Gracie was absolutely amazing with our two pups! We were given updates and pictures all throughout the day and never had to worry about a thing when we were out of town. We have used this service a lot and haven’t had anyone that can hold a candle to how great Gracie was! Will definitely be calling her again in the future!

Kenna did a great job with our energetic puppy! She was communicative, kept the house super clean, and was overall a joy to work with. My dog loved playing with her pup! This was our first time leaving our puppy so it was such a relief not having to worry! I love that she stayed overnight- it made things much easier. She walked the dog everyday and I could tell my dog was so happy (and tired) when we got home!

Kateri (Rebekah) was amazing to work with! She was on time, did regular check-ins and left our home as she found it. I would definitely use her again and would not hesitate to recommend her to anybody looking for a reliable excellent pet sitter!

About: I have the patience to work with most breeds but the larger ones are my favorite. I’ve had or lived with pets my entire life and will care for yours like it’s my own. Walks, feedings, even baths if they’re up for it! I’m no dog specialist, just someone who genuinely enjoys they’re company. If your dog needs any accommodations (extra loving!) I’ll do my best to meet your expectation. I understand trusting a stranger with your pet can be unnerving but I promise to provide the best service I can. Your dog won’t even know you’re gone! But hey no pressure, choose what’s best for you and your pet. Whether that’s me or someone else, if you’re happy I’m happy. But hopefully you choose me! I’m moving back to Michigan this summer and will not start my full-time position until August. So I have a pretty flexible schedule until then and I would love to fill my time loving on some fluffy babies! I will care for your pet in your home and do all that you have instructed. I know it could be a little stressful to leave your dog and they may worry, but I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and at ease.

About: Hi! I specialize in puppy care, separation anxiety, and brachycephalic breeds. Having a Bulldog of my own has taught me firsthand how to handle the unique needs of smushy-faced dogs — from monitoring breathing to keeping them cool and comfortable. For anxious or velcro dogs, I provide a calm, attentive environment with plenty of reassurance. Puppies get the extra patience, structure, and supervision they need to feel right at home. 🐾 I work remotely full-time, which allows me to be home throughout the day. I do have occasional meetings during the week, but they are typically under 1.5 hours and scheduled in advance. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches of time. I can accommodate morning, mid-day, and evening walks and potty breaks. I’m happy to communicate my schedule ahead of time so you feel fully comfortable. I am fully attentive to the animals. I can provide multiple water/feeding bowls, cooling mats, toys, can give dogs medicine, and lots of love! I guarantee I will respect all boundaries and follow all your directions.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our three boxers received! It was clear Hannah had a genuine love for dogs and plenty of experience handling larger breeds. Our pups can be a handful, but she managed them with patience, confidence, and lots of affection. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how much fun they were having. It was obvious our dogs felt safe, happy, and loved the entire time we were away. Coming home to three relaxed and well-cared-for dogs was the best feeling. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Jillian did incredible! We were kept us up to date on anything going on with the pets and they were provided with great care. We have a 7-year-old Staffie, a nearly 16-year-old Labradoodle and a cat she did wonderful with. They can't wait to see her again :)

Nik did an excellent job taking care of our very energetic golden while we were away on vacation. He sent tons of updates with photos about how his stay was going which really put us at ease! The house was clean when we came home (another huge bonus!) we would definitely book him again in the future.

Mary Kay kept my husband and I at ease while she dog sat at our house on the weekend! We have 5 dogs and we’re leaving them alone for the first time. They are pretty spoiled so we wanted someone to house sit to be with them and give them attention. Mary Kay went above and beyond with the meet and greet, coming early before we left, even cleaned a little (we have a baby under 1 and we’re trying to clean as much as we could before we left) and sent us updates with photos frequently! We will gladly use her in the future!

Diane was a fantastic sitter! She was amazing and easy to work with throughout the process. She stayed in my home while I traveled and my deeply anxious rescue dog and my cats never missed me. Diane kept me informed while I was away, followed all my instructions, and my pets were safe and happy in my absence. I look forward to hiring her again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or rebook her. She’s truly a thoughtful and special person who will care for your pets so you can relax while you’re away.

About: I have owned all types of pets since I was younger. I've owned and cared for dogs in all sizes, long and short hair. I'm great at walking with rowdy dogs and can teach a few basic tricks. I've cared for senior dogs towards the end of their lifespans and can keep up with high energy pups as well! I have flexibility to provide care early in the mornings and very late at night. Saturdays are when I can provide the most hands-on and time intensive care for your pets! I have lots of experience getting new pets to trust me. I am vigilant on watching outdoor activities, keeping gates closed, and any lead lines or leashes attached.

We had such a great experience with Nathalie! She took amazing care of our dogs — made sure they got plenty of walks, playtime, and love. One of our pups is diabetic, and she handled the insulin shots perfectly with care and confidence. The house was spotless when we got home, and we really appreciated the photo updates and messages throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. Highly recommend!
