“Alexis took such good care of my porch cat and even his friend! Very communicative and sent me lots of pics of my baby 🥹 I’m glad I found a reliable person loves cats and has experience with porch cats/community cats. 1000% recommend!”

“Lauren is very professional; she thought of everything. But also easy-going and chill. She had to deal with a broken sink, an extra foster cat, and communication with both my partner and me. She rolled with it all. As a bonus, her reviews are super funny. We were cracking up as we read them, and seeing the time she put into those updates made me realize she must have put that much effort into caring for our pets, too. Lauren really went above and beyond!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was 15. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and turtles, both as my own pets and for others. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, basic grooming, and following each pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, and I’m happy to adjust my care accordingly. I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away and can send lots of pictures and updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and loved! My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and extended stays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can provide frequent potty breaks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality and boundaries and make sure they feel comfortable with me. I’m experienced with administering medications, including subcutaneous fluids, and I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Destiny was so wonderful and helpful with our dog Bella. She gave her lots of luv and playtime. Destiny is a great dog sitter with very good communication. We received text updates and pictures. She stopped in twice, while we’re gone all day, and really spent quality time with our girl. Thank you Destiny. We really appreciated your help.”


About: I worked at Premier Pet Supply for a year and a half, and LOVE dogs!! I am also very active and am used to walking my 50lb pitbull who knows how to pull😂 I am currently a full-time student who works a part-time job! I have a cat who I love and care for, as well as my mother’s dog and numerous family friends who I enjoy pet-sitting for. I am very active so walks are always fun, and I can watch pets overnight as needed! I am in an apartment right now, so dogs would transparently be difficult to board, but in a clients home I have historically done very well! I work 7 hour days 4 days a week currently, which can be adjusted as needed for clients and their pets comfort. I am also very good at following instruction and caring for animals- I used to work at a pet store!

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a child! I currently have a 14 year old dog at my parents house in Troy so I love a senior dog :) I also have puppy watched for many friends and love to be with them for a walk and check in! I’m currently a Master’s Student (on summer break) who works evenings in the week and days on the weekends bartending at Batch! I am starting an internship in mid-May, but will be mostly virtual Making your pet happy while you’re away is my number one priority! Whether it’s an oldie who just needs some pets and food while we chill in the sun, or a younger pet that needs some play time and some walks, my goal is to leave them feeling happy. I know pets are so so important to everyone (as they are to me) so I always want to match the care I would want for my babies :)
“Randi is communicative, friendly, reliable, and, best of all: a true gentle and loving spirit! She took amazing care of my pups, sending many photos and proactively reaching out to me, making me feel assured every step of the way that there is no concern to be had. I truly appreciate her and am looking forward to booking another visit with her again!”
“Tara was wonderful with Rosie! She was reliable, communicative, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Rosie was well cared for, happy, and clearly comfortable in her care. I really appreciated the updates and photos, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Tara again. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with all types of pets, and pet sat for friends and family throughout undergrad. I've cared predominantly for dogs, ranging from a young miniture dachshund to an elderly lab mix. I am more than happy to take on new experiences and can swiftly adapt to meet your pets needs. In addition to caring for pets, I have an ever growing (and thriving) plant collection in my own home and have frequently taken on plant sitting as well. I am a full-time law student and work part-time on the weekends. During the week, my schedule is flexible, providing me time before, after, or even between classes to check in on your pets. On the weekends, I typically work in the evening but remain free all morning. I also love to get outside and go for walks as much as I can and would love to have a furry friend come along! I believe caring for a pet in their own home is the better option. I think pets tend to feel more safe and secure in a familiar environment, which can help counter having an unfamiliar person around at the start. Additionally, in their own home, pets have access to all the food, toys, and other comforts they are used to. My first priority is to make sure your pet is safe and happy. I am always more than happy to adapt to your pets specific needs.
“Tiyani was amazing! She was communicative, punctual, and even brought some of my packages inside when she stopped by which was definitely not within the scope of her responsibility but I appreciated it very much! 10/10 recommend, I could tell my cat was happy and had been well cared for when I returned.”

About: I have grown up around dogs and have volunteered with the Detroit Dog Rescue, so I have had experience with a wide variety of dogs. Wherever you are with your dog (e.g. training programs) I will follow that--I do not want your dog's schedule or routine to get disrupted while you are away. I understand how to approach dogs, no matter the size. I am a Real Estate Agent, so my schedule is flexible and I can work from anywhere, so you’re dog or cat will get all the attention! We will go on walks, play, exercise, etc. I am comfortable working with animals of all sizes, various breeds, and all ages. I understand that pets are a part of a family and I want them to still feel that way when you are gone for the time period where I am watching them. I have administered insulin to a cat before, and other medications to dogs as well. I am a Realtor so I can work from home or leave your baby for the day while I go to the office. I do have some unplanned events for work, like showings and closings, but I will give him or her the best attention he or she needs! I will follow the rules you set for your fur baby. I will be sure to send you pictures, videos, and updates every day you're away.
About: Trust worthy project manager who works at home with her fur babies. Looking to take breaks in the day to take your animals on walks or anything you need while you are at work or on vacation. I also am apart of the Dog park committee in Lafayette Park so I have experience putting on dog events. I can’t wait to walk your dog ! Remote worker with a very flexible schedule. I work from home so I can stop by and check on your pet during the day time. Everyday I ensure Tucker gets his walk twice a day along with going out side another 2.

About: As a mental health therapist, I understand the important role animals play in our emotional lives. Animals are more than just a thing we care for and deserve to be respected for their individual differences in personality, temperament, and needs. I have spent my lives work caring for humans and animals in this way and will work hard to listen and care for your animals in the individual ways they deserve. I currently own my own mental health practice and work from home doing virtual client visits. I have a flexible schedule that can accommodate your individual needs. I am able bodied and can travel to you for animal care. I require an in person meeting ahead of caregiving services to establish trust with both you and the animals and to ensure it is a good fit. If overnights are required, I will need access to Internet in order to work from the home.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for over 20 years, ranging from the typical fish, cat, and beloved Murphy, to include even a pet iguana (or two). 🥰 I have a fenced yard where both Murphy and your furry loved one can play and hang out. For overnight stays I have a large adult dog kennel that can accommodate a Mastiff just as comfortably as it can my Min Pin (who believes he’s the size of a Mastiff). 😄 I have an older dog with lots of energy and plays well with other dogs. I am an active person, so neighborhood walking is available for dogs with proper training. I can also provide some minor training reinforcement for puppies or young dogs learning new skills and/or tricks. 🐾 Tips are APPRECIATED!!! 🐾 I work from home! 🙌🏾 So my schedule is flexible and allows me to be able to work with and respond to clients in a timely manner. My home is fenced. All pets remain on the property unless they are taken for walks. I also will let clients know about overlaps in booking wih animals.

Ariel did an amazing job caring for our two kitties while we were away on vacation! She really went above and beyond with communicating and sending updates and any concerns, and especially loved all the photos and videos she sent. I could tell they were safe in her care, which helped us feel comfortable leaving them for a week. We came home to a clean house and two happy kitties, id definitely rebook her in the future!

Jillian was fantastic with my Bulldog, Truman! She made sure to send updates, and keep me updated with how he is doing. She successfully gave him all his medications, and notified me when he was in need of his antibiotic. I high recommend Jillian especially if you have a pet that needs a little extra care and is elderly.

Alex is an absolute gem. We needed a sitter last minute and not only did they come in clutch, they provided a world class experience for our cat. They were transparent, gave daily updates and sent all the photos. Our cat was so loved and taken care of while we were gone. 10/10 book Alex for your pet needs.

Sylvie was great taking care of our 4 cats and fish while we were away for over a week. I left a long and detailed instruction list and she had no problem following it to a T. Although our cats are typically shy, one of our boys took a liking to her as shown in the pictures at each visit. I highly recommend Sylvie to care for your pets!

We cannot say enough how much we appreciate Kristina. We have 3 dogs, one in which has Epilepsy and is timid with new people and with the first meeting with Kristina our boy loved her! Our other 2 love her as well and that was such a blessing. I highly recommend Kristina.
Preti was great with our cat Nebula. She came by our place before hand and asked questions while getting to know our girl a little bit. She filled out Rover Cards with detail and let me know if something unexpected happened. Overall she was a great sitter. Will be looking to book again.
