House Sitting in Glen Arbor

“We had an optimum experience with Steph. She gave wonderful care to our 3 pets, asked questions I hadn’t even thought of, and was very thorough in following instructions. She housesat for us for 4 days and left the house spotless. She sent updates and pics several times a day, so we felt so secure and pleased with the care she was giving to our pets. We would not hesitate to hire Steph again next time we need a sitter. She is a very sweet, thoughtful, and capable young lady and went above and beyond our expectations. We give her 10 stars!”

“Emily is a very courteous caretaker of pets and the house as well. She is great at reviewing the instructions and asking great questions to make sure she knows what to do during the sit. Her communication is awesome, and she sends great pictures of our kitties while she was watching them! For what it’s worth we have a very shy kitty and after several sits, the kitty has warmed up to Emily which is awesome. if you need someone to overnight and watch your critters and your house, she is definitely someone to consider!”

“Heather is absolutely wonderful!! She is very caring. Izzy and Remi absolutely loved her. She has excellent communication skills, is very punctual and I swear my house was cleaner than I left it. I will definitely ask her to watch Izzy and Remi anytime I need to go away! She is very trustworthy. I highly recommend Heather to watch over your 4 legged family members. I loved the pictures, updates and videos as this was my first time leaving them.”

“Sara was great with our two little dogs! They were calm and happy when we returned from a 4 day trip. Sara was very good at keeping in touch so that we could enjoy our trip and not worry about the dogs. The house was in great shape when we got home. Sara is a terrific dog/house-sitter!”

About: Hey there! My name's Mace, and I've spent years caring for animals of all kinds (ask me about my frogs!) With a background in veterinary medicine, I'm committed to providing compassionate care to furry and scaly creatures alike. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, nail trims, or snuggles on the couch, I'm happy to help. I love befriending every animal I meet and giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. My schedule is currently very flexible, which means I can spend plenty of quality time with your pets throughout the day. Whether you need weekday, weekend, daytime, or overnight care, I'm happy to work with your schedule and provide the attention, companionship, and care your pets deserve while you're away. I always follow owner instructions closely, keep a watchful eye on your pet's well-being, and treat your home with the same respect I would my own. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets.

About: Since I can remember I’ve been around pets. At one point in time I had 6 dogs and 3 cats! I understand body language and an animals needs. I believe animals are the best things on the planet and they can do no wrong! I’m currently a full time student pursuing an aviation maintenance career! I’m at school 7am-3pm Mon-Fri. Although, I can leave school whenever to take of your pets! I have a fenced in yard with lots of space for pets to run around! My personal pets are dog and cat friendly. I have multiple crates and carriers if need be!

“Katherine was great! She did a wonderful job watching over our house and our dog Brandy. She walked her everyday, dealt with a failing air conditioner in the heat, and sent numerous pictures. She was responsible, friendly and reliable. Thank you Katherine!”

“Kara was so lovely to work with. She was flexible, timely, and easy to communicate with. She sent me pictures of my dog and gave me great updates. I will definitely be working with Kara again.”

“I could not have asked for a better sitter with Regan. She was so attentive to my baby and took him on all the adventures. I would say I can’t wait to book her again, but I already have two additional stays booked with her…..Otis and I could not be more excited. She sent photos galore that made me so happy. Otis was a tired pup when I arrived home so I knew he had the absolute best time.”

About: I have had pets of my own for the past 38 years, since I was 12 years old. I also have a degree in biology and chemistry and have worked in animal hospitals and zoos. My husband, Scott, has had pets all his life. We treat our pets with the love and care that family members deserve, and we take our responsibility to them very seriously. Currently, we have a 2 year old black lab who absolutely loves all other animals, and a 14 year old cat who mostly sleeps in quiet, dark places. Our dog, Rosie, is always looking for new friends and is very submissive with them. She just wants to play and snuggle! Our children are grown and help with the care of them. Our house is full of pet lovers! We are very active and love to go for hikes, and we always keep dogs on their leash on the trails. We're happy to take your doggy to the dog park, as well, if you request it. You can have total peace of mind while your pup stays with us! I currently work part time and Scott, my husband, is a teacher and has summers off. I'm home a lot during the entire year, and we're both home on weekends. We have a fenced in backyard for running around and playing fetch. We have a large house and a fenced in yard where our dog, Rosie, loves to run around or playing fetch with us. We regularly go for walks in the neighborhood and hikes in the woods or on the beach. We love to take Rosie to the dog park, but will skip it if you're not comfortable with it. Scott is a teacher and has weekends and all summer free. Stephanie works part time, mostly from home and is at home most of the time during the week and is also available weekends. We have a large fenced yard and a wonderful Labrador retriever to keep your fur baby happy! We love giving dogs love and attention! We also love to take walks if that is something your dog enjoys.

“This is the second time Michelle has stayed with our two pups and we came home to two happy, well-cared for pets and a spotless home. It is very nice to have a dependable sitter and sets my mind at ease while away from home!”

Anne D.

“Maria was so sensitive and wonderful and aware of our animals needs! She took great care in making sure our English bulldog had everything he needed, all his medications and extra love and affection! She also took amazing care of our cat- she is truly the most perfectly well-rounded house and pet sitter, and had great communications with questions and updates all through her stay! If your pet is like your child, she is a perfect fit. We can’t wait to book Maria again!”

About: I am currently in Traverse City, Michigan. I spend a lot of time between here and Phoenix. I can do last minute sits or drop ins. If you book ahead of time, I can usually work my schedule around where I am. I have lots of time to walk and love on your pets. Very reliable and able to care for your home as well. Last minute sittings or walks are welcome. I will love and treat your pets as if they are my own. I have mostly done pet and house sitting through Trusted Housesitters. I can get you my reviews from there if you would like further reviews about me. They are all 5 stars. I love taking care of all pets. I have watched big dogs, little dogs, rats and cats and hairless cats. My calendar can change by the minute. Once I commit to you, I will commit to my time with your pet when you book me. I am a flight attendant with lots of time on my hands. My schedule is flexible and I can do a last minute walk or plan ahead for a long sit. I will leave my schedule as booked and open it when I get back from my flight. I am great for last minute sits or if you know ahead of time, I can usually book far in advance and work my flight schedule around you. I mostly work out of the Phoenix area and Traverse City, Michigan. If coming to your home, I ask for a detailed list of your preferences. I will follow and respect you and your pets needs. I am physically fit and love would love to walk your pup or take them for a hike if they are able. I am a flight attendant so I have had an extensive background check. I get random checked for drugs and alcohol. I am very respectful of your rules and space and I am very kind and loving to animals.

“Marg was amazing! Monty loved her and they had a great time together while I was out of town. She was very responsive, sent lots of updates and pictures, and followed Monty’s routine and any house instructions/requests to a T. The house was in pristine condition when I got home. Highly recommend and will be booking with Marg again!”

About: Hello! I'm a student at NMU with tons of dog care experience! I've had three family dogs that I've taken care of, and I've walked, dog sat, and bathed many dogs for family/friends over the years. I volunteered at my local dog shelter for a summer where I walked, played with, and helped socialize the dogs, which was SUCH a rewarding experience. I am a huge animal lover, and I promise to treat your pets with love, energy, and care. Fun fact, I love dogs so much that I went on a dog podcast this summer! Go to episode 30 of "FOLLOW ME: I'M A D.O.G! PODCAST" if you want to hear me talk about my childhood dogs and why they're so important to me :) During the summer, I work from 7:15-1:15 five days a week. I am happy to check in on your dog once before work, and a few times after work! On my days off, I can spend even more time with your pup. Let me know what you’re looking for, and we’ll see if we can work something out! While I cannot host dogs in my own apartment, I promise to treat your living space (and your puppy) as if it were my own. Like I said, I grew up with dogs, have dog sat for family/friends, and have volunteered in an animal shelter, so I'm experienced in sensing what a dog needs, respecting their space, and giving them all the attention they need when they want it.

“Olivia was great! We had her housesit multiple times and she was very reliable and responsible - and loving to our dog. Highly recommend!”
