About: I have been taking care of different kind of pets like dogs and cats for years. I am a serious animal lover and love taking care of them. I am a college student so I will be juggling pet care around my classes and homework, but I know I will be able to do it. I am experienced with high active pets that might need a bit more work taking care of. I am also experienced with shyer pets that may not warm up to me quickly.

About: I've been working with and caring for animals many years of my life. From huskies to terriers, to kittens and strays, I treat them the way friends do for one another. I put their needs before mine. I keep them in my sight, in the case of danger, to ensure their safety and overall well-being. Therefore, they will be loved and treated like family. I have an open schedule besides Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:30am to 11am. Additionally, I am devoted to your pet's needs and strive to accommodate your schedule. I have been caring for stray cats in my backyard for the past three years, with many of them needing specialty care. Whether it's a dog like my past companion, a husky named Ruby, or my friendly terriers, I adjust to their needs. I provide them with what they need. Whether they require adjustments for social anxiety or have a hard time on the leash or specific food requirements, I am familiar with these aspects. I am always willing to do what is best for them.

“Second time booking with Taylor and I’m glad I did! She goes above and beyond. She took great care of my apartment and my cats. She takes lots of good pics :) My door lock happened to break, (no fault of hers!), and she stayed late and communicated everythinggg with me, offered to call maintenance, whatever was needed. Will definitely be booking with her again :) I know things will be handled while I’m away. Thanks Taylor! <3”

About: I have tons of experience raising dogs from puppy to seniors of all different sizes, energy levels and more. I've done basic dog training, trick training, sled dog training & more. I have raised litters of puppies and cared for special needs dogs. I'm a dog groomer, dog photographer, I have shown dogs in AKC/UKC shows and I've joined in with hound trainers treeing bears. I also work as a kennel assistant! I have multi dog household experience so no need to worry about the extra pooch being an issue! I work part time as a kennel assistant and for the most part make my own schedule and hours there. My only other commitments are my teenage children's sports. I do not have a fenced in yard. YET. We do have outdoor pens for safe off leash potty time. I also have tons of experience being safe without a fence at my home or clients homes. I used to raise Huskies so I'm used to escape artists as well. Lol. Safety is always #1 for the dog and other people no matter what. I'm also very respectful of others homes, beliefs and more. (Background fact I was a Certified nurse Aide in a Nursing home for 9 years.) I also am very good at reading dog body language and can work with difficult behaviors safely! I look forward to working with you and your pet!

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 years old. I have trained multiple family dogs. I absolutely love animals, am extremely caring and understand animal behavior well. Always reliable. I am currently part time so I have flexibility to care of your pets at various times! Available mornings, afternoons and evenings depending on work schedule. My two cats Pippin and Franklin (who are brothers) are great family cats. I take care of them intentionally and lovingly. They eat quality food, have multiple lounging and scratching places and get plenty of snuggles. I will treat your pets with the same love, care and intentionality that I give my own boys (cats).

“Eden was amazing. They had great communication with me throughout the whole time they were taking care of my baby. Eden always kept me informed, sent a lot of pictures, and I felt reassured that Roberto was being taken care of very well! My only concern is that Roberto likes Eden more than me 😂”

“Kendall did a very good job of taking care of my cats. I would definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve been in environmental veterinary science In my high school years and have learned and taken care of a variety of animals from chicken, to goats. Ever since I was little I wanted to be a veterinarian, I love animals and teaching them new tricks as well! I do currently have a full time job, but I’m looking to get out of that area and focus more on doing what I love which is pet sitting! If I get enough regular clientele I would love to pursue this full time! I do have a fenced in back yard, I have two crates a big and little one! My house is pet friendly, we love all fur babies! I have a little fur baby as well to keep company with yours! She is super sweet and loves to cuddle next to any and everyone!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was child. My family raised our family dog since she was a puppy and even potty trained her. I also have experience teaching dogs commands as well. My schedule has changed! I’m willing to board only on weekdays. Drop-ins and walks on any day of the week! Let me know if you have my questions! I have a fenced in yard for dogs to roam as they please. My home also has plenty of space to house them and to ensure that they can have whatever set up they need. I’m willing to aid in potty training as well.

About: I’ve grown up around all different kinds of animals and cannot imagine a life without them! I have had years of experience caring for all different types and breeds. I have been pet sitting for family and friends for years and am hoping to expand my services to a larger community! I am very trusted and promise to give your pets the care they deserve! I am currently in college at GVSU with class Monday through Thursday. I still live in the Muskegon area and am only on campus for a couple hours each day so I am available any or all of the time outside of that. I am open to both short or extend bookings. I’m here to make this experience as easy and stress free as possible! I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family even for a short while. Whatever your preferences are for crating/caring for your dog I will respect and do with the same love I would for my own! Your animals will be safe and comfortable with me. I have experience with administering medications for both cats and dogs.

“Rish is nothing but amazing. I was nervous because of my difficult dog. She took pictures and you could see the joy in their faces. Will rebook in the future!”

About: I live and am registered on this app in Twin Lake, MI so I will show up in that radius of search, but have places to stay near Spring Lake, MI, Zeeland, MI and Coloma, MI and can help out in those areas as well. If you know anyone in these areas who needs pet watching feel free to connect them with me. All prices listed can be negotiated by either me or clients upon confirming more details (distance to home, time of stay, ease of pet care, amount of pets, etc.) none of the listed prices are fixed but keep in mind they are an average charge. "Nightly" charge includes a "full day & full night" charge. If you wish for only a "full day" or only a "full night" of in-home stay at your home, the price will be $65. My home is not publicly available but the option isn't completely off-limits; we can discuss the possibility if it's absolutely preferred/necessary for you/your pet(s). I have access to 70+ acres of land in the family for safe dog running, including the option for guarded dog socialization at the house, if you allow. I know a bit of the surrounding areas and go on lots of outdoor adventures (river fishing, lake fishing at our Baldwin cabin, ice fishing (our Baldwin cabin & other locations), mushroom hunting, general hiking, outdoor workouts and jogging, etc...) and would love to have your pet experience these exciting trips with me, depending on your comfort. I volunteered at Howling Timbers Animal Sanctuary in Muskegon and had the opportunity to interact with many wolf-dogs, general farm animals, and other wild animals that were rescued. One of the wolf-dogs, named Bear, was particularly picky & known to have been violent with other workers but warmed up to me well on my second day working and I had no issues with him. I've always had a dog growing up, limited to one 40-60 pound at a time. I owned my own German Shepherd/Labrador mix for about a year but the dog stayed with my ex when splitting in 2016. I've been caring for my own pets at home (including cats & fish), as well as spending time with friend's & family's pets (including birds and a variety of your basic farm animals) since I can remember. 26 years of watching Cesar Millan and Crocodile Hunter with my family & living with & encountering several animals has instilled in me the skill to properly love and care for your pet. My boyfriend of 7 years (Tom Wall) grew up on a deer farm with multiple dogs constantly around as well, so if you are away or the vet is unreachable he has professional skills to assist, only if you allow. I also have close friends that are vet techs and can be reached for emergencies if necessary. As well, Tom had a blind senior Jack Russel who took oral medicine by syringe, and I've worked with similar needs on past dogs. I tend to be more strict when it comes to training dogs in certain areas (jumping up on people, obsessive/constant barking, leash tugging/distracted wandering, coming when called, biting, aggressive behavior while playing or eating, etc.) but have a very lenient heart for snugs on the couch, snackies, and socializing with other people/animals. This is all adjusted to however you allow as long as it's safe for all involved. If sitting for a puppy, I am willing and able to train for basic commands (sit, stay, lay down, gentle, etc.) all dependent on what you as the owner re comfortable with. The reality is, I do not currently have any pets because my boyfriend & I are not home often enough and understand fully that just our love and adoration alone isn't enough to provide a full, quality life for a pet. We need to be able to dedicate hours each day to outdoor time and genuine training and bonding, but right now we just don't have those resources for our own pets. Until the day we are both available enough to fully care for an animal, I will spend as much time with friend's pets, family's pets, neighbor's pets, or catch a request on here and meet a new pup. Every experience I get with someone else's pets helps train me for the future I am eagerly awaiting. I can guarantee I already love your pet and want you to know you are always leaving them with an honest, knowledgable and responsible sitter so they will be safe and content while you are out. Any mile over 15 from my staying place (in any city location) I ask to add $0.50/mile to cover the gas, travel time, and a little extra wear on my vehicle. That includes travel to/from your house *for each drop-in visit*, and each all-day visit will be a one-time to/from travel cost. (example: you live 20 miles away and need me to drop-in twice, this will be a drop-in charge + $10 for extra gas to & from, while an all-day visit will be all-day charge + $5 for gas charge.) If I will already be in the area for some reason (perhaps another client) I will not charge this extra gas fee. I am already an active person who travels often so being able to pass through an area while travelling & get in a quick walk with a dog or drive out & stay a few days with a pet is something so regular for me. Caring for a pet in a client's home will go as to detail as the owner requests as possible. I want to be sure to care for their pets the same way they would, or better, if possible, and leave their home looking as though I was never around. If I offer care in my home (currently unavailable) the pet would be a big part of my & my boyfriend's regular outdoor adventures (if owner allows) and may even meet & socialize with multiple other pets (if owner allows). I have flexible jobs and am able to provide ample attention to your pet that is required. I jog regularly and I will enjoy bringing your dog with me on the nearby trails. I do not have my house publicly open to sitting at my house. If you absolutely need your pet to be watched outside of your home, we can discuss the details when the time comes.

“Betsy was amazing! Our kitties loved her and she took such good care of them. She also took care of our many bird feeders and bird baths and she kept the house spotless. Thanks to her we can now think about future trips.”

“Taylor was great! She took good care of my cat Skippy. Received cute pictures daily. She even brought in packages that had been delivered to my house while I was gone. I definitely recommend and will be a repeat customer.”

About: i’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 10! I took care of my dog’s puppies when they were born and cared for her and her puppies until they all passed away! I have also cared for other families pets until they have passed. I love going for walks with the dogs, making sure they get plenty of outside time as well as exercise and play! I do work thirty hours a week with kids! However I always make sure to let dogs out before I leave for work and make sure to go straight back to the house to take dogs out and even take them for a walk. I currently cannot accept boarding at my home. However I have client’s who have me stay at their house for 3-20 days. I am open to staying as long as needed!

“Josh was very prompt in responding to messages. He did some drop in visits while we were on pur honeymoon. By his 3rd visit I got pictures of my kitten actually laying on him. If I ever need a pet sitter again I will not hesitate to book him again.”
