Cat Sitting Goodells

“Excellent pet sitter. Highly recommended. Both cats were fed on time and daily pictures were sent. On top of that, both cats, the shy one and the friendly obe, were so calm when I came home. Obviously they felt secure and loved while I was gone. Kari-lynn also went out of her way to make sure floor was clean of this sand and ice, although that was not requesed or expected. Will definitely be requesting her again for future travel.”

“Very professional. Takes a minute for our dog to warm up to a new person and Amber understood this. The meet and greet went well as well as the drop in. We would request Amber’s services in the future if the need arose. Trustworthy and cares about your pet. Definitely 5 stars.”

“Carly is FABULOUS! She always leaves a detailed summary of her visits- which is huge with my senior dog and keeping track of bowel habits and tinkles. Carly walks with my girl in the yard and takes time for lots of pets. Carly pays attention to and adjusts for my dogs significant loss of hearing to avoid startling. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”

“Alexandra did an amazing job with drop in visits with our cat, Francine. She handled all elements of Francine's care as discussed, was very communicative and sent pictures from each visit. Francine warned right up to her and we couldn't ask for more. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

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 :)

“Shannon was awesome! Took the time for an initial meet & greet a few days before and communicated each day how it went with Dexter. We will certainly have her take care of Dexter again.”

About: Dog owner for 30 years. I have owned and trained therapy dogs for service in assisted living settings for my career (I owned/ operated assisted living communities in Port Huron, Ann Arbor and Seattle). I have lots of patience and reliability. I am very committed to all pets and have been a supporter of ASPCA for many years. I am newly retired and have a lot of flexibility. We have a blended family of both dogs and cats. So I would love to are for your cat or cats as well. I promise great communication and personalized service to meet and exceed your expectations. I am willing to take your pet to the vet or dog park or wherever you like. I look forward to meeting you and your pet.

About: I offer a boutique, low-volume dog care experience designed for dogs who thrive in a calmer, more personal environment. With 15+ years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels—including high-energy breeds like huskies. My setup is intentionally small (only a few dogs at a time) so each dog gets individual attention, structured play, and a stress-free environment—nothing like overcrowded daycare facilities. Dogs in my care enjoy: • Supervised indoor & outdoor time • Daily walks and structured play • A cozy, home-style environment • Optional fresh, homemade meals • Consistent routines to reduce anxiety I focus heavily on reading dog behavior and creating a balanced, safe group dynamic. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or needs a slower pace, I tailor care to them. This is ideal for owners looking for something more intentional, calm, and personalized for their dog—not a chaotic daycare setting. I offer flexible scheduling for daycare and boarding with a consistent daily routine to keep dogs comfortable. Because I keep my numbers low, each dog gets plenty of attention, structured playtime, and rest throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, with drop-off and pick-up times arranged to keep transitions calm and stress-free. Dogs in my care are kept in a safe, structured, low-volume environment designed to reduce stress and overstimulation. I carefully manage group dynamics and only accept a small number of dogs to ensure compatibility. Pets are always supervised during play, with designated rest areas for downtime. I can accommodate crate routines if needed and follow each dog’s normal schedule as closely as possible. Cleanliness, safety, and a calm atmosphere are always my top priorities.

About: *CURRENTLY ACCEPTING EXISTING CLIENTS ONLY* I’m a local dog groomer, part time. I am currently only working with existing clients due to my senior dog’s health. I have my own little hobby farm, where I have dogs, cats, birds, arctic foxes, horses, goats, pigs, and fish! My family takes care of them when I’m taking care of your babies. I’ve fostered multiple orphaned animals as young as 24 hours old. I’ve cared for wild animal orphans until they could get to a rehab. I’ve cared for snakes, lizards, chinchillas, hedgehogs, ferrets, etc. I’ve bottle fed, given injections, and even have given IV fluids to my pets at vet direction. So, animal experience is putting it lightly! I house sit for friends and family frequently, and am looking to expand my services. My oldest pup is a super senior sheltie who needs a little extra love to stay comfortable. I also have a Pyrenees mix with severe storm anxiety that requires medication, so I’m familiar with what that entails. All of my dogs get a kibble diet paired with different supplements based on their individual needs, so I have no problem feeding more complicated diets as instructed. My foxes are primarily raw, and I’ve taken classes on pet nutrition. I’m currently training my red lab pup to be a cardiac alert service prospect, and have gone through maple creek training for obedience and socialization work. I’m constantly studying new techniques and ways to work with animals to keep them healthy and well rounded! My schedule now requires dogs to be left alone for around 6-8 hours a day, as I have to be able to care for my struggling pup. I am able to still do overnights, and weekends! Simply cannot do 24/7 stays. I’m comfortable walking or supervising your dog in a fenced yard, to potty. I can give medications and supplements as directed, to help keep your pet comfortable. If it’s a breed that requires brushing and maintaining while you’re gone? I’m comfortable doing it to prevent matting. Having so many different breeds dogs and cats of my own, under my belt, and having worked with so many others? I’m pretty comfortable with all pets. I’m working on receiving pet CPR classes, as well!

About: I have a dog of my own who I care for, have grown up around dogs all my life, and have helped dog sit several dogs. I am currently in school during the week Monday-Thursday, however I only have class a few hours a day. I work 3-4 days a week, usually ranging from 4-6 hours at a time. Depending on when clients contact me, I can be flexible and work with clients needs. I have a cute Miniature Australian Shepherd of my own who loves to play, and I also have a fenced in yard that is large enough to play fetch and run around plenty.

“Emily did an incredible job with our dogs! She was reliable, caring, and always punctual, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy pups and couldn’t be more grateful. We will absolutely hire her again!”

About: Hello, my name is Bailey & I’m highly experienced with animals. I’ve been watching and taking care of animals for about 10 years now! I’d say watching any animals needed is my passion. I absolutely love animals! I am currently offering walking, boarding, Day Care & Drop in Visits & open to any other requests you may be needing as well! I have my own transportation and I’m a non smoker. I’m willing to love your pet as if it was mine! Let me get to know your fur babies today! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine whenever it is needed. I currently have a work from home job so I am available 24/7. I am currently offering Walking, Boarding, Daycare & Drop in Visits. I care for pets in my home by making sure the pets are comfortable in the environment and by allowing them to make themselves at home. I care for pets in clients homes the way that they are used to being cared for. I ensure the pets are comfortable in their own environments and that they are being cared for just as if their families were to be home with them.

About: I’ve had pets all my life and I have a love for all animals. I know many dogs through friends and family and I have experience walking and caring for a variety of breeds, ages and temperaments. I used to have two dogs of my own in addition to my three cats, one of which was a Shiba Inu - so I’m used to and can handle dogs that can be reactive or territorial. I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and I love to spoil and care for them. You can be sure I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I would give to my own. I currently have a business I’m starting up so I’m only working part time, as such my availability is varied but generally open. I prefer to sit at others’ homes but would be available to board throughout the week - I have a couple obligations Monday, Wednesday and Friday so just message me and we’ll see what we can work out. As I have three cats any boarding at my home would require the pet to be vetted and to verify they are cat friendly and non-aggressive. For in-home sitting I can provide a walk, feedings and general play and care including letting the dogs out to potty. At my own place I do not have a fully enclosed yard, but I can still take out dogs on-leash, and would provide all the same in-home care as I would sitting. I do have a gate for the kitchen if they needed to be kept separate from the cats. As I rent the dogs must be potty trained, though I understand pee accidents due to excitement and such can happen. In general I offer a safe and friendly environment for your pets regardless of whether I’m in your home or my own, as every animal deserves to be treated with love and care.

I’m available on weekends at any time, during the weekdays I’m available before 2:30 and after 11pm I’ll always be outside with a dog when it comes to using the restroom just to make sure nothing happens, if your dog isn’t good with other dogs I’ll ensure that we go to the park when there’s no other dogs, or if I’m walking and another dog is coming I’ll just go to the other side of the sidewalk.
