About: Hi there! I've always had a soft spot for animals. Growing up, there were always multiple cats in the house, and when I was 16, my family adopted our first dog, who quickly became part of the family. Over the past five years, I’ve regularly pet sat for friends and roommates, caring for both dogs and cats for everything from quick weekend trips to extended stays up to three weeks. I’m experienced with a variety of pet needs, including administering medications, brushing teeth, and providing gentle, specialized care tailored to each animal’s routine and personality. I also recently adopted an adult cat who is the absolute love of my life, so I fully understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry companion in someone else’s hands. I promise to treat your pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I work from home from 12 to 4 PM. This leaves me open for morning and evening visits and walks! I am also completely open on weekends. I’m totally used to quirky and detailed feeding routines, so whether your pet’s a grazer or needs a whole production at mealtime, I’ve got it covered. I’m happy to feed, brush, cuddle, and keep them company. For dogs, I’ll make sure they get potty breaks, walks, some fetch if they’re up for it, or just a buddy to hang with so they don’t feel lonely. Every pet’s different, and I’m always happy to go with their flow.

“Ashton took care of our 2 cats for a whole week and we couldnt be happier with how it went! She was super friendly and flexible, and it was clear that our cats loved her! She took such fun pictures and made our cats feel so comfortable. Definitely will be re-booking!”


“Katie was very accommodating, responsive, and helped to relieve my anxieties about leaving my cat for the first time in a very long time. I highly recommend Katie!”

“JJ took great care of our cat. This was my first experience with Rover and she made it very pleasant and worry free. My cat seemed to adore her as well and we really appreciated all the photos we got. We will definitely be using her again for our next trip.”



“Joseph was extremely accommodating and helpful while we were abroad for a week and a half. He sent pictures, ran by the house to do me a favor, and made sure the cats were well taken care of. I definitely recommend.”



“Jeannette was a great cat sitter! She looked after my two boys when I was out of the country. She gave them extra treats and sent me really lovely photos. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


About: I've been around dogs my whole life, my parents raised seeing eye dogs, and I helped with training and daily care from a young age. In my teens, I helped my mom run a small dog-boarding business out of our home, so I'm used to dogs with all kinds of temperaments and routines. Over the years, I've often been the go-to friend for dogs that need a little extra patience or understanding, whether that's a shy senior or a high-energy handful. I recently lost my own pup, and while l'm not ready for another full-time, I miss having a dog around and love being able to offer that care and attention to someone else's. I'm currently working on fixing up my very old duplex so I'm home, tinkering around most of the time, and my schedule is flexible. If you're worried about your pet being in a construction zone, not to worry! The living area is safe and segmented from anything that might be hazardous yet intriguing to your pet. I have a partially fenced yard, perfect for supervised play. Living in midtown means that there's plenty of interesting things to smell along walks. I can crate your dog if needed, and you're welcome to bring their own if that makes them most comfortable. I have quite a few house plants in my space, so please let me know if your pup is prone to chewing on them and I will move them out of the way for their visit.

About: I am a first year medical student who loves to play and care for animals. I have been caring for all types of animals for the past 10 years, including but not limited to dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, hedgehogs, etc. I have personal experience caring and training my dog who was diagnosed with glaucoma which caused her to become blind in one eye. This means that I have to administer eye drops into her eye every night. I have trained her to go to her bed and sit patiently to allow me to input her eye drops peacefully in an exchange for a treat. In high school I also helped train puppies to become guide dogs for the blind. I am able to care for wild and rambunctious dogs to relaxed and care-free dogs. With these special skills and personal experiences, I will be able to ensure that your dog is cared for as if they are my own. I understand that dogs are a huge part of your family and will do my best to make sure they are treated with love. As a full time student, I have flexibility in my schedule to fit in pet care into my weekly routine. I like to implement breaks into my study schedule and what good way to rest than playing/caring for animals! While I am unable to board / care for animals in my own home, I will be able to go to the pets home and care for them there. I can do house visits to feed or care for them in the home or take them out for walks around your neighborhood.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was old enough for my parents and neighbors to trust me! Grew up with multiple of my both in the house and naturally my first job was dog walking and house sitting around the neighborhood. Have experience working with older pets, puppies / kittens, and large breeds. Currently, live in the Corktown neighborhood with my Australian Shepherd Mel. If you see us out on a walk, say hello! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible to accommodate your ideal walking and / or care schedule. My Australian Shepard Mel and I walk around Corktown daily and am always up for spending more time outside! For Dog Walking: I follow your lead on your dog's tendencies / preferences. I adhere to your preferred routes and instructions regarding leash etiquette, avoiding off-leash situations unless explicitly discussed and approved. If your dog enjoys canine company, I'm happy to bring my Aussie Mel along, who loves walking with friends! If your dog likes playing ball / frisbee, happy to discuss how we can accommodate that as well. For In-Home Pet Check-ins: I pay close attention to your pet's behavior and appetite, reporting any concerns to you immediately. I ensure fresh water is always available and clean up any messes promptly. I prioritize respecting your space, leaving it just as I found it.

About: I have raised 4 puppies of my own until healthy old age. From my Jack Russell, German shepherd, Australian cattle dog mix, and Golden shepherd mix. Each have very diverse dispositions and needs for exercise and diet. Hopefully we can work on a consistent plan for their care while you are away. My day typically starts at 7am and ends in the evening hours at 10pm. I welcome conversations and appointments throughout the day. Ask me for a regular schedule to ensure I handle all of your pets household needs. I like to keep a clear and hygienic environment to ensure that pets have a healthy, safe and stress free environment. Keeping things where they are is important to ensure they are not seeking something they need to stay happy.

About: I've helped care for family pets in the past, am an attentive cat mama of my own 2 year old cat, and have also previously provided animal care as a personal assistant in Metro Detroit. I've had practice and done a lot of researching to make sure I am a knowledgeable and resourceful caretaker. I work hybrid! When working from home, I can keep my eye on them. And I prepare very well when I know I'm going to be away for a few hours. I understand wanting to make sure animals are tended to, so even if I do have to step out, I time it and try to make sure I'm not gone too long. We will be indoors! If you want your cat to get fresh air outside (aside from being at an open screened window), I have a backpack with a window bubble on it specifically made for small animals, it also opens out into a small structure that'll let them play and stretch their legs a lot more while still not able to roam without supervision! I also have a little tote bag for an animal where they can poke their cute head out. I keep an eye on what they're interacting with to make sure it's nothing that'll harm them as well.

“Marissa is an amazing dog sitter. She made five drop-in visits for my 5-month-old puppy. Not only did she take care of him, but she also improved his training! He improved the "sit" command and was finally starting to lie down on command and recognize his "place" in the living room. Marissa is compassionate, patient and understanding. My dog loves her. I hope to book with her again very soon.”

They were proactive about asking questions and made sure they fully understood our pets' routines and quirks - I found that they noticed the little things, updated us regularly, and clearly treated our animals like their own. We came home to calm, happy (/ier!?) pets and a home that was at just as we left it! Noelle kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, which meant the world while we were away.
