“Julie was fantastic and came to our rescue when we were in a really tight spot and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We cannot wait to work with Julie again.”
“This was the first time we left Piper with a dog sitter. Kennedy did a fantastic job helping Piper feel safe and comfortable. She was prompt and provided great information about each visit as well as photos. She kept in close communication with us and responded to Pipers needs. We will definitely use Kennedy again! Thanks Kennedy!”
“Stephanie was great!! She was easy to communicate with and was very friendly. She was great with our dog and made sure she was well cared for while we were away. Highly recommend booking her, we definitely will again!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my home since I was 6. During college I got a dog of my own. Since I am in graduate school, he is staying with my boyfriend in Ames. After I was done with undergrad, I babysat many of my old teammates dogs and had great feedback. I have all the necessary skills and tools to care for any dog. I could also schedule a play date with my own dog if wanted! I am also a volunteer at furry friends as a dog walker in my free time. Since I am in my clinical year of PA school, my schedule is not really my own. It is whatever my preceptor is doing. I am normally in clinic from 8-5 Monday through Friday. Prefer a fenced in yard if you have multiple dogs but I have no problem walking them. I have no other preferences at this time.
“Tessa is seriously amazing. She is super reliable and goes out of her way to make time for my girls! I recently had to go out of town on short notice and she had no problem taking care of them when needed. She’s honestly so friendly and really cares about your pups! 100% would recommend her to anyone.☺️”

About: I’ve previously trained bird dogs under the professional dog training business H& H Gun Dogs. I have a Viszla, Great Dane, Bulldog, and painted turtle. I love all pets and have had them all my life. Very good at working with them. I work PRN as a caretaker so I do not work every day I either have mornings or evenings off if I am not away traveling. I am starting with dog walking as I do not feel comfortable being in a strangers home, if I get to know and trust you I can also let them out or move to dog watching occasionally.
About: We have adopted dogs from the animal shelter. We have had numerous cats because of the life on the farm. Our current dog is now 12 years old. I have also watched my Aunts' dogs. I am about to graduate high school and after that I will be available most days to walk, feed and play with dogs and pups. I make sure they have food and water at all times. My mom and I take our dog out regularly for walks and bathroom. I'd play with him often.

About: I had a dog that my family had for 10 years, i’ve walked, fed, played with him daily. As soon as I finish school I plan to get a dog of my own! I have also been responsible for dog sitting for 6 weeks with a 8 month old puppy, and did all routine cares for him. I am a part time patient care technician at UIHC, and I also occasionally nanny. I have an avid love for dogs, and since my family just recently lost ours due to heart disease, I look for any chance I can to get some extra dog love. I have a rather flexible schedule, and would love to help you out. I am a playful, gentle person who understands it takes pups time to warm up to new people. I would ensure the area is safe for the dog to be left alone when I leave.
About: Experience with caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I have a passion for special needs, sick and elderly pets. While not in class I would love to watch your pet(s) and care for them. I recently moved from Chicago to Macomb to pursue school. I have a love for outdoors! Hiking and enjoying trails is one of my favorite hobbies I would love to include your furry friend on! I am a nurse part time and pre-medicine student. My husband, Carlos, works from home and is an even bigger pet lover than myself! My work schedule is “as needed” meaning I make my own schedule, making me flexible for pet parents! My job is also less than a mile from home making me available almost at all times! I have a very spacious one bedroom apartment. I have been told by HVAC and Xfinity people that it is the nicest, largest, one in Macomb. There are also plenty of parks and trails nearby for when your furry friend is ready to explore. I am a home body most days, but of course when the weather is nice that changes! I love to be outdoors. I work part time, while my husband works from home full time. I make my work schedule and can build it around clients needs. I also work a few minutes away allowing me to be home on breaks if need be! I believe in following the rules the pet parents set! This helps decrease anxiety for the pet! I respect all the rules and expectations set by the pet parent as they are in charge at the end of the day!
