House Sitting in Chaldean Town, Detroit

“If I could, I would give Richard 10 stars. We highly recommend him and are looking forward to booking him again in the future. Our boys loved spending time with him & were at ease with him the whole time.”

“Erin is great! She walks our Labrador weekly and stayed the night once as well. She’s reliable, friendly, kept our house clean, and our dog seems to enjoy his time with her. Erin has my recommendation!”

“Melisa did an excellent job of house-sitting our two dogs! She really went above and beyond to take care of them and the dogs absolutely loved her. We are very grateful and we will definitely hire her again!”

“Karley did a great job watching Beckett! We’ve never left him with someone on Rover before but she was very communicative and sent us lots of pictures. He also never eats when we’re gone, but he was eating within a day with her so she’s definitely doing something right!”

“Mason was a terrific sittter/companion/care-giver for our house and 80 lb dog Ringo. She was diligent and kept in touch. Ringo was in good hands w Mason’s vet experience as she handled a small scrap on his paw expertly and with love. The house was well kept and Ringo has a new good friend.”

“Lauren was great with our pups! She stayed for a few nights at our house, sent great updates, and gave our boys a lot of outside time. We felt so comfortable with Lauren! Would definitely recommend!”

“Kayla was awesome. She took great care of our two cats and our house. She’s a good communicator and and kept us informed during her stay. One of our cats requires medication three times a day, and Kayla didn’t flinch at this extra work. We’re grateful for her attentiveness and gladly recommend her without reservation.”

“Erin did a fantastic job caring for our two doggies while we were away for a few days. She kept us updated daily on how they were doing and sent photos every day. She also responded quickly to my messages. Riley and Jovie loved having her stay with them!”

“Maciyah was super accommodating and helpful when I had to book her last minute. And Duke seemed to really enjoy his stay. She sent tons of pictures and got him lots of walks. I highly recommend boarding with Maciyah.”

“2nd time was a charm! Cloud enjoys having Victoria over and I could tell he was a very happy pup once I came back! Victoria was always super responsive and especially patient when it came to my phone being stolen while on vacation. My only form of communication was the rover app and Victoria was quick to help me out with what I needed! My home was VERY CLEAN when I got back and I really appreciate how honest, caring, and loving Victoria has been with Cloud! Thank you so much again! <3”

About: 🏳️‍🌈 Ferndale local with two Malinois/Dutch shepherds I will take care of your dog(s) like they are my own! I have experience with reactive dog(s) and shelter dogs that have an unknown past. My approach is a positive, enrichment-full, no-fear and no-pain way. I understand that each dog is different and has different behaviors and a personality. I have two Belgian/Dutch shepherd mixes (think police dogs) (5 yr old and 10 month old) that came through a shelter and a volunteer rescue group. Over the last five years I have participated in all kinds of dog training classes and learned a lot about all different kinds of enrichment. I have walked neighbors' and friends' dogs of all sizes and petsitted anywhere between one to fourteen nights over the last few years. My style is to always be pain and fear free, positive reinforcement, respect the dogs space while helping them through stress by using different techniques like treat games, puzzles, sniffing exercises, tricks and physical training to work up to successful walks and calmer and more confident dogs. I'll assess your dog's level and work up with them to a walk that makes them happy. You can either tell me exactly what you want me to do or let me bring my games and toys with me. I'm really good at following instructions if you want things done in a particular way and I prefer clear communication, you won't offend me. I'm always in a positive mood and will always end my time with your dog on a good note. I have been an engineer for over twelve years with a passion for dogs the last five. My schedule and work location has changed and I have a lot more availability during the week. Weekends are available as well depending on the dates. I'm quite flexible for walks, drop-ins, enrichment play times and overnight stays. I can also be available on a very short notice on the same day once we have an established trust. If you are looking to board your dog(s) with me it is important that they are very friendly with other dogs, up-to-date vaccines, infectious-disease free and can be crated for short periods to give them some dedicated down time without my dogs in their business. (I do have two crates, one for medium and one for large sized dogs). I have a fenced yard and access to the Ferndale and Royal Oak dog park in case that's something your dog will be prepared for meeting other new dogs. Dogs ride in my SUV or compact car's trunk space that is prepared for their comfort and secures them from harmful injuries in case of a car crash. If you are interested in me walking your dog and/or doing drop-ins and your dog has shown aggressive behavior towards new people in the house, I would need to assess first and you'd have to introduce me properly so that the dog feels comfortable letting me inside the house. If I come to your house for pet sitting I will respect your home more than my own and be neat and clean and quiet. I'll try my very best to keep your baby as comfortable, happy and low-stressed as possible and will respect their boundaries. You can either tell me what you want me to exactly do and don't do, or give me space to bring some puzzles and enrichment games and creative ways to feed your doggo(s).

“Krisia was great, dogs loved her and was diligent in doing everything we asked.”

“Chloee did an amazing job! Haru is quite stubborn and takes time to trust anyone, but Chloee was very patient with him and took a great care of him while I was away. She was also very responsive, giving me updates as needed. I’m very happy I found Chloee to watch my dog! Highly recommend her if you’re looking for a sitter ☺️ thank you so much, Chloee!”

“Nicole communicated with me well while I away. Letting me know how Stitch was doing and sending pictures. I really appreciate her picking up my last minute request and loving Stitch while I away.”

“Bobbie was great!! We have two that can be naughty but she was the best with them!! I know they miss her!!! Our flight was delayed and she even offered to go back over to check on them.. ♥”

About: Growing up I've always had dogs and have been around dogs. I absolutely love them. I've helped raise two dogs in my family home. We had a German Short-hair Pointer and most recently we had a West Highland White Terrier. I've also dog watched before for neighbors and friends. I have one dog of my own, Ava. She is a berndoodle. She is turning three this year and we’ve been through several trainings. I love going for walks and just playing with pups. I have experience feeding, providing medicine, bathing, and providing them with love. Please let me know how I can help you! I’m currently working from home several times a week and can either take a break to run and let your dog out or spend some time sitting at your house. We have a large yard that is not fenced in but we do have leads. We go on a couple walks a day and I have one fur baby that loves other pups to play with

“Kayla has been phenomenal! From walks to helping care for my pets - I know I can always count on her. With her love and experience for animals, I truly am grateful for her. (And I know my pets are too!) they absolutely LOVE when they see her! ❤️ Her kindness and compassion for animals is like no other. Your furry friends will be in amazing hands with Kayla”

“Sydney is always wonderful with our crew and her housesitting was no exception. We appreciate all she did for our pups and cat, especially with extreme cold weather!”

“Kayla was a fantastic fur baby sitter! My dogs absolutely adored her, they were well cared for, and I was kept in the loop with their daily activities. I absolutely recommend Kayla, and I will be using her services again in the future. She’s kind, communicative, and respectful of my time and space. I could go on and on, but your pets are in kind safe hands with Kayla!”

“Alex was awesome! I really appreciated getting pictures & updates of my pup while away. It was nice to hear about the long walk she took Ollie on & that he had a great time.”
