“Dana did a great job, even handling a couple special situations. She took cute pictures of my pets, too. Look forward to having her care for my pets the next time! Highly recommended.”


“My cat Marcel can be a bit cranky and difficult. He is also diabetic and needs regular insulin injections. Jennifer was just wonderful with him, and I appreciated that she had experience giving medication. Her house was so clean and comfortable, and she had a very nice set-up for cats. When I picked him up he was so calm and content, I could tell that he had enjoyed his stay. He obviously really liked Jennifer and I was absolutely delighted with the exceptional care that she gave him.”


“Our two cats made fast friends with Betsy! She checked in on them while we were out of town and was very thorough and detailed in her notes. It was so reassuring knowing they were well taken care of!”


About: I’ve spent much of my life caring for family pets, including dogs and cats, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to look after a wide range of animals—chinchillas, hamsters, fish, ducks, horses, and more. These experiences have taught me a lot about how to keep animals comfortable, safe, and happy. When our family dog, Diesel, was a puppy, I took the lead in attending his behavioral and training classes. I also volunteer at the local humane society, where I help care for and comfort cats. I’m experienced in administering medications to both cats and dogs and always take care to follow an owner’s specific instructions and preferences. Animals have always been a part of my life—I truly can’t imagine it any other way. I work as a social worker at the hospital during the week, and spending time with animals is one of the ways I unwind and recharge. During the week, I work as a social worker in neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery at Mott. Outside of work, I volunteer at the humane society, assisting with daily tasks and helping to comfort cats and small mammals. I’m Fear Free certified and plan to integrate my understanding of animal behavior into my social work practice when appropriate. Caring for animals—whether through walking, feeding, cleaning, or simply offering companionship—is something I make time for regularly, typically a couple of times a week. I’m also actively involved with the Ronald McDonald House in Ann Arbor, where I serve as co-president of the Young Professionals Group. I love walking dogs and sitting with cats more than anything. My own Emotional Support Animal, Rosie, has been a profound asset to my life- she is the queen. I care for my pets dependent upon their medical and lifestyle needs. I provide space for cats and dogs to figure out their level or trust, and know the different signs of distress or anxiety from my Fear Free Training.

“Mike was absolutely great with my kitties! Followed all directions, paid close attention to my cat’s food and litter box behaviors (to watch for any changes), reported back to me, was responsive and very friendly/professional.”


“Would highly recommend Hadlie for all your pet-sitting needs. She is thorough, kind, and a true animal lover. She will treat your pets as she would her own. We came home after a week to a happy, healthy kitty and we never had to worry while away.”


“Brianna took excellent care of our cat while we were visiting family. She gave him lots of cuddles which he absolutely loves. We are delighted to have found Brianna and look forward to her caring for our cat the next time we're away.”



“Wow Emily was amazing! She is responsible, thoughtful, trustworthy, and our little cat loved her. She sent photos daily which helped ease our anxiety while we were away. We will definitely be looking to book Emily for house sitting again in the future!”


“Maeson was so so amazing! She did a great job with my cat and went above and beyond with her care. She gave detailed check ins after each visit and I felt very comfortable leaving my pet in her care.”


“Alyssa was wonderful with our fussy crew of cats (which include kittens, seniors who need meds administered, and a foster cat that has to be kept separate from the others. She was very communicative and attentive, and she took great care of them while we were gone. We will definitely book with her again!”


“Abbie was amazing! We have two very needy cats and she took care of them with no issues while we were on a holiday vacation for an extended period of time. We left her very specific instructions and Abbie followed them precisely. She even went above and beyond to spend some extra time socializing our cats, who are a bit fearful of new people. Abbie was responsive, always right on time, and was friendly and sociable. It is evident she is passionate and cares deeply for all animals. You won’t go wrong booking her for your pet’s needs. 10/10 A++++”


“Clare obviously loves animals and has a special relationship with my cat Cosmo. I know he is under excellent care when I’m gone. Clare is my go to person every time I need a pet sitter!”


“Sumonthip did a wonderful job of taking care of Byxie. She has a great deal of experience working with dogs and cats when she worked at a veterinary clinic. She was very patient with Byxie and knew how to handle her if Byxie got too excited to see her and tried to jump on her. Please give Sumonthip a $7.00 tip.”


About: I’ve had pets ever since I was kid, normally big dogs so I understand the necessity of letting them out on time and making sure they get all there energy out. I’ve also cared for puppies who are just like those big dogs! I’m currently working part time as a soccer coach, so I’ll be able to swing by during the day or stay the night whenever need be. I provide loving and reliable care for your furry family members right in the comfort of their own home. When I stay at your place, I make sure to maintain your pet's routine, ensuring they feel safe, secure, and happy while you're away. I'll spend quality time with your pets, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime. Whether it's going for walks, just hanging around, or providing meals and medication according to their schedule, I tailor my care to meet your pet's individual needs and preferences.

“Anna is absolutely the best! When she came initially, the dogs and my kids fell in love with her. She was kind, gentle, fun, and the dogs were taken such good care of! She gave lots of updates and cute pictures, the house was spotless when we got back, and the dogs were super happy and content. I have told all of our area friends about her and would use her again in a heartbeat!”


“Mary did a wonderful job! She was able to establish a good relationship with our normally very shy cat. The daily photos were very reassuring and everything went smoothly while we were away. I would definitely recommend Mary for Catsitting 😀”
