Not only did Danielle and her family play with Callie, but even the neighborhood kiddos came to throw frisbees for her. I know she’d love to go back, and I’m happy to recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a fun time for their pup!”
About: Hi! I’m 30 years old and I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I grew up in a house full of dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—my mom always had rescues and mixed breeds, so I’m very comfortable with different temperaments and energy levels. Today, I have my own adopted 16 lb mixed-breed dog, and caring for him has only deepened my love and experience with dogs. I’m confident handling puppies and energetic dogs, and I truly enjoy walks, playtime, and giving them attention and care. For safety reasons, I prefer not to work with dogs that are overly aggressive or difficult to manage. My experience is focused entirely on dogs, so I’m not the best fit for cats or other types of pets. I’m available to foster small dogs in my apartment. I work from home and I’m able to walk him/her 3/4 times a day. I’m also available for drop-in visits between 6 AM–8 AM and anytime after 5 PM. I live in an apartment with a fenced area, which is great for safe outdoor time. I’m also happy to take your dog on walks outside around the neighborhood. I can feed, play with, and walk your dog, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away.
“Tiger was so comfortable and happy throughout his stay! We received lots of updates and communication while we were gone, and we would definitely book with Iris and Thomas again!”

“I recently boarded Oreo with Laura, and I couldn't have been more impressed with the level of care they provided. From the moment I dropped off my pup, I felt reassured by the frequent updates they sent me. It was evident that they treated my dog as if she were their own, going above and beyond to ensure her comfort and happiness. Her genuine love for animals truly shone through, and it was so heartwarming to know that my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and attentive environment for their beloved pet.”

About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, so understanding their personalities and needs comes naturally. I've walked and cared for rescue dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels at the dog shelter I've volunteered in. I've also dog sat for friends and family over the years, and have even helped care for Rover clients' dogs on behalf of friends who were sitters. These experiences have taught me how important it is to provide not just basic care, but patience, consistency, and lots of affection. I treat every dog as if they were my own, whether they love long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with good company. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I'm employed full-time, but I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and can work from home when needed to provide attentive care for your pup. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I intend to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. An added bonus is that my wife, who's an even bigger dog lover than I am and has owned dogs throughout her life, is home during the day. That means your pup will have extra companionship, supervision, and lots of affection while staying with us. On weekends, we're both home and can dedicate our full attention to keeping your dog active, happy, and comfortable. The best care comes from keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're already familiar with. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, walking routine, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and any special instructions you provide. If your dog has medications, dietary restrictions, or favorite toys and activities, I'll make sure those needs are met. I enjoy playing with dogs, going on walks, and making sure they get both physical activity and time to relax. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I'll send regular photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away.

“Eden was very personable and confident, which I greatly appreciated because I have a diabetic cat. It’s very hard to find a sitter who can do subcutaneous shots and she was completely open to learning. In addition she offered to water my flowers and take out the garbage. I highly recommend her!”

I would happily recommend Bettina to anyone that needs a friendly, responsible pet sitter that they can depend on!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all ages and personalities. I have an 11-year-old maltese of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Growing up, I also helped care for family, friends’, and neighbors’ dogs, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, energy levels, and temperaments. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy or a drop-in visit for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, or just some extra company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s unique routine and needs. I know that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, so I’ll always provide updates and photos to help you feel connected and give you peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently on a career sabbatical, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’ve been spending my summer outdoors, walking local parks, exploring nature, and enjoying time fishing. Staying active and getting outside with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a drop-in visit while you’re at work, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule whenever possible. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big responsibility, and I don’t take that lightly. During every drop-in visit, I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, administering simple care instructions, or simply providing companionship while you’re away. I’ll treat both your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would my own. Communication is important to me, so you can expect timely updates, photos, and a summary of each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’m a retired teacher and lifelong animal lover with years of hands‑on cat care experience. I currently have three cats of my own and have cared for sick or injured neighborhood cats who needed temporary care in my home. I’ve also helped with trap‑and‑release programs and understand how to support shy, cautious, or special‑needs kitties. Your cat will receive gentle attention, playtime, and a calm, loving presence. I’m comfortable with oral medications, special routines, and providing a peaceful, reassuring environment. I am Red Cross certified in Pet First Aid.

About: Hi, I’m Hope! I’ve always felt at home with animals, especially dogs. I believe every dog has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to understand what makes them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll meet them where they are with patience, kindness, and genuine care. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

I’d love the opportunity to care for your best friend and become someone you can rely on whenever you need a helping hand.
About: Hi, my name is Marguerite :) I previously worked at a Veterinary clinic and have experience with both cats and dogs. To build trust and ensure safety, I make sure every animal is comfortable before I approach them and try to pet them. I read body language very well and am okay respecting an animal's space when needed. I will make sure that your baby is cared for and gets love as often as they want it! I specifically have experience living with cats. In the past, I’ve fostered a leukemia cat that required daily medication. Later on, I housed a friend’s cat over the summer. I’m a current student at UoM, so I may have to slightly adjust normal feeding/walking/potty times because of class or the occasional meeting but can always adapt to the routine that makes your pet happy :)

“Carolina was wonderful! She is so kind. Carolina allowed Murphy and us to meet prior to our first sitting day...Murphy was able check out her house/sniff around, which made us feel more comfortable dropping him off! We were able to meet her family as well which put us completely at ease-such wonderful kids! On Murphy's first day with Carolina, she sent pics and updates of our fur-baby settling in and comfortable at her home!! When I picked him up at the end of his day, I could tell he was happy and well cared for. We will be bringing Murphy back!! We are so happy we found Carolina! She is truly lovely and so good to our 'baby'.”
“Iris & Tomas helped watch our dog while we attended a pet first aid/CPR class nearby. This was our first time having anyone watch her, so we were a little nervous. They were able to squeeze us in last minute and do a meet and greet. They sent us many photos and played with her and kept her occupied until we could pick her up. We would definitely request them again if needed!”
“Cara was great! Responded quickly to my super last minute request to watch our 5 year old Vizsla. She was very friendly and kept us updated about our baby. We would recommend Cara and would book with her again. Thanks so much.”

About: I’ve helped out family friends and neighbors with their furry friends through home visits, overnight pet sitting, and helping with getting their energy out. I have been aiding those in my community since I was in high school and continue to do so when I am back in Troy. I am currently a college student, however I find joy in helping out others when I’m in town. I’m certified in Red Cross and StarGuard life guarding and am no stranger to safety! Although my certifications apply to humans, I can apply these skills to ensuring safety of your furry friends. I have worked with family members with their own pets as therapy animals and engaged in care and listed regiments for numerous dogs I’ve watched over. I am no stranger to dogs, having had 4 dogs within my home growing up and having my fair share taking care of them. I am great with following rules and specifications given to me, especially when it comes to caring for pets; they are family and deserve to be treated as such. I work outside and I am no stranger to the sun! I am more than willing to take a pup around the block or lay with them in the sun to give them some fresh air; even in rain we can walk together and towel off later. Rain doesn’t stop the zoomies! Although I do not have as much professional experience with pets as some others, I hope to be given a chance with my life filled with pets and genuine care and compassion for helping others with how busy life can get. Take your vacation, worry less about your furry friends having their needs met, call on me as someone eager and determined to help!

My schedule varies week to week, however I have days off and variance within the week that leaves me free within the morning/afternoon. On the days with long shifts, I am unable to leave work, however on other days I am available for whatever is needed! I am an early riser and tend to go to sleep later, therefore any early mornings for late nights will not be a problem for the care I can provide. It would be preferred to care for your pets within your own home, however I do not expect to stay the night or be cared for. I have a place of my own, although if needed, staying the night is not a problem. I am more than willing to travel to your home to meet your pet there to care for them. I do have a dog within my home, however he is a recent rescue and for your own pets safety as well as the utmost care being provided, bring them to my own home is not applicable. He is a friendly pup, however any potential negative interactions is something I would like to avoid to keep your pet safe. I will come to you, no problem at all!

I would love to become a dog walker or sitter to get to know more about other breeds and to get to know my area I do have another full time job, but I am willing to accommodate to your pets needs. We can discuss this further when booking. I am able to have decently flexible schedule. I will listen to the needs of the client. I will make sure that their pet is well loved and cared for while I am watching them.
About: Hi, my name is Marguerite :) I previously worked at a Veterinary clinic and have experience with both cats and dogs. To build trust and ensure safety, I make sure every animal is comfortable before I approach them and try to pet them. I read body language very well and am okay respecting an animal's space when needed. I will make sure that your baby is cared for and gets love as often as they want it!. I’m a current student at UoM, so I may have to slightly adjust normal feeding/walking/potty times because of class or the occasional meeting but can always adapt to the routine that makes your pet happy :) I’m currently a full time student but am available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the day until noon! I’m also available on weekends and Tues/Thurs evenings. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of, like if they are friendly/unfriendly with other animals or people. I will be able to accomadate for them when I take care of them and do the best job I can.
About: I have been around pets since I was little, cats, dogs, and fish! They have shaped me into who I am I will make sure to treat your pets like mine! I currently have two pets, 2 cats (Izumi, Amara) and live with my sister and her dog, a chihuahua mix. I would love to do a meet and greet with you to establish trust that your pets will be safe and sound while you are away :) For overnight visits you will get a detailed nightly update just to comfort you while you're away from your fur babies. I am currently working minimal hours at a pet store and focusing on going back to school, so my schedule is very flexible, so I can devote as much time as your pet needs. To establish trust I want to do a meet and greet with you before you head out (unless its last minute for a walk). Anytime you want, you can request pictures or an update on how your pupper or kitty is doing. I will still send you a detailed nightly update at the end of the day so you know how your pet is doing.

From the moment I dropped off my pup, I felt reassured by the frequent updates they sent me. It was evident that they treated my dog as if she were their own, going above and beyond to ensure her comfort and happiness. Her genuine love for animals truly shone through, and it was so heartwarming to know that my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and attentive environment for their beloved pet.”

About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, so understanding their personalities and needs comes naturally. I've walked and cared for rescue dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels at the dog shelter I've volunteered in. I've also dog sat for friends and family over the years, and have even helped care for Rover clients' dogs on behalf of friends who were sitters. These experiences have taught me how important it is to provide not just basic care, but patience, consistency, and lots of affection. I treat every dog as if they were my own, whether they love long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with good company. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I'm employed full-time, but I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and can work from home when needed to provide attentive care for your pup. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I intend to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. An added bonus is that my wife, who's an even bigger dog lover than I am and has owned dogs throughout her life, is home during the day. That means your pup will have extra companionship, supervision, and lots of affection while staying with us. On weekends, we're both home and can dedicate our full attention to keeping your dog active, happy, and comfortable. The best care comes from keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're already familiar with. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, walking routine, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and any special instructions you provide. If your dog has medications, dietary restrictions, or favorite toys and activities, I'll make sure those needs are met. I enjoy playing with dogs, going on walks, and making sure they get both physical activity and time to relax. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I'll send regular photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away.
“Lindsey was amazing with our pups! The updates were fantastic and much appreciated. Great communication, and our dogs loved being there. Thanks so much!”
“Irv was absolutely fantastic! I needed someone to watch Shadow while in Troy for an event (less than 2 days in the middle of a road trip)- he took Shadow in and made him the most spoiled dog around. He communicated so well from the moment I requested the booking, after confirming, and while he had Shadow up until I picked him up. He sent many photos and clearly has a lot of experience and expertise with dogs. He made me and Shadow feel so comfortable. I highly recommend Irv, and wish he lived local to me to use him more often. Your dog will be in amazing hands!!”
“Thank you for watching our whole tribe of fur babies. I appreciate the coordinated and organized drop-off and pick up. We received updates throughout their stay and everybody came home safe.”
“Melissa was amazing and took such good care of our dog when we were on vacation. This was our first time leaving him for a long period of time but I felt so comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Great communication and he seemed like he had fun! Definitely recommend”
“She was a great sitter! She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was very attentive to my dog’s needs, and when she had questions or concerns, she didn’t hesitate to reach out. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog and made sure she was well taken care of. I highly recommend her!”
“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
“Brittnie was great. She communicates all the time and sent plenty of pictures with the updates. I could not have been happier with her service and I highly recommend her.”
