About: I have always grown up with dogs. Our family had a senior dog who lived until almost 17 years old, so I have plenty of experience with older dogs! I also have a rescue from Detroit now who is my baby. I am a nurse! So, I work three days a week, but I don’t have designated days. So usually I would need at least a couple of days in advance. I do have my schedule for work booked out at least six weeks. So I can be very very flexible apart from the days that I do work. I will treat your pet the same way that I would treat mine! I will always have eyes on them and make sure that they are safe and happy to see you when you get home!

About: Hi there! I’m Chris, a lifelong dog lover with a passion for our four legged friends. Whether they need a quick stroll around the block or a longer adventure to burn off some energy, I’m here to make sure they get the exercise and care they deserve. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and know how important it is to keep them happy, healthy, and safe. Contact me for more details and we can get something started! Thanks to my work-from-home lifestyle, I have the flexibility to stop by at most times to ensure your dog or cat has the attention and care they need. I know how important it is to keep your pets happy and engaged, whether it's a refreshing walk or cozy company while you're away. I’ve always loved being around dogs and cats and take pride in making sure they feel safe, cared for, and, of course, loved! With my flexible schedule, I can easily accommodate your pet’s needs, whether it’s a midday walk or a bit of play time to keep the occupied during the day. When I am with your pet, they will be treated and seen as family. No matter their needs, I will work to ensure they are as happy and comfortable as possible.

“Highly recommend Samantha! She is dependable and trustworthy, and always takes care of my dog like it’s her own. She works with me on my schedule and is flexible with any changes that arise.”


About: My petsitting career began when I was a tween, taking care of my close neighbors' pets as needed. Since then, I've expanded to various families around the community, often balancing many beloved pups at a time. In my own home, I've always known a family supplemented by a dog's love. So as a pet sitter, I live by the golden rule: treat other dogs as you'd treat your own. This means plenty of puppy-voice talking, seemingly nonstop petting, and exciting adventures around the area. I can guarantee that any pet under my care will receive the love they deserve while getting the playtime they need. I work full time, but am typically available Mondays, Fridays, and weekends. If needed, I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs! I treat all dogs and pets as if they are my own. This means giving them the love and attention they deserve whenever and however they need it!

“My dog Huxley absolutely loves when Hannah comes over! She is reliable and always on time. I feel comfortable leaving Huxley with her, knowing he will be well cared for.”



“Andrea is just the best! I recently moved to town and started a new job where I needed to be in the office, she instantly was able to help me out and has been flexible with my scheduling needs. This is the first time I've left my pup alone during the day and Andrea's consistency, love for Ivy, and thorough reports and pictures gives me such peace. I know my girl is in good hands with Andrea!”



About: I got started dog-sitting as a teenager, because every family I baby-sat for had dogs as well. I've spent years walking and taking care of dogs, though I've never had one of my own. I love dogs, but through my adult life so far, I haven't lived in an apartment complex that allowed them. I am up for long walks and playtime. I also just moved to the Detroit-area from Kalamazoo, and walking dogs seems like a great way to get to know the neighborhoods.
