Dog Walking Inkster

““Walker was very courteous and professional. Tommy seemed comfortable with her right away, even though they had just met. She was patient, attentive, and very understanding of all the instructions I provided for Tommy’s care. I felt confident leaving him in her hands and would definitely recommend her.””

About: I have been caring for animals since elementary school. I watched cats and dogs for neighbors and friends of the family. As I got older, I started getting referrals for pets from around the community and cared for those animals too. The arch of my kindness and care is not limited to animals, as I also provide care for the elderly. I cared for both of my grandparents and my father until his passing. I currently provide care and other services to a 104 year-old young lady who is believed to be my community’s oldest living resident and yes, she still walks and does not use a wheelchair. I am self-employed and have a very flexible schedule. I can care for your pet any day of the week (unless I have another pet scheduled for that day) and at times convenient for most people. I am here to follow your instructions and schedule without deviation. Your fur baby will be feed exactly at the time(s) directed by you, same with any medication(s). For dogs, I will take them outside for walks and indoor/outdoor play as weather permits, and see that their water is always fresh with some treats and cuddles too. For cats, it is play and more play; plus fresh water and treats, then snuggling when we are done.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for about the last five years on and off. I love big dog breeds especially and have experience with German shepherds and husky’s specifIcally. I work from home 6 days a week and can give your baby attention throughout the day and evening. Saturdays I’m free to give your pup special attention. I have a husky puppy who loves to play and is full of energy to have a grand time with your dog. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“Izzy is fantastic. Izzy has walked our dog for close to a year. She’s completely reliable, makes sure our dog doesn’t eat anything suspicious while walking, and has even done some dog training. Our girl loves her so much, she will actually leave the house with Izzy even though I may be home - she doesn’t do this for anyone but Izzy.”

About: ​As someone who loves staying active and spending time outdoors, transitioning into dog walking was an easy choice. I know how important regular exercise and mental stimulation are for a dog’s health and happiness, and I’m here to make sure your pup gets exactly what they need while you’re busy or at work! I have full, open availability every day of the week to provide in home doggie daycare and boarding. Because I am home throughout the day, your pup receives continuous company, flexible potty breaks, and reliable care without being left alone for long stretches. Pet sitting is my primary daily focus, so your dog’s routine, meal times, and exercise schedule will always come first. My home is a calm, quiet, and secure space tailored for small to medium dogs up to 40 pounds. I have a huge soft spot for little pups... especially Chihuahuas!! I understand how sensitive they can be to loud environments or larger animals. I keep my space clean, pet proofed, and peaceful so guest dogs can settle in quickly. I provide close supervision at all times, follow your exact feeding and medication guidelines, and send frequent photo and video updates so you always have total peace of mind.

About: Truly love animals. I can provide excellent references that will confirm that your will be loved and your home will be safe while ai am there. I I will walk your dogs in my care and play with them outside. Animals sleep with me unless the owner would rather they were caged. If medicine is required I would be diligent to administer to your pet. During the day animals sit in my lap or lay on the couch beside me. Your pet will be very loved from the beginning! I'm retired and home the majority of the time. For trips to the bank or drive thru, dogs go with me and ride shotgun safely. We will follow your dogs daily routine and adhere to any rules and regulations about your pet and your home. Some dogs would rather not go on walks and I'm good with that.

About: Nine years of co-loving our GSD, Shelby. Years of assisting friends and family with their pups both young and old. I’m here and ready to help. Plenty of flexibility at this point in time. Just need notice so I can arrange my day accordingly. Would like to keep jobs in area. I prefer to care for pups at owner’s home, though I do have a fenced in yard and safe neighborhood should my home be needed.

About: I grew up with dogs of all breeds, from Doberman Pinschers to an American Pit Bull. Now I live with a beautiful cat named Tulipán. Available to care for your babies all weekend, I'm also have a flexible schedule so I can take care of them from Monday to Friday. I live in an apartment with a very well-behaved cat who is friendly with other cats and dogs. Unfortunately, due to lack of space, I can only accommodate cats or small dogs. We have plenty of green space and a park just 5 minutes away.

“Miggy loved his walks with Raymond. He had a great time and he took care to make sure he got his exercise. We will definitely be having Raymond walk Miggy again.”

About: I have experience handling and caring for several different species including; dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, small mammals and even spiders! I have 2.5 years of professional animal care experience, working at a humane society. I am fear free certified and am knowledgeable about dogs and cats with anxiety, fear, reactivity and general behavioral concerns. I will love your animal like my own, treating them with respect, love and kindness like every animal deserves. I am currently exploring the idea of pet sitting and personal animal care as a full time job. My schedule is extremely flexible, with most days being open all day. I have a fenced yard for my own dog, he gets lots of outside time (but supervised when necessary!) when the weather allows, he's allowed on any bed and I love it that way. I am open to sharing a bed with anyone's pets if that's what they need or crating if it's more comfortable for them too!

About: I don’t rush trust or force interaction. I give them space and let them warm up naturally. I pay close attention to the small details that matter to them, like keeping their routine consistent, their litter box clean, and their environment calm and familiar. I treat every visit like it’s about the cat’s comfort first, not just completing tasks, so they stay relaxed and secure while you’re away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time and attention to truly focus on the pets I care for. I enjoy being around animals and find it rewarding to help them feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m dependable, responsive, and always make sure each pet gets the care and consistency they’re used to. I focus on safety, trust, and a calm environment where pets feel at home. I have a large house and a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs space to play and relax securely. I work from home, so pets are never left alone for long and get steady attention throughout the day.

About: I have taken care of just about every type of dog and most cats. I used to work at “Hallidays Pet Resort” in canton MI for years so I have lots of hands on experience. Super exited to meet you and your dog so go ahead and send me a request :) I work overnights so I am available any day from morning-evening, as long as your animal is okay on its own overnight I can do sitting for multiple days in a row I absolutely adore animals. Super experienced in animal safety and caretaking, I can also give medications as long as it is orally administered. I have a pit bull of my own :)

About: I’ve been caring for and pet sitting dogs since I was 20, with experience caring for a variety of breeds, including Great Pyrenees, Australian Shepherds, and Brittanys/Pit mixes. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs I have a busy work schedule, but I’m great at planning ahead and making time for the pets I care for. I build pet care into my daily routine so they get the attention, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles they need. I’m dependable, organized, and flexible when it comes to sticking to your pet’s normal routine. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced-in home, providing a secure space for pets to enjoy some fresh air and playtime. My home is also equipped with an alarm system and security cameras, adding an extra layer of safety and peace of mind. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and want you to feel confident knowing they’re safe, happy, and in good hands while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a social work student with a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for dogs. I grew up with dogs and have a strong understanding of their behaviors—what they need, how they communicate, and what that means for the people who love them. I know how much pets are a part of the family, and how important it is to have someone you trust to care for them when you can’t be there. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, and attentive—not just to animals, but also to the routines, preferences, and peace of mind of their humans. Every pet is unique, and I’m always happy to adapt to their personality and needs with patience, compassion, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just good company, I’m here to support both you and your furry family member. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I’m a student with a flexible schedule, and spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy and find grounding. Whether it’s early morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening check-ins, I’m happy to build my day around making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow any routines or preferences you have—whether that’s specific feeding times, walk schedules, or little quirks your pet loves. With my own dogs, I’ve used positive reinforcement to teach commands and tricks, and I’m always gentle and encouraging. I bring that same approach to every animal I care for—lots of praise, patience, and treats (if allowed!). I also pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can respond to your pet’s needs in real time, whether they’re feeling playful, anxious, or just want some quiet company. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and loved—just like I’d want for my own.
