House Sitting in Reed City

About: Hi! I’m a longtime pet sitter with 10+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters and genuinely love getting to know animals of all personalities—from energetic pups to shy cats and senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I especially enjoy in-home pet and house sitting because I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment where they can stick to their routine and feel safe and relaxed. My goal is always to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I’ll treat your pets like family, give them lots of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you always know they’re happy and cared for. I currently work full-time during the week but make pet care a priority in my routine. I’m available for mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I’m happy to work around feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and routines to make sure your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away. With over 10 years of pet sitting experience and volunteer experience at animal shelters, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, temperament, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll always treat your pets like my own and respect your home while keeping you updated for peace of mind.

“Brittney did an excellent job house sitting with my dog Millie. She walked Millie several times a day and sent lots of pictures and feedback. She followed instructions well and asked questions when a scenario did fit the instructions. I would definitely ask her to help out again.”

“Fran treated our dogs like her own! She was wonderful about keeping us informed. We came back to our house being better than we left it and two very happy dogs!”

Ashley R.

“I am more than happy with the service provided by Megan (and Scott). I asked they take Frank on a walk because he had been crated for a few hours, feed him and just hang out for a while. They went beyond, by taking him on 2 walks, sending several pictures of a smiley happy dog and communicating throughout the visit what Frank was up to. They are friendly, knowledgeable about dogs and training, timely and reliable. We were at ease being gone for so long knowing Frank was in good hands. I will absolutely use them again when we need someone to take care of our boy.”

About: ’ve had hands-on experience caring for animals for many years. Since around age 12, I’ve regularly helped care for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors. During that time I’ve provided feeding, walking, bathing, pet sitting, playtime, and general daily care. I also have experience helping with basic training and working with dogs who were preparing for adoption, which helped me learn how to work with different personalities, energy levels, and comfort needs. Most recently, I’ve been volunteering at a local animal shelter for over 4 months. In this role, I assist with a variety of responsibilities including walking dogs, bathing, playtime and enrichment, administering medications when needed, transporting animals, and helping with overall animal care at the shelter. Working with animals in both home and shelter environments has given me experience with pets of different temperaments, and I always focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always do my best to provide reliable, attentive care. If you’re looking for someone dependable who genuinely cares about animals, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I’m currently in an on call sort of situation, so my schedule is very flexible! I ask that we at least get a few days advance notice due to a fluctuating schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. Through my experience caring for pets and volunteering at a local animal shelter, I’ve worked with animals of many different temperaments and understand the importance of patience, awareness, and safe handling. I always make sure pets are secure on walks, monitored during playtime, and given plenty of attention and care. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have for feeding, medications, routines, or training. I believe communication is very important, so I’m glad to send updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Emily is so great with my dog, Louie! She stayed at our house for a weekend and gave Louie so much love and attention. It was very appreciated!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for more than half my life. Which has grown into building my own passion serving animals in many ways. I care for animals locally, will travel up to 50 miles, can provide care inside your home, provide walks, give rides to the vet office or groomer, I can give medications, bathe your animal in your home, and I can provide fun fulfilling adventures and activities! With having a flexible schedule I can focus on providing quality care to your pet/pets. 7 days a week with flexible morning, afternoon and evening hours. I’m able to care for pets inside of your home. Rather this needs to be letting them out into a fenced in yard, walking them off property or on property, taking them out of or putting them into a crate/ kennel. Crate cleanup if needed and dog poo cleanup from your yard each time I have a visit.

“Aliya took great care of our dogs and our home. Highly recommend her. She followed my directions with care and communicated with me while I was gone.”

About: The majority of my family life was spent with furry companions. I grew up with dogs and cats, and have love for all animals. I will provide excellent care, and adhere/follow all rules and guidelines you set forth, as well as exceptional communication on my end. I’m looking forward to caring for your furry family members! I am an actor and photographer, and avid nature lover. This allows for a flexible schedule that can be perfectly balanced with pet care. So your pets needs will come first while keeping to a stress free presence. Caring for your animals in your home will be done precisely as you request. I definitely maintain enough play and attention to make sure your pet feels happy and safe. Other than that: you set the guidelines and I shall follow.

“Natalia did a great job watching our two dogs while we were out. She came over 3 -4 times per day to feed them and take them out exactly as we had planned.”

About: My years in the pet care field and the ability to give any meds or special needs to various issues or concerns to keep them safe and happy I am retired so I will have plenty of time to spend one on one interaction with your pet and give them the attention they deserve I will ensure that the yard is secure if fenced in or the collar is secure when walking. Cats I will be careful in opening doors to the outside.
