About: Hi! My name is Adaora, I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, and have taken care of my family’s now senior dog most of his life, so I’m well versed in all stages of dog life at this point. Currently I have one 2 year old dog who I raised from 3 months old (who is very high energy, so there will be plenty of walks and exercise while your pup is here.) I also have experience training dogs, so if you need some additional help with basic commands and dog walking, I’d be happy to assist! I am a student full time during the week, but have availability and a lot of energy throughout the weekends from sitting in class all day, which is where your dog comes in! I love spending my time with my dog and others dogs, and I spend as much time as I can outdoors in my backyard gardening or going on walks and hikes which is always more fun accompanied by a furry friend! I have a fenced in yard and 1 other doggo who has plenty of energy and toys laying around the house to help entertain your pup. A typical daycare day will usually look like hanging out outside for a bit, play time with me, snack time, at some point I’ll separate the doggos so they can all rest, then we’ll go for a walk and maybe snuggle up inside for a bit. If everyone is particularly energetic we’ll go back outside and play again. My goal here is to give your dog a fun, stress free place to be while you are at work or away for the day/weekend, because that’s always what I want for my dog when I’m gone.

About: I have taken care of many dogs, I also take care of my grandparents and little sister every week. I feed them and make sure there needs are fufil . I am very dependable and responsible! My week varies, I work 3 days a week, I attend school at Western Michigan. Some weeks I have a lot going on, others I’m free. I make sure every pet is comfortable and build trust with them. My job at home is to take care of our pets, walk them, feed, take them out. I am very comfortable with every pet and truly care for each pet.

20. Cat M.
About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was sixteen years old looking after our neighbor’s beloved poodle. All through college, I had repeat customers asking me to walk and look after their dogs. I have experience with large, energetic lab puppies and small, nervous terriers. I also have experience with guinea pigs (I had two for many years and have pet-sat for guinea pigs) and cats (I’ve looked after cats and have two of my own)! I have weekends free and will be working part-time, which means I’ll have plenty of time to look in on your furry friends! So long as I have enough time in advance, I’m willing to work with you to ensure that your loved one has all the care they need! Your pet’s safety and security is my top priority! I will not take dogs anywhere unleashed. Both of my cats are indoor cats, so if yours are the same, I know how to make sure your feline stays inside! Both of my cats are up to date on all vaccinations as well as Frontline flea/tick/worm prevention.
