House Sitting in Leland

About: I grew up walking my neighbors dogs because my parents wouldn’t get me one. We finally got a dog 5 years ago and now have a second one, along with a third bonus dog. Two huskies and a German Shepard have taught me a lot over control of dogs. My love for animals has continued to grow. I started waking some pups from a shelter in my college town. Being back home, I have lots of free time and would love to help take care or your animal(s). At the movement I am babysitting here and there, nothing full time. I have a few weeks where I am completely free and some where I babysit 4-5 days a week. I’m extemlty flexible due to my job! I am more than happy to provide care in your home! I love going on walks, long or short. I’m also happy to play in the backyard, whatever your dog is used to. I’m happy to stay the night or do a few daily check ins!

“Sara was wonderful with our Watson. We came home to a better behaved pup than when we left. We had to go to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester. It was wonderful not to have to worry about our pup too since Sara takes such good care of him. Thank you Sara!”

About: Hey there! My name's Mace, and I've spent years caring for animals of all kinds (ask me about my frogs!) With a background in veterinary medicine, I'm committed to providing compassionate care to furry and scaly creatures alike. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, nail trims, or snuggles on the couch, I'm happy to help. I love befriending every animal I meet and giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. My schedule is currently very flexible, which means I can spend plenty of quality time with your pets throughout the day. Whether you need weekday, weekend, daytime, or overnight care, I'm happy to work with your schedule and provide the attention, companionship, and care your pets deserve while you're away. I always follow owner instructions closely, keep a watchful eye on your pet's well-being, and treat your home with the same respect I would my own. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets.

“I can’t say enough good things about Katherine’s stay with our Bode. She is amazing. Loved the daily updates and she is so sweet and very responsive and communicative. Bode loves her and misses her already.”

“Lee was a wonderful dog/car sitter! She kept us updated with pictures and texts. She bonded with our pets quickly and one could tell she loves dogs and cats! She even vacuumed before we returned home! We will definitely hire Lee again.”

“Patty just finished a few day stay with our 'gang off littles'! Just delightful. Many thanks to her from us and our three Shih Tzus. Everybody had a good time and for sure shared some laughs. THANK YOU, thank you! Look for you next time. Penny, Dave and Sheila, Mickey and Carl.”

About: I have had pets of my own for the past 38 years, since I was 12 years old. I also have a degree in biology and chemistry and have worked in animal hospitals and zoos. My husband, Scott, has had pets all his life. We treat our pets with the love and care that family members deserve, and we take our responsibility to them very seriously. Currently, we have a 2 year old black lab who absolutely loves all other animals, and a 14 year old cat who mostly sleeps in quiet, dark places. Our dog, Rosie, is always looking for new friends and is very submissive with them. She just wants to play and snuggle! Our children are grown and help with the care of them. Our house is full of pet lovers! We are very active and love to go for hikes, and we always keep dogs on their leash on the trails. We're happy to take your doggy to the dog park, as well, if you request it. You can have total peace of mind while your pup stays with us! I currently work part time and Scott, my husband, is a teacher and has summers off. I'm home a lot during the entire year, and we're both home on weekends. We have a fenced in backyard for running around and playing fetch. We have a large house and a fenced in yard where our dog, Rosie, loves to run around or playing fetch with us. We regularly go for walks in the neighborhood and hikes in the woods or on the beach. We love to take Rosie to the dog park, but will skip it if you're not comfortable with it. Scott is a teacher and has weekends and all summer free. Stephanie works part time, mostly from home and is at home most of the time during the week and is also available weekends. We have a large fenced yard and a wonderful Labrador retriever to keep your fur baby happy! We love giving dogs love and attention! We also love to take walks if that is something your dog enjoys.

“This is the second time Michelle has stayed with our two pups and we came home to two happy, well-cared for pets and a spotless home. It is very nice to have a dependable sitter and sets my mind at ease while away from home!”

“Marg was great with my two dogs while we were out of town for a weekend with family. She was communicative and sent me a few photos and updates throughout the weekend. I could tell the boys felt comfortable with her! Thanks again, Marg.”

Abbie R.

“Heather is amazing! She came for a meet and greet before her stay. She took in everything about the boys routine and wanted to make sure she was gonna give them an excellent visit. She left our home in a clean condition and during her stay she communicated extensively with photos and video’s showing that everyone was getting along well. We are so thankful to have met Heather and look forward to her future visits!”

“This was the first time for Kara petsitting our two dogs and cats. We were so happy that she was available and really appreciated her enthusiasm for our pets. She took them for a walk, played with them and fed them dinner before we got home. We felt they had been well cared for while we were away. Whenever I have texted with Kara she responds immediately. We look forward to hiring Kara again to take care of our furry friends!”

Michele M.

“We love having Jordan stay with our dog. She takes great care of him and sends us the cutest picture updates. She always takes great care of our home as well which is so nice to come home to.”

About: Since I can remember I’ve been around pets. At one point in time I had 6 dogs and 3 cats! I understand body language and an animals needs. I believe animals are the best things on the planet and they can do no wrong! I’m currently a full time student pursuing an aviation maintenance career! I’m at school 7am-3pm Mon-Fri. Although, I can leave school whenever to take of your pets! I have a fenced in yard with lots of space for pets to run around! My personal pets are dog and cat friendly. I have multiple crates and carriers if need be!

“Olivia was great! We had her housesit multiple times and she was very reliable and responsible - and loving to our dog. Highly recommend!”

About: I am currently in Traverse City, Michigan. I spend a lot of time between here and Phoenix. I can do last minute sits or drop ins. If you book ahead of time, I can usually work my schedule around where I am. I have lots of time to walk and love on your pets. Very reliable and able to care for your home as well. Last minute sittings or walks are welcome. I will love and treat your pets as if they are my own. I have mostly done pet and house sitting through Trusted Housesitters. I can get you my reviews from there if you would like further reviews about me. They are all 5 stars. I love taking care of all pets. I have watched big dogs, little dogs, rats and cats and hairless cats. My calendar can change by the minute. Once I commit to you, I will commit to my time with your pet when you book me. I am a flight attendant with lots of time on my hands. My schedule is flexible and I can do a last minute walk or plan ahead for a long sit. I will leave my schedule as booked and open it when I get back from my flight. I am great for last minute sits or if you know ahead of time, I can usually book far in advance and work my flight schedule around you. I mostly work out of the Phoenix area and Traverse City, Michigan. If coming to your home, I ask for a detailed list of your preferences. I will follow and respect you and your pets needs. I am physically fit and love would love to walk your pup or take them for a hike if they are able. I am a flight attendant so I have had an extensive background check. I get random checked for drugs and alcohol. I am very respectful of your rules and space and I am very kind and loving to animals.
