About: I have been proudly owned by dogs since I was 7 years old. I love dogs. My dogs. Your dogs. Everyone's dogs. I am currently the proud dogmom of a sweet, loving, mostly deaf, senior female Cocker Spaniel. PaTutti is almost 15 years old. She is a sweet old girl that sleeps most of the day. She was recently diagnosed with lymphoma. She's handling it like a champ. Seniors rock!! 🩷 I have rescued my last several dogs from my local animal shelter, and I especially love senior and special needs dogs. My two most-senior boys (both 15+ years old) peacefully crossed Rainbow Bridge over the past two years. And, I recently said goodbye to Trubby, who peacefully crossed Rainbow Bridge in October, 2024. We cannot let those we love the most suffer, no matter how much it breaks our heart to let them go. I'm experienced with diabetic dogs, (my blind English Setter was diagnosed diabetic at the age of 12; and, he lived to the ripe old age of almost 15) and I can administer insulin and other medications. I know all of the "pill-giving secrets." I am retired and have all day to love your dog and make them feel at home. Several of my rescued dogs have been seizure dogs, so I am also experienced with seizure events. I have a fenced-in yard and my lawns are always pesticide- and fertilizer-free. (I might have some dandelions, but they make the bees happy!) 🐝 I will gladly provide a 10% discount to all active duty military, veterans, and first responders. Please ask for your discount before you book, so I can modify your rate. (Proof of eligibility will be required. ) I do require that your dogs be fully vaccinated, including flea and tick topicals. And I would also like to meet your pet(s) before they stay in my care. (Since I have a senior dog of my own, I would like to assess the personalities of all new dogs coming into my home for boarding and day care.) I am home all day long. Dogsitting is my ONLY job. I will be able to give your dog(s) all of the love and attention they need. Your dogs will live in my home as one of my dogs. They are on my couch with me; they follow me from room to room; they hang around the kitchen when I'm cooking dinner. My house is their house. We all live together as one big happy family.

About: I had a Black Lab for 14 wonderful years and a Lhaso Apso mix for 13 years. Have had a succession of felines. Retired, so no work schedule obligations. We are new to Rover but we have extensive pet/housesit (2010-present) testimonials on external sites that we will provide. From 1 week to 10 mth lengths. Dennis and I are retired , we have all the time in the world. We are available weekends, weekdays, and holidays. Presently have no other obligations or major trips planned. For housesitting, we simply follow instructions given by the pet parents. We will not deviate from them. We always keep the owners updated with frequent photos. We have had sitters in our home, so we know the concerns at both ends.

About: Along with raising my two amazing children, I have been a cat, dog, horse, rabbit and bird Momma my entire life. I owned a small horse farm in Michigan and competed in equestrian speed events for many years before retirement and now I am ready and available to care for your pets! I have been blessed with animals from an early age. I love animals and treat them all like my own fur babies! I hope to be able to care for your pet and will give your pet the love and affection necessary so the absence from their own pet parent will be a little bit better! Expect them to be spoiled! I am retired and in the Hale, Mi area. I am available most week days to feed, visit, walk or house sit animals. From April-September, I will be in Northern Michigan and from October-April, Fort Myers, Florida. If I am to care for your pet overnight in your home or mine, I will have my well-trained service dog, a mini-Aussie with me. She gets along well with all animals. I have flexibility to care for your pet. I do not have a fenced in yard at my home but animals would be leashed and great care taken to provide a safe environment. I typically walk my own dog 3 times/day so depending on if our dogs get along, I can walk together or separately.

“Stephanie did a great job taking care of my cat George. He can be a challenge because he has separation anxiety, but he was not stressed out when we got home. She has good communications and sends some reassuring pictures too.”


“Louis our boys loved having you drop in. They told us how much they enjoyed playing with you. As parents of these playful boys we were very anxious about leaving them overnight. You made us feel comfortable Enough to schedule again! Thank you for caring for our boys!”

All the animals were well cared for including a chicken flock, two horses and two big dogs, which were walked daily. The house was left very clean and small repairs or problems were handled efficiently as they arose. We would highly recommend this couple and they have many reviews on mindmyhouse and housecarers.com . K and O Gray”

Linda is great!”
