“Absolutely amazing as always. We don’t trust anyone with our pups like we do Breanna. She took great care of them, including giving one of them meds and weaning him off slowly. She also left the house in great condition and went above and beyond by removing the sheets and emptying the dishwasher at the end of her stay! I could not recommend Breanna more. Our pups love her too”

“I cannot rave enough about Linda & Steve! They stayed at our home for a week and took care of our 3 dogs, including a puppy! Like many pets, our dogs are spoiled and require lots of attention and Steve & Linda graciously met their needs. Our oldest dog is a senior with medication and of course, our puppy requires supervision and they did not hesitate. It was a complete pleasure to have them in our home and I was confident & relaxed that our pets & home were the priority. They are just good people & will absolutely be our go to sitters from now on.”

“Lauri was amazing. She was wonderful with my dogs, including my senior who has health issues and takes medications. She gave me frequent, comprehensive updates, and sent plenty of much-appreciated photos of my fur babies (and even of my aquarium and flowers). She took excellent care of the household generally, followed all my instructions/requests, and was very professional and communicative. The dogs were lucky to have her. I'll call on her again in a heartbeat!”

“My boy is a high energy Vizsla & I’ve never left him with someone new so was a little nervous to leave him. Sarah exceeded my expectation! Had last minute meds she had to give him & last minute fence getting put up & she handled it all perfect. Pretty sure Boone likes her more than me now!”

About: Hey, I'm Kayleen! I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and caring for them has been a big part of my life. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and personalities-from playful puppies and energetic breeds to senior pets who need extra patience and love. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I make sure walks, feedings, and cuddle time all happen right when they’re used to it. Safety is always my top priority, but I also focus on keeping pets happy, active, and comfortable while you’re away. My schedule is pretty easy-I do have a full time job that's 8-5 Monday thru Friday, and then 9-3 on Saturdays. I am usually up by 6 am, and that's my usual time with my two dogs, Smokey and Bandit, with their breakfast, going outside to play in the backyard, or take them around the block. When I get home, that's usually my spending quality time with them with dinner, playing, walks, etc. My go to's with taking care of someone's pet in a guest's home is: Respect, Responsibility, and comfort. Sticking to the routines set by the owners, prioritizing safety and treating a guest's home like my home, and making sure communication is flowing between me and the owners, whether it be with pictures, reporting anything suspicious. and just with updates.
“I was in a last minute pinch for a weekend trip and Josh came through. Josh took great care of my two pets and made sure they were well taken care of and loved. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a sitter.”


“Always a perfect experience with Misty. My wife and I got home from a week vacation and the fur babies were as happy as can be just like we never even left. Misty is so good with our babies and always checks in with pics and updates.”
About: I've grown up my entire life surrounded by pets. I absolutely love animals, dogs and cats especially. I've spent the last year looking after the pets of fellow family and friends and worked my way up to watching for fellow residents in my city and cities nearby. I'm a full-time employee in a K-12 public school and a part-time student at Wayne State University. My college schedule is flexible, and I still have plenty of time during the day to help. Back home I would feed and water my pets every morning, take them for a walk if the weather was nice, and play games such as fetch. For my clients I will do have your pets fed at the desired time you prefer. I spend time playing with them, giving them the attention they deserve, and a walk.
About: I've been a dog owner most of my life and also have two grand dogs and a grand cat who I care for often. I'm experienced with any age, any sized dog and regularly walk two dogs at a time. When can we meet? I'm looking for a way to meet more dogs when away from my grand dogs and want to walk / and exercise more while providing a trustworthy option for your pet(s)! Inclement weather doesn't matter if your pet doesn't mind it. I'm already an experienced and trusted house sitter, plus dog and cat sitter (and can care for houseplants & yards too). I'll respect your privacy and care for your home & pets like I would my own. I'll provide updates and photos to put you at ease. I truly understand that your pets are your children.
About: I am a lover of all animals, especially dogs. I have had a dog throughout my entire life. My friends and family refer to me as a “dog whisperer”. I have always had a special connection with cats and dogs. I am everyone’s go-to dog sitter in my family and friend circle. My top priority is always making sure animals are cared for first. Caring for Dogs is truly my passion and I find it very rewarding. I am very detail oriented when it comes to caring for your dog. I understand that dogs have their daily routines and it is very important to maintain what they are accustomed to. I am great at keeping feeding and walking schedules as this helps ease their stress of you being gone.
“Adrianna was fantastic with Frenchie. She came for a meet-and-greet a couple of days before our trip. She asked great questions, and Frenchie warmed right up to her. She stayed in our home and was perfect; you wouldn't even know she was here. She sent pictures and updates every day and responded right away every time. We will have her again.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, with 7 years of experience caring for dogs. While I don’t have a dog of my own I have two bunnies I adore and, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after pets for friends and family, gaining experience with various breeds and temperaments. From puppies to senior dogs, I’m skilled in providing personalized care, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I am a recent college grad with a BFA in Fashion Design and Merchandising from Wayne State University. I am currently living in Grosse Pointe Michigan. I as I am a part time nanny, have a relatively flexible schedule, so depending on what your pet’s needs are I would love to accommodate and be of service to you and your pet.🫶 Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. I ensure pets are always supervised, and I tailor the care to meet each pet’s unique needs. I’m mindful of your pet’s routine and create a safe, cozy space for them to feel at ease. With my flexible schedule and experience, I’m able to offer attention and care that’s both nurturing and reliable, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have lots of experience with cats and dogs, big or small. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, rats, rabbits, reptiles, and fish! I have experience giving injections and oral meds and I’m super comfortable with doing so. Also, I have experience watching pets post-op, as well as puppies and dogs with anxiety. Please reach out if your pet is okay alone 10 hours at a time. I work 10 hours Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, but have Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday completely open to spend time with your furry family member! I can crate your dog, or let them roam and hang out with me if they are house trained! I am used to having a dog around the house and I hope to make a good companion for them while you’re away! Don’t worry, if they normally sleep in the bed with you, I love dog cuddles!
“Hannah was great! She sent a lot of photos of chip which I really appreciated. She was also very communicative throughout the weekend. I would use her again for sure :)”

About: I've been a dog lover my entire life. There has never been a time in my life I've lived without one. Caring for, playing with, and loving dogs is something I genuinely love. I have 2 dogs of my own. I am a mom of 3 kids. I work from home only part time. I am home home most days, if I leave it may be for only a few hours at a time. Dogs in my home would be treated just like my own. Playing with toys, fenced yard, walks, run if they like, allowed on all furniture if owners allow. I have one dog that sleeps with my son and one that is crated at night. If your dog is crated I will do that or if they prefer to sleep with someone or anywhere else that is allowed too.
About: I have spent over 200 hours at a local animal shelter. I primarily cared for dogs, puppies and kittens. I find it very fulfilling to earn a dog's trust, which was a common feat with the dogs I worked with. My wife and I's favorite activity was taking shelter dogs to different parks for walks to stretch their legs. I personally have three dogs, ranging from 50 to 120 pounds. I also have dog sat for dogs ranging from Miniature Schnauzers to Great Danes and Bernese Mountain dogs. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I am active-duty Coast Guard and work Monday to Friday from 6:30 to 2:30. I am free every evening of the week and all day on the weekends. I like to use positive reinforcement with treats and attention. I am comfortable using all sorts of leads from collars, prong collars, martingales, gentle leads and harnesses being my preferred choice. I'll work with you on what you want for your dog. I can also load dogs in vehicles and crate them.
“Brandi stayed with our two dogs for a week. She did a wonderful job. She kept us informed everyday and sent lots of videos and pics of our dogs. She was very flexible and supportive during a crazy time… our house was being renovated and we were in the middle of a move. Our return flights were delayed and Brandi worked with to assure our dogs were going to be cared for even if our flight was canceled. Brandi is a Star!”

“Dawn did a terrific job dog and house sitting for a week for us. We came home to a happy dog and a home just as we left it. Dawn will always be our first choice to take care of Stella and our abode.”

“Olivia stayed in our home with our senior dog while we were away for the holidays. She was so communicative and kept us updated with pictures, which was great. We loved coming home to a well cared for pup and house!”
