House Sitting in Mecosta

About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats for over 30 years. Animal husbandry is my passion. Understanding animal behavior is crucial and I insist on a meet and greet to ensure we are all compatible. I am retired and have an open schedule to meet the needs of your favorite fur baby. I’m currently at a time in my life where I want to spend more time with animals. Being retired frees me up to do just that. I live a simple quiet life now and would enjoy sharing my skills of caring and loving your family fur baby. At the clients home is my preference. I feel your pet needs the security of their own familiar space and home when you are gone. Also to have all their treats and toys and beds allow them to interact with me in a safe environment. Walking playing and snuggling 24/7 when you are not home is my goal!

“Brittney did an excellent job house sitting with my dog Millie. She walked Millie several times a day and sent lots of pictures and feedback. She followed instructions well and asked questions when a scenario did fit the instructions. I would definitely ask her to help out again.”

“Emily was incredible. She took on a task of dog sitting over Christmas and her being here gave us the peace of mind that is difficult to find when you leave your pet at home for the Holidays. She was always in communication and you can tell immediately that animals gravitate to her and become instantly comfortable. Thank you, Emily”

About: I am a veterinary technician that has tons of experience in care of animals. Including puppy, kitten, adult, and seniors. The care and safety of animals is my goal! I have Fridays and weekends off, and absolutely love animals! I strive to work with them as much as possible and to help make a difference for busy pet owners! :) My pets are offered endless play time with enrichment activities at home! I tend to their needs and they have a strict special diet that they are required with strict amounts.

About: I have loved and cared for many types of animals since childhood and have had two Beagle babies of my own for almost 10 years now! I will care for your pets as if they are my own. My communication and close attention to detail helps me to follow specific instructions, and as I am very particular about my pets - I understand how to ease the worries associated with someone else caring the way you would. Frequent updates and pictures is the way I roll so you won’t have to worry about a thing. Flexibility is everything to me, also being a caretaker to a grandparent, so if you are not sure if I am a good fit… let’s talk about it! My schedule is a balancing act but I am lucky enough to work from home, which allows me more flexibility with seeing and caring for my furry friends. I understand some things happen in life and I would love to help where I can! I will care for your pets in the exact manner you request, along with extra love, doting, attention, patience and empathy. Trust is everything when it comes to what you love, and my goal is for everyone to have the best experience.

“I am more than happy with the service provided by Megan (and Scott). I asked they take Frank on a walk because he had been crated for a few hours, feed him and just hang out for a while. They went beyond, by taking him on 2 walks, sending several pictures of a smiley happy dog and communicating throughout the visit what Frank was up to. They are friendly, knowledgeable about dogs and training, timely and reliable. We were at ease being gone for so long knowing Frank was in good hands. I will absolutely use them again when we need someone to take care of our boy.”

“Alana was wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and communicative throughout the stay, sending daily updates and photos which gave us a lot of peace of mind.
