About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and had dogs in my own home for 10+ years. I have had experience ranging from raising and training puppies to caring for senior dogs with special needs such as blindness and diabetes. I work remotely from my home and will make sure your pet has all the attention that they need. While I have your pet I will ensure they are only left alone briefly for necessary errands. I have a fenced backyard and one well mannered if energetic pup. Your dog will receive as much love and care as my own. From snuggles on the couch to long walks around the neighborhood and games of fetch in the back yard.

About: We have no pets of our own, so we love to dog-sit for everyone else! We only watch for one family at a time and whatever they do in your home, they can do in our house. Our kids love dogs and our whole family will treat your dog like part of our family. We will take your dog for walks, give them a lot of attention, and follow your instructions exactly as you ask. References available. Will offer a special rate for two dogs from the same family. We have really enjoyed getting to know so many different dogs, and we have done a lot of different things to accommodate their needs! I have gone to pick up a dog to stay at our house when the owner didn't drive, we have brushed their teeth when requested, given medications, followed special diets as provided by the owner, and generally done whatever is asked to make sure their loved one feels comfortable in our home. They will be pampered and get a lot of attention! Dogs are allowed to sleep on our bed, if that is what they prefer at their own home. Big fenced-in yard and they are always supervised when outside. We're about 15 minutes from Detroit Metro Airport, easy to get to the airport after bringing your dog to us. (Some people have left their car at our house and took an Uber to airport and it was cheaper than parking at the airport in the long-term lots! You can leave your car in our driveway if you want!) We're happy to have your dog with us! Someone is almost always home at our house! Your wonderful dog will have the run of the house and will be supervised outside for potty breaks every 4 hours. Wherever they sleep at home, they can sleep in our home. We have a fenced in yard and no dogs of our own. We are very protective of our guests! If they use a crate at your home, please bring one with you and we will only crate them if that is what they are used to at your home.

About: when I was little I was definitely afraid of animals until my godmother adopted two beautiful huskies when I was around 10. Since then I’ve learned I’m not only natural at caretaking but prefer time with animals more than people at this rate , ha ha! Since then I have become first in mind to be a walker and sitter for friends and family with pets. I’m currently a nursing student and I’m available weekends all day and weekdays after 2 PM with the exception Tuesdays and Fridays which are all day to spend with your furry friends. I am not currently offering services to bring home animals but I am open to sitting at your house as well as walking them when needed. All terms and needs can be discussed and tailored to your pet

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: After recently losing our two beloved fur babies back-to-back due to old age, our home has felt much quieter. We truly miss the love, companionship, and joy that pets bring each day, and we would be honored to care for your furry family members as if they were our own. Because I’m home full-time, your pets will receive plenty of attention, supervision, snuggles, and personalized care throughout the day. From hourly potty breaks and daily walks to playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment, their comfort and happiness are my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I promise to provide a safe, loving home where they’ll feel welcomed, cared for, and treated like family every step of the way. I do work from home so I’m able to provide multiple breaks at all times of the day! If your pet is on a certain schedule please let me know. Your pup is my pup when in my care! They’re allowed to lounge on furniture and cuddle with me! They’ll feel right at home. Your pet will feel loved!

Shelly made sure to be very quick to respond and to keep us updated every step of the way. When it was too cold to go outside for a walk (single digits!) she switched it up and played indoors. I mis booked the dates and she was extremely understanding and flexible which was so appreciated. Thank you Shelly!

About: I have raised hamsters, rabbits, dogs, and cats my whole life and love to take care of animals. I enjoy going for walks and would love to take your pet for one. Aside from loving animals, I am an avid musician and was a jazz major in undergrad before deciding to pursue a doctorate in audiology. I love gardening, cooking, reading, and watching TV with my cat beside me. If I pet-sit at your house, you can probably find me studying when I’m not playing with your pet(s). My name is Amina and I would love more pet-sitting and dog-walking gigs, so please message me! As a full-time doctoral student, most pet care will have to take place on the weekends or Tuesdays, possibly. Taking your pet for a walk or house-sitting would be ideal. I will work with you and your pet to ensure that they are safe and happy in their environment. I will always be by your pet’s side Please let me know what your pets unique needs are.

About: I’ve grown up with a family dog my entire life. I understand the importance of affection and physical activity for pups. Dogs are important creatures and deserve as much love and attention as we can give them. I currently work full time so at the moment I personally don’t have a dog. BUT that’s why I joined this app hoping I can get time with some furry friends. I’m free after 4 p.m. and on weekends! For dog walking - I live in a great are and super close to the greenway. Access to the greenway is great when finding a spot to walk dogs.

She was incredibly sweet, patient, and understanding with my dog who has separation anxiety. She handled everything calmly, even when my dog pulled a bit, and was happy to let me walk my other dog with them. Overall a wonderful experience, and I’d happily recommend her!
