“Rachel and Ivan took great care of Luna! We were regularly updated with photos and info regarding Luna’s stay, and she clearly had a great time there. She will definitely be going back for future home stays.”
“Peter did an amazing job! He sent pictures and took my pup on multiple walks! He was super flexible on pickup and drop off times too! We will be using him again for sure!”
“Amazing people. Amazing family. My dog has major separation anxiety and they made her feel so comfortable. She was with them for 3.5 days and Kimberly & Jeremy sent updates and photos everyday which eased my worry mind. I thought they would text me and say come pick her up because she's too anxious, but no, she would just inform me that my dog is playing with toys, cuddling with her daughter, running around with their three other amazing little dogs and just settling down. You know they're good people when you feel bad for picking your dog up because they probably had more fun with them. 101% would recommend!”
“Lisa is the bees knees!!! She was so communicative and accommodating. I was nervous but in a pinch and needed to put my trust in someone to watch a very special member of my family. She exceeded any and all expectations I could have had. She was personable and friendly to me too. What an absolute pleasure. Thank you Lisa!!!!!”
“Angela is absolutely amazing. We have a very high energy big goofy dog and she was great with him. Lots of room for him to run. The pictures that she sent made my heart warm. I will ask her again in a heartbeat!”
“Amanda took excellent care of our Pinky. She cared for her as if she were her own dog. Amanda has a friendly dog who played with Pinky and was great company for her. Amanda has a fenced in yard which allowed Pinky to play outside and enjoy the foot of snow! Amanda administered medicines to Pinky as directed and informed us daily of Pinky’s dietary intake, her general health and happiness as well as sending us daily photos. We were able to enjoy our overseas vacation with no worries since Amanda was taking such excellent care of Pinky. We will definitely ask Amanda to take care of our Pinky in the future. Thank you for being you, Amanda!”
“Cheyenne was great to work with. We had a meet and greet a few days before she watched our fur babies. She sent pictures to show us how they were doing. We will definitely use her again.”
“Cheryl watched my pup, Isla overnight and it was a wonderful experience for both Isla and me! Cheryl made the stay so welcoming and comfortable for Isla! She was so willing to do whatever she could to make Isla comfortable and happy! We will definitely be using Cheryl again in the future and definitely recommend her! Thank you Cheryl! ❤️”
“Our little guy had a great time with Caroline. He was happy and healthy when we picked him up. She was also very responsive and able to accommodate a last minute booking.”
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs, and then when I was able to I had two large breeds of my own for many years. Currently, we have a 2-yr old Bernese mountain dog and an older cat at home. I’m a teacher with a very open availability during summer and would love to fill it with taking care of your dogs - any breed but happy to provide confidence for high energy larger breeds. I’m a full-time teacher, so if you’re booking during the summer my availability is pretty widely open to meet your pets needs. If it’s during the school year, the weekends are there for loving your pet. I love to walk and exercise and am happy to take your dog for long walks as needed. Alternatively if they’re at my house, they can play with our Bernese Mountain Dog in the backyard for endless hours! Our yard is fenced in and the gates are always locked.
“Our dogs had a blast with Lisa- they had plenty of room to roam and were clearly given great attention and love during their stay, looking happy in the photo updates she sent and good and tired when we picked them up, ready to nap the whole way home. We will definitely reach out again when we’re in the area if needing a pet sitter!”
“GusGus definitely gives Coleen 5 stars, and so do I! Our little rescue guy spent 4 days with Coleen and her husband and was happy and relaxed the entire time. He got lots of cuddles, walks and care. It was our first time with Coleen and surely will not be the last. The communication was clear, the atmosphere warm and friendly and the loving care was evident.”
“Perfect in every aspect. I can tell Ghost really enjoyed himself and I was scared he wouldn't want to come back home from all the fun he was having haha. Great service and look forward to booking them again in the future. Thank you very much! Chris”

Communication was prompt, and while I was on my trip, she sent the sweetest pictures/videos and updates. Overall, Noodles had a great time and received top-tier care. I would definitely recommend Heather when you need a sitter for your fur baby.”
“Stephanie and Scott took terrific care of our senior pup, Luna. They were loving caregivers and clearly did all they could to make Luna comfortable and to love on and play with her.

“Allison did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Lucy. She and Dave have a large fenced-in yard and took Lucy on several walks. She was excellent at communicating, including sending photos and videos. Will definitely hVd her board Lucy again!”

We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have had a better experience. [Sitter’s name] was so friendly and thoughtful with my cat. She sent lots of updates with videos, pictures, and texts that really put me at ease. You could tell she genuinely cared and gave extra love and playtime. She was super helpful and made the whole process easy for me as a first-time user. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a great sitter!”
“Paigg is the best and always is our hero when we need help. She is the #1 pet sitter in all of Traverse City Area. As a local business owner ourselves, service like this exactly what is needed these days.”
“Melissa was a joy to have as a sitter for our shy kitty! (I’m only sad that he wasn’t more social!). She is a great communicator, very conscientious, consistent, and patient. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others or to request a rebook in the future. Thank you so much, Melissa!”
“Marlana was great with our dog! They went for long walks and Marlana let me know how Poppy did. On time, friendly and worked around our wacky schedule, would definitely hire Marlana again!”

She was also very flexible when our schedule changed, which we really appreciated. I will definitely book with Monika again in the future and highly recommend her to others!”

“Took on my absolute last minute booking with a level head, introduced my kitten to her other cats so that soon they were nice and chummy. I can tell Limbo was well taken care of. Thanks so much!”
“Asia did a fantastic job! Aengus was taken care of with a lot of love and care. I received text and pictures every morning and every evening I always knew that he was happy and enjoying his time with Asia. She followed all instructions to the T and my house was in perfect condition when I came home. She even did her own sheets, which I did not expect her to do. I would be very happy to employ her services again I recommend her highly!”
About: Hi there! I've always had a pet in the house, from fish and hamsters to dogs and cats. I'm comfortable with breeds of all sizes (German Shepherds are my favorite!). I've cared for sick and aging pets before, and follow vet instructions to a T. In the past I've helped a family friend's labradoodle learn to walk appropriately on a leash after attending puppy school with my own dog. I recently started a full-time job with typical office hours, so I'm generally available in the evenings during the week and all day Saturdays. I'm always willing to work with pet parents to make sure that their pet is cared for and will adjust my schedule to fit them in when possible! I'm a morning person, so if your pup likes early walks, I'm your gal! I always inform pet parents as early as possible if my schedule changes and will work with them to ensure their pet is safe and healthy. I always follow pet parent instructions and advice on caring for their pet. I understand that all fur babies have different needs, preferences, and personalities, and work to adapt my approach to pet care to make them feel happy and comfortable.

About: I am a long-time lover of animals, and have raised a family of humans, along with a family of pets- large dogs, small dogs, birds, hamsters, mice and turtles. I am currently without a pet, so I care for my backyard squirrels, birds, and chipmunks. I am retired with lots of time, energy, and love to care for your dear pet. I love to walk and hike, live close to the TART trail, and would enjoy the company of a furry friend. Walking trails are just outside my door, and I have space for crates and your furry friend's toys or their own special bed and blanket if preferred for their care and comfort.
“Lily had doggy day care with Daniel & she loved it! Daniel was a great communicator, easy to set up Lily’s stay & very friendly at drop off & pick up. I felt comfortable leaving Lily in his care. I would recommend Daniel to anyone looking to have their pet boarded or for doggie daycare 🐾 ❤️”

She was flexible on timing and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Strongly recommend working with Angela if your camping or stay in in the Empire area.”

“Lindsey was absolutely amazing. I had a suprise visit from my family on a friday evening and wanted to bring them into Traverse City for the day, Lindsey responded first thing in the morning and was very accomadating. She was kind, asked about our pup, and made sure we felt so comfortable all while giving us updates throughout the day. I will absolutely be using her more as time goes on. If you have a pup who needs services like this please go see Lindsey, she will not disappoint.”
“We hired Brooklyn for 2 days of doggy daycare as we were camping in the area and wanted to do some long distance trails that our senior pup can no longer manage. Brooklyn was quick to communicate and was extremely responsive from the moment we inquired about her watching our dog. She did a wonderful job, sent us photos and when we picked up our dog she was busy playing with Brooklyn that she didn't even want to come home with us. Brooklyn was great and we appreciate her helping us out so we could enjoy all the wonderful trails in the area. If Brooklyn is still in the area when we come to the area next year I will make sure to check with Brooklyn first to see if she's available for watching our dog!”

“Rebekah was so great to our crazy dogs when we were visiting town for the weekend. She did a meet and greet even though we would only have one visitor her.

“We are so pleased with Melissa's care and communication. She was prompt, friendly, and sent plenty of pictures, updates and info about our little furry guy while we were gone. She was a pleasure to work with!”
About: Hi, I’m Aubrey 👋 I offer calm, attentive, in-home pet care designed to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while you’re away. I specialize in multi-pet households and have a natural ability with animals who need a little extra patience—whether that’s senior dogs, shy personalities, or pets who are used to a slower, more grounded environment. • 10+ years of experience with a wide range of temperaments • Especially attuned to anxious, sensitive, or senior pets • Experienced with multi-pet homes and complex routines • Respectful, clean, and mindful in clients’ homes • Consistent updates so you always feel connected and reassured 📸 I’m not just here to “watch” your pets—I create a steady, comforting presence so their routine and emotional world stay intact. Pet care is a central part of my daily life, and I intentionally keep my schedule spacious so I can be fully present with the pets in my care. I prioritize consistency, calm routines, and quality time—especially for pets who thrive on familiarity and one-on-one attention. All bookings, communication, and payments are handled through Rover for ease and peace of mind 🐾 Your pet’s emotional and physical safety are my top priorities. I’m especially mindful with: • Senior pets who need slower pacing or extra care • Shy or anxious animals who take time to warm up • Maintaining your pet’s exact routine, environment, and comfort cues I approach each home with deep respect—keeping things clean, calm, and consistent so your pet feels secure and your space is cared for.
“Paigg was easy to engage with and communicative throughout during the two weeks we were out of town and needed extra help. We had three dogs and all seemed happy and well cared for. Thank you paigg!”
“Olivia has been great with my working line German Shepherd. He’s very high energy and can be a handful sometimes, but she handles him with patience and confidence. He loves his walks with her! Highly recommend :)”
“Megan walked my dog a couple days ago week while I was at work during the school year and it was the biggest help! She is super flexible and understanding when schedules changed. Loved having the peace of mind knowing Lief was taken care of on my long work days. Would absolutely recommend Megan! :)”
“Grace has been great with my almost 6 month old puppy Scout! She makes sure he gets the playtime he needs in the middle of the day. Grace is very trustworthy and would recommend her for watching your furry animals!”
“Tabitha is been walking my 85 year old mother's labradoodle for about a month. Tabitha has been very kind to my mother and has taken great care of Cocoa. I always get updates about their walks and what business Cocoa has done. Tabitha has also been very dependable through the sub-zero weather we have had this winter. She always shows up with a smile and is happy to be there.”
About: Cat person for life. I currently have four, as well as an Australian shepherd. I used to travel a lot for work, so I understand how stressful it can be making sure the four legged babies have everything they need when away. I’m here to help any way I can, whether it’s giving a medication or helping with the potty stuff! I recently left a demanding corporate job and currently am very flexible - morning, evening, during the week or on the weekend! **Due to several issues with owners not being on time for drop off or pick up, I want to add that when accepting a booking, the time is very important as well as the day as other appointments may be on my schedule that day. It is very important that the drop off and pick up times selected are accurate for smooth transitions.** I would care for the pet as instructed by the owner. I understand all animals have their own personality and preferences and their owners know best. I also want the owners to feel comfortable knowing their pet is in good hands while they are away!
About: I am a 39 year old animal lover who works in the service industry with a flexible schedule and adventurous lifestyle. My dog, Kiteboarding and camping are my top 3 passions in life. I volunteer for the rescue I got my dogs from and walk many of them on Monday's. Serving is great but doesn't always pay the bills and I have several friends who have loved sitting through rover, and I love dogs and cats so it seemed like a no brainer. I hope to meet you and your furry companions soon! Currently I am working two jobs. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I am available before 10am and after 6pm. Thursday through Sundays my schedule is different every week unfortunately.. but I typically have availability at some point, it just varies. As of right now I have availability on Mondays all day for pets as I'm off of both jobs. I can care for your baby however you feel most comfortable and don't mind special requests or requirements, whatever keeps them safe and happy! I have experience with all sizes, breeds, backgrounds and ages of dogs.
About: Hi I'm Patience! Dogs and other animals have been a part of my life since childhood. I grew up with no less than three dogs around at all times. I spent much of my youth as a a dog walker for the neighborhood and have since been a dog, cat, snake and rat owner myself. I have a great handle and experience with taking care of all sizes of dogs and feel confident with helping in keeping up with training your dog. I feel confident to support senior docs as well as puppies and feel really great about taking care of cats as well. I hope to share nurturing and love with your pets soon! I am currently very open with my schedule, I am exploring new areas and getting to know the town and will be working from home mostly so lots of time to be around with your sweet animal. I care for your animals the way I would care for my own, this looks like making sure they are getting fed at their usual feeding times, getting walked, getting pets and going outside to take care of business as much as they need. As for cats, same goes, but probably no walks unless you've got an adventure kitty. I also will make sure to clean up after them if they get muddy paws or have an accident.

“Rachel is the best Rover I’ve ever had! She goes above and beyond for your loved ones, and is so sweet to work with! I feel confident that my babies are well loved and cared for when she visits and walks them ?”
About: I’ve been a dog person my whole life, but I love all sorts of animals! Whatever energy your dog has, I’ll be sure to match theirs! I have a ton of flexibility and will be home for the next few months. I will be available most weekends and especially during the weekdays. The best time for me is early mornings and afternoons. I’ve had all sorts of dogs over the 14 years of being a pet owner. I’ve had several rescues, small and medium sized dogs, and have adopted dogs from the ages ranging from only a couple of months old, to 5 years old. I understand that every dog is different, and by owning rescues that were abandoned or were mistreated, I learned that their diets, playing style, and temperaments are different. Every dog deserves to be given the best love and attention, so I’ll make sure they have lots of playing and great walks! I used to compete in cross country in college, so there’s no walk that is too long for me!
“Katie was great! She was prompt, communicative and my dog loved her. I was pleased with the distance she put in with my dog in a half hour time slot. I will definitely use her again!!!”

“First time finding Bob on Rover and it’s a great thing we did. He did an outstanding job taking care of our sweet Daphne, treating her like one of his own. We were more than comfortable leaving her in his care. He kept us up to date with pictures and was very quick to respond. We loved Bob and his sweet dog, Parker and we would highly recommend Bob.”
About: I started my pet care journey as a dog walker at age 9, and have found great joy in pet sitting over the years. I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, ages and personalities, and now specialize in in-home boarding where your pets are treated like part of our family. My home offers fenced acreage for safe, supervised running and play, along with structured walks and trail runs for those who need a little extra. After playtime, there’s always a warm bed, or a cozy spot on the couch, waiting for naps and snuggles. With degrees in Wildlife Biology and Zoology, I bring not only a deep love for animals but also a professional understanding of their behavior, needs, and well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and adventurous or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I split my regular work schedule with 3 wfh days each week. We are an early rising family who enjoy spending time on our homestead. We have several resident pets on the farm: 20 sheep, 2 mini donkeys, chickens and one beloved mutt. Our regular routine involves a 1 mi walk in the am and pm with lots of other opportunities throughout the day for supervised fresh air or playtime in one of our fenced 1 acre pastures. Safe and secure, a ball lovers paradise! I’m comfortable treating your pet as my own with specialized treatment or care as needed. We have 2 respectful preteen boys in the household so kid friendly dogs are an absolute must.
