Dog Walkers in Cascade, MI

“Ariel’s the best! She made sure my shy pup got comfortable with her before talking her on a walk, gave her her medications and took her on nice long walks. Highly recommend Ariel, a kind, caring sitter!”

Emily S.

“Valaria is great with our puppy! She is definitely a dog lover and updates me after each visit! We are so happy we found her and highly recommend her to everyone!”

“Very happy I hired Timothy to walk our two huskies while out of town for four nights. I have never done it before because huskies can be a handful and I never trusted anyone else to walk my dogs, including my normal pet sitter, because of how strong and unpredictable my dogs are. But, I knew our youngest would go absolutely insane without any daily enrichment. Timothy showed up promptly each morning and provided a good report on each walk and some pictures showing the dogs panting, so I knew the walk tired them out, which was the whole point. I felt so much better knowing they were getting some exercise. Will definitely use the service again.”

About: First and foremost, your pet’s safety is our top priority. We’re fully insured through Pet Care Insurance, one of the leading pet sitter insurance providers in the United States. This means your dog is protected while in our care, giving you complete peace of mind. We believe every sitter should be properly insured, and we’re proud to meet that standard. We’re lifelong animal lovers who believe pets aren’t just animals; they’re family. My wife and I both grew up on farms where dogs were part of everyday life. Today, we’ve created our own animal oasis on 11 peaceful acres in Ada. Our property is home to two friendly dogs, two horses, two goats, and 17 chickens. It’s a calm, safe, and spacious environment with both fenced and open areas for running, sniffing, and exploring. It’s the perfect retreat for dogs who enjoy freedom and fresh air. We work from home and live a pet-focused lifestyle. I run a business from my home office, and my wife is here full time, so your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. Whether your pup is playful or shy, high-energy or laid back, we adapt to meet their needs. Every dog in our care receives patient, loving, and personalized attention. You’ll get daily photo updates and stories from their stay, so you always feel connected. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your dog like one of their own, with space to roam, a peaceful setting, and plenty of snuggles, we’d be honored to welcome them into our family. We are home most days. I work from home and my wife is a world class stay at home mom. Our kids are at home learners as well We know how much your dog means to you, and we take that responsibility seriously. Every dog is unique, and we treat each one with the same patience, kindness, and attention we give our own pets. From the moment they arrive, your dog becomes part of our pack and part of our family. You’ll receive daily updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing. Whether it’s a sunny nap in the grass or a tail wagging walk around the property, we want you to feel connected and confident that your dog is safe, loved, and thriving. Their comfort is our top priority, and we’re here to provide a calm, caring space where they can feel secure, relaxed, and right at home.

About: I grew up with dogs and fish in my home. Since moving out and not being able to financially care for a pet, I thought I’d offer to watch and care for yours when you’re unavailable. I work full-time at a hospital so I will be offering my services on days I have off from there, where I work as a registered respiratory therapist. I am willing to stay in your home during the days I work if you are out of town. The only thing to be aware of is that my shifts are 12 hours long. I’m willing to stay in your home with your pet when you’re away from home and follow any schedules you may have for your pet.

About: I have years of experience caring for animals, from dogs to cats & rabbits. Pet care is an area that I am thrilled to be now pursuing on a higher level. Animals have captured my heart for years, and this is something that will not change now or in the future. I am someone who pays attention to details and always has animal welfare at the forefront of my mind. I do not doubt that I am someone to be trusted with your animals. I look forward to potentially working with you! I am fortunate in that I have a fairly flexible routine currently. This allows for pet care jobs and responsibilities to be easier to take on. I am happy to watch your animals in your home if all checks out. What might it look like? I could stop by once or twice a day (‘depending) to make sure your pet(s) are well and everything is running smoothly. For example, I just wrapped up pet sitting for someone I know in the area & she gave me a spare key for her place. This is just what made sense & what she was comfortable with at the time. She left some realistic instructions for me & all went well. It was a win-win situation. You just need help with dog walking? I am happy to consider that as well!

“Jaqelynn was friendly, reliable, and great with Roscoe. She made sure to get him the maximum amount of exercise, sniffs, and potty breaks on every walk. She also reinforced our training. Would definitely hire her again. Thank you!”

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by a variety of animals, from chickens to horses, which sparked my love for animals at an early age. In high school, I became a Certified Veterinary Assistant, completing 400 hours of hands-on shadowing experience with veterinarians. While I no longer work professionally with animals, I’ve spent the last 10 years caring for my cat, who sadly passed away in February from an intestinal lipoma. This personal experience has deepened my understanding of the bond we share with our pets and the care they require. I’m passionate about providing the same level of love and attention to every pet I care for. I currently live and work in the Grand Rapids area and serve clients within a 6-mile radius between my home and workplace. For house sitting bookings: My services include overnight care, meaning I’ll stay in your home in the evenings through the next morning, providing your pets with company, meals, potty breaks, and lots of love. I may also be able to stop by once during the day (between 11am-2pm) for a check-in, depending on my schedule. If your pet needs mid-day walks or more daytime companionship, I recommend booking an additional drop-in visit or messaging me about a custom plan. This helps me ensure your pet gets the care they need while I manage my full-time job schedule. I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and keeping pets (and homes!) in good hands. I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates at your preferred frequency, and treat your pets like they’re my own. As a former pet owner, I understand how important it is to maintain structure, routine, and enrichment for your pets while you're away. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for friends and family’s pets and homes, providing peace of mind knowing that their animals are in safe, trusted hands. I always ensure that pets have their regular meals, exercise, and playtime, and I love finding ways to enrich their environment—whether it’s offering new toys, interactive activities, or even sticking to a favorite daily walk. In addition to caring for your pets, I also take great care in looking after your home. Whether it’s collecting mail, watering plants, or keeping everything secure, I treat your home with the same respect as my own. I know that trust and safety are crucial, so you can feel confident that your pets and home are being cared for in a way that aligns with your routine and expectations. My goal is to provide a smooth, stress-free experience for both you and your pets.

“Rachel was very sweet and did a great job with my energetic puppy!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid, helping friends, family, and neighbors with everything from walking and feeding to playtime and grooming. Over the past few years, I’ve gained more professional experience by pet sitting regularly and handling animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable giving medications, following special routines, and providing lots of love and attention. I also have a cat of my own named Charlie, so I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member—I treat every pet like they’re my own. Right now until school starts my availability is completely open just get with me and I should be able to watch your loved ones at any time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my client’s home, I follow their routine closely—feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I keep the home tidy, give updates and photos, and make sure pets get plenty of attention. If I’m watching a pet in my own home, I provide a calm, clean space with lots of love, toys, and a cozy place to rest. I treat every animal with patience and care, just like I do with my own cat, Charlie.

“Best dog walker ever. Went behind and above to help out when I needed extended care for Missy. She saved the day for my family and it was very much appreciated!”

About: I’m an active mom who loves animals - I have a golden retriever who is 1.5 years old, so I am right in the middle of raising a dog! I believe that a healthy dog needs mental stimulation, exercise and snuggles! I’m currently working part-time as a substitute in childcare, so I’d love to add dog walking or care to my days! I am happy to spend time with dogs so that their parents can feel confident that they are cared for while they are away! I have a 1.5 year old golden retriever who LOVES other dogs, I also have two cats who tolerate him. I’d prefer to care for pets on their own home or on walks.

About: I'm Amanda, 27, a yoga instructor and a full time animal lover! Growing up, my sister and I used to save strays and find them better homes, sometimes we were lucky enough to convince our parents to keep them. I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up because our family is full of nurturing individuals. I have babysat and taken care of relatives and friends animals throughout the years and know that each animal needs a different type of care considering each one has a special characteristics that define them. I make sure they use the bathroom or are taken out every two-three hours. Walks are a must, knowing animals have a lot of energy that needs to be released. I have a mini Australian Shepherd, Ezra who is a 3 years old, and love other animals and cats. Speaking of cats, I have my 6 year old cat Veda as well. I currently work part time, so I will have a ton of time to play with the pups and/or cats. I have three dogs of my own that it’s a habit by now! I have a yard (fenced) and one other fur baby to keep them company! Fed twice a day and let out four times a day with surrounding nature for some hikes and walks to get the energy out!

About: Warning: your pet will be returned to you overly loved and cared for! My goal is to provide your dog lots of 1:1 time leaving them happy and you feeling confident. I have grown up with dogs my entire life. When my 16 year old Puggle crossed the rainbow bridge a couple years back, it was the first time in my life I was without a pet. While I’m not ready to bring another pet into our home full time, I would love the opportunity to love your fur baby just as if they were my own! I have experience with puppies through senior dogs. As a stay at home mom, I have flexibility to walk, play, and cuddle as needed! I have 3 young kids who are eager to give (an appropriate) amount of love to your fur baby. I have a fenced in backyard and gates throughout the house to provide adequate safety while still allowing for plenty of freedom. I am familiar with crates as well if that is something your pet is more comfortable with.

“Elizabeth is so wonderful!!! She is always on time and also consistently communicates with me during the walk. I truly enjoy her enthusiasm and how great she takes care of my fur baby. I'm so happy I found her!”

About: Hi! I'm Meaghan, a medical student at Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine with a lifelong passion for animal care. Before med school, I spent 4 years working in a veterinary clinic, gaining hands-on experience with pets of all kinds. I've been a trusted in-home pet sitter throughout college and medical school, offering services that go beyond basic care. With skills in medication administration, puppy training, and senior pet support, I provide safe, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to your pet's unique needs. As a medical student, my schedule varies between 4- to 8-hour shifts, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. On days I’m away longer, my husband—who works from home full-time—is always there to help. If a pet is used to having company around the clock, he stays with me to ensure they still get plenty of love, attention, and even a few extra walks during the day. Together, we make sure your pet never feels alone and always gets the care they’re used to. I typically care for pets in my clients' homes, as I find it helps keep them comfortable and stress-free by maintaining their normal routines. I treat your home as “home base” for your pet, sticking closely to their usual schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime. I'm also happy to take care of light household tasks like watering plants, taking out the trash, and bringing in the mail. My goal is always to ease your pet’s anxiety while you're away—and to leave your home even cleaner than I found it.

“Logan is very friendly and great with our Lab. Our dog immediately took to him and she is always very excited to see him. Logan does such a great job with her with walks and drop in visits. We will continue to use his services without a doubt!”
