Dog Walking Anchor Bay Shores

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.

“Excellent and reliable! Will continue to have her back when she’s available.”

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.

“Excellent dog walker! Patient and reliable. Goes above and beyond!”

“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!

“Maddie A. is an outstanding pet sitter. She provided exceptional care for Percy while I was away at a concert, keeping me updated with regular check-ins throughout the stay. She was incredibly professional, and it was clear that Percy was in great hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter.”

Mikie M.

“Christina was fantastic. Totally professional, normal, and clearly loves animals. We felt comfortable letting her in our home when we weren’t home and she was always letting us know when she finished walks. She sent lots of pics every day and gave us status reports. Will definitely be having her walk our dog again. Highly recommend!”

Ryan O.

“Lauren has been fantastic! We hired her at the beginning of this year for a few days a week to walk our Weimaraner. He’s a big puppy with a lot of energy and she has been amazing with him. She communicates with us on how his visits and walks go. She has been incredibly flexible with a few times we have even had to change our schedule around. We are so thankful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone needing her services.”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and dependable pet caregiver who truly loves working with animals. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler pace. I’m comfortable giving oral medications and always make sure pets stay on their regular routines. I love walking dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention during our time together. I also have experience caring for young kittens (as young as 8 weeks old) and helping with safe, gradual introductions between cats in multi-pet homes. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every animal I care for as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away! I currently work at a school and can be available before, during lunchtime for a brief check in, and anytime after. I will be off all summer and available any time of the day. My cats have routine feeding times with multiple water fountains throughout our home. They have multiple electronic toys to play with in addition to direct play time with me.

About: I have cared for animals ever since I was 10 years old. I’ve had small pets of my own, two dogs (a pit bull and a corgi) and my roommate owns two cats, as well. I have no allergies and have a smoke free home! I’m a teacher during the school year, so I’m just looking to keep some animals company this summer while on break! I’m currently part time in the summer, so I have a lot of time to stop in and care for animals or go for walks. I can do weekdays and weekends pretty much all times of the day. I live in an apartment, so when I walk my dog it has to be on a leash. I am happy to crate animals. I have a small cage for about a 30-35 lbs dog.

About: Although I've never owned a dog, I have watched plenty for my friends and family. I love caring for dogs because there is never a dull moment. I'm a big walker, and I love when I dog sit and get some company on my walks. I am currently a full time student, with most of my classes being in the late afternoon/ early evening. With that being said, most mornings I am available. Cats don't require quite the same amount of attention as dogs, so I can always stop in to check on them before and after my class during the evening if needed. I treat every home I care for — including my own — like a safe, calm space for pets. At my place, my four cats have a predictable routine with plenty of food, water, litter boxes, and quiet spaces to retreat to. I pay close attention to their behavior, making sure everyone is comfortable, calm, and happy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and respect the environment they’re used to. I keep their space tidy, maintain their usual routines, and ensure they have everything they need to feel safe — whether that’s food, water, clean litter boxes, or quiet corners to relax. I also observe interactions and personalities, adjusting my approach to match each pet’s comfort level. Updates and photos are part of my care so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and secure.

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!

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 grew up always having animals in the house so I’ve always connected really naturally with them and loved being around them. I’m an artist, so I have a pretty patient and calm personality, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, going on walks, playing, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. For friends, family, and some strangers, I have been someone to lean on when it came to checking on, playing with, or walking their fur babies! I workout consistently so I can always enjoy a good walk. I have a dog with a heart condition and took care of an elderly dog that I had my whole life so I can easily adapt to the environment each pup needs! I am currently a freelance graphic designer and photographer which allows for a lot of free time and a flexible schedule! My days consist of spending time outside, working out, and playing with my own fur babies! I have 2 dogs myself, a large shiloh shepherd and a pomeranian yorkie so I have experience walking and playing with both large and small dogs!

“Natalia was great and my dog loved her. She showed up on time everyday! Thank you Natalia!”
