About: I’ve had a cat my entire life, growing up I had 2 family cats and they were nothing short of amazing. In college I decided to get a kitten to keep me company and she has been all over with me including moving 5 times, she is a sassy calico and is about to turn 12. Recently I adopted a kitten, a gift to myself for completing my masters. He is a male tabby and probably one of the most sassiest and hyper cats I’ve ever been around, he defiantly keeps me on my toys requiring lots of play to keep him out of trouble!

About: I’ve worked with the kittens, cats, and elderly felines of family and friends for many years. I’m familiar with best play methods, how to carry cats properly, and administering medication if needed. Both long hair and short hair breeds do well in my care.

“Chris did a fantastic job caring for my two cats. He was reliable, thorough, and sent detailed updates with plenty of photos at every visit. He clearly spent real time playing with them and getting to know their personalities, and he even helped with a few things around the house without being asked. I came home to happy cats and everything in great shape. I’d absolutely book Chris again.”


About: I have had cats since I was 7 years old. I grew up on a farm with TONS of cats. I have experience giving shots and medication to cats young and old. I am patient and understand that not all cats love to cuddle. I am happy with a kitty on my lap, but happy with just talking kindly to them as well. I have been cleaning litter boxes for over 15 years, so nothing scares me!
“Barbara is amazing and very clearly an animal lover. She responded right away, was very personable, took care of my friends and sent many pics to put me at ease they were well. I booked the drop-in visit because an already lengthy trip was doubled and they had run out of supplies. Barbara brought litter and food she had at home because she cares for strays, true compassion for all animals. Besides the many positive reviews she obviously does this a lot as she was already familiar with my complex from walking some neighbors dogs. Very highly recommended, I will request her services again for sure. Thank you Barbara, you're great”


“Maria is amazing, she is very responsive and she always sends Live Photos and videos of our cats. We’ve had her watch them several times now and have always come home to happy and healthy cats.”
About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life, I can't get enough ❤️ I have been a foster mom for 3 different rescues over the past 10 years, helping many different dogs prepare for their adoptions and transition to their new homes. I have experience with different ages, health conditions and personalities. I am very observant and patient, I err on the side of caution as you can never be too safe! Dog sitting is my full time job, so I am able to tend to your pup(s) consistently and provide a clean and safe home environment. Stays are limited to just 4 few spots, in my quiet, spacious home. Pups have unlimited access to my huge fenced in yard, with plenty of new smells and places to explore! I do not crate them unless it is necessary for meal times, rest, etc. They will be treated like family while they are here, with social time as well as one on one attention. If your pup matches with the group, they will have lots of play time to burn off their excess energy too! I will also send pictures and videos, as much as your heart desires, so you can be at ease that your dog is happy while you are away! My business is also privately insured.

About: I have been working in the pet industy for 10 years and I am pet CPR certified. I have taken care care of pups of all ages, all different kinds of animals, and have had many pets of my own. I currently work at a restaurant so may be gone here and there. My pups are home for you friend to have some company while I'm gone! I do not have a fenced in yard, but can leash walk anywhere. Pets can free roam inside my house, otherwise I can care for pets in their own space.
“We are very happy that we had Kayla care for our cat when we were away. We enjoyed her daily reports and could tell that she enjoyed interacting with our cat. We would book her again.”

“Cassandra is awesome. We are visiting and had no idea what to do with Gordo since we were afraid to leave him in the hotel alone and wanted to make a cubs game. We contacted on short notice but Cassandra responded quickly and took great care of our fur baby.”


About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.

“We’ve been here with our 2 Great Danes/huskies (boarding and daycare) and both times they’ve come back home happy and tired from day(s) of running and fun (: exactly what they need. Will absolutely use again in the future!”

“Danielle is AWESOME!! Roxy had a great time with her and her dogs and kids are amazing! She sent me photos during the day and let me know how Roxy was doing. She takes her for nice walks and gets plenty of exercise and fun. I'm super happy with the care Roxy gets at her house. Thanks!”


About: I'm an energetic person who enjoys being with dogs. I pay close attention to detail and I am always willing to engage in activities to keep your dog busy but I also know dogs need some down time as well. I stay at home full-time so I will be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and play time in the backyard. I am currently a dog daddy to a Chihuahua named Lucy. She'll be 1 years old on November 1st. She's very loving and friendly dog. I have 7 years of experience. I don't mind taking your dogs or puppies out for walks instead of just staying in the backyard. I will take good care of your beloved pets as if they were my very own.

“Tom looked after my little pup snooper for a few hours and snooper was calm and happy when I picked him up. I appreciate how prepared they are.. it really conveys another level of care for our pups. We have been there a couple times when in town, and I appreciated their flexibility because I didn’t know how long I would be away. Definitely recommend. Thanks Tom (and debbie)”

“Ashley and her family are amazing. She keeps me informed with how the day is going and is very welcoming. She is so flexible and willing to follow your dog’s schedule. She sends pictures daily which is awesome to see. When I drop Willis off at her house, he is so excited when she opens the door and loves to see her. I am so glad we found her and will continue to use her as long as we need puppy care. Thanks for everything you have done and are doing!!!! <3”

“Thank You Kim for your help and guidance. Bailey loves going with you and I do believe she is learning things by you. She is much more calm, relaxed, and attentive. She shares more with her sister since she has been with you and seems to have found her nitch in our family better. You take care of her like family. I can't imagine taking her to anyone else. Thank You Again Kim for being there for Bailey and us :-)”

“Kim is patient and loving and Frankie enjoyed his long walk and time playing in the large fenced in yard. We are so happy that we found Kim to watch our puppy when we have family outings. Thank you so much!”

“Amazing! I had no worries all day about my dog as I was sent many videos and also text messages of updates for him! 10/10 would very much recommend! Thank you so much again!!!”

About: We've been bully breed pet owners for years, and I'm comfortable with pups of all sizes and ages. I've been hosting dogs, doing at-home visits and sharing lots of pup love for friends and neighbors for quite a long time. I'm currently working from home, and could easily fit day-time walks and at-home visits into my schedule. Feel free to let me know if your pup/s could use a day-time potty break, or even a quick walk to get their energy out! I have a fenced in yard at my home and space for a dog crate if needed. I'm comfortable with both small and large breed dogs, and would welcome opportunities to come visit your pup/s during the day to help stretch my legs, and theirs.
“Rusty has a wonderful, gentle way with dogs. Mine is an anxious, large 8 month old puppy. She warmed up to him right away and ran around in the large gated backyard, along with going to walks. I will definitely book with Rusty again and recommend him to everyone.”

About: Hello I currently own 2 dogs and 3 cats. My friends, family, and neighbors rely on me when going on trips to help out with their fur babies. Doing their feeding, taking them for walks, playing with them, giving them medication if needed or just keeping them company. I currently work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. To do drop in visits, or walks it’s also helpful that I’m home all day to keep an eye on your babies and play with them on my breaks. I have a fenced yard big enough for your pet to run around, or play with my dogs that enjoy company. Either your pet likes to play outside with toys or receive lots of cuddles, or walks. I do require a meet and greet before setting anything up to see if everyone gets along.

“I went on a last minute trip for my birthday and saw Elizabeths great reviews. I was gone for 5 days and not once did I have to ask Elizabeth if she walked Harlei my 5 lb precious Yorkie. This was my first time using Rover let alone having a stranger in my apartment or even giving someone my keys! I was very nervous but after meeting Elizabeth she even offered to kindly let me use her key box! Everyday she updated me with the cutest pictures and even went above and beyond my expectations of caring for my dog as her own. She even changed her pee pads and fed her and was very accommodating to the dogs needs. It was suppose to rain and she still found time to walk her for at least 35 minutes and sometimes even 50 when I don't even walk my dog that long! She's the best and I can't recommend her more to anyone! Definitely will book her again in the near future.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.
