Cat Sitting Caledonia

“After having a couple bad experiences with sitters and recently losing Mayhem's brother, I had a lot of feelings about hiring a new sitter. During our meet-and-greet, Michelle immediately sat down with Mayhem and started talking to him and brushing him. He does not warm up to new people easily, but she got him purring right away (albeit while being given a suspicious side-eye). For the booking, Michelle showed up right on time, followed Mayhem's intensive instructions, and took lots of time to love on him. I am very pleased with her service and look forward to having her back!”

“Sara was awesome; did everything we asked of her and more. She was not intimidated by our protective cats and we look forward to using her again in the future. I'm sure they will remember her (:”

About: I’ve taken care of every type of dog; pit bulls, poodles, doodles, labs, golden retrievers, Bernese Mt. I have cat sit experience as well. I currently have at home 3 dogs one is 2 and the other is 5 and the oldest one is 11. I have experience with senior dog care as well as administering medications and special food or diet restrictions. I look forward to taking care of your animal! Right now I am currently available everyday as I just completed my college degree. My schedule is open for house sitting, dog walking, or bathroom breaks. I offer a safe environment with other dogs to play with being my 3 dogs. I prefer watching your dogs overnight at your house, but possibly can make arrangements to stay at my house.

About: I have been a Pack Leader at The Indoor Dog Park and Daycare since March of this year, I am now looking for a more flexible way to work with animals. I am pursuing a Bachelor’s of Biology in hopes of working with animals someday. I have lots handling experience, as well as a deep understanding of animal behavior. Take a peek at my gallery to see some of my favorite pups!! Below are some skills I practiced at The Pack: -Supervised large play groups of 25+ dogs simultaneously, ensuring safe social interactions and preventing aggressive behaviors. -Monitored canine body language and group dynamics to intervene early and de-escalate potential scuffles or stress-related issues. -Implemented safety protocols and facility rules that maintained a 100% injury-free play environment across shifts. -Observed and recorded daily changes in animal appetite, behavior, and physical health, reporting concerns promptly to management and communicating daily report cards and behavioral updates to pet owners, building strong customer loyalty and trust. -Controlled intake and release procedures, verifying owner identification and vaccination records for every dog. -Maintained strict sanitation and hygiene standards by regularly disinfecting play yards, kennels, and shared equipment. My schedule is yet to be fully set, so just ask! Anytime might work! I currently am free for a good period of time most days. I am not currently offering pet sitting at my home as it is an apartment and I don’t like confining dogs to such a small, unknown space. In the future I am hoping to have a house in the country with a large yard for my animals!

“Really appreciated the feedback and attempts to make Ollie comfortable.”

“Kelley was absolutely wonderful! She came over beforehand to meet Koda, which gave me such peace of mind. She was incredibly reliable and kept me updated on when she would arrive and how each drop-in visit went. She spent time playing with Koda and sent me the sweetest pictures, which I loved receiving! She even went above and beyond by bringing in an Amazon package that had been delivered while I was away. I truly appreciated how thoughtful and dependable she was. I highly recommend Kelley and will definitely be using her again in the future! ❤️”

“My kitty struggled with me being gone this time around and Lauren still worked her magic and cheered him up. Lauren is reliable and does a great job every visit! So grateful to have her!”

About: I grew up with a chocolate lap and a cat. Taught my dog many tricks and the cat not so much haha. I currently have two cats of my own. I worked as a nurse tech for 5 yrs in the hospital setting and went to emt school as well. Currently in college for radiology tech school and just looking for a job I can do in my free time. I’m able to drop in multiple times a day. I’m very flexible and am up early in the morning and tend to stay up somewhat late. I have a fenced in yard that my upstairs neighbor would use for their dog. I keep an eye on my cats with a camera.

“Amelia took great care of our cats while we were gone. She tackled meds with ease and our cats were happy and healthy when we returned. She sent pictures and gave updates throughout our trip. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up caring for family pets and my now 9 month old Boxer. Since moving to Grand Rapids 8 years ago, I’ve regularly provided house-sitting and dog-sitting services for friends, family, and local pet owners. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to provide attentive, reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I love to take dogs on field trips to the dog park, on some fun hikes at some of the great parks West MI, and to grab a pup cup! Whether your pup is super active or more chill, I’m your girl. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home and have a dog of my own, so I’m accustomed to maintaining a consistent schedule of walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. Working remotely gives me the flexibility to provide frequent supervision and companionship, ensuring your pet receives plenty of care while you’re away. I understand how important routine is for pets and will do my best to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal schedule. Safety, trust and RELIABILITY are my top priorities when caring for pets. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before care begins. In a client’s home, I strive to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine and environment as closely as possible. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I keep a close eye on pets to ensure they’re safe and happy. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is being well cared for while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free experience where your pet feels comfortable, loved, and cared for at all times. 🐾

About: I grew up on a farm, surrounded by animals from the time I could walk. It taught me to read animal behavior instinctively: I can tell when a dog is anxious, overheated, or just needs a good sniff. I'm also animal CPR trained, so I'm prepared if an emergency ever happens. I love dogs, and I treat each one as an individual: their pace, their routine, their quirks. On every walk you can expect: • A photo and a quick update afterward • Careful, secure leash handling, and I double-check every gate and door • Fresh water and a paw wipe when needed • Your instructions followed exactly I'm punctual, I reply quickly, and I treat your home and keys with care. I'm happy to do a free meet and greet first so your dog and I can get comfortable. I keep my schedule limited so every dog gets my full attention. I keep my schedule limited so every pet gets my full attention, and I show up on time, every time. Message me early to lock in weekend and holiday spots. Your pet’s safety comes first on every walk. I'm animal CPR trained, I use secure leash handling, and I double-check every gate and door. I bring water along, send a photo and update after each walk, and treat your home and keys with care.
