Dog Walkers in Anchor Bay Harbor, MI

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, as well as fish. I have most experience with large bully breeds. I had a black Labrador/Chow mix and English Mastiff growing up. I unfortunately recently lost my 13yr old American Bulldog in November of 2023, and 10 yr old Pitbull in May 2024 to cancer. We had both girls since they were pups so it was an huge devastation to our family. We currently have our 10 yr old Calico cat that was raised with them since a kitten. I have dog sat for friends and family as well in the past. I have experience giving oral medications and supplements if needed. I know how hard it is to work full-time and still have time to give the love and attention to your dogs that you want for them. I know many people have a hard time trusting doggy daycare with other strange dogs and the little one on one time they receive with handlers. I can give you the peace of mind knowing your pet is being well taken care of and receiving all the love and attention they deserve. I currently work part time from home. I am usually available Monday - Thursday after 2pm, and open availability on the weekends depending on my son’s sports schedule or vacations planned. Your pets will receive a lot of attention and love along with any necessary needs. I am in good physical condition and can lift or handle strong, heavy dogs as well.

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.

About: I love all animals but I have lots of experience with dogs. I have helped my family and friends take care of their dogs since I was 13. They trusted me to stay with their pets overnight, drop in and visit them and let them out, and just play with them or walk them. Every person has trusted me multiple times, allowing me to help out again! I am at home working a waitressing job as well so my hours will fluctuate but they will always be available from 6-9 a.m. on the week days and all day Sunday Unfortunately I cannot house dogs because I am in my parents house but I am able to drive somewhere close to give your dog a walk.

“Lauren is great. I had already booked Lauren to come on a specific day where both my husband and I work long hours. On this day, my chronic illness appeared which sometimes keeps me bedridden so Lauren kept the appointment anyway and walked Mabel. I felt such relief because I feel guilty about not giving Mabel the outdoor time and exercise that she needs when I become ill. Lauren is so dependable and Mabel clearly enjoys her.”

“Courtney did a fantastic job with my boys. I had a family emergency out of town and she was reliable and efficient. The boys liked her pretty quickly too! My pup decided to demolish a box of Kleenex while I was away and Courtney cleaned it all up for me too! I will definitely have Courtney watch the boys again in the future! She is a little angel!

About: Hi, I’m Maddy! I’m a reliable and responsible pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping your pup company, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and routine. I take the time to follow your instructions closely so your dog’s schedule stays consistent. My goal is to make your dog feel happy, relaxed, and at ease—even when you’re not home. While I’ve had cats my entire life, I’ve spent many years caring for family dogs and dog-sitting regularly. Through that experience, I’ve become comfortable handling different temperaments and energy levels, and I’ve learned how to build trust quickly with new dogs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from pit bull mixes to mid-sized doodles to small Maltese. I’m confident working with a variety of breeds, whether they’re energetic and playful or more calm and relaxed. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your dog’s home. I also provide regular updates with plenty of photos of your pup, so you can feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands. Pet care fits easily into my routine right now because I have a lot of availability this summer. I’m only taking a few college classes, so my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, stick closely to their routines, and be available for walks, drop-in visits, or extended care throughout the week. I currently provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. During visits, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific needs your pet may have. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I also keep your home tidy and respect your space. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have had 4 cats, one little dog, and two Great Pyrenees growing up! I have also volunteered to take care of cats in a shelter where I fed them, cleaned the litter boxes, and played with them! I love animals and I am able to get along with them easily! I am currently finishing my senior year of high school! My afternoons are usually empty unless I am DoorDashing so my schedule is super flexible. I am also usually available on weekends! Currently I have two Great Pyrenees at home. They bark a lot and I am pretty good at controlling that. Though, I can’t usually take them on walks for that reason so I am excited to potentially start walking more. Feeding and cleaning up messes/accidents is no big deal for me!

“Mikayla walked our dog for 5 days. She was always on time and Enzo loved his walks. We would definitely recommend her and will be working with her for our future needs.”

“Bony was amazing!! I typically take my own dog for a walk every single day, she craves it! It’s honestly been too cold so we skipped a couple of days and I found myself in a pickle. So at the VERY last minute I messaged Bony and she saved us both!!! She was amazing, accommodating and I would’ve never guessed I was her first client as I found out right before she left. She showed up on time which was a blessing as my schedule was already super tight. I’m definitely getting ahold of Bony again very soon!!!”

About: I've taken care of pets since early high school. No dog is too big or small! From Schnauzers to Australian Shepherds, I love taking care of them all! I love meeting new dogs and seeing their unique personalities!🐾 I'm currently working part-time and in graduate school, so I have flexibility to play and hangout with your pups! I'm typically available in the mornings and early afternoons! When caring for your pups, I'll ensure the routine is tailored to your pup's routine! I like work with your schedule, whether it includes maintaining feeding schedules, providing exercise, administering medication, cleaning litter boxes, and most importantly, offering companionship. Safety is another very important piece that I uphold as a sitter!

About: I've had cats and dogs all my life. We have daily routines, vet visits to make sure shots and medications are up to date, and play times. I'm currently working full-time but I'm available in the evenings, weekends, and overnight stays to help you with all of your pets needs at this time. I'm more than be happy to provide the same safety and trust, as I do with my animals. We can go for walks, play time, and more.

About: I’ve always loved animals and owned dogs! I adopted my puppy from Puerto Rico 17 mos ago after seeing the homeless stray cat/ dog crisis while on vacation. He is my buddy and companion. I currently dog sit for family and friends. I have a pretty flexible schedule working from home so I can take breaks as needed. I feel lucky to be home with my pet every day. My home is near walking paths and parks to conveniently walk the dogs. I also have a large dog crate if needed. I typically walk my dog 2x per day.

About: I’ve taken care of my dog for years along with watching family members pets and neighbors. I’m the person they text first if they ever need someone to watch their pets. I can do any time over the weekends. I go to Central Michigan University, so any off time I have at school I can watch your pet. I try to make myself at home to make sure the pet is comfortable. Not being too loud. Bringing them everywhere with me. Treating them as if their my pet.

About: I love all animals! If they could talk I’d be in heaven. All pets are family. I’ve always been very protective of animals. I’ve had dogs, cats, turtles, chicks any animal I can care for. When I was 15 I started a small “business” taking in stray cats and dogs cleaning them up, getting them shots, ridding fleas and finding them forever homes. I recently moved from Michigan so I’d buy supplies for heated cat/dog homes outside for the ones I couldn’t take yet when it was cold out and my house was full. Knowing that I can give an animal some comfort and let them know they are loved means the world to me which is why I alway wanted to become a Vet. I currently am able to watch pets from 3pm to 7pm mon,Tues,wed,sat,Sun. I can watch your pet any time on Thursday and Friday. I am flexible I have a cage if needed but I wouldn’t typically cage any pets unless requested. I also have two cats of my own who vibe in their own room with the doors closed. I have feliway plug ins so your bestie will be calm and ready for the day.

About: I have three now grown boys. When my husband and I were married for 20 years, we decided every child should have a dog, so when our kids were 17, 14 and 11, we got an American Pit Bull Terrier, "Clarabelle". Our family loved that dog and worshipped the ground she walked on. We had her since was 6 weeks old. She lived a great life. Unfortunately, we had to put her down when she was 2 months short of 14 years old. We miss her so much, but one of our boys and his wife live out of state and we travel now, and can't have a dog full time, but I would love to care for your animals and give you the peace of mind that they are well taken care of. Since covid, I work remote in Macomb MI. I am a paralegal. I go into the office two days per week, usually Wednesday and Thursday. On those days I am available for walks/drop ins after 4 p.m. The rest of the time I am available full day. Use Code CRISTF38670 for $20 off your new bookings (must be new to Rover) I am very excited to come and be with your fur baby! It is important to me that your pet is safe and stress free. I would like to stay as close to their normal daily routine as possible, whatever that may be. I will provide your pet with tons of attention and love!
