Cat Sitting Riley

“Emily was awesome to work with and took good care of our new puppy and older dog. She was very responsive to all our questions and made sure to schedule a meet n greet with the dogs prior to her watching them. She communicated clearly and was timely with her drop in visits. Very respectful of our home and wishes for training the new puppy. Would highly recommend her for anyone in need of an attentive and caring dog sitter.”

About: I've cared for a variety of pets and livestock my entire life, including medical care. Additionally, I have spent time and am passionate about working with and training dogs. My Aussie-Collie is a high energy and intelligent guy, so I'm used to working with higher-drive dogs. Prices may be subject to discount depending on location. If you are looking for livestock care, I have a history working with horses, cows, pigs, goats, sheep, rabbits, poultry, etc. Availability on an hourly basis may change, once an appointment is requested, we can message regarding details. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am generally unavailable for Drop-Ins and Dog Walks after 1:00 pm. Wednesdays I am generally unavailable for Drop-Ins and Dog Walks after 5:00 pm. I am currently an online, asynchronous student, so my schedule is very flexible. This means that I will have plenty of time to spend caring for your pet. I have a fenced in yard, and gates through the house to ensure that spaces can be portioned off if needed. I also have experience monitoring the health of pets, livestock, and laboratory animals.

“Jamie has been so patient and kind dropping in on our very shy cat while we’ve been away. Jamie is excellent at communicating and always responds quickly. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jamie again!”

“Talia is great to work with, very communicative, my dog loves her! We get updated pictures and comments, and she even straightened up my house a little bit-bonus!!”

“Our booking was awesome! Tracey cared for our animals as if they were her own and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of while we were away! Definitely recommend!”

“Outstanding experience with Sheri. She took care of both our dogs — a high-energy 1-year-old yellow lab and our 14-year-old chocolate lab who needs a bit more attention — and handled both without any issues. Sheri went above and beyond in ways we didn't ask for and didn't expect. She wiped the dogs down every time they came inside, which matters a lot with a younger lab who gets into everything. She also picked up after them in the yard — never asked, just did it. That kind of stuff you notice. We came home to two happy dogs and a clean space. No complaints at all. I would absolutely book Sheri again and recommend her to anyone.”

“Wonderful and thorough care. I never worried about my boy while gone for a week. She anticipated needs even I did not (full litter box change) and went above and beyond in other ways as well. She sends lots of updates which was a comfort while away. She cared for my boy cat Zissou as if her own. 1000% recommend! She will be who I use for any future needs.”

About: For years I have been surrounded by animals and taking care of them. I am here to help owners who don’t have the time to give their dogs a walk or even needing pet sitting! Currently this is my only job, I only will be doing sitting or walking during the week. My routine basically depends on the animals and what client's wish me to help with or do during my hours with the animals. I can take care of lizards, dogs, and cats. I always first make sure what allergies or restrictions are needed for the pet at their home. I offer walking and pet sitting. I can come at certain times the owner needs by request to make sure the animal is safe and cared for.

About: This Is Not Pet Sitting. This Is Stewardship. Thoughtful, safety-first care for dogs who deserve to be deeply understood. As the owner of Noble Paw Society LLC, care is approached with intention, discernment, and deep respect for the individuality of every dog. As a certified therapy dog handler and aspiring professional dog trainer, I bring both intuitive understanding and a growing technical foundation to my work. My experience spans dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and backgrounds, supported by extensive foster work that has shaped a calm, adaptable, and safety-first approach to care. I am highly attentive to canine behavior, environmental management, and proper introductions, ensuring that every dog in my care feels secure, respected, and well-matched. Safety, structure, and emotional well-being are at the core of every service I provide. Noble Paw Society operates with a selective client model, maintaining a small, well-curated roster to ensure each dog receives elevated, personalized attention. I offer in-home boarding and house sitting, with availability primarily in the evenings and on weekends. Many of my clients are long-standing relationships built on trust, consistency, and thoughtful care. My home is a calm, dog-centered environment with a secure fenced yard and two well-socialized resident dogs, both rescues. Both are certified therapy dogs (Spring 2025 and Spring 2026). Dogs here are treated as family, with comfort, enrichment, and appropriate boundaries thoughtfully balanced. For those who value discretion, reliability, and a higher standard of care, Noble Paw Society offers a refined approach to pet sitting rooted in trust, safety, and genuine connection.

About: At an early age, I started walking the neighborhood dogs. I’ve always loved animals, and treat them as my own. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their pets and take them out when needed. I’m very attentive and will treat every animal with the kindness they deserve. I work from home three days a week, and have the weekends off. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can take my work with me anywhere I go. Caring for your pets in your home will be my main priority. I will make sure they are well taken care of, loved, and feel safe.

“so sweet and so timely!”

“We had a short notice trip and thankfully we're able to find Anthony available. After a meet and greet with our 2 adult dogs and 1 puppy we knew it would go well. Even our puppy who is a little hesitant of new people loved him immediately. Anthony did good with sending pictures, keeping the house clean, and making sure to send updates.”

About: When petsitting, I go beyond basic pet sitting by tailoring care to each pet’s personality and routine. I’m reliable, a good communicator, and can keep you updated via pictures! I also have experience administering medications and handling anxious pets as I have one of my own. My goal is to prioritize your pets safety, and keep them happy and comfortable. I am on the MSU women’s rowing team, and only have practices 6:30-9:30am daily. Aside from that, I have a part-time job with a very free schedule. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment whether pets are in my own home or yours. I don’t like to get them off routine as I know that can be a bit overwhelming for some animals, and love to give lots of attention! I’ll also be attentive to any needs of the pet, and keep you updated with photos/texts so you know your pet is in good hands!

About: I have had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been a big part of who I am. I currently work at a doggy daycare, where I spend my days supervising, playing with, and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. This experience has given me strong skills in understanding dog behavior, maintaining safe group environments, and making sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, training levels, abilities, and dietary needs. I’m comfortable caring for high-energy puppies, senior dogs who need a gentler pace, and everything in between. Working in daycare has also taught me how to read body language, manage different temperaments, and provide individualized attention to each dog. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and happy while giving owners peace of mind that their dog is in good hands. I treat every dog like they are my own and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I currently work part-time and am an MSU senior and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m available for visits, walks, and sitting during weekdays after work and have more open availability on weekends. Since I already spend much of my time around animals through my job, caring for pets is something I truly enjoy and easily incorporate into my day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs they may have so I can provide consistent and attentive care. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and house rules. I pay close attention to animal behavior and make sure pets are always in a safe and calm environment. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their pet is in good hands.

“Alex was great! He was very communicative about my pets and let me know what time he was arriving and leaving each day. He made sure our boy cat got his medicine and was really good about getting our picky cat to eat away from the others. He sent pictures each day, which was very comforting. He also brought in packages from our mail securely in the house, which was extra helpful.”

About: I have grown up with dogs. I am excellent at following any instructions that you may have. I am looking forward to working with you and your pet! I am a stay at home mom! I take care of my two young boys and my dog, a Golden Retriever, every day. I have a consistent routine with each. Leaving me with written instructions helps me so much! You know your pet best which allows me to meet their needs. Also, I will contact you if I have any questions.

“Jessi was on time every visit, very detailed on letting us know how the fur babies were doing plus taking photos. 5 Star rating hands down !”

About: My schedule is hybrid so I can be in and out during the work day. I grew up around cats and also have a toy fox terrier. I spent a lot of time with labs as well. Spade spent a lot of time with beagles and labs. I used to have a Chihuahua who sadly passed away 2 years ago. The yard is completely fenced in and big enough for them to play. I will also take them for walks. I have experience with injections for dogs that need insulin or medication. I work two days at home three days in office. It is hybrid and a lot of it is spent out in the community so I am able to pop in and out a lot during the work week. I have a fenced in backyard. I have a dog that is super friendly and loving. She loves other animals and any kind of company.

About: I have had my own dog since I was 8 and taken care of other family and friends’ dog throughout my life. They have relied on my to feed, walk, and watch their pets while they are gone. I currently work from home, so I would be available at different times throughout the week depending on my schedule but most times during the week. I am currently living in an apartment with two kittens. This building allows animals and there are big open grass area for dogs as well as a walking trail nearby.

About: Ever since I was little, I have loved all kinds of animals and hope to one day have a career working with them. I have been helping care for my own dogs since I was around six years old and have experience with both large breeds, like Labrador Retrievers, and small breeds, like Chihuahuas. I have also cared for the dogs and cats of friends and family while they were away. In addition to dogs and cats, I have owned and cared for two hamsters, a Canadian goose, three ducks, and have experience helping care for horses. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they sometimes need. Currently, I have two Labrador Retrievers named Annie and Delta, and I love spending time caring for them. I am also comfortable administering medications, as one of my dogs requires seizure medication three times a day. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am committed to providing loving, reliable, and attentive care for every animal I look after. I am a junior at Hope College home for the summer so my schedule is fairly open and I am very flexible. I am usually busy weekends and Tuesday and Thursday nights when I am coaching lacrosse. I can care for your dog in your home just as you would care for your dog if you were home. I could easily crate your dog if needed, take them for walks, feed them, and take them out to use the bathroom.
