House Sitting Detroit Shoreway

“Alexa was outstanding in the way she cared for Kacey, our dog, as well as keeping the house so very clean. I hope to have her back again on our next travels.”

Sandra W.

“After an initial hiccup, she was very communicative and took great care of our animals while we were on vacation! She kept us up to speed with many pictures and when we returned home our house was as clean as we left it and our animals were calm and doing well.”

Joseph C.

“James is the best!! He has taken care of my reactive, anxious, senior pup and my senior cat many times. I can comfortable travel internationally for over a week without any worries. My pets love James so much and he’s an amazing house guest. Can’t recommend him highly enough!”

Grace L.

“Joe did a great job watching our older dog. He kept us up to date on how she was doing everyday and sent pics. Would definitely use him again!!”

Arlene U.

“Emily was great! She sent lots of pictures and made sure my dogs were taken care of while I was out of town, especially when one wasn’t feeling well. I would definitely have her pet sit again!”

About: Labs have been in my life since I was born, but I got my kitten at age 6, so I'll say that's when my real pet care experience began! Animals are such a significant part of my life that I got my bachelor's degree in zoology. I've practiced dairy goat husbandry, studied monkeys in the Surinamese rainforest, and worked as an animal keeper at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. Not only do I understand how to care for animals, but I'm a truly playful and active person. There's nothing better than romping around outside with a pup and wearing one another out! That being said, I helped care for my family dog Farrah in her senior years and during that time we shared some of the most tender and mellow moments. If my admiration of pets isn't yet clear, I also paint pet portraits and you can see some in my profile photos. I’m a morning person, up with the sun, so early walks and check-ins are no problem! I also have a hybrid work schedule, which supports my flexibility around pet care. Pets are family members and the magnitude of trust put towards a petsitter is not something I take for granted. I care deeply about helping my clients feel at ease when I'm caring for their beloved pets. I'm meticulous and detail-oriented in everything I do, and that translates to following pet care directions and routines to a T. I'm open to talking through all of your needs and concerns to help make the experience excellent for all involved.

“Jessica was great! She took on the sitting on short notice. She sent updates and photos and left the place tidy. I knew my boy Tucker was in good hands ♥️”

Laura S.

“Aspen did a great job with our dogs and would recommend her to anyone! She gave us updates and pictures throughout the stay and made us feel at ease.”

Ali W.

“Liz was outstanding! Her communication was excellent and she took wonderful care of our furry family member for us! Highly recommend!”

Jennifer T.

“Meg was great! Very communicative with lots of picture updates, reached out if she has a question about anything, and left the house in great condition. The dog and the cat both loved her.”

Kelsey T.

“Breon is a life saver. She always cares for the animals with the utmost love and care. But we got stuck in NYC with cancelled flights and having her ensure they were safe and cared for while we tried to get home, was a life saver.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with two large dogs of my own, one energetic and playful and one older, calmer pup. They’re both very social and love making new friends, so if your dog enjoys companionship, they’ll have built in buddies during their stay. We welcome dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m especially comfortable with large breeds, as my Labrador Retriever is 105 pounds and my Bernese Mountain Dog is 113 pounds, so I’m experienced handling bigger, stronger dogs on walks and during playtime. Your pup will get lots of attention, supervision, and outdoor time throughout the day. I’m also active and love being outside, so whether your dog prefers walks, runs, backyard playtime, or sticking to their normal routine, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, exercised, and right at home. I love getting to know each pup ahead of time, so I do require at least 3 days notice to allow for a meet and greet before booking. My husband and I both work from home full time, which allows us to provide frequent potty breaks and constant supervision. We also have separate office spaces, so if any dogs need a break from playtime or a calmer environment, we are able to separate them as needed. With two dogs of our own, we are fully stocked with the essentials including toys, treats, water bowls, beds, and more. We also have a fully fenced in yard with a gate, so the dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time without worry.

“Maddie was a wonderful sitter for our two big fur babies. She was always quick to respond to messages, provided pics, and went above and beyond to leave our home clean and ready for our return. She even managed to clean Odin's ears multiple times, which usually sends him running for the hills. A great experience, and very comforting knowing she was there with our pets. Highly recommended!”

Jacob M.

“Hannah was so lovely! She took great care of my pup and sent lots of photos. She took great care of my home as well. Would recommend and will be using her again!”

Katie L.

“Danielle was truly heaven sent while we were on our honeymoon. Our dog has special needs and she handled everything like a pro! Our pup even had some tummy troubles while she was there and she went absolutely above and beyond to take care of him until we could get back. We are so grateful to have found Danielle and we will absolutely book with her again!”

Maddi S.

“Emily is a fantastic dog sitter! We felt so comfortable having her house sit our two dogs, with one still being house trained, and we could actually relax on our vacation knowing that our dogs were in good care. She was flexible enough to do a meet and greet before we left for vacation and she constantly kept us updated with pictures of our dogs. She is so loving and caring and we could tell that she loves all dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter, you will not be disappointed!”

Nicole H.

“Riya was communicative and our boy was very comfortable with her while we were away. Getting all the photos and updates made us feel at ease and we’re thankful.”

Daniela S.

“Olesja did such a good job with our pup. He has some seriously special needs and Olesja was able to figure them out so quickly. He was so happy when we got back and our house was in great shape. We will absolutely be using Olesja again.”

Cody N.

“Super friendly with me & my pets, and made sure to send lots of updates! I came back to happy pets and I felt very good about leaving them with Elizabeth”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and I have an 18 year old pup at home! I’m very passionate about the quality of life for our furry friends, and can’t wait to meet yours! Safety and fun are my main priority. I’m working part time, so I’m looking to fill the gaps in my week with pet care! I can be flexible with scheduling given enough notice. I have an 18 year old dog at home, as well as a 3 year old cat. My animals are spoiled beyond belief, and taken care of diligently.
