Dog Walkers in South Lyon, MI

“Accommodated a last minute booking. I came home to a tired, relaxed dog that didn't have an accident. What a relief I really couldn't ask for anything better. She also sent some really cute pictures.”

“Emi-Lu is definitely the person you want caring for your dog when you are gone. She is thorough, detailed, kind, and compassionate. She even texted me this morning to make sure she could find my key and to ask how long our dog likes to walk. Emi-Lu is the best sitter on Rover!!”

“Amy came today and helped me out tremendously! I stayed home sick and did not have the strength to walk my dog. We made a pick up adjustment and Amy still came and walked my pup. I'm so grateful!”

About: My experience and background with animals spans over the course 20 years. I've worked as a veterinary technician, fostered nearly 2 dozen puppies for rescue programs, and founded my own successful non-profit rescue & conservation program dedicated to primitive canids. I had the wonderful experience of helping one of these rare dogs whelp & raise a massive litter of 12. I've owned numerous breeds including a Beagle, working-line German Shepherd, working-line Anatolian Shepherd, and numerous primitives such Carolina Dogs, a coydog hybrid, & an imported Canaan Dog. I've trained dogs in sports such as schutzhund & nosework. I established my private dog training business in 2019- specializing in puppies and working dogs such as service & livestock guardian dogs. I've been blessed to own two wonderful cats! On our homestead we had an incredible indoor/outdoor boy that kept the rodents at bay. We also have a sweet, indoor-only kitty that lives the high life with raw food & endless cuddles! I'm thoroughly experienced in caring for senior dogs & cats, administering medications, first aid, & wound care. I've fed numerous specialized diets, including fully raw. I adore the puppy stage- including crate training, potty training, & socialization. I'm a strong advocate for socialization that bolsters confident neutrality. A puppy's endless curiosity is so fun to harness! I enjoy giving dogs a balance of outdoor exercise like hiking, as well as indoor mental enrichment like games and puzzles. A tired dog is a happy dog! I train dogs part time & homeschool my daughter- which lends me a great deal of flexibility in my schedule. I can often accommodate short notice requests. Your beloved pet's safety is critical to me. I'm extremely cautious with opening & closing doors so no animals can slip through a door, check the fit of a dog's collar to prevent potential backing out, & ensure there's nothing a pup or kitty could get into thats potentially dangerous. I have a very strong preference for using martingale collars on dogs for walks to mitigate that risk. I've personally endured the tragedy of my young dog slipping the door and being hit by a car while a sitter was taking care of him- so I assure you I take this very seriously. Building trust with both owners and their pets is pivotal! I'm committed to open communication and honesty. I allow pets to greet me on their terms and understand some animals need a more patient, gentle approach than others. I strive to create a positive, calm environment for your pets- and once I'm trusted by them, I will add the playfulness and affection they deserve!

“Lyle did an AMAZING job others both of our dogs - 4 year old GSD and 8 year old Jack Russell Terrier/Beagle mix. He is prompt, kind, trustworthy and best of all VERY experienced. Our dogs were so well behaved long after he was with them. We have since booked 2 additional future occasions and plan to book more. Highly recommended sitter!”

“Michelle was great with Ranger! Prompt with her arrival, and spent the full time with him. He was able to get some energy out and not be alone all day which is exactly what he needed! We will continue booking with Michelle 😁”

About: Hi there! 👋 I’m Corrine, and I’ve spent the past 2 years caring for dogs and cats of all kinds — from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely love spending my free time around them. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing fetch, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like my own. When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me with furry friends, making sure they’re happy, safe, and loved. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to giving every pet the attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members! 🐾 I work full time but love to hang with pets in my free time! Happy to assist on week nights or weekends. Willing to travel a little bit as well. I care for pets as if they are my own. Give them their own food, bed and safety - whether it be free roaming or in a crate. Whatever makes them feel safe and loved.

“We have been utilizing Kathleen for over a week as our walker for our very shy and apprehensive doggo. Kathleen was SO patient, gentle, and perfectly in tune with what our pup needed, and we have already been extremely impressed by her. Our dog normally takes weeks to warm up to someone, but now she already is taking her on a nearly mile long walk (and sends the cutest pics from them) - and this really does just prove that she is "Modern Day Snow White!" In addition to this she shows the utmost professionalism in what she does, and we feel confident leaving our pets in her care. Our only problem with leaving this review is that we don't want anyone to take her away from us, she's just that good and we feel so lucky to have her! We look forward to leaving more great reviews for Kathleen in the future :)”

About: I grew up on a small hobby farm with over 200 animals (goats, chickens, rabbits, horses, dogs, cats, even a chinchilla, ferret, parrot and monkey!) so I have been raised taking care of animals. I've owned over 20 different dogs in my lifetime - that's a lot of love, fun and even some tears. I am an active member of my family and church and thankfully those duties allow me to be at my house during the week - perfect for dog walks and home check-ins. I have three Havanese fur babies of my own and occasionally, depending on the fur friend I'm visiting, one of them may join me on a walk with another dog. If I go to your home, I will make sure to keep you updated on my time with your pup and I will talk qith you in detail about how I can best care for him/her while I spend time with them. I will do my best to spend a solid 30 min. of time with your fur friend. The only acception to this is if it is pouring rain. I will he happy to let your dog out in this case but we will not spend 30 min in the rain. A little sprinkle won't hold us back though!
