I have spent many years watching pets for my neighbors, friends and families. I volunteered at the Michigan Humane Society as a dog trainer for many years, specializing in dogs who were shy or scared, and helping them work through their anxiety to increase their chances of adoption. I have extensive experience with elderly dogs and their special healthcare needs. I have puppies at home, so I know all about the shenanigans those little ones can get up to as well. During house sitting, I pamper the pets and manage the home. You won't have to worry about mail, packages, watering plants/gardens, or linens. I would say that my goal is to be an invisible house guest but I always leave your home cleaner than how I found it. I can also perform side work for an hourly rate like organizing, cleaning, grooming, errands, etc. while I am there. My client's most common requests include shampooing carpets, deep cleaning inside refrigerators, patching small holes, and washing/changing all linens. Is there a task you intend to eventually get to that keeps getting put off? Let's talk about it. Maybe I can help!
