About: I have extensive volunteer experience at animal control, 4 years as an animal care technician, and have always had pets of my own. No dog is too much to handle. High energy? Great, let's run. Old timer? That's okay, we can hang out at home. Little puppy? No worries, I can practice training basic commands. I have managed to harmoniously share my life with 3 dogs, 4 cats, bunnies and chinchillas. I would be glad to spread that love to your furry family. No two dogs or cats are alike, so why provide cookie-cutter care? With me, your dog will be provided one of a kind exceptional care. On top of it all, I can take some pretty cute pictures. No worries if your pet is independent or prefers a quiet environment, we are able to separate the house into different wings. At this time I am working from 7-3:30 Monday-Friday, the rest of my time is spent at home with my pets where I am available to provide the same care I will never put your pet in a situation they are not comfortable with and promise to provide what they need for their safety whether it's personal space, a gated off room, time in a crate or social play time with my owns dogs
“Highly recommend! Cooper was well taken care of and Martha provided regular updates with photos. She went above and beyond, taking him for walks and playing fetch. It was heart warming to see Cooper cuddle up to her as we left, not wanting to leave. A true testament to her care and attention. We will definitely be seeing her for future boarding opportunities!”
“I sent my Bailey girl for the first time today and I am so happy with how her day went! Kelly sent me updates and pictures and kept me informed throughout the day. Very pleased and we will be booking again! Thank you Kelly!”
“Toni was great and they really made my dog feel comfortable being in a new setting with new experiences. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Great communication and I was so happy she was available on short notice.”
“Michelle is an amazing host who clearly loves dogs and cats! She is thoughtful, an excellent communicator, and a true animal lover. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone, and we look forward to having our beloved Polly stay with her again in the future. Highly, highly recommended!”
“Outstanding service from Greta. Lola loved it there and it shows when she came back home from our long vacation. Great was very accessible and sent updates and pictures (which by the way kept my wife from worrying. ?) Will definitely be using Greta in the future. I think we found our perfect Dog sitter ☺️. Thank you Greta again for everything.”
“Victoria was the best! Her kiddos were adorable and clearly so gentle and good with the dogs. They got so much love while they were there! Plus the house + back yard setup was ideal for lots of playing and running. Victoria was super flexible and easy to communicate with. Would absolutely book again!”
“Donielle is a phenomenal pet sitter! This was our first time leaving our dog, and we never worried for a minute. She has years of experience and took fantastic care of our pup. It felt like our dog was on her own vacation and having so much fun she didn't even miss us! I highly recommend Donielle for her professional and caring service.”
“Everything about this experience was great. Hope treated the dogs as if they were her own. Picking them up, they almost didn't want to leave. Highly recommend Hope and will contact her again when we need a sitter.”
“Kellie and Paige were great with my Nora girl. Even with their schedules, other dogs, and life she got special attention. That included sitting next to Nora while she ate for reassurance. She was definitely treated like she was their own. Nora will be back!”
About: Hello! I’m a passionate, aspiring dog trainer with a special love for German Shepherds. I recently raised a litter of puppies, which deepened my understanding of early puppy development and the importance of critical socialization. That experience sparked a stronger interest in training and caring for dogs during their most impressionable stages and beyond. I’m currently expanding my hands-on experience and would love the opportunity to care for your dog—whether it’s through boarding, walks, or helping with basic training and structure. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely dedicated to each dog’s unique needs. Whether you have a playful pup or a more mature dog, I’m here to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment. Let’s give your dog a happy, enriching experience! I’m currently doing pet care full time with aspirations of starting my very own dog training program one day. I’m soaking up all of the experience I can get right now. My backyard is secured by a 6ft wooden privacy fence and features a 900sqft barn which has multiple crates for dogs of all sizes. My house is dog friendly as well being completely puppy proofed.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I am my family and friends go to sitter. I am reliable, experienced, and will love your pets as if they are my own! My schedule is currently very flexible. Just let me know what days are best for you and I will be able to work around that! My family of 6 are all huge animal lovers so your pet will have all the extra belly rubs! We have a dog, Loki, he is very playful with other animals. I also live near a dog park & nature trails, so your animal will be able to enjoy some fresh air & get lots of play time!
“Brittany was super sweet to our doggy. Always communicating with us, sending us photos, and keeping us updated. We are so grateful that Luca could stay with her, happy and safe while we were a part of a wedding this weekend. We are so happy and highly recommend her to take care of your pups.”
About: I’ve owned different breeds of dogs my whole life, I am also a sitter for my mother in law who breeds and boards dogs occasional. I work from home, I have plenty of time to play with the animals! With feeding, potty times as needed, and water at all times. Must be crate trained for the night time hours, during the day the animal will be out of the cage. I have a Doberman pincher.

“Mary was EXCEPTIONAL!! She took care of our 3 WHPGs while we were gone for 9 days! The pups had some tummy troubles while we were gone and Mary made sure both the the pups and their spaces were clean and happy!! I highly recommend Mary!”
“Sara is a fantastic pet sitter! I've used her many times for my cat Buddy, and she always provides great care. Communication is excellent, with regular updates and photos. Highly recommend!”
“Katie was beyond fantastic!! She made sure to get to know us and our (6) cats prior. And while visiting them, she took extra attention/time with our old lady cat to ensure she ate enough. Gave lots of scratches to our other furrbabies, sent us pics each day, and even cleaned up some (not so pleasant) ‘cat mess’ for us. Will be requesting her again any time we have to travel!!”
About: Welcome! I have over 20years experience working with dogs. I like to look at my pet boarding as an Airbnb for pets! I am a former service dog trainer. I am currently enrolled in dog training courses through Rover. I will be completing a Veterinarian Assistant program this summer. There is always someone home or available. I work & study remotely. I do provide talking dog buttons. If your dog uses them let me know & we will have them available with words your dog uses & hopefully learn some new ones! Anything that is trending that promoted positive life quality for dogs I usually have on hand or am incorporating it into use Each day I incorporate daily walks, cuddles, & basic training. Basic training is eye contact, leash & buddy walking. I provide one on one time for the dogs each daily. I make sure no dog feels left out. In the summer months their last night of boarding they get a special walk to the ice cream store to enjoy a pup cup & extra one on one time. On weekends in the summers. I am outside most days . The dog/s can enjoy ice bowls, kiddie pool, water sprinklers and shade in the backyard. In the summer I offer water play daily! They have free will to come in & out of the house into the fenced in yard all day! In the fall & winter months the dogs can enjoy outside time by a warm outdoor doggie bonfire. There are areas they can romp in the leaves & explore. I also incorporate daily walks weather permitting. On colder days or rainy days we have a rainy paw day. If the dogs are open to it they can enjoy some doggy stretches, Spaw services such as coconut oil rubs on their paw pads, homemade doggie treats, and dog related movies and cuddles!
“Becky went above and beyond my expectations. I really only needed twice a day feedings for my two shy kitties. The kitchen and litter box area were cleaner than when I left! The icing on the cake was the sweet card that she left for me. I recommend her highly.”
“Makayla is so kind and so great with my kitty, Misty. My kitty loves her and they really enjoy each other! Definitely will keep booking her to care for my Misty. Highly recommend.”

I value my babies just as much as I will value yours!
About: I've had alot of animals since I was very young. Im part of animal rescue and foster care for animals. Ranging from birds to big dogs I've dealt with and took care of all of them since I was young. I'm about to go to college and would love to take care and play with animals on my free time. I sadly can't have pets in a dorm but I can come and take care of them. I will ask where everything needed is. For example I would like to know how to work the bath. Where the bath supplies are for taking care of the animal. Where their food and dishes are. How much they need. Where the toys are. What can they not eat. Just overall care for them.
About: I have had family pets for my whole life. Dogs and cats, chickens, ducks, and turkeys. I worked at a horse barn for over 2 years. My cat had passed away over a year ago from liver cancer. I am used to incorporating medicine in food, pills or even a syringe directing in the mouth. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time for daily care including walks, sitting or feedings.I am also available for weekly routines as well. I love to look at notes/routines provided from the client and follow accordingly. I love to send update pictures/videos to keep updated on their pets daily as I do my best for their pets to have the best time. I do not take risks as the wellbeing of pets are paramount.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I have had a variety of pets since I was a child. I currently have 3 dogs and a cat. Our family & friends reach out to me when they plan on going on long trips or vacations because they know I jump at the opportunity to take care of their pets! I’m currently working full time during the week so right now I can only manage drop in visits throughout the weekend. Depending on the situation I could make drop in visits available during the week in the evenings as well! I will care for your pet(s) at your home in any way that is needed. If they need special care/medications or anything if that nature I am more than willing and able to take care of it.
“Molly is the ONLY person I’ll ever consider when having to leave my dogs home while I travel! She was FANTASTIC with my dogs and they ADORE HER! She is uniquely qualified as a Vet Tech, and I felt very comfortable in knowing my older dog’s meds were given and given correctly. My dogs were so well cared for that they really weren’t overly excited to see me when I returned! Thank you, Molly, for the outstanding care and attention you gave to my dogs!!!”
“Kallie has watched my babies a handful of times now, and Im so grateful to have found her and to have someone that I can trust! I truly would not be able to take these longer trips without her!!”
“Brooke was amazing ! I’m a Paramedic in Flint so I work long days . I have a new pup that is 5 months old and he’s crated while I’m at work . She came to my house and was able to let him out and play with him . She gave him some water and a couple treats . I booked her again because she seemed to do really well with my puppy . She communicated with me and I am very grateful to her for taking the time .”
About: I’ve taken care of big, small and medium dogs of all different breeds for three years. I’ve even cared for cats as well.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Vernon

About: I grew up and still live on a farm. I have kept dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, etc. throughout my life. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. I work from home and know how frustrating it can be to worry about your pets while on vacation. I will send photos and videos of your fur family while you're away so you can stay in touch while you're away. My preference is to care for your fur family in a comfortable environment, their normal home. I am happy to host your fur family in my home, but I already have 2 small dogs, so I think they would be more comfortable if I came to them.
“Victoria is pleasant and went above and beyond our expectations. She accommodated our last minute request and provided texts and video during the doggy daycare stay. Would highly recommend booking with her.”

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.

About: I've had dogs my whole life and have personally trained my own dogs very well. I love dogs and am a great person to look after anyone's pet. I work at home on the computer. So I have time to take care of my dogs as well as others. I'm outside playing with my dogs all the time. I have 20 acres of land that is super safe for dogs. I have a fenced in area with a pool dogs are welcome to and fenced in grass backyard area that I keep open so dogs can go in and out for food/water and bathroom. I have few miles of custom made walking trails safe for dogs. All really safe and far from roads in the middle of the neighborhood block. All dogs have a lot of fun at my house. I have tons of room in my house. My front yard is incredibly spacious and has an electric pavilion that I keep food and water for dogs at in the daytime.
About: From early on in life I have always been an animal lover. I was the one bringing home injured birds and stray dogs/cats when I was a kid. My mom was supportive of that passion and helped me help so many animals over the years. I have personally only adopted animals from rescues and my current dog is a rescue. I volunteer time to local rescues and bring supplies to local shelters. I care for neighbors animals and homes when they go out of town. I am always very nervous about new people around my animal and home, so I always make sure to treat clients like how I would want to be treated. I really enjoy giving people one less thing to worry about. I am openly available. Besides the occasional errand, I am always home, so nobody will be left home alone! We are up with the sun and stay up late! We are on 9 acres with river access, a quiet country road and plenty of places to lounge or run! It is not fenced in.
About: I've had a dog for the past 5 years ( shiloh ) she's a German Shepard! She is wonderfully and well trained also is fixed. she does love to greet people so she might jump. I've also dog sat for many years as well and I worked for a dog company back in 2017 where I took care of daily task as well as medical needs when necessary, and worked along side pregnant and and birthing mothers. I have had a couple cats growing up, none to call my own though. So I am also acquainted with the care of cats and kittens as well as shiloh was raised around all types of animals and children of various ages so we are comfortable saying there should be no issues with her. However we can make other accommodation for her if you don't feel comfortable with another animal in the home. One final note I have 2 children a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I hope you enjoy my profile and to hear from you soon! I have a 5 year old German Shepard who lives full time with me and my children at home. I know how to give medication, shots aswell as cut nails and bathe but I do not feel comfortable trimming or giving the dogs a hair cut. I don't have a fence, i do have a little yard but I have harnesses and leads to walk and take the dogs out side to play. I do have a crate available if needed my dog is trained as well as crate trained. Shiloh ( my dog ) love the company of other fur babies to run around as play with. My two children are also in love with animals but I do have a vary large second living room and attached mud room that I can limit off for dog access if it would make having a dog stay here more comfortable due them not being used to children!
About: I'm a caring dog owner and have my own hobby farm. I love all kinds of animals but dogs hold a special place in my heart! My husband and I have 11 acres & the dogs love going on walks through the trails and seeing the farm animals along the way. I am attentive to each animals individual needs and love the affection dogs give. I have experience walking many breeds of dogs and have reliable transportation to get to your home on time for potty breaks. I know how much our dogs need human interaction and I think I enjoy play time as much as they do! You can trust me to give your pup the best care possible, whether at your home or mine. Thanks for taking the time to check me out! God bless you! I’m currently working part time so I have lots of time to care for your pet! I’m also very active and love to take the dogs for walks! I have 11 acres and trails to keep your dog active! I also have my own dog who, although older, turns into a puppy when other dogs are around and loves to play.

About: Hi! My goal is to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable while getting the best form of care I can provide. Growing up with animals, especially dogs, has taught how to be a patient and caring person. I’ve built a relationship with my own dog off of trust and want to do the same while caring for your pupper! I’m a focused and detail oriented person and will work to ensure all your specific needs are met. Currently I’m working part time, so I have a flexible and pretty open schedule to take care of your pets. I’m also good with last minute changes and can easily switch around my schedule for what works best for you! I live in a small town with plenty of areas to walk dogs and I also have a fenced in back yard. I have one dog and two cats that do well around other animals, as well as a trustworthy vehicle to take me to your location.

About: I’ve had the joy of owning cats and dogs for many many years. I have owned several varieties. I have also had the joy of taking care of other peoples pets. I currently work part-time and I can fit pet Care into my daily and or weekly routine with ease. I am available for more hours in the summer. I tend to care for others pets in their home or walking. I do have my own pets and I know it’s not best to introduce unknown animals.
About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, with experience ranging from dogs, cats, and rabbits to ferrets, birds, hamsters, and all kinds of farm animals. I also grew up maintaining a 400-gallon fish tank that included a wide variety of fish and even small freshwater sharks, giving me a strong understanding of aquatic care. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have raised two very active 100+ lb German Shepherd/Lab mixes since they were puppies, so I am confident handling large, high-energy dogs. Despite my size, I am fully capable of managing and guiding strong animals safely and effectively. I am happy to assist with all aspects of pet care, including long walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I am also comfortable caring for pets of all ages and administering medications when needed (with prior instructions). Additionally, I have long-term experience(10+ years) caring for a Bengal cat with Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD), which has given me hands-on experience with specialized care and medication routines. I am currently a student at Central Michigan University and work part-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available for both daytime visits and overnight stays in your home. I strongly believe pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, and I strive to maintain their routine while providing consistent care and companionship. I am always happy to provide extra references or additional information to help you feel confident and comfortable. I also maintain a respectful, non-judgmental approach to every home and will always leave your space in the same condition as when I arrived. So never be afraid of how your space might look!

Sunday - Tuesdays are my off days outside of doctor appointments and any other extra curriculars I do ☺️ I do only offer in home services as my older dog is a bit of a rough player and my younger is in service training and I can't take the risk of him being injured. In you home, I will stay with you pet overnight if that is what makes you the most comfortable. They can sleep with me or be crated, whichever is preferred by you. Feeding will always be on schedule and meds can be administered as needed (I have a lot of experience keeping meds straight for my own dogs). A daily walk will happen (distance dependent on dog and weather) and we will play in the yard and enjoy lots of cuddles and belly rubs!! While I love spoiling my own babys, I'll make sure to keep everything as consistent as possible for you!
About: I grew up in a family full of animals! Everything from dogs and cats to horses or reptiles. I’m currently raising my 3rd service dog through a guide dog organization, so I’m getting training experience through that as well. I’m a recent graduate from Michigan State University and I’m currently working a part time job. I have time throughout the week for drop in potty breaks or walks depending on the day, most weekends I’m free most of the day on the weekends. I have been offering a variety of levels of care for animals for several years, I have no problem giving any medications, specific schedules, going on as many frequent walks or potty breaks depending on what fits your furry friends the best. I love every one of my clients animals as much as I love my personal pets. I enjoy getting to know their personalities and how to help them best feel comfortable. I prefer to do a meet and greet before overnight visits so your furry friends will feel more comfortable with me in their space.
About: Hello! I’m a passionate, aspiring dog trainer with a special love for German Shepherds. I recently raised a litter of puppies, which deepened my understanding of early puppy development and the importance of critical socialization. That experience sparked a stronger interest in training and caring for dogs during their most impressionable stages and beyond. I’m currently expanding my hands-on experience and would love the opportunity to care for your dog—whether it’s through boarding, walks, or helping with basic training and structure. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely dedicated to each dog’s unique needs. Whether you have a playful pup or a more mature dog, I’m here to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment. Let’s give your dog a happy, enriching experience! I’m currently doing pet care full time with aspirations of starting my very own dog training program one day. I’m soaking up all of the experience I can get right now. My backyard is secured by a 6ft wooden privacy fence and features a 900sqft barn which has multiple crates for dogs of all sizes. My house is dog friendly as well being completely puppy proofed.
About: I’ve taken care of big, small and medium dogs of all different breeds for three years. I’ve even cared for cats as well. My family has always ran to me with their animal needs and I have bathed, fed, walked and have had genuine play time with every single one of them. I currently work full-time but get home around 6 pm everyday. I can do nights and do not work weekends at all. I’ll have plenty of time for your pets! I will leave your dog/house looking better than when I arrived. I will go above and beyond for your fur babies as I have one of my own, and couldn’t imagine them not having the best care!
About: I would make a great sitter for you because I genuinely love spending time with all animals ,and I have a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. My passion for animals drives me to create a nurturing and safe environment for them, where they can feel comfortable and happy. I’m Working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time with your animals, but I do work so I would be gone for a couple hours. I’m pretty flexible with times. I also don’t work on holidays It's essential to conduct drop-ins on the dogs they care for to ensure their well-being and comfort. Regular visits play a crucial role in maintaining the dogs' daily routines, which can significantly reduce stress and anxiety for the animals.
About: From early on in life I have always been an animal lover. I was the one bringing home injured birds and stray dogs/cats when I was a kid. My mom was supportive of that passion and helped me help so many animals over the years. I have personally only adopted animals from rescues and my current dog is a rescue. I volunteer time to local rescues and bring supplies to local shelters. I care for neighbors animals and homes when they go out of town. I am always very nervous about new people around my animal and home, so I always make sure to treat clients like how I would want to be treated. I really enjoy giving people one less thing to worry about. I am openly available. Besides the occasional errand, I am always home, so nobody will be left home alone! We are up with the sun and stay up late! We are on 9 acres with river access, a quiet country road and plenty of places to lounge or run! It is not fenced in.
About: I’m a single mother of two, running and outdoors enthusiast, and lover of 4 legged friends. I live one mile from work and have a flexible schedule to be able to accommodate multiple quick trips home if needed. While working, your pet would never be alone more than 4 hours. In my home pets are allowed on the couch and in bed with me. I have a partially fenced back yard with room to run. I live in a neighborhood setting with sidewalks making walks ideal. I’m 5 minutes away from Owosso’s bark park. My two daughters love dogs as well and have grown up with dogs in the home. I look forward to the chance to get to know you and your dog. Thank you.
“Jilli instantly clicked with my pup! My dog looks forward to every walk with Jilli! I’d recommend her to anyone looking for their fur baby to be taken great care of. She’s extremely flexible and it’s a relief to know my pups in good hands with her.”
About: I've had a dog for the past 5 years ( shiloh ) she's a German Shepard! She is wonderfully and well trained also is fixed. she does love to greet people so she might jump. I've also dog sat for many years as well and I worked for a dog company back in 2017 where I took care of daily task as well as medical needs when necessary, and worked along side pregnant and and birthing mothers. I have had a couple cats growing up, none to call my own though. So I am also acquainted with the care of cats and kittens as well as shiloh was raised around all types of animals and children of various ages so we are comfortable saying there should be no issues with her. However we can make other accommodation for her if you don't feel comfortable with another animal in the home. One final note I have 2 children a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I hope you enjoy my profile and to hear from you soon! I have a 5 year old German Shepard who lives full time with me and my children at home. I know how to give medication, shots aswell as cut nails and bathe but I do not feel comfortable trimming or giving the dogs a hair cut. I don't have a fence, i do have a little yard but I have harnesses and leads to walk and take the dogs out side to play. I do have a crate available if needed my dog is trained as well as crate trained. Shiloh ( my dog ) love the company of other fur babies to run around as play with. My two children are also in love with animals but I do have a vary large second living room and attached mud room that I can limit off for dog access if it would make having a dog stay here more comfortable due them not being used to children!

About: I have extensive volunteer experience at animal control, 4 years as an animal care technician, and have always had pets of my own. No dog is too much to handle. High energy? Great, let's run. Old timer? That's okay, we can hang out at home. Little puppy? No worries, I can practice training basic commands. I have managed to harmoniously share my life with 3 dogs, 4 cats, bunnies and chinchillas. I would be glad to spread that love to your furry family. No two dogs or cats are alike, so why provide cookie-cutter care? With me, your dog will be provided one of a kind exceptional care. On top of it all, I can take some pretty cute pictures. No worries if your pet is independent or prefers a quiet environment, we are able to separate the house into different wings. At this time I am working from 7-3:30 Monday-Friday, the rest of my time is spent at home with my pets where I am available to provide the same care I will never put your pet in a situation they are not comfortable with and promise to provide what they need for their safety whether it's personal space, a gated off room, time in a crate or social play time with my owns dogs
