Dog Walkers in Drayton Plains, MI

“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't be happier. Thea was great with my dog Bailey. She came every morning to walk her since I had shoulder surgery. My smart dog laid by the door anxiously waiting for her walk. I plan to ask Thea to dog sit for my dog this spring. Thank you!”

“Ryan has been walking my dog,Polka, for the last week now and it’s been a godsend. I’m back working in the office and I’m gone all day. So to be able to trust Ryan to come and walk Polka and get her out of the house halfway through the day has been awesome. He’s reliable, responsible, and Polka loves him.”

“I highly recommend Mandy to others! She is flexible, timely, and responsible. Mandy treated my dogs as though they were her own & didn’t hesitate to go above and beyond for them. She followed their regimen to perfection & wasn’t scared to ask questions. Mandy is a great fit for our 4 legged friends!”

“Kira has been so fantastic with Doug, The Cooper, and Moshi. We could not be more pleased. She uses the Rover app to let us know when she arrives, how long Doug is on his walk, his “action” and the photos are priceless. We will continue to use her as long as possible. A+”

“We were hesitant to use Rover and leave our dog in a stranger’s hands, but Angela allayed our fears with her calm demeanor, amazing communication and caring personality. She is extremely responsive and reliable and when we come home, we know that our dog has been well taken care of. We are highly satisfied with dog care that Angela has been giving us and would certainly recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter or walker.”

“We love Tatiana - our dog has been happy and well cared for. So I am as well. I trust Tatiana with my pup, and you can too! Thanks Tatiana”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for family, friends and neighbors since I was a 16 years old. I have experience with older dogs and aggressive dogs. I like to stick to the routines the dog is used to keep your dog, happy and healthy. I grew up with dogs and owned and trained two Australian Cattle dogs. I strive to meet the unique needs of each pet. I am getting back into the workforce after a leave of absence to help with family health problems. I currently have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to work mornings, afternoons and evenings, depending on your needs. I will take your dog on walks, play with them and feed them and make sure they get lots of love. I do not take dogs into my home, as my dog likes being the only dog, but will happily pet sit or walk your dog or dogs.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters and dog walkers is my dog training and professional pet care background. I spent 2 years caring for service dogs in training, and I've spent over 3 years working in kennel environments with all different breeds, sizes, and temperaments of dogs, learning different types of handling and training styles. I have also been apprenticing a dog trainer for the past 2 and a half years, and have developed a strong understanding of dog body language and behavior. I want to go above and beyond and give your pets the best care. There are many skills I've learned at my previous jobs, including; dog first aid and CPR, the basics of fear free handling and cooperative care, how to administer different medications safely, how to quickly spot and begin treating possible health issues, and how to work dogs through some of the most common behavioral issues. In addition to the normal care your dogs receive, I can do short training sessions with your dog which is a great way to tire their brains out! I can work on basic obedience, leash manners, confidence building, etc. Message me for more information! ** I also have experience caring for reptiles and amphibians. If you need care for any exotic pets please message me for more info! Drop-ins: 30 minutes spent with your dogs, including: Normal care including pottying, feeding and medicating as necessary, physical and mental stimulation, light grooming, and snuggles. For longer bookings - $25/hr (2 hours minimum) Walks: 20-30 minutes walking around your neighborhood or a nearby location Letting your dog sniff around and stretch their legs! I prefer to walk one dog at a time vs multiple dogs at once Overnight sitting: Pricing on this starts at $125 a night. This includes staying with your dog overnight, and leaving them for no longer than 2-4 hours at a time in the day. Normal care including feeding, medicating, physical and mental stimulation, light grooming, and snuggle time. I will follow your dog's routine as closely as I can. I will also provide a lot of updates and send a lot of pictures!! In general, things that might make the price a little higher would be puppies who need more frequent potty breaks, doing multiple training sessions with them, taking them out on field trips, taking them to appointments, dogs with special medical or grooming requirements, etc. Please message me for more information!! -- I especially love working with puppies and setting up a strong foundation for them, or working with the "problem children" with some more difficult behavior... they remind me of my dog! I also love meeting more scared and shy dogs (especially chihuahuas)!! Wherever I work, I am usually the person who gets scared dogs to come out of their shell! Message me to set up a free meet n greet! I can't wait to meet you and your pet. :) Dog sitting and walking is currently my main source of income. This means any appointment can easily fit into my schedule, as long as I have some time to spend with my own dogs! All of my services are offered in the client's home. I treat every client's dog like they are my own. I mainly use positive reinforcement and I also have knowledge on fear free handling.

“So grateful to have Autumn coming everyday to walk the dogs and feed them. She is punctual, provides a great report and takes pix every time. She has also been so helpful and added services we needed added on last notice. We feel very comfortable and the dogs love her!”

“Amy is super reliable and so sweet and patient with our 12 year old, 90 pound Lab! We are so glad we found you, Amy!”

“Kirsti did a terrific job taking care of our 12 year old Maltipoo. She was on time for every scheduled walk and sent me lots of pics and video. She was even able to accommodate an unexpected request to extend care for an additional two days due to unexpected travel circumstances. I will definitely use Kirsti again and I highly recommend her.”

“Dora is excellent with Finn who can be a little much at times. Finn always brings Dora a toy which is the way he tells someone he likes them🐶”

About: I have been taking care of dogs all my life. I grew up with two and currently have a Husky and Terrier. Friends and family over the years have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, stop in and check on them for a simple belly scratch and potty break, all the way to staying the night to give them piece of mind while they're gone. I currently work full time. M-W I am able to stop into clients homes after I get off work, after 3. Thursday and Friday I work from home so besides meetings, I am able to drop in at any time of the day. Saturdays and Sundays I am pretty flexible as well :) Each client is different but I will learn what is best for their pet when I meet them. I won't crate their pet unless asked. Going outside with pets when they're out doing their business, and keeping them on a leash to keep them safe is my standard for caring for anyones pet. The parents know best and I'd follow their rules.

About: I have cared for family and friends pets for 18 years. From puppies and their training needs to 13 year old dogs who just want to snuggle. While not a professional trainer, I have trained many dogs on how to walk nicely on a lead and various tricks to add some fun your pet's life. My own dog is off lead trained and will stay close on walks. I work on a positive reward system of high value treats and praise, providing minor corrections to pets such as a sound or turning away to ignore unwanted behavior forcing them to thinking for my attention. I work for the school district during the year so until school is out I'm available only on Fridays after 5:30pm, all of Saturday and Sundays until 4:30pm. This, of course, will change once school is out for the summer. As a house sitter, I will stay in your home with your pets for the amount of time you'll be gone so they will always have company. Care instructions will be followed to the letter. I have my own boy and I do what I would want others to do for him. As a walker, I will go as far as your particular pet can go. If that's around the block, great! If it's further, even better! As I said I have my own dog so if you'd like your pet to have a walking buddy let me know and we can set up a meet and greet before any official walks! If you're in need of a drop in visit just for potty and playtime, that's fantastic! I'm more than happy to play with your furbaby!

About: As a life-long lover of animals, I’ve taken care of my own cats, dogs, horses, birds and other small animals my whole life. I have recently begun pet sitting for others and find that I really enjoy the opportunity to meet and spend time with other people’s pets. I’m currently semi-retired, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets while you are away. I’d love to keep them company and make sure they don’t miss any meals while you are away. I will spend time with your pets in your home and send you daily photos so you can see how they are doing while you are away.

“Excellent communicator, keeps me updated with everything! I feel 100% comfortable trusting April with my "babies". She has been a true lifesaver!”

I am also FEAR FREE & CPR certified ! I currently have full time availability as I just moved to Michigan from California and don’t have a full time job. In 2025 I will be attending school full time and my schedule may change. I will care for your pet in any way that you prefer ! Whether your dog is crate trained or not, whatever the pet parent is comfortable with is how the pet will be cared for.
