Dog Sitting Allen Park

About: I am an attorney with dozens of years of experience caring for my own dogs and pet sitting for friends and family! I have a shih tzu, pug, king charles spaniel, and a canary :). I would love to give your pets the same love! I am currently flexible with my schedule because I work remotely from home most days, so I am free for walks, visits, and overnights as needed. I definitely will leave your home clean and tidy. I care for pets by making sure they have plenty of food and water, taking them out to the bathroom regularly, and allowing them time to exercise and play.

“Caitie was excellent. She provided me with excellent updates with a photo on how my little poodle was doing as she completed her visits. She was very thoughtful with getting to know my little dog, who is cautious around new people. I will be having Caitie back next month!”

About: As a lifelong pet parent, I know that your pets aren't just animals. They are family. I spent 18 beautiful years caring for my beloved Chihuahua and 13 years with my wonderful gray tabby cat. Loving them through every stage of their lives gave me deep, firsthand experience with senior pet care, strict feeding schedules, and the patience required for both small dogs and sensitive cats. In addition to raising my own pets, I am the go-to sitter for friends and family whenever they need a reliable hand. I specialize in evening walks and dinner-time drop-ins, making sure your pets get their energy out, their bellies filled, and plenty of love while you are at work, out for the evening, or out of town. I pride myself on being attentive, communicative, and treating every pet I visit with the exact same care I gave my own. My full-time workday wraps up on the East Side of Detroit, meaning I hit the road and am ready to care for your pets by 5:30 PM, Monday through Friday! Whether you are a commuter stuck in traffic, working late, or enjoying a night out, I am perfectly positioned to step in right as your workday ends. While my Saturdays are reserved for family time, my Sundays are completely open for extended walks and daytime drop-ins. Best of all? Since I don't have any pets of my own right now, my home is quiet, and 100% of my energy, love, and attention is saved exclusively for your furry family members during our visits. Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities. Because I focus exclusively on in-home visits and neighborhood walks, my entire attention is locked onto your pet and their immediate environment. When conducting drop-ins and walks, I follow a strict safety protocol: • Gear Checks: Before we even step out the door, I double-check that all collars, harnesses, and leashes are perfectly snug, secure, and escape-proof. • Proactive Awareness: During walks, I am highly vigilant and constantly scan the environment. I proactively watch for other dogs, wildlife, or triggers to prevent stressful face-to-face interactions entirely. • Real-Time Photo Updates: I know how tough it is to be away from your pets, so I always send plenty of photos and a quick update during our visit. You'll get peace of mind seeing their happy face and knowing they are safe, fed, and having fun. • Respectful In-Home Care: Inside your home, I strictly follow your house rules, ensure doors are securely locked behind me, and make sure your pet is safely settled, fed, and comfortable before I leave.

About: I absolutely love pets. I have one and I only treat others like I want mine to be treated. I love to see them happy! I open to do overnights and weekends. I try to be flexible when it comes to scheduling and I'll accommodate to the best of my abilities. I have a very cozy home. I have a yard where they can go and exercise. Pets have freedom around the house so they can make themselves right at home!

About: I worked at an animal shelter for about a year and a half, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I became familiar with dogs’ and cats’ diets, learned how to understand their body language, and gained experience administering medications when needed. I’ve also owned dogs for most of my life and have always believed them to be incredibly loyal and loving companions. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary assistant program. Most of my classes are online, with the exception of Fridays, when I attend classes on campus. I am generally available Monday through Thursday for most of the day, as long as I am given advance notice. I am also available on weekends when needed, with advance notice. My pets at home are very spoiled, so I plan to treat your pets the same way! I always want to make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while they’re with me. I also enjoy going on trail walks or taking long walks in general, so I’d be happy to have some furry company along the way.

About: Starting 5 years ago, I began working in the pet care field as a kennel technician. I have now added veterinary assisting to my repertoire, going on 2 years. This abundance of nuanced experience has allowed me to effectively to care for all pets sick or well, young or old, and small or large! I am currently a full time vet technician, but I can definitely fit in pet-sitting, walk-ins, and or dog walks throughout the week. I usually am home for free time and love to keep busy so I have flexible availability. I usually let my dog free roam the house when we are winding down after a walk or fetch. Interaction is key to a healthy mindset for pets, so I try to entertain them as much as possible!

“Abby did a great job taking care of our two dogs, Milo and Lila, on the day of our wedding. We needed someone to drop in on them to let them outside and feed them, and she provided us with text updates for each of her visits which took the weight of worrying about them off our shoulders. We would 100% have Abby come watch our babies again.”

“Thanks so much for looking after the little fellas!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was 15. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and turtles, both as my own pets and for others. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, basic grooming, and following each pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, and I’m happy to adjust my care accordingly. I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away and can send lots of pictures and updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and loved! My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and extended stays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can provide frequent potty breaks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality and boundaries and make sure they feel comfortable with me. I’m experienced with administering medications, including subcutaneous fluids, and I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I love walking and running, I enjoy getting exercise and also love lying low and getting cuddles. Dogs are the best at doing all of these things and I thoroughly enjoy taking care of pups and making them as happy as possible! I am a full time student and caring for dogs is a great option for helping me stay on top of my school work and giving myself time to play with pups! I am able to accommodate staying active with the pups and also cuddling up with them. I am focused and very detail oriented which makes taking care of your pups easy! Helping pups to be their happiest makes me happy!

“Karley was great!”

About: Just like most people, I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. I wouldn’t know what life would be like without pups in the home! I work full time approximately 15 minutes from my home. During the summer, I play softball locally and bring the pups with me to games. I have a decent size fenced backyard! It provides the pups plenty of room to run and play. I live in a spacious home as well which provided them room to play and eat.

“Emily is awesome. She loves animals therefore she makes sure they are well taken care of. Will definitely use her services again in the future if available.”

About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pug and helping care for multiple cats over the years. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether it's playtime, walks, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I focus on giving pets the same level of care and attention they receive at home. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in caring and reliable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals and make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal schedule and providing them with attention, comfort, and consistency while their owners are away. Whether it's checking in on a cat, taking a dog for a walk, or providing overnight care, I'm committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. 🐾 I treat every pet like family and follow their routine as closely as possible. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or cuddles, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

About: I have grown up around dogs and have volunteered with the Detroit Dog Rescue, so I have had experience with a wide variety of dogs. Wherever you are with your dog (e.g. training programs) I will follow that--I do not want your dog's schedule or routine to get disrupted while you are away. I understand how to approach dogs, no matter the size. I am a Real Estate Agent, so my schedule is flexible and I can work from anywhere, so you’re dog or cat will get all the attention! We will go on walks, play, exercise, etc. I am comfortable working with animals of all sizes, various breeds, and all ages. I understand that pets are a part of a family and I want them to still feel that way when you are gone for the time period where I am watching them. I have administered insulin to a cat before, and other medications to dogs as well. I am a Realtor so I can work from home or leave your baby for the day while I go to the office. I do have some unplanned events for work, like showings and closings, but I will give him or her the best attention he or she needs! I will follow the rules you set for your fur baby. I will be sure to send you pictures, videos, and updates every day you're away.

“Aidan is amazing! She took care of our puppy leo while we were away at work and took such good care of him. She is very professional and communicative and made sure our little guy got lots of love. 10/10 recommend 😊”
