Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Fishkorn

“Katherine was amazing watching our pets for us, she left us detailed notes and photos of all our animals!! We would definitely use her again to watch our pets!”

“Mary Kay is wonderful. We have a special needs dog that needs regular drop-ins at specific times because he has a medication routine. Mary Kay is who we rely on for help. She is dependable, communicative, and considerate. And she always goes above and beyond for our special needs pup. She even takes the time to give some love to our cats when she drops in. It’s clear she cares for animals. We couldn’t ask for someone better to entrust our little loved ones to. Thank you Mary Kay!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give Rhonda more than 5 stars, I would! She was an absolutely incredible caregiver for my cat, Luna. This was my first time leaving Luna, and Rhonda provided so much peace of mind with her detailed updates and wonderful photos. She went above and beyond just the basics—she took the time to earn Luna's trust, played with her energetically, and noted all the little details about her personality. You can truly tell she has a genuine love for animals. My sometimes-standoffish kitty even warmed up to her by the end of the visits! Rhonda is reliable, caring, and an excellent communicator. I am so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking her again in the future. Don't hesitate to book with Rhonda—your pet will be in the best possible hands!”

“Michelle is absolutely wonderful and made us feel comfortable right from the start. She was very interactive and kind with our dog. Very reliable, trustworthy, and a great communicator. She really took the time and extra care with our dog. I really appreciated how attentive she was and that she took the time to encourage play with my senior dog. Would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve shared a special 15 years with the sweetest Blue Heeler, but in his old age he isn’t much for walks or play. That’s where your pups come in. I’ll be the adventure buddy they need to wear them out while you’re busy. I have a loving 16 year old cat who is my world. In addition to raising my pets and caring for friends pets, I’ve been professionally house and pet sitting through TrustedHousesitters for 5 years. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of many ages and breeds, as well as reptiles, rodents and birds. I’m experienced in giving medications and caring for animals with special needs. I’m a long time Detroiter who knows all the good hiking paths and dog parks. Let me show your animals the same love I give mine! I work for myself so my schedule is flexible. I can accommodate most needs with a few days notice. Since my animals are elderly I can’t have yours here or spend the night, but I can be available multiple times a day including a night check. I have walked dogs that pull with a force or lollygag along. I’ll find a pace that works for us both and keep your pup entertained. I keep a close watch as my guy likes to eat things off the ground. I like to bring dogs new places as often as I can to stimulate their mind. In your home I can come play with your animals, meet any food or medical needs, and just spend time together. I love to cuddle but I respect animals autonomy. I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own, unless you want me to knock the spoiling down a notch 😜

About: Grew up with pets but can’t have my own right now. I’m looking to help others and get to have be around pets part time! I am self employed with flexible hours every day of the week. I go on daily walks so having a dog by my side would make them even better! I’m kind and gentle and pets gravitate towards me. I’m great at problem solving and always love to send photo updates of your fur babies.

About: Hi everyone.. My name is Fefe and I love, love dogs/ cats. I grew up with 2-4 dogs at the time and cats and know how to take care of dogs/ puppies/cats from training your pet basic commands, walking them on a leash, playing and feeding them. 😁I provide pet sitting at your residence while you are away on travel, or need a night off for yourself. I promise you, your puppy/ dog/ cat will not miss you while you are gone. I will take good care of your baby, take them for long walks, play with them, teach them tricks, even cook a delicious doggie meal. 😀Let me know what your pet likes, or dislikes. I work part time and I am mostly available on weekends for pet sitting. Drop ins/ dog walking is mostly in the evening and sometimes during the day. I am reliable, trustworthy, ethical, and take pride in all my pet sitting services I provide. Your pet is in good hands as well as your home.

About: Hello! I’m Maranda and I love animals, like most people. I am open to all animals! Any pet in my home will be treated as my own, following guidelines set by you of course. I have most of my experience fromworking in Dog Day Care centers, as well as ten years on and off overnight dog and cat sitting for friends and family, so I am well versed in dog behaviors and body language. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby or babies! My three year old and I are always home except for quick runs to breakfast or the store. I’m rarely gone from the house for more than 2 hours. I ask that drop off/pick up times be between the times of 7am- 9pm. I am also available for transportation! I have dog seatbelt leashes as well and I can pick up starting at 9am and will end at 9pm, outside of emergencies. Thank you for understanding ☺️ A somewhat fenced yard, a chain link fence that is weak at the poles (working on updating) but! dogs would be leashed at all times regardless. I have a large three year old who is the only child in the house that is never left unattended around animals. The comfort of the dogs are most important. If your fur baby has any resource guarding, fear aggression, or herding behavior I ask that we do a meet and greet to make sure everyone is comfortable. My house is baby proofed, although maybe in a state of organized chaos thanks to said toddler, so animals will be safe as well. I have three cats, but when dogs are in the house they hang out in my basement, as that is their home base. The pups in my care have access to the entire first floor of my house, and can come upstairs with me with supervision if I do not have any cat guests lounging upstairs (: I have two crates, one is 36 inches and the other is 42 and they are equipped with beds and an optional crate cover if that is what the pup is used to. If drop off or pick up is needed of me, I have seat belt leashes for car safety. During drop in visits, each family and pet have their own groove so please forgive me if i ask so many questions! I want to maintain familiar routines and behaviors with your fur babies so they can be as comfortable as possible. For drop in visits, please tell explain where the food is kept and where the food bowls/litter boxes are. Some dogs have triggers that put them in an arousal/overstimulated state, (Hats, hoods, boots? big jackets, certain pitches, how a stranger enters the house etc) please tell me if your dog has any of these! I have worked with many rescue/shelter dogs, I can accommodate for your babies. Please give a heads up for any exciting things your dog likes on walks! How do they walk, do they chase? Etc.
