Dog Sitting in Harper Woods

About: I’ve worked and volunteered in animal shelters walking dogs and socializing both dogs and cats! I know dog and cat behavior like the back of my hand! I worked with Chicago Pet Club walking dogs previously. This is what I love doing! My priority is your beloved furry friends! I am very flexible in availability, if you need me, I’ll be there! My cat zoey is the queen and my world! I treat every animal with the utmost respect and patience. Anticipating their needs and adapting to whatever is thrown at me!

About: I have been taking care of dogs ever sense i can remember. I often volunteer at local animal shelters,I grew up around dogs, pet sat for family and friends, and even have my loving pitbull, Queen, which i adore. I trained Queen to do over 10 tricks, potty trained her, and did extensive research on how to give her the care that she needs!! Additionally,few years back, I took care of my senior dog, Cocoa. I gave her medication, wrapped her wounds, and made sure she lived a more comfortable and easy life when she fell ill. Overall, all animals deserve a change at a happy and healthy life and I LOVE being apart of it! Currently, I am out of college for the summer so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of your fur babies! I’m available every weekday expect Wednesday and Thursdays. In my home, I have a large fenced in yard for my puppy to run around in, and I constantly keep an eye on her to make sure she is safe! In clients homes, will keep a close eye on your pup at all times to ensure that they are safe and sound!

“Danielle was super helpful for walking our dog mid afternoon!! She was understanding of our needs and had a great personality! Will definitely be using her again! Thanks Danielle!”

“This was our first time using Rover. We booked Steven & Linda pretty much last minute since my older cat was diagnosed with diabetes just a week prior to our vacation. He needed to be fed diabetic food and given insulin shots 2x per day so we were in a crunch to figure out how to have this handled before we leave town. Steven & Linda made us feel really comfortable leaving our cat in their care and we knew he was being taken care of per the doctor’s instructions. They gave detailed updates and sent photos of our fur child after each visit. Would 100% recommend them for your pet’s care!”

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 have the patience to work with most breeds but the larger ones are my favorite. I’ve had or lived with pets my entire life and will care for yours like it’s my own. Walks, feedings, even baths if they’re up for it! I’m no dog specialist, just someone who genuinely enjoys they’re company. If your dog needs any accommodations (extra loving!) I’ll do my best to meet your expectation. I understand trusting a stranger with your pet can be unnerving but I promise to provide the best service I can. Your dog won’t even know you’re gone! But hey no pressure, choose what’s best for you and your pet. Whether that’s me or someone else, if you’re happy I’m happy. But hopefully you choose me! I’m moving back to Michigan this summer and will not start my full-time position until August. So I have a pretty flexible schedule until then and I would love to fill my time loving on some fluffy babies! I will care for your pet in your home and do all that you have instructed. I know it could be a little stressful to leave your dog and they may worry, but I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and at ease.

“Lauri is the best! She is prompt and very good with our German Shepherd dog. Lauri kept me informed and sent pics.”

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.

“First time using Abbey. This was a last minute booking due to work schedule changing abruptly. She worked with my schedule to do a previsit, very professional, understands large/gaint breed dogs behavior! Both of my dogs had no issues with her and immediately liked her. No issues during the visit or after. The dogs got a mid day potty break despite it pouring rain, which she cleaned up after the dogs cause 100 pound wet mastiffs usually leave a mess. Great experience with her. Will definitely use her again and would recommend her”

About: Hello, Pet Parents! I love dogs and have had the good fortune of co-existing with them for 30 years. I’ve cared for Shih tzus, a Golden, a Lab, and a Boxer. Dogs are very special. They have my heart :) I have a flexible schedule at the moment. I’m also fine with any type of drive. I should be able to accommodate your scheduling needs. I will take my cues from your instructions and the dogs’ general routine. I like playing ball, I love brushing them, harnesses are preferred for walks, and I am comfortable using clickers, etc.

About: About me—I absolutely love all dogs. There’s nothing like coming home to kisses and a wagging tail! I have had Dalmatians for the past 20 years. I lost my Miss Dottie about a month ago. She was 14. I’m not ready for another forever furbaby, but I miss couch cuddling and walks around the neighborhood. I promise your furbaby will be spoiled! I am looking primarily for long weekends, Friday-Monday. I can maximize time at home with this schedule. I am open to extended stays (military, longer vacations, etc). Last minute requests are ok—life happens! I am comfortable with crating during the day or leaving your furbaby open to roam the family room and kitchen. Back yard play and a walk everyday. Kisses, cuddles, and of course a treat or two. I only accept dogs in my home that have been spayed/neutered. Please contact me before booking. I would like to talk/meet before confirming. Daily rate is for a 24-hour period. Additional fee for time outside of the 24-the period. Drop-off/pick-up available with additional fee.

“Khelsi cat sat for me for 21 days over the winter break. My cat is shy but she warmed up to Khelsi within a few days and began playing with her. Khelsi was very communicative with me throughout my time away and sent me lots of pictures and updates despite the fact that I was in a very different time zone and could not always respond to her right away. She also periodically cleaned up around my apartment and left a sweet gift for my cat and me when she left. This was my first long trip away from my cat and stopped being anxious about her because I knew she would be safe and cared for with Khelsi watching her. Thank you for everything, Khelsi!”

“We're always reluctant leaving out fur babies with someone new, but Megan immediately put our minds at ease. Our dogs loved her immediately and it was instantly recognizable that she is a very caring person. We would recommend Megan to anybody looking for someone they can trust with their pets.”

About: I have 20+ years experience of dog sitting. From bringing dogs to my home and going to other people’s homes. I am a passionate animal lover and will care for your dog like it’s my own. I work from home and have a large fenced in yard. Perfect environment for any pupper! I work remotely from home. So I can give your pet the attention love and dedication that it deserves. I have a senior dog who gets along great with other pups. We get up in the morning and start our day with a potty and food break. Then while I work, Louie hangs out with me. Taking as many potty and play breaks as he needs. I have a very large safe, fenced in backyard and another pup to keep your baby company. Again, I work from home so I am able to provide the dedication and attention that your pup might need. I have a young cat, but she’s grown up with dogs and does great with them. My daughter is also an animal lover, like myself and would be thrilled to have another baby around for us to spoil and love!

“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ben was timely, communicative and respectful. My 2 dogs can be a little raucous with short visits and he seemed to handle it with ease. Great price too! I will use him any and every time I can. A+”

“Jenny is fantastic! I was gone for 2 weeks, and I felt like the cats were in great hands. Communication is easy and excellent with her, and she spends the full 30min with them which I really appreciated since I had been away for so long. There was one time one of my cats was hiding out, and she stayed longer to make sure they were ok. Highly recommend!”

About: I love animals and I make sure the job is done right but, also with love and care. I’ve always had different pets growing up such as cats, dogs, bunnies, hamsters,birds, and even chickens at one point of time. I love dogs the most especially big dogs like pitbulls. Pitbulls are my favorite breed of dog. Every time I see a dog I run up to it and pet it. I find dogs super adorable no matter what. By me having dogs throughout my life I know how hard it is sometimes to spend time with your dog, things get in the way like school, work, and sometimes you just be exhausted. But I’m here to relieve pet owners while making their pets very happy.

About: I love animals and have been around them my whole life. I grew up with a dog and cat and have been taking care of my own cat for the past 11 years.

About: I've enjoyed taking care of and keeping pets for as long as I can remember. I have had good experience in talking care of and walking all kinds of dogs and cats for neighbors, friends, and family. In the past, my family had bred Golden Doodles, and I've been able to help with taking care of the puppies, training them, and keeping up with our 4 year old and 1 year old Doodles. I'm currently working as a Elementary/High School music teacher, however I am flexible after school ends most days, so I would be able to work around taking your pets on walks, taking them out for bathroom breaks, and/or having play time with them during the afternoon or evening. I am available from 4-10 on weekdays and will work weekends if needed. I cater to the needs of you and your pet in any way possible! I cannot offer my home for pet sitting as I live in an apartment that does not allow pets, however I am completely willing to take care of your pet at your own home while entirely respecting you, your privacy, your pet, and your home.

About: Several people have trusted me enough to stay overnight at their homes for multiple days, caring for their dog children while they were away. I’ve cared for a range of dogs including those who need little attention and dogs who have an hourly schedule. I’ve done drop-ins to walk the dogs as well. I am able to follow clear instructions for dogs who need medical treatment (medicine) while in my care. All of my dog duties stemmed from happy owners recommending me to others. I work early mornings Monday through Friday. I get off around 9am. That means I can check in on your pup while you’re at work. I can also dog sit on select weekends. I live in a dog friendly apartment. It has a good amount of open space, but it’s also secure. When at your house I’d follow your rules accordingly.
