About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life and finally got my own pup in 2023. I love all breeds, sizes and ages and cater my care specific to every dog’s needs. I am very patient and keep up with guidelines and research to ensure I’m doing my best as a dog mom and carer of animals in a daily basis. Full time pet sitter, meaning I’m home all day with flexibility every day. I love getting my steps in, so I am more than happy to take your pup on long walks! While boarding or daycare with me, your dog will join me and Killian on our walks, get treats, lick mats (with your consent of course) and cuddles. I am a trustworthy person who treats every being and environment like her own. I understand animal’s body language and barks/growls and will ensure their safety and comfort. Im an introvert, so I stay home most days and when I do step out, it’s only for a few hours and I do have a pet camera to keep an eye on the doggos. I love dogs and cats of all sizes and am able to handle big dogs on walks as my boy is 80lbs. I prioritize their safety, comfort and enrichment. I live near Roverwest, so just lmk if you’re comfortable with me taking your dog over!

About: I don't actually call myself that, that's what my friends say I am. I've literally never met a dog I didn't get on famously with. I respect the fact that they are individuals with their own needs. I don't mean to sound too self assured with the title, but I earned it from friends. Whether it's running on the Lake Michigan shore or just finding a nice sunny spot to sit for a while, your pup is going to have a fulfilling day. I have huge flexibility so no worries! A last minute trip or planned weeks in advance, we can work something out. I'm here for you! Even same day! I strive for communication as much as possible between animal and human. If they're not feeling like socializing, I don't force anything. Everyone has different needs. My experience in a dog daycare really helped me read and understand dog body language to head off any issues that may arise when you're watching 12 dogs.

About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.

“If you’re looking for a dog walker I highly recommend Melissa. She was prompt, professional, and took excellent care of my small dog. She asked relevant questions about my dog before leaving for the walk, and afterwards gave me a thorough update of the walk. I feel comfortable with her in charge of my beloved sweet furry friend!!”

About: Hi! I’m Hannah and I’m an animal lover who understands that pets are family. While I don’t have pets of my own, one of the reasons I love pet sitting is that I get to enjoy spoiling them and spending quality time with them! I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of love while you’re away. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping them on their normal routine and in an environment where they feel at ease. I’ve been pet sitting for family members for the past 10 years and also spent some time dog walking during college. I’m now looking to take on some additional opportunities to spend time with and care for other pet families in my community. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your furry family members with the same care and attention I’d want for my own! I currently work a hybrid full time job, I am home 3 days a week and in office 2. Those days are flexible from week to week which allows me to be flexible with the schedule of your pets! I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when inviting someone into your home to care for your pets. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own, and I take the responsibility of caring for your pets very seriously. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any household guidelines you provide. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m attentive to their behavior and surroundings and will make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure to help prevent any escapes or accidents. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy, safe, and being well cared for. My goal is to leave your home just as I found it while giving your pets plenty of love and attention!

About: What sets me apart is both my personal and professional experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently work at Dogtopia, where I care for and supervise dogs daily. This has helped me become patient, attentive, and comfortable working with different temperaments and energy levels. I also have experience with both senior dogs and puppies. My senior dog, Otis, had arthritis, so I learned how important patience, comfort, and attentive care are for older pets. I also helped raise and train our pug puppy with basic training, routines, and socialization. Because of these experiences, I understand that every pet has different needs depending on their age and personality, and I always try to make pets feel safe, active, and cared for like they’re my own.⭐️😊 Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work at Dogtopia, where I help maintain a safe, clean, and fun environment for dogs of all sizes and personalities. 🐾 My job has taught me the importance of paying close attention to dogs’ behavior, safety, and overall well-being throughout the day. When I’m home, I also spend a lot of time caring for my own dog. I enjoy taking him on long walks by the lake, staying active with him through runs and playtime, and making sure he gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care every day.🦮🏃‍♀️❤️ When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure the environment is clean and secure by checking doors, gates, food, and anything that could be unsafe or easily gotten into by curious pets.🤗 I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, energy level, and individual needs to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while their owner is away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication reminders, or simply giving them attention and companionship, I always try to make pets feel safe, cared for, and at home.

About: My dog care history began when I was in middle school and became caretaker for my family dog, Charlie (a Shiba inu mix). I have walked and cared for dogs of many different sizes and all ages both in my personal life and professionally. I have over 3 years if experience at doggy daycares. In my personal life I have cared for my dilute tortie Smokie for 7 of her 8 years. I have also cared for reptiles and amphibians at the Urban Ecology Center and am trained to handle snapping turtles. I love animals of all kinds. I work part time and currently have a very open availability. I am willing to work weekends and holidays. Please ask me if I'm available! I believe in the importance of safety, health, and enrichment. Your animals needs - both physical and emotional - are a priority to me. I put in the time and effort your animal deserves.

About: Hi! My name is Nikita. I'm currently looking to gain more experience with dogs and other animals. I'm trying to gain experience in order to look into becoming a dog trainer. So if you decide to choose me to look after your pets I may practice with your dog! Don't worry I'll be nice, I practice with several different styles of training. While I may not have a lot of professional dog experience, I have been around all sorts of animals my entire life. Whether it's my dog that I currently own or the several dogs that I grew up around in my family. I've always had some sort of animal living around me, and I've always had a passion for caring for them.

“Melainie is so great with our chihuahua mix, Bowser. Bowser is a great judge of character and is very selective with who he will allow to rub his belly and he loved Melainie the second he met her!”

About: I am a part time college student. I am going to school to get my ECE Degree. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 by volunteering at humane societies and having my own dogs. I also worked at a doggy daycares throughout Florida and Wisconsin. I love all dogs like they are my children. I would love to own my own rescue center but as of now I want to gain more experience with taking care of different breeds and just express my love of animals to the world. I hope that you choose me to be a temporary parent for your dog and that he or she is in perfect hands and will feel at home. Thank you. Hopefully we speak soon. I work third shift for Target and dog sit during the day. I make sure they are taken out three-four times and feed twice a day. I care for them like they are children. Go on walks, feed, cuddle. Run like crazy and crash from exhaustion. I also love getting to know the dogs personality.
