About: I've been around and taken care of pets my entire life! I will treat yours like my own! We have a big yard and a house full of animal lovers! I am currently off work for the summer so I'll have lots of time for your fur babies! I am a home body so we rarely leave the house. I have a big yard for your pet to run and play in. I also have 3 very friendly dogs of my own to keep your dog company. I have multiple size crates available if needed. My house is very pet friendly!
“Jake was super kind and helped us out when we really needed someone! He took excellent care of our dog and we will definitely be using him in the future! I loved all of the photos and updates he sent! Thank you!”
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.
About: I grew up with cats since I was 8 years old, and adopted a husky puppy about 2 years ago. I have 2 kittens and 1 dog of my own. Since becoming a pet owner myself, I have grown passionate about providing the best life and the best care for my babies! I would love to help out the community and spend my spare time caring for your furry members of your family. Having 2 years of experience training and caring for a high energy puppy, I am confident I can provide top notch care, and treat your pets as my own. I am working full time at Dow as an engineer. I have every other Friday off, but I am also able to provide care after 4 o clock on Friday’s I work. I am free Saturdays and Sundays all day. With two kittens and a dog myself, I would prefer to provide house sitting services or drop in visits in your home. I can easily take your dogs out for a potty break, food/water break, and a walk for drop in visits. I can crate your pup as well. I am also more than happy to provide care for your kitties, such as litter box cleaning, feeding, and lots of cuddles and treats.
