About: I have been around dogs and cats since a very young age and have so much love for animals! I’ve been taking care of my current employers dog that I nanny at for almost three years now, and I’ve done quite a few overnight house sittings for close friends and Rover clients. I’m a fast learner on anything you can teach me about your animals! Let me know any questions you may have, I’m happy to answer! Currently living with my parents after graduating college, I am a substitute teacher so I pick up jobs when I can! That means I can be as available as you’d like me for your pets. Feel free to ask me any questions you have on my schedule I am happy to work something out with you. I’m very flexible with any care you need me to provide for your pets! I have 2 dogs of my own that I have cared for and I love giving pets and cuddles! I also take safety and security very seriously when you invite me into your home.
About: Hello, and thanks for stopping by! My name is Cliff - simply put, I love dogs. The majority of my adult life has been centered around dogs - training, breeding, raising puppies and providing excellent care to help them succeed. My wife and I are currently have 4 Brittanys - Yeti, Ember, Aspen and Fox. Working with me you are getting someone who will be attentive to every dogs needs, understand how they work and able to connect with them for whatever care is needed. Whether its dropping into say hi, a scheduled feeding time or a walk through the neighborhood, my goal is to provide you with the peace of mind you need to get through your day knowing your 4 legged friend is in excellent hands. Owning 4 high energy sporting dogs has taught me a lot of patience in truly trying to understand a dogs needs and how to handle them. No matter the age or size of your dog, I am 100% confident I can meet their needs. I am comfortable handling emergency situations where a dog may need first aid or administrating medicine if needed. I feel right at home managing multiple dogs at once, and dogs of all ages - puppies to seniors. Owning dogs is a lot of work, I understand this and am here to help. Thanks for stopping by, don't hesitate to reach out or ask questions! I am self-employed and my hours are very flexible, even on short notice. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you are in a pinch! Training and handling dogs is a big part of what I do. My patience and knowledge of understanding how dogs work to fulfill their needs is something I take a lot of pride in.
“Leann took care of my small flock of chickens (and duck) while away for two weeks. She communicated everyday to make sure I was comfortable and sent pictures and updates. It was just what I needed to trust everyone was being looked after and spoiled and it was clear how much she loves animals! In addition to great care, she was flexible when I had last minute travel changes come up. Would absolutely recommend and use her services again. 10/10!”
About: I have two dogs of my own. A beagle named Copper and a golden retriever named Autumn. I also raise golden retriever puppies!

My dream is to someday own my own dog kennel that gives at home feels so you can rest easy that your pup is cared for to your standards and your pup comes home happy! I am a school employee. That leaves me with the schedule wide open to take care of dogs June- August. This schedule grants me the a availability your dogs need for a positive, fun stay! I have a XXL dog kennel/ room just for dogs! Comfortable beds, toys, treats, and walking provided. They also have access to a fenced in yard with toys! Toys and blankets are washed weekly.

About: I am a stay at home mom with 2 school - aged boys. My kids love dogs almost as much as I do and are very good at helping out with them. I have been a dog owner for 30+ years and our dogs have always been treated like family, including having their own Christmas stockings. Unfortunately, we had to put both of our girls (black labs, ages 14 and 15) down, so we are currently a pet-free home. I will only care for dogs in my home that get along with children so everyone will feel comfortable. If your dog plays well with others, (s)he will be treated as family! I work from home, so I spend the majority of my day at home. Your pet will not be alone for long, if at all. We live on 3 acres and while we don’t have a fenced yard, your pet will spend plenty of time outside (on a leash) and be walked around the yard every few hours. I currently work from home. I will be able to take your pet for multiple walks daily and attend to their needs consistently. Even though I work from home, my time is important. Last minute requests will have a $25 charge added to the booking. I do not have a fenced yard, but I have a good amount of property and will walk your pup throughout the day. If they need more exercise, I do have a long lead I can put them on to play fetch or just run around. I do not allow the pups to be outside unsupervised or unleashed at any time.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently share my home with two wonderful cats, and I grew up surrounded by a wide variety of animals—including two Huskies, two bunnies, three cats, and a fun-loving Amazon caique parrot. I still spend a lot of time with them at my parents’ home and continue to help out with their care. In addition to my background with household pets, I also have experience working with farm animals and reptiles. Whether it’s feeding, grooming, administering care, or just spending time making sure they’re happy and comfortable, I truly enjoy working with animals of all types and sizes. My love for animals can’t be expressed enough—they are truly family to me, and I’ll treat your pets with the same level of care and affection as I do my own. Whether you need a sitter, a walker, or just someone to check in and give your pets a little love, you can count on me to be dependable and kind. I live in Capac and work in Lapeer, so I’m happy to help out in either area. Feel free to message me anytime—I’d love to meet you and your animals and work out a plan that fits your needs! 💞 I do currently work full-time, but I’m mostly available after 5 PM and on weekends. While I’m away during the day, my trusted neighbor helps check in on my pets if needed, so you can rest assured that all animals in my care are looked after consistently and responsibly. I will always have things in handy is something ever were to go wrong/emergency. I will always clean up any mess that has happened in my care. Your pets needs always come first, as ALL of their needs will be up to task! :)

About: I was grew up on a farm and have spent most of my life with animals. I worked at a local vet clinic in high school, trained horses and I have worked in rescue.

Dex and I did everything together and he's the one who made me fall in love with Border Collies and all things dog related. I have been training, showing and breeding for nearly 23 years.

My hours are generally very flexible and I am available whenever best suits you and your pets needs. Most of free time is spent with my dogs or with clients.
