About: I'm an owner of a kitty. I've watched other people's pets ever since I can remember. I'm relied on as a good pet sitter, always wanting the best for your pets. Plus I'm a lover of giving treats and good pets I've recently moved down to Saline MI from Marquette MI. I'm currently job searching, having no luck. I have most days, all day avaliable for any if your pets needs! Like I said, I'm a lover of good pets and giving treats. My kitty is quite the diva, and super spoiled. I believe every pet deserves the best care, and I'm here for them when you can't be!

“Kristopher has been amazing with Brownie, always reliably on time, communicates effectively and I would refer all of my family+friends. Always goes above and beyond. Thank you so much Kristopher!”


“Maura has been great and patient with Rusty and Lenny. We really appreciate her and her willingness to get to know the boys and keep us informed of how everything went during the walk. Thanks, Maura!!”


About: I grew up with pets in my home since I was a child, it was always a mixture of dogs and cats! I love taking goofy pictures of them! I‘m currently going to school, but I‘m free most of the time! I have summers completely off so just let me know what you need! I have the most experience with bigger dogs and cats, but I love all animals! I can handle pets with a lot of energy as well. I‘m very organized and can handle a lot of instructions, like if your pet needs medicine or special food!

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s pets numerous times including feeding, walking, medications, vet visits, etc. I also have some experience training my pets and working with dogs who tend to be anxious. I recently moved to Ann Arbor to attend graduate school in the fall, so I have lots of time to care for your pets! I can be there during most of the day, overnight, or stop by for specific needs. I am very rule-oriented and will judiciously follow any guidelines set up for taking care of your pets. I will treat your home with the utmost care.

About: While I'm more used to cats, I do also love dogs. Have a dog with separation anxiety? I can keep them company for a while! I will be working part-time Monday-Friday from 2 pm to 6 pm. I will be available to watch your pets from 9:30 am-1:30 pm on those days (despite what options this site gave). On Saturdays and Sundays I'll be available from 3 pm-8 pm. If I am unable to watch a pet at any time, I will let you know ahead of time by at least a few days. I currently own a cat, Higgins, who is a big lovebug and fairly food motivated. I've been in charge of feeding him breakfast and dinner since we rescued him in 2015, along with scooping his litterbox. He's also needed nightly medication for some stomach issues, so I have experience giving him a pill. I can feed your pet, clean up after them whether they have a set schedule or not, and provide medication if necessary.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals since I was very young. I have experience with pets who need medication, frequent walks, special diets, and/or are physically impaired. I also have experience keeping the peace in multi-pet households. I am currently home for the summer before heading to college and have availability throughout the summer to take care of pets! I am available most days and weekends (excluding Tuesdays before 1) to pet sit or walk. I am highly flexible and willing to do whatever is needed to keep your pet(s) safe and happy. I am willing to go on walks throughout the day, give lots of attention to your pet, or just co-exist near each other.

About: I have had pets my whole life. My first cat grew up with me. My parents got him while I was in Preschool. I have many fond memories of him, and used to help with his care whenever I could. I have house/dog sat for neighbors while I was growing up. I have experience raising a Pitbull, he was an awesome brindle coated sweetheart. He was my roommate's dog but I loved him as I would my own. I also raised a Shiba Inu, she was amazing. So beautiful, and loyal. She was my best friend for 14 wonderful years. Anyone who knows that breed knows that they can be especially challenging, but we got along great. I volunteer at Cascades Humane Society in Jackson. I love going there in my free time to walk dogs, cuddle or play with cats or just try to help with anything I can. Currently my close family (parents and siblings) have six dogs and six cats combined between all of us. I am also the Dogfather to some of them, and they would come to me if anything happened. Right now I have a 13 year old rescue cat named Daisy. She gets special food from the vet, and regular pills. She also gets lots of love and lap time. I also have a Norwegian Buhund puppy. He is super friendly and outgoing. I have walked dogs of all sizes and personalities. From Huskys that want to go, go, go! to lazy little dogs just want to sniff and stroll. With our own fur baby. We have a regimented feeding schedule with our cat. Breaking up her can of food into many smaller meals throughout the day to help her with her conditions. Our dog gets multiple daily walks and lots of attention as he is still just a pup and prone to “tasting” things he shouldn’t. We’re doing lots of redirection. I spent years as a maintenance man for a property management company. I also spent years as an appliance repair man. Respecting people, their homes, and furry friends is nothing new to me. I have been trying to absorb as much information about animal behavior as possible and do my best to communicate with animals in a way they understand. Giving your dog a friendly greeting is very different from how most people greet them. Some need some time and an indirect approach. Walking straight toward a dog head on is instinctually considered quite rude in canine interactions. Cats also have their own language and way of doing things. I try hard to always respect that.

About: I grew up in a 6 cat household at one point, so I have the most experience working with cats, however I've cared for many family members dogs while they are away, such as my sister's very active 5 year old, blue heeler mix (Sora) that she has had since 2021. I am comfortable caring for, feeding, playing, and walking small to medium dogs. My schedule is pretty flexible and open at the moment as I am studying to take a board certified exam and applying to future positions within my field. I can assist in early mornings, midday or in the evenings. Unfortunately since I have two cats at home, I am unable to board other animals at our location. I am flexible and adaptive to caring for your pets in your home for drop in visits, depending on their discussed needs.

About: Hi, I’m Mariana. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I’m originally from Ukraine, and growing up, I was the one people turned to when their pets needed love and attention. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every dog like family — giving them all the care, treats, and attention they deserve. No matter their size, age, or personality, I do my best to make every pet feel important, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. I also know how much it means to stay connected while you’re away, so I always keep owners updated with plenty of pictures and videos to help you feel at ease. I have a nice big yard your dog can have plenty of fun playing and running in. I’m currently working from home, so I’ll be able to spend lots of time with your pup throughout the day! Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, or just some company while I work, your dog will always have attention and care. Your dog’s safety and happiness mean everything to me. I make sure they’re always supervised, well cared for, and never feel alone or anxious. I keep a cozy space for them to relax and follow any feeding, walking, or medication routines you provide. I can crate your dog if needed and give them quiet time, or lots of play and attention — whatever they’re used to at home. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and completely comfortable while you’re away.
