About: I have been pet and house sitting for many years. I love long walks with your waggy friend or drop in visits during the day for potty breaks. I will love on any pet you have! I work a full time job 12 hour days 3 days a week. I am willing to drop in early and late on days that I am working. I have all day on days off to spend time with your pets. At a client's home I make sure the pets have food and water, take them out to use the bathroom and love going on walks! I like to make sure the client home remains clean and free of any pet messes.
About: I work as an Esthetician, so I create my own schedule and making time whenever needed isn’t a problem. I have a large, fenced in back yard, my dog Maeve loves to swim down at our beach and my cat likes to sit on the window perch to watch the people run by. Both of my animals get along famously with each other and have all been brought in at different stages of life. I live on Traverse City’s Peninsula Drive with a beautiful view. It’s truly a tranquil place I would love to share with more love and cuddles for people’s pets. I decided to open my home to those who need to feel good in leaving their family members behind so they have time to travel without the worry! I also care for farm animals, and exotics. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies!
About: Hi, Good day! This is Jingle and I live in Alpena. I am a full time housewife and furmom. So my schedule is very flexible. I have 2 dogs a choco lab retriever almost 2 yrs old and a Australian Shepherd mix 6 yrs old. Currently, I regularly dog walk/sit one other dog atleast 4 times a week in town for almost 2 yrs now and another dog (her best friend) in several times in the last few months. Things I do with furfriends: - Take to the dog park / trails to run and play. - Take to the beach to play and swim - Train basic obedience for free, if necessary. - Take pictures and videos and send to the pet owners every single time. - Take your dogs to vet appointment And I would like to extend my service to those pet parents who need a helping hand to look after and have their furbabies give the best time of their lives. P.S. I don’t bring with me my own dogs when I dog sit/walk other dogs to make sure they are given more attention. I have a very flexible schedule and able to accept same day short notice. Whatever works best for both of us and to your dog/s. I have a fenced yard and when taking care of your pets at your home I am have to make sure they have food and fresh water, potty breaks and given more attention like giving excercise and training, and to be in crates if needed.
