House Sitting in Southfield

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs since the moment I was born. I had my own dog when I was 12, and love living with all sizes. I’ve lived with a Doberman, pitbull, terrier, rescued cats, and even a turtle. I love making homemade pet-friendly treats and I have a knack for tiring out pets through my daily 2 mile walks. I like work my weekends tailored to my pets schedule. I’m an early morning person, so ideally we’d love to take the dogs to the dog park, on a long morning walk, and grab a neighborhood coffee. When it’s nice weather, a small grill out or pizza at a pet friendly cafe is ideal. I always do an evening walk, and then we close up the evenings relaxing at home. I have a full tub for showers and bathing. I live in a suburban area for walking pets and am close to several dog parks.

“Heather watched my dog and cat at my house and did everything I requested. Both my animals and home were well cared for. She also provided photos during the time I was away. What has been very impressive to me is her excellent communication. I would definitely recommend Heather for pet care/sitting!”

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!”

“Amanda stayed at our house for 10 days, watching our special needs geriatric Maltese and provided excellent care. Amanda administered our dog’s medication 4x per day and cleaned up numerous accidents due to our dog’s anxiety. Our dog wears a belly band, so she also had to bathe him frequently. She followed my multiple pages of instructions and provided daily updates. Amanda also left the house spotless. We really appreciate all of her hard work and dedication to our dog. We would definitely have her care for him again!”

“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!”
