“Megan did a great job (per usual) taking care of my senior dog and my home! She even went above and beyond and put out my trash/recycling bins when she noticed it was pickup day. Thanks, Megan!”

“Alexandra is excellent with my pups. She is super loving and treats them just like I do. She goes above and beyond to ensure your pups are well cared for and your home is safe. She is very respectful and caring to pets as well as people. She is an absolute joy to work with.”
“What more could you ask for! Mature and responsible. Loved on my pets like I do…and they loved her! She shared pictures throughout the week which was GREATLY appreciated! I worried about my dog’s separation anxiety, but didn’t need to. Amanda instantly was one of the pack. She cared for the house, kept it clean, and brought in the mail. Perfect 5 star sitter.”
“Alex took great care of our two dogs. She communicated well and sent pictures. The dogs were calm and happy when we returned home . Our home was left in perfect condition! We will definitely book with Alex again!!!”
“Jennifer and her family were such great puppy sitters and went above and beyond helpful. I had a few stressful days due to obligations with family matters while I was visiting in Detroit. My poor lil Lulu was caught in the middle not being able to play at all during the days. Jennifer responded to my 12am request nearly immediately and meet me in the morning with smiles and love for Lulu. Lil Lu came home 8 hours later clean, fed and very tired, ( and what a dream after my own exhausting day ). Thank You so much Jennifer, now if you move to California I could guarantee you lots of energetic play dates with Lulu.”
“Erin was great watching our corgi for the long weekend! Sent a lot of pictures which was super nice! I would love for her to watch our Chip Chip again!”

“Brit is our go to pet and house sitter! She is kind, attentive to our pup. She keeps our home picked up and is very comminicative during her time with our pup.”
“Laura was very nice to get up at 3:30 am to feed my Henry. Hopefully was able to go back to bed. He has always been an early riser but this is ridiculous. She was calm and reassuring in general.”
“She did such an incredible job with my dog ! She sent loads of updates and asked all the right questions. Booking her again FOR SURE”
“If I could give 6 stars, I would. This was the first time I’ve left our kiddos with someone I didn’t know firsthand and I had a better experience than I’ve had with friends or family! I can’t tell you how nice it was to come home to happy animals and a clean house. She checked in just as much as I asked and was clearly very attentive. I would absolutely recommend Sydney and definitely hope to be able to book her again!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was ten but I’ve been doing it professionally for about 6 years now. I moved to the Westland area just recently. I have a pretty free schedule as of now so I was looking into walking dogs or doing drop ins to fill the time, I love animals so this was something that I was interested in to begin with. I just want to make sure the pet is well taken care of, food, water, walk/activity and keep in contact with the owner during the walks or sitting to make sure they know how their pet is doing. I text them and send pictures of the pet during the time i am caring for them
“Cheryl was very accommodating and was able to help us out in a last-minute jam she took care of the dogs like her own and was very nice and sent pictures and updates frequently we'll definitely use her again”
“Denielle is such a sweet and kind person who loves animals. My cat fell in love with her instantly. She followed all instructions and was courteous. Kept me updated with pictures and videos. I came back to a happy kitty and a clean home. Definitely rebooking!”
About: I have always had pets in my house. I love being able to help people with taking care of their furry friends. For as long as I can remember I have been helping my family with their pets and I love to be able to help keep their animals happy, healthy, safe, and comfortable. I am currently not working or in school over the summer. In late August I will be back in class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am available to help with pets any day of the week until I begin classes again. I would love to be able to help with taking care of pets while others may not be able to. When I have previously helped with family and friends pets I have always made sure to have some kind of instructional set up of what they would like to be done if I am watching the animal in their house to make sure that I am covering what the owner would typically do. I try to make sure to keep up with the routine that has been set up for the animal already and make sure that they feel comfortable with me as well as making sure they are feeling safe and cared for.
About: If i had 100 fenced acres i would probably have 100 dogs. First hand experience with Golden Retrievers, Boxers, Dobermans, Cocker Spaniels, Labrador Retrievers, Schnauzers, Irish Wolf Hounds, Terriers and Yorkies. I periodically raise and train Golden Retrievers for Leaderdogs for the Blind. If i am completely blocked off for a couple weeks i am probably hosting a leaderdog puppy for another raiser that is on a vacation. I have a lot of repeat customers and look forward to seeing their dogs get excited when they pull into my driveway. It would be tough but if i had to pick the breed i couldn't live without i would put Goldens at the top. Even though i don't let any dogs on my bed i’m known for sleeping on the floor in the living-room with the dogs.
“Brigid was great! She sent pics everyday and was very easy to communicate with while we missed our babies. Our cats have very different personalities, so Brigid keeping us updated on how they were doing with her was awesome. Will use again!”
“Aurora was awesome taking care of my 16 year old Chihuahua that is battling cancer and some eye problems, along with our foster pup who can be a handful. They both warmed up to her right away and loved her, she followed instructions for all of their medications and eyedrops to a T.”
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and I am always my friends and family go to pet sitter.

Playing and taking them on walks or just sitting on the couch with them is a great way to spend time together with your pet. I work a part time job and I have a 3 year old daughter. I would drop my daughter off at school and then check on your pet , take them outside to play or on a walk for a couple hours. On my days off I can spend majority of the day with your animals As a dog owner, it’s essential to understand and meet your pet’s basic needs.

13. Veronica W.
“We have used her many times for our "wolf pack"! She had no problem managing our large AND small breeds. Some sitters can be intimidated by larger dogs. She handled them like a pro. We don't like to put our babies in others hands. But continue to use her with reliable results.”

16. Elizabeth S.
“Elizabeth has been helping with my pets for years. She would feed and take my dog for walks when I worked overtime. Now she helps with my cat Luna when I am out of town. Luna only needs her food filled once a day but Elizabeth makes sure to check in on her frequently so she doesn't feel lonely. She spends extra time playing with her and has even stayed at the house until Luna comes out of hiding to make sure she was ok. Now that Luna is familiar with Elizabeth she is happy to see her and will cuddle up in her lap. Elizabeth is kind, caring, respectful and responsible. I have never been disappointed in the care she has given my pets.”
17. Dawn F.
“Can verify she has inept care and handling abilities with both cats and dogs (both separate and together!) Always putting the needs of the animals first and going multiple extra steps to ensure their success and satisfaction! Incredible work ethic for the animal, can really see how much she cares about and gets to know every animal she watches or owns.”
