“In Switzerland, Daniel was volunteering at the official Zurich kennel. We have a bichon frisé, a rescue dog with parvo virus. He gets seizures when we miss his medication. Daniel takes him for daily walks. Until recently, we had a Shi-Zu, another rescue dog, named Binx. He was older., Daniel loved Binx. Unfortunately Binx had heart problems. Binx needed a lot of medications, and the vet had to put him down. Daniel was very upset about Binx. Daniel has a long history with dogs. He loves dogs.”

“Morgan has cared for our pets (2 dogs and 1 cat) several times. She is very dependable and loves animals. My favorite part is always the notes she leaves for each visit. I know our fur babies looked forward to her visiting them.”

“Awesome! Very friendly and reliable! Would not hesitate to use her every time to walk our dog!!”

About: I completed the Dog Walking Academy in November 2018, provided by TipTopTails Training in Kalamazoo. Also completed Pet Tech CPR, First Aid and Care in November 2018. Having recently retired from WMU, I am looking forward to spending time with your dog(s) or cat(s) and earning some extra income. I have been a dog owner all of my life, my husband and I currently have one American Staffordshire Terrier rescue named Mazzie who is three years old. I am available to come to your home to visit with and care for your pets, I am not able to house your animals at my home during the day or overnight. Eventually, these services may also be available. I have experience with dogs who need daily medications (insulin, seizure meds) or those with chronic issues. I am available to care for your pet(s) in your home while you are away for the day or on vacation. I am retired from WMU and have fairly open days and evenings. I am not able to do overnights at this time. I have had many dogs and right now we have adopted a new rescue dog, a Staffordshire terrier who is about 3 years old. For that reason, I do not bring your animals to my home, I come to you.

“McKenzie has a true heart for animals. I think she’d have them all live with her if she could. Our dog is a bit aggressive and she handles him just fine. She just pours out so much love on animals. Your pets will be in great hands if she takes care of them for you. She is respectful and trustworthy.”

“Jess stands out as the biggest, most compassionate animal lover I've ever known. She has a heart for all living creatures and treats them with kindness and respect. She did a wonderful job with our pups! They had a great time with Jess!”

“Grace was willing to come a long way for a trial walk and then realized it was too far. She was friendly and able to handle my larger dog and nervous smaller dog.”

About: I've had different kinds of pets since I was 8. I have taken care of rabbits, cats, dogs, fish, and turtles. I always have a thing when it comes to animals, I really enjoy their presence. I'm very playful with animals and I always make sure that the animals I take care of are comfortable and happy being around me. I am currently a full time student. If you need me on weekdays please let me know because I have different schedules each day. Notes: I am pretty much available for the summer! My apartment is pet friendly. There's a big field next to my apartment. There is a lot of puppies in my neighborhood so your dog won't ever get lonely. There's also dog waste bags everywhere near my apartment, so your dog can potty anywhere. For cats, I have cat toys in my apartment because I have 2 cats but they currently live at my parents house, for potty I might have to buy the sand or if you could provide one that would be awesome!

“Jackie has cared for my dog several times as i travel a lot for work. She handles my pup with great care and even sends me pupdates of their activities! I can tell my little pup is happy with her.”

“She took some hilarious photos today of Ollie 😂 she never rushes with him and she’s been very reliable walking him while we are at work. Thank you!”

“Barb is amazing!!! Every time she gets home, Lola gets super excited because she knows is time for her walk! Barb is sweet and very kind with my baby!! 100% recommended!!”

About: I am a retired high school counselor who loves animals. I’m married, no children, but have two beautiful Maine Coons, Luke and Scout. I have time to help others take care of their dogs and/or cats. I am the biggest animal lover you will ever meet! I can care for your pets when you’re away and give them the care and attention they deserve. Whatever they need while you’re away, just let me know. I’m happy to help! I will feed your pets and make sure they have clean water. If you’re gone for a while, I can play with the cats or take the dogs for walks. In my own home, my cats free feed wet and dry food. They also have a water fountain and get bottled water only. They have tons of toys, many of which are interactive. They get their nails trimmed once a week and combed daily.

“Erin is a wonderful pet owner and dog sitter! She has had dogs all her life, and now has one of her own. She adopted him from an animal shelter in Illinois and he was a bit naughty at first. His stubborn and smart terrier tendencies coupled with his medicore training was not the ideal mix. He began his journey with her as a very energetic and a bit aggressive pup. Her first interaction with him he actually had one of his 'episodes' where he gets aggressive when he can't get his way. Nowadays you never would've known he even had the capability to do that; he rarely every lashes out and he knows many tricks-he even knows how to dance! He almost always comes when he is called and listens to what he is told 9 out of 10 times. He is also one of the most spoiled dogs I have ever met and hates being away from her-he even has a doggy life jacket to go on kayak trips with her. I would reccommend Erin as a dogsitter to anyone! ”

“Maggie is the best!! Our dogs were staying with my elderly parents while we were out of town and needed to be walked everyday. Maggie came to our rescue and walked them daily and gave them VIP treatment! Maggie is a dependable, professional loving care giver and we would definitely call her again to care for our dogs!!”

“They are a very loving pet owner. Their dogs are looked after well, consistently get to play with other dogs and go on adventures inside and outside of their home. I would definitely recommend them to watch your dogs.”

“I have known Mallory for over 2 years now. Among many attributes she possesses, politeness, happiness, and caring are the ones that stand out. As far as her animal love goes, Mallory has an Australian Sheppard named Baylee and a Corgi named Marcie as a pet. If you know Mallory in person, you can attest that her love for animals is the greatest. She will always make time from her busy schedule to take them out for walks or other activities, such as meeting other dogs or going for a swim at the beach. Furthermore, she is always very attentive to their health and takes them regularly to the vet to ensure that her pets are in good shape. Mallory is a great people person, she is always willing to meet new people and treat them with respect. Mallory would be a perfect candidate for caring for your pets because she is loving, caring, and very respectful to other people and pets.”
