House Sitting in Algonac

About: At age 5, I had the privilege of caring for a pot-bellied pig that my parents brought home. Soon after, I had convinced them to let Wilbur sleep in the kitchen, which is often where they'd find me sleeping, curled up with him as my pillow. Ever since, there hasn't been a time when I haven't had a rescue or stray. I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, puppy to senior. I don't believe in the saying that you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Picked up overtime? Low on dog food? No problem. Whatever your pet needs, I can help. Si lo prefiere, hablo español. My schedule is pretty flexible. I'm fine with short notice bookings, I'm available if you need to extend the timeframe. I typically do pet care visits anywhere from 8am-midnight but if necessary, we can work out an earlier or later visit. I know that it can be difficult trusting anyone else with your fur baby, but they're in good hands with me. We can go over routines, feeding schedules, and I'll gladly send pics and updates on our adventures. I have doggy seatbelts, portable water dishes. We can go to the park, take a walk around the neighborhood, your own yard, or even just a quick potty break. If you need someone to stop at the store for pet food, treats or something else, I can handle that too.

About: I’m a reliable and confident pet sitter. I love the days I get to spend with dogs, cats, and other animals. I have plenty of experience with animals with different temperaments, sizes, and medical issues. I understand each animal has its own routine. I am dedicated to following each animal's unique routine to make their days as stress free as possible. I have had dogs and rodents my entire life, but have plenty of experience with other animals such as cats, chickens, pigs, goats, horses, and fish. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your home. I share updates and photos daily. My ultimate goal is to provide your pets with the best care possible and for you to feel comfortable and confident when you are away from them. I pet sit full time. I am available every day of the week at anytime. I always do a house visit beforehand so your pet can become familiar with me. I understand each animal has its own routine.

“I can't recommend Mckenna enough. She took such wonderful care of my dog, Bear. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and professional, which gave me so much confidence leaving both my baby and my home in her care. She kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and lots of photos, which I truly appreciated. It meant the world to me and helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. It was clear that Bear was getting plenty of attention, love, and excellent care. Knowing he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for made it so much easier for us to enjoy our time away. Mckenna is genuinely one of the kindest people I've met, and her love for animals shines through in everything she does. She is such a sweet, genuine person, and I felt like I could trust her immediately. It's not always easy to leave your pet with someone else, but she made it effortless. I trusted her completely, and she exceeded all expectations. I am so grateful for the care she provided and would happily book with her again in the future. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. Highly recommend.”

“Bonnie is amazing. She took extra special care of our fur baby and our home. She went above and beyond. She sent pictures and texts assuring us that all was well. We would highly recommend Bonnie! We will definitely be booking with her again.”

“We can't say enough about Melissa. We were leaving during snow and ice for a long time planned vacation. Melissa made it to our home, took care of our pets and even went above and beyond to make sure we didn't worry while on vacation. She sent videos and pics daily, stayed in touch with us and we appreciate how happy our pets were. Thank you thank you thank you!”

“Breanna did a fantastic job caring for our three dogs. One of them had just undergone surgery and needed extra attention, including keeping her cone on and her bandaged leg clean, dry, and properly covered. Breanna handled it all with care and consistency. Our pups are also very energetic and can be a handful at times, but she managed them beautifully—even when a potty accident happened. She also did a great job making sure our indoor-only cat stayed safely inside and collected eggs from the chickens each day. We were truly grateful for her help!”

Alexzandra D.

“Khelsi was fantastic - highly communicative, prompt, and so warm and cuddly with the dogs. I also appreciated that she came through on short notice. We definitely hope to work with Khelsi again!”

Maggie D.

“Gabby was great. She hung out with my three dogs and two cats for several hours. They had only met her one time prior, so I wasn’t sure how they were going to respond. They were all cuddling in no time. I had total peace of mind while Gabby was here. She’s trustworthy and she kept me up-to-date with photos! It took me a long time to pull the trigger with Rover, I wish I would’ve done it sooner. Thank you Gabby!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals feels completely natural to me. From playful puppies and curious kittens to older pets who need extra patience and comfort, I’ve seen it all. Because I’ve lived with animals for as long as I can remember, I’m great at understanding their body language, routines, and what helps them feel safe. I know how to handle different personalities—shy, energetic, cuddly, or independent—and I always adjust to what each pet needs. I treat every pet like family, because that’s how I was raised to care for mine. Your pets will get the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. As a college student, pet care fits really well into my daily and weekly routine. I’m always looking for fun and meaningful ways to make money, and spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. Taking care of pets doesn’t feel like work to me—it’s something I look forward to. I’m used to building my schedule around classes and responsibilities, so I’m reliable with feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific routines a pet needs. Helping care for animals is a great balance to school life and something I’m happy to make time for! When I’m caring for pets—whether in my home or at a client’s—I always focus on safety, comfort, and consistency. I make sure pets are in a secure environment, keep doors and gates closed, and follow any routines or rules you already have in place. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, signals, and comfort levels so they feel safe around me. I keep their routines familiar—walks, feeding times, play, and quiet time—and I always keep a close eye on them to make sure they’re happy and relaxed. My goal is to create a calm, trusting environment where your pet feels cared for, understood, and completely safe while you’re away.

“We have a new puppy that we adopted that isn’t fully potty trained yet. Sarai actually stayed with her (and our older dog) while we were out at a party and did a great job. She was very punctual, friendly, and our dogs loved her. Thank you Sarai!”

“We are SO GLAD that we met Molly. She instantly bonded with our two dogs. We hired her to stay with them while we were out of town recently. Everything went really well. It was such a relief not having to worry about our pups. We will be hiring her again for our next trip and we highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve taken care of my family pats ever since I was young, always had dogs and cats, I love all of my pets and spending time with them, can’t wait to meet yours and all of their quirks!! I’m only busy one day a week right now, which is Sunday's. Obviously there are days that I’m busy with friends or family or babysitting, something along those lines :) I can’t bring any pets to my home, my pets are shy lol, but of course any special feeding requirements or any special requirements in general, I love to play, keeps me entertained to :)

“My boy is a high energy Vizsla & I’ve never left him with someone new so was a little nervous to leave him. Sarah exceeded my expectation! Had last minute meds she had to give him & last minute fence getting put up & she handled it all perfect. Pretty sure Boone likes her more than me now!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I currently have 2 big dogs and 6 cats at my home. I’ve pet sat for friends and family and sometimes I come over just to see their fur babies. I love going on walks with dogs but also snuggling up on the couch with my babies. I currently have a 8am-4pm job but it’s with family so they are very flexible if I need to leave and come back during the day. I’m currently enrolled in college online perusing a degree in marketing as well. I’m a very gentle person and I have a lot of respect for animals space. I don’t like to rush or make them feel threatened by me. I often however, hit it off very well with pets and love to play with them! I have tons of acres at my home so my dogs like to run free or on a leash if needed.

“Kailey is very reliable and my girls love her!”
