House Sitting Merrill

“Aria took diligent care of our pup Ellie while we were both away on work trips. When Ellie wasn't feeling well Aria kept me up to date the whole time, which made me feel comfortable in what could otherwise be a very concerning situation. She even gave Ellie a bath when she rolled around in the mud! Thanks Aria for all your help 🙏”

“Neika was an amazing sitter for my dog, Morty! He has a lot of energy and isn't always the easiest dog to handle, but she did an incredible job with him. Since he's recovering from surgery, I was especially anxious about leaving him, but Neika kept me updated with messages and pictures that gave me so much peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by cleaning his surgical wound, which I truly appreciated. It's clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I highly recommend Neika to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive sitter!”

“Shaylin did an excellent job taking care of my dogs and ensuring all of my care instructions were understood and followed. She provided regular updates and was responsive whenever I reached out. I’d definitely recommend!”

“Our dogs love Sydney. There are happy, fed and well played with when we come home. We’d recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter at your house.”

“Shayla is a true animal lover and we were more than happy to have chose her to watch our pets(: She sent us pictures daily and the animals were obviously well taken care of when we arrived back home from vacay. I would definitely recommend her and I would very likely hire her again if possible.”

“Lucy was so patient and kind with my huge baby! This was the first time in 8 years I’ve ever left Gracey with a sitter because of her severe anxiety. Lucy came to visit us a few days prior and I was so pleased to see her interact with my dog. It calmed my fears and I was actually able to enjoy my night out without worry. Thank you Lucy! We will definitely use her again.”

“Shannon has been with my dogs twice now. First time was as a drop in visit and second time was house sitting for 4 days. She kept me updated throughout the time I was away as well as kept my dogs very happy. They loved being with her and I was pleased with her care for my dogs. Shannon will now be my regular pet sitter as she is available and willing!”

“Makayla did a wonderful job caring for my two dogs for an extended time. Will be using her services again since they loved her as a dogsitter.”

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life from guinea pigs to elderly dogs. I am a graduate from the University of Michigan and am studying at Tufts for the next two years. I dog sat after school for a while and took care of puppies, elderly pets, and bunnies. I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am busy on Wednesdays, but my weekends and others days of the week are much more flexible. Afternoons are always best but I can make things work! I cannot provide pet care in my home, but I can come to you! I have experience helping older dogs, active, large dogs, giving dogs and cats medication, trimming claws, and going on runs or walks.

About: I’ve pet sat for friends and family for pretty much my whole life! I have multiple pets of my own (cats and dogs), and they mean everything to me. I always make sure my babies are healthy and well cared for, and I will do the same for yours! I like to be active and play with animals, but I also love just chilling and spending time with them as well. I usually work 6-8 hour shifts at my full time job, which leaves me plenty of time to spend with your pets! I’m available most mornings/afternoons as well as every Saturday -Monday! I am very respectful of others homes, and every home is different. Let me know what works best for you and your pets, and I will always accommodate based on your preferences!

About: When I have been a sitter in the past I was in charge of admitting medication few times a day. Feed dogs separates if they had special feedings. I also did overnight stays up to 5 days. I also walked the dogs a couple times a day. I also have watched up to four dogs at a time. I currently very open at this point in time. My availability will be everyday from 10am on to10 p.m. and every weekend I am also available, but my hours are more flexible. A family-friendly pet environment. We also have fur babies here to keep company. We also have four kids for extra love and attention and outside play. We do not have a fenced yard and I also live by a busy one-way

“Maddy was really great at communicating and giving updates. She was very easy to work with and was great with Emma. This was our first time using rover and we were a little nervous but Maddy made it very easy and comfortable for us and we were able to have a great time with zero worries!”

Bri C.

“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. She took great care of our pets and helped them feel comfortable. She also left the house very clean, even doing more than we would’ve expected. She was also incredibly flexible when our travel plans changed due to flight issues. We’d definitely recommend her and would love to work with her again!”

Sherlin P.

“Heather did a great job giving us updates and keeping all of our animals happy and safe. Even had to deal with a local power outage with no issues. Definitely will book again!”

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, with experience ranging from dogs, cats, and rabbits to ferrets, birds, hamsters, and all kinds of farm animals. I also grew up maintaining a 400-gallon fish tank that included a wide variety of fish and even small freshwater sharks, giving me a strong understanding of aquatic care. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have raised two very active 100+ lb German Shepherd/Lab mixes since they were puppies, so I am confident handling large, high-energy dogs. Despite my size, I am fully capable of managing and guiding strong animals safely and effectively. I am happy to assist with all aspects of pet care, including long walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I am also comfortable caring for pets of all ages and administering medications when needed (with prior instructions). Additionally, I have long-term experience(10+ years) caring for a Bengal cat with Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD), which has given me hands-on experience with specialized care and medication routines. I am currently a student at Central Michigan University and work part-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available for both daytime visits and overnight stays in your home. I strongly believe pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, and I strive to maintain their routine while providing consistent care and companionship. I am always happy to provide extra references or additional information to help you feel confident and comfortable. I also maintain a respectful, non-judgmental approach to every home and will always leave your space in the same condition as when I arrived. So never be afraid of how your space might look!

About: I have been caring for a wide variety of animals my whole life, from cats to horses to dogs of all sizes! Large breeds are my specialty, as I have grown up around Great Danes, Saint Bernards, and Newfoundlands my entire life, and feel very comfortable handling them. I have cared for many senior and small breed dogs as well, so your pets will receive the upmost care no matter the age or size! I love working with as many unique personalities and animals as I possibly can, and will work tirelessly to make sure they receive the care they need. My schedule is often very open, especially during the summer when classes are out, so I will communicate well to work around YOUR schedule! I will do what it takes to get your pets the care they need when they need it. Safety is priority number one when it comes to caring for pets, for both me and the animals. I am sure to follow whatever instructions are given to me to the strictest degree so you don't have to worry about your pets safety while you're away. When going for walks I always maintain firm a firm hold on the leash, even with bigger dogs. I have been walking with large breeds such as Saint Bernards and Great Danes for over a decade, so I feel very comfortable remaining in control. I always carry pepper spray with me as well, just as an absolute last resort in the very rare chance that anything would happen.

About: I have had dogs/cats since a child. Anyone who knows me will tell you I am a a sucker for animals lol. I treat all pets as if they were my own. I currently go to school 2 days out of the week but they are night classes Monday and Tue at 6pm to 10:30. So availability is pretty open. Your pet will get some good snuggles 😂🤗 anywhere I go your pet will go with me (assuming they’re able to travel) I go for walks just about every morning.

About: ive worked with dogs of all ages and breeds since ive been young. i can not wait to sharw my love with your fur babies. working with animals has always been a dream of mine. working on going to school to be more involved with animals…i give all my time now to animals such a ferals and rescue kittens. your pet will be showered with love and be given potty breaks as need be. they will be taken on walks and played with regularly.

“Heather was a delight to meet. She was responsive, sent several pet photos, and left an update note. she took Bijou on a couple of walks and played with the kitties. The house was in good shape and the pets seemed happy when I returned. I would definitely ask Heather to watch my furry kids again.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I’ve been 14 years old. I’ve had experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I have a passion for animals and love to make them feel part of my family. I’m currently in respiratory school while working a part-time job, which has helped me develop strong responsibility and time-management skills. I’ve always loved animals and enjoy caring for them whenever I can. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I accept cats and dogs that are able to stay in the comfort of their own homes. I feel like as someone with animals the safest place an animals can feel is when they’re in the comfort of their own homes.
