About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, with experience ranging from dogs, cats, and rabbits to ferrets, birds, hamsters, and all kinds of farm animals. I also grew up maintaining a 400-gallon fish tank that included a wide variety of fish and even small freshwater sharks, giving me a strong understanding of aquatic care. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have raised two very active 100+ lb German Shepherd/Lab mixes since they were puppies, so I am confident handling large, high-energy dogs. Despite my size, I am fully capable of managing and guiding strong animals safely and effectively. I am happy to assist with all aspects of pet care, including long walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I am also comfortable caring for pets of all ages and administering medications when needed (with prior instructions). Additionally, I have long-term experience(10+ years) caring for a Bengal cat with Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD), which has given me hands-on experience with specialized care and medication routines. I am currently a student at Central Michigan University and work part-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available for both daytime visits and overnight stays in your home. I strongly believe pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, and I strive to maintain their routine while providing consistent care and companionship. I am always happy to provide extra references or additional information to help you feel confident and comfortable. I also maintain a respectful, non-judgmental approach to every home and will always leave your space in the same condition as when I arrived. So never be afraid of how your space might look!

About: Ever since being a young little girl, I have cared for dogs and they have a special place in my heart. I grew up with a yellow lab and took great care of her. As an adult I am the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends. I have watched small family farm taking care of goats, horses, dogs, and outdoor cats too. I have more experience with mid to older dogs than puppies, but I have also helped take care of puppies too. I am currently searching for a full-time position; therefore, I have flexibility for during the day for potty breaks or walks, evening care, and overnight stay at your house. I am unfortunately renting currently and have a no pet policy so I cannot board at this time. Your pet is to be treated like my own. I follow the owners lead but I love playtime, indoor or outdoor, walks by leash and harness, and cuddles and loves. I only give treats if that is what the household wants. I wish to keep the routine as similar to what the animal is used to.

“Very responsive and thorough!”

About: I have experience with senior dog care including medication administration. I have also worked with puppies. From playtime to potty time, I am here to help! I am fairly busy but am willing to create a schedule that will work for us and your pet! My availability will often vary weekly. I live in an apartment at the moment so I am unable to bring your pet to my place. However, I have plenty experience in client homes. I do my best to respect your rules and wishes regarding both your space and your pet’s care.

“Mariah and Max did a fantastic job taking care of our dogs on Christmas night! We were updated each time they did a check in with texts and pictures and we came home to very happy puppers!”

About: I love being around pets! I have 2 dogs and 1 cat of my own. Both dogs are on the smaller side and my cat is 6 years of ageI have 2 young children in my home when they aren't at school. My daughter is 5 and my son is 3. I have had dogs since I was a kid and have loved having them around. I work on a rotating schedule so my days of service are different each week.

I am looking forward you meeting you pet and being able to help you out!

About: Pet sitting was my first job ! I always watched other people’s dogs before I had dogs of my own ! I have 3 rescue dogs in my home now , who have all been through training and are great with other animals ! I work from home full-time . I barely ever have to leave the home , and if I do I have several kennels and comfort items for your dog to enjoy while I may have to step out I have a big fenced in yard ! Plenty of space for your dog to run and play with my dogs . I also have 4 large crates if the dog ever needs crated to have space away from the other dogs or simply just needs to decompress. Depending on the dogs needs , I will adjust accordingly.

About: I've always had dogs around me my whole life. I grew up with a little chihuahua and he's still with me. Dogs really love me and I really do love them! I have three dogs total so I'm with dogs most of my days throughout the week. Sometimes I'll be away from home for a day or two, but not often. I care for my dogs by taking them outside, giving them their food and water daily, and treats always! We spend time playing with their toys or running in the yard!

About: I have owned dogs since I was 10, and have always had animals as a big part of my life. My camera roll is FILLED with my fur babies. I have trained puppies, cared for senior dogs, and helped with special accommodations. I am open to whatever requests, including walks, parks, transportation, bathing, etc I do work full time on weekdays, but times are flexible. Weekends are almost always open, providing I’m given enough advanced warning to plan for this I have cared for dogs of all ages and sizes. I personally have 3 dogs with LOTS of energy. I love taking them on walks and playing with them. I am fine with any ages or special needs to accommodate with specific instructions given. I used to own a hobby farm, and have been around animals my entire life
