Erin was great! Thank you so much for the many pics of Cheeto and Frito! Seeing how happy they were gave me such peace of mind. I could tell they were very well taken care of. Thanks, Erin for your services! Cheeto and Frito have a new friend. I will definitely call Erin again!

Lauren was fantastic with my fur babies. I am sure the dogs were happy to have a new caring and loving friend. She came to meet the dogs before hand to make sure they were comfortable with her during the drop off visits. She send daily photo reports of them and always responded fast if I had any question. Thanks Lauren

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for many years, and I’ve also helped care for my aunt’s dogs, who she groomed professionally. My patient and gentle nature allows me to connect with dogs of all personalities — from energetic pups to shy or nervous ones. I’m attentive to routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or basic training reinforcement. I follow instructions closely and am happy to help with commands, leash manners, or gentle encouragement for anxious dogs. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and plenty of love, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is an important part of my daily life, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I plan walks, visits, and playtime around your pet’s routine, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and enrichment activities. I’m available most days after 3 PM, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can adjust for regular visits or last-minute needs whenever possible, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I provide loving, attentive care in your pet’s own home, following your routines and instructions closely. I offer walks, playtime, enrichment, and medication if needed, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Felisha was amazing. My cats generally hide from everyone and one of them was out and interacting with her each time she came. She took amazing photos and left great check-in notes. She also was not phased by my last minute request to administer medication due to finding out my cat required a few weeks of antibiotics only a few days before we left. Would recommend Felisha to everyone and will definitely hire her again!

About: I am experienced in taking care of dogs including those with high needs that require medications and puppies as young as 3 months. I have had wonderful experience with walking, boarding and overnight stays over weekends. I am very engaging when I care for dogs, always making sure they get plenty of play and exercise if they are physically able, and I enjoy incorporating some basic training as a part of that play. I am sensitive to different needs of each dog and I socially accommodate for each of their needs. I am a very patient and warm caretaker. I build my schedule around my responsibilities and planned pet care but I typically wake up around 7am and go to sleep around midnight. I am used to frequent outings for dogs because I raised mine from when he was very young and he needed to go out about every hour. I have learned to be very patient and read signs of discomfort and needs in order to keep all animals safe, happy, healthy, and comfortable. I have close access to a secluded dog park and beautiful green spaces in a very walkable neighborhood. If I am watching a dog in a new area, I always look for similar spaces where dogs can safely engage with their environment. Within the home, I like to combine toys and training to get the most out of my time there. I am very affectionate towards cats and will help them get their daily activity in. I know some cats are nervous and need their space, and I can always accommodate for their individual needs.

Samantha has been doing drop ins with my dog for a couple of weeks now. She's been great, my dog loves her and is so comfortable with her, which is a relief as a mum of an anxious dog. She followed all my instructions and requests to the T, and has been flexible and accommodating to my changing schedule which is a great plus.

Nicole is the pet sitter we have been searching for. She genuinely cares for our two cats and always gives them 100% attention during the drop-in visits. Our furbabies are very well taken care of and happy. They have fun with her and trust her as well. Nicole also takes such cute pictures and many of them, making the time away from our cats easier.

About: I can help you with your animal care needs, from as quick as short pop-ins to week-long house/dog sitting. I've been around all kinds of animals all of my life. I work in Bloomfield Hills so if you are in that area I can run over to your house on my lunch hour and let your dogs out. I live in Clarkston so I can stop off at your house on my way to or from work and let your dogs out/feed them etc.... I can go to your house after work and let your dogs out and I can even stay at your house for a short time or a long time or over a long weekend (I don't work Fridays). I routinely house-sit for someone who has one dog and MANY cats inside the house and outside, duties included feeding ferals as well as the local wildlife... racoons, deer, birds, turkeys etc. I house-sit for someone who has 6 dogs. I am open to all sizes and breeds and temperaments of dogs, ... I am familiar with all kinds of birds. I also have experience with many reptiles. If you have me stay over-night I can be company for your animals throughout the day. I spend quality time with them. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I own Staffordshire terriers but have owned almost every breed of dog throughout my life. (I would love to babysit a Greyhound just f.y.i.) I can stay at your house all day and all night if you require, for stays requiring several days in a row....contact me for the fee. Typically I charge $50 for over-night stays at your house, from evening until morning. If the stay requires me to be there further throughout the day, depending on how many visits or hours, the cost is adjusted accordingly. I have a jeep 4x4 so no need to worry about having driveways or pathways shoveled during the winter while you are gone. I charge $50 to sleep at your house (late evening til morning) If you need me throughout the day, depending on what is required.. there will be an up-charge. I work mon thru Thursday and I can stop at your house to, or from work ...after work... I can do drop-ins or I can stay for extended times. I am free all Friday Saturday and Sunday. I have a jeep 4x4 so no need to worry about any sudden snow storms while you are gone. if you need any special instructions followed, just write everything down. i can water your plants, get your mail... while I am there. I will let your dogs out often to go potty

Our experience with having Ashley watch our cats while we were on our honeymoon, was nothing short of perfect. She made sure to ask questions about our little guys, including their preferences, their favorite toys and ways to best interact with them, and what really made us feel like she was the right choice, was she made it a priority to do whatever she could to ensure we felt comfortable. She knew our little guy Ralphie, (a very sensitive and socially needy pandemic kitten) was a concern for us when we were gone, because he really needs lots of love and attention, and she sent daily updates along with photos of both boys, and videos of playtime. We felt so at ease knowing she was there with them, and focusing on doing whatever they needed, and it really gave us the opportunity to relax, knowing our little guys were happy at home. We cannot recommend her enough and we will 100% reach out to Ashley the next time we need to go out of town. She was an absolute delight and we are so grateful to have found her!
