“Anthony was fantastic with our two shepherds, Goose and Stephen. He was excellent right off the bat in the meet and greet, and kept us updated with texts and pictures throughout the night. He clearly has a deep understanding of dogs and dog training. We'll definitely be using Anthony again and can't recommend him enough!”

About: I've been boarding dogs in my home, for clients, for over 16 years. I'm quite fond of my temporary, furry family members. I enjoy taking the dogs on walks around my great neighborhood and on trails around town. I am happy to offer a very loving and playful environment for your pet. I have two cats, one that thinks he's a dog and loves all of our guests and one that just hides out of site. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! IMPORTANT: We do ask that if your dog has issues going to the bathroom in the house, that you be very honest about this and bring a crate for your pet, for moments we aren't home and for evenings. I'm very open and have a extremely flexible schedule. I look forward to meeting you dogs and taking the best care of them while you're away. I always make sure we do a thorough meet and greet, going over all the information. The more info, the better. I look forward to talking care of your dogs!

“Mallory was exactly what our pup Leia needed! Caring, kind, knowledgeable and friendly. We were out for a few hours and Mallory was very commucative and shared alot of pics of a happy and relaxed puppy. We definitely look forward to having Mallory back! Definitely recommend her for your pet care needs.”

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. My dad used to help help run a rescue for several years, and we had many dogs of varying breeds and ages in our home. I currently have one dog named Alvin who was born in 2022. He is a yellow lab with a lot of energy! I am venturing into the working world, and this is my only role. My availability is wide open and I'm willing to help when needed! I have a small fenced in area under our deck where my dog relieves himself. I go for walks and there is a dog park very close to the house. My dog has extreme crate anxiety, so he isn't created. I am comfortable helping to ensure your pet is created as necessary.

“Taylor was wonderful with Hazel! I came home to a happy dog. She was flexible and went with the flow. Will definitely book her again! Thanks Taylor 🩷🐾”

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life and have house sat for pets of all types in my neighborhood, I love taking pets on walks and visiting dog parks. I am currently a college student that is free during the summer besides having online classes. I go to the gym in the morning but otherwise am quite free, just tending to my apartment. I have had multiple cats and dogs in the past and have volunteered at animal shelters so have a ton of knowledge on proper care for animals. I am also great at following instructions.

About: I’ve been involved in pet care the entirety of my adulthood. From big sled dogs to frenchies and more, I’ve played along with more than I can say. Experienced specifically with large breed dogs and small to medium reactive dogs. I work almost full time at a local doggy daycare. If your pet is a client there I’m happy to be flexible about drop off and pick up from there. I have varying flexibility throughout the week. Friday is the day I’m least available. I offer primarily drop in visits and walks. Well mannered dogs may walk with myself and my friendly, female dog. Others may get a little more one on one time if uncomfortable with other dogs.

About: I have experience with just about every type of pet regardless of age. I have experience with kittens and puppies as well as rescues with high care needs as well as their medication schedules. I began pet sitting when I was very young and have always loved it. I have special experience with caring for dogs with trauma and special situations. It is my privilege to meet those needs. I am available every weekday before 8:45 and every weeknight after 5pm. On weekends I have full day availability on Saturday and Sunday. Currently I am a happy lover of my two dogs and cats at home and my cat Tonka Truck. I usually begin my day with feeding and letting them out and repeat that after shifts. Apart from the usual litter box changes and feeding, it’s necessary to give my older dog medication in the middle of the day. These routines fit well in my life. I care for pets with a high degree of input from clients. While I do have a lot of experience with pet care, it is ultimately your baby and you know your pet best. Any suggestions, rules, and schedules are my privilege to abide by. I cannot care for pets in my own home due to the trauma needs of my own pets, but I am very conscious of house preferences and pet needs in clients’ homes. I am flexible with play schedules and meal times and have become efficient at administering medication from experience with my own dogs. I am also able to meet any sanitation and safety preferences during this time.

“Cera was great and took great care of our dog. She was on time and sent pictures while watching our dog. We will definitely be reaching back out to her for any dog sitting or house sitting needs.”

About: I have had dogs in my life for 57 years. I have had 2 miniature poodles and 2 standard poodles. I have trained them all. I currently do door dash part-time. I have plenty of time to take care of your loved pet. I have time to walk your dog, play with your dog and even train your dog if you’d like. I have a nice yard, and I live in a beautiful modular home park. We have a dog park here for your dog to play.

About: I have extensive pet sitting and house sitting experience. Not only are our pets our companions; they’re our family. It’s important for me to earn the trust of my client - YOU - because you’re allowing me to spend time with your beloved pet(s)! That’s a win win for the both of us! I genuinely adore animals of all kinds and I take my responsibility as their caretaker or nurturer very seriously. -DOGGO EXPERIENCE: Many different breeds, shapes, sizes. Some with special needs. I’ve worked with clients, both known and unknown, as well as family and friends who all are more than willing to provide more in-depth references on me, if you so desire. Experience with long term care of large pit bull that needed training assistance in Arizona. I also housesat and petsat for a family with a large Weimaraner who had special needs (nervous problems especially) in Kalamazoo, Michigan that I had to be extra sensitive and mindful to. (Each of these families both kept me on for multiple years, depending on my location at the time.) CATS (very experienced and skilled with cats - my knowledge of them is above and beyond, as I have 2 of my own myself, both rescues.) (2) Rabbits - one was my roommates; the other belongs to a very close friend and her Husband. I am experienced feeding them and I have knowledge of their temperaments and needs. Reptile experience: 2 Snakes (I am not comfortable feeding them mice, however, sorry about that, but I am experienced with humidifying their environments and checking up on them - fearlessly!) Any other questions? Please just ask me! :) My Mom passed away last summer and I decided to move back home to Michigan and take a year off to tend to my Father, being that I’m an only child and he’s my only family left. I am grateful to be back home in Michigan, and I’d like to utilize my free time wisely - pet sitting / house sitting / spending time with animals brings me peace and joy! My career consisted of a tremendous amount of safety and security tasks. I am a reputable individual with drive and passion and I love connecting with people. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies!!! I am available in the greater West Michigan area. If you are not in Kalamazooo, I am more than willing to travel to you for a small fee, depending how far it takes for me to drive to you. I want you to be at comfort and ease while you’re away, so I always ask for a little note about your expectations of me, your pet(s) feeding schedule, walking schedule and typical routes, what is ok/not ok in regards to (being on the furniture, offering treats, jumping on people - I don’t mind being jumped on at all by a cute dog, but if that’s something you’re trying to train your dog NOT to do, please note that, for example, so I can contribute to your training rather than mess it up. My home is open to dogs (only one at a time) who are OK being around my cat, Oliver. He has been acclimated with dogs.. and I would typically keep them separated if you want me to watch them in my home. I have an apartment, and we have a nice dog park.. but do keep in mind; I might have to fluctuate your fees depending on what adjustments I may need to make to my home or lifestyle to accommodate your pet in my home temporarily! In your home, I am very respectable and trustworthy (with plenty of references so you feel comfortable). I don’t mind doing light cleaning while I am in your space, I always clean up after myself and your pet while you are away. Again, any expectations of me? Just inform me! :)

“Tim was fantastic! Not only were my 2 vivacious pups well taken care of and happy, he went above and beyond. We returned to a sparkling clean home and many home repairs were completed. You can rest assured your home and babies will be in good hands with Tim! We have no reservations when recommending Tim.”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pets—including dogs, cats, snakes, and more. I currently volunteer at my local animal shelter, where I work with pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies and kittens to sweet senior animals. I’ve also worked as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable handling medications, special diets, and pets with medical needs. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, drop-in playtime, or a cozy stay while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m patient, attentive, and truly passionate about making sure animals feel safe, happy, and loved. Let me know how I can help—I’d love to meet you and your pet! I’m comfortable adjusting to each pet’s individual routine and needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away and they’re in a new environment! When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and relax. I follow the pet parent’s instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs. Pets are never left unattended for long, and I provide plenty of love, attention, and enrichment throughout their stay. When I care for pets in their own home, I treat the space with the utmost respect. I follow your pet’s regular routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just spending quality time together, I give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I also provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Alex was phenomenal! He took great care of all the pets, communicated with us regularly and gave great updates every day! He left our home looking better than when we left, amazing attention to detail. Highly recommended!!”
