About: I’ve been a cat owner and animal lover for 15+ years, and I’ve also cared for friends’ cats and walked dogs. I love spending intentional, one-on-one time with pets so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m incredibly attentive, follow care instructions closely, and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾 I work remotely and have an extremely flexible schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my routine. Due to my flexible schedule, I also accept last minute requests. In my home, I have two cats who love dogs. I have a yard without a fence, so I’d take your dog out on leash. I also love walking and would love to have a dog to join me. I ensure all pets receive lots of love, attention, and one-on-one time. I follow their routines and care instructions closely.

“Today was my first experience with Rover/Molly. Wow! She went above and beyond! My dogs adore her…not the norm for them. Such piece of mind knowing your dogs are well cared for! I hesitate to give such a great review of Molly knowing that means she might not be available when I need her! 10/10!”

“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!”

“Daisy suggested to me the other day that Harley is not a huge fan of walking in the dark so I got her a glow-in-the-dark collar and it was a huge success for my dog. It alleviated her anxiety during their walk. So thank you Daisy for being such an amazing dog walker, that you made an observation that helped make my dog more comfortable on her walks. We appreciate it! We also appreciate the detailed reports on her adventures and the cute pictures you take ☺️”

“Henry was very communicative. He told us when he was arriving, leaving, and kept us updated on how Clover was doing throughout her walks and asked questions about her behavior. Henry was also very careful with our escapist cat and put my mind at ease. We would be happy to book him again.”

I was able to successfully walk all three, the calm one, the fiesty one, as well as the agreesive one. I love all animals especially dogs and cats.

I care for my pets by always making sure they are fed the right amount at the right time, always have clean water, and that I am taking dogs our to the bathroom every 3-4 hours to avoid any accidents.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for many years, and I’ve also helped care for my aunt’s dogs, who she groomed professionally. My patient and gentle nature allows me to connect with dogs of all personalities — from energetic pups to shy or nervous ones. I’m attentive to routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or basic training reinforcement. I follow instructions closely and am happy to help with commands, leash manners, or gentle encouragement for anxious dogs. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and plenty of love, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is an important part of my daily life, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I plan walks, visits, and playtime around your pet’s routine, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and enrichment activities. I’m available most days after 3 PM, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can adjust for regular visits or last-minute needs whenever possible, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I provide loving, attentive care in your pet’s own home, following your routines and instructions closely. I offer walks, playtime, enrichment, and medication if needed, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I’ve had a vast experience from helping foster cats to personal dog ownership and training. My calm, loving demeanor sets me apart from just a pet sitter. A flexible schedule is ideal, considering I am primary caregiver to my two children. Looking for a part time schedule during school hours. I value being responsible and reliable for you and your pet’s needs. I would love to establish our home as a safe boarding environment for your bestie. We have just under two acres- not fenced- of beautiful land for your best friend to run and play! Lots of space inside, with option of storing a crate, if needed. Our children will not be part of the boarding experience as they are not home on weekends. Our dog passed unexpectedly this year of cancer and it wrecked us. Although we cannot replace her, we would love to provide a happy place for your beloved pet to stay and be loved while you are away or need a break. 🩷

About: I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have an animal in my life. From shepherds to terriers, I have experience with large, medium, and small dogs. I also have experience caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve trained my own dogs, cared for foster puppies, and have experience handling pets with different needs and temperaments. I’m very open to feedback, learn quickly, and always strive to provide the best care possible. When you book with me, you can expect meaningful, attentive, and reliable care for your pet. Your fur baby will have my full attention, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Rain or shine, I will show up and give every pet the patience, attention, and care they deserve! Over the summer I am working fully from home. Which means I have an open schedule to care for your pets. I am open from morning to night. I can do daily visits, weekly visits, and more. When house sitting for your pets, I prioritize a respectful and responsible approach. I value clear boundaries in my own life, so I make it a point to treat your home and privacy with that same high level of integrity. I’m fully open to your specific rules and feedback, and I’ll keep you connected with consistent updates so you never have to wonder how things are going.

About: Get to know me: Hi!!!! My name is Gianna. I've taken care of dogs big and small since I was a child. With 3 pups at home right now giving me years of experience with dogs young and old. I have had breeds such as French bulldogs, pit bulls, and chihuahuas personally, but have cared for many others! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pups. My job is to care for your pup as if it were my own, making sure they are happy and well cared for. Schedule: I am currently employed with a 7 am-5:30 pm job during the weekdays. My weekends are typically clear unless suggested otherwise. After work and before work i am able to care to pets as needed! Safety, care, and environment: When it comes to a clients home I have a range of questions to better prepare myself for the best care. I will ask for a feeding, walking, and potty schedule for your pup to better care for their needs. Information like how much food the pup gets, is the pup friendly with other pups is also a must have! I will ask for permission before walking with multiple pups, and always check fence gates before letting pups out. Nonetheless I will always keep you updated with cute pictures and videos and I will always leave a home better than I arrived!

“Tyler and Andrea took my 13 ½-year-old Lab for walks twice a day, morning and evening. Even though the agreement was for 30 minutes, they often walked an extra 10 minutes since my lab is very slow. They were always punctual, communicated clearly, and showed great patience. Walking Veera is not easy at his age, but they never complained and cared for him with kindness. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby while we were sick — it gave us such peace of mind.”

About: I am 25 years old. I have been cat and dog sitting since I was in middle school. Alongside that I have worked at a dog kennel for 2 1/2 years. And I am currently in school to become a vet tech. I have experience with dogs of all ages and size. I have experience with administering medications such as pills, ear medication, oral medication, eye medication, insulin, etc. I also have experience with small paralyzed dogs and know how to express bladders in smaller dogs/cats. I am currently in school Monday - Wednesday but my schedule is quite flexible and on those days I will only be at campus for a couple hours. So I will still be able to provide the utmost care for your babies and give them all the attention they need! Animals are my passion and I love spending time with them. I would make sure to curate the time I spend with your fur babies based on their age and temperament. Whether that’s taking a high energy pup on walks or playing outside with them. Or extra snuggle time for the more elderly or chill babies. I also will make sure your baby has plenty of bathroom breaks throughout the day and I also love to send photo and text updates!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Clarkston. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
