“Eryn was fantastic! She met up with us beforehand for a meet and greet, provided updates about the cats, cleaned up one of their messes, and even brought in a few packages from the front porch while we were away.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life but really started taking care of them when I was about 5. Throughout my childhood I had 6 dogs, all of different breeds and sizes. I frequently dog sit for my boss when he goes home (from out of state) or on vacation. I also have experience with cats, turtles, ferrets, rabbits, and possums. I’m normally able to walk/stop in to visit after works hours during the week (5:30pm). I have a lot of availability on the weekends, when I’d be able to stay overnight or have dogs stay overnight. I do live in an apartment complex with lots of friendly neighbors and their dogs! There are great walking paths throughout my whole complex so there would be no issues going on long walks! I’m all for snuggling on the furniture, as I want your babies to feel as comfortable as possible!

“Rae is AMAZING. They provided the best care for our cats and even got them on a routine while we were away. They also provided the most detailed, fun updates. Rae went above and beyond, doing lightyears more than we could have even asked for. We will definitely be having them watch our cats in the future.”
About: Hey fur-baby parents! My name is Anel, and I am a a recent graduate from Michigan State University. During 2020, I worked part time at a doggy daycare and pet boarding facility called Brook-Falls. I worked with pups as small as 2 month old King Charles Spaniels, to 120lb Great Danes (aka: lap dogs). I am very enthusiastic about my love for animals’ wellbeing, and have completed over 16 hours of animal behavior videos and training, in order to learn what it takes to be a great animal caregiver. After leaving Brook-Falls, I started my own side business called Nel’s Bark Park Haul. When I’m at home for breaks in Wisconsin, I carpool dogs in my community to a dog park located near my home. Through my Bark Park Haul, I have grown clientele and expanded to drop-ins, dog walking, puppy training, and house sitting. While I am at school, away from my park group and other furry friends, I’d love to get to know some new furry folks of the Lansing area! I have experience working with all sized dogs and cats. I can’t wait to meet your babies! :) I am very flexible and eager to be where you need me to go for your pets. We can work together to suit your needs. 😊 You lay down the rules of your house, and I’ll make sure your four-legged family members are comfortable and safe! I’ll keep the floors clean, trash lids closed, and a smile on your pet’s face.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up my family has always had a dog. I currently have a 8-year-old Sheltie and 2 year old cat of my own whom I love very much. Friends and family have relied on me for pet care such as walks, baths, and weekend dog sitting for many years. I am a teacher with summers off. My schedule allows me lots of free time to care for your furry family members! During the school year I can provide care after 3pm. I would like clear instructions as to how to best serve you and your furry friend! I currently live in an apartment, but have a yard around my building. Being downtown gives me access to many different parks and natural spaces.
