House Sitting in Pinckney

“Brian was absolutely amazing while we were away in Disney World! He took such great care of our 2 dogs and our home — sending updates, photos, and keeping everything spotless. It was such a relief knowing they were happy, safe, and in their own routine while we were gone. He even went above and beyond with overnighting my cell that I left behind - and we came home to calm, content pups. Couldn’t recommend him more — truly dependable, kind, and easy to communicate with. We’ll definitely be booking him again!”

“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: Hello! My name’s Martin, and I’m a Dexter local looking to spend some more time with animals while finishing up my degree at Eastern Michigan. I am also a barista at a cafe on the Northside!! I grew up with both dogs and cats, a chocolate lab named Khloe, a yorkie named Jack, and Gucci the cat. I love spending time with pets all sizes and ages, and would love to get to know you and yours. Please reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet. Looking forward to meeting you! I’m currently working part time as a barista in Ann Arbor MI. I am available in the early mornings and afternoons after 3/4! My favorite past times are going on long walks and writing! Being able to incorporate animals into my walks and spending quality time with them relaxing.

About: My whole life I have had dogs. When I was little a yellow lab, and now a very large charcoal lab, his name is Finn in my profile picture, he’s my best bud. Also added another furry friend to our mix, a red golden retriever, her name is Sadie. I also have four cats, one big orange tabby, a calico, and two black cats. My heart is full of love for animals and I would treat yours like my own. I dog sit for my grandparents as well, and friends as needed. I had the honor of helping train my grandmas dog and Finn as well. Simple things like learning to sit and stay but still important! I am currently home for the summer from college. I attend Ferris State and will return in the fall. So, I am just looking for a part time gig for the summer! Besides one vacation in June I am completely free for all potty breaks, walks, etc during the week. I have two dogs at home if a stay at my home is needed, I have leads available for use as well. We also have a fairly large crate used for our golden when she was a puppy, so your pet can be crated if necessary! My pups are very friendly and would love the extra company! I also have no problem staying at a clients home if that makes things easier! I have reliable transportation and have an SUV to take the pups to the park or anything like that! I often take my dogs with me to the store when I can and sometimes stop for a pup cup.

“Betsy took care of our dog (and house) for an entire week while we were away. Communicating with her was easy and straight forward and we received frequent pictures and updates every day. Our dog is on the older side of her life and has some particular needs .It was so good to know she was in great hands while we were away. Our house was also pristine when we returned. I will definitely ask Betsy to take care of our dog for us again in the future . Our best dog-sitting experience thus far! Thanks Betsy :)”

Valerie H.

“Erica is amazing! She cared for our three dogs while we were out of town and took fantastic care of them (including one with health issues). It was a huge relief knowing they were in such good hands!”

Susan C.

“Michelle was great with my Great Danes! She sent many pictures of them running around the yard, getting cozy, and just being their goofy selves. She managed meds, feeds, fun, and supported them through a stormy night. What I appreciated most is that Michelle is a great communicator! I would love to have her watch the boys again!”

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and have always loved being around them. Over the years, I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors care for their dogs—whether that meant daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or watching them in my own home. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and currently don’t have any pets of my own, so your dog will have my full attention. I treat every dog like they’re my own and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests, recurring walks, and longer stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and can adjust to your dog’s routine as needed. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and make sure dogs are always supervised while outside. I currently don’t have other pets in my home, so your dog will have a calm environment and my full attention. I also have reliable transportation and can safely transport dogs if needed. While I don’t keep a crate on hand, I’m happy to accommodate one if you provide it and can easily transport it when necessary.

“Milo was great! I will have him back again. He is good at daily communication and sending photos. When I got home my dog acted like I was never gone which is good because she has separation anxiety. I know she got a lot of love and attention from Milo.”

“Renata is amazing with pets! She stayed at our home for two days to care for our dog Koa, our kitty Tiny, and our bunny. She did a great job, sent pictures and updates, and we enjoyed our trip knowing our fur babies were safe and cared for:) I highly recommend her. Thanks so much Renata🙏🥰”

“Melanie was exactly what we and the kids needed. To lay back in a hotel room and relax while we went out to dinner with the family.”

Camilla M.

“Lyle did an awesome job with watching our two furbabies in our home for two weeks! He kept them on their routine and most importantly gave their meds on time. The latter is extremely important since one of our babies has seizures. We were so worried to leave since the last Rover experience didn't go so well and so we came home early. Thankfully all went great with Lyle. He gave daily updates and was very transparent. Will definitely use him again!!!”

About: With years of hands on experience caring for a variety of pets, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their unique needs. From my own furry family of 3 dogs, 4 cats, a bunny, and a horse, I’ve learned the importance of being attentive, patient, and nurturing. My studies in Animal Science at CSU have further equipped me with the knowledge to care for pets with expertise and compassion. Whether it's administering medication, providing enrichment activities, or simply offering companionship, I ensure that every pet under my care feels safe, loved, and well cared for. With my current class schedule, I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. On most days, my classes are spread out, leaving me with large blocks of free time in the late morning, early afternoon, and evening. This allows me to be available for multiple visits throughout the day to ensure your pets receive the attention and care they need. Whether it's morning feedings, midday walks, or evening check-ins, I can easily fit pet care into my routine without any conflict. In caring for pets at clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow a detailed routine based on your pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions. I ensure that their living space remains clean and safe, and I offer plenty of attention and enrichment to keep them happy. I also maintain open communication with you to update you on how your pet is doing and address any concerns promptly. My goal is to provide seamless, loving care that makes your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you're away.

About: I started house/pet-sitting earlier this year. I love it! My two extended-stay experiences included an apartment with two cats, and a home with two boxers. I received superior reviews from both clients. I am fit, can go on long walks, and leave the place cleaner than I found it! As a retiree, I have a lot of discretionary time. If in the Washtenaw County area, I may need to run some two-three-hour errands during any given day. That will all be cleared in advance. I am attentive to the pets, and often stop what I'm doing to give them attention. I am excited when they come into the room. And I am exceedingly patient and gentle.

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. Our house is pet friendly and gated where it is not. We will follow your feeding instructions exactly.
