“Jill was WONDERFUL!! So nice to be able to have the puppers/kitties stay at home and not be worried the entire time we were away. Jill sent lots of pictures and updates and even cleaned the cat litterbox which was unexpected, but certainly appreciated!! I would use Jill again in a heartbeat...the dogs miss her already!”

“Jennifer did a great job taking care of my cat. I was out of town for a few days and needed someone to check in on my cat while I was gone. Jennifer was quick with her communications, friendly, caring, and easy to work with. I'm very happy with the experience and would definitely ask her to look after my cat again!”

About: I have taken care of my childhood dog (now 18 years old) since I was a kid! I have watched friends’ and family’s pets for 5 years now. My father also has a puppy (who is a tri-pod!) who I helped him welcome home and train when he was adopted. My love for older dogs and pets with physical differences sets me apart as a dedicated, patient pet caregiver. I love long walks and am willing to go the extra mile for your pet! I have a very open daytime schedule, and can easily take pets on walks or stop by for check-ins during the daytime. My other job has odd hours, but it leaves the rest of my schedule flexible and open! I am a very active person and would love to run, walk, or play with your pet! For less active pets, I am happy to play indoors, snuggle, or hang out during visits. I am willing to learn any special routines or needs for your pet, as I believe every animal should be given a life that meets its own abilities and comfort.
“Ashley is a great cat-sitter. She listened to me carefully, took care of my cat’s needs and did a great job overall. My cat got friendly with her pretty quickly. Highly recommended!”

“Gabbie is great! My pup is pretty shy and going through some health concerns. Gabbie was attentive to what my dog needs, has been consistently on-time and has built up trust with her in the span of a week. Sadie seems really excited when Gabbie comes by and seems to enjoy their mid-day play sessions!”

About: I have cared for dogs my whole life - from my own to those of neighbors and family friends. I am able to care for young puppies to those of a more senior age. I work at a restaurant so have a somewhat flexible schedule. I can do drop ins, overnights, and walks. I would love to help your pet get the care they need! I care for each and every pet like they are my own. First and foremost I will prioritize their safety, and your wishes as the pet parent!
“Latasha looked after our kitty (Lazare) and house for a week in July. She was very professional and courteous. She took the time to write down instructions on our meet and greet. Lazare loved her! I appreciated her communication and photos and she also took good care of the house and plants. I wholeheartedly recommend Latasha.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life! I have 20+ years of experience growing up with and helping care for my own dogs from puppy to older age. My neighbors regularly trusted me to look after their pets while they were out of town. Now that I’m in med school across the country from my family pets, I’d love to channel all that extra pet-loving energy into giving your pets plenty of attention, affection, and fun! I'm currently working full-time, 9-5. I am available on weekday afternoons for care. On weekends, I am happy to pet-sit overnight. I have a car and am willing to travel <45 minutes. I live in a ~800 sq ft apartment, best-suited for smaller/medium pets. I am a 2 minute walk from Forest Park, where there's plenty of room for your pet to enjoy!

“Kyani is such the tentative, meticulous, and most exceptional communicator. I’ll definitely be booking again in advance. Grateful for her today.”


“Mae was extremely communicative and definitely went above and beyond when caring for my three kitties! They fed, played with, and made sure boxes were clean for my babies. My cats looked very happy in the photos they sent, which was much appreciated. I would definitely book again!”
“Niah was a great sitter! She was kind and enthusiastic at the our meet and greet. I knew my cats would be taken great care of and felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Also had some last minute travel changes and was easy to contact and flexible which was appreciated. Would work again with Niah!”

About: I've loved dogs and cats since a young age. As I've grown older, my responsibilities have included feeding, walking, playing and even cleaning up after of various breeds of dogs and cats. I am capable of providing medication and other special care for your pets. I believe pets are family and I will treat your animals as my family. I am a kind, caring individual who will go above and beyond for your furbaby. At this time, I have a full time job, Hence house-sitting for low maintenance animals is primarily what I can provide. I look forward to helping you out Unfortunately, my current living situation prevents me from accommodatimg more dogs or cats. Although, animals in aquariums are welcome and will be treated with love.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals, and caring for pets has become more than just my job it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve also cared for the pets of family members and friends. I currently work full-time as a Certified Veterinary Assistant, but I am available for pet care before and after work, as well as on select days off. My work experience allows me to provide knowledgeable and attentive care while maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because they’re most comfortable in a familiar environment with their normal routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions to ensure they receive personalized care. I’ll keep your home clean and secure, provide regular updates with photos, and make sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, and enrichment while you’re away.
About: My experience with animals comes from caring for pets throughout my life, including my own dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with the everyday responsibilities that come with pet care, such as feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I’ve also helped care for kittens from birth, which gave me hands-on experience with young animals and taught me the importance of patience, cleanliness, observation, and consistency. I understand that every pet is different, and I make an effort to learn each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs rather than treating every animal the same. Besides my taking care of my own pets my time is free I’m currently unemployed just a full time pet mom and wouldn’t mind taking care of other pets like my own I Have family that helps me take care of my pets at home if needed I also make sure my pets have everything they need when I leave according to how long I will be gone so no need to bring them with me
About: Since I was a little girl, I’ve known my calling was to work with animals and their guardians. It has never been just a hobby or an interest. It has been a lifelong calling that continues to shape who I am. Animals give me a deep sense of purpose. I believe they have the power to restore, rehabilitate, and teach us. Through their loyalty, resilience, trust, and unconditional love, they remind us of the qualities we should strive to reflect in our own lives. That belief is the foundation of everything I do. Throughout my life, I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds and personalities, from Great Danes to Pit Bull and Husky mixes. Today, I care for my special-needs English Mastiff, Kayser, and have worked with senior dogs, rescue dogs, and animals with unique behavioral and medical needs. Every experience has reinforced the importance of patience, consistency, compassion, and understanding that every animal is an individual with its own story. My commitment to animal welfare led me back to school to pursue professional dog training. I have earned certifications in animal welfare, pet CPR, and first aid, and my training philosophy is rooted in positive reinforcement, clear communication, and evidence-based practices. I believe educating guardians is just as important as training their dogs because lasting success comes from strengthening the relationship between both ends of the leash. My mission is to bridge the gap between animals and their guardians by fostering understanding, trust, and lifelong partnerships. While obedience is important, I believe true success is measured by behavioral wellness, emotional enrichment, and creating an environment where both people and their pets can thrive together. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine, so I’ve learned to build my schedule around it. I’m usually up early to handle morning feedings, walks, and check-ins. This allows me to be available from midmorning through early afternoon for appointments, training sessions, or visits. I also maintain flexibility during the evenings and weekends for clients who need additional support or have specific routines for their pets. Because animals are part of my daily life, providing exceptional care, whether for my own pets or someone else’s, comes naturally. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention I’d want in my own. I stick closely to the routines the pet is familiar with, whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or playtime, because consistency helps them feel secure. I take my time to build trust with each animal using gentle handling and positive reinforcement. I also pay close attention to their behavior and energy so I can recognize signs of stress or discomfort early. My goal is always to keep pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while giving families peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring, capable hands.

About: Hi, I'm Emma! By day, I’m a geologist working in brewing operations, but on the weekends, my focus is entirely on providing attentive care for your pets. My professional background means I am incredibly detail-oriented, reliable, and strictly adhere to schedules and routines. My love for animals goes beyond standard pet sitting. I have experience volunteering at The Creature Conservancy in Ann Arbor, MI, where I learned all about animal welfare, and I spent my years in grad school learning about human impacts on urban ecosystems. I also have a deep empathy for rescues and medical care. I personally rescued and successfully nursed my own street cat back to full health, so I am no stranger to administering specialized care, monitoring health cues, and giving extra patience to timid or sensitive animals. I also grew up with sweet rescue dogs- one miniature pinscher, and one Labrador/pitbull mix! Because I work a structured schedule during the week, my weekends are completely dedicated to making sure your pets are safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or gentle, attentive companionship, I'm here to treat them like my own! My schedule allows me to offer dedicated cat care primarily on weekends and Mondays, which are my most flexible days for extended visits and playtime. Additionally, I am available for some early morning/evening drop-ins during the week to make sure your cats are fed, scooped, and loved before the workday begins. Because I maintain a consistent routine, you can count on me to arrive reliably at the specific times your cat expects their meals or medication. Safety and trust are my top priorities when entering your home. As a cat owner who has managed medical recovery, I am hyper-vigilant about environmental safety, including double-checking that windows and doors are securely shut, and ensuring all hazardous items are well out of reach. I respect that cats are territorial, so I focus on keeping their environment calm, clean, and consistent. I will provide detailed daily updates and photos so you have total peace of mind that your home is secure and your cat is thriving.

“Kartik regularly provides our k9's with first class care at a very reasonable cost. Not only is he professional and well trusted but he is also pleasant and enjoyable to communicate with. We have every intention of continuing our ongoing Rover relationship with Kartik for the foreseeable future.”
