Cat Sitting in Burnips

“She took great care of our dog. Maggie was nervous in the beginning but Mandy was able to help her feel comfortable, which we saw in the picture updates she sent us. Great experience!”

“Aracely is the ultimate cat whisperer! This was our third time having her look after our home, and even for just a short visit, she continues to impress. Leaving a big pet family behind can be stressful, but knowing our six cats are in such great hands gives us total peace of mind. ​Aracely handles everyone’s individual quirks and needs like an absolute pro, ensuring they are not only well-fed but genuinely comfortable and content for the rest of the day. Every time we get back, everything is perfect and it’s clear our crew is happy and at ease. Huge shoutout to Aracely for taking such amazing care of them—we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Kailee stopped by a couple times to care for our dogs while we were away. She followed our instructions perfectly and sent photo updates. Thanks, Kailee!”

Diana M.

“Sarah did an excellent job with watching our three cats, one of whom has a list of medical issues. She handled everything well and sent us the best pictures and videos of our cats having their best life while we’re away on our own vacation. Will definitely book with her again!”

Laura W.

“She did great with our kitties. Even having to give on meds he does not appreciate.”

Jasmine D.

“Hawraa was really good with our pup Maisie and came daily, as promised, to let her out and play or walk her a bit. She sent pics and kept in good communication. Would recommend!”

Lisa R.

“Annette was great! She watched May for three weeks while I was on a business trip. She was very responsive and always sent lots of update photos. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”

Carl L.

“Marissa was very kind and timely with her drop-ins! She provided great pictures and was even kind enough to return after the booking ended to return my house keys. I would definitely book with her again in the future.”

“Allison was a great sitter and friend for Smitty for the three weeks we were out of town. There were many visits involved over this time period and Allison did a good job communicating with us about Smitty's various walks and play-times, what kind of mood he was in, whether he drank some water after play-time, and other info. She really cares about Smitty and enjoys the work. We highly recommend Allison!”

Craig W.

“Had Megan for a repeat service. She does an incredible job with a grumpy, antisocial cat. Megan is very responsive to communication and asks questions if necessary. Will be using her again for our next get away.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I grew up with dogs in the house constantly and always watching family, friends, and neighbors dogs! I am currently a stay at home mom to my sweet baby boy! So my schedule is very flexible as long as I can adjust around nap time. He would be tagging along for any visits or walks! I am very good at following directions to a T and keeping things clean and organized. I have cared for older animals that needed medications to younger ones that need extra attention!

About: I have loved, and adopted/fostered, animals my entire life. I adore taking care of them and making them happy, but I also have professional work experience to back it up! I have been pet-sitting for years, but have worked in the animal welfare field for years as well. I have worked at animal rescues as an animal care technician, veterinary assistant, and foster/volunteer manager, so my job has been to make animals happy all day. I would love to take care of your pet, whether that means pet-sitting, walking, etc. I am reliable and will make sure to send plenty of pictures and updates :) I work part-time, but if your pet requires someone who is home must of the day, I am happy to figure out a solution! When I am not working, I can dedicate the rest of my time to caring for your pet and making sure they are as comfortable and content as possible while you are away. If I am pet-sitting in your home, I’ll make sure to follow your furry family member’s routine so that they feel safe and comfortable! I have been pet-sitting in clients’ homes part-time for about 5 years and can provide references as well. If I am boarding your animals in my home, they are free to roam around as they please! I have a cozy guest room dedicated to my pet guests, where they can rest and unwind if they need a safe space to themselves.

“I will always choose Emily to watch my pet when I am out of town! She does a great job communicating throughout the process and sends me the best pictures. My cat loves her!”

“Matt did a great job checking in and keeping us informed. He was very accommodating when our flight was delayed”

“Ellie is great! She took care of my mother’s shy cat while she was with me for Mother’s Day. We assumed she’d not even see the cat but the cat took to her right away!”

Tim A.

“Karrie is a near neighbor who could walk to our home. Our dog liked her and she did just what we asked!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats through owning family pets and helping care for animals belonging to friends and relatives. As a pre-veterinary student at Grand Valley State University, I am passionate about animal health, safety, and well-being. I have also gained hands-on experience through veterinary shadowing, where I observed animal handling, patient care, and communication with pet owners. I am attentive to each pet's unique needs and committed to providing safe, reliable, and loving care while you are away. I currently have full availability for the summer and can provide flexible pet care throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. As a pre-veterinary student at Grand Valley State University, I enjoy spending time with animals and am excited to dedicate my summer to caring for pets. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, playtime, or companionship while you're away, I am committed to providing reliable, attentive, and loving care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide consistent and attentive care. Whether I am caring for your pet in your home or during a visit, I will follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household rules. As a pre-veterinary student with veterinary shadowing experience, I understand the importance of monitoring animal behavior and well-being. I strive to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while you are away.

“Emily was wonderful to work with and took great care of my cat while we were away. She made sure to send pictures frequently and was great with communication and updates. She played with our cat well and made sure that she got attention during visits. I would recommend!”

About: I've had pets since I was 14 yrs old. I have done the puppy stage to helping my senior dog at the end of her life. Your pet will be allowed on all the furniture. Cuddles are a must in my household. I am comfortable with giving medicine or any other treatment your pet may need while in my care. I work full time, but I am able to come home on my lunch break. I am avaible for long visits or short visits. I am very accomodating to your pets schedule and needs. I live in a townhouse. I do not have a fenced in yard, but they do have a small fenced in area for your dog to run around in. There is lots of room for long or short walks. I also live right next to The Ravines if you are comfortable with me taking your pet to the dog park.

About: I've been a part of a foster family for dogs of all ages since 2010 and will continue to do so even longer. The puppy litters I watched over the years have consisted of 4 puppies or less. The oldest "puppies" I've fostered were just about 6 months old but they are usually around 4 to 8 weeks. The oldest dogs I've watched were two small dogs: one was 16 years old and the other was 14 years old. Even before fostering, I watched and walked my neighbor's two dogs during all seasons. If she had not moved away, I would still be walking and caring for them now. I've always had a passion for dogs and my current dog, Ruby, is my second .
