Dog Walking New Hudson

“Emi-Lu is definitely the person you want caring for your dog when you are gone. She is thorough, detailed, kind, and compassionate. She even texted me this morning to make sure she could find my key and to ask how long our dog likes to walk. Emi-Lu is the best sitter on Rover!!”

“Lyle did an AMAZING job others both of our dogs - 4 year old GSD and 8 year old Jack Russell Terrier/Beagle mix. He is prompt, kind, trustworthy and best of all VERY experienced. Our dogs were so well behaved long after he was with them. We have since booked 2 additional future occasions and plan to book more. Highly recommended sitter!”

About: I’ve always had a dog or cat in my home! Growing up we always had a Golden Retriever :) My most recent dogs were two senior Chihuahua sisters I adopted and one Olde English Bulldog. They have all crossed the rainbow bridge and though I’m not ready to get another pet, I miss having them in my life. One of my seniors had diabetes so I’m trained at administering insulin as well. I’m a stay at home mom of two little boys I share with their dad, though when I have dogs stay with me they stay with their father. For boarding, I live in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of other dogs and great sidewalks for strolls or power walks if needed. I enjoy going for daily long walks myself would love the company. For walks at your home, I never skimp on time outside or if weather doesn’t permit, extra fun and love inside.

“Erin is so good with Roamy, which shows in the amount of wiggles when Erin walks up to the house. She is experienced walking Roamy on the Gentle Leader and always shows her a good time.”

About: I am certified in Cat & Dog First Aid through the American Red Cross, including pet CPR and emergency response skills. I take pet safety seriously and am prepared to handle unexpected situations while providing loving, dependable care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. Whether it’s energetic puppies, senior dogs, playful cats, or shy pets that need extra patience, I provide attentive care, plenty of affection, and a safe environment. I’m responsible, dependable, and committed to following your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable and happy while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I don’t currently have another job, so I have a very flexible schedule. That means I’m available for daytime, evening, overnight, and last-minute bookings. I’ll make caring for your pet my priority, ensuring they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and the care they deserve while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. For overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pet has company throughout the night and sticks to their usual schedule. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I’ll ensure your pet gets the exercise, care, and affection they need while keeping you updated with photos and messages after each visit.

About: My experience and background with animals spans over the course 20 years. I've worked as a veterinary technician, fostered nearly 2 dozen puppies for rescue programs, and founded my own successful non-profit rescue & conservation program dedicated to primitive canids. I had the wonderful experience of helping one of these rare dogs whelp & raise a massive litter of 12. I've owned numerous breeds including a Beagle, working-line German Shepherd, working-line Anatolian Shepherd, and numerous primitives such Carolina Dogs, a coydog hybrid, & an imported Canaan Dog. I've trained dogs in sports such as schutzhund & nosework. I established my private dog training business in 2019- specializing in puppies and working dogs such as service & livestock guardian dogs. I've been blessed to own two wonderful cats! On our homestead we had an incredible indoor/outdoor boy that kept the rodents at bay. We also have a sweet, indoor-only kitty that lives the high life with raw food & endless cuddles! I'm thoroughly experienced in caring for senior dogs & cats, administering medications, first aid, & wound care. I've fed numerous specialized diets, including fully raw. I adore the puppy stage- including crate training, potty training, & socialization. I'm a strong advocate for socialization that bolsters confident neutrality. A puppy's endless curiosity is so fun to harness! I enjoy giving dogs a balance of outdoor exercise like hiking, as well as indoor mental enrichment like games and puzzles. A tired dog is a happy dog! I train dogs part time & homeschool my daughter- which lends me a great deal of flexibility in my schedule. I can often accommodate short notice requests. Your beloved pet's safety is critical to me. I'm extremely cautious with opening & closing doors so no animals can slip through a door, check the fit of a dog's collar to prevent potential backing out, & ensure there's nothing a pup or kitty could get into thats potentially dangerous. I have a very strong preference for using martingale collars on dogs for walks to mitigate that risk. I've personally endured the tragedy of my young dog slipping the door and being hit by a car while a sitter was taking care of him- so I assure you I take this very seriously. Building trust with both owners and their pets is pivotal! I'm committed to open communication and honesty. I allow pets to greet me on their terms and understand some animals need a more patient, gentle approach than others. I strive to create a positive, calm environment for your pets- and once I'm trusted by them, I will add the playfulness and affection they deserve!

“William and Sandra have been fantastic in caring for our pooch while we are at work. Super responsive, attentive and taking care of all the little extra details. Communication is clear and timely as well. Excellent care for your pet.”

About: Hello! My name is Maggie. I’m a 31 year old living in South Lyon, & a lover of all animals; the furry, the scaled, the smelly, the shy, the rambunctious, & every animal in between. I’ve had a dog in my home since I was born. My specialty is rabbits! Rabbits are such unique creatures, & I know how to give them the care & gentle love they need. I’ve had 5 cats, 4 dogs, & 1 rabbit in my lifetime, & now, due to my living situation, I am unable to have my own furry pal. I am hoping to get my fix of animal love through this service, while also helping those who need a little help with their busy work schedule or holiday travel plans. I promise to give your pets the same love I would give my own! If you have any questions or concerns feel free to send me a message. Thanks! As a stay at home mom, my schedule is flexible. My toddler would accompany me to drop ins, but he has strict boundaries with animals. If your pet loves kids - great! My kiddo loves animals! If your pet is hesitant to kids, no worries - my son knows he isn’t allowed to go near animals without permission. If you aren’t comfortable with my son being around, I am available Wed-Fri for solo pet care! My husband is home those days! I understand that all pets have different boundaries & quirks. If you have an escape artist cat living in your home, I will be sure to take extra care opening the doors. If your puppy is working on training, I am happy to help continue to with positive reinforcements. Upon meeting, will can go over all your pets’ needs… and their quirks! There will be no shortage of cuddles & playtime for those pets who need extra attention. And pets who take a little longer to build trust will soon find themselves a new friend to find comfort in!

About: I work as a pet sitter full time and have also been a veterinary assistant so I have experience with caring for pets, I am also able to give medications for pets who need it. I have experience with both cats and dogs but have more experience with cats! I have my own cat that I care for and am an insured pet sitter full time! I love caring for pets as if they are my own and go above and beyond to make their owners feel safe! I care for pets in your home by feeding, giving water, attention (play, cuddles, walk, depending on animals needs), cleaning litter or letting pets out, administering medication, and generally looking out for their well being.

About: I started dog sitting in 2022 for a coworker at the time, and since then I now have 9 different families I regularly sit for. I have experience with a range of dogs (from Toy Aussies to German Shepherds) as well as cats, which I grew up with, and some experience with fish and birds. I love all kinds of animals and getting to know their individual quirks and personalities! I am primarily doing online classes for school and working part-time. My working schedule can be flexible with advanced notice so I can spend the most time with your pet(s)! Whatever is best for you and your pet is what I provide! I’ve cared for very high-maintenance dogs that need multiple walks a day, special diets, etc., as well as very chill dogs that just come in and out as they please and eat whenever they want. I’m very flexible to provide whatever care the pet requires!

About: I have had a pet my whole life. From dogs to cats to ferrets to our farm animals. We live on two acres of fenced in yard, where your fur baby can enjoy their time outside. We have electric gates on our driveway, this ensures that your pet is safe while you are in our care. We offer a splash pad, doggy pools, sprinklers, soccer balls, tennis balls and bubbles for enrichment . This is a family affair, we care for your pet like family while you are away. I am a stay at home mom that homeschools her three kids. The kids love animals and would love to love on yours while you’re away. Pets are a great way for kids to learn responsibility, empathy and compassion. We have a 2 acre fenced in backyard in the country. Your dog can run and play, get their energy out and still be safe. We allow your pets on the furniture but if this is a no for you we will follow your rules as to not confuse them. We like to do a meet and greet to make sure our dog and your dog/ cat will be safe and not stressed while they visit us. We want to give your pet the best available care while you are away. Please include the following details about them in their bio. Things I would like to know: 1. I ask that you have all vaccinations up to date. 2. I’d like to have veterinarian information provided in case of an emergency. 3. Please provide a start and end time when inquiring about availability. 4. Is your dog crate trained and potty trained? 5. Any special needs your dog may have or other information you would like me to know. 6. Any allergies they or your family have. 7. Are they afraid or fearful of anything? 8. What command words do you use ? 9. Do they do well on car rides and walks? We do offer pets from more then one home if we have experience with the behavior of the dogs. We offer kennels, bedding, toys, food and water bowls so you don’t have to haul all that while trying to get things ready.

“Haley is AMAZING! She is great with my puppy, Winston, and is always so accommodating with my crazy schedule and last minute requests. She is my go to for watching my Winston (and he absolutely adores her!)”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm, and at one point we had 12 indoor dogs, from tiny Yorkies to Great Danes. They were never “just pets” to us; they were family, and that’s how I’ve always believed animals should be treated. I’ve also cared for cats and have experience dog sitting, so I’m comfortable looking after pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for yours the same way I’d care for my own. I take classes two days a week and spend the rest of my time at home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention and care. I'm also available most weekends, making it easy to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for by following their usual routine as closely as possible. I'll follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions provided by the owner and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I don't have any pets of my own at the moment, so I truly enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the love and companionship they deserve. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: Hi there! 👋 I’m Corrine, and I’ve spent the past 2 years caring for dogs and cats of all kinds — from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets.

When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me with furry friends, making sure they’re happy, safe, and loved. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to giving every pet the attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members! 🐾 I work full time but love to hang with pets in my free time! Happy to assist on week nights or weekends. Willing to travel a little bit as well. I care for pets as if they are my own. Give them their own food, bed and safety - whether it be free roaming or in a crate. Whatever makes them feel safe and loved.

About: I have pets from cats to pugs to rottweilers so I'm very comfortable working with both small and bigger dogs!

I have done drop in's with friends and families pets while they were on vacation. I've worked with pets that take time to trust and can tell when a dog is uncomfortable and needs space/a break. I also have experience working with special foods/medications. Littles, seniors, and everything in between are welcome I've worked with them all in my personal life! I'm a full time university student trying to put myself through college! I'm home for the summer and my schedule is extremely flexible! I'm willing to work holidays.

About: I love working with dogs, they bring happiness to my life! I have 2 dogs on my own that I walk every day. I pay very close attention to my dogs when I am walking them. I treat them as I would my own children. My house is dog safe because my own fur babies love to get into things they shouldn't, which has improved my techniques as an owner. As a dog loving house, there are treats and food available always. I am a big believer in fresh water daily for my pets. I have been around dogs since I was little, I love to care for them and know how read their body language. I started pet sitting for my family and friends. I have a fenced house where dogs can play safely. In my house dogs can be on the couch. I will spend time playing and caring for your dog or cat as well as walking with them.
