“Thank you so much to Kayla for taking care of Clio in her home while I was away. I truly appreciated her genuine care and easygoing nature -- I felt much more at ease. Communication before and during boarding was solid. And it's a bonus that Kayla lives so close to where I do, meaning the kitty didn't have to endure an extended car ride. Thank you again!”
“We just moved to Detroit and we needed a dog sitter ASAP so we turned to Rover. We used the service in our prior city and found a good reliable sitter. We lucked out again with Theresa & Adrian. They took good care of our goldendoodle. If they are available, we will definitely use their services again.”
“I want to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such great care of Donatello! When we adopted him we had already had a family trip planned. We were nervous to find care for him but Anthony took it on with ease! We got so many pictures and videos we felt like we knew where he was at all times and we could see he was enjoying his puppy buddy. Would highly recommend Anthony!!!”
“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“From our initial meet and greet to pick-up, Aunt Patti made us feel like we were a valued part of her family. Patti is a pet parent dream. You instantly could tell how much she loves dogs. Well stocked with toys and treats, Patti made sure my pet felt at home. Patti asked all the right questions to make sure my pet would be following the same rules we've set at home. She also made sure her yard was safe and secure for a small dog. Garvey will be returning to Aunt Patti's soon!”
“Jess boarded our pocket bully over the Christmas holiday. She was Amazing. We received daily pictures and updates on how our pooch was doing. I highly recommend her services . Very professional.”
“Sofia, thank you so much! Sofia was fantastic. Communication was perfect, and much appreciated. We had a good meet and greet to start, which led into a very comfortable and fun stay for Ara. The pictures said it all, I coudl see my dog smiling in every photo as she was so happy. When a pet owner is away for 8 days for work, it precisely this that makes it a tad easier. I would highly recommend Sofia, and hope to have Ara stay with Sofia again in the future.”
“Whitney and Samuel took excellent care of Kodi! He was so happy with them. They sent pictures and gave updates. I will definitely book with them again!”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“Vanessa was great with my dog Ivy. She made me feel comfortable leaving my dog for the first time and my dog took to her right away. She sent me pictures and updates everyday letting me enjoy a relaxing vacation without worry. I will definitely be using Vanessa every time I need a dog sitter!”
“Beverly took wonderful care of my Frenchie. She was quick to make Cookie feel right at home. Sent a lot of pictures and videos. There is always some anxiety when having someone care for your pet, but I knew within an hour my Cookie was in the right place. I would recommend Beverly to anyone who needs pet care and sitting services. So much better than a kennel. Your dog will be loved and will gets lots and lots of attention and love all day and all night.”
“David did a fantastic job watching our lab. He communicates very well and Lulu was obviously enjoying her time there. We will absolutely use David again. Highly recommend!”
“Luna LOVES going to Lauren & Kevin's. As soon as we arrived she was so excited to see them, she jumped to give them both kisses then immediately started to play with Chani. I always have piece of mind when she's with them.”
“We read great reviews about Nicolle and they were not wrong our mocha baby loved her and she made us feel at peace that Mocha was in good hands. Thank you to Nicole and her family”
About: 🇺🇲 Detroit My friends call me the "animal whisperer" because I always seem to be rescuing and finding homes for strays. I love animals so much and would treat your pet with the same love and care that I show my own. If I don't have to be somewhere you can find me at home with the pets or out in nature. I love going for walks! I care for pets like they are part of the family. I live in a great neighborhood for walking with two fantastic parks nearby. My cats are friendly and respect the space of other animals. Your pet will get lots of trips outside and all the chin scratches they want.

Mitchell always has a great attitude and energy coming back from stays with Jess, meaning he had a great stay =). Jess continued to meet the high expectations she sets for herself ever since Mitchell's first visit. We will continue to seek out her services when needed!
Carson was so great to my Jackson. He took great care of him and made him feel right at home. Carson sent great communications before and while I was away. I felt very comfortable leaving Jackson with Carson and will be so happy if he is able to keep him any time I need to be away.
5/5, 10/10, A+ care from Aaria! I had boarded my 7 year old anxious rescue with her and she was extremely accommodating and even on a shorter notice. He was very comfortable with her and at her place, she also kept up great communication while I was out of town. I will absolutely be going back to her if I need care for him again! I can’t recommend enough, she provided such great care for my dog! :) Thank you agaiN Aaria!
Vanessa provided fantastic care for our dog Sox over the weekend. He came home happy and calm. She communicted with us regularly, sent pics and took him for regular walks. Vanessa's home is well kept and dog friendly. She was able to accept our request on short notice. We'll be back.
I had a wonderful experience with Crystal and Ambria . They were professional, kind, and treated my dog like their own. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, well-cared for, and clearly enjoyed their time. I highly recommend both Crystal and Ambria to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter! Just to add…. They went above and beyond while caring for my dog, who has some medical issues that require extra attention. They followed all instructions carefully, gave medications on time, and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. It was such a relief knowing my dog was in caring and capable hands.
We left our dog Rory in the care of Miranda and Cameron for over two weeks while we were away on vacation. They provided us with updates on how she was doing while away, and they were also able to deal with a couple health issues that our dog was dealing with at the time. When we picked up Rory, it was easy to see that she was well taken care of in Cameron. We would definitely recommend using them for your dog sitting services and we look forward to reaching out to them the next time we need a dog sitter as well.
Madrona was everything a dog momma could ask for! She was very attentive to banjo and what he needed and banjo come back to me after the 4 days boarding super happy and tired. She communicated with me as much as I wanted and I never worried how banjo was doing. Would definitely book again! People tend to thing my big baby is scary but not Madrona she fell in love with him just as much as i did and made me feel super comfortable from the moment I dropped him off! If you’re in the Detroit area please go to Madrona for all your dog sitting needs!
