This was my second time booking with Khelsi. She was great with my cat just like the first time and was very accommodating of my ever-changing schedule. I truly appreciate Khelsi’s flexibility despite her having a packed schedule

Melanie was great. She let me know when she was stopping by, spent time with my animals and shared pictures. My cats don’t usually come right up to strangers and they clearly felt comfortable with Melanie.

About: Hi, I’m Megan — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet care provider based in beautiful East English Village. I live with my two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other calm, respectful pups. I provide a personalized, low-volume boarding experience from my home, where your dog becomes part of our little pack. My services are designed with your pet’s comfort and safety in mind. I only board one guest dog at a time, ensuring constant supervision, individual attention, and a peaceful, low-stress environment. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, a walk while you’re at work, or overnight care, I treat every animal like one of my own — with affection, patience, and professional care. I provide updates with every visit, and I’m happy to accommodate custom routines, feeding schedules, and medication administration when needed. Let’s schedule a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great match! Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life — I structure my routine around it. With two dogs of my own, I’m already up early for walks, feeding, and snuggles. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit my boarding and walking services to just a few clients at a time, I’m able to give each pet my full focus without being overbooked or rushed. Whether I’m doing a drop-in visit, hosting a pup overnight, or stopping by for a midday walk, I plan my calendar so your pet gets reliable, unrushed, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities — whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in yours. BOARDING AT MY HOME: When boarding in my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment by only accepting one guest dog at a time. This allows me to give each pet plenty of individual attention and supervision throughout the day. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to having guests and do best with other well-mannered pups. I take time to carefully introduce everyone, and I require a meet-and-greet prior to first-time bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. My home is pet-safe, clean, and set up with cozy resting areas, a large and securely fenced outdoor space, and plenty of enrichment opportunities like walks, playtime, and snuggles. I also follow the pet’s routine as closely as possible to make their stay feel familiar and reassuring. FOR DROP INS I aim to maintain your pet’s routine in their own environment, minimizing disruption and providing consistent care. I refresh water, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, and always leave your home secure and tidy. I also provide visit updates with photos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Building trust through consistent, compassionate care is what I do best. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them, they’ll be treated like family.

About: I believe in health for everyone in your familia, even the ones with tails. I can do everything from train and run your most rambunctious puppy to gently walking or playing with your senior doggo. For me, pets of all kinds are part of the household and I really believe in treating them as such. Pets deserve to be treated well and have fun under our roofs. By the way...One of my super powers is running after escaped dogs both in Detroit and the Pointes! I do this all because of a profound love for my first dog and dear runner friend, Tyson the Rottweiler, who always kept me company and taught me the value of loyalty, love, and the idea of caring for others.

About: I have had both cats and dogs in my life since I was born! I love animals and enjoy helping others care for their pets while they’re away. I have experience with administering medication and inhaler for cats with asthma, caring for pets with health issues, and pet-sitting for all types of personalities. I currently work full time so I can provide walks or visits during the week after 5pm. I prefer to house sit over the weekend to spend the most time with your pets. However, I am flexible to your needs as they arise! I always make sure to be patient with animals when providing care. I allow them to set boundaries and I follow their lead. I will whatever I can to make your pet feel as safe as possible while you are away!

Monica did an incredible job looking after our two cats! She went above and beyond by shoveling our walkway after a snow storm. Would 100% ask her to pet sit again!

About: I’ve been taking care of others dogs since I was about 14 or 15 since I wasn’t allowed to have a dog in my home. Unfortunately, I’m not in a place to take care of a dog full time, but I love taking care of them for others! Right now I am bouncing around different small jobs that don’t take up too much time of my day, and I like to stay busy:) I am very respectful on clients needs and rules. If there is ever something I consider doing outside of that, I will communicate it well.

Hannah took great care of our kitties and bearded dragon! She was on time, and made sure she laid eyes on everyone. She sent pics and was very good at communicating with me from first contact. Highly recommend and will certainly re-book. Thanks for the peace of mind while we were gone, Hannah!

About: I have taken care of my own dogs, neighbors dogs, and fostered dogs. I am widely available in the summer and after noons in the school year. Kind, mature, dog lover available to walk you dog or just stop in and give them some love? I have lots of availability in the summer and would love to relieve the stress that can come with leaving our doggies at home. I am happy to walk your dog, check in/let them out or just give them some attention. Lots of afternoon/evenings in the school year. I am not offering boarding at this time. I can stop by check in and walk your dog, following all of your directions. I know some of the stress of leaving our pups at home is finding someone we trust to care for them when we are not there. We just want to know they are all good!

About: I have had a dog of my own my entire life so I am very familiar with training, caring for, and playing with dogs of all ages. I am currently available during the weekdays in the morning or early afternoon to play with, walk, and take care of your dog as needed. While working, I am always very aware of my surroundings when caring for a dog, making sure all fences or gates are locked when they are outside, ensuring there is nothing harmful they could get into, and keeping a watchful eye on the dog.

About: I’m an ER nurse and paramedic looking to spend time playing, walking and caring for pets. Or house sitting. I typically am free 3-4 days a week as I work 3-12 hour shifts a week at the hospital. Naturally, I’m very compassionate and care very deeply about living beings. I also have had cats and dogs of my own. I’m 58, dependable, have my own car and am active. I work 3 days a week in the ER. Which leave 4 days a week to pet sit and walk dogs! I have a Honda Fit that I am not fussy about, a dog is welcome to take a ride to Belle Isle or to the dog park! Ideally I would sit in your home, but I’m sure if your dog or cat is friendly my family would love to have them overnight!
