Dog Sitting East Lansing

“Alexander seemed to do a good job with my cat Carlos, sending me photo's etc. However apparently Carlos wasn't fond of Alex and seemed aggressive according to Alex. I am sorry about that. Alex gave me peace of mind that my cat was Oaky.”

“Allison is so sweet with my cat! She does a great job sending pictures and keeping me updated :)) I have booked her twice now and there is no one else I would want to watch my cat”

About: I have 2 dogs of my own and have helped in training them since they were puppies. Now they are 4 and 5, and before I moved to East Lansing I walked and played with them almost everyday. I will give your dogs personal and attentive care to fill the puppy void in my life. I am a full time student living in East Lansing, I have availability Mon Wed Fri as well as most weekends, I have a car and can drive wherever needed! I can do drop in’s multiple times a day for walks and feeding or spend the night at your home to look after your beloved pets

“Erin did a lovely job feeding our cat according to our instructions, playing with our cat, and making sure our home was secure. Our cat was very content when we returned.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life! I always had cats and dogs growing up, and as I got older I ended up caring for lizards, fish, horses, guinea pigs, hamsters, and more! I work a very flexible full time job, and work from home when I want to, so I am very flexible! I am able to leave work and come back whenever if I am in office (besides the occasional meetings). I am willing to come to anyone’s home to care for any pets. I am pretty adaptable! I have (unfortunate) experience with dealing with unexpected events such as skunk encounters.

“Cari is very reliable and a great communicator!”

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and currently care for two of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I also help care for my sister’s cat when needed. What sets me apart is that I have experience caring for a senior dog, including giving oral medication, joint supplements, and applying eye and ear medication as needed. I’m also comfortable teaching basic tricks and engaging dogs mentally through training and play. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very responsible, reliable, and patient, and I always treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on most weekdays, as well as weekends. I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have two dogs of my own, so caring for pets is already part of my daily life. I’m used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and keeping a consistent routine for pets. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away. I have experience with crate training and can easily crate dogs if needed, as well as follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. I currently have two friendly dogs, so I’m familiar with managing multiple pets in a calm and controlled environment. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like family.

“Ally was absolutely amazing with my cat! He came right up and snuggled her on their very first meeting and she made him feel very comfortable and loved while I was out of town. I’ll definitely be rebooking with Ally to watch the dog and cat(s) when I’m away in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have a Masters in Biomedical Veterinary science and will be attending Veterinary school in 2023. I’m known as the go to dog sitter amongst my friends. I treat every pet like it’s my own. I promise to give them all the love, cuddles, and play time they need. My veterinarian science background allows me to give your dog extra care. I currently am not working but have a baby with me at home. When your pet is staying with us your dog will be the only dog. I can walk your dog when needed and feed on schedule. We have a small female dog who will be staying with a family member if your doggy doesn’t like other dogs. We have a fenced yard and a designated fenced potty yard.

“Amazing! She was very nice and very caring to my cats. They seemed so happy with her and she was very open with her visits and left my home better than how I left it for her!”

“She is the absolute best! Our dogs always love seeing her and she is the kindest sitter we’ve had in a LONG time!”

“Maura was an absolutely wonderful caregiver for our 3 cats! She spent a lot of time with them and even our skittish cat came to greet and hang out with her. We received fun pics from each visit and all 3 cats were relaxed when we returned- happy to see us but definitely well taken care of! I highly recommend Maura for your pet care needs… Many thanks for taking such great care of them Maura?”

About: Hi there! I am a senior at Michigan State University with extensive firsthand experience raising and caring for energetic, intelligent rescue dogs. Having trained and managed an active Husky/Retriever mix, I understand the patience, structure, and mental stimulation required to keep dogs of all energy levels happy, calm, and safe. What Sets Me Apart: Comfort with High-Energy & Strong Breeds: I know how to reinforce positive leash habits, manage excitable behavior, and make sure high-energy pups get the physical exercise and structured play they need. Safety & Preparedness: Your pet’s health and security are my top priorities. I am highly attentive on walks, keep poison control protocols and local 24/7 emergency vet contacts on hand, and never take unnecessary risks with unfamiliar animals or environments. Reliable Schedule & Mobility: My campus schedule allows me to provide frequent check-ins, daytime potty breaks, and overnight presence. I have reliable personal transportation for prompt arrivals and safe transport whenever needed. Transparent Communication: You will receive timely updates, clear communication, and plenty of photos after every walk, drop-in, or stay so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. Whether your dog needs a structured walk, a mid-day check-in, or dedicated overnight companionship in your home, I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am a senior at MSU preparing for a career in dentistry, and that actually makes things work very well for looking after pets! Even though I study from home, this just means that I'm always on hand to give your dog frequent potty breaks, offer continuous companionship, and provide focused, hands-on attention any time it wants them. My only classes that take place on campus last between one and two hours, so I never stay away for long. As a result, my schedule is an excellent match for house sitting or drop-ins—your dog receives steady companionship and frequent potty breaks, and I get a much-needed opportunity to get out of the textbooks for a walk. Plus, my weekends are entirely free! Safety is always my top priority when looking after your dog. Since I brought up a hyperactive and clever Husky mix, I am constantly watchful for things such as door-dashing, securing objects, and making certain that nothing dangerous is accessible. When I am in your home, I regard your property with the utmost respect and make sure that everything remains secure. While on walks, I stay very aware of my surroundings to avoid any danger or harmful debris. Additionally, I drive my own car, so in the event of an emergency (God forbid), I will be able to take your dog safely to the vet.

“Persephone took good care of my cat Pirate. Every check-in, she sent photo updates. In addition to daily food/water/litter, she also made sure Pirate was in good mood. I highly recommend her, and would love to ask her for help again.”

About: Hi there! My name is Taniya and I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for the past 4 years for families in my neighborhood. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine I absolutely love dogs! I have a sweet pup of my own named Pepper. She’s a 2 year old toy poodle and Yorkie mix with a big personality in a small body! While she stays at home with my mom, I bring all that love and experience with me when I care for other fur babies. I treat every dog like they’re my own safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, a walk, or just some cuddle time, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work at Michigan State University, but my schedule is flexible, and I’m available Monday through Sunday for walks, drop-ins, and cuddles! If you’re located near MSU’s campus, you’re in luck there are so many beautiful trails and green spaces I can take your dog to for fun, safe, and enriching walks. I’m all about making sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, some fresh air, or a long walk to burn off energy, I’m here to help. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and needs to make sure they feel at ease. In my client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely from feeding schedules and walk times to any special care needs. I always make sure pets feel loved, whether that means extra belly rubs, playtime, or simply keeping them company. If I’m caring for a pet in my own home, I make sure they have a cozy, safe space to relax. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and offer plenty of attention, walks, and play throughout the day. No matter the setting, I treat every pet like family!

“Taylor did great with my puppy Ozzy! She was quick with communication and followed instructions that I left for her. I would definitely trust her to watch Ozzy again!”

About: Every animal: small, big, furry, bald, loud, quiet and more, I have a strong love for. I always try to volunteer at adoption events, shelters and rescues whenever I have the time. Animals are great. They're just little guys!!! If your friend needs a friend for a little bit, I'm the guy! I've had my little furry friend for 7+ years now, and he's literally my baby. I'll take care of your's just like if they were my own :) I currently work weekends overnight, but my schedule is open Sun-Sat just unavailable in the evenings on weekends! I can start at any time in the day that works for you! Whenever I’m home, my dog is my number one priority always. I take consideration of every little detail, and I always have my eye on him. If he’s ever upset it’s probably just because he’s tired !

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 19 years old I love dogs I currently even check up on my in laws dog when they go on vacation. I have a very open schedule I’m a at home taking care of my daughter and my 2 dogs. So I do have a very open schedule might as well use it. Play with them give them attention give them treats when I can take them outside take a walk on the neighborhood especially when it’s warm out.

About: I absolutely love animals and would love to take care of yours. I can take care of the biggest dog down to the tiniest fish. Just give me the instructions and I'll follow it to a T! Any health concerns will be mentioned right away during my time with your pet, including grooming (such as nail clipping, long nails are detrimental to a dog's health!), and anything that may seem off that was not initially mentioned. I will make sure they are clean and prepped for your return and can provide as many updates be it photos or text with no problem at all. I have some knowledge on training, so if you need an attitude fix or help with basic training, I can definitely try! I can take bites, scratches, barking, hissing, etc. 9 times outta 10, it was probably my fault I got bit/scratched anyway because I wasn't paying attention to their body language. My schedule is currently open to any time you need me to take care of your loved ones! Even the most complicated schedule is doable. I supervise all animals no matter their situation. I make sure they're behaving normally and whatever the protocol is for when I'm away from home, that is followed exactly. For instance, I kennel my dog(s) when I leave from my home so they don't get into anything dangerous or tear up the household. I have had one client where I needed to kennel one dog downstairs and the other kept upstairs and have a baby gate seperate the floors. Another client requested I exercise their dog first before leaving the home for any extended period of time.

About: Hi! I’m Ema, and I absolutely love spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have several years of experience with both dog walking and pet sitting, and I treat every pup like they’re my own. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping your dog company while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved. I’ve worked with energetic puppies, older dogs who need a gentler pace, and everything in between. You can count on me to provide reliable, caring service and plenty of updates while you're away. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I am currently working full-time hours from 8-4 and working from home on Fridays. I am available for early morning and evening walks/runs, as I live an active lifestyle. I have open weekend availability. I have an unfenced yard and lots of indoor living space. I live in a walkable area with many dog parks nearby. I can easily crate your dog if needed.
