“We have had Emily take care of Zeus, our English Mastiff, on multiple occasions. She has stayed at our home with him for long weekends and has always been very caring, respectful, and trustworthy. Emily has always taken care of his needs, including giving medication daily on top of feeding, letting him outside, and genuinely making him feel comfortable. I have never had to worry about Zeus’ well being while we were away, Emily is the first person we go to when we need care!”

“Awesome job”

“I'm so glad I found Dennis & Wendy to house sit while I was away over Christmas. I was gone for almost 4 weeks and felt very comfortable the whole time that our pets were being looked after. They treated them like their own, and weren't put off at all by the face that we had 4 cats, including two, 5-month old newly-adopted kittens, and a dog (who became very attached to Dennis!) I would highly recommend them to anyone who's looking to leave their home in the safe hands of reliable house sitters, and hope to have them back for future house-sits.”

“Sandy did a great job!”

About: Hi, I’m Erica — your pet’s new best friend! 🐾 I’m a certified dog trainer and a lifelong animal rescuer. I used to run a dog kennel and training company in Houston, and now I’m excited to provide top-notch care in Ogemaw County. My home is filled with four rescue dogs, including a German Shepherd who’s a certified service dog. I live on 6 acres of open space, with a large fenced area (about 120 x 100 ft) that your pets can access 24/7 through a doggy door — so they can roam, play, and be happy while staying safe. Because I work from home, your pet will get plenty of supervision, love, and human interaction all day long. Whether your pup needs walks, training (basic or advanced), medication, or just a cozy cuddle, I provide it all with love, patience, and attention to detail. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and help them thrive! 🐶💛 **I also make homemade, healthy dog meals — from hearty meatloaf and stews to tasty treats. I am a chef on the side, so I avoid processed food and cook fresh weekly. A batch of seven meals is $30. I work from home, so you never have to worry about your babies being home alone for a long period of time. My backyard is accessible for the pups all morning and afternoon and I have a dog pool and sprinkler system for them in the back when its too hot. The only time I use crates is when I feed, but other than that dogs are dogs here! 3 out of 4 of my pups are fully trained. My smallest one is not. I found her in the middle of the highway, near death, and miraculously she somewhat recovered. Her tail is forever broken, and 2 out of the 6 broken hip/pelvis bones will never heal correctly. I will also never train her. She will live the rest of her life - her way. She’s been so abused by humans that she’s a firecracker tbh, but she lovessss dogs her size. Humans are not her thing though. Safety will always be my #1 priority. So I have a routine for everything — meet and greets, staying the night, even how my dogs enter a door. Because of these structures, I’ve never had a single dog fight. I really take pride in making sure my home is an oasis — a peaceful, safe, and happy place where every dog can truly be themselves.

About: I have always had a love for animals and have three pups of my own. I am a stay at home mom and watch everyone’s dogs (and kids). We love going for walks and running around in the backyard! I am a stay at home mom so taking care of dogs would be my only job other than being a mom to my two children. We go for two walks a day and spend lots of time outside! In my home we have a fully fenced in yard for lots of running around and play time. When we are inside we have a doggie gate so that no dogs are running over the baby.

“Sissy always does a great job with Yeti! Picking him up and dropping him off at the campground we’re staying at and watching him while we’re on a river tubing trip is so helpful and stress-free for us. We will continue to use Sissy anytime we’re vacationing in the area.”

“Tiffany is an excellent pet owner! They aren't just pets they are family to her. She treats every animal like her own and would do anything to keep them safe! I trust her with my dogs all the time!!!!”

“We've taken our dog Lucy to Jerri a few times now, and she is just wonderful! A true dog lover. She is a great communicator and sends pictures and updates through out the day. She goes above and beyond what we could hope, and we know our pug is super happy when she is there! You can trust your furry baby with Jerri. She's great!”

“Alexis was quick to respond and flexible as weather changed plans for a kayak trip. She also efficiently made sure my dog would be comfortable and have her needs met during her stay. I would absolutely recommend Alexis and wouldn't hesitate to have my dog stay with her again.”
