Dog Walkers in Alaska, MI

“Thank you so much for taking care of CopperDog on short notice when we were in a pinch! It made his day… and ours!”

“Very happy I hired Timothy to walk our two huskies while out of town for four nights. I have never done it before because huskies can be a handful and I never trusted anyone else to walk my dogs, including my normal pet sitter, because of how strong and unpredictable my dogs are. But, I knew our youngest would go absolutely insane without any daily enrichment. Timothy showed up promptly each morning and provided a good report on each walk and some pictures showing the dogs panting, so I knew the walk tired them out, which was the whole point. I felt so much better knowing they were getting some exercise. Will definitely use the service again.”

“Kaylee is amazing! She does such a great job with my puppy and always gives me detailed notes after every walk. I would recommend her to anyone, she is very reliable and sweet!”

About: I grew up with dogs and fish in my home. Since moving out and not being able to financially care for a pet, I thought I’d offer to watch and care for yours when you’re unavailable. I work full-time at a hospital so I will be offering my services on days I have off from there, where I work as a registered respiratory therapist. I am willing to stay in your home during the days I work if you are out of town. The only thing to be aware of is that my shifts are 12 hours long. I’m willing to stay in your home with your pet when you’re away from home and follow any schedules you may have for your pet.

About: I am a life long dog lover, raising dogs for the entirety of my first 18 years of life. While we live in a home where we can't keep dogs. At home we care for a menagerie of pets, including 1 cat, 2 rabbits, 3 degus, 2 budgies, 1 cockatiel, 1 painted turtle and keep 5 freshwater aquariums! I am self employed with a very flexible schedule. I try to fit in 3-5 dog walks per week. Sometimes more if my schedule allows. I am always very mindful of any pets in my care. We have a cockatiel who we allow to fly around the house, so I am always very watching and aware, ensure doors and windows are treated with care to ensure the safety of my pets.

“Gretchen has a real love that for animals which shows. She was flexible when I had plans change, and spent extra time with my pets, even showing extra concern for the security of my home. I’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to take care of your family!”

About: I have years of experience caring for animals, from dogs to cats & rabbits. Pet care is an area that I am thrilled to be now pursuing on a higher level. Animals have captured my heart for years, and this is something that will not change now or in the future. I am someone who pays attention to details and always has animal welfare at the forefront of my mind. I do not doubt that I am someone to be trusted with your animals. I look forward to potentially working with you! I am fortunate in that I have a fairly flexible routine currently. This allows for pet care jobs and responsibilities to be easier to take on. I am happy to watch your animals in your home if all checks out. What might it look like? I could stop by once or twice a day (‘depending) to make sure your pet(s) are well and everything is running smoothly. For example, I just wrapped up pet sitting for someone I know in the area & she gave me a spare key for her place. This is just what made sense & what she was comfortable with at the time. She left some realistic instructions for me & all went well. It was a win-win situation. You just need help with dog walking? I am happy to consider that as well!

“Leah was absolutely amazing!! She had great communication the entire time and was very nice and informative. My dog also started warming up to her on the walks which makes me feel so much better because normally it takes a while for him to get used to a person!!”

About: Previous to moving back to MI, I was a dog foster with Dallas Animal Shelter. I also have my own two rescues. I have experience with a wide array of dogs including small chihuahuas to big ole mastiffs ! I love dogs! Each dog I fostered had medical needs and I am a nurse so I promise to care for your pups in the best possible way! So excited to meet you and your pup ! I am a nurse with a rotating schedule, which is great because I can revolve my schedule around your needs (with appropriate notice). I am happy to set up a weekly routine if that is what best fits your needs. I am happy to spend time with your doggy in their fenced yard, walks, and crate them as preferred. However, I do love dog cuddles, so they may be a little late to be crated!!

About: I grew up with dogs in my house my entire childhood. I have two, and I always take care of them, and to this day they remain a part of my life and family.

About: My love for animals is why I want to help you take care of your pet while you go on vacation or work. I love the outdoors and will walk your pet and play their favorite games. I will maintain the routine that your pet is most comfortable with. Your pet will be care as if it was my own pet. I can do whatever level of service you need. I’d prefer to stay at your house to watch over your dog if you are going to be gone for multiple days, so that I don’t have to drive as much. But If all you need for me to do is to stop in and check on things for a couple days while your gone I can do that. i can take your dog for a walk during the day, feed them, check on things, water plants and take in the mail/newspaper. I am currently unemployed so i have a lot of free time on my hands. Let me know when you need me to watch/walk your dogs. I usually feed and give water to my dog 2-3 times a day. I walk my dog 1-2 times a day. He sometimes likes to play toys/fetch. Also he likes a treat in the evenings.

About: Growing up around animals taught me that they aren't just pets—they're family. I have been around pets my whole life and know the importance of keeping them happy and loved. I have raised over a dozen puppies and know how to nurture them. I have also cared for elderly dogs, big dogs, and small dogs. I am looking forward to meeting your fluffy best friend! I am currently working part time and am available on weekdays and weekends. I have availability to work around your schedule! I am looking forward to meeting you and your furry best friends! I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and personalized care.

I stick closely to your pet’s routine, including feeding times, walks, medication (if needed), playtime, and cuddle sessions. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you're away.
