About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was young. I’m a huge animal lover with a passion for caring for all fur babies big and small. I currently work part time with a wide range of availability. Since my schedule is flexible I am able to board/walk/care for animals morning through evening with a wide range in between I own the sweetest senior boy named Rocco who loves sharing space and making friends wherever we go. I’m leash reactive trained and have many trials and safe neighborhood spaces to walk near me.

About: We’ve had different kinds of pets since I was young. I loved having them as a part of my life! I’ve got you and yours covered! I currently have a god that I let out mid-day three days a week. I stop by in between shifts at work and take her for a walk, have some play time and make sure she gets a snack! I care for them like my own pets! A nice greeting at the door, a walk and potty, some plays and a snack/treat if that’s the routine. I understand many pets have different routines and I will always follow that!

About: I love animals so much I don’t eat them. I’ve cared for dogs & cats my whole life and nothing brings me more joy in the world. I work full time and have a part time job on the side. However, I am free outside of business hours on most days besides Wednesday & Thursdays. I build trust with furry friends on their terms! Always give them lots of love and attention they need and are ready for. They are perfect little angels but sometimes they can be shy and that’s okay!!

About: Hi there! I grew up with a dog by my side, and my family had a beloved pup until last year. My kids have been begging for another, but for now, we’ve decided to channel our love for animals into caring for yours! My kids and I are here to provide plenty of attention, belly rubs, and care while you’re away. Think of us as the fun aunt and uncle (and cousins!) for your pets—plenty of playtime, snuggles, and treats (with your permission, of course!). We can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members!

Our neighborhood is also great for walks, offering plenty of safe and scenic routes. If your pet is crate-trained, I’m happy to accommodate that, but we also have the flexibility to let them roam freely in our home. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so whether they’re staying with us or I’m caring for them in your home, I’ll follow your routines and rules to make them feel as comfortable as possible.

“Hannah, Hannah gave our pup lots of love and attention. She arrived just a little early and stayed a little late. She is a lovely and responsible person; and great with dogs!!”


“Hannah took great care of my pets while I was on two week vacation. My cat, Alfie is a rescue and very shy always hides from strangers, but Hannah was so gentle that Alfie comes out when she is taking care of him. Hannah is very sweet and responsive. I definitely recommend her!!”


“Jennifer was great with our Golden retriever, Moon! He immediately liked her on a meet and greet. On the day Jennifer was watching him at our house she sent lots of photos of what Moon was doing and wrote a detailed message on how the visit went. It was nice to see Moon enjoying himself and engaged in activities. We will absolutely use Jennifer again!”


About: My family has owned dogs my whole life, and I love dogs and cats of all kinds! I’m a college senior and student teaching in Northville this year, so I will be in the area pretty frequently (summer, breaks from school, and some weekends). If you’re looking for someone who is experienced and comfortable with pets and will care for them as much as you do, I’m your girl! 😊 For the rest of the summer I will be available during the week days and nights, and some weekends. During the school year, I will be coming home every Thursday evening to teach on Fridays, so Thursday and Friday afternoons/evenings I can drop in. I am a football fan, so I’ll go back up to school for the weekends in the fall, but as the school year progresses I will be more available to stay in the Northville area for the weekend if needed. I can care for your pets like you never left! I’ll feed, walk, and play with them— whatever you need for them. With my high energy dog at home, I’m used to a lot of walking and fetch-playing :)

“Morgan stopped by several times daily to take care of our cat during our recent short trip. Our cat loved Morgan and was so excited to see her each time she’s come over. She sent us messages and pictures consistently and was very compassionate and caring with our cat. She was flexible when she thought it’d be good for our cat if she showed up earlier than what we had initially asked. I had peace of mind each time knowing that she’ll be there for our pet. She was easy to talk to, made me feel comfortable in messaging and asking questions. Looking forward to working with Morgan again soon.”


About: I’ve personally had dogs as pets for the past 20 years, and I grew up caring for cats. I love caring for any & all animals! I’m currently a middle school teacher, so my evenings and weekends are wide open! I am available on any weekday after 3:30, and all day on the weekends. I promise to go above and beyond caring for your pet as if it’s my own. Pets are treasures and should be treated as such!

Breeds I've taken care of: Tabbies, Domestic Shorthairs, Labs, Doodles, Golden Retriever, Shih Tzus, Terriers I have much open availability for the month of August! I am a teacher, so I have much flexibility in the summer months! Please reach out with any questions! I sadly can't offer boarding or overnight services as I have pets of my own, but I can do home visits, walks, check ins and more.

About: I have experience taking care of my sister’s cat, fostering cats, and walking my friend’s dogs. I am high energy, love long walks, and understand the responsibility behind ensuring the safety and well being of your fur baby! I work full time 9-5pm in Manchester but am available to walk pups/check in on pups before and after work! I am also reliably free on weekends. I am comfortable walking small-medium-sizes dogs. I always make sure to keep a close eye on pups and will communicate proactively if there are any questions or concerns regarding your pet.

“From pictures Manal sent to me, I could tell both of my cats were happy when I was traveling. She has perfectly followed the instructions I asked. I am very grateful that I have found her. Highly recommended. Will ask her to take care of my cats again when I have to travel :) :) :)”
