“Megan was awesome. There was plenty coordination on the front-end to do an intro to make sure the visit would be successful. We got regular updates about our pup even over the holidays and some great pictures to share with our family. And she and her family will definitely be a keeper for future visits. Absolutely recommend!”

“Cherisse was great, she gave me consistent updates with pictures and treated my dog like family. I was nervous leaving my dog behind but Cherisse always made me feel like he was in great hands.

Thank you again Cherisse you and your husband where great !”

“This was our first time using James’s for our fur babies and both Winston and Bella just fell into a routine and made themselves right at home! He did a great job entertaining both of our dogs at the same time and loving them equally. They have different foods, and he was able to take care of each of them as they needed to be taken care of. Also, he mentioned that he would keep in touch and send pictures. He absolutely did a great job letting us know how our babies were doing even within a couple hours of dropping them off, and letting us see that they were getting the love and attention they needed. I highly recommend him, and we will use him again in the future!”

I will definitely be rebooking Holli in the future and now class her as our families officially sitter for our girl! Highly recommend to anyone who needs a sitter for their beloved dog!”

“They were amazing to my kitty Buggy, super understanding of all my crazy asks and nervous jitters leaving my friend behind. They sent update pictures and even went to the store to pick up more food and treats because I had miscalculated how much she would need. I would definitely use them again.”

“They saved our Christmas! Our dog sitter for a family trip canceled at 9pm on Christmas Eve, and Shelisha responded promptly on Christmas morning, making it so we could take our kids up north to see their grandparents.”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. Ever since I was a kid, animals have been a big part of my life. My grandfather owned a farm, where I helped care for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, and many other animals. Those experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand the unique needs of each animal. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or simply relaxing with companionship, I'll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of attention. I'm dependable, responsible, and committed to keeping pet parents informed. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you'll always know how your furry family member is doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with kindness, patience, and respect. My goal is to earn your trust by providing a safe, fun, and loving experience for your pet while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to provide reliable, consistent care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I plan my day around each pet's needs and routine, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it's a quick drop-in, daily walks, or overnight care, I'm committed to being dependable and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Your pet's safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so they receive the best possible care. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment while following your feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any medication or care instructions. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a secure environment. During walks, I use safe handling practices and stay alert to my surroundings. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love, patience, and respect I'd give my own.

“Best cat sitter ever! DeDe kept up with Rivers food and litter but also made time to make River feel comfortable with her. She sent images every day to show us how our baby’s doing. I will certainly rebook her services again! ?”

“We have five cats, including a 14 year old who requires medicine twice a day. We were worried about who would be watching our cats and how they’d be taken care of. Bethany and Aaron were AMAZING. Aside from being very friendly and personable, I got several pictures and updates. Parker got his meds. The cats had people around. It was a great experience and, in the future, if we have to be out of town, I’ll check in with them before I consider anything else.”

“Joshua was great with our cat and did everything that I requested so our cat was cared for. He sent lots of pictures and notes. I would definitely recommend him to anyone and would book him again!!!”


“Ruth has been amazing the last two times she has taken care of my babies! Sends pictures and updates each time, makes sure they’re in a good spot before she leaves, and is very flexible and on time each visit.”


“Kylee is my absolute go-to to check in on my furball. She’s communicative, always on time, respectful, goes above and beyond, and my kitty is always a happy camper when I get home. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

“Couldn’t have been better. Very attentive; played with them, gave them their desert-churro-sent multiple photos, indulged my cats’ foibles and mine. Kept me from worrying about them so I could enjoy a couple days out of town.”

“Karla went above and beyond to take care of our two cats while we were out of town, giving me total peace of mind with timely check-ins and photos. I could tell my kitties loved her. Thank you so, so much! Responsible, trustworthy sitter!”


“This was our first time using Riley and she was fantastic!! Her drop in visits were punctual, she played with our dogs every visit and they loved her. She is very responsible and we would highly recommend her!”

“Yan is an AMAZING cat sitter! She kept in daily communication in a professional and upbeat way; it's such a relief to find a sitter who sends a detailed report with plenty of adorable photos. She very smoothly handled some hiccups when my lively kitties got into some mischief. She seemed to care for them in a way that really put me at ease. Would definitely book again!”


“Christina is very sweet and took the time to get to know our cats routine. Happy to find her to help take care of our sick kitty while we were out of town!!”


“Pennie was very professional at our meet & greet. Sent pictures of both my cats with updates. She also did additional things for me—getting mail & watering tomato plant.”


About: Since I’m certified as a veterinary assistant I am able to administer medications and take care of kitties with special needs. I’ve volunteered at the SPCA with cats and at my dog rescue job we’ve taken in kittens and cats before; which I also aided in caring for. I love hearing the purrs which tell me I’m doing a good job!😂

We got pictures throughout her stay and details about her schedule. He even taught her some new tricks. I’m so impressed! I would highly recommend Kenny!”

About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.
“Shelisha is such a kind person! We felt very safe leaving our 5 lb Shih Tzu with her while we went to a Detroit Tigers game. Her communication is excellent. She even sent us pictures of our Ruby while we were away. Very pleased!”

About: I been taking care of pets since I was 10 I absolutely love all animals I treat them has my own in a loving and caring way I’m a stay at home mom with big kids so I really wanted a past time to do something I love taking care of pets I do have a crate if needed and I also can support food and water plus a lot of time for love and affection for your furry babies
About: I have fostered for the SPCA since I was 12 and have owned pets my entire life. I have a passionate love for animals and recently discovered a new passion for pet sitting! I STRICTLY KEEP ONLY ONE PET FAMILY AT A TIME - so I can focus on their personal and familiar schedule, happiness, and safety. I ALSO WELCOME SPECIAL NEEDS PETS, as I have owned and cared for many myself. Keeping your pet is a privilege and brings me great joy, it is not a primary financial stream. (If you need a recurring or long-term sitter who will build a loving relationship with your pet, please contact me for discount.) As for my background and experience, as a youth, I began fostering animals for the SPCA at 12 years old, and then at 16 began raising and training guide dog puppies for Southeastern Guide Dogs. I have been awarded volunteer and foster of the year both by the SPCA. As I got older. I saw a great need for foster parents who could bottle feed abandoned puppies and kittens, could care for older pets needing extra time and expertise, and pets with a wide variety of special needs. After adopting several special needs pets who would otherwise have difficulty finding a forever home (the last two passed away last year), I found myself wanting to adopt every animal I fostered. knowing that wasn’t realistic, I realized pet sitting might be better outlet for me to direct my love for animals (Without the pain of not knowing if the pet I fostered would eventually find a loving home). And I have loved hosting happy pets ever since! My children are now in college, and after losing my precious older dog and cat a couple years ago, I now only have one cat we rescued during a storm. My ultimate goal is for both you and your pet to be comfortable and have peace of mind before and during the time you are away, and I strive to love and entertain them so much that they feel at home (or on vacation) until you come back for them. I work from home, allowing me to be available for your pet at almost all times - which is especially helpful with puppies/kittens, older, or disabled pets that need to be closely watched. (I have many years experience with disabled, sick or elderly pets). I am experienced with giving both oral and injected meds, expressions, helping them eat, exercise, etc. Because I only pet sit one animal family at a time, I am able to adjust to your pet(s) schedule. Whatever makes him/her most comfortable! I take the trust and safety of pets very seriously, only keeping one pet (or family of pets) at a time. I also document a daily diary of their experiences, and send pictures on a daily basis (unless requested otherwise). You can review the daily diary document (as well as information I prefer to obtain before pet sitting), in my photos section. This document includes the preferred vet and emergency center I utilize, although I am happy to contact your preferred vet if provided to me. I also have multiple friends who are veterinarians, and I never hesitate to contact them if I am at all concerned about any pet in my care. I prefer dogs be crate trained if they are young and active, but while I have a large double-sized crate, it is only used if we are all gone for a short time (for the dog’s safety and comfort). The rest of the time pets are welcome on the bed to sleep with us, on furniture, etc. If there is a reason the dog can’t be crated, please discuss it with me and we can come up with safest and best plan for your pet! I also have a room set up for pets in case they want to be alone or have quiet time. It is also helpful if you bring a blanket from home, so s/he is comforted by the familiar smells of you and their loving home!
About: I'm a certified pet sittier through Fetch Find and have over a decade of experience. I work with dogs, cats, and bunnies. I have experience with sick and anxious animals. My own senior cat is both and requires tender loving care to medicate. I'll bring the same love and patience to your animals that I bring to my own. I currently work from home full time. I have a semi flexible schedule and I'm available from 2pm-9pm for walks, drop ins, or anything your pets may need. I individualize my care based on what each client needs. That may look like giving your babies tons of attention or the space they need to feel safe. We can talk 1:1 to make sure your pets have what they need.
About: Growing up with multiple dogs, I've had the privilege of raising them from playful puppies to their senior years, witnessing their growth and providing love and care every step of the way.

What Sets Me Apart: Experienced in Senior Pet Care: I have firsthand experience with aging pets, including managing age-related health issues and ensuring their comfort and happiness in their golden years. Medical Care Knowledge: I have administered medications and provided the attentive care pets need during health challenges. Loving and Compassionate Approach: Each pet is treated as part of my family, with plenty of love, patience, and understanding tailored to their individual needs. Long-Term Commitment: My experience spans a pet’s entire life cycle, ensuring that I understand the evolving needs from youth to old age.

“We highly recommend Francisca. Our dog, Buddy had the best time with her. My children mentioned how calm Buddy was when we picked him up.(I don’t have to tell you other dog owners what a relief that is;). Francisca communicated well and sent pictures! Definitely plan to use her services again. Five Stars!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life in which I’ve been apart of their care giving and love. I adore animals more than anything and would love to help out other’s pets! I’ve had my Bella since 2020 and that’s when I really became a big part of animal care. I’m an upcoming college student who loves animals more than anything, I have a flexible schedule and will do everything in my power to meet you and your dog’s needs! I will meet any needs your dog requires and I frequently check food, water, bathroom breaks, etc. to make your dog as comfortable and loved for as possible.
“Joshua was incredible with our pup ! We had a very busy week & had to rely on Joshua to ensure our dog had some stability while we weren’t able to. We felt comfortable with Joshua entering the house with no one home & taking good care of our pup including feeding her after their walk. Thank you Joshua !”

“Kylee is awesome! I shopped around for a while and couldn't find the right match.My Sadie is very protective and she has been very sheltered so she doesn't care for too many people but she took to Kylie right away! she loves her! She is very prompt and very trustworthy ! She is capable of doing any type of service that you need! Even though I would like to keep her all to myself she could benefit other people as well! Highly recommended!”


“Ruth does an excellent job caring for my puppies! She is prompt in response to any communication about their visits or changes in my work schedule, adjusts her schedule when possible to take them out earlier or later, and is easy to communicate with. She’s been overly helpful today especially when I forgot to put the lock box on my door on the way out and had a full schedule at work, she even stopped by to get the key where otherwise my puppies would have been stuck with no potty or exercise breaks for hours. These two are full of energy so I know they appreciated the extra play time they got together today also! We are very grateful for Ruth and her excellent dog walking services.”
“This was our first time using Bethany and Aaron’s dog-walking service. During the appointment setting process, Bethany was very responsive and professional. She communicates well and often, so we know what to expect. When we met, our dogs warmed up to both of them instantly. I joined them on this first walk, and have nothing to complain about. They did great! We will use their service again for sure.”

About: I have always had an admiration for animals no matter the type. But for some reason the love that you get in return from a dog is just indescribable. I know that it is always a weary feeling to leave your babies in the care of someone else. But it definitely helps to know that the person caring for your pet shares the same passion that you do. I never thought that I would own small dogs but I am actually glad that I do have two Chihuahuas now because I can take them almost anywhere! There has been an occasional weekend trip where I haven't been able to bring the pups along and it just didn't feel the same having to leave them behind. So if you have to leave them, leave them with someone who will care for them just as well as their own! I definitely prioritize my pets before any plans are made! No matter the time of day, week or year. They are my fur babies and anyone that knows me will agree! Depending on the environment or location, I would definitely say to use a leash first and foremost. I would also like to know if you know about the other animals in the area, just to provide as much safety as possible.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a dog and two cats and honestly, I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry friend by my side. I’ve always been surrounded by animals, from family pets to farm animals, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors. Now that I’m a college student, I really miss having animals around, so I’m excited to share my love and care with your pets! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved! I am currently in a social work graduate program, so I am in an internship during the weekdays 9am-4pm. I can usually work around those times, and I try to be as flexible as I can, so please reach out even if my calendar says I’m not available! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with two friendly cats (who can easily be separated if needed), a screened-in patio perfect for lounging, and access to a dog park and safe walking trail nearby. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I’m comfortable following any specific care routines or instructions you provide, and I’m also very intuitive when it comes to understanding an animal’s needs and emotions. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to make them feel secure while you’re away, I’m happy to provide that love and attention.

Also I like to walk around lakes and natural trails so will have a lots of fun together.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, including family pets and those of friends, for the last 10 years.

I love spending time with all the fluffy friends! I work from home and am generally flexible with my schedule! Just let me know, and we can find something that works for all of us. I have a fenced yard and my friendly own dogs can keep your fur babies company. We can also separate them completely if you prefer. We have two sides of the house with separate entrances to the backyard.
About: I worked at an animal shelter for a 4 years- fostering litters of puppies and older dogs at my home. I’m currently studying Animal Behavior & Digital Cinematography through online classes; I am a Certified Vet Assistant. I have 2 friendly active dogs of my own as well!

I’m currently a part-time student and part time employee at a boarding facility. I go on runs, walks and hikes and would love to bring your pet for a stroll. I am also able to just hang out and spend quality time with your pup or cat if they have separation anxiety. I have a fenced yard and pool. If your animal needs to be kenneled, a crate will need to be provided. Three people in total live in my household, so someone will always be present to keep an eye on everything. Feeding will be done separate as a safety precaution and playtimes with my personal dogs will be monitored. I treat every animal as though they are my own; furbabies are exactly as the name suggests- babies!!

I enjoy feeding, socializing, and exercising dogs, even minor grooming such as brushing and nail clipping. I’ve traveled to North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania to care for dogs long term in their residences. I truly care for dogs as they’re such loving, loyal companions who deserve the same love and loyalty reciprocated. I also have 5 years experience of bird care! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to have plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m more than happy to discuss your needs. Caring for your pet in your home allows them comfort and a sense of peace that they wouldn’t have in a new environment. I respect your home as I respect your pet! I will always follow your rules and conduct myself in a professional manner. Your pet’s care is my #1 priority!

“Megan was awesome. There was plenty coordination on the front-end to do an intro to make sure the visit would be successful. We got regular updates about our pup even over the holidays and some great pictures to share with our family. And she and her family will definitely be a keeper for future visits. Absolutely recommend!”

“Maria took great care of my dog, Lexi-Saige, and my cat, Chip. They were treated fabulously, and Maria sent me pictures of them every day. It was nice knowing that they were in such great care; I had a family emergency out of town, and I didn't need an extra stressor worrying about my pets. I would highly recommend Maria. She is kind, gentle, caring, and keeps you well informed. Thanks Maria.”

“Cherisse was great, she gave me consistent updates with pictures and treated my dog like family. I was nervous leaving my dog behind but Cherisse always made me feel like he was in great hands. When I picked him up she had given him a bath and had a cute bandanna on him. I will definitely be contacting her again when I need a sitter. Thank you again Cherisse you and your husband where great !”

“I cannot express how amazing Mary is! She took such good care of my babies and kept me updated constantly. I was afraid of leaving my dogs behind for the first time but Mary just won us over from the second we did the meet and greet! She is so understanding and goes above and beyond for the pets she cares for. I am so thankful for the wonderful care my dogs received and I will definitely be a returning costumer!!!”

“This was my first time having a sitter for my new adopted pup. I was super nervous and held off travel until I found Kenneth. He scheduled a meet and greet prior to booking which I really appreciated. I felt super comfortable where pup was going to be staying and he also showed me around the neighborhood where he walks the pups. Also, took pup to the dog park to play with others dogs. He sent photos and videos of my pup having the time of his life. That really made me happy and comfortable knowing Rocco was in good hands. He also worked with him on some commands and he came back super excited and well mannered. Definitely booking with Kenneth again.”

“Holli is amazing!! She took care of our mush like she was her own and our pup has come home happy and healthy! Holli sent me daily pictures and updates to make sure we were aware of how settled our pup was…. And she certainly enjoyed her time with Holli and her family! I will definitely be rebooking Holli in the future and now class her as our families officially sitter for our girl! Highly recommend to anyone who needs a sitter for their beloved dog!”

“They were amazing to my kitty Buggy, super understanding of all my crazy asks and nervous jitters leaving my friend behind. They sent update pictures and even went to the store to pick up more food and treats because I had miscalculated how much she would need. I would definitely use them again.”
