About: I have always had dogs growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I've taken care of dogs ranging in all different sizes and breeds most my life. I have experience in dog care from volunteering at Harbor Humane Society's and animal shelters along with caretaking for dogs at home. I have experience in catering to old and newborn dogs aswell as dogs that require medications and "extra" help around the house. I'm currently working from home. My schedule is very flexible between Sunday and Saturday so please feel free to ask for any services that need done. I'm more then happy to be of some service for your furry best friend! I care for pets as if they are my own and treated with the utmost respect and safety as if they were royalty. If they need any special treatment or needs I will gladly accommodate them. Examples would be crates, treats, medicine, routines, animal food, etc.
“Amanda has been walking our puppy, Appa, for a couple weeks now and we appreciate how flexible she is. Our schedule is constantly changing and our dog can be a handful at times but she is super patient!”
About: I've been caring for pets at home for 20+ years. I'm a cat and a dog mom, though I also have experience working with birds and reptiles at work as well. I'm a Licensed Veterinary Technician, the veterinary equivalent of a nurse. I started my career in veterinary medicine in 2020 and became licensed in 2022. I worked in animal emergency medicine for three years and have worked in day practice for about a year and a half. I have a lot of experience medicating animals and would be happy to assist with this when needed. Caring for animals is not only my hobby, but also my career. I love all animal kiddos of the furry, feathery, and scaly variety 💓 I work 10-12 hour days at work, but when needed I am usually able to leave my job over lunch to take care of pets (mine or someone else's). I believe leashing pets is very important, as well as following pet parent instructions carefully. And of course, I will use my knowledge as an LVT to provide the most safe and thorough service possible.
“I was out of town for a week and Sarah really went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were taken care of! She took them on daily walks and spent time with them at the dog park, and kept me well informed on how they were doing. I would definitely recommend Sarah to watch your fur babies!”
About: I currently work the doggy day camp at Petsmart. I have worked with the Humane Animal Treatment society and Bronston Animal Shelter with socialization and training. I had dogs growing up and trained them and cared for them. I have even walked dogs for the people around my neighborhood. Also, I have a dog of my own. I do have a puppy that is 4 years old, but he is very friendly. I live near a park so the dogs can run/play and I know my puppy would love to join if allowed. I’m currently looking for a job, so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend. I am available any time of the day. I keep my puppy on a strict schedule. Lots of time to play, go for walks, and training times. I feed him around 9:30 am and 7 pm
“Incredible with our high energy dogs, Caroline was wonderful, on time and great with communicating about any change. We are happy we went with her, she went above and beyond with our black Rottsky girl in the sun, making sure she got shade on the walks when it was getting warm! We definitely plan on booking with Caroline again!”
About: I have always had animals my whole life to take care of. Im always called upon when family or friends need help with their own. I currently am a stay at home dog mom so I am available to tend to your animals needs whenever you need me to be. I have a large fenced in yard for your pups to enjoy. I have 2 pugs of my own who love making friends with any sized dog.
About: First off, I am that person who constant smiles when seeing a dog. I have always enjoyed them and the happiness they bring. What I offer is dog walking, drop in dog care and house sitting. I can stay as for as long as you need. My family dog growing up was Jake the blue healer/ lab mix. He was a great dog and brought tons of joy. Never turned down walks or play time and belly rubs. Currently my wife I have an 90 pound lab/mastiff mix who is 6 and a 65 pound German Shorthair Pointer who is 4 years old. Both have tons of personality and are huge lovers. I have experience with caring for dogs big and small with different personalities. I think it is important to interact and play with a dog. While I’m looking for extra money, it’s more about being able to help someone and their dog out. I honestly hope can help you and your dogs and if you need anything just let me know. I have open availability in the mornings and most weekends, I work part time Monday-Thursday, 2:00-6:00pm but otherwise am usually available. I am happy to work around what you need as far as a schedule. My pets have a fenced in yard, both have been crate trained so I do have experience with that as far as getting dogs into crates is concerned.
About: I always have been a huge pet lover since a kid and I enjoy taking care of family and friends animals when needed. I take care of every pet as if it were my own and I believe animals are family too. I’m currently working part time so I have a open and flexible schedule! Working around your busy schedule is something I can do while providing pet care. I am very detail oriented when it comes to taking care of animals, I do everything your animal needs just as if it’s owners were home. I will try to make your pet as comfortable as it can be while in my care.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I also started working as a dog walker/ “adopter” when I was 9 years old. A local dog store teamed with the harbor humane society to help get dogs adopted in saugatuck over the weekends. And I was the one to care for them and try to find them a home! We placed over 200 dogs and kept them until they found a home! I myself have a dog, 5 chickens and a cat. All of whom I love dearly! Unfortunately my dog doesn’t play well with others so I need to get my new pet fix outside of my home. I currently work full time so it would be difficult for me to tend to my own pets and others during the week days. But weekends are wide open! I wake up (my dog wakes me up) around 6 most days, feed and let everyone out and depending on the weather typically stay outside with them all day. Morning and evening feedings and potty breaks every hour or so is standard when I’m home and can’t be outside. I have a lot of experience with all sorts of animal behavior so I can easily handle it all! Whether it’s walking a dog that pulls or reacts to squirrels, I have no concerns. I also have personal experience with aggressive pets and pets that don’t stay in the yard. I know from personal experience the importance to follow directions provided by a pet owner.
About: I've had cats growing up, but 5 years ago I got my first dog and fell in love! I've walked friends dogs and have done drop in visits! I'm a SAHM of 2 boys so we are always up and moving. I have a fenced in backyard that my 5 year old dog would love to play out in with your pet! I have a fenced in yard. 1 dog that will love to have a play mate! I can crate your dog if needed and help with basic commands!
About: Have years of experience working with dogs from puppies to adult ages. Currently a dog mom to a 3 year old golden retriever, can handle energetic dogs I work part-time during the week and have many open weekends for your dog walking and dog sitting needs! I am very active with my own dog and love taking care of others. I plan to ensure all pups are treated with proper care according to their current needs. There is no such thing as too high maintenance in my eyes for dogs, they deserve the best care and I love making them as happy and comfortable as possible.

“I've known Sam for over 6 years now and he's watched over both of my dogs for over 4 and a half years. One of my dogs is getting up there in age and needs daily medications and accommodations for his health. Sam does a fantastic job at keeping my older dog Bear happy, medicated, and safe. I've never had any problems or complications with Sam and he's always been able to work with my schedule. His customer service is very informative and caring. I've always got a text or call if he had any questions and keeps me updated often. He has a very upbeat and compassionate personality that helps keep me confident in his pet care for my animals and puts there happiness and safety as his top priority.

Brooke C.
“Brooke has a dog herself and she gives her dog all of her love and attention. She is attentive, thoughtful, and has a big heart for all animals. She has watched my dog many times. She plays, feeds, and waters my dog with no complaints. She is active and is always down to excercise. She does such a good job that whenever she comes over, my puppy runs towards her, gives her kisses, shakes her butt, and whimpers because she is so happy to see Brooke. Brooke is a fantastic person and your dog will think so too!”
