2. Daizee-Mae H.
About: For several years I owned a Doggy B and B where the dogs were part of my family. There were no cages or crates which the owners really appreciated. They slept in bed with me, jumped and lounged on all the furniture, watched TV, ate plenty of homemade treats, went swimming in the pool and don't forget the car rides to the park and river. Every weekend I would shop for new, safe and tough toys. We celebrated holidays and birthdays with homemade pupcakes, presents and costumes. They also got a "report" card saying how their day was and what they did that day or weekend. There were lots of pictures taken and shared too. Areas and toys were thoroughly inspected each day to ensure a safe and fun playtime. I love pets! All kinds of them. Your pet will get my undivided attention. I bring toys & treats plus send lots of pictures while you're away. That way you can enjoy our pawty too. Since I can't have pets in my home, I'll come to your pet's home. I care for them like they are mine. Give them lots of pets, play with toys inside & outside, walk them on a leash several times a day, watch TV with them & most importantly, share the bed at night. I want your pet to feel comfortable & loved by me.

4. Miles W.
“Hello, Miles is a very conscientious pet caregiver, he has grown up helping us raise dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, on our small hobby farm. We showed our turkeys and goats for 3 years at the 4H fair in Centreville and he was very mindful of the care and cleanliness of our 4H clubs animals, plus some of the turkeys one year when they looked hungry and stressed. He seems to read the animals body language and knows how to approach them. He helped save a baby bird once as well and turned it loose when was ready. He takes excellent care of our animals, he actually carried his turkeys to the show pen at the fair! He is a very on hands pet sitter, absolutely makes sure the pets are clean, comfortable and that they are safe.”


5. Sydnee P.
“Sydnee was a joy to have in charge of my feral Lou while I was away for a week. She was attentive to Lou’s needs and made sure that Lou had her favorite YouTube cat videos to watch which relieves her stress. And, she sent me a pic of Lou to relieve my stress! She’s a wonder sitter and I will hire her again!”


6. Ashley P.
About: I am an outgoing, active, and loving person who prides herself in going above and beyond for animals and people. I aim to please and make the time away from your animals as easy as possible with no worries on the attention and care they get from me. I am currently a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule and can fit anything into my schedule. I would like to keep my clients close to home for emergency purposes and also to keep costs down for everyone. I have a clean background and run a small zoo in my home. 5 dogs, 1 cats, 3 pythons, 1 turtle, 1 leopard gecko, 3 fish tanks. I have a broad experience taking care of animals of all kinds. Including farm animals. I thrive on routine and promise to keep your animals on theirs. Trust and the care of your pets is number one.

“They are the best! Reliable, caring and loving.”


8. Anne T.
About: Every dog is different, and must be evaluated to establish the proper care for them. The basic rules of engagement is trust, loyalty, respect, love and of course treats. I demonstrate a leader of a pack with confidence in meeting new dogs, engaging to meet every dog's needs. I have trained my own dogs along with friends dogs. The success is based on how well you evaluate them. I really love the compassion and unconditional love they have for their human's. I have cared for and raised puppies into beautiful old puppies and when my golden slowed down and was barely able to walk, I had to make the hardest decision of my life. The reason I am interested in dog care, is because while I was at work, she was home alone waiting for me to get home and it would have been great to have someone come pay attention to her. I want to be there for pets, for the people that can't be, and brighten their pets day while they make money to care for them. I also understand what its like to try to plan a vacation with pets, the pet deserves their own little vacation while the family takes a break. My outlook is you can't have too many best friends and wish to make a few more on my journey.

11. Jacklyn A.
“Jacklyn is one of a kind! The absolute BEST with my beagle, Waylon. She gives him his morning and afternoon walks, ALL of the snuggles, and makes sure he is fed while I’m at work. She cleans up after herself AND Waylon. The house is cleaner when I come home from work than it was when I left, thanks to Jack! No one I would trust more with my fur baby ❤️”


12. Amber A.
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.

18. 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!!”
