“Deyna did a great job! We have two high energy beagles. We had very specific instructions that were followed. She also provided lots of pics which is always helpful when you’re away from your dogs. Came back to happy pups!”

“Abby was a great help and captured some entertaining and sweet pictures of my 3 cats while I was away. One of my cats has medical needs that always leaves me anxious when I'm away. But Abby's detailed updates each visit really helped ease that anxiety. Which also allowed me to enjoy my trip more. All 3 cats were taken care of wonderfully!”

“Our dogs love her and she has been great with taking extra steps to care for our senior citizen pups. Bonus, she’s always quick to respond to messages which is appreciated.”
About: With 15 years of dedicated pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of looking after a wide variety of dogs—from tiny Yorkshire Terriers to strong Pit Bulls and gentle Great Danes. I’m passionate about providing personalized, loving attention to each furry friend, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I know more than anyone that these are not merely pets, but family and friends. You can trust me to treat your pets like family! Hello, I currently work during the day as an office manager at a local advertising agency. My schedule is hybrid - I work form home Mondays and Fridays, so I am very flexible. I currently live in a cozy one bedroom apartment in the McKinley Heights negihborhood. There is both a front and backyard in my building but I also often walk to Lafayette Square, which is nearby.
“Stephen is fantastic! We’ve had him visit our cats many times and hes always reliable and kind. Thank you for taking your time with out girls and always being a great choice.”

About: As a child, I grew up with having a cat as a pet. I love them so much, but remember begging my parent for a dog for many years. (Currently my boyfriend is allergic to cats so looks like we’re officially dog people) We finally got a family dog when I was 15, a giant sweetheart, St. Bernard named Rocky. I got my first (full responsibility) dog with my high school boyfriend at 17, a big headed, gentle giant Blue Nose Pitbull. And I adopted my soul dog at 19, our stubborn, loving stinky boy, Tyson! We spend the last 15 year together and he went across the rainbow bridge last year. I was so lucky to have my 80 lb boxer pitbull live as much life as he did by my side. As a 34 year old who is pet-less for the 1st time in forever, I’m here to share my love for animals in my spare time with your sweet babies! My schedule changes frequently. Weekdays are usually best for my availability for walks. Weekends are optional for over night care, but I will be working so they need to be house or crate trained. I have a fenced yard shared with a duplex that has no other animals. There are lots of squirrels and bunnies in my area, but otherwise your furry friend will have the whole yard to theirselves! I enjoy spending time with them in the yard as well
“Bridget was responsive, on time for check ins, and communicated well. She shared pics of our pup, and seemed to enjoy our pups company. Would gladly re-book with her in the future!”
“TzuYu was a wonderful cat sitter; she did everything I asked of her, played with my cat, and sent lots of pictures. I will be asking her to take care of my cat for my next trip too”

“Jennifer did a great job taking care of my cat. I was out of town for a few days and needed someone to check in on my cat while I was gone. Jennifer was quick with her communications, friendly, caring, and easy to work with. I'm very happy with the experience and would definitely ask her to look after my cat again!”

“Caitlin was great! She took great care of our cat and chickens during our weekend away. We loved the pictures and updates she shared during each visit! We will definitely be using her again for future pet sitting.”


“Kyani was great with our high energy husky while we went for a weekend away! She was very responsive, sent over photos and reports and took great care of our dog! Thank you!”

“Nice to come home after a week away to find a happy crew and a clean house! I never worry when Jamie is walking our dog and this time I asked Jamie to care for our foster cat as well. Got twice a day updates on the both of them. So great to know they are on good hands when I can’t be here.”

“Uğur is great! Our two pups loved having him visit and spend some time with them. He did a great job summarizing their visit and took wonderful pics to send to us. Highly recommended!”

“Laura was a great cat sitter. She asked thoughtful questions before her visit, did a stellar job following our instructions, and our kitties were happy and well-fed upon our return! She's an excellent communicator which is very important to us, and kept us up-to-date on all the happenings while we were away, including sending multiple pictures a day. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Katherine is wonderful! She always does a fantastic job caring for my older dogs, Thorin and Nori. Her availability has been excellent, and I know they are in great hands every time. Highly recommend!”

“Hannah was great!! Super responsive when we needed a sitter last minute and great about keeping us updated along the way! Would absolutely book again!”


About: Hi, I'm Emma! By day, I’m a geologist working in brewing operations, but on the weekends, my focus is entirely on providing attentive care for your pets. My professional background means I am incredibly detail-oriented, reliable, and strictly adhere to schedules and routines. My love for animals goes beyond standard pet sitting. I have experience volunteering at The Creature Conservancy in Ann Arbor, MI, where I learned all about animal welfare, and I spent my years in grad school learning about human impacts on urban ecosystems. I also have a deep empathy for rescues and medical care. I personally rescued and successfully nursed my own street cat back to full health, so I am no stranger to administering specialized care, monitoring health cues, and giving extra patience to timid or sensitive animals. I also grew up with sweet rescue dogs- one miniature pinscher, and one Labrador/pitbull mix! Because I work a structured schedule during the week, my weekends are completely dedicated to making sure your pets are safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or gentle, attentive companionship, I'm here to treat them like my own! My schedule allows me to offer dedicated cat care primarily on weekends and Mondays, which are my most flexible days for extended visits and playtime. Additionally, I am available for some early morning/evening drop-ins during the week to make sure your cats are fed, scooped, and loved before the workday begins. Because I maintain a consistent routine, you can count on me to arrive reliably at the specific times your cat expects their meals or medication. Safety and trust are my top priorities when entering your home. As a cat owner who has managed medical recovery, I am hyper-vigilant about environmental safety, including double-checking that windows and doors are securely shut, and ensuring all hazardous items are well out of reach. I respect that cats are territorial, so I focus on keeping their environment calm, clean, and consistent. I will provide detailed daily updates and photos so you have total peace of mind that your home is secure and your cat is thriving.

“Sarah is without question one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. Our senior dogs have become a bit high maintenance in their old age, and she handles everything with absolute grace. She goes above and beyond with every visit and we feel so lucky to have found her!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in McKinley Heights is $20

Jenn was available on short notice to take care of my 2 kitties. She came over to meet them and was very sweet and patient. She was able to give my cat Sherlock his medicine without any issues and she sent me photos and video each day when she visited which made me feel so much more at ease while I was away. Would highly recommend her to care for your pets and won’t hesitate to have her care for mine again in the future!

Thank you so much Caitlin for taking such great care of our littles! They were so happy, healthy, and calm when we got back! Excited to see us but not desperate, such a testimate to how comfortable they were with you and how much fun they had!! So grateful for your care of not only the boys but our home too. A most sincere thank you.

Kyani is amazing! She takes care of our pups like they are her own. I can see how happy they are while we are away which always gives us peace of mind. One of our pups had some upset stomach issues this trip and she went above and beyond to ensure he was taken care of even getting him probiotics. I cannot recommend her enough and we are very lucky to have found her.

I was so nervous about leaving Jeff alone while I was at work, but I felt so much better knowing Abby would be there to check on him and give him the care and attention he needed. Abby is attentive, quick to respond, and genuinely cares. I highly recommend Abby!

Sweet and agreeable, Kai is a pretty good young sitter. There were some discrepancies in rates and time lengths spent on a few of the visits, and we had some worries about my newer rescue's resistant responses. But all went well for the most part and i would recommend Kai to others.
