“Corrine is great! Seems to really care about the animals, and was focused on making the experience easy, safe and convenient for the whole family. We will be looking to use her again!”


“Ryan has been walking my dog,Polka, for the last week now and it’s been a godsend. I’m back working in the office and I’m gone all day. So to be able to trust Ryan to come and walk Polka and get her out of the house halfway through the day has been awesome. He’s reliable, responsible, and Polka loves him.”


About: I was a veterinary assistant for about 5 years, and I have been pet sitting for 4 years. I have a dog (she will not be joining me in your home). I can care for dogs and cats, including those with medication needs (oral and injectable). Aside from caring for your pet as my own, I will also take care of your home as my own; keeping it clean, getting the mail/packages if needed, taking garbage to the road, etc.. I have the ability to occasionally work from home if needed, and have the flexibility to take extended lunches to take care of your pets. I like to come over to meet your pets in your home and have you walk me through the daily routine for them to help make your absence easier on them.

“Jackson had a nice walk with Kira. She was responsive to communications and took pictures so we could see how happy he was!! Will definitely use again! Thanks, Kira!”


“Very reliable and maintains a flexible schedule.”

“Dora is excellent with Finn who can be a little much at times. Finn always brings Dora a toy which is the way he tells someone he likes them🐶”


About: I have spent all of my life with animals, dogs & cats specifically. I have been pet-sitting since I was about 14 years old. I have stayed in house, visited multiple times daily, walked pups and more. I have both a dog and cat of my own and know how to provide the mental & physical stimulation needed to keep your pets happy! I am a full time MSU Graduate Student with a part time position at a Michigan Education Non-profit! I can guarantee reliable, adaptable and timely care for your pet as well as direct and detailed communication with you! I care deeply about animals and am dedicated to making your pet feel as comfortable as possible with a newcomer in their home. Feel free to ask me any questions or communicate any concerns you have! I am happy to help wherever and whenever I can. I prefer to care for pets in their own home, either checking in or overnight if needed. I find that animals tend to be more comfortable and free of anxiety when they are in their own environment, and it is important to me to align myself with that comfort. I am able to provide any toys, treats and other items needed.

About: As a dedicated pet sitter, I understand that every furry friend deserves personalized care and attention. I’ve looked after a variety of pets, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and engaged while their owners are away. I am committed to providing a nurturing environment that meets each pet's unique needs, whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles on the couch. Additionally, I’m experienced in administering medications, so you can rest easy knowing that your pet will receive any necessary treatments with care and precision. Let me be your pet’s new best friend while you're away! I am currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I'm available for early-morning, afternoon and evening drops in visits and during weekends total availability. Meet and greets with pet owners. Providing regular updates and photos during visit. Adhering to pet medication instructions carefully. Maintaining a secure home environment for pets. Prioritizing the pets well-being. Clear communication with the owner to address any concerns that might rise.

About: What sets me apart from others is my dog training and professional pet care background. I spent 2 years caring for service dogs in training, and I've spent over 3 years working in kennel environments with all different breeds, sizes, and temperaments of dogs, learning different types of handling and training styles. I have also been apprenticing a dog trainer for the past 2 and a half years, and have developed a strong understanding of dog body language and behavior. I want to go above and beyond and give your pets the best care. There are many skills I've learned at my previous jobs, including; dog first aid and CPR, the basics of fear free handling and cooperative care, how to administer different medications safely, how to quickly spot and begin treating possible health issues, and how to work dogs through some of the most common behavioral issues. In addition to the normal care your dogs receive, I can do short training sessions with your dog which is a great way to tire their brains out! I can work on basic obedience, leash manners, confidence building, etc. Message me for more information! ** I also have experience caring for reptiles and amphibians. If you need care for any exotic pets please message me for more info! Drop-ins: 30 minutes spent with your dogs, including: Normal care including pottying, feeding and medicating as necessary, physical and mental stimulation, light grooming, and snuggles. For longer bookings - $25/hr (2 hours minimum) Walks: 20-30 minutes walking around your neighborhood or a nearby location Letting your dog sniff around and stretch their legs! I prefer to walk one dog at a time vs multiple dogs at once Overnight sitting: Pricing on this starts at $125 a night. This includes staying with your dog overnight, and leaving them for no longer than 2-4 hours at a time in the day. Normal care including feeding, medicating, physical and mental stimulation, light grooming, and snuggle time. I will follow your dog's routine as closely as I can. I will also provide a lot of updates and send a lot of pictures!! In general, things that might make the price a little higher would be puppies who need more frequent potty breaks, doing multiple training sessions with them, taking them out on field trips, taking them to appointments, dogs with special medical or grooming requirements, etc. Please message me for more information!! -- I especially love working with puppies and setting up a strong foundation for them, or working with the "problem children" with some more difficult behavior... they remind me of my dog! I also love meeting more scared and shy dogs (especially chihuahuas)!! Wherever I work, I am usually the person who gets scared dogs to come out of their shell! Message me to set up a free meet n greet! I can't wait to meet you and your pet. :) Dog sitting and walking is currently my main source of income. This means any appointment can easily fit into my schedule, as long as I have some time to spend with my own dogs! All of my services are offered in the client's home. I treat every client's dog like they are my own. I mainly use positive reinforcement and LIMA (least invasive, minimally aversive). I also have knowledge on fear free handling.

“Friendly, in-time and love of animals obvious”


“We love Tatiana - our dog has been happy and well cared for. So I am as well. I trust Tatiana with my pup, and you can too! Thanks Tatiana”


“Margaret was so wonderful to our baby Bruno! She was punctual in showing up to walk him, communicated with both the house/dog sitter and us while we were on our two week trip. She communicated with us almost daily and included some pics as well. Our dog seemed very happy to be with her as well for his walks. Would highly recommend this reliable and wonderful person!”


About: I have cared for my own pets for over 8 years; this includes caring for my extended family’s pets as needed. My husband is a certified K9 Handler with Explosives Detection Dogs and we have cared for his colleagues’ working dogs regularly for two years as they take advantage of vacation time, etc. As the parent of highly active breeds, I prioritize exercise and activity when caring for others’ pets (always with their individual needs in mind) because I understand how important this is to a dog’s overall health. I recently retired in December of 2024 and my schedule is wide open! I am available anytime to provide services for you and your pets. I have an UNFENCED two acre yard and two friendly (big) dogs to keep your pet company. I am happy to leash or crate my pets or yours as necessary. We have two interior crates available, one of them is an Impact Crate to reduce exterior stressors (if needed). I will always place the safety of the dogs first and utilize proper introduction techniques or responsible separation if need be.

About: Hi! I’m Natasha, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other furry (or feathery!) family members. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need someone to stop by during the day, I offer safe, loving care and peace of mind while you’re away. What I Offer: • Daily drop-in visits • Dog walking (rain or shine!) • Overnight stays • Playtime, cuddles, and enrichment • Medication administration (if needed) • Updates & photos to keep you connected I treat every pet like my own— with patience, love, and attention to detail. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, and I take pride in providing personalized care that fits your pet’s needs. Why Pet Parents Love Me: ✅ Trustworthy & communicative ✅ Flexible scheduling ✅ Experience with senior pets & special needs ✅ Clean, respectful, and dependable Let’s set up a meet-and-greet so I can get to know you and your pet! 🐶🐱🐰🐦 Looking forward to meeting your furry family soon! I am in EMT school from home so I can stop by or stay over at any time! Extremely flexible with my time so don’t hesitate to ask! I have a very large fenced in yard and 3 very social dogs that get along with everyone! All dogs are allowed on the furniture because it’s their house and we just rent it from them!

About: My family always had a dog, and when I moved out on my own, the first thing I did was get my own! I now have a chihuahua/papillon rescue named Jorah Borkmont, who loves to play with others. I make my own hours out of the home, so I will only be out of my home for a few hours per day, and I can return when necessary (we have a dog camera set up). My husband works at home most days, so he will also be here to care for your dog. We live in a townhouse with an unfenced yard, but do have tie-outs and plush grass to relax and potty on. There are safe sidewalks and a new neighborhood in the building process for long walks twice per day.

“Noelle did a great job walking my dog and providing pictures and feedback, will definitely use again!”


About: I have been taking care of dogs all my life. I grew up with two and currently have a Husky and Terrier. Friends and family over the years have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, stop in and check on them for a simple belly scratch and potty break, all the way to staying the night to give them piece of mind while they're gone. I currently work full time. M-W I am able to stop into clients homes after I get off work, after 3. Thursday and Friday I work from home so besides meetings, I am able to drop in at any time of the day. Saturdays and Sundays I am pretty flexible as well :) Each client is different but I will learn what is best for their pet when I meet them. I won't crate their pet unless asked. Going outside with pets when they're out doing their business, and keeping them on a leash to keep them safe is my standard for caring for anyones pet. The parents know best and I'd follow their rules.

About: I’ve taken care of family pets and my neighbors pets since I was 16. I’ve been a pet parent myself for over 10 years now. I know how important your pets safety/happiness/and comfort is. I take watching your pet extremely serious, my philosophy with Rover is to treat your pet(s) like I do my own. I work a low pressure job from home so I’m home 24/7. This means I’m able to be around your pet and give them all my attention everyday. Most importantly that gives me the freedom to focus on the well being and comfort of your pet. About my home: • very spacious ranch style home. - no stairs, plenty of room for your pet to run around. • VERY LARGE fenced in yard. - I allow my dog Leo to spend as much time as he wants outside. Sun bathing and fetch are his favorite. •I live in a large safe neighborhood. -No major roads and safe environment. Walks are a must! I will treat your pet like they’re my own.

About: I am 33, and I have had a wide range of pets my entire life including dogs, horses, and rodents! I currently chicken-sit, dog visit, bird watch, and occasionally have cats grace me with their presence. My dog is 2.5 years old and generally goes with me to tend to the animals, but I can leave her at home if that is a deal breaker! I live my life so Lady can have a very full one. We go on walks, hikes, or runs every day in any type of weather (Thanks to Michigan). My schedule is all over the place but it allows for me to be flexible. Let me know if I can help! I currently work 30-35 hours a week during the summer and I have winter months off. My summer work generally starts around 3:00 and goes until 10 so I have my mornings and early afternoons free. I treat everyone's house like my own! Trust and respect make up the foundation of my life and line of work. These pets are my family and will be treated as such -if you like your family ;)
