“Rafael took great care of Lucy over a long weekend. He also cared for the home really well and was very responsible. He kept me in the know everyday and shared photos. He also took it upon himself to clean up right before the end of his stay. Overall a great experience for both Lucy and for us.”

Vik S.

“Clare took excellent care of our dog and home, maintained contact with us while we were away, and sent us photos during her stay.”

“Hannah was amazing watching Beanie. She responded timely, was able to meet with us before we left to meet Beanie, and sent us pictures and updates while we were gone. It was super nice to be able to enjoy our trip and not have to worry about whether or not Beanie was being taken care of. Hannah even washed the sheets and left the house just as it was. We would definitely use her again in the future!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember—they bring so much joy, love, and comfort into every home. My last dog, Roxi, was a rescue I found on Craigslist. When I brought her home, she was malnourished, under-socialized, and very skittish. With time, patience, and love, her true personality came out—goofy, affectionate, and completely lovable. Later in life, Roxi developed health issues stemming from the mistreatment she experienced before we met. She eventually needed a feeding tube, and her physical health declined. That experience deepened my appreciation for dogs and their pure, authentic nature. They don’t know how to be anything other than themselves—and that’s something I deeply admire. I’m an avid hiker and swimmer, and I love spending time outdoors with dogs. I’m also a quick learner and happy to accommodate special needs whenever possible. Whether it’s extra care, medication, or just a little extra patience, I’m here to help your dog feel safe, happy, and loved. I currently work full time but can accommodate lunch walks in my area and morning walks before work. I work remotely Monday, Wednesday, and Friday so those days work best for me. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own due to apartment restrictions, I’m always excited for the chance to care for others’ pets in their homes. I believe dogs thrive when they feel safe, respected, and cared for, so I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment that matches their routine as closely as possible. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d give my own. I follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, walks, or just giving your dog extra snuggles or space when needed. I’m happy to accommodate special needs and take the time to earn your pet’s trust through gentle, patient care. Building a bond with your dog and giving you peace of mind while you’re away is my priority.

“Josie was amazing! I will definitely be using her over and over again. My dogs got to stay in the comfort of their own home with someone who genuinely cared for them. It was a huge relief for me as well being away for so long; I got pics and videos throughout the whole stay. It was just what my dog mama heart needed while being away.”

Maggie M.

“Betsy is truly fantastic, attentive and super with updates and photos. You can tell she genuinely enjoys her time spent with your pets, her energy and communication is fantastic. She stayed over a weekend with my two lovelies and they were so happy when I returned home. Will absolutely be using Betsy in the future for my pet and house sitting needs.”

“Milo is the first pet sitter we’ve had stay the weekend at our home to watch our 2 dogs and cat. We have an elderly dog with doggie dementia, a Staffy, and a 3-legged cat, so they can be a handful, but they all just loved Milo! Our Staffy warmed up to him right away, which isn’t always the case, in fact our Staffy sat in his lap and gave him kisses within minutes of meeting. We found our elderly dog was calm with him, which is unusual. The way our pets reacted to meeting Milo greatly diminished our anxiety of leaving them for the first time. Milo didn’t hesitate to ask questions and kept us up to date on our pets’ status. Upon return, our animals seemed calm, happy and healthy. We will definitely ask Milo to sit again when we go out of town. Milo has a natural gift with animals and the animals really connect to his energy. 10/10!”

“Brian is great! He asked a lot of questions during our meet and greet to get an idea of my dogs needs. He’s really good with my senior dog who needs frequent trips outside. I definitely recommend him!”

Janni F.

“Karla exceeded my expectations and took the absolute best care of my dog while I was away. She was reliable, considerate and incredibly professional. I can’t recommend her more highly and look forward to booking her services again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to provide the best care and nurturing environment for their fur babies. 🤗 I currently work part time as a server 4 days a week. From 8am-2pm. So I’ll be available most afternoons and nights. I love to walk and be out in nature, so I feel this is a perfect opportunity for me and your fur babies. At your home I will do what you deem necessary for care of your fur baby…. And of course give them as much love and attention as they need.

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have cared for pets for over 20 years. I’ve had dogs since I was 20 years old and also worked in a veterinary clinic while I was in college, where I gained hands-on experience in animal care and behavior. I currently volunteer with the Humane Society, where I help care for animals in need. I also enjoy spending time with my friends’ and family’s pets and treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or keeping your pet company, I’m dedicated to providing loving, reliable care. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and can provide care when it’s needed — whether that’s daily visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, my goal is always the same: to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. In My Home: I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with lots of space to play, relax, and feel at home. I follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible — including feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest. I limit the number of pets I care for at once to ensure each one gets plenty of individual attention. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away. In Your Home: I respect your space and care for your pet just as you would. I stick to their regular routines, give them lots of love and attention, and keep everything clean and tidy. I can also water plants, bring in mail, or do light home tasks if requested. Most importantly, I make sure your pet stays calm, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment. I understand that every pet is different, so I’m always happy to follow any special instructions or routines to keep them happy and healthy.

“Ashley did a wonderful job with Blaire and Lucy. They were happy and relaxed when I got home and I think my dog was sad to see her go! I would not hesitate to book Ashley again.”

“We left Erika for over a week with our challenging Great Dane. She did a great job of taking care of the dog and stayed in regular communication with us. We came home to a very happy dog, and a very clean house. Erika exceeded expectations across the board.”

About: I've cared for groups of up to six dogs plus cats at a time, with a variety of levels of training and in many different environments. Any situation, I'll make it work! I'm mostly taking classes online at the moment, so aside from the occasional part-time shift my time is free for pet-sitting! I am able to wake up early and stay up late to keep things running smoothly. Though at the moment I can't host any pets at my house, I have experience staying nights and traveling early to go and watch pets for friends and family. I like to stay close to any pets I watch and unless I'm taking them for a walk or need to go to work I'll sit with them as I work on online classes.

“Jackson did a wonderful job caring for my two active, young dogs and my house. He was communicative, reliable, flexible, and warmly engaged with the dogs, and all seemed well with the animals and house when I came home. I would happily have Jackson dog-sit again.”

About: We are truly animal lovers! Our yard is full of bird feeders and we always stop to pet a dog. Our backyard is fenced and secure. We recently lost both of our fur babies, after the best 16 years of their life. We are not ready for another dog just yet, but we miss a fuzzy cuddle and wet nose. We have owned and cared for animals all of our lives. We have nursed sick animals and done a ton of training. We enjoy walking around our neighborhood and your baby will join us if possible. Bring whatever favorite things that will make the stay more comfortable. Rest assured, they will be well cared for and surrounded by love. Sarah works from home so there will never be a time when they are alone for more than a quick errand. We probably love dogs more than people. We excited to meet you! Rich owns a business and is flexible when needed. Sarah works from home. If we have a pet here, we will absolutely be home for their care. Our house is pet friendly. They are welcome on the furniture. We have baby gates to block stairs. We will follow your instructions on feeding. If you want pictures I will be happy to provide them. I work from home. I also have family nearby in the case that I need to be away. Richard owns his business and is flexible. We have a fully fenced yard and plenty of places to walk.

About: I have a bachelors degree in Animal Science with a concentration in Animal Biology and Pre-vet. I also have my doctorate in veterinary medicine. I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, goats, and chickens. I'm more than comfortable giving medication to pets, as I have done this as part of my job title. I have a dog and two cats. My dog is a 8 year old black lab and loves other dogs, cats, and people; she is very nice and loves to play. I take my dog for daily walks so I wouldn't have a problem walking your dog daily. My yard is also fenced in and a great place to play. I am currently working as a relief veterinarian in Livonia on Mondays and Wednesdays from 8am-5pm. Tuesdays and Thursdays I provide mobile veterinary care, usually from 8am-4pm. However, my availability does change occasionally. I have a fenced in yard and a dog to keep your visiting dog company. I do require visiting pets to be crated at night or any time I may need to leave the home for a short period of time to ensure the safety of your pet while unattended as well as my own animals.
