Rachel and Ivan were incredible hosts and took such good care of our dog. They were very flexible when our travel plans got delayed and sent us updates while we were gone. Will definitely have our pup stay with them again!

Michelle was so sweet to our elderly blind terrier. She was understanding of his special needs and medications. She was also very flexible with our schedule. Michelle is a great sitter and we will use her whenever our schedules mesh.

Sara took amazing care of our boy! We got lots of photos and updates. Maverick had a fantastic time playing with George, their golden. She has a fenced in yard and property for the dogs to run.

Roxanne was great and Daisy loved staying there and playing with her dog, Bella! Bella seems like the most gentle and happy pup that can be friends with everyone. Roxanne took a great care of Daisy, sent a lot of pics and updates and was very flexible and helpful. We are so happy and thankful Daisy had a great time and made some new friends!

We left our 10 month old Pippin with Kimberly and Jeremy for a long weekend and were so happy we chose them! Kimberly sent us pictures and Pippin made himself right at home immediately. From the pictures sent to us, he might have had a better weekend than his humans! Thanks so much!

Lindsay was absolutely fabulous! Our daughter’s wedding was on this day and she stayed with our two dogs at the resort during all of the wedding festivities. She even brought the dogs over for pictures after the ceremony. 5 stars and two huge thumbs up!! If we are ever in that area of Michigan again and need a sitter for our dogs, Lindsey will be the person to call :)

Caroline was great with communicating. We were greatly appreciative of her welcoming Bentley to stay last minute, seeing our other boarder had to back out due to a family emergency. Bentley seemed to enjoy his time there. He had one behavior problem that was very unusual for him, but Caroline was open and honest about what happened. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Bentley with her again.

Pam did an amazing job taking care of Noodles while I was away. Noodles felt right at home with Pam and her husband. She was an excellent communicator and sent Noodles updates throughout my trip. I would definitely recommend Pam to watch over your fur baby while you are away.

About: I have a strong passion for caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and patience I give to each pet. I take the time to understand their personalities, routines, and needs so they feel as relaxed as possible. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who are still learning routines and basic training, and I’m also gentle and attentive with senior pets who may need extra patience, slower walks, or medication reminders. I treat every pet like they are my own and always make sure they receive plenty of love, playtime, and care Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I make time throughout my day for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets are happy and comfortable. I’m organized and good at following routines, so I can easily stick to each pet’s normal schedule for meals, potty breaks, exercise, and any special care they need. I enjoy being around animals, so caring for them is something I genuinely look forward to and make a priority in my weekly routine When caring for pets, I adapt to their needs and the environment—whether in my home or the client’s. In a client’s home, I follow their established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications, making sure their pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar space. In my own home, I create a calm and loving environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment activities to keep pets happy and stimulated. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, ensuring they feel loved, secure, and cared for at all times, while keeping their safety and well-being my top priority.

I felt like Maggie went above and beyond to make sure my dog was well taken care of while we were away. I loved receiving regular updates and adorable photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear that Maggie is a true animal lover, and our dog felt at home. I recommend Maggie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
