About: I’ve raised border collies most of my life, I’m great with high energy personalities. We live on 10 acres of woodland backed up to state land so there’s plenty of room for fun! I have one eight year old female border now, Aurora. She loves fetch and gets along great with other pups and cats. I understand the quirks behind dogs and can manage their varying attitudes well. I’m great with farm animals and can help out there if needed too. I don’t always bring Aurora with me, but if you’re okay with the socialization she loves the company. I’m willing to work with your schedules and give your dogs the best day to day care I can. I’ve been there too, it’s nice to know your loved ones are taken care of while you’re away. I’d like to help you out anyway I can. I work from home and my schedule is light, I have plenty of time for your dog’s outdoor physical needs and affection. We typically have a 6am potty and a 10pm potty as our first and last for the day. Our dog was crate trained as a puppy but now enjoys just as much of the furniture as we do. Your pet is welcome however they’re most comfortable. We do have an invisible fence if your pup is accustomed to one but I never leave our dog or let her out of my sight.

“Michelle was excellent! She stopped by to get a rundown of my cat’s feeding routine before the dates I was out of town, and she was communicative throughout the days I was away. I felt very comfortable & trusted my kitty was in good hands.”

“Kara has watched our cat, Cleo twice now. She always shows up on time to feed her. Kara also leaves nice notes about how she’s doing and sends me pictures every visit. You can tell she takes her time to give her a little love each time she stops in. I would definitely have her watch Cleo again in a heartbeat.”

“Kali was wonderful! She came for a meet and greet beforehand, which gave us so much peace of mind. While we were at a wedding in northern Michigan, she stopped by our cottage to check in on the dogs and kept us updated with great communication and photos. We’re so grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her!”

About: Hi my name is Marguerite. I currently have a house right by Interlochen State park. The property has a backyard with lots of room to play fetch and roam. I'm willing to travel to your house as needed. I'm very flexible with my schedule. I have so much love for animals. I have dog sat for many different breeds and sizes. I'm very passionate about every animal that I take care of and I will treat them as if they are my own. I look forward to meeting you and your animals! Please message me with any questions or concerns. Thanks! -Marg I watch dogs part time when I’m not working on freighters , this allows me to dedicate all my attention to clients when I’m not working. I have a fenced in yard with lots of room for your dog to play and run around. I will also take your animal on long walks and care for him or her as my own.

“Scott and Stephanie were great to work with. They communicated well, showed up for the full appointment time we booked, and took great care of our cat when we were out of town. All the stars, would book again.”

About: Hi! I’m Kari, a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for caring for pets. Growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other animals, I’ve always felt a natural connection to them. I currently have three dogs of my own— a 9-year-old female American Pit Bull Terrier, a 5-year-old male American Pit Bull Terrier, and a 4-year-old male German Shepherd/Boxer mix. While I’m relatively new to professional pet sitting, I have years of experience caring for my own pets and have also helped friends and family with dog and/ or cat sitting, walking, and playtime. I’m a recent graduate of Central Michigan University and now teach 8th and 9th grade English at Manistee Area Public Schools. I’m committed to both my career and to providing the best care for pets. Through my experience with my own dogs, I’ve developed a strong understanding of how to manage different personalities and behavioral needs. For instance, my youngest dog developed anxiety and reactivity at around 1.5 years old, which has required daily medication and thoughtful management of his interactions with my other dogs. While it’s been challenging, it has helped me learn how to create a safe and structured environment for animals with unique needs. In addition to my dogs, I also have experience caring for a variety of animals, including four hens and a rooster, which has further expanded my knowledge of animal care. Though I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I am a quick learner and dedicated to building my skills and providing loving, reliable care for your pets. I understand that each animal is unique, and I’m eager to build lasting relationships with pets and owners alike. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, medication management, or just some quality attention, I’m here to provide the best care possible while you’re away. I work as a full-time English teacher, with my workday running from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Outside of these hours, I’m flexible and available to provide pet sitting, dog walking, and other services. I’m also happy to accommodate weekend requests. Located in Bear Lake, MI, I’m willing to travel within the surrounding areas to care for your pets. Whether you need early morning walks, evening visits, or weekend care, I can tailor my schedule to meet your needs. Please feel free to reach out to discuss specific times and arrangements! When caring for pets in my own home, I ensure they are treated like part of the family. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where they have plenty of space to roam and play. My dogs, like my clients’ pets, receive regular exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization. I’m mindful of their individual personalities and energy levels, which allows me to adjust care accordingly—whether it’s a calm day of cuddles or a more energetic session of playtime. For pets in their own homes, I focus on maintaining their usual routines to minimize stress. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, whether it's feeding schedules, medication needs, or exercise requirements. I believe consistency is key to helping pets feel comfortable when their owners are away. I make sure to provide companionship, keep the environment safe, and give them the attention they need. Whether it's daily walks, administering medication, or just offering plenty of affection, I treat each pet with the same care and dedication I give to my own animals. I’m committed to ensuring your pet feels happy, secure, and loved, whether they are in my home or yours.

About: I’ve been taking care of the dogs I have owned, and family and friends since I was around six years old. I love dogs and animals, and I enjoy meeting new ones and helping people in need. I’m currently working part-time, which means I’ll have plenty of time to take care of or walk some dogs. I’m happy to help out with animals! Feeding, letting them out to drink water, and other basic dog care tasks are essential. I love dogs and want my dog to be happy, so naturally, I’d want yours too!

“Noah was easy to talk to, quick to respond, and made me feel very confident in Sisko's care. He sent pictures every day, as we agreed to, and sent extras if asked. My apartment was left in great shape and Sisko seemed in good spirits. Would 100% recommend, and 100% consider hiring for another stay.”

“Tabitha is awesome! She is quick to respond and always sends me a text and photos of my pups! Highly recommend her!”

“Tiffany gave us so much peace of mind, dropping in on our two cats while we were away. She sent great photos, updates, and even took our garbage cans to the curb when we forgot! I would definitely recommend her to anyone, and hope to have her back when we travel again!”
