About: Hello my name is Ella for short. My love affair with animals began when I grew up with farm animals. In my adulthood I always had cats and a dog. At one point the cat distribution system blessed me with 9 cats plus a dog. Currently I have a large dog, 2 indoor cats and 1 outdoor cat. I've been though obedience training with my dog so I am able to introduce those skills to your dog or help cultivate them if your doggie already knows some. Currently I work from home so my schedule allows for frequent pee breaks as well as long walks around the neighborhood and surrounding area saying hello to my elderly neighbors and kids. Your pet is allowed on all furniture and will enjoy comfy and large bed of his own but my doggie enjoys a cuddle and is happy to share his bed as well. In the colder months pets can realx next to wood fireplace. Kitty cats have their own space in my house filled with toys, things to scratch and beds to realx in as well as heating pads. Pets enjoy frequent belly rubs and lots of treats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for my older grandparents before and I’ve had my dog for 5 years now. I am experienced with dogs and also cats. I work full time at home so I am home a lot to take care of your animals if they need somewhere to stay! I have a dog who is a Labrador retriever who is very friendly with all animals and people! I have a fenced in yard. I will give them enough outside time along with enough potty breaks and always have water available to them!

“Traci was great with my dogs! They were with her for 4 days. Went above and beyond my expectations. I will definitely recommend and use her again.”

About: I've had cats my entire life, giving me a deep understanding of their needs. Over the past six years, I’ve cared for hospice cats and managed various health issues, including administering insulin and medications. Working from home allows me to provide constant care and attention, with plenty of toys and enrichment activities. My cozy home is shared with three friendly cats—two seniors (12 & 14) and a recently adopted 5-year-old—who all get along well with others. I’ve created hidey holes for shy kitties to feel secure. I maintain a clean environment, deep cleaning litter boxes weekly and scooping them twice a day. We have three litter boxes (one upstairs and two downstairs) and keep fresh water and dry food available on both levels. If your cat has specific dietary needs or a feeding schedule, I’m happy to accommodate that. Living in a quiet country setting, I can offer a peaceful environment. For adventurous cats, I have a pet stroller and can take them on walks if they enjoy the outdoors!

“Aryn and her space is wonderful! Kai plays with her children and other dogs all day and then comes home fully exhausted and content. SO grateful for her ease and flexibility too. Thanks Aryn!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have taken care of other people dogs for the past two years. I am a big dog lover! I am currently working over nights in healthcare so all day time care is perfect for me! Over night care is also good dogs will never be left home alone with someone home all the time :) I have a big fence in yard with three little dogs to keep your dog company! I have a four year old black pug, 8 month old corgie, and 9 year old mut. They are all super friendly dogs and love to play w other dogs.

“Fantastic servicr!! I've never had a dog sitter before, but Traci was Fantastic! She took care of my pup and helped work with her. I definitely recommend Traci, especially if you have a puppy.”

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have always helped my family take care of them. Bathing, feeding, walking, caring for any illness they had, caring for them when they were old and passing, etc. When I moved out on my own at 18, I got married. This is when my husband and I bought our first pet together. Over the years we have gotten more pets, and we now have 3 dogs and 9 cats. As you can see, we love animals and caring for them. We would love to help other families in caring for theirs as well. Along with all of that, we also have 4 children. We hope that we can work with you and your fur babies soon! I am a stay-at-home mom full-time. I am highly flexible with days and times and will definitely be able to work with your wants and needs. We have a large un-fenced yard. We have a leash in the yard and extra leashes for walking if needed. We have an extra crate in the home if it is wanted and/or needed. We have plenty of room both in and out of the house for comfortability and if they need some space alone. We also have friendly animals in the home for interactions and to make your dog or cat feel at home.

About: I use to work with kids so nothing suprises me and I'm very good under pressure. I always find another way. I love all animals I'll even watch your other pets. I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, birds, and etc just ask. I'm always willing to learn. I will also work with dogs of all kinds even special needs of any kind or just special stuff needed to be done with them. A month and a half after getting my puppy she jumped out of my sister arms so I had a energized mini aussie on my hands that had to wear a splint for her broken leg. I'm ready for any challenge I work 38/40 hour weeks so I would pet sit before my shifts; after my shifts. If in Pontiac I would also do it during my hour lunch if needed It’s been years since I was an “official” pet sitter but really whatever the animal needs I am willing to do. Every animal needs slightly different care

About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. As a child, I had pet sheep, rabbits, dogs, cats, and cows. As an adult, I have always had cats. My 20 year old long hair cat just passed away in January. It was heartbreaking. I miss him dearly. We loved our guy so much. In his last 5 yrs, I spent many hours catering to his elderly issues. Medications and night yowling were issues that I happily took care of as he lived out his twilight years. I have a soft spot for all animals as they go through all stages of life :) I work from home and set my own hours, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am open to many kinds of arrangements- one time sitting, a weekly routine, daily walks, weekends, etc. I am extremely fortunate to have a flexible schedule. My teen daughter and I live in a large 4 bedroom home, so we have tons of space to accommodate furry friends who need company. We do not have a fenced in yard, but our neighborhood is great for long walks. Our neighborhood has trails through the woods and a home owner’s association that maintains the trails. We have lots of fun walking the trails. I am an avid jogger/walker. I go out everyday, regardless of the weather. I have a very active lifestyle! We recently adopted a cat, but he stays in his own area on a different level of the house. He has claimed my daughter as his and lives in her room. When dogs come to stay with us, he typically stays in his room & pups never see him, although he has made friends with some of our regularly visiting pups 😊 I have a very flexible work schedule. When I do have to be away from home for work, I am gone about 2-3 hrs at a time. My daughter is at home often and also helps with pups. She is great with animals! We both like to take frequent walks throughout the day! In my home, I have a large open floor plan with tons of windows. During the day, I like to have pups next to me in my office, but some like to lay in prime viewing area of all the windows.

“I will definitely rebook Robyn in the future and felt very comfortable with my baby boy in her care! She sent updates and pictures and videos any time I asked and always responded to all my messages pretty instantly. Biggie gave her a giant hug and kiss goodbye when I picked him up. Thank you, Robyn! 🐾🖤”

“Krista was fantastic! So helpful in solving a food allergy issue with my dog. I will definitely have Krista take care of my dog again. I give her the highest recommendation!”

“Hello, Julie did a good job getting are high energy dog spike out for walks. She also made sure he had plenty of exercise and plenty of play time. In overall her place was really wonderful. She really accommodated Spike. The only problem that we wanted to address was that she over gave on the treats and the food! We want to thank her and her daughter again for watching Spike it was a pleasure doing business with you!”
