Max was great with my German Shepherd, Breezy. My boy can be alot lol, and many people can't handle larger energetic breeds, but Max won him over and seemed to walk him with ease. Breezy was returned happy and tired, which was my goal while I was working. Communication with Max was positive and clear from the start. I recommend!

About: Hello, I'm Hadley! If you're looking for a reliable, friendly and animal-loving human to provide short-term care for your pets, I'm your girl! I've cared for both cats and dogs over the years since childhood, rarely living without having at least one in the house! I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages and temperaments. I also volunteered with the Michigan Animal Rescue League as a dog walker from 2023-2024 where I was trained in understanding various dog behaviors and how to provide a safe environment even in stressful situations. I am looking forward to putting my knowledge to use and providing excellent care for pets in my local area! Let's connect and schedule a complimentary meet-and-greet! I can't wait to meet your four-legged family! I work in the government sector and am starting a new full-time job later this year, making me available for your pet care needs nearly 24/7! Whether it's a drop-in or short-lengthy walk, I am excited to enrich your pets life while you're away! While I can't care for your pet in my home, I am a quick learner who will mold my time with your pet around your routine with them! You can trust me to treat your pet as one of my own and provide the utmost respect for your space.

About: As a long time pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your animals. I treat every pet in my care the same way I’d want mine to be treated—with patience, attention, and genuine love. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities—I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! A typical day with me is structured around your pet’s routine to keep them happy and stress-free. For walks and drop-in visits, I make sure your dog gets the right balance of exercise, love, and attention! During visits, I can also help with feeding, refreshing water, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure your pet feels safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m currently offering dog walking and in-home drop-in visits. I provide attentive, personalized care to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy at all times. Also, have experience with Seniors.

About: I have the patience to work with most breeds but the larger ones are my favorite. I’ve had or lived with pets my entire life and will care for yours like it’s my own. Walks, feedings, even baths if they’re up for it! I’m no dog specialist, just someone who genuinely enjoys they’re company. If your dog needs any accommodations (extra loving!) I’ll do my best to meet your expectation. I understand trusting a stranger with your pet can be unnerving but I promise to provide the best service I can. Your dog won’t even know you’re gone! But hey no pressure, choose what’s best for you and your pet. Whether that’s me or someone else, if you’re happy I’m happy. But hopefully you choose me! I’m moving back to Michigan this summer and will not start my full-time position until August. So I have a pretty flexible schedule until then and I would love to fill my time loving on some fluffy babies! I will care for your pet in your home and do all that you have instructed. I know it could be a little stressful to leave your dog and they may worry, but I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and at ease.

Jenna is fantastic! We’ve had her watch our pets twice now and she is so caring, super communicative and thoughtful. She treats them as if they were her own & we even had some concerns with our puppy Ruby due to recent health issues and she went above and beyond to make sure that Ruby got extra walks and attention while we were away. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Lizzi was amazing! I had an injury to my leg and could not walk my almost 8 month old German Shepherd for three days. Lizzi took such great care of Maverick. She came two times a day to walk Maverick and he loved her. She is professional and very knowledgeable about dog training and her confidence was there too which made me feel at ease right away. I would definitely hire Lizzi again. She was a life saver for me.

About: I would love to watch your animals while you are away, take them on walks and/or play with them while you are at work! I have my own mutt, who is 6 or so, and my parents have a 9 year old mini labradoodle and they both love other dogs. If your pets get along with dogs I can include my pup on play dates and house sitting or I can leave her with my family, so we have just one on one time with your furry loved ones. I can also make sure your pet is bathed if needed and happy to help take them to vet appointments or grooming appointments if you would like. Does your dog love car rides? I’m happy to take them on car rides! I have been told I have an unique way of getting along with all dogs, no matter what the temperament, so please feel free to contact me for any of your pet care needs! View my pet sitting Instagram cocos_pet_sitting I work from 6:30 or 7 until about 2, I drive a lot of work so I can stop in for lunch most days. I’m always off sat-monday I treat your home as if it’s my own- honestly better than my own. I try to make sure the house is cleaner than it was when I arrived. I wash the linens, will give the pup a bath if necessary and can even go grocery shopping to make sure you have something to eat once you get back from your trip :)

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy being a calm, caring presence in their day—whether that’s for a visit, a walk, or time spent in my home. I work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. I have a friendly 20 lb doodle named Teddy, who’s great at reading other dogs. He’s happy to play or just relax, depending on what your dog prefers. I also have Violet, my sweet 12-year-old doodle, who has fully embraced her “retired lady” era and mostly spends her days napping in cozy spots around the house. At home, there’s a large, fully fenced yard with shady spots and plenty of space for fetch, sniffing, or lounging. I provide treats (with your approval), playtime, and lots of love. You’ll get photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing and what adventures they’ve been on. I’m always easy to reach if you want to check in. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and visits throughout the day, give pets consistent attention, and adjust timing based on their needs and your preferences. I make sure every pet has fresh water, a clean and comfortable space, and plenty of attention. After walks, I’ll dry off paws if it’s wet outside and check that they’re clean and settled. I follow your routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, playtime, and any specific instructions—so your pet feels relaxed, happy, and at home whether they’re with me or in your space.

About: I’m the type of sitter who sends updates, notices the little things, and genuinely enjoys spending time with all animals. I’ve cared for energetic pups, laid-back pups, and pups that are leaning toward that senior lifestyle, and I adjust my care style to match each pet. Whether it’s playtime, slow walks, or extra cuddles, your pet will get the thoughtful, loving care they deserve while you're away. I currently have a full-time job (M-F 8am-5pm) but am looking for lunch drop-in visits/walks on weekdays (anytime between 12pm-3pm). My weekends are pretty flexible (anytime between 10am-5pm both Saturday and Sunday). Weekends allow me to stay longer with your pup(s), if needed! Safety and comfort will forever be my top priorities. I carefully follow each pup's routine, including walks, feeding schedules, medication time, but if your pup has any silly quirks to their day-to-day (ex. my fur baby must have her food "microwaved" before each meal), I will happily add that to the list. I make sure gates, doors, and leashes are secure at all times and supervise your pup(s) closely. I always provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where your pups feel relaxed, safe, and cared for.

About: I've raised and cared for my baby dog Lola also known as lolanaptimepartygirl since I was 10, pets have always played a very important role in my life. I love animals of all kinds and ages having 4 senior dogs of my own. I believe all animals deserve love and respect as they are not only friends but family, and it is truly an honor to get to exist in a world where we are able to connect with and care for such beautiful kind creatures. I work a part time job that's pretty flexible so I'm relatively available whenever. My schedule changes weekly so just let me know what you need and I'll make it work! I have a fenced in yard and gates that are available to be set up throughout the house. I am also able to crate your pet if needed.
