“Anthony is honestly the best. He has been walking them for a couple months now and they LOVE IT. He is so happy to see them and is very particular and diligent about reporting on cards and making sure they have a great (and tiring) time. I am SO GLAD I found him and will definitely continue using his services.”

About: I have always had pets growing up for as long as I can remember. I treat all dogs I meet as if they are my own and love to spoil them. I am currently working full time at a job with a very inconsistent schedule. I will always keep my calendar up to date for when I am available. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with their toys, and showering them with all the love they deserve. My dog and I can’t wait to meet some more dog friends!

About: I'd be happy to be your Rover. Providing an excellent experience and service for you and your furry friend is my goal! Specific feeding times, long walks, special treats, or anything else just let me know. I can guarantee that your dog will be happy and healthy under my care. I currently have a 6-year-old mixed breed dog. I got him from a local shelter and he is a bit hyper but loves to play with other dogs. I had a Boston Terrier. He has been my forever friend for the past 12 years until he passed due to unexpected tumor growths in his lungs. Being with him through his puppy stages, and now into his senior years has taught me a lot. He truly was my best friend, my son, and I will always miss seeing his derpy face in the window staring at me as I pulled into the drive. Thank you, and I hope to meet your dog! I work on-site from 6-7 am to 3:30-4 pm weekly- this makes me unavailable for walks/drop-ins during those times. I could take extended lunches around 12 pm and make drop-ins in the Ada and Lowell area. I am available to provide boarding for your dog any day of the week. Just know that they will be alone during the work week and have to hold their potty time until I get home! I normally let pets free roam when I am not home as long as they do not mark. I have a large back yard, it is unfenced but I never allow my dog unattended outside unless he was on a leash. We go on nature walks. I do love walking in the subdivision behind my home after work to reduce stress his and my stress, so hopefully your pet likes walks!

“I am so grateful for Yulisa. She has been incredibly helpful with our dog, Lizzie who doesn't make a good first impression...even after getting to know her. I especially appreciated Yulisa helping us out when my mom was in the hospital and I needed help on short notice. She is professional, trustworthy/responsible, and kind.”

“Good communication, great with my Lula. Will definitely recommend her!”

About: Starting to book some dates now for this summer. If you are in need of a dog sitter, please keep me in mind has been a part time job. I have absolutely loved doing. I’ve been a dog owner for over 30 years was raised with German shepherds, my dad had a K-9 dog and was on the police force. I’m in the process of getting my dog training certificate. I am a retired business owner of 34 years . I spend most my time taking care of my grandchildren, and my dogs. I have free time to spread my love for dogs . I have a runner for my dogs to run on and I enjoy taking my dogs for long walks and car rides . My fur babies are just like my children.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 15 for family and friends. I have watched all types of dogs, large, small, young, and old as well as some cats. I am an active person that enjoys exercise but I also love nature so I can go at whatever speed your dog prefers. I am a graduate student at MSU so I keep a busy schedule, but I will always find time for your pets and treat them as my own! Although I am not certified I have trained my own dogs and can adjust to whatever level of obedience you are looking to attain. I also volunteer at an animal sanctuary so I have experience with all kinds of animals besides just cats and dogs. I would love to be able to assist you with any of the services I can provide for your furry friends! I am a graduate student so I do have classes during the fall and spring term and MSU employs me part-time as a teaching assistant. I do have availability inside and outside the working hours of the day depending on the day of the week during classes. In the summers, I currently work on research for MSU but have flexible scheduling to fit your pet care needs. I am a detail-oriented person and will care for your pets exactly the way you would in your own home. I also will treat your home as if it was my own and clean up after myself and your pets, and make sure your house is safe and secure while you are gone. I will be happy to take care of your pets and make sure they are well-taken care of until you return!

About: I treat every pet and home with the same care and attention I’d give my own. What sets me apart is my intentionality — I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routines, and needs, whether it’s a high-energy dog, a shy cat, or a senior pet that requires a calm companion. I’ve provided care during holidays, followed detailed medication schedules, and even kept houseplants thriving while clients were away. I’m communicative, clean, and genuinely enjoy creating a stress-free experience for both pets and their people. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine — I genuinely enjoy it and plan my days around giving pets the attention they need. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feeding routines, I stay flexible and dependable. I also build in time for play, snuggles, and cleanup to make sure every visit feels intentional and relaxed. I treat pet care as more than just a task — it’s a rhythm I enjoy and a responsibility I take seriously. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect and create a calm, familiar environment for the pets. I follow all instructions carefully — from feeding routines to preferred walking routes — and make sure pets feel safe, seen, and relaxed. I lock up securely, stay aware of my surroundings on walks, and provide detailed updates so clients always know how things are progressing. My goal is to maintain a peaceful, clean, and trustworthy atmosphere — one that is both for the pets and their owners.

“Cathy did so well with our German Shepherd. He pulls us pretty hard on walks, but wasn’t an issue for Cathy. She was prompt and caring and very communicative. Would definitely request her services again!”

About: I am an avid dog trainer and owner. I have raised dogs for the past 5 years, while traveling around the county with my own dogs and those of others for AKC shows. I am a part of a local 4H club, recent graduate, and have attended prestigious events such as the Westminster Dog Show. During this time I have been responsible for dogs own by other people. I have skills with basic and advanced obedience and conformation. Dogs that I have cared for range from puppies to senior dogs. I have a great ability to make connections with all breeds of dogs. I am used to a daily routine of letting dogs out, feeding, exercising, and training. This routine comes very natural for me. I enjoy working with dogs. I am able to keep a balanced and safe schedule for all pets. I am used to meeting the needs for multiple animals. I show responsibility by following clear directions that have been given to me in order to care for the pet.

I cannot do pet sitting at home, but I am more than comfortable staying at your home and taking care of your furry animal! Safety comes first!

About: From growing up in a pet loving home where there were always dogs running around, to having professional experience of pet sitting through college, I promise to always take care of your pets like they’re my own!

It’s a win win for both of us! :) I have a very flexible schedule right now, so I am able to drop by multiple times a day and/or walk dogs while you are at work during business hours. I am more than happy to accommodate whatever needs your pet(s) have - whether that is crating them back up when I leave or making sure they have plenty food and water.

About: Huge animal advocate! I have been around cats and dogs since I can remember. There is no breed, or animal that I will ever shy away from haha. I have plenty of free time available to spend on our furry friends when needed! I love dog walking and playing with them. As well as playing with our Feline friends:) I am very laid back, but stern when needed. I love nothing more than to go for a good walk, or hang out with any animal really lol. I do like training but that takes consistency in order to master. I have all animals best interests at heart both physically and emotionally.
