House Sitting in Pontiac

“Faith watched our dog R2 for approximately 1 week. She took the time to become acclimated with his surroundings before we left. She also spent time getting him to trust her before we left. This was a huge relief as R2 does not warm up to people very easily. She spent much time throwing a ball(which is R2s favorite activity) but also took him for walks. She let me know (as scheduled with her in advance) just how he was doing. I would recommend Faith to care for your pet as i will be using her in the future also.”

About: Playing with cats and dogs since I was born. I've also owned fancy rats, a black emperor scorpion, a few small snakes, cats and dogs. I can friend most size or temperament. Nail care and baths can take some time for trust. I've done that work and then some on animal (and human patients). I'm here to learn be more responsive and responsible. Reading an animals body language seems fairly straightforward to me. Also willing to learn about farm animals. Skills? Work with puppies to seniors. Patience to explore new ground. Endurance to not stop till the dog wants. I don't run like I used to, another reason why I'm here. I enjoy the ability to give the dog a sense they've discovered something on that walk. I'm new to this service but not to customer service. I'd look forward to your criticism as much the praise. I'm working full time driving truck for a farm. Animal care can be before 4am or after 8pm. We're almost done with harvest. Bacon bacon Safe and respectful, same way I would in your home. I have a small apartment. It'd have to be a special client before I consider bringing your animal back to my place. Would you like for me to bring my beard trimmer to spruce up your pup? May I sit on your deck with a hot tea and throw tennis balls? I want your pet to welcome me just as you do. I'm new to this so I'll respond to the animal. A 12 year old dog still remembers what it's like to be a puppy for a few minutes a day.

“Taylor has been involved with domesticated animals since birth. She is compassionate, caring and responsible. Her love for animals shows with her smile and nurturing nature. She would excel working with pets and caring for them while their owner is away”

“Alayna was phenomenal! I needed a last minute sitter for an in-home appointment, but was having trouble finding somebody. I reached out to her and while we weren't able to schedule an entire day in home, she was extremely flexible and worked with me arrange three check-ins throughout the day. During each check-in, she played with Siri, fed him, and made sure he was well taking care of. Throughout the entire day, she provided me with multiple updates on how he was doing, including both pictures and video. I've had a number of Rover sitters over the past couple of months and I can wholeheartedly say that she's one of the best we've had watch our dog. I have absolutely no hesitation in using her services again.”

About: I was raised as a dog lover. We always had dogs in the house growing up and often took in stays to care for them. I am 100% against animal cruelty. I am a stay at home mom with much free time so my hours are flexible to care for you and the needs of your pup. I have a large front and backyard to roam in. My house dogs often go out to play or sun bath, however there is no fence.

“Fran has watched my 2 dogs for more than 3 years now whenever we travel. It’s a great comfort to know that they are being taken care of fed and showing love and affection each day that I’m gone she is my go to person anytime I need someone to care for my pups I don’t know too many people that are willing to get out of bed and make breakfast for my two dogs like I do but Fran did it and she did it with a smile and I can tell you right now that my dogs love having her with them and I know they get probably more spoiled than I spoil them but that’s OK”

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats, all of my life. I was a police officer and Sheriff for 32 years. I’ve dealt with most all animals. I love them all!! I’m currently a retired sheriff. I work part time for American Airlines about 20 hours per week in Bloomington, and working on a license to sell real estate as a part-time job in Livingston County. And I have been a police officer, since I was 18 years old. I am very trustworthy and honest. I’ve grown up around many types of animals and feel comfortable around them.

“Wonderful job taking care of my girls. What an absolute gem for me and the fur babies. Thanks alot Julie!!!!”

“Kelsey is so amazing with animals! Her gentle, kind and loving nature is exactly what you want when having someone look after your fur baby. My husband and I ask Kelsey to watch our two dogs often and she always goes a great job. She always keeps us posted and sends lots of pics. When she’s unavailable, it’s really a bummer because 1) our dogs love her and 2) there’s not many people we trust to take care of our dogs and be in our home. Next time you need someone, look no further!!”

About: I have had pets since I was a kid, and all through my life I have had some sort of animal. Big or small, I have tons of experience with all kinds. Now, I have 14 fur/feather/scale babies of my own and I am going to IVCC to getting my associates in science and majoring in wildlife bio. I am out of school for the summer and looking for anything really. Full time or part time. And any time of the night or day is fine with me. I have 14 pets, no dogs or cats, but I did have plenty of them growing up. Right now we have 6 birds, three different kinds, ((3 of them are house ducks)) a snake and the rest are smaller animals rabbit, piggy's, ferret etc. The rabbit is free roam, the birds and other animals all have their own free roam/fly time. Our house is on a set schedule as soon as the sun peeks through, lol, the ducks let us know, it's time to get the day started. Due to us having this many kiddos, we do plan long days ahead of time so everything is adjusted properly so everyone is taken care of. I am no stranger to getting dirty or dealing with any type of mess. Depending on the weather, we are outside as much as possible with a number of them and always trying to find new ways to keep their little minds engaged.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages walking them, administering medicine, dog sitting, and taking care of them daily. I love dogs and taking care of them I am a college student so I do have classes during the week but am available at multiple times throughout the day before, after, and in between classes. I have a very flexible schedule I have a friendly dog at home that I love and care for every day. I understand that your pets are your family and I will treat yours like it is my own.

“Clare is absolutely the best! Her care for animals and attention to detail is really what sets her apart. She takes a lot of effort in getting to know your animal and I’ve never been disappointed when trusting her with my dogs. Bottom line, she is very caring and great with animals. Would highly recommend Clare to anyone!”

“Mario did a really nice job caring for my little cattle dog Lucy while house sitting for me! He was communicative, kind, caring, and followed the instructions I left for my dog and my house. I’ve moved into this area recently and have not been able to find a reliable pet sitter to stay in my home when I am away for work- until now :) I will definitely reach out to Mario again as my top choice. Thank you again!”

“Natalie has always been ready to come over and take care of my cat Fizzy for when I’m out of town. She’s comfortable with being around animals and treats them like her own. Definitely someone who you can depend on.”

“Kay was exceptional when we hired her to watch our menagerie of animals. She is a responsible kid with a head on her shoulders! We'd ask hwr back for sure.”

“I’ve known raesheen for about 5 years and within this time she has picked up so many animals and given them the love they needed to be able to get into a forever home.”

I have one child that’s in Football so between practices I can take dogs for walks. Very flexible Artist. Have a 1 acre farm three children that love animals love to give them baths love to take them for a walking trips- and love love love

“Daniela was absolutely amazing! I needed a sitter extremely last minute and she stepped up and knocked it out of the park. She followed our instructions to the letter and was so patient and loving to our pup. She arrived promptly and had great communication and even sent pictures of our pup enjoying his walk. We will definitely be booking her again!”
