Pet Sitting Comstock

“Communicated well. I always seem to plan trips during the worst weather but she always gets to the house during requested times which was important since one of the cats needed insulin.”

“Ellie took fantastic care of our two large dogs by dropping in twice in one day, taking them for walks, ensuring they had plenty of attention and play time - we are so thankful for her and will rebook again soon with Ellie!”

About: Currently I own 10 cats, 1 dog, and a pet rat business (Rem’s Rattery). I have experience with dog training, walking, engaging behaviors, socialization, puppy manners, and exercise. I have self trained my service dog and am mentored by Super Powers Canine Academy (SD recently washed from service due to leg pain). My husband will be in the home at the time of in-home services has hands on experience at shelters and vet care for various animals, but mainly cats and dogs. I currently use pet-sitting as a full-time job as I want to invest myself fully into caring for your fur babies! I am available at all times of the day (and night) to work with your schedule as-needed. By choosing me for your pet’s care, you can expect pictures of your pet each visit and reinforcement of any training that is a work in progress. When coming to your home I will be sure to respect your environment and ensure your pet is taken care of thoroughly to prepare for your return.

About: 3 yrs ago I moved from Chicago to the Kalamazoo Milwood neighborhood with my senior dogs, Linus and Daphne. Both were senior dogs who enjoyed their new fenced in yard for the last yr of their life on earth. While living in the city of Chicago, we interacted with all breeds of dogs during our walks. I learned how to "read" other dogs and their parents. My dogs were leashed at all time per city law. Now I have 2 young rescues, Violet, terrior mix and Ted, goldendoodle. They are 2-3 yrs old and full of energy. Violet is a challenge to walk because she wants every squirrel but is improving with some training. I am a retired nurse who proved senior care including medication administration to my Linus and Daphne. I am a warm, caring, and careful dog person who would love caring for your dog(s). I have always walked 2 dogs at a time. I am a newly retired registered nurse. My availability is very flexible. Short notice is fine. be available at short notice depending on time and distance. I have a fenced in yard which my dogs love (Mom does too). I take all means to keep my dogs healthy, happy, and loved.

About: I have owned and taken care of pets my whole life. Within the past five years did I start actively pet sitting. Services I have experience in include staying overnight (can be long term after discussion), drop-ins, feeding, and consistent walking. I also have helped pets with taking medications. I am currently working full time, so pet care would best work Friday to Sunday evening. If the location is close, I will be able to do weekday overnight stays. I would like to see the owner’s home first to ensure I can get in / get out and take care of the pet properly! This includes taking note of fenced yards, any space the pet is not allowed in, and being aware of pet habits (chewing on items, scratching, not potty trained). This ensures I know what to do beforehand and can give the best pet care.

About: I've owned and watched friend and family dogs since I was 13 and worked with cats for the last 6 years. I would house sit and stay with animals to make sure they were fed, walked and cared for. I care for all animals as if they were my own, with patience and love. My biggest job was watching 10 dogs at once! I have worked as a vet tech and I'm comfortable administering medicine if needed. I currently have 9 years experience in pet retail/ pet care, learning how to care for birds, small animals and some reptiles as well. I have also have experience with caring for senior dogs and puppies. I currently own three cats and miss being around dogs- let me love your pet! I'm currently working full time but can make my schedule work for your needs. Contact me to see what we can work out for your pet. I care a lot about making sure my pets get enrichment in their day. We will play until we are both tired. I currently am not able to board pets in my own home.

“Kristin did a fantastic job caring for my two cats with drop-in visits while I was out of town! She was communicative and asked questions about things that I forgot to tell her, which helped my cats have a great weekend. She was patient and gentle with my cat that’s pretty skittish with new people, which allowed him to warm up to Kristin by the end of the weekend. I would recommend Kristin to anyone looking for cat care in the future. :)”

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was 9 years old. Lots of experience with both long and short term house sitting, with multiple animals with different needs! Currently I work part time as a dance instructor, so I have plenty of time and energy to keep your pets entertained. I’m available most days for house sitting and pet care Your home, your rules! Your pets, your schedule! Routines are super important for both animals and humans. My goal as your sitter is to make the irregular feel regular, for you and your pet(s).

“Ashley was so great! She took amazing care of my 2 cats while I was out of town for a whole week. She sent pictures regularly and was very communicative. I will definitely be booking with her again for any of my pet sitting needs!”

About: I can use any training tools you use on walks to continue their training. I can take your pup for a run if they have extra energy they need to burn too! I have a part time job allowing me time to walk your furry friend most afternoons/evenings with the occasional morning or weekend walk if needed! I have a dog if your pup wants a friend on their walk or if they need a solo walk that works too! I stay within your neighborhood so we are never far from home keeping the doggies calmer.

“We had to leave for the weekend in a hurry, and Anna was very willing to care for our kitty. Anna took great care of her, was very polite in establishing the logistics, and even cleaned up after our cat when she missed the litter box. We are so thankful!”

I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

About: Devoted and die-hard dog Momma over here! I have a Muttley crew of dogs including Labrador Retrievers and Pitt Bull mixes. My pack includes senior aged dogs through to young dogs. I have dedicated the last couple years to fostering dogs and absolutely fallen in love pivoting my world in the direction of companion pets. I have also worked at a local doggie daycare and volunteer often with my dogs as control dogs in a local dog training group's reactive rover class. I currently work part time in a local dog park as well. Needless to say, I encounter all types of dogs throughout my day and love learning their unique personalities. I have studied dogs at length with my personal pack, in training classes, with my dog centered jobs, and I continue to enjoy deep discussions on dog body language to learn even more! Dogs are fascinating animals to me, and I adore learning more to better communicate with them. I have a flexible schedule currently. I work part time at a local dog park in the afternoons during the week, and volunteer by fostering dogs. I have a fenced in yard and friendly dogs at home that are social and enjoy playing with new pups, proven with the foster pups I bring home. My pack is excellent communicators with other dogs and help draw out shy dogs and teach them how to dog. Dogs are welcome on the furniture (couch and bed) in my home. New dogs through foster or dog sitting sleep in a crate for naps during the day and at night out of an abundance of caution for safety.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life, as many of us have. I think what sets me apart is patience and experience providing medical care for elder pets. I'd be delighted to care for your family members. An open, flexible schedule allows me to care for pets any evening, for any weekend. Willing and able to assist clients with medication administration to pets on a strict schedule. Patience and consistency is key to quality pet care. I vow to respect the home of all of my clients, and provide the best service I can.
