“Melissa was great! She arrives on time and provides great communication and lots of pics and videos while babysitting. She’s very friendly and I felt my puppy was in very safe hands. I will definitely her again, and I highly recommend her.”


“Randi made herself available on short notice, for 2 meetups which we requested. She was patient getting to know our rescue pup, prior to her house sitting while we went out of town. Our pup can be high energy, and also requires walks daily. Randi handled our pup well, giving her lots of attention and even extra sniffy walks beyond what we requested 💜 She seems to truly love animals and we would recommend her!”



“Lauren is so great! Our dogs love her so much! She sends photos of our dogs and is very responsive to chats. She is very tidy and always leaves the house neat. Highly recommend Lauren!”


“Perfection. Holly did such a great job with my cat. She genuinely cares about your pet. She went above and beyond by even brining on my trash can from the curb. Thank-you Holly.”


“I highly recommend Joshua to anyone. He took very good care of my two fur babies. He cleaned up after them. One of my babies is just 7 months ,but he managed to keep up with her. I loved that he sent pictures of them and kept in contact throughout the days. My babies were very happy to have him there. Will definitely be having him watch them again! ?”


“Mason did an excellent job with our pit mix. She requires meds 2x a day and can be leash reactive and Mason handled it all beautifully. We received daily updates which was much appreciated. The house was also well cared for and clean and tidy upon our return. Highly recommend.”


About: I have several years of experience of all types of animals whether it be a reptile, fish, and any furry pet! Depending on medication meds I can also provide care when needed. I’m currently working part-time at Lou’s Pet Shop where I’ve been for almost 5 years and am a current student at MCC. I am very flexible with my schedule especially during the summer so feel free to reach out! I have experience in pet sitting for many years now depending on check ins, staying at the house, walks, etc. Whatever the animal may need we can discuss in detail what is needed!

About: I have always loved animals. So I immediately applied myself at an Animal Hospital after high school, assisting in dog/cat care(nail trims,baths, behavioral therapy) and surgery for 7 years. In addition, I worked as a bather for Pet Smart grooming. I was pet sitting before covid, but stopped when social distancing was put into place. Unfortunately, my best friend crossed the rainbow bridge, and I would like to cope by helping my community again with their pets. I will only be able Friday evenings, and weekends. Sometimes my schedule changes, so hopefully I can make adjustments if possible. I currently work full time in Detroit, packaging wound ointment called HoneyCure, for dogs, cats, and horses. Depending of the dynamic, I will utilize a loop leash for added safety when walking your dog or taking potty breaks. I live an apartment, so dogs the weigh 20Ibs or under are welcome. I am willing to drive though, for pups who weigh more than 20Ibs. I am attentive when it comes to pet care because safety is important, so I will ask a lot of questions when meeting your dog or cat, and ask for written instructions on how you would like me to take care of your pet’s needs. I’m experienced with medication administration, and I have knack for a pet’s body language if they are feeling unwell or have behavioral issues.

“Molly watched our human society rescue dog and her six newborn puppies. She did a great job and treated Lola and her pups like they were her own dogs. Molly has such a calming disposition and was so kind we knew the dogs were in the perfect hands for the day. She sent pics and updates during our time away. We would definitely use her again!!”


About: Although I would consider myself a cat person, I find taking care of animals something that allows me to do my part in making sure they live happy and fulfilled lives I’m currently working part time at Jo Ann fabrics and looking to earn a little extra income on the side, pet care is something I would make accommodations for considering my current schedule at work! I would make sure to have devoted time to each animal entrusted in my care, ensuring that all of their needs are met such as, bathroom breaks, litter box cleaning, and daily water and food supplied.

“Gabby is Great. She has stayed with my pup at my home several times this year, while I travel for work. She always takes great care of him. Lots of snuggling, play time, and she’s great about sending me updates. I trust her with my pup and my house, which is a huge relief while I’m away. I highly recommend Gabby to anyone.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, gaining responsibility and accountability for their needs and making sure they are in a loved home. I’ve also have watched other friends, family and roommates pets as well. I have a little one of my own that I’ve bonded with for 4 years!! I’m in the process of switching jobs so I should have open availability for the whole week! When my new job takes place I should have a better idea but I’m open all week for now! My apartment is pet friendly, I’m not far from a dog park and love to go on trails so your furry friend will be able to get the exercise they need! I pay extra attention to their emotional and physical needs to make sure they are taken care of!

“Lizz was wonderful! We left both our dog and cat in her care, and we didn’t worry a bit if they were in good hands. Our dog Oliver had epilepsy and required twice daily medication. Lizz made sure he didn’t miss a dose! She sent us pictures throughout the week, knowing how much we missed them. We will absolutely be booking Lizz again, thank you Lizz!!”


About: Hello, Im 18 years old, and just recently graduated hugh school. I am looking for a fun way to make money before I leave for college! Ive grown up taking care of dogs, and been around dogs since I was born. Ive always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I enjoy taking them for walks and watching them whenever needed. I cannot watch the dogs at my house, because my own dog isn’t friendly to other dogs, but i would be willing to come to you and dog sit/watch your dog whenever I am available to do so! I work in the mornings, but I am willing to get up early to let the dog out, and after work I would love to walk dogs! I also love working out, so taking your dog for a walk/run will fit perfectly with my schedule. I have a dog of my own, and I love teaching her new tricks and just taking care of her. If your dog doesn’t know very many tricks I would be willing to teach them simple things like sit and shake. I am available to walk your dogs as well!

“Deanne did a great job with my pup and cat while my boyfriend and I were out of time. She was wry flexible with our changing schedule and accommodated our requests for staying the night with them.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and owner, with experience caring for pups from childhood through adulthood. My partner and I currently have a 3-year-old Australian Cattle Dog/Beagle mix who keeps us busy with her high energy and curiosity. I’ve trained all of my dogs in basic commands such as sit, stay, and fetch, and I’d be happy to integrate these into my playtime with your pup. I understand the importance of structure, exercise, and love in a dog’s routine, and I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable care to ensure your furry friend is happy and safe while you’re away. During COVID, I worked as a dog walker for a close friend, which gave me firsthand experience with drop-ins and daily walks. I know how to structure visits to include 30-40 minutes of walking, playtime, feeding, treats, water, and—most importantly—lots of love and attention for your pet. In addition, I frequently care for my parents’ 7-year-old black Lab mix, who plays well with my own dog. I’m experienced in handling multiple dogs at once, including walking them together safely and ensuring they’re both happy and well-exercised. I believe in clear communication and will always ask for detailed instructions about your pet’s routine. Written directions are required for clarity—for example, specific playtimes, treat schedules, preferred walking routes, emergency contacts, and the location of the nearest vet hospital. All of these details will be thoroughly discussed during our first introduction, ensuring your pet gets the personalized care they deserve. I work full-time but have flexible hours, allowing me to do drop-ins during the day for potty breaks, playtime, or walks. My weekends are usually wide open, and I’m also available for overnight stays any day of the week or weekend. Your pet will receive the same love and attention as my own while I’m with them. They will never be left out of my sight, and I will ensure I’m familiar with the nearest pet hospital in case of an emergency. You will be kept informed from the moment I meet your pet until I leave, with regular updates to ensure you feel comfortable and confident in their care.

About: I am a career educator that loves animals. Yo can feel at ease knowing I am someone you can trust to take care of your pets and your home! I look forward to meeting you! I am a full time educator, but I am available in the early mornings and evenings! If your home is in close proximity, I can do a mid-day drop in as well! I am available to visit, take walks and bathroom breaks. Also available for playtime with your pup/pups. Feeding times according to Mom and or Dad's instructions of course!

About: I love to walk and jog with dogs. They actually motivate me!! I even love to snuggle dogs or cats if they would like! Animals are good for the soul! I am pretty flexible with my schedule and what care I can offer you and your fur babies. I live in Marine City. I work Monday- Friday till about 4pm, so any thing after that and weekends I'm available! I can administer medication also if needed. If you are on vacation, I can send you all kinds of pictures so you don't miss them as much! We can even do a video chat so you know they are being cared for. Thank you for your time! Any time after 4 during the week and anytime on the weekends and your home or mine!! Let’s see what we are able to work out!! I have 2 small friendly and loving chihuahuas.
