“Melissa did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of our 16 year old Maltese. Would highly recommend her and will likely use her again! She updated me regularly and send numerous pictures and took great care of our little pup!”


“Another wonderful experience! Despite the short notice and overlap over the Christmas holiday, Grace went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and requests (and Hank's!). As usual, she kept me posted of how he was doing, which was also particularly helpful this time so I could help her address some anxiety he was having. She also cared for our finches and toad once again. My pets and home could be in no better hands! Thanks so much for another stress-free trip Grace, so looking forward to the next time!”


“Kristina did an awesome job with Brody and Bella. Before our trip we had 3 meet and greets. Bella can be nervous around new people and krsitina took her time with her and eventually warmed up to her. Brody got all the snuggles belly rubs he wanted. She made us feel very comfortable with all the texts and pictures she sent. We will be using Kristina in the future.”


“Byron took good care of our dogs over the weekend. Our home was as we left it upon return. Byron showed up in a timely manner, and met our dogs 2x before staying the weekend with them. He made sure they were familiar with him, which was appreciated.”



About: I have been volunteering at Humane Society of Macomb and have fostered all sorts of pets from bottle-fed kittens to giant labs. I have 3 pets (4 if you count my beloved fish!) and have grown up around animals and am super comfortable with all types. I am very flexible and willing to make multiple trips to your home. I do have a part time job but I can definitely work around it. I unfortunately cannot bring a pet to my home but I am willing to visit your home. I am very flexible and able to come to the house at any time working around my part time job. I am willing to make multiple trips to look after your pets and am open to anything like dog walking, feeding the pets, playing with the pets, and cleaning up after them. I am very experienced with all types of pets and understand how to read pet body language. I will be willing to work out the perfect schedule for taking care of your pet and will make sure everything you need is done.

“Mary did an amazing job watching our 4 dogs for 8 days over the 4th of July! 3 of our dogs are very old with special needs and 1 is afraid of fireworks and she was happy to accommodate to our requests to make the sitting go smooth. The dogs were very well taken care of and the house was spotless when we got home. We will definitely be reaching out to her for future sitting needs!”


“Monica was very accommodating to our special requests and spent lots of time at our house with the pets. She sent lots of pics and messages to let’s know all was good. She took great care of our Saint Bernard, cat, and house. We will definitely be using her again for future trips!”


About: I have taken care of all ages, but my specialty is seniors. I am great with furry friends that love a strict schedule as well as those that go with the flow. I am great at hiding icky medicine in their favorite foods. I am also active and would love to go on walks or play fetch with the energetic babies. I truly enjoy pet care, and at this time I am available on the weekends and an odd Friday. I am able to pop in for check-ins and potty breaks or stay full time. I am great at following instructions for your pets care. I always clean up after watching fur babies and try to leave the place better than I found it. I bring my own food most often as well.


“Diana responded quickly to our request for a sitter for our dog, Ollie. She did the meet and greet and Ollie went right to her. She showed up on time and even stayed an hour later when we were late coming home. We would definitely trust Diana to stay with Ollie again.”


About: I have been relied on by my friends and relatives to take care of their dogs for 15 years. They have trusted me to watch their home and their dogs when they need someone. I have some experience administering oral medicine (pills) to dogs. Currently, I am available most times and days for pet care. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am possibly not available from about 11:30am-2:30pm because I walk my sister's puppy then, but it is only when she needs me. I will happily visit or stay at your home to care for your pet. I am great at following directions and will happily do whatever you need me to do to care for your pet how you want me to or how your pet is used to being cared for.

About: I’ve trained puppies and taken care of senior dogs. I have 3 dogs currently (1 collie, and westies). I also have cat-sat and taken care care of my 5 chickens. Currently, I’m taking college classes and am available days/times outside of class. Rover is my only other responsibility. Your pets will be my main priority when I’m hired. I have a fenced in yard at home and make sure I exercise my pets daily, including my chickens. My dogs are walked on a leash when outside of the fenced area.

Sophia B.
“I have known Sophia for over 18 years. In that time, I owned at first a Papillon named Louie. He was a great little aggressive pup, and one of his favorite people was Sophia! She was extremely patient and tolerant of my little guard dog. Now we have a very fearful Labradoodle named Finn and Sophia is the only person (outside my immediate family) who truly understands and tolerates Finn. She is aware of all his issues but she still loves him anyway. She loves and respects all kinds of animals, especially misunderstood dogs. I highly recommend Sophia to take care of anyone's dog! You will not be disappointed, I am certain!!”
