Pet Sitting Russell Woods

About: I grew up with large breeds and have had dogs my entire life. I lived with all different kinds of foster dogs and now have one 5 year old dog at home. My husband and I are teachers who are home full time in the summer, so we can provide a lot of attention and love to any dog that comes to stay with us! I am a teacher who is home for the summer. I get up early to take a morning walk and avoid the summer heat and take another evening walk. I love taking my dog to the beach to swim throughout the week, as well. I live in a home with a yard (unfenced) and a 5 year old poodle mix to keep your pup company. Lots of walks and time spent snuggling will help keep your dog happy when they stay with me.

“Mary Kay was attentive to all my pets’ needs and was very sweet with them. She followed my drop in instructions perfectly and was very punctual. I appreciate her interest in treating them and giving them additional care beyond Cholula’s basic need of a potty break. We are so fortunate to have her services weekly moving forward.”

“Lukis was a literal godsend!! I got photo updates during the visit, which I loved, and my cat was so appreciative of the food and attention 😄 I will 1000% be booking with Lukis again, and I highly encourage anyone who needs a pet sitter in this general area to do so as well!! (Side note, if you have a cat that isn’t super friendly, my cat Honey is very particular about new people and strangers and she was completely fine with Lukis—so she also gives the official Stamp of Approval™️).”

“My cat was so well cared for!!!”

“Amanda was great! She sent lots of pictures and made sure my two cats (including a very anxious one) were well taken care of while I was out of town for work! She also left my apartment super clean which was so nice to come back to!”

“Lauren was a fantastic sitter. She was great at communicating and went above and beyond in making sure my pet was taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Really appreciated being able to do a drop-in before a longer house sitting stay. Nicole provided lots of updates and pictures, and Louis seemed perfectly content when I got home.”

About: I've been around dogs most of my life, while taking care of 3 of my own. I'm currently training my dog to build a stronger bond. I'm currently working full time and training my dog daily. I have availability on weekends and weekday evenings as needed. Let me know what you're looking for. I will work on building trust with your fur baby, allowing them time to adjust to a new person in their space. I need to know their likes, dislikes, and routine if they have one.

About: I am athlete with good energy and can go on long walks for dogs that need extra because they have extra energy. I also have excellent patience, if you’re nervous about your dog’s temperament. I work full time but have a little flexibility. I would like step into a new a field that I would love and am familiar with. I care for my dogs in my home by keeping them on a consistent schedule. I give them the proper attention while maintaining necessary boundaries that animals need to have.

“I’ve had Kenny for a week. She’s amazing . I couldn’t ask for a better drop in sitter to be honest. With the commitment, level of care PLUS the time spent I can’t imagine having hired anyone else. Moving forward she will be my go to. I intend to keep her for weeks. In the hospital having a baby and complications since I can’t come home and she made accommodations to meet me; tend to my home and my cat. Very professional. Personal with the cat. Brought his confidence way up. On time, communication is perfect and documentation for visits is very reassuring for me and my daughter. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Thank you Kenna!!”

About: Grew up with pets but can’t have my own right now. I’m looking to help others and get to have be around pets part time! I am self employed with flexible hours every day of the week. I go on daily walks so having a dog by my side would make them even better! I’m kind and gentle and pets gravitate towards me. I’m great at problem solving and always love to send photo updates of your fur babies.

“I felt very comfortable leaving my cat in Kayla’s care! I would recommend hiring her.”

Lucy M.

“We have a high maintenance multiple cat situation that Chelsea handled without a hitch. She asked great questions during our initial meet, and was prompt, attentive and kind to our cats. She gave me an update every visit along with photos of each cat so I knew they were all accounted for and doing ok. Would hire again and highly recommend.”

“Katherine was amazing watching our pets for us, she left us detailed notes and photos of all our animals!! We would definitely use her again to watch our pets!”

About: I've owned/fostered/rescued animals my whole life, and I'm an avid animal lover. I run a rescue program with my friend and community members, and am very skilled with medical monitoring and behavior reading. I have experience working with special needs and elderly animals. I've administered oral medication and eye drops, changed doggy diapers, and bottle fed babies. I also have experience working with aggressive and territorial animals, I maintain a gentle and patient energy and work hard to create a secure relationship with each pet. I don't mind cleaning, I love super active animals, and I'm confident and reliable in caretaking. I work independently as an artist and curator, so I make my own schedule, so I always have plenty of time for your fur baby. I am unable to watch pets at my own place, as I am constantly fostering and have my own cats. I've been a trusted house/pet/baby sitter for 10 years, and will take great care of your space.

About: I am an all-around animal lover but I love dogs for their sweetness and playfulness. I’m a soccer fan, lover of music and love to spend time outside. I have experience with both small and medium size dogs. This includes walking, playing, bathing, feeding and dog-sitting. I even have some experience with puppies. I am a small person so I prefer not to walk large dogs. Good physical and mental health are important aspects to maintain in life. Adequate amount of exercise and play time are necessary in a dog's daily routine. I hope to meet and give your furry companion the care they need while you're away. After all, dogs are more than pets, they are part of the family and deserve to be treated as such. I am a full time artist and business owner. Being my own boss allows me to have a flexible schedule. It’s important for me to incorporate movement and fun into my daily life and there’s no better way than to spend time with animals by taking walks and playing. I like to have a clear understanding of an animal’s routine. Sticking to predictable routines are good for their nervous systems. For walking services, I like to go on calm, enriching walks. I’m down for detours and all the sniffing and sometimes I like to finish a walk with a short race back to the house. I ensure that they are hydrating and have everything they need before leaving and locking up. For house stays, I like to spend as much time with animals as they like. Most of my experience is with overnight stays. I am very clean and organized and make sure to do a nice reset for your return home.

About: Life can get busy, and sometimes we all need an extra hand when it comes to caring for our pets. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re balancing a full schedule. I work a full-time job, but I’m committed to making time for pets because I truly enjoy spending time with them. Im willing to work with your schedule as best as I can to make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or just keeping them company, I’ll do my best to provide care you can count on. I’m willing to do visits anytime after 5PM. I currently work full-time, but I am available for dog walks and drop-in visits after 5PM. I’m committed to planning ahead and coordinating schedules to ensure your pet receives reliable and consistent care. I value clear communication and will always do my best to confirm availability in advance so you can book with confidence. I am very organized, always well prepared. I will make sure your pet stays on their feeding, walk , or play schedule. Even clean their messes!

“She was wonderful! Go above and beyond and did everything I requested. The dogs loved her and I would definitely book her again.”

“Carli is fantastic with our puppy. She started watching her when she was 11 weeks old. Carli writes detailed updates with pictures so we always feel informed.”

About: I’ve lived in Atlanta for about 20 years and one of my favorite things about this city is the animal life; both wild and domesticated. I have recently relocates to Detroit! My friend call me “The Dog Whisperer” because everywhere I go puppers can’t get enough of me! My summertime availability is 100% flexible. I’ve taken care of all types of dogs old and young, big and small. I’m no stranger to giving medication or dealing with rambunctious dogs who need a little extra time outside. I believe that all animals deserve love and care and that all owners deserve a break. These puppies are like our children and sometimes kids have to be sent to Autie’s House. Let me be your puppy aunt. The pleasure is all mine. I take classes online and bartend part time. My schedule is very flexible. I am home during the day to play and cuddle with the animals. I leave for work in between 2-4 and return between 8-10. If I am returning at 10 I will feed the dogs before I leave and give them a little treat/snack when I return. I care for the pets based upon your personal standards and their routine. I currently do not offer boarding because of my own skittish pet.
