Dog Sitting in Edwardsburg

About: Had golden retrievers growing up! They were the absolute sweetest. My brother and I were in charge of taking care of them when we were young. I am a stay at home mom to my sweet baby boy and our 4 year old black lab! Used to dog sit for a lot of my neighbors pups! Would love to help in any way I can with your dogs, big or small does not matter. Let me know if I can’t help in any way! I have my own four year old lab, I am very devoted to hanging out with my pup! We go on a walk every day & make sure to play outside as much as possible My own pup loves other friends and would be thrilled having another pup around! Stay at home mom with plenty of time to go on walks with the pups! We have loads of cuddle time, walks and play time. Unfortunately we don’t have a fenced in yard, but have plenty of space and neighbor dogs to play with on lease! We also have a patio that the pups can hang out on!

About: I have always had dogs in my life as pets. I have been house sitting for 10 years. My house sitting clients rely on me to exercise their dogs as well as feed and medicate their dogs. I have experience with all sizes and many breeds. I am currently working part time at a dog boarding/daycare/grooming facility and have lots of time in the evenings and afternoons for walks or drop in visits most days of the week. If you are interested in house sitting I work part time from 6:30am-11am everyday except Fridays. I would be in the home full time with your pet except for those few hours each morning. I will not be offering boarding in my home but I take pride in taking care of your pets in their own homes. I follow all instructions and make sure I’m very clear on parents wishes and routines. I take care of your pet as if they were my own!

“She was wonderful! I would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies. I am going to be using her again real soon.”

About: Growing up, I have always had 2-3 dogs in our household, and have showed them the upmost love, care, and affection as possible. I have grown up with many Chocolate Labs as well as a Sheltie and a Havanese. I’ve worked with all ages, from puppy to 16 years old. My dogs have always been and still are viewed as family which is why, as a dog owner, I would want the most trustworthy, compassionate, and responsible person taking care of them. I can assure you that I will treat your dog the way they are supposed to be treated, as family. I am available after 12:30 PM in the afternoon to walk your dog, or check up on them so they have some company throughout the day! My times are pretty flexible, so please reach out if you need the times to be flexible. While taking care of a pet, I think it it’s important to make sure they are comfortable. Making sure their water is full, fed on time, depending on the dog, getting the right exercise, and of course giving the pet love and attention. I love to play fetch with dogs and take them on walks so they can get outside and enjoy the outdoors.

“Victoria will always be our go to for our girls if she’s available! This is our second time having her watch them, and we have come home to extremely happy dogs both times (which is what matters most). She goes the extra mile when it comes to getting tons of pictures, having great communication, and making sure our girls feel loved while we are gone.”

“Lily was a blessing to have taken care of my senior fur baby that needed medication twice a day 🩷 I know it was hard on my fur baby for her family to be gone awhile, however Lily gave her excellent care and attention! I will certainly use her services again 🙂”

“Bethanie was super responsive, professional and left no room for worry in the caretaking of our five four-legged kids while we attended our daughter's wedding in Michigan! She was also kind enough to help tech-challenged me with the Rover app as well as sending photos during our time away?. Very impressed and grateful!”

“Hanling has been an amazing pet sitter for my cat, Peaches. Throughout my time away, she provided exceptional care and attention to Peaches' needs. Hanling was diligent with feeding, administering medication, and cleaning the litter box. She even noticed and addressed potential health concerns, going above and beyond to ensure Peaches' well-being. Her communication was excellent, keeping me updated with detailed messages and pictures. I felt at ease knowing Peaches was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Hanling for her professionalism, kindness, and genuine love for animals. Thank you, Hanling, for your outstanding care and support during this tough time!”

“Lori is really easy to talk to and work with. She did a drop in visit for me and showed up when she said she would and took pics. I trust Lori with my furbabies and would definitely use her again.”

About: I managed a pet store for 7 years. Handling dogs helping a groomer. I checked them in for appointments and checked them out for pick ups. Depends on what is needed. I work part time. I also work around my bookings. I’m very flexible. When I dog sit I make it all about the dog and treat them as if they are children. I prefer your home. I care for them by whatever directions or schedule you prefer if there on a routine or not. I love your dogs as if they were mine.

“Gail's first visit went well. She communicated promptly, explained any challenges she faced and spent time building familiarity with our dog. She even sent some photos which put my mind at ease.”

“We had a pretty scary event happen with one of our dogs, but Casey was wonderful and made sure he was okay, and kept us informed the whole time. We really appreciated her being there and trusted that she would take the best possible care of our dogs”

About: I was fortunate to grow up in a home that always had pets. I can’t remember a time that we weren’t taking in a stray and finding it a good home or being that good home because we were the only place that a critter could land safely, if only until finding the best family to call its own. In the past ten years, we have adopted 6 “last chance” senior dogs with varying health issues. It brought me such joy to know that their last days, weeks, months or even years were some of their best because they were loved by us. We are the go-to family for pet sitting as we have a 2 friendly dogs of our own, which allows us to meet other families with friendly dogs as well. We love the opportunity to care for the pets of others and love them as if they were our own during our time together. Whether it be a short visit, a long walk, a weekend getaway, or that two week European vacation you've been waiting on bated breath for, I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your beloved pet. We have 6 young adult children who are now relatively self sufficient. This is leaving me with time to invest in loving others, four (or 3, or 2... Not picky at all) footed critters alike. I work from home, making my own schedule. I can be available any time with relatively short notice and am flexible to discuss extended stays. Let's chat to see if I may be able to help. We have the sweetest friendly 4 year old female dog that rules the roost here. She was a rescue and I'm a firm believer that "every pet should be loved as if they were the ultimate choice". While she may be a bit spoiled, she also takes such joy in being obedient. We find that this is a great balance. We also call a silly 2 year old bundle of beagle ours. She came to us in very rough shape, emaciated and infested with parasites. She was truly like having a newborn, as we took turns feeding, burping and potting her. She absolutely knows that she is home forever and wouldn't have it any other way. Our pets are family. We know the importance of staying active together, but also enjoy a movie (the girls truly appreciate when the popcorn comes out) In your home, my goal is to keep things as normal as possible by following your pet’s regular routine while incorporating trust building activities and all of the butt scratches, snoot boops and belly rubs that one pup could ever want. During drop in visits and walks, I want to keep our short time together filled with positive activities and reinforcement. (Belly rubs included)

“Nellie is a sitter you can count on to take the best care of your pet! She has watched my Ollie several times and treats him like her own. Highly recommend!”
