“Kitty was fantastic. Our original plans for dog sitting fell through at the last minute and Kitty accepted the job with less than 24 hours notice. She saved us! When she arrived at our home she walked into chaos and had, what I'm sure, felt like 1 million instructions thrown at her all at once. She just rolled with it all. She was wonderful with keeping us updated and sending pictures.”

“My dogs were taken care of just how I would myself also came home and everything was just where I left it! Also she was willing to make multiple meet and greets for my 2 dogs! 5/5 I would give more if I could!”

About: I have had a 4 legged companion nearly my entire life. Dogs and I tend to have a mutual understanding and respect for each other. I have worked with teacup sized to extra large dogs with complete comfort in my ability to communicate with dogs I work from home currently with my own attention seeking dog, he would love a friend and I may as well take care of more dogs since it's second nature to me. Depends on what the client wants. I play chase, tug, fetch, "what's that" with my dog. If the weather is nice I will leave the back door open so he can come in and go out as he pleases. Water is always down, treats and food are given by me. I don't have a kennel but if you want your dog to have one I welcome them in my home.
About: With 14 animals of my own and over 5 years of pet sitting experience, I truly understand every pet’s unique needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every animal like family. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or specialized care, your pet will feel right at home with me. What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on knowledge of animal behavior and genuine passion for giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I currently don’t work anywhere else which gives me plenty of time in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends to focus on pet care. Since animals are a huge part of my life already, caring for pets naturally fits into my daily routine. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend stays, or afternoon check-ins, I’m flexible and committed to making sure your pet feels loved and well-cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and routines. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or playtime—and keep things clean and calm. My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re still there, providing peace of mind for both of you.

Your fur baby’s safety and happiness is important to me. I’ve rescued several fur babies so safety for all is top priority closely followed by their happiness.
“Ava was amazing - took good care of our dogs, sent regular updates and photos. We appreciated her attention to points brought up in our conversation. Our house was also left clean and tidy. We would not hesitate to contact her again and recommend her to our friends.”

“Anna was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs and our home! She kept us in the loop with great communication, sent us adorable pictures, and took them on regular walks. Plus, she was so flexible when we had to cut our trip short. I can’t recommend Anna enough—she’s the best!”

“Cynthia was so wonderful! She was incredibly conscientious and thoughtful. And a super fast communicator. Our dog was happy and well taken care of when we got home and clearly loved his time with her!”
“Melissa was great! This was our second time using her and we will definitely use her again! Definitely recommend her to come into your home and dog sit. She is wonderful with our puppy and Sassy loves her!”

“Lindsay was incredible! She took excellent care of our two kitties and sent pictures every day during our vacation! The cats loved her! We will definitely book with her again! Thank you, Lindsay!”

“Byron did a great job with my dogs. Got regular updates and he was able to get my stubborn dog to take her meds easily. He did great with my quirky dog who takes a bit to warm up to people but she was comfortable with him and he did well with her. Will book again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, hermit crabs, guinea pigs, you name it I’ve taken care of it. I love animals so much and think that every animal on earth deserves love and care. I am free 24/7 so pet care is a main priority in my life. I myself have two guinea pigs, a dog, and an orange cat that I love very much. I am more comfortable taking care of clients pets in the clients home. I do not have a fenced in yard in my home and I have many pets.

About: I love caring for pets of all ages and breeds, from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs and cats. I’m skilled in giving medications, as I care for my own senior dog. I can maintain special diets, and provide physical activity, as well as mental stimulation to keep pets happy and healthy. What sets me apart is my ability to read each animal’s special needs, as I have many pets of my own. I have much patience and compassion when it comes to pets, whether it’s training a puppy, assisting a senior pet with mobility, or simply offering cuddles and attention. I treat each and every pet as my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. I’m flexible and reliable, so I can accommodate different routines, whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or special care needs. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make it a priority, not something I squeeze in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and playtime instructions closely, while giving plenty of attention and affection. I keep the home tidy, clean up after pets (including litter boxes and feeding areas), and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for.
About: Extensive experience with senior pets, puppies, and dogs with extra energy! Have raised an english setter, a jack russel terrier mix, and a brittany pitt mix. Loads of dog sitting experience for both big and small, and looking to make your dog my new best friend! I am a college student based out of Rochester Hills, so I have plenty of time before and after class to take care of your sweet fur babies (as long as they don’t eat my homework)! Weekends also work for me with advanced notice. I always have my personal cell number available upon request. I have experience with special collars, administering medication and IV, and feeding specialized food. I have both family vet techs and long term relationships with local vet techs, and have experience with any sort of situation your pet may come across.
“Monica was amazing with our senior beagle who struggles with separation anxiety for drop in sitting. She kept him happy and comfortable while we were away. Will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”


About: I’ve loved and lived with animals all my life. I grew up playing with the furry patients in my parents’ animal clinic, and have since gained years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all kinds. I’m comfortable with big and small dog breeds, and am more than happy to look after pets that need some extra love, like special feeding rituals, frequent potty times, or having medications administered on a schedule. I’m also one heck of a house sitter, and will keep things in good order while you’re away for a weekend (like bringing in mail, feeding fish, watering plants, etc.)! I’m a weekend warrior with the ability to house sit and perform check-ins from 8pm on Fridays to 7pm on Sundays. I am not currently able to look after pets on weekdays. While I don’t have the space to board any four-legged guests, I can go above and beyond caring for your pet in the comfort of their own home. Just show me their daily routine, and I’ll keep them on track while you’re away!
“Mataya was wonderful! This was my first time leaving my doggy behind and she made it a very smooth process. She communicated and let me know everything was going well. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
