Personalized care for your dog or cat - Waters
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Waters
“Jenna was so wonderful with Noodles. She was very prompt with communications and sent plenty of pictures and updates while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Jenna, when you need someone to watch over your fur baby.”
“I had to find a dog sitter short notice for a work trip. Tayler was accommodating with setting up a meet and greet and with the dates I needed care. Tayler and her family took such great care of my two furbabies. She sent me lots of pictures of them smiling and being loved on. I highly recommend Tayler to take care of your dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: I have been fostering for almost 10 years and have taken care of cats, dogs and horses growing up my whole life. I am familiar with giving meds and special needs for dogs and cats as well. I am working part time to spend more time with my kids and dogs and my kids also love new companions we take in and care for. I have just been wanting to care for more animals in my area. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dobermans and a doberdoodle. They are all dog and kid friendly. My dogs are vetted and up to date on everything. My dobermans are the reason I started fostering as they love new friends! My doberdoodle was my foster fail that I love dearly. I do have a couple kennels but if your dog does better with no kennel I do that as well!
“Audrey was wonderful! We were in a bind last minute and she saved us. Audrey is very responsive, sent pictures of our boy and put my mind at ease. It can be so challenging finding care you trust for your pets but I would absolutely recommend Audrey and would use her again in the future.”
“Randy and his wife were friendly and welcoming, they made us feel comfortable with leaving our two pups in their care. Really appreciated the updates and pictures of how they were enjoying their time at Randy’s home. Highly recommend 😃”
“Sky is very welcoming and professional. I got several updates about my puppy’s stay. I was nervous with this being his first sleepover, him not being fully potty trained, and being put on meds semi last minute, but she communicated with me before his stay and helped put me at ease.”
About: Hey guys! I'm just a Midwest girl living in my Midwest world! I have the typical Veteran husband and one of our three kids still living at home! We have a 7 pound Chihuahua and two kittens who are the current rulers of the home. I bring a professional, hands-on background to every dog I care for, shaped by my experience supporting K9 work in the military and training dogs across a wide range of needs. From guiding young puppies through early obedience and socialization to reinforcing structure and confidence in adult dogs, I focus on calm, consistent, and respectful handling. My approach blends proven training principles with genuine affection—clear communication, routine, and trust, paired with plenty of attention and care. On our private 20-acre property, dogs have the space to decompress, explore safely, and enjoy a peaceful environment while still receiving individualized guidance and close supervision. While we do have 20 acres that we can walk through we also have a fenced in area and GPS Fence collars for your dog to use. Depending on the training your dog has been through we can work with you to see what fits best. I am a full time mom who homeschools her kid. My husband is home part time so most of the time we are home if not pup will be crated. I have a fenced in yard and a pet safe GPS collar for the pups. So no matter what the pup will be secured. There is no gate to leave the fenced in area so to leave you have to go through the house.
“Kendra was such a great sitter for our Watson! We dropped him off and picked him up at the pet salon in downtown East Jordan. In between, she texted us daily pictures and he seemed to make himself right at home with her family. We were able to travel without any anxiety about how he was doing. She was also nice about our late arrival time when our drive home took longer than expected. Thanks so much, Kendra!”
“Alyssa was amazing in keeping in touch with pics and text. She was very good with a high energy bigger dog that is emotionally needy. Highly recommend her services. Will be using her services on a regular basis!”
“Ashley was AMAZING! She treated my sweet kitty so well and was extremely attentive to her as well as responsive. She would send me multiple pictures and videos a day and calmed all of my fears of leaving my girl for so long!! Highly recommend her and will definitely book her again in the future ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Chloe did a a fabulous job watching our little girl. She spent lots of time playing with her and gave her ample supervised outdoor time. She even left Cat TV on for our girl while she was away. Chloe sent us multiple updates with pictures and was always very responsive. We are also very appreciative with how much time Chloe was able to spend with our kitty while we were away, ensuring that she did not get lonely. We highly recommend Chloe and will be booking her in the future! :)”
“Megan was always on time and communicated well during each visit including great pictures! Megan went above and beyond for our kitties making sure they got their meds and cleaning up after them. I will definitely re-book Megan in the future!”
“Patty was a great communicator from start to finish. She kept us informed on our cats and treated our house well. We would definitely let her watch our house and kitties again. Thanks Patty!”

About: In college I worked as a professional pet sitter that was over 20 years ago. Since then I have pet sat off and on over the years in my home and in clients home. I have experience walking lots of dogs at one time. I have experience with horses and cows as well. I also have 5 years of professional pet grooming experience too. I have had family pets my entire life. I currently work part time as a substitute teacher and with my boyfriend at his lawn care business. I have a flexible schedule and will be able to fit pet sitting/ dog boarding/ dog walking in when needed. I have a large yard and live on quite a bit of property. I also have trails behind my house for walking. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I live off a quiet road. I will be putting a tie out for dogs that’s what I used in the past for my dogs .

About: Fair prices, compassionate, patient, good with all ages of pets, I’ll treat your pet as my own, available almost every time you set up an appointment. I’m currently not working so I have all the time in the world for your pet, to be there when you need me to, walk them when they want to, and feed and play with them whenever they bark. I have a decent yard they can run and play in, bunch of toys, and I can take them for walks at anytime, smoke free home, and I’m just a compassionate pet lover.
About: I have cared for all ages of dogs and cats. I work at a boarding kennel/ daycare and am used to cues in play when it comes to dogs. I have cleaned up after all of the messes with no issues, and can bath if needed and the animal allows it (extra fee). I can administer medications in all varieties and can comfortably handle shy and reactive dogs. I have leash walked dogs that have recently had acl repairs and can lift over 50 lbs if needed. I work 4 days at my current job from 8-5. I have three days off and can work with you as needed. I have my own car and can travel within reason. I have a fenced in backyard and space to put kennels while your dog rests. I have a three year old Australian shepherd who absolutely loves other dogs. (Shy to people). I have a gate to put up so your dog could have free rein of the living room in the evening and a camera to be able to check in on them.
“Frani is so wonderful with my little maltipoo Cali. Cali has never had anyone walk her except me, and Frani helped make the transition of having a dog walker a few times a week a breeze! Cali loves her, and they have a great time walking and sniffing around the neighborhood and dog park. Frani is reliable, on time, communicative, friendly, and a really nice person. I highly recommend Frani!”
About: I’ve been the family/friend animal sitter for over 5 years officially. 3 on Rover. I work from home & only leave for appointments. Approximately 2 hrs I’d be out of the house. Otherwise I’m home and available. For grooming if you’d like me to brush your pets teeth or clip toe nails, then select the grooming add on & message me specifics. I don’t do black toe nails on animals. I can also do pick up/ drop offs in Grayling I’m an insurance agent, for Medicare & 65+ retirement planning. It’s by schedule, so some days are earlier & some later in the week. Weekends are my freest time Making sure I talk to them to help them feel seen & I put dog tv on to help keep them busy indoors on rainy days I’m in town away from main roads, lowering traffic nearby.
