“Hannah is the BEST dog sitter we’ve ever worked with. She has a deep care for all dogs, and went above and beyond for our dog. Even though our dog gets very fearful with new people, Hannah’s patience and calm energy and willingness to spend time with our dog Gwynne to get to know her despite Gwynne’s issues, took away all of our anxieties and allowed us to have an unforgettable trip away without worry. One that we’ll never forget. If you are worried about finding someone to watch your fearful dog, look no further than Hannah.”

About: My whole life I’ve been around dogs and cats. I have a ferret take I consider my son. Animals are worth all the work that comes with them. I am currently unemployed but struggling to find a job so I have all the free time needed to spend with your fur baby or babies. I will keep a very close eye on the fur baby and follow them around and even cuddle them when it’s nap time. I only follow them around to make sure they stay out of trouble.

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.

“Maria did a great jobs. Hayden loved cuddling with her and she cleaned up after herself.”


“I was in need last minute for a dog sitter and Amy was very responsive. Titan my pup and I met with Amy prior to the reservation, and Amy was very kind, asked a lot of thoughtful questions and I could tell immediately was a huge animal lover! As for her services, she went over and beyond! From taking Titan on walks, Starbucks dates and long cuddles on the couch, I was afraid Titan’s heart was going to belong to someone else by the time I came back home. Setting all jokes aside, Amy was incredible, I will absolutely reach out to her in the future and would highly recommend her if anyone else is looking for someone to care for their pets.”

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. I have complete peace of mind knowing she's loved, taken care of, and relaxed in his presence.”
