House Sitting in Port Huron

“I can't recommend Mckenna enough. She took such wonderful care of my dog, Bear. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and professional, which gave me so much confidence leaving both my baby and my home in her care. She kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and lots of photos, which I truly appreciated. It meant the world to me and helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. It was clear that Bear was getting plenty of attention, love, and excellent care. Knowing he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for made it so much easier for us to enjoy our time away. Mckenna is genuinely one of the kindest people I've met, and her love for animals shines through in everything she does. She is such a sweet, genuine person, and I felt like I could trust her immediately. It's not always easy to leave your pet with someone else, but she made it effortless. I trusted her completely, and she exceeded all expectations. I am so grateful for the care she provided and would happily book with her again in the future. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve taken care of & shown all kinds & sizes of dogs since I was 8. Currently only have one dog, but he’s a big boy. I’ve showed Golden, Poms, GSD, husky and our current pet is a Berner/Pyrenees. Groomed all of them too. Also experienced with livestock, so I can handle anything! Grew up with horses, goats, cats and rabbits. Super excited to meet your baby! I am looking to fill some time, so I would be super excited to visit your pet! I’m also very flexible on scheduling as well. I will try to keep your pet to their normal schedule, so even if you are gone, they will not be too upset. I respect your property, and will clean up after the dog & myself to the best of my ability.

“This was our first time having Bailey watch Trooper, and it was his first time being at a doggie sitters home. Bailey was very calm and reassuring with us on our meet and greet. When dropping him off for his stay we went over his needs since he is older with meds, food and etc. She did awesome with him while he was there and he had a great time with meeting/socializing with other doggies all sizes and ages. Would love to have Troops stay with her again!!”

About: I’ve always had pets or sitted pets growing up and my love for animals has grown into my adulthood even more and I want to make it apart of my everyday life. I have experience with pet care from having my own pets over the years, pet sitting and volunteering. I have experience with all different sizes, breeds and ages of dogs and I also have plenty of experience with cats. I am available everyday day throughout all hours. I am able to tend to the pets at all times. So if you have an animal with high needs I can be there for them! I have several walking distance parks and trails. I do not have my own yard but I am able to take the pets for walks. I also have pets of my own that get along with other animals, so if your pet loves hanging out with other animals then my place is for you!

About: I’ve taken care of my family pats ever since I was young, always had dogs and cats, I love all of my pets and spending time with them, can’t wait to meet yours and all of their quirks!! I’m only busy one day a week right now, which is Sunday's. Obviously there are days that I’m busy with friends or family or babysitting, something along those lines :) I can’t bring any pets to my home, my pets are shy lol, but of course any special feeding requirements or any special requirements in general, I love to play, keeps me entertained to :)

About: I grew up with cats and dogs and am now the designated pet sitter for my family and friends. Care I have provided includes the following: Dog walking...and running if your pup is up for it! I know some great trails in the area I think your pup will enjoy as much as I do. LOTS of playtime! I'm happy to take your dog to the local dog park, but if they're not social with other pups or you prefer to keep them closer to home, I appreciate a good workout running around the backyard with them and throwing endless rounds of balls or frisbees. Potty breaks: as you'll see in the schedule section, I work remotely and am happy to stop in whenever to let your pets out, take them for a walk, run them around the yard, or fill a dinner bowl. Feeding: just let me know their meal schedule and treat allowance. I've cared for dogs with allergies before so no problem if your pet has a sensitive stomach. Medication Administration: from eye drops for kitties to wrapping pills in pieces of salami for finicky pups Litterbox cleaning Bathing: I sat for the most rambunctious and fluffiest white pup during the rainiest week of April eight years ago. Every bath time since has felt like a breeze! Cuddles: your pets will be well-loved while in my care! They'll receive lots of pets and smooches. If they prefer a more distant companion, just let me know and I'll give them their space. Please reach out with any questions or concerns! I understand it can be hard to trust the care of our furry family members to others. It's important to me to care for them the way you would yourself. I work remotely full-time and am available for in-house visits and walks throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate your family and pet's needs as necessary. At this time, no pets currently live in my home. I have a large unfenced backyard. When outdoors, your pet will always be leashed or unleashed per your instructions. I live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and near trails that are great for walks. In your home, I will operate around your pet's schedule and environment. I'll ask thorough questions before caring for your pet which will include knowing your preference regarding outdoor time, feeding, bathing, litterbox cleaning or poop scooping, and the location of leashes, treats, cleaning supplies, etc.

About: I’m excited to care for your pet! I love all animals and even wanted to become a veterinarian! I have a two Siamese cats who are good with dogs. I also have a two year old poodle named Tony. he LOVES to play with other dogs. We go to the Fort Gratiot dog park often! My family growing up raised golden retriever puppies, so I am comfortable with all energy levels! Personally, I am also trying to exercise more so I would love to take your dog for a short or long walk! Any other questions you have, feel free to ask! My pets keep me busy! I also have 9 chickens. I am happy to visit your fur baby anytime of the day! I’m happy to visit holidays and weekends too :). In my home, pets are allowed on furniture and on the bed. Food is given at scheduled times of the day - no free feeding so you would not have to worry about your pet eating other food. I am happy to house puppies and senior dogs. I can take them outside on a leash as I don’t have a fenced in yard. I have two acres on a dirt road in for gratiot.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I currently have 2 big dogs and 6 cats at my home. I’ve pet sat for friends and family and sometimes I come over just to see their fur babies. I love going on walks with dogs but also snuggling up on the couch with my babies. I currently have a 8am-4pm job but it’s with family so they are very flexible if I need to leave and come back during the day. I’m currently enrolled in college online perusing a degree in marketing as well. I’m a very gentle person and I have a lot of respect for animals space. I don’t like to rush or make them feel threatened by me. I often however, hit it off very well with pets and love to play with them! I have tons of acres at my home so my dogs like to run free or on a leash if needed.

About: I have taken care of family members', family friends', neighbors', houses, pets, and children since I have been in high school and I am now a 2023 graduate from Central Michigan University. I have taken care of senior pets, both cats and dogs, for several days at a time. I am comfortable with giving medication and tending to any other special needs your fur baby may have. I am also comfortable with taking care of several pets at once, as I regularly stay at a household with 6 pets in the home (4 dogs and 2 cats). I have a dog of my own and I strive to care for others' pets as they are my own. I am currently a nursing student at Oakland University. I am in the accelerated program and my schedule changes every 6-7 weeks. Until 4/16, I have 12 hour clinical days at Troy Corewell on Thursdays and Sundays and class 3 days a week ending at 2 PM on Mondays and Wednesdays, then 10:30 AM on Tuesdays in the Auburn Hills area. I am also available in the Macomb and St. Clair areas. I am completely comfortable with staying in the home with pets to keep them on their routines in a familar environment. I have stayed one night up to 2 weeks, so I am flexible with whatever you or your pets may need. My dog loves to play with other dogs, so I can introduce them if requested.

“Kailey was great with the girls and was able to accommodate us on very short notice. She went above and beyond when we really needed her. The girls loved her and remembered her from a prior visit”

About: I have had dogs for as long as I can remember. From giant breeds to small dogs, I love them all. I am familiar and can easily handle the strength and slobber of a big dog, while also maintaining the delicate and agile spirit of a little pup. My dog, Josie, has bad skin allergies and terrible anxiety. She hates to see me leave, some times not even getting a drink or eating until I am back. I know it can be so hard to leave a pet, especially when you know they miss you so much, but I hope I can be the easement for both your baby and you that they will be safe and okay! I would love to make your fur baby feel comfortable and safe with me and take care of them just the way they need. I am totally willing to give any medications or things needed to keep your baby healthy, please let me know any way I can help make your life and your pets life easier! :) If you are looking for any specific care, let me know and I’ll see if I can help. I do not work Mondays and typically have free time Tuesday as well. I could work something out permanently with you or just help out when needed. I am also a waitress, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I am willing to work around your needs. :) I will ensure to keep your pet comfortable and relaxed. My dog personally has dealt with anxiety her whole life, especially separation anxiety, so I know it can be difficult to leave a pet with a new person. I can and will follow any instructions as that you give me or leave out for me to follow. I want to make the process as easy as I can for you. I can send updates all throughout the day with pictures, messages, or even a call. I want to ensure both you and your baby are comfortable and feel at ease when I come to help! Whether your baby just needs someone to let them out and play or a long tiring walk, I am here to help! :)

“Molly is amazing! She is accommodating, kind and trustworthy. My four labradoodles loved her! I received regular pictures of my pets while I was away. Molly will be my go to person for all future business trips and vacations. Molly, you are the best!!!!!”

About: I’ve cared for my family pets my whole life and started pet sitting in high school for neighbors with both dogs and cats. I now have two dogs of my own and treat every animal with love, patience, and care. I currently work part-time and am available Sunday through Wednesday. I’m in college, so mornings and afternoons work best for me to care for your pets. I take care to follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m respectful of your home and will ensure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.

“Gabby has been our pet sitter exclusively for over 2 years now and there is no one else I would trust with my fur baby. She takes incredible care of my very spoiled cat Luna - making sure she receives the same love and attention as when I’m home with her. After a few less than ideal pet sitters, it’s been amazing to have Gabby who cares for your pets (and home) like they are her own.”

“Bonnie surpassed all expectations! My pups took to her immediately at the meet and greet, and were showered with attention during the overnight housesitting. Bonnie brought treats and ruffs for my dogs and sent several pictures and dates over the 2 days. My German Shepherd is especially a nervous Nelly, but he was happy and at ease with Bonnie right away. Caring for two big dogs is not the easiest, but Bonnie did an amazing job. I was so relieved I didn’t have to leave them at daycare and that they were being so well cared for. If you can work with Bonnie, do it! I am so happy to have found a reliable and enthusiastic carer for my dogs.”

“Emily did a great job with our pets while we were away! We would love to have her care for them again!”

“Mason was a terrific sittter/companion/care-giver for our house and 80 lb dog Ringo. She was diligent and kept in touch. Ringo was in good hands w Mason’s vet experience as she handled a small scrap on his paw expertly and with love. The house was well kept and Ringo has a new good friend.”

“Great with our pets! Felt very comfortable leaving her alone in our house with our babies.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and owner, with experience caring for pups from childhood through adulthood. I currently have a 4 year old Australian Cattle Dog/Beagle mix who keeps me busy with her high energy and curiosity. I’ve trained all of my dogs in basic commands such as sit, stay, and fetch, and I’d be happy to integrate these into my playtime with your pup. I understand the importance of structure, exercise, and love in a dog’s/cat’s routine, and I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable care to ensure your furry friend is happy and safe while you’re away. I will make sure your other furry friend (cat/s) have their meals served, litter boxes cleaned, playtime exceed your expectation, and give them the love and affection they too deserve. During COVID, I worked as a dog walker for a close friend, which gave me firsthand experience with drop-ins and daily walks. I know how to structure visits to include 30-40 minutes of walking, playtime, feeding, treats, water, and most importantly lots of love and attention for your pet. In addition, I frequently care for my parents’ 9 year old black Lab mix, who plays well with my own dog. I’m experienced in handling multiple dogs at once, including walking them together safely and ensuring they’re both happy and well exercised. I believe in clear communication and will always ask for detailed instructions about your pet’s routine. Written directions are required for clarity, for example, specific playtimes, treat schedules, preferred walking routes, emergency contacts, and the location of the nearest vet hospital. All of these details will be thoroughly discussed during our first introduction, ensuring your pet gets the personalized care they deserve. I work full time but have flexible hours, allowing me to do drop ins during the day for potty breaks, playtime, or walks. My weekends are usually wide open, and I’m also available for overnight stays any day of the week or weekend. Your pet will receive the same love and attention as my own while I’m with them. They will never be left out of my sight, and I will ensure I’m familiar with the nearest pet hospital in case of an emergency. You will be kept informed from the moment I meet your pet until I leave, with regular updates to ensure you feel comfortable and confident in their care.
