About: Almost all of my experience as a dog owner and sitter is with dogs that have come from shelters or other adopted situations. I have owned “retired” greyhounds that were severely traumatized, I have cared for small dogs with unknown, but clearly extremely difficult, past traumas, and I have stayed and bonded with boxers and pit bulls who are slow to trust but then become bed-hogging cuddlers! Recently, I had my first experience helping train a puppy! I spent five months with a family and their sweet cavipoo house training and leash training. I teach from home and so I am always home! Well, except for the occasional errand, appointment, etc. So, I would love the extra company and the excuse to get out of the house and get some exercise! I live in an apartment building so I do not have a fenced yard. However, I live on Lafayette Park where I walk daily. It is incredibly safe and I have gotten to know many of the pet parents in the building and the neighborhood. I have two five month old kittens that I adopted from a foster home two months ago where they lived with a dog. I am hoping to keep them exposed to other animals so that when I have a larger place, I will be able to expand my family of pets.

About: I have 5 pets at home including two dogs, two cats, and a guinea pig. I have grown up always having a dog so I can ensure a good pet lover. I'm currently a pet loving college student who is off for the summer, loves to run, and has a lot of free time and would love to spend time with animals. I have five fur babies at home who love attention. I will gladly give anyones pet just as much if not more of my never ending love and attention. I'm also very experienced in animal behavior so I know when a dog or a cat is stressed or happy.

About: Hello! My name is Avery ..... I have had dogs all throughout my life and plan to keep it that way! As a kid I grew up with with two beagles, a chocolate lab, a pit bull, and most recently a rescue shar pei/ lab mix. I love seeing every animals personality shine through and spoiling them with love and attention. Each one of my dogs has loved the outdoors (almost as much as me) and had lives full of adventure and exercise. I have also lived with cats and love them (through my previous roommate). I love animals of all breeds and sizes and would love the chance to meet yours! I am a current student so my schedule is semi flexible at the moment. Currently unavailable/working Tuesday evenings (although i pick up other shifts when im able). I try my best to keep my calendar updated to reflect my availability, please reach out if you have any questions! I am super active and would love to spend time outside walking with your pet if you' like and the weather allows! If not we can spend time in-doors playing.

Joe was great! I booked him to walk Graé several times while I flew to Detroit for an interview. Unfortunately, Graé suffered a dog attack the day before I was set to leave so that added a little more burden on Joe than anticipated. Joe walked, fed and administered Graé's meds in the evening and the morning. To make sure they got along Joe stopped by my place the night before for a meet and greet with my pup. While gone, Joes sent photos and updates to his time with him; I great help! I will definitely be using joe again if the need arises and he's available.

About: Hi, I'm Ashton! I grew up with both cats and dogs and truly love both, as well any other furry/scaly/feathery animal you might have. I was also a nanny for about 8 years and in addition to caring for the children and the home, I took care of the pets of each family I worked for. I have experience with puppies and kittens to older, slower animals and always cater my care to a pet's unique needs and personality. I'm more than happy and able to assist with any medication administration, training, and exercising of high-energy dogs. As someone with a million photos of my cats and dog, I will also make sure you get the cutest shots of them living their best lives while you are away. Over the years of experience with child, home, and pet care, I have proved myself to be reliable and flexible and hope to gain your pets' and your trust. I look forward to meeting you! I have a flexible schedule and can be available any day of the week for drop-ins, walks, and overnights. Whether it's early mornings or late nights, I can be your reliable source for pet care! I never rush an animal to be comfortable with me but will gladly give them the love and attention they need when they're ready! I always make sure to listen closely to any guidance given to me by pet owners to make every visit go smoothly.

About: Hiya! I’m John, a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. From my loyal Black Lab Doc, playful Mini Aussie Sakura, and regal Siberian cat Louis, to my tiny but demanding pea puffers, I’ve built a life surrounded by animals, learning how to meet their needs with patience, compassion, and respect. I’ve helped care for animals with a range of personalities and needs, from high-energy pups to sensitive or reactive pets who need a little extra space and understanding. I’m confident with medication management, basic training, and making even the shyest pets feel safe and seen. I bring the same sense of care and responsibility to pet sitting that I carried in my service as a U.S. Navy Veteran, and now as a Pre-Med Biology student. When I’m not studying or volunteering with the Belle Isle Conservancy, I’m often biking around Detroit or spending time with animals. They’re a grounding and joyful part of my life. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority. Whether they need a cuddle buddy, a calm presence, or a structured routine while you’re away, I’m here to treat them like family. My schedule is generally open and flexible, and I do my best to accommodate the unique needs of each pet and their family. While I occasionally travel, I only accept bookings when I know I can fully commit to your pet’s care. When I’m with your animals, they have my full attention, I stick to their routines, respect their comfort levels, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for every step of the way. When I enter someone’s home, I treat the space with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I always aim to leave things just as I found them, if not a little tidier. I also take time to scan the environment for anything that could pose a risk or distraction to your pet, making sure the space stays safe, calm, and just the way you left it. Your home and your pet’s routine are in good hands.

About: My home and job are in the Midtown area of Detroit but I'm willing to go the distance to make sure your animal is cared for. Can I love and spoil your pet like they are my own? I have a flexible schedule and would enjoy spending my extra time visiting with your pet. I am not a dog owner but play aunt to a timid staffie. I am an enthusiastic professional at fetch, belly rubs, and love going on long walks. I currently own two cats and am a fantastic snuggle buddy. I have a willingness to learn and understand what works best for your pet. I'd most like to understand the things that make your pet an individual and how we can become friends.

Liz W. loves animals. She cared for our boxer for two weeks during the dog flu pandemic a year and a half ago when we were advised not to board him. We had the trip planned prior to our adoption of Chance. Liz to the rescue!! She took great care of our home and Chance. Occasionally she will call to say hi and Chance goes nuts when he hears her voice.

When I’m with your animals, they have my full attention, I stick to their routines, respect their comfort levels, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for every step of the way. When I enter someone’s home, I treat the space with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I always aim to leave things just as I found them, if not a little tidier. I also take time to scan the environment for anything that could pose a risk or distraction to your pet, making sure the space stays safe, calm, and just the way you left it. Your home and your pet’s routine are in good hands.

Katie was super friendly and great with the pups, and was so patient even when my puppy gave her a hard time. She sends photos while she’s there and is great with communicating with you. She rocks!

Sasha is AMAZING with animals! She has two wonderful cats of her own and always shows my dog love, attention and care. Sasha is a thoughtful, patient, trustworthy and hard working person. She would make the best dog sitter!!

Raven is absolutely wonderful and sweet with my dog. Bolt is a bit stubborn and she was Incredibly patient and took the time to win him over. I will continue to book her every time I need help!

We were in a total bind, as our usual person had to cancel. Sarah stepped up when we needed her on short notice! She did a great job!

Ogee LOVES Naomi. She has been walking him for a couple months now and she and my Mom communicate well if their schedules need to change.
