About: I have taken care of dogs for years now. I am very hands-on with training my pups. I am very active and reliable. I like being up early and getting the day started. I have experience with very large breeds and tea cup breeds! At home I have a Bernese Mountain Dog puppy, and a German Shepherd. I enjoy all animals and animals usually love me. I do not mind the weather conditions of Michigan and have never called off from any job. I am good at communicating and if there is ever any issues I would ensure you know right away. I love other people’s animals like they are my own and would not have any issues with high maintenance, or dogs with medical needs. You will not be disappointed if you choose me to look after your fur babies. I’m currently a nursing student at Monroe County Community College, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m able to work around your pet’s needs. I have 2 rabbits that I care for daily, they are free-range and act just like cats! I always ensure my pups at home are getting the right amount of activity weather it is just throwing the ball or going for a run. I care for every pet like they’re my own, keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy while following their normal routine. I always make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean space, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to follow any special instructions or needs your pet may have. 🐾❤️ My student nurse experience helps with passing meds, giving injections, and everything in between for pets that’s need a little extra care!

About: Located in MONROE Hi, I grew up in a home that did dog boarding, I've literally been around this my whole life. I Foster rescue dogs. I can potty train, teach tricks, work on leash skills and door manners. I have toys treats and a big yard. My house is near the lake and we take them for walks multiple times a day. My neighbors are dog trainers or fellow pet lovers. If you need a safe place to keep your pup during work or over vacation we might be the right fit for you. I have an adopted Pitbull who is literally the friendliest dog in the entire world and great with other dogs. If your dog needs to be the only dog around our home might not be ideal. Just being honest. I want us both to have the best experience possible. Meet and greets are amazing to make sure we are on the same page and to make sure all parties involved get along as well. We only offer dog walks and drop ins locally as it's to costly to do that outside of the immediate area. If outside of the Monroe are please advise. My husband and I are both not working. We have all the free time to spend with your pet that you could want. We could do holidays weekends overnights. If there is something you'd like me to work on with your pup let me know! I have a large fenced in back yard in a dog friendly beach community. We take our dog on morning and evening walks with the addition of play time in the yard or inside if it's raining. We have treats toys and space to relax. I have toys for multiple chewing needs - super chewers or tiny nibbles. I have lots of free time and just want to help where I can.

About: What sets me apart is how much genuine love and care I have for animals. I don’t see pet sitting as just a job—I truly enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m very attentive to their individual personalities and needs, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I work a part-time job with a flexible schedule that changes from week to week. This gives me plenty of time to provide your pets with the attention, love, cuddles, and companionship they deserve. I am a huge animal lover and will always make sure your pets are cared for properly and treated with kindness. I am gentle, patient, and comfortable around all types of animals. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority, and I would never intentionally put an animal in harm’s way

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs since I was a child. Each dog is the best dog and deserves the entire world. I will treat yours as if they are my own. They are precious and incredible creatures that we should cherish. I’ve fostered and cared for dogs from puppies to elderly dogs with significant health issues and loved them all. I work part time so I am flexible and happy to spend time with your creature friends whenever is convenient. Just let me know what times are best and we will work it out. I am happy to follow all house rules and care for your dog in whatever way you would like me to. Walks and playtime are always a joy.

About: Hi, my names Madison! I am 24 years old. My fiancée & I own a house in Newport & we would love to open it up for dog sitting during the days of the week that I am home! I have experience caring for cats and dogs of various ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and happy to follow any special instructions regarding medications, feeding schedules, exercise routines, or other unique needs. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you & your pets soon 💕 I’m currently working full time but will go remote in September 2-3 days a week so I am looking for something fun to do that will occupy my time while I am home :) We also have 2 cats that we love with our entire hearts 🫶🏼 My boyfriend & I have fostered through a local rescue and have had 5 foster dogs so we treat them as they are our own when they come into our home. They get lots of love, food, walks and attention before they go off to their new home ! I will do the same for your pup 💕 My boyfriend currently works full time out of the house so care will primarily be with myself during the day & evening!

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
