House Sitting in Maple City

“Steph was an exceptional dog and house sitter! She took my dog Blue for several walks/day, provided daily updates/pictures and left my house very clean. I was able to relax during my time away knowing my dog and house were in good hands. I would definitely ask her to care for Blue again!”

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!

“Christina was a pleasure to work with. Our pup had a great staycation with Christina. She provided daily updates with pics, provided Aspen with a lot of exercise, walks and hikes. We came home to our home just as we left it. We would definitely use Christina again in the future.”

“Mika (my cat) was well cared for while I was away for several days. Kris sent photos and it was clear that MIka was smitten. I think that Kris is her new favorite person. I appreciated the care that Kris provided Mika, as well as my home. It was great coming back to a happy cat and a clean house!”

“This was the first time I have ever employed a Pet service to care for my pet. At the Meet and Greet, my dog, Coco, warmed up to Audriss immediately. I knew then that she would take care of Coco with kindness, patience, and attentiveness otherwise Coco would be off-standish. I wasn't wrong. Audriss presents herself very well. I could assess that she is knowledgeable about pet care and cares about the pets she is caring for. Her communication with me was perfect. Her responses were timely. She was respectful of the place I was staying at which I appreciated. I will use Audriss's pet service again when I am vacationing in Glen Arbor. I highly recommend her to care for your pet(s).”

“We rarely leave our two chihuahuas home and so we were delighted to meet Emily and have her sit at the house for an entire week. Emily was responsible, very communicative, sweet to our girls and, above all, with them most of each day. We will definitely ask Emily to sit for our girls again! Annie + Craig”

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.

“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.”

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.

“Patty is a great house/dog sitter! She stayed our home w our German Shepherd Roxie for 3 days and nights. Every detail was perfect and we came home to a happy Dog and happy house. Thank you Patty”

Marian T.

“I could not have asked for a better sitter with Regan. She was so attentive to my baby and took him on all the adventures. I would say I can’t wait to book her again, but I already have two additional stays booked with her…..Otis and I could not be more excited. She sent photos galore that made me so happy. Otis was a tired pup when I arrived home so I knew he had the absolute best time.”

Taylor B.

“Maggie was a great sitter! She stayed in touch and sent photos of our pets while we were away for two weeks which was much appreciated. She took great care of them and our home while we were gone. Would absolutely recommend her to others!”

Randi T.

“Kara was so lovely to work with. She was flexible, timely, and easy to communicate with. She sent me pictures of my dog and gave me great updates. I will definitely be working with Kara again.”

Rachel Z.

“Maria was so sensitive and wonderful and aware of our animals needs! She took great care in making sure our English bulldog had everything he needed, all his medications and extra love and affection! She also took amazing care of our cat- she is truly the most perfectly well-rounded house and pet sitter, and had great communications with questions and updates all through her stay! If your pet is like your child, she is a perfect fit. We can’t wait to book Maria again!”

Caroline S.

“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!”

“Aubrey took care of our sweet Morty for a few days. Morty has some health challenges, and Aubrey was confident administering all of his meds. She was communicative, and we really appreciate the care she provided to Morty.”

Sara R.

“Marg was super great with our elderly dog, Maggie! She sent regular updates and appreciated her special needs! We highly recommend Marg for drop in visits and/or house sitting.”

About: I used to work at a vet clinic, so I am good with emergencies and handling special instructions. I am professional, organized, communicative and trustworthy. I work from home 99% of the time, so my schedule is extremely flexible and I’ll hang out with your pets as long as needed. What you say goes and you know what is best for your pet, so tell me what you need and I’ll happily make it happen.

About: Hello! I'm a student at NMU with tons of dog care experience! I've had three family dogs that I've taken care of, and I've walked, dog sat, and bathed many dogs for family/friends over the years. I volunteered at my local dog shelter for a summer where I walked, played with, and helped socialize the dogs, which was SUCH a rewarding experience. I am a huge animal lover, and I promise to treat your pets with love, energy, and care. Fun fact, I love dogs so much that I went on a dog podcast this summer! Go to episode 30 of "FOLLOW ME: I'M A D.O.G! PODCAST" if you want to hear me talk about my childhood dogs and why they're so important to me :) During the summer, I work from 7:15-1:15 five days a week. I am happy to check in on your dog once before work, and a few times after work! On my days off, I can spend even more time with your pup. Let me know what you’re looking for, and we’ll see if we can work something out! While I cannot host dogs in my own apartment, I promise to treat your living space (and your puppy) as if it were my own. Like I said, I grew up with dogs, have dog sat for family/friends, and have volunteered in an animal shelter, so I'm experienced in sensing what a dog needs, respecting their space, and giving them all the attention they need when they want it.

“Katrina was instantly warm and friendly…. She was totally all about Tommy and his needs. Katrina was on time, followed my requested needs for Tommy…. Truly a dog whisperer! We would highly recommend her. Thank you ??”
