Keana was awesome! She took my 120lb. GSD to the park and used a special leash for him to help train him which I didn’t even ask her to do. Looking forward to building a relationship together! Highly recommend her services. ?

Wyandotte, MI, 48192

We moved to the area in July and were really searching for a dog sitter. Our lives changed drastically when we moved as where before we moved someone was home every four hours with our dog Gabe. Moving to Wyandotte changed that as we both commute to work and coming home for lunch is not a possibility. Finding Erin was a God-send. For not only is she an awesome friend to Gabe but she is responsible, dependable and willing to switch her schedule to accommodate ours. That’s pretty hard to find no matter where you live. We trust Erin with the care of our Dog and this is very important for a special needs dog. I can tell you with certainty that WHEN you hire ERIN you get someone who puts your dog as #1. Erin is not only our dogs best buddy but also becoming our friend as well. Gabe’s ears raise to attention when we say “Erin is coming today.” Gabe makes happy noises when Erin comes into the house. Wait maybe God-send is an understatement. Erin has blessed our lives by being that special someone we can trust to come into our house, take our dog for a walk, spend meaningful times with him and leave the house as secure as she found it. Friends like Erin and her husband are the kind of folks you want to have more of in your lives. They are both great people and will not leave you disappointed. In fact you will rest at ease knowing that the care of your family member is in the care of Erin. Most of my reviews I joke around - but I wanted to leave a review from the pit of my heart so you know how we feel about Erin as our sitter.

About: Hi! My name is Yvonne, and I would love to care for your dog/cat. I will always do anything possible to make them feel 100% comfortable and happy. I have 10 years experience caring for children ages 0-6 and would love to extend that care to your fur babies. When you book my services, I would love to know their favorite toy, food, treat, place to sleep, and/or if they have a favorite place to get scratches/rubs! Your pet's comfort and trust is my priority, along with your trust and respect. If there is ever any issues or questions, please don't hesitate and let me know. I'm always happy to help! I currently have a part time job working late nights, so I am available to do drop-ins or walks on most afternoons during the week. I like to make my client's furbabies feel comfortable while they are in my care. I make sure to give them all the attention they need.

About: I've been caring for animals all my life and have grown up with them always in the home. I work hard to make sure they feel welcomed and love while in my care since I know it can be hard for them being away from family. I have fostered and volunteered with rescues and local shelters for 10 years. I have also been a wildlife rehabber for 6 years and greatly enjoy helping all animals in need. I do currently have one dog that is back end paralyzed and loves everyone and everything. Im currently working part time from home so I will always be here with the furry friends I am caring for. I have a daily routine of getting up early, letting the doggy's outside, feeding them breakfast, going for walks when the weather allows, lots of toys to play with, feed them dinner and have a good time together. We also work on basic training and enjoying lots of love and cuddles. I have a fenced in yard, wonderful neighbors and a welcoming environment for even nervous dogs. I have baby gates set up as well to keep everyone safe.

About: I have been caring for animals since elementary school. I watched cats and dogs for neighbors and friends of the family. As I got older, I started getting referrals for pets from around the community and cared for those animals too. The arch of my kindness and care is not limited to animals, as I also provide care for the elderly. I cared for both of my grandparents and my father until his passing. I currently provide care and other services to a 104 year-old young lady who is believed to be my community’s oldest living resident and yes, she still walks and does not use a wheelchair. I am self-employed and have a very flexible schedule. I can care for your pet any day of the week (unless I have another pet scheduled for that day) and at times convenient for most people. I am here to follow your instructions and schedule without deviation. Your fur baby will be feed exactly at the time(s) directed by you, same with any medication(s). For dogs, I will take them outside for walks and indoor/outdoor play as weather permits, and see that their water is always fresh with some treats and cuddles too. For cats, it is play and more play; plus fresh water and treats, then snuggling when we are done.

About: I’ve had numerous dogs throughout my years including fosters, seniors, puppies and newborns. I have experience administering medications and aiding in mobility for the seniors. I have a one year old german shepherd mix. I have been with and handled lots of different breeds and energy levels. Pet care is everything to me and I’m looking to open that up from just my pup. I am available most of the time except Wednesdays. I have a fenced yard, lots of toys, outdoor and indoor beds, extra leases, lick mats, separate feeding stations, as well as a crate if needed.

Alysia was great! Friendly, professional, welcoming. My boy instantly took a liking to Alysia and she showed such care and friendliness. She sent photos along their walk and took my same day request with ease. I will certainly be using Alysia again.
