About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — from loyal childhood pets to rescuing animals in need. They’re more than companions to me; they’re family, healers, and honestly, some days I connect with them better than most humans. I understand their need for routine, comfort, patience, and love — the same values I bring from years of childcare experience. As someone who has cared for children professionally, I’m calm under pressure, intuitive to nonverbal cues, and deeply reliable. I know how to create safe, engaging environments, and that carries over naturally to how I care for pets. Whether it’s an energetic pup, an anxious rescue, or a senior dog who just needs a gentle walk and some TLC, I meet them where they’re at. Hi! I’m a college student currently doing my internship at Novi High School, working toward a career in school counseling. I’m also a stay-at-home dad, and in between my family life and my internship, I’m looking to care for pets this summer to fill my cup and earn some extra income doing something I truly love. Animals have always been a part of my life — I’ve had pets since I was a kid, including rescues — and they’ve been a constant source of comfort and joy. Caring for them is second nature to me, and I believe animals deserve the same kind of patience, consistency, and love that I bring to both parenting and working with students. If you’re looking for someone who’s responsible, grounded, and will treat your pet like family, I’d be honored to help. I provide attentive, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. For dogs, that means regular walks, playtime, and positive interaction to keep them happy and active — all while ensuring they’re safely leashed, hydrated, and secure in their environment. For cats, I focus on a calm, clean, and enriched space with fresh food and water, clean litter, and gentle affection on their terms. Whether it’s managing energy levels or giving space when needed, I always prioritize comfort, safety, and trust in every moment of care.

“Sarah was really good with my dog and sent phot and detailed descriptions of how everything went on the walks. She came to the rescue last minute and walked him for me while I was away on vacation. He did really good with her except for always trying to get his collar on!”

“Samantha is amazing, she never failed to send pictures and get plenty of exercise with my insanely hyper dog, he just loved her. In February of this year I got into a horrible accident and didn’t wake up for two days, I lived alone and my dog didn’t have anyone, I woke up in the ICU and Samantha was the first one I got a hold of knowing she had a key. She showed and saved my dogs life, my keys were lost in the accident and I had no way to get home. She safely got the key to my family and Obsidian is safe and healthy with me traveling across the United States and happier then ever. I couldn’t thank her enough for being that reliable. I don’t know what I would ever do without my boy.”


About: I recently lost my two beloved fur babies back-to-back due to old age, and our home feels so quiet without them. We miss the joy and companionship they brought every day, and would be honored to open our hearts and home to your pets. Working from home allows me to give them constant attention, with plenty of love, snuggles, and care—just as if they were my own. Hourly potty breaks, morning and evening walks, and lots of affection will be part of their daily routine here. Your furry family members will be treated like family in every way. I do work from home so I’m able to provide multiple breaks at all times of the day! If your pet is on a certain schedule please let me know. Your pup is my pup when in my care! They’re allowed to lounge on furniture and cuddle with me! They’ll feel right at home. Your pet will feel loved!

About: I have always been a dog and animal lover. I used to watch my neighbors’ dogs when they would go on vacation. I always had my own dog growing up- first a yellow lab mix and then an adorable little beagle. I have my own dog who is 9, Frankie, & I love to care for her. I have many years of experience volunteering at animal shelters and socializing dogs. When I lived in Seattle, I cared for a friend’s dog when she would be out of town on the weekends for work. I am available this summer to help care for your dogs because I’ll be studying for the bar (!) every day, so help give me a break from studying. 🤪 My sweet girl is pretty low energy and loves to hang out in the back yard, so she is pretty low maintenance, but of course I love to just hang out with her and care for her. I’m excited to hear back and have the opportunity to interact with some great dogs! I have experience caring for puppies, high-energy dogs, low-energy dogs, on-leash reactive dogs, senior dogs, and many breeds and sizes.

He’s aware of her habits, her unique traits, and what makes her feel secure and joyful. From adhering to her feeding schedule to ensuring she enjoys her preferred walking path and providing her with the affection she craves while I’m gone, he consistently exceeds my expectations.

Pamela C.
“Don’t look any further for a more loving pet sitter. Pamela has watched our Sailor several times (many overnight stays) and to our joy, she treats him as though he were her own pet. Whenever we drop Sailor off, he is excited to see her which is very comforting. Our dog Sailor has a few “needy” quirks that Pamela understood from the very first visit. I have seen her with other animals and she treats them all with the love and patience you would want for your pet. Trust me, you and your pet will love her! ❤️”

“Khadijah better known as Deedee has cared for my dog Bella for 12 years. I wouldn't trust anyone else with her. Definitely not a kennel. She gives her the attention she needs and demands. Bella is high energy and loves to cuddle as offen as she can. Khadijah takes the time out to play with her, take her for walks with her dogs and she also have a stroller for the ones that gets tired lol. If she gets dirty I would never know because bella comes home clean every time. If you are concerning her for this position, you should hire her because she cares for other dogs as if they were her own.”
