House Sitting in Swartz Creek

“Kaitlin is the absolute best! I was needing a sitter for my dog over Christmas and she came through for me! She was incredibly reliable and made me feel that my pup was in the best of hands while I was away. I would highly recommend Kaitlin to anyone needing a pet sitter. She is especially great with my big oaf of a German shepherd and handles his crazy energy very well!”

“Carissa took such good care of our fur baby when we were gone for 5+ days on vacation. We hate leaving her and she normally travels with us so it was hard. Carissa sent timely updates and left the house spotless, I would highly recommend her to anyone. 6 out of 5 stars if I could leave that review. Ask her about her pet portraits, they are amazing and she should be making that an option as part of her services :)”

About: I've had animals my entire life. Ranging from dogs, to cats to reptiles. Even chickens. I'd love to have to chance to take care of your baby! I'm open after around 5:00 on weekdays and then all weekend. I'll be open to go check on your pet whenever needed and give them a little extra play time too. I'd treat other people's pets the same way as mine, lots of love, playtime and snuggles. I've got two cats and they are absolutely spoiled beyond compare.

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs for at least 20 years. I love each as if they were my own. I also love turtles, and frogs but don’t have much experience with them. ❤️🐸❤️ I can do dog walking, and any other daily drop ins you may need. My schedule is very open for any house/pet sitting you may need also. I’d like this to be what I do for a career. I am willing to stay with your pet in your home and to walk your dogs in their favorite places. I want them to feel at home and comfortable.

“Yushonda went above and beyond the average expectation in pet care. She is a caring, detail oriented professional. A pleasant Lady to entrust your pet to. Thx!”

“Jessica is great! She has come to do dogs walks and dog sitting. She has amazing communication, sends pictures of my pups when I’m away and has the patience and good nature to earn the trust of my very nervous dog. My dogs were in great hands while I was away. Highly recommend her and hope she’s available in the future when I have to be away from my dogs.”

About: I’ve had the joy of owning cats and dogs for many many years. I have owned several varieties. I have also had the joy of taking care of other peoples pets. I currently work part-time and I can fit pet Care into my daily and or weekly routine with ease. I am available for more hours in the summer. I tend to care for others pets in their home or walking. I do have my own pets and I know it’s not best to introduce unknown animals.

About: No matter if your pet is big or small I will love them with all of my heart and spoil them. I believe pets need extra attention when their families are away so they don’t feel left behind. I work during the week but on the weekends I’d love to help you with your pet so you can take that weekend getaway you deserve! I’m a huge animal lover and this is honestly a great opportunity for me to get to love on as many animals as possible. I am very careful when opening outside doors to ensure everyone stays safe. I always triple check fences and keep an eye out for any potential risks.

“Mia was great! Having her stay with my cat allowed me to enjoy my vacation and not worry. She sent pics daily and assured me everything was ok. I definitely will use her again and recommend her to stay with your fur babies!”

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, with experience ranging from dogs, cats, and rabbits to ferrets, birds, hamsters, and all kinds of farm animals. I also grew up maintaining a 400-gallon fish tank that included a wide variety of fish and even small freshwater sharks, giving me a strong understanding of aquatic care. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have raised two very active 100+ lb German Shepherd/Lab mixes since they were puppies, so I am confident handling large, high-energy dogs. Despite my size, I am fully capable of managing and guiding strong animals safely and effectively. I am happy to assist with all aspects of pet care, including long walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I am also comfortable caring for pets of all ages and administering medications when needed (with prior instructions). Additionally, I have long-term experience(10+ years) caring for a Bengal cat with Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD), which has given me hands-on experience with specialized care and medication routines. I am currently a student at Central Michigan University and work part-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am available for both daytime visits and overnight stays in your home. I strongly believe pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, and I strive to maintain their routine while providing consistent care and companionship. I am always happy to provide extra references or additional information to help you feel confident and comfortable. I also maintain a respectful, non-judgmental approach to every home and will always leave your space in the same condition as when I arrived. So never be afraid of how your space might look!

“Ainsley did an awesome job with our 2 dogs! We will definitely be having her watch them again soon! She not only did a great job with the boys but the house was also spotless when we got home which is always the best! 12/10 recommend!”

“Thanks again!”

“Julie took great care of my three dogs while I was away on a work trip. I came home to happy dogs and got pictures while I was away.”

“Kiara was great! We scheduled a meet and greet and she was on time and professional. Then we were delayed in leaving and she was very accommodating. The house was left very clean and our puppy seemed very happy. Very regular updates with photos helped to ease our stress of being gone. Thanks again Kiki!!”

About: I have had my current dog for over a year and we are training to become a Therapy Dog Team. I previously volunteered at Capital Humane Society for 6 months as an Adoption Counselor. I am currently volunteering at Great Lakes Dog Rescue. Growing up I helped take care of the family dog. I took Veterinary Science at the Henry Doorly Zoo in high school and have a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Nutrition and Exercise Science. I have experience in training and know how to give dogs vaccinations. I am also happy to provide a basic behavioral profile for your dog for future sittings. I'm currently working part-time in a clinic. Typically scheduled Mondays: 1-7, Tuesdays 12-6, and Thursdays 1-7. Outside of that I have an open schedule and am happy to make time to take care of dogs. I live in an apartment and walk my dogs almost daily. More than happy to do dog introductions before sitting. If it’s a house sitting, more than happy to keep the dogs fairly separate and will take my dog to my apartment instead of leaving the dogs alone. I will never leave my dog and your dog alone in the house.

“Excellent communication and came out for a visit before our trip so she could meet our dog and see our house set up. Sent a daily update. Would definitely use again!”

About: Hi, I’m Alex. I’ve been caring for pets for friends and family for years — dogs, cats, and various small animals. I understand that pets have social and emotional needs as much as physical ones, and I make it a priority to give them attention, companionship, and care that matches their personality and routine. I enjoy spending time with cats and making sure they feel secure and engaged, whether that’s playing, cuddling, or simply being present. For dogs, I’m comfortable with both high-energy breeds that need plenty of activity and older pups who do best with a slower pace. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight stays, and I always aim to be reliable, attentive, and consistent so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are in good hands. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit in drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays throughout the week. I like to build my day around the pets I’m caring for - whether that’s making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need or setting aside time to play with cats and check in on them. Having that flexibility lets me give each pet consistent care without feeling rushed. In a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible so pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding on schedule, making sure they have fresh water, taking dogs out for walks or playtime, cleaning litter boxes, and spending quality time with them so they don’t feel lonely. I’m respectful of the home, keep things tidy, and make sure pets are safe and cared for until their family is back.

“Brittany is THE BEST sitter ever. She always goes above and beyond to make sure that all the animals are not just cared for, but adored. Every time we have had her she's gone the extra mile doing little things like cleaning a cage, giving them an extra brushing, doing an extra walk, whatever it takes to give the animals the best experience. They all love her and we do too. Cannot recommend enough!”

Claudia H.

“Carolyn is thoughtful and attentive to both her two and four legged clients. She checks in with us and sends pics of our pups. They love when she comes to visit and we feel so comfortable leaving them with her!”
