About: I have experience in working in a vet clinic and on a local farm of large animals. I have been trained to minister care for all cats/dogs of all breeds/sizes. If your pet has any health issues such as diabetes or has hit senior years, no worries! New puppy paws running around? Glad to be of assistance to help them learn better manners and play til the nap! I am a full time student at Michigan State University but am off for the summer! I am very flexible and can provide care for your pets around my schedule. I’m free on the weekends as well. I am in the Kalamazoo area until August 14th, 2025 due to having to go back to school for clinicals. Since I am not able to keep your pets in my home due to space, I will treat your home with all respect. If you have places and boundaries that are set, they will be followed accordingly. If your pet or myself makes a mess, it will be cleaned up immediately! I have a pet cleaner machine and products to get pet stains out in a jiffy!
About: Throughout my life I have cared for two cats and a Bichon-Frise/Poodle Mix. I was involved in caring for my dog from the day he came to us: showing him how to use stairs within those first couple of days and teaching commands for the next couple of years. Inevitably he aged, and over time I developed a familiarity with handling the many facets of caring for an aging dog: arthritis, anxiety, mobility challenges, and mood shifts. I learned the tricks for keeping him calm in the car, and those for getting him to take his medications. In all those years I consistently played with him in our fields, took him for walks, and ignored his grouching when I bumped him in his sleep. I love all animals very much, but as an innately energetic person, and as someone who is convinced (like most) that I had the best dog in the world, I find I bond most quickly and most deeply with dogs. I would be thrilled to meet yours. I am a recent college graduate looking for work while I job search. During the day I apply to jobs on my computer. Then, at night, I apply to jobs on my computer. My schedule is almost entirely open. In general I do my best to follow the pet's pace/lead, prioritizing the animal's comfort whenever possible. I follow provided schedules in a regimented manner, and if a schedule is not provided, then I will develop one myself. I take things like medication management and potty breaks very seriously, aware that when an owner is gone, pets are often stressed, and this stress can exacerbate pain and/or behavioral struggles. Regardless of the weather I am always happy to move and be active, so regular walks/exercise with pets is no trouble. As a pet lover, quality time is never an inconvenience either. I am more than thrilled, if your pet is more of a lounger than a runner, to just sit with them and relax.
“Ashley was kind in looking after my shy cat. Would be happy to use her services again.”
About: I have always loved taking care of animals of every kind and I have been doing it for forever. If you let me take care of your pet, they will be loved and cherished and you will have a trustworthy and respectful person in your home. I am currently a college student so I am hoping to work with your pets on my breaks at home. On breaks or weekends I will be over to see your pet regularly and I will make sure each pet is well taken care of. That means working them into my daily routine. At your home, I am putting your pet and your house first. I will clean, take care of and watch anything you need me to while you give me permission to be at your home with your pet. No matter what I will make sure your house is taken care of and your pet is comfortable around me.
“She took such great care of Matilda! Loved the regular photos and updates!”
About: I have taken care of my household dogs, cats, and bird since I was 6 years old. I started watching family members animals when I was about 13 years old, giving me 5 years of experience with pet care. I grew up on a saddlebred farm, so I am very used to taking care of all types of animals. I am also very used to giving medication to dogs. I am a current college student at the University of Alabama and take classes from 10 am to 2 pm. However, I am dedicated to taking care of your animals and will prioritize them after my classes are over. During pet sitting I will walk, feed, and make sure your dog has water before I leave for class, and then come straight back to the house to walk your dog again. When I am pet/house sitting I will follow your guidelines on feeding times and rules. When it comes to walking I will ensure they will get a lot of outside time whether that includes letting them outside to play in the backyard, or taking them on several walks throughout the day. When I am overnight pet sitting I walk them at least once at night.
About: I have experience with dogs of all age ranges, sizes, and needs. I am also a dog mom of two rescues (blue heeler mix and beagle mix). Within the last few years I have also fostered and dog sat for a number of friends and family members. I am currently a senior at Western Michigan University and have all virtual classes, which makes my schedule a little more flexible. I am just looking for a way to work while doing something I enjoy! All dogs are leashed while on walks and I have plenty of doggy bags! I allow pets on furniture unless the owner requests otherwise and am also willing to bathe or brush clients if requested.
“Judith did an amazing job taking care of my cat. I’ve used her before and booked her again. I would highly recommend her and would use her again.”
“Leah did a wonderful job making sure Munchie and Oreo were fed and watered daily per our request. Munchie enjoyed having some extra pets while we were on vacation. Over all we are very pleased with the service Leah provided. We will use again for our next extended vacation”
About: Price will be discounted if payment is made through Venmo. I have 8 dogs of my own that I view as my family. I’ve also work at an emergency vet clinic for 2 years so I know how to monitor their health and what to do in an emergency/ and how to avoid them. I also work as a groomer on the side so if that’s something you are interested in let me know! I’ve had and worked with animals of all types from a young age. However dogs are my soft spot. I can’t express into words the joy these animals bring into my life. My job allows me the flexibility of time and travel! I also have coached and played soccer for many years so being active is a goal of mine! Each client will be a different case and have different needs. I will do whatever’s requested in a professional, friendly, and loving manor. Also previously being a property manager I know the proper way to care when in someone else’s home. Also having worked in vet med I know how to safely care for your pet.
About: I've had a lot of experience taking care of dogs of all ages. Growing up, we always had several dogs. I would always do the basic stuff you think about, like walking the dogs, feeding the dogs, etc. Ideally, this is what I will be doing for work. I can fit pet care into my schedule and whatever time helps me best do the job. The most important thing would be to follow any directions given to me by the pet owner. After all, they know the pet best. From there, it is about using basic pet care skills that I know I have.
About: I have always had a passion for animals. I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a child. It's always been a love of mine and I want to be able to share my love with other animals as well. You can rest assure your beloved animal will be cared for when you leave them with me. I currently work a full time job. I would be able to care for your pet in the afternoons and weekends currently. I am hoping to be able to open up my schedule more in the future. I can use a leash/harness that you have available to walk your animal or let them outside if needed. I will pay close attention to them and assess whatever they may need.
About: I was born into a family of pet lovers. We have had a wide array of pets in our home-cats, dogs, lizards, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish and more. I have become my church and friends' go-to pet sitter for years. I not only provide the love and care that pets need, I am also a licensed pet massage therapist, so your pet will get extra love! I am self-employed, so my schedule varies and is very open for providing top notch pet care. My day is better when I am able to provide love and care for animals! I provide pet care in your home and am able to work with your pet(s) specific needs and schedules. I want them to feel as unaffected by your absence as possible!

Daniel H.
“Danny watched Bliss and Bella while we went away for a father's day week trip. We had him come over, meet the dogs and they loved him right away. He is such a natural with dogs and I felt comfortable with him right away. Our dogs are fed a raw food diet and have treat allergies, but none of this scared him away! (Which we were very thankful for) He was on time, let the dogs out multiple times a day, kept up on their normal schedule, played outside with them and even gave them puppy massages! Our dogs were well taken care of and I would recommend anyone to have their dogs watched by Danny! He was amazing and made leaving for vacation so much easier!!”
