Pet Sitting Dansville

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 15 for family and friends. I have watched all types of dogs, large, small, young, and old as well as some cats. I am an active person that enjoys exercise but I also love nature so I can go at whatever speed your dog prefers. I am a graduate student at MSU so I keep a busy schedule, but I will always find time for your pets and treat them as my own! Although I am not certified I have trained my own dogs and can adjust to whatever level of obedience you are looking to attain. I also volunteer at an animal sanctuary so I have experience with all kinds of animals besides just cats and dogs. I would love to be able to assist you with any of the services I can provide for your furry friends! I am a graduate student so I do have classes during the fall and spring term and MSU employs me part-time as a teaching assistant. I do have availability inside and outside the working hours of the day depending on the day of the week during classes. In the summers, I currently work on research for MSU but have flexible scheduling to fit your pet care needs. I am a detail-oriented person and will care for your pets exactly the way you would in your own home. I also will treat your home as if it was my own and clean up after myself and your pets, and make sure your house is safe and secure while you are gone. I will be happy to take care of your pets and make sure they are well-taken care of until you return!

“Marissa has been wonderful! She has gone above and beyond to take care of my kitty cats. She is very detailed and professional, and I always look forward to her updates!”

About: I am a college student at Grand Valley State University. I am home for the summer, I have grown up with animals my whole life, and I absolutely love them! Pet care fits into my routine by being something I prioritize every day. Since I have five cats and one Beagle, I have responsibilities like feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, walking my dog, and making sure they're healthy and happy. Being a college student has taught me how to balance these responsibilities with classes, studying, and other commitments. I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, get exercise and attention, and have a clean-living space. Since I care for five cats and one Beagle at home, I'm comfortable managing multiple pets and following a daily routine. In a client's home, I would carefully follow their care instructions, keep the pets comfortable, and treat both their pets and home with respect.

About: I have 5+ years experience caring for dogs! My neighbors, family friends, and other have trusted me to take care of their pets with dignity. I currently have my own business training and raising hunting dogs! I work full time during the week 7:30-4:30 which is why weekends work best for me! I’m also able to take my hour lunch early or late if pet care is needed during the weekdays! I understand the importance of respecting an owners wishes on how their pet is cared for in and out of their home. I have 4 dogs of my own that are my whole world. I will treat your pet like mine. I can easily crate/kennel your pet even in urgent situations.

About: I have taken care of many animals and volunteer at shelters. I’m in school to be a vet as well. I’d love to meet yours! My schedule is flexible to adjust. So I work a basic 9-5 and am free every weekend. I work from home on Fridays as well. My pets are my furry children. I treat my pets like family. Lots of love and snuggles. Time outside is important as well as walks.

“Allison went above and beyond I was nervous because I had never used Rover before. Allison was awesome I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my dogs. Thank u for taking such good care of our babies.”

“Alexander has been great with my RR’s. They are a handful and large and he is patient. He has been reliable over multiple visits and I don’t hesitate to recommend him.”

“Both during the initial visit and while she was taking care of them, Ashleigh was great with my dogs! My three husky mixes loved her! She took the time to go outside and engage with each one of them and cater to their individual personalities. She was extremely patient with their high energy needs and even took the time to send me several photos of them playing in the yard. Her exerperince of currently being in Vet school, and of previously working in a kennel and as a Vet Assistant really put me at ease in that if there were some type of an emergency, Ashleigh would be able to promptly and properly be able to handle it. I will defintely request Ashleigh's services again in the future!”

About: I have many years of experience of working with animals! I am a huge animal lover and my overall goal is to ensure that every animal I work with is happy, healthy, and safe. Its crucial to me that there is clear communication with each client so I can care for every animals specific needs, routines, etc. as a pet owner myself I understand how important it is to be confident that you are leaving your fur baby in good hands, and it’s my goal to give you that insurance. I have experience giving medications and dealing with very specific situations. I am currently taking a gap year from school before starting graduate school and am working part time at a private therapy practice. I work 9-2 Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and 12-5 on Wednesdays. I do have a flexible schedule and could make changes to it as needed! Caring for other people’s pets in their own home means more than just feeding and walking—it’s about honoring the trust you have placed in me. I make sure to treat each home with professionalism and care, strictly following routines, house rules, and security measures. I will provide clear, proactive communication such as sharing updates, photos, or any changes to build peace of mind.

“Juhi was great with my Frenchie! This was our first time having her drop-in and provided great communication about the visit! Thanks again Juhi!”

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for others for 15 years, and grew up on a farm making any and all types of furry friends along the way. I have two dogs of my own, Dante and Olaf who are my whole world. I’d love to help with your fur babies and spoil them as they deserve to be! I currently am furry friends 24/7! I’m a stay at home dog mom, and am more than happy to help out with your fur babies whenever needed :) I pride myself on the fact that I treat each and every furry friend as if they were my own baby! Always staying mindful of surroundings, making sure they have food/water, are comfortable and playing to their hearts desires. I’m happy to follow any routines and/guidelines you may have to make it the most comfortable for you and your baby!

About: My entire life I’ve had the blessing to care for pets. From my Rottweiler Roxie, to my sweet kitty Nala, I’ve learned what to look for to provide the best care to my animals. I’ve also had extensive training in caring for livestock. During my undergrad I spent three years as a pig farmer and I loved every minute of it. I’m hoping to work most days after 3pm but no later than 10pm. I have some flexibility on most weekends. Would prefer mornings during the weekend but I am flexible. I have a fenced in yard that my cat likes to explore in. I also have a laundry room that can be used to separate my cat from any of your animals if needed.

“Diane was fantastic and I'll definitely be rebooking her again in the future. She deeply cared for my animals as if they were her own.”

About: Hi there! I am currently a 3rd year veterinary student at MSU and 2022 MSU Alumni 💚 I've been caring for dogs and cats for many years, including experience as a kennel technician, personal pet sitter, and veterinary assistant. Your bookings support my education to receive my DVM. I grew up surround by many dogs and cats and have experience of all life stages from young puppies and kittens to senior pets. I'm also a proud cat mom of two boys, Winston and Schmidt 🐈🐈‍⬛ So I understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your babies. I’m comfortable with administering oral, eye, ear, and injectable medications and caring for special needs pets. Your pet's comfort, safety, and routine are my top priority. I am currently in clinics right now and will update my availability. My schedule changes every 3 weeks until I graduate in 2027. The time I do have available I would love to spend with your pets! I do not provide care in my own home since I have two cats, but I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of your home, where they can stay relaxed and stick to their normal routine.

About: I offer great service. I’m good with both cats and dogs, I understand pet care and how to properly socialize with them. I’m attentive and patient with the vibrant personalities of any pet! I require that first time clients schedule a video chat with me prior to any services to ensure the safety of your home and your pet. Please do not text me personal phone numbers. I lost my senior yorkie at the start of this year. However, she was very pampered and cared for. Our daily routine is consistent and I monitor her health closely as well as give her plenty of attention and play time. She’s very attached to her home and her family, and very protective, so it’s important that she has lots of love. She’s a cuddler and goes for the mouth with kisses. Her stomach is very sensitive and she has a strict diet. She’s a great companion, however, and a great bugler alarm system as she barks at everything that moves. I understand greatly, the importance of a dog’s preferences and quirks. Nothing your dog could need is ridiculous to me at all. Your home will be greatly respected, and your pets will be my priority. I will keep your pet on their proper schedule and ensure that they don’t get lonely while you’re away! You would set the feeding schedule and I would take them on walks or let them outside accordingly. Of course we will have plenty of playtimes and I will do my best to limit any messes.

About: I currently have 4 dogs and 1 cat of my own and love helping care for other animals. I have experience with high energy dogs, as well as senior cats and dogs. I am now a young 40 something mom and professional who has had pets my entire life! I LOVE animals! I am typically available to provide care in the evenings and weekends, sometimes at lunchtime depending on location, and for extended vacation stays. I only care for other pets in their own homes so I take guidance from you and your pet. Tell me what preferences you have and what your pet's routine is and I will follow that. :)
