Pet Sitting in Smiths Creek

“Sam was very patient with my anxious dog. She consistently provided updates during her visits which helped me be at ease and enjoy my time away from home. I will definitely be using Sam’s services in the future!”

“I am eternally greatful for Liz!! She came to my home and met with me pups, agreed to come and do a couple of drop ins for me during a busy weekend. Not only was her communication prompt, her care and compassion was just what my pups needed. I have a nervous dog and Liz had no issues and knew how to handle her with ease. Will definitely hire again in the future 🧡”

I’m only busy one day a week right now, which is Sunday's. Obviously there are days that I’m busy with friends or family or babysitting, something along those lines :) I can’t bring any pets to my home, my pets are shy lol, but of course any special feeding requirements or any special requirements in general, I love to play, keeps me entertained to :)

About: I’ve raised my dog from 4 weeks old to his age now (8 years old). I’m very reliable, patient, gentle, and experienced with dogs. I’m also experienced with cats previously! I’m currently employed in mornings-afternoon Monday-Thursday and am also a student on Tuesdays and Thursdays! I love to take care of animals and would love an extra side hustle to bond with some animals! I will cater to any rules or requests in your home, I will treat your fur baby with love and care and give the requested care you need or want for them!

About: I have had dogs for as long as I can remember. From giant breeds to small dogs, I love them all. I am familiar and can easily handle the strength and slobber of a big dog, while also maintaining the delicate and agile spirit of a little pup. My dog, Josie, has bad skin allergies and terrible anxiety. She hates to see me leave, some times not even getting a drink or eating until I am back. I know it can be so hard to leave a pet, especially when you know they miss you so much, but I hope I can be the easement for both your baby and you that they will be safe and okay! I would love to make your fur baby feel comfortable and safe with me and take care of them just the way they need. I am totally willing to give any medications or things needed to keep your baby healthy, please let me know any way I can help make your life and your pets life easier! :) If you are looking for any specific care, let me know and I’ll see if I can help. I do not work Mondays and typically have free time Tuesday as well. I could work something out permanently with you or just help out when needed. I am also a waitress, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I am willing to work around your needs. :) I will ensure to keep your pet comfortable and relaxed. My dog personally has dealt with anxiety her whole life, especially separation anxiety, so I know it can be difficult to leave a pet with a new person. I can and will follow any instructions as that you give me or leave out for me to follow. I want to make the process as easy as I can for you. I can send updates all throughout the day with pictures, messages, or even a call. I want to ensure both you and your baby are comfortable and feel at ease when I come to help! Whether your baby just needs someone to let them out and play or a long tiring walk, I am here to help! :)

“Molly was absolutely phenomenal!!! Can't say enough positive things! She is kind, sweet, nice, and handled our unsocialized dogs with ease and expertise. Every visit she went above and beyond what we expected. Our German Shepherd that doesn't like anyone warmed up to her in only a few visits. Now they are best friends. Leaving our loved ones home has always been a stressful experience. Not anymore! We are so happy and fortunate to have found Molly, and can't wait to utilize her exemplary services again!”

“Shannon was awesome! Took the time for an initial meet & greet a few days before and communicated each day how it went with Dexter. We will certainly have her take care of Dexter again.”

About: I’ve taken care of & shown all kinds & sizes of dogs since I was 8. Currently only have one dog, but he’s a big boy. I’ve showed Golden, Poms, GSD, husky and our current pet is a Berner/Pyrenees. Groomed all of them too. Also experienced with livestock, so I can handle anything! Grew up with horses, goats, cats and rabbits. Super excited to meet your baby! I am looking to fill some time, so I would be super excited to visit your pet! I’m also very flexible on scheduling as well. I will try to keep your pet to their normal schedule, so even if you are gone, they will not be too upset. I respect your property, and will clean up after the dog & myself to the best of my ability.

About: I grew up on a farm and have cared for small animals, aquatic creatures, farm animals (horses, cows, chickens, etc) and I’ve always been open to caring for my family and friends pets. I’m currently working part-time at Blue Water Pet Care so my availability may differ from day to day but I’m open to weekends and weekdays mostly after 6 pm. Pet safety, comfort, and happiness are my priorities and I’m open to working with all pets and quirky behaviors. Communication is important so just let me know about any particular behaviors.

“Carly is FABULOUS! She always leaves a detailed summary of her visits- which is huge with my senior dog and keeping track of bowel habits and tinkles. Carly walks with my girl in the yard and takes time for lots of pets. Carly pays attention to and adjusts for my dogs significant loss of hearing to avoid startling. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”

About: I have a dog of my own who I care for, have grown up around dogs all my life, and have helped dog sit several dogs. I am currently in school during the week Monday-Thursday, however I only have class a few hours a day. I work 3-4 days a week, usually ranging from 4-6 hours at a time. Depending on when clients contact me, I can be flexible and work with clients needs. I have a cute Miniature Australian Shepherd of my own who loves to play, and I also have a fenced in yard that is large enough to play fetch and run around plenty.

“Gizmo was in safe hands with Stephanie! She was attentive and caring with him. Would absolutely book her again.”

Margaret M.

“She did great! She was super friendly, showed up when she was supposed to, took pictures of our babies. She even did a meet and greet. I would definitely use her again!”

About: Dog owner for 30 years. I have owned and trained therapy dogs for service in assisted living settings for my career (I owned/ operated assisted living communities in Port Huron, Ann Arbor and Seattle). I have lots of patience and reliability. I am very committed to all pets and have been a supporter of ASPCA for many years. I am newly retired and have a lot of flexibility. We have a blended family of both dogs and cats. So I would love to are for your cat or cats as well. I promise great communication and personalized service to meet and exceed your expectations. I am willing to take your pet to the vet or dog park or wherever you like. I look forward to meeting you and your pet.

About: I’ve had pets all my life and I have a love for all animals. I know many dogs through friends and family and I have experience walking and caring for a variety of breeds, ages and temperaments. I used to have two dogs of my own in addition to my three cats, one of which was a Shiba Inu - so I’m used to and can handle dogs that can be reactive or territorial. I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and I love to spoil and care for them. You can be sure I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I would give to my own. I currently have a business I’m starting up so I’m only working part time, as such my availability is varied but generally open. I prefer to sit at others’ homes but would be available to board throughout the week - I have a couple obligations Monday, Wednesday and Friday so just message me and we’ll see what we can work out. As I have three cats any boarding at my home would require the pet to be vetted and to verify they are cat friendly and non-aggressive. For in-home sitting I can provide a walk, feedings and general play and care including letting the dogs out to potty. At my own place I do not have a fully enclosed yard, but I can still take out dogs on-leash, and would provide all the same in-home care as I would sitting. I do have a gate for the kitchen if they needed to be kept separate from the cats. As I rent the dogs must be potty trained, though I understand pee accidents due to excitement and such can happen. In general I offer a safe and friendly environment for your pets regardless of whether I’m in your home or my own, as every animal deserves to be treated with love and care.

About: Other than my own dogs (2 huskies and a Rottweiler/Shepard mix) I have cared for several dogs and cats for years. I have done drop in walks for two dogs and overnight cat sitting. I also worked at a dog kennel when I was a teenager, though that was many moons ago I know your pet will get the very best care on my watch! I had a cleaning company before Covid but have always been in love with dogs and cats. I have two older children who don’t need me as much and can’t wait to start this journey into pet care. I am available Mon, Tues, We’d, Friday and every other Thursday all day for your pet care needs. Having 2 huskies I know the importance of making sure your pet is secure whether that’s in your yard or on a walk. Also making sure there’s nothing left out for them to get into when I leave your home!
