I am committed to making sure animals are fed, clean, and played with! I am available during all days and times of the week except for on Tuesdays/Thursdays! I can come to see your cat/dog twice daily if needed.

“We are new to the area and we’ve had to begin the search for a new friend to care for our hot dog. We needed a walker for her and found Denise. She is a lovely person, very sweet and kind. She is friendly and responsible as well, along with reliable...all of the qualities we were looking for. Now our only issue is...she is so great she is always booked! Oh well, we’ll use her whenever we can. Thanks, Denise!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, I have had 2 dogs- a Yorkshire terrier and golden retriever. So I am very fond of big and small dogs! I’m currently unemployed due to moving states, so I have plenty of free time to take care of pets and looking for something new! I work out so I would love to take the dogs for walks, and for them to play outside. I have a 2 story house for the animals to walk up and down the stairs, also a lenai if they would like to sit outside, I also live in a gated community so we have a big yard for the dogs to run around. I make sure to give the animals attention and respect always. Clients will always be updated daily!😊

About: Hello! 👋🏻I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs. Since the adoption of my first dog, Barney, at the age of 3, I have been hooked! Dogs truely are a human’s best friend. They are all unique and special in their own way. I have learned to recognize the differences in each animal, and use that information to provide them with the care they need. Your best friends are in good hands with me. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to help with your pet needs! I have grown up with dogs, cats, and horses. I currently have one senior furry boy named Frank and twin humans 😆. Our pets are apart of our home. They are treated with the upmost care and love at all times. We allow them on our furniture.

“Great job with my Pups!”


“Cece and Ron were amazing! Always willing to help and really great with my dog! Can’t recommend them enough.”


About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from a tiny 3lb Teacup Maltese to two 140lb+ Rottweilers. Growing up around dogs since I was 3, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I currently own four dogs, which I walk three times a day, and I’m comfortable handling dogs of any size or temperament. Additionally, I have 1200+ hours of volunteer experience at vet clinics, humane societies, and horse farms, which has further enhanced my skills in animal care and safety. Your fur baby will be in caring, experienced hands with me! I hope I'm given the opportunity to demonstrate my passion for animal care! Serving Gateway and surrounding areas. I'm currently working part time and will have plenty of time for dog walks! I'm available for those last minute walks and have no problem taking a walk for over an hour if needed. I'm here to make things easier for you and to make sure you dog has a great time and enjoys every minute of the experience. At my home, I provide a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for my dogs to interact, play, and relax. Each of my dogs has their own designated space, but they also enjoy group playtime, keeping them engaged and happy. I make sure that each of them gets individual attention tailored to their needs, whether it’s a walk, play session, or a calm cuddle. I maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and naps to help them feel secure and settled.

About: My heart truly belongs to the fur babies of this world!! I would absolutely enjoy making some extra income doing what I love most. I have taken 1 year of Vet Tech courses at Baker College. At the age of 16 I received my license and started Petsitting that very first week. I have 32+ years of experience being a Petsitter!!! I have worked in a Veterinary Clinic for a short time and have also worked at the Kent County Humane Society in Grand Rapids, MI. I have a lot of general knowledge in animal care and handling. I have a bit of experience in training dogs also. I would treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I have a lot of love to give and would love to get to know your fur baby/babies. ***If you book a drop in visit or walk the minimum I stay is 30 minutes. It’s not uncommon for me to hangout for up to an hour. I don’t view this as a job. It’s a honor and a pleasure to spend time with any and all fur babies so I’m often not in a hurry to leave. I’ve been a housekeeper for many years and have always done Petsitting/Pet Care on the side for my cleaning customers. Now that I am older I have given up the house cleaning and am just focusing on the fur babies. I moved down here to Florida a few years ago and decided I want to get back to petsitting. I was a former school bus driver back in Michigan. When I moved to Florida the thought of driving bus in this crazy traffic did not appeal to me. I became a store manager for a self storage facility down here but I’ve decided it’s time for me to get back to my passion. I want to care and love on your babies!!! I have one elderly cat and two dogs currently in my home. My cat has to be quarantined to one part of the house due to the fact my dog Molly has developed a fear of cats and can’t be trusted with Lucy. She also doesn’t like other dogs so I unfortunately can’t do any petsitting in my home. I have excellent references that can be provided. I understand it is scary to let a stranger watch your fur child so I will gladly provide references at your request. I will cater to your pets special needs and will do my best to provide them comfort and love while you are away. I offer a free meet and greet to go over all care instructions that will be needed while you are away. This gives us a bit to get to know one another. I’m so excited to meet you and your furry family members.

Do not currently own any pets I am a Flight Attendant. I create my own travel schedule, so I can be flexible with enough notice. When I’m home I’m completely flexible with my routine. We live on a quiet street great for long walks. We have a large lanai that is perfect for napping. Our neighborhood requires all animals to be leashed outside so I will be with your dog at all times.

About: I’ve grown up with big dogs my whole life so I’m a big fan of dogs of all sizes! This is my dream job, I can’t imagine being paid to walk and hang out with your pups!

I completely understand that your pets are your babies and am willing to follow any and all requests for each visit and client. I want your dogs and you happy!

About: I have had house hold and hunting dogs since I was a young child. From large to small I’ve always had a love for animals. Dogs and cats have always had a spot in my house for love and care.

I believe any pet should have the opportunity to run, play and relax. Crate service can be easily provided depending on animal size.


“I first chose Suiny because she lives nearby and is familiar with the neighborhood where she would be walking my boy while I was away for the day. But now that I have hired her once, I will definitely hire her again if the need arises. I was happy with her service. She showed up at the two times we agreed upon to walk my baby, and I felt comfortable leaving my baby with her and also giving her the key to my house. She sent me pictures of him out for his walks and even took in an Amazon package that had been left outside the front door. She also left a light on for him so he wouldn’t be scared when it got dark. :)”


About: I have two little dogs of my own raised from puppies to their now senior status. I'm comfortable with long and short walks, different breeds, sizes and energy levels. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walking throughout the week. I'm open to boarding once a positive relationship is established. My dogs are treated like children. A routine is helpful, but I prioritize their needs (playing, walking, feeding, etc.) throughout the day as they arise.

“Rebeca was awesome!!!!! She paid such great attention to detail, and went above and beyond for our doggos including filling their water, sending really cute pictures and videos every day, letting them walk long enough to make sure they both went to the bathroom even if it was more than asked for. You can tell when someone actually loves animals - and she is it! Super recommend her.”

Preston K.
“Preston K is a kind and loving pet owner. Frank is a rescue and has had many problems, but Preston has raised him lovingly and he has thrived! He is aging now, but Frank is kept comfortable and is very much a still an active part of their family. I have observed her care for other friends and families pets and they are treated like family. Schedules are kept, medications are given when needed, and in one case of our poor little anxiety dog, medication and food is given on schedule. Preston is a very active person. Frank loves to play ball, she would throw it for him until he would drop! Preston loves to excersise so if your dog loves to do that, then she is the pet caregiver for you! Preston is reliable, and trustworthly. I have had her in my home many times and feel completely comfortable.”

Animals are her passion and I would trust her to take as good of care of any of my precious pets in her home or in my own. I know they would be loved and happy!!
