaz. She kept us informed daily with pictures and information. Jaz really seemed to enjoy her stay. Thank you. We will use Kristen when we go on a vacation. Jim and James”
“Alexia was very attentive to my Gracie and made sure she had a comfortable stay while we were away. Alexia sent pictures and updates on Gracie at least twice a day and followed my (many) instructions perfectly. I wish the weather would have cooperated a bit better so they could have been outside exploring more, but Alexia did make sure they got outside as often as possible. Alexia seems to have a real heart for animals and it shows!”
“Kelli did such an AMAZING job with Ellie, I was so anxious and she sent me updates multiple times! I could not have asked for anyone better to take care of my fur baby. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
About: I have grown up surrounded by animals. I started taking care of pets on my own at the age of seven, and I’ve loved doing it ever since. I currently have two rescues of my own, and have experience in senior care. I currently work from home and have an open schedule. I have availability for a fixed schedule or just whenever you need the extra help. I know how important routine is in a pets life, whatever directions are given will be followed. And they will get plenty of cuddles and playtime.
“If I could leave 10 stars I would! Clara was wonderful and Maddie was so happy playing with all her new friends. Clara’s property is gorgeous, the dogs have so much room to run and play and her cute hotel was spacious, clean and air conditioned. Thank you so much Clara! We can’t wait to see you again”
