Dog Sitting Pontiac

About: I aim to ensure that every dog in my care is taken care of to the fullest extent. Keeping your precious pet safe and loved is my duty. I know just how important dogs are in our lives, so ensuring they get the kind of treatment they get at home is essential. Loving dogs is something that comes second nature to me. Throughout my life, these pets have played a significant role. In my experience, I have watched/raised leader dogs for the blind, my dog, friends/family pets, and my girlfriend's dog often. I have 10+ years of experience working with this beautiful animal, both big and small. When taking on a new client, I'd like to schedule a meet and greet, whether online or in person; that way, we can ensure we're a good fit. That's very important to me, and also, getting able to talk will allow me to learn more about your pet and your care expectations; after all, who knows your pet more than the owner? Lastly, I love meeting new dogs, and they generally like to meet me, so I'd argue your pet, and I will get along incredibly. Being away from your best friend can be really difficult so I make it my goal to communicate as often as possible. I will make sure to give plenty of updates and pictures of all the fun your pup is having.

“Great communication, handled my pup with care, follows directions well. Made me feel very comfortable.”

“It was so comforting to know Mindy was here to take care and spend some time with Spunky. She is great!! Spunky is hard to care for being a diabetic blind deaf senior and Mindy did as great job. Thank you so much for caring for him. I will definitely call her again !!!”

About: Hi! I’m 30 years old and I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I grew up in a house full of dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—my mom always had rescues and mixed breeds, so I’m very comfortable with different temperaments and energy levels. Today, I have my own adopted 16 lb mixed-breed dog, and caring for him has only deepened my love and experience with dogs. I’m confident handling puppies and energetic dogs, and I truly enjoy walks, playtime, and giving them attention and care. For safety reasons, I prefer not to work with dogs that are overly aggressive or difficult to manage. My experience is focused entirely on dogs, so I’m not the best fit for cats or other types of pets. I’m available to foster small dogs in my apartment. I work from home and I’m able to walk him/her 3/4 times a day. I’m also available for drop-in visits between 6 AM–8 AM and anytime after 5 PM. I live in an apartment with a fenced area, which is great for safe outdoor time. I’m also happy to take your dog on walks outside around the neighborhood. I can feed, play with, and walk your dog, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away.

“I always know Marley is in good hands with Tatiana and Andrew! They are quick to respond, friendly and reliable! I appreciate them and the care they provide!”

About: Being in the military my schedule may fluctuate but don’t be afraid to ask if I can fit it in my schedule and I’ll be honest with you. Pet wise I’ve owned anything from a hermit crab to a Australian shepherd, German Shepherd, parrot, cats and rabbits. For all services I provide I ensure the best service with consistent updates on your pets well being. I love pets of all shapes and sizes and I can match the energy to any dog or cat. A happy pet is one who is stimulated and I promise you will not be disappointed. I’ve had many dogs of my own and currently live with a 2 year old husky, my roommates. If you have any questions, comments, or special requests feel free to reach out and I’ll reply swiftly.

“Thank you so much Gabriela for taking care of our kitties while we were away! Great with communication and loved seeing the updates/photos of our kitties!”

“We had the absolute pleasure of working with Arielle as our cat sitter, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. From start to finish, Arielle was not only professional but incredibly attentive and thoughtful. Her communication was stellar—each update felt like a warm check-in from a friend, complete with sweet photos and details that showed how well she got to know our cat’s personality. It’s clear Arielle treats her role with genuine care and heart. She took the time to understand our cat’s routines, quirks, and favorite toys, and her attention to those details made all the difference. When we came home, everything was spotless and our cats were calm, content, and clearly loved. That kind of peace of mind is priceless. If you’re looking for someone who brings both skill and kindness to the table, Arielle is a rare find. She didn’t just watch our cats—she cared. And that care showed in every thoughtful gesture.”

About: I grew up with dogs, and owned one for many years. I love their company and their attachment. I am caring and passionate and pay attention that the dog stays healthy meaning good and healthy diet, exercise, play and maintaining a good hygiene. I am newly retired and have plenty of available time. And I can accommodate my schedule to satisfy any required routine, I am flexible too. With my experience I know how to take care of dogs. Safety is one of the key factors for taking care of dogs, walking outside for a dog is important for its health, but we need to make sure it is safe, keeping the dog in leash, watching what it does eat bad things on the way.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little kid, and I haven’t taken care of a cat recently but I used to as well. I can feed, bathe, take out, give medicine, etc. I did just get a new job so I’m still working out my schedule but I’m completely available on weekends for sure as of right now! Anything else would need to be planned ahead. Every pet is different and some need more or different care than others. When it comes to giving them the environment they need, I’ll do anything to achieve it. Anything I can do to help make them comfortable, or make a pet parent comfortable, I’ll do.

“Third time using Ashley. She’s great, always keeps me updated and my cat loves her. Lucky to have found her on rover. Would highly recommend :)”
