Dog Walkers in Clare, MI

About: I have been caring for pets since I was young, as we have always had dogs and cats. Over the last couple of ears have started to house pet sit for familv and friends, as well as dog walking. I am currently attending college 2 days a week (mondays and Wednesday's) and work 8-5 during the week as well. I would like to be able to take care of pets on the weekends when I can. and maybe after work if that works out. I am very knowledgeable on how to care for animals. I will be careful when getting to the home and leaving the home to make sure the pet is in excellent care. While taking care of the pet I will be in contact with the owner.

“Cher helped us out with our pup super last minute and was super responsive!”

About: I’m the kind of person who gets excited every time I see a dog and I’ve been caring for them most of my life! I’ve had my own pups and have been dog sitting for family and friends since 8th grade. Every dog I meet gets the love, attention, and snuggles they deserve. I currently work 2 part time jobs. Caring for your furry friend, on their schedule, will fit perfectly into my schedule! I have a rotating nights schedule so I have every other weekend off with only 2 nights during the week! In my home, my animals are treated like family, I’d love to do the same for yours! I am great at following their schedule and listening to their needs because I believe they deserve care like you never left!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I’m experienced and comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m a huge dog person who truly loves spending time with them—whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or just giving them extra attention and affection. As a college student with classes only two days a week, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care during weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute requests. Pet sitting isn’t just a side job for me; it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Every dog I care for is treated like part of my own family, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m a college student and only have class two days a week, so I have a lot of free time during the rest of the week. Because of that, I’ve started offering pet-sitting and dog-walking services to make good use of my schedule. My open availability makes it easy to help pet owners who work long hours, travel, or just need someone dependable to check in on their animals. I can handle daily walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care, and I’m available on short notice most weekdays and weekends. Pet sitting has been a great way to earn extra money while spending time with animals, and it fits perfectly with my flexible college routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, my goal is to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable while following the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home: I make sure to follow all instructions for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I keep the home tidy, give pets plenty of attention, and send regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing. In my home (if applicable): I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with room to play and relax. Dogs get regular walks, exercise, and cuddle time, and I keep their feeding and bathroom schedules consistent with what they’re used to. Because I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, I can spend extra time with pets, giving them the attention and care they need throughout the day instead of just quick check-ins.

About: I have worked in a kennel for two years. It has given me valuable skills on how to work with dogs and understand them better. I am a student athlete and a double major so I am a little busy! However I’ll always be able to make time for pets. I will most likely be available middle of the day. It will most likely range from each pet. Each animal needs a different type of love. I would ask about your dog and want to know what they like and don’t like, so I can make sure they are happy.

“Brittany was prompt and reliable. She did not seem at all turned off by my two dogs’ energy level and ‘enthusiasm’ (including jumping) when she met them. I believe she did a great job exercising them. They seemed relaxed and settled when I returned home. I appreciated how well she kept in contact and the pictures she sent!”

I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, play, and any special instructions.

About: Hi there! I am Gina - self proclaimed animal advocate and lover. I am very involved in the rescue world which means I am well-versed in animal language and their needs. I had many fosters through various rescues and have 2 dogs, 1 cat, and a bunny of my own. I am a believer in positive reinforcement which means I will treat your animals with respect and never use adverse methods. I believe in treating pets with kindness in every interaction. I have a more ‘difficult’ dog myself which took very patient training to get him to even be able to go outside. With this experience, I know how to handle dogs that may be more reactive on a leash or take a gentle hand to guide them. I also have a very well-rounded pup so I feel I have seen both ends of the spectrum! My pup also has a neurological disorder, so I am comfortable with special needs dogs as well. I pet sit for all my rescue friends, and for some of them I am one of few that they trust. As a child, I dreamed of being a vet, and although that was not my career path, I still find joy in being around animals. I also volunteer for animal non profits when ever I can. I take close measures to make sure animals are safe and comfortable when I’m around and would be honored to be trusted with your fur baby ❤️ I also am available for CAT drop-ins! 🐱 I work from home 9-5 M-F and with advanced notice can flex my schedule to accommodate drop ins or walks. My schedule should be up to date with vacations. For in-home stays during the weeks, I would ask that you can set me up with WiFi connection so I can work while I’m there! I will follow any instructions given to me to best ensure your pet feels comfortable. I will take precautions to make sure that the animal is never at risk of flight, and will communicate if needed. I am extra careful to ensure the pet is safely indoors before departing and triple check locks for peace of mind. As mentioned in my profile, I am a positive reinforcement advocate so I WILL NOT use adverse methods such as prong collars, electric shock collars, etc. If this is something you use for your dog, I’m afraid we won’t be a good fit!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 13 both small and large. Family members and family friends have relied on me to make sure that their furry companions get the care that they need. I also have experience handling senior dogs and giving medication if needed. I currently have open availability for rover requests up until end of June then school starts so I’ll have open availability Thursday-Sunday and will be in school from 8:30am-4:30pm Monday-Wednesday. For any booking requests depending on the duration of time I ask please book a week in advance:) Whether it's checking in, caring for your pet in your home, or just helping them get in their exercise I will ensure that they are watched after promptly! For walking services there are plenty of areas ear me I can take them for walks or to just have fun at. Check-ins will be on time and thoroughly communicated with owners. Any house sitting I ensure frequent updates to ease any worries an owner may have.

“Shawna. I can’t thank you enough for your energy, confidence and overall amazing personality! Thanks for helping me out in a bind, being flexible, and so understanding of my dear yet anxious pup. Appreciate you and would definitely hire again!”

About: I have experience with special diets and elderly dogs, including diabetic dogs in need of insulin shots. Also used to dogs of all size big and small! I love taking care of all types of pets, I have a dog of my own, whom I make sure to spoil and give plenty of attention all the time. Making sure he is happy and healthy is something I do on a daily basis. I love interacting with pets, this includes playing and petting them, however if a dog shows any signs of being uncomfortable with that type of attention I make sure to accommodate, to make sure that the dog is comfortable.

About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life, from training my own dogs to dog/cat sitting for family and friends, I have more experience with big dog breeds rather than little but I am comfortable in my ability to care for all types of dogs and cats. My family has raised puppies multiple times and I have assisted in caring for and training them. I am currently unemployed but I have recently enrolled into a bachelor’s degree program completly online for a degree in animal health and behavior, I am 19 and I graduated high school last year. My days are pretty much completly open to being able to help people with their pets Currently I am unable to bring other people’s pets into my home because we have three large dogs that aren’t the best when it comes to other animals, but me and my boyfriend are working on renovating a polebarn into a apartment for me and him and we plan on completly fencing the area in for when we eventually get dogs of our own.

About: Hello, my name is Alana and I am so glad you have considered me to watch your fur baby! For over a decade I have taken care of almost every animal under the sun including dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, chickens, cows, and so many more! What sets me aside from others is my love for all animals, and my dedication to ensuring their needs are met. Currently, I attend Saginaw Valley and am slowly earning my bachelors degree in social work. I also work within the public school system with individuals with disabilities. My schedule works perfectly for individuals looking for drop in’s every 6-8 hours or if you are looking for an overnight sitter. If your pet requires more frequent visits, I would suggest contacting a sitter who can accommodate this. When taking care of your fur babies, their safety and mine is always my number one priority. In order to maintain a safe environment, I suggest that we schedule a meet and greet before the day of the service request. This way your pet will know me, easing some tension when you are gone. Furthermore, when in your home I ensure that I remain calm and follow directions as laid out by you in order to fulfill your pets needs.
