House Sitting in Mill Mine Junction

“Isabella was timely and responsive. She took great care of our cat and our home. We felt very comfortable leaving Jaco in her care.”

“I had to cancel my trip due to illness, but because I was unable to properly care for the dogs while ill Suz took "the girls" for a nice long walk. She also sent some great photos...better than ones I take:-) Highly recommended. I will be booking her again.”

About: We’ve had two pets and have cared for both puppies and elderly dogs. We’ve done dog sitting for lots of friends over the years and even done a little bit of fostering to help get dogs ready for their forever homes. ❤️ Both my husband and I work full time but on a school schedule so summers are free. Both of our schedules have some flexibility during the day to allow for potty breaks, etc. I love to take dogs for walks, a snowshoe, or skiing. We have 5 acres on our property, which also allows for some good exploring and throwing balls with the chuck it.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in the home all my life. I have experience treating a sick kitten with daily injections. I foster cats with K-Snag but I have plenty of time and love to share. I work but I’m never gone for too long. A few days a week I work nights and am not available but I would love to care for your fur baby on evenings I don’t work. I’m always available before 1 pm. I also volunteer at a cat rescue up in Calumet for a few hours on Sundays. I have no pets of my own at the moment so I have plenty of space and love to give. I live in a spacious studio apartment alone.

“Ashley exceeded our expectations!! After a week away, we came home to a clean house and very happy animals. Ashley was great with communication and we were able to relax much better on vacation knowing our fur babies were in great hands!”

“Lexi is a kind, responsible dogsitter. She took wonderful care of my dog and house. She texted me daily updates, and she followed instructions with great care. Most importantly, my dog Blueberry loves her! I recommend her highly.”

Nancy L.

“Our dogs warmed up to her almost instantly, our home was left in perfect order and she communicated in a timely fashion. We will ask her to dogsit in the future and would recommend her to anyone.”

About: My Family and I have had dogs in the family for years and I have always had a big role in taking care of them from baths to playtime and food. In 2020 we then started raising puppies. I have helped from the birthing to medication and playtime, overcoming new obstacles and fears, and potty training. I have dog sat a bit and have done well making sure they got exercise, food, and medication. I do not have much experience with watching cats but love playing with my Aunt's who breeds and raises kittens. I currently go to college classes but have a fairly flexible schedule. In the summer aside from a few trips I have nothing going on! I feed them twice a day unless specified, give baths once every other week and as needed. If they don't seem to be enjoying an activity changing it or making the situation better. Trust and respect are very important. The wishes of the owners or parents will be followed and hope to give your pet the best care while you are away

About: Growing up I was expected to care for children and dogs simultaneously. Taking care of them doesn’t feel like a job, makes me feel like I’m back home! I’m currently enrolled as a student at Michigan Tech and I’m also on the soccer team here. During the week, I’m almost always available anytime after 6:30pm. Additionally, I usually have most weekends off! I always take time to care for my dogs at home by letting them out multiple times a day, giving them as many pets and cuddles as possible, keeping up with their medications and food, etc. Our dogs are trained to stay in the yard at home so please specify if you prefer your dog on a leash:)

About: I have had dogs of all ages. I am a college student looking for some extra cash while in houghton. I love all animals and can check in on your dog and take them for a walk. Currently at Michigan tech full time but I want to take care of some dogs after class or on the weekend. I am available all day on weekends. I will not take pets into my home because I am living in a dorm but I will make visits to your home for drop in visits and walks.

“Karina was amazing with my pups!! I have a fun crew with a young rescue and an old little man and she did great with all three :) I would recommend her for anyone!!”
