“I can't recommend Mckenna enough. She took such wonderful care of my dog, Bear. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and professional, which gave me so much confidence leaving both my baby and my home in her care. She kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and lots of photos, which I truly appreciated. It meant the world to me and helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. It was clear that Bear was getting plenty of attention, love, and excellent care. Knowing he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for made it so much easier for us to enjoy our time away. Mckenna is genuinely one of the kindest people I've met, and her love for animals shines through in everything she does. She is such a sweet, genuine person, and I felt like I could trust her immediately. It's not always easy to leave your pet with someone else, but she made it effortless. I trusted her completely, and she exceeded all expectations. I am so grateful for the care she provided and would happily book with her again in the future. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. Highly recommend.”

“This was our first time having Bailey watch Trooper, and it was his first time being at a doggie sitters home. Bailey was very calm and reassuring with us on our meet and greet. When dropping him off for his stay we went over his needs since he is older with meds, food and etc. She did awesome with him while he was there and he had a great time with meeting/socializing with other doggies all sizes and ages. Would love to have Troops stay with her again!!”

“Bonnie surpassed all expectations! My pups took to her immediately at the meet and greet, and were showered with attention during the overnight housesitting. Bonnie brought treats and ruffs for my dogs and sent several pictures and dates over the 2 days. My German Shepherd is especially a nervous Nelly, but he was happy and at ease with Bonnie right away. Caring for two big dogs is not the easiest, but Bonnie did an amazing job. I was so relieved I didn’t have to leave them at daycare and that they were being so well cared for. If you can work with Bonnie, do it! I am so happy to have found a reliable and enthusiastic carer for my dogs.”

“We have had Randi several times to stay at our house with our senior dog Ellie. Randi takes better care of Ellie than we do! She is very good at giving Ellie all of her different medications and taking her out for several walks during the day, she pays attention to exactly how Ellie is feeling and adjusts her care accordingly. She has great advice on healthy snacks for Ellie and non toxic skin care. She truly cares for our dog and we are grateful to know she is in good hands while we are away! Randi is also great with communication, even if I don’t always respond, she still sends me lots of pictures and updates so I know what’s going on. Thank you Randi!!!”
“Alyssa was great with our two dogs for the 3 nights in our home boarding. She is very friendly, played with the dog’s outside, and sent us updates on how they were doing. Would recommend to a friend!!”

About: I’ve taken care of my family pats ever since I was young, always had dogs and cats, I love all of my pets and spending time with them, can’t wait to meet yours and all of their quirks!! I’m only busy one day a week right now, which is Sunday's. Obviously there are days that I’m busy with friends or family or babysitting, something along those lines :) I can’t bring any pets to my home, my pets are shy lol, but of course any special feeding requirements or any special requirements in general, I love to play, keeps me entertained to :)
“Gabby gave us great peace of mind while we were gone for 4 days, the first time we had ever used Rover and left our dog with someone other than family! Our dog and house were well cared for and she gave great updates, often with perfect timing throughout the day when we were starting to wonder how he was doing. We have great confidence in reaching out to her for future trips!”

About: I’ve taken care of & shown all kinds & sizes of dogs since I was 8. Currently only have one dog, but he’s a big boy. I’ve showed Golden, Poms, GSD, husky and our current pet is a Berner/Pyrenees. Groomed all of them too. Also experienced with livestock, so I can handle anything! Grew up with horses, goats, cats and rabbits. Super excited to meet your baby! I am looking to fill some time, so I would be super excited to visit your pet! I’m also very flexible on scheduling as well. I will try to keep your pet to their normal schedule, so even if you are gone, they will not be too upset. I respect your property, and will clean up after the dog & myself to the best of my ability.
About: I’ve always had pets or sitted pets growing up and my love for animals has grown into my adulthood even more and I want to make it apart of my everyday life. I have experience with pet care from having my own pets over the years, pet sitting and volunteering. I have experience with all different sizes, breeds and ages of dogs and I also have plenty of experience with cats. I am available everyday day throughout all hours. I am able to tend to the pets at all times. So if you have an animal with high needs I can be there for them! I have several walking distance parks and trails. I do not have my own yard but I am able to take the pets for walks. I also have pets of my own that get along with other animals, so if your pet loves hanging out with other animals then my place is for you!

I have a dog of my own and I strive to care for others' pets as they are my own. I am currently a nursing student at Oakland University. I am in the accelerated program and my schedule changes every 6-7 weeks. Until 4/16, I have 12 hour clinical days at Troy Corewell on Thursdays and Sundays and class 3 days a week ending at 2 PM on Mondays and Wednesdays, then 10:30 AM on Tuesdays in the Auburn Hills area. I am also available in the Macomb and St. Clair areas. I am completely comfortable with staying in the home with pets to keep them on their routines in a familar environment. I have stayed one night up to 2 weeks, so I am flexible with whatever you or your pets may need. My dog loves to play with other dogs, so I can introduce them if requested.
“Mason was a terrific sittter/companion/care-giver for our house and 80 lb dog Ringo. She was diligent and kept in touch. Ringo was in good hands w Mason’s vet experience as she handled a small scrap on his paw expertly and with love. The house was well kept and Ringo has a new good friend.”

I am familiar and can easily handle the strength and slobber of a big dog, while also maintaining the delicate and agile spirit of a little pup. My dog, Josie, has bad skin allergies and terrible anxiety. She hates to see me leave, some times not even getting a drink or eating until I am back. I know it can be so hard to leave a pet, especially when you know they miss you so much, but I hope I can be the easement for both your baby and you that they will be safe and okay!

I can send updates all throughout the day with pictures, messages, or even a call. I want to ensure both you and your baby are comfortable and feel at ease when I come to help!
