“Sarah was wonderful! She went above and beyond. Everyday, she'd send us a picture of our cat and a little message with it. Our cat doesn't warm up to strangers easily, but by the end of our trip, Sarah had managed to get on petting terms with her. She also alerted us that there was a power outage and made us feel totally secure knowing that our baby was safe in her hands!”

“Lauren was great! She watched our girl while we got married and it was so cool to get photos of her while we were sitting down to eat! She was prompt, very kind and took amazing care of her! Would highly recommend and will request her again in the future!”

“A very kind and attentive person. She gave my cat her full attention and affection! The daily “card” with the pictures assured me that all was well. And she added a special touch on the last day.”


“Ray is the man!! He was great with both my cat and my silly lab. Being an ocean away from home was worrisome, but Ray made it easier on all of us, by keeping my fur-babies well cared for, and keeping me and my family aware of how they were doing. I have nothing I can say, but thank you!! =)”

“Alyson is truly a dog person. She was awesome with Missy. She followed my instructions for her and went above and beyond caring for her. I ran out of her premium dog food, and Alyson brought some to replace it while I was gone, which was so thoughtful of her and Missy was so grateful for that. I am looking forward to having Alyson back to care from Missy again. I feel very comfortable, leaving her in her care.”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life! I have a senior Chihuahua who I’ve raised since she was a puppy, so I understand the needs of both young and senior pets. I’ve also cared for cats (including kittens), and I have pet sat for family members’ dogs, from a young Great Pyrenees and an energetic Australian Shepherd to a playful Beagle and a tiny Pomeranian. Beyond dogs and cats, I have experience with fish tanks, birds, turtles, and even chickens, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals. I’m responsible, reliable, and truly dedicated to making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Right now, my schedule is very flexible, which means I’m available most days and times throughout the week. Whether it’s a morning walk, mid-day drop-in, or evening sitting, I can easily adjust to fit your pet’s routine. I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay relaxed and comfortable in their own environment. I carefully follow all owner instructions and keep to the pet’s usual routine. I always ensure doors and gates are securely closed, pets are leashed during walks, and homes are treated with respect. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Sheila was amazing! She took such good care of my girls and continued to update me throughout my whole trip! It was the first time I felt comfortable leaving and would definitely book her again!!”

“Shaune was amazing with our two kitties! She even got our timid kitty to come out, and he never comes out of his hiding spot for strangers! Shaune was very communicative and we felt very comfortable that our boys were very well taken care of. We will rebook Shaune every time we need a Rover!”

About: I’ve taken care of numerous dogs since I was 8. Close friends, family, and others around the neighborhood have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and make sure their pet gets the best care possible. I am currently working part time which gives me time to actively take care of an animal, usually any early morning times work even late evenings! I have a fenced backyard and two fur babies that are friendly with other dogs and your pet can be crated if need be for alone time!
About: I use the animals as motivation, being able to get up and seeing a happy, smiling, energetic pet is heart melting. I’m willing to walk and or house sit your pet. I have pets of my own and know what the bond is like. Animals are lime humans they have feelings and you don’t want to leave someone who’s like a child or sibling alone. That’s where I come in to be that extra support and learn to love and bond with your pet. I’m available at any time and can be flexible, working on your time and schedule. I’m currently in college and attend ferris state university to be a social worker. I’m all smiles and joy when it comes to working with and in the community. 😁
“Shelly was great with my 2 year old Pitbull Dalmatian mix, I highly recommend! Shelly came for a meet & greet on very short notice & impressed me immediately. She was very gentle & comforting to my timid, reactive, & nervous momma from the 1st moment they met! Shelly is punctual, trustworthy, & very good with communicating (even checked how many treats she should be giving?) to owners! I will 100% sure have Shelly sit for my baby again! Thank You Shelly!!”

“You will not find a better cat sitter than Amber! She gives our pets so much love and attention. I cannot say enough about how helpful and thoughtful she is. Amber always goes above and beyond for us!”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was born, they are family and truly mean so much to me, I enjoy my time with all animals. Looking for a job that will allow me to have time to study for school as well. Also, will allow me to get my daily steps in with your fur babies. It would be very helpful if you let me know what your dog likes to play with, what times they eat, etc so we can make sure there having the best time.
About: I started house sitting for neighbor's pets when I was a child and began volunteering at an animal shelter when I was 15. I went on to be employed at the Dearborn Animal Shelter as an adult where I gained important experience in caring for several animals with different needs at once. I have volunteered at two other shelters since then. I have extensive animal care experience from pet sitting, working at animal shelters, fostering animals, and my undergraduate degree in animal science. I currently work full time Monday - Friday, but I am available for drop-in visits before 8am, at noon, and after 5pm on weekdays. I am available during most times of the day on weekends for drop-in visits. For walks, I am available before 8am and after 5pm on weekdays and most times of the day on weekends. I am available for drop-in visits three times per day on weekdays: before 8am, noon, and after 5pm. On weekends I am available during most of the day. I am available for dog walking on weekdays before 8am and after 5pm. On weekends I am available for most of the day. I will provide updates and pictures of your pet while you are away and I will call you immediately you if I notice anything unusual or concerning about your pet. I will also make sure to clean up any pet related messes in your home.
About: I grew up in a house with dogs both large and small and having the responsibility of helping to care for them. When I moved into my current home and getting a dog was a possibility I went to the shelter and found my perfect buddy. I love dogs and they are an important part of my life. I like to find things that engage my dog when he plays so he is stimulated mentally as well as physically. I hope this leads to a long and healthy life for him! I have always cared for animals and to be able to provide them with a happy and healthy life is a great joy. I have potty trained puppies, crate trained adult dogs, and taught tricks.
