“Lindsay was quick to reply when we picked u[ our new family member that needed potty breaks while we work. She's dependable and has been great caring for our almost 12 week old Golden St. Berdoodle. We are heading into week 3 using her services and plan to continue for a long time with her.”

“Carly is FABULOUS! She always leaves a detailed summary of her visits- which is huge with my senior dog and keeping track of bowel habits and tinkles. Carly walks with my girl in the yard and takes time for lots of pets. Carly pays attention to and adjusts for my dogs significant loss of hearing to avoid startling. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”

About: I have been working with people's furry family members on and off for about 10 years now. Aside from working in doggy daycare and boarding, I've cared for animals of friends and family throughout my life. Keeping animals well taken care of and well enriched is my specialty. I am also a certified dog trainer through Animal Behavior College. I am available for sitting, drop-ins, walks and training sessions. Please reach out so we can make your schedule work! Weekends or weekdays are always manageable. I have pet sat and worked in boarding/daycare facilities for years. There is almost no situation I couldn't accommodate. Whether it be special preferences you might have for your furry buddy or necessities like administering important medication, there is almost no situation I wouldn't be happy to oblige when taking care of your pet.

“Sarah did great with my cats! Her communication was top notch and she was very friendly! She even brought in my ups package that was delivered while I was away”

“We've found her to be very responsible.”

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was younger and I am a huge dog person! My family has always had dogs, we have two mastiffs right now, and I plan to have dogs for the rest of my life. I have been a sitter for many neighbors and extended family, and I worked at a dog boarder/daycare for three years. I’m currently working full time and am a full time grad student. I still regularly take care of others pets as needed. I am free during weekends. During the week, I can do morning, evening and night. I make sure they are fed, comfortable, and of course receiving attention. I give them plenty of time outside and pay attention to their needs. I also am able to break up a dog fight and check for any injuries.

“Hailey was an excellent caregiver for my beagle! She was friendly, thorough, and punctual. She gave me a lot of feedback from her visits, which was very reassuring. I HIGHLY recommend Hailey for pet care!”

About: I have always grown up with cats and dogs, since I was very small. I love taking my dogs for walks and playing with them! My availability is very flexible, I work short hours, early in the morning and I'm home by noon. I am also a student at Oakland University during the fall-spring but can stop by to check in between classes I prefer to stay at the clients home to keep the pets comfortable and used to their schedule. I love to go for walks and spend time playing outside!

About: I have been caring for dogs for more than 35 years and have owned several dogs throughout my life. I currently have a dog named Henry, who is a beloved member of my family. Living with and caring for dogs over the years have taught me. how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or patient care while you're away, I’ll treat them with the same kindness and attention I give to my own. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own dog, Henry, every day, so walks, feeding, playtime, and attention are built into my schedule. As a dog lover, I am always available to care for pets, provide a reliable service, companionship, exercise, and plenty of love for the pets I look after. As a part time teacher with summers off, I are very flexible! When caring for pets in a client's home, we follow the pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. We provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and lots of attention and affection. We also respect our clients' homes, keep them tidy, and provide updates so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

About: I’ve had dogs growing up my whole life. I originally downloaded this app when I didn’t have my own dog so I could still see and care for them on my off time. Until September rolled around and I now have the most sweetest little boy Remy ever. He makes me bad days good and loves every dog he’s ever met. From doberman, german shepherd, mini dachshund, other pit bulls and so many others! He loves children and just wants your full undivided attention! I want to continue spreading my love for pups I currently work full time. My schedule is during the weekends for you to be able to get away and be certain your babies are taken care of ❤️ I can also do evening check ins during the week. My dog is basically a human in my house. He sleeps with me under my blanket every night and loves to follow me around like a little shadow. I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I’m never alone.

“Nyteia was great with my kitties. I was out of town and so worried about them, but she did a great job communicating and taking care of them!”

About: I have 1 cat at home and my partner has 1 dog who basically acts like a cat, so I am looking for an excuse to be around dogs (preferably <25 lbs) who may need some company. Friends and family have entrusted me with their pets for years (both for walks and overnight stays) and I take that responsibility incredibly seriously. I have a full-time hybrid position that has me at home on Mondays and Fridays with some flexibility from Tuesday - Thursday. On days when I am in the office, I will be home before 4:30pm for any afternoon feeding times. I am also available on weekends with advanced notice. I have a large unfenced yard and live less than a block away from a dedicated dog park. I have one small dog (15 lbs) and one cat who are happy to keep your pet company or can be kept in a different part of the house depending on your needs.

About: I have had medium & large sized dog breeds my whole life, with a now 6 year old Australian Shepherd who requires all the energy! When he is distracted, I can then cater to my 5 amazing cats. I have experience with raising puppies & kittens, and will be available at any time of the day for your pet! I also have experience with small reptiles & snakes if additional care is needed while on trips. I am currently doing pet care full time! I plan on going back to college in Fall ‘27 for Film, and am looking to keep preoccupied until then. I love animals & would love to have some more fun in my schedule! I have experience as an EMT and handle high stress situations very well. I am aware of where all emergency vets are in the Clinton-Macomb area, and have no issue with crating when necessary. My goal is to return your pets to you safely and tired out!

About: I have been taking care of dogs since i was a baby. I used to treat not only my own but my friends as well as if they were my own child because they reciprocate the love. I am currently working part time from home because i am in school to get my forensic psychology degree and need some extra excitment around I have a spacious fenced yard and 2 dogs to keep your babies occupied. They both are small but get along with big dogs well.

About: I grew up with a dog until I went to college. In medical school and surgical residency I have been the go to person for pet sitting. While my schedule is too crazy for my own fur baby, dog sitting fills that void! As a surgical resident living in Royal Oak and working in Madison Heights/Warren. My schedule is sometimes flexible and sometimes I am stuck at the hospital more than not. For this reason I don’t have my own dog, but I have the time for sitting! I defer to the owner regarding crate use and furniture rules. I’m a big pet snuggler but want to ensure consistency in training and behavioral expectations.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for many years including child care at a young age, being there for an animal, child or human is my nature - it comes naturally! I have many skills but pet and child care is just who I am I would not consider it a skill :). Integrating Pet Care into My Daily Routine Caring for my pets is not just a responsibility; it’s a fulfilling part of my daily life that enriches my routine in numerous ways. Here’s how I seamlessly integrate pet care into my day: - Morning Routine Early Start: My day begins with a morning walk, allowing my dogs to stretch their legs and enjoy the fresh air. This not only keeps them healthy but also sets a positive tone for the day. Feeding Time: After our walk, I prepare nutritious meals tailored to each pet's dietary needs, ensuring they start their day with the right fuel. - Midday Check-Ins Playtime: If I’m home, I take breaks to engage in play sessions with my pets, providing them with mental stimulation and strengthening our bond. Quality Time: Whether it’s a quick cuddle or a game of fetch, these moments are vital for their emotional well-being and my own. - Evening Routine Family Time: In the evenings, my pets are an integral part of family activities. They join us for relaxation, watching TV, or even participating in quiet reading time, creating a sense of togetherness. Nightly Walks: Before bedtime, I make sure to take my dogs out for another walk, allowing them to unwind and enjoy the night air. Flexibility and Adaptation Adaptable Schedule: My routine is flexible enough to accommodate any special needs or unexpected situations, such as vet visits or grooming appointments, ensuring my pets receive the best care possible. Continuous Learning Ongoing Education: I dedicate time to learning about pet care, attending workshops, or reading articles to enhance my knowledge and stay updated on best practices. Incorporating pet care into my daily routine not only ensures my pets are happy and healthy but also brings immense joy and fulfillment to my life. Their companionship and the love we share motivate me to prioritize their needs, making every day a rewarding experience. Caring for pets, whether in my home or my client's homes, involves a comprehensive approach that prioritizes their well-being, safety, and happiness. Here’s how I ensure exceptional care: In My Home 1. Safe Environment: - I maintain a pet-friendly space, free from hazards such as toxic plants, chemicals, or small objects that could be ingested. - Designated areas for eating, sleeping, and playing are established to create a sense of security. 2. Routine Care: - Daily feeding schedules are adhered to, with meals tailored to meet the nutritional needs of each pet. - Regular grooming sessions help maintain their hygiene and comfort, including brushing, bathing, and nail trimming. 3. Exercise and Enrichment: - I provide ample opportunities for physical activity through walks, playtime, and interactive toys to keep pets engaged and healthy. - Mental stimulation is encouraged through puzzle toys and training sessions, fostering a strong bond and enhancing their skills. 4. Health Monitoring: - I keep a close eye on their behavior and health, noting any changes that may require veterinary attention. - Regular vet visits are scheduled for vaccinations, check-ups, and preventive care. In Client's Homes Personalized Care Plans: - Each pet receives a tailored care plan based on their specific needs, preferences, and routines as discussed with the owner. - I ensure that I follow the owner’s guidelines closely, maintaining consistency in care. Daily Routine Maintenance: - I replicate the pet's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, exercise, and playtime, to minimize stress during the owner's absence. - I provide regular updates to pet owners, sharing photos and notes about their pet's behavior and activities. Safety Precautions: - I ensure that the home environment is secure, checking for any potential hazards and keeping doors and gates closed. - Emergency contacts, including the owner’s vet, are kept handy in case of unforeseen situations. Companionship and Attention: - I dedicate quality time to each pet, providing companionship and attention to alleviate any feelings of loneliness. - Engaging in activities that the pet enjoys helps maintain their happiness and well-being. Post-Care Clean-Up: - After each care session, I ensure the home is tidy, cleaning up any pet-related messes and leaving the space as I found it.

“Brooklyn helped me out last minute and checked on our dog, Harlow twice. She sent pictures after each visit and left a great report card on Harlow’s behavior. I was really happy with Brooklyn’s services! I definitely will be contacting Brooklyn in the future!”
