About: I’ve always had a dog to take care of while growing up and It has turned me into the dog lover that I am today. I’ve always rescued dogs from the shelters and I know that time, dedication and lots of patience is the key to a happy dog. I’ve worked with dogs needing help overcoming anxiety/separation issues. It is a tough job, but very rewarding. Dogs have always been a major part of my life! I am available most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays! I may be available some Saturdays/Mondays. Please feel free to message me for more details. I’ve been walking our family dogs my whole life. My #1 first priority is their safety and security. We sit/pause when cars come by, etc.

Angela is amazing. This was our first time using Rover AND we have a new dog, so we’re a little nervous about it all. She is so sweet and responsive to our questions. Communicative, reassuring and just overall a great person that we felt comfortable with right away. Highly recommend!

I needed a sitter for my 2 Huskies last minute and Sam was able to jump in and do an awesome job taking care of them for the day. Smart, on time does what she says, and the dogs love her. Can't ask for anything more. Will definitely be using her again for future dog sitting, thanks again!

About: Hi there! My name Marisa! I have a 1 year old spunky pup named Zoey. She is the sweetest girl and loves other dogs! I grew up with a family dog and also pet sitting for family and friends. I love running, walking, and playing with dogs! I live in a pet friendly apartment building and also have a fenced in courtyard to allow dogs to run around! I live by plenty of dog parks and places for dogs to run around. The lake trails are a short walk away that your furry buddy and myself can enjoy! Communication is important to me, so expect pictures and updates :) I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to take multiple breaks to walk, play and spend time with your dog! I like to consider my home my dogs home. They are a part of your family and I think it is important to treat them as such.

About: We have a rescue dog at home, Mr. Carl. We love him very much but he has behavior problems (aggression, territorial, issues with other dogs and people, anxiety, etc.) Working with Carl since he was a puppy has given me experience in understand and feeling comfortable around all types of dogs. Going on walks with him is no easy tasks, so I have learned to constantly scan surroundings for potential triggers and overtime we have worked through some of his problems. Although he has his behavioral problems I wouldn’t trade Carl for the world! For that reason I welcome all dogs and whatever makes them special just like Carl :) I am currently a student at U of M with varied availability during the day. Please feel free to reach out with any questions about my schedule! I have experience house sitting for one or multiple dogs, and am comfortable around all types and size of dogs. I also have experience dispensing oral medication regularly to dogs.

About: I will take care and love your dog as much as I love my little guy, Jax. Our house is very pet friendly with a back yard for the dogs to play in. I am a stay at home mom with a 1 year old who loves animals. We live around beautiful walking paths that I love to take everyday! I have been pet sitting since I was a little girl, with lots of experience from all ages and sizes. I continue doing it because I love it and my dog loves the company. Please don’t hesitate to be specific about your pets wants and needs. The details you provide the better experience your dog and I will have together. I look forward to getting to know your dog! We have a routine where we go for two walks around the neighborhood a day and love spending time in our backyard playing. There’s some dogs bed and comfy couches around the house that all dogs are welcome on. We have a fenced in yard offering space to run around. Our house is set up as dog friendly so they can’t get into anything dangerous.

I offer a safe and loving environment for pets at all times. I live across the street from a park so being active and going on many walks can be expected!

About: I can help you with your animal care needs, from as quick as short pop-ins to week-long house/dog sitting. I've been around all kinds of animals all of my life. I work in Bloomfield Hills so if you are in that area I can run over to your house on my lunch hour and let your dogs out. I live in Clarkston so I can stop off at your house on my way to or from work and let your dogs out/feed them etc.... I can go to your house after work and let your dogs out and I can even stay at your house for a short time or a long time or over a long weekend (I don't work Fridays). I routinely house-sit for someone who has one dog and MANY cats inside the house and outside, duties included feeding ferals as well as the local wildlife... racoons, deer, birds, turkeys etc. I house-sit for someone who has 6 dogs. I am open to all sizes and breeds and temperaments of dogs, ... I am familiar with all kinds of birds. I also have experience with many reptiles. If you have me stay over-night I can be company for your animals throughout the day. I spend quality time with them. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I own Staffordshire terriers but have owned almost every breed of dog throughout my life. (I would love to babysit a Greyhound just f.y.i.) I can stay at your house all day and all night if you require, for stays requiring several days in a row....contact me for the fee. Typically I charge $50 for over-night stays at your house, from evening until morning. If the stay requires me to be there further throughout the day, depending on how many visits or hours, the cost is adjusted accordingly. I have a jeep 4x4 so no need to worry about having driveways or pathways shoveled during the winter while you are gone. I charge $50 to sleep at your house (late evening til morning) If you need me throughout the day, depending on what is required.. there will be an up-charge. I work mon thru Thursday and I can stop at your house to, or from work ...after work... I can do drop-ins or I can stay for extended times. I am free all Friday Saturday and Sunday. I have a jeep 4x4 so no need to worry about any sudden snow storms while you are gone. if you need any special instructions followed, just write everything down. i can water your plants, get your mail... while I am there. I will let your dogs out often to go potty
