About: Hi, I am Bri! I grew up on a small dairy farm in Wisconsin and was raised with border collies. I have always loved animals. I currently have two dogs of my own, a 13 year old rescue Mini Australian Shepherd and a 7 year old Border Collie mix. I work from home which allows me to spend lots of time with my fur babies! I would love to spend time with your pet and would provide outstanding care! Our home in Skandia, MI is just 20 minutes from Marquette, so if you are traveling to the area and need dog care for just the day or longer, please reach out. I work from home which allows me to spend extra time with my own dogs! Your dog will never have to be at home alone. I work from home which allows me to spend extra time with my own dogs! Your dog will never have to be alone. We have a fenced in yard, fence is 4 ft tall so if your dog tends to jump fences, it won’t be a good fit.

“Heidi was amazing!! Our dog had such a good time with her. We really trusted that he was well taken care of and it was so good to have confidence in where he was staying.”

“Sara is so attentive and kind! Highly recommend.”

“Courtney was a wonderful sitter. I have very social cats but I could tell when she first met them that they’d be in good hands. She even fed my mice that I hadn’t previously mentioned (I recommend always telling your sitter in advanced if you have “extra” pets so they’re aware, though, that’s on me). But she was so friendly and easy to communicate with. I’d also hired her to water my plants but because of the rain we got she didn’t have to. The fact that she was willing to do so and asked questions to make sure she did things right was more than enough for me. My home was also exactly as I left it, so I really appreciated Courtney’s efforts. The cats were asking about her when she left so she must’ve done something right. 10/10!”

Mary S.

“Emily watched my two dogs while I was away for over a week and did a fantastic job! She was very reliable and punctual. It gave me peace of mind and I highly recommend her!”

Nicole W.

“Jennifer provided excellent care for my 3 cats, going above and beyond what was expected. I highly recommend her to care for pets and we will be lucky to have her if she’s available for our next vacation. Thank you Jennifer!”

Dan &.

“Ella accommodated my request with short notice after an unexpected trip. She took very good care of my dog and I would happily rebook her again!”

Matthew V.

“Ashleigh was so good with both my dog and cat! She was available last minute. When we needed her to come an extra time, because our plans changed she was more than happy to help. She sent me pictures of them at every visit! I will definitely be using her again!! Thank you so much Ashleigh❤️”

Samantha R.

About: I’ve had pets in my home and life for as long as I can remember, from dogs and cats to chickens and guinea pigs! I have experience caring for pets every size, age, breed, energy levels, and general care needs! I work as a tutor at a middle school, so I have full availability during the summers. I am absolutely a morning person, so morning walks/runs are built into my routine. Otherwise, I can be very flexible on times and locations of pet care. Caring for your pet within your home will include maintaining your pet’s comfort with their familiar environment. This includes playing with their own toys, eating their own food, and being within the home they love so much!

“Anna was very prompt with her meet and greet, which gave us a good feeling up front. She was able to win the dogs over very quickly which says alit about her demeanor with pets. Her responses to questions were comforting for a remote pet owner. I would certainly recommend her to friends.”

Rick B.

“Kendra is a wonderful petsitter. She was quick to initially respond to my request and she scheduled a meet and greet quickly to see if our job was a good fit. First impressions was that Kendra was kind and professional. She was reported her daily check-in and was patient with my kitty who was timid and hid from her until the last day. I'm thrilled to have found Kendra and will be reaching out for future trips.”

Camille H.

“Jessie did a great job looking after our cats while we were away! She was great about providing updates and was very prompt in all communication. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Jessie again in the future.”

Matt Z.

“Dylan took great care of my pups! They were happy and exhausted when I picked them up both days which was wonderful!”

Casalena B.

About: Hey there! I have taken care of my families and neighbors pets for years, and with help of a friend I realized I could save for graduate school by doing so. I have had puppies and worked with multiple at the same time, and in general I feel fit for whatever you’ll need me to do. I’m excited to start this journey! I’m currently working part-time over summer, and I would love to use my extra time during the weekdays or weekends to help take care of pets. I am generally free after 1:00 or 4:00 pm. I take my labradoodle on walks daily and make sure her food and water tray is full most of the time. She has an online training I have used a lot of the resources from to teach her new things, like patience! We also make sure to clean the backyard every few days.

“Fred seemed like a kind and gentle soul, and I was so comfortable leaving my pups with him. He provided updates and checked in regularly. I would definitely recommend Fred to others.”

Casalena B.

“Alexa responded to my request for a sitter the night before after 10pm! it really helped me out and my dog came back so happy! will be using her again!! thank you!!”

Myia R.

“Shannon was wonderful with Roux! While my husband and I were out kayaking, she took Roux on a full day of hiking, swimming, and relaxing at the park. It made me so happy knowing Roux was having her own adventure instead of waiting around for us. Shannon was kind, patient, and clearly enjoys spending time with dogs. That patience goes a long way with a curious, energetic 7 month old puppy. I felt completely comfortable knowing Roux was in such caring hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Shannon again.”

Sophia Z.

About: I fully believe in the power of pets as best friends and emotional support companions, and I want to help take care of your furry loved ones! In my role, I am all about communication first. I have around +2 years of pet-sitting/care experience with diverse dog breeds (chihuahua, pitbulls, schnauzer, mixed) and cats from family members and friends, as well as my own. I have experience doing drop-in visits (feeding, playing, grooming/cleaning, petting) and dog walking (around neighborhood or on pet-friendly nature trails). To further build my experience, I make sure that I have the client's detailed pet routine clearly documented before I accept a drop-in or pet walking visit. I will provide a full-time experience with your pets and make them feel cared for and loved. I will 100% use a baby voice for every sweet pup and kitten I play with! I am working part-time and I have a lot of time flexibility to fully care for your lovely pets. I am responsive while on the job and I try to be quick to accept/decline a new booking. While I can be flexible most of the times, I will let my clients know if there is a weekend or weekdays that I am unavailable. From start to finish, constant communication with my clients is always my top priorirty! I use patience, positive reinforcement, and plenty of attention to help pets feel comfortable and build trust. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions while keeping owners updated with messages and photos. While providing services at my clients' homes, I quickly learn the areas where the pets will be the most comfortable and avoid possible triggers. I am happy to adjust and, if requested by the client, to meet pets beforehand to build trust and make everyone comfortable during this experience!

“Bri was amazing with Stella!! She took her on a couple of walks, played with her indoors as well to help spend some of that Aussie energy. 🤩 We really appreciate you, Bri! Thanks again!”

Dawn N.

“Seriously great daycare. Sara is a top notch communicator. She gave little updates and pictures throughout the day that helped me feel at ease with my boys first day care.”

About: I have experience with animals of all sizes! Most important to me is that I provide a safe and attentive environment. For high energy dogs we have a large backyard and trails around our house! I am able to walk and/or run them if requested. For lazy dogs, we have lots of surfaces to lay on and love to cuddle! (Only if they want, of course) Other than running some errands or taking my son on a play date I am able to be home taking care of the dogs :) I will follow your requests for all types of visits. My main concern is that your pet(s) are happy and well cared for regardless of if they are in my house or yours.

“Shannon was absolutely amazing with my dog! She is incredibly kind, trustworthy, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands. She was very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy and well cared for!! I could tell that my dog absolutely adored her! I would highly recommend Shannon to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and compassionate to care for their pets!!”

Emily R.

“Jen walked my dog, Hank, morning and evening for a month while I recovered from surgery. She was always on time, cheerful and amazingly good with Hank. She did some excellent training with him (and me) - Hank did well, I’ll be hiring her to train me soon. She has my highest recommendation!”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, along with dog sitting for years on end. I enjoy animals of all kinds and currently own a cat and have also had a hamster. I am well rounded with most pets including aquarium animals! Typically I am available most mornings and day of the week. I work part time at the moment which gives me the freedom of pet sitting on my days off and certain times of day. I adapt to boundaries of any kind that are set for your fur babies! I know each and everyone are different and have their own specific needs met. Whatever is needed I can do.

About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I’m naturally nurturing and currently in school pursuing a career in nursing, so caring for others comes naturally to me. Since I was young, I’ve had a strong connection with animals and enjoy building bonds with pets of all ages and personalities. I’ve trained my pets and I currently have a cat and a dog of my own. My dream is to one day have a farm filled with animals! Spending time with pets is something I truly love. I would be honored to care for your furry family members and provide them with plenty of love, attention, and companionship while you're away. I am available Monday through Sunday various times and for overnight stays if needed. I am in the TC area until the end of August. I am happy to work with a family and all your needs for care. I always keep a pet's safety and care as my number one priority. My kitty and dog are my world, and I would treat other animals the same way I treat my own. I would be sure to keep them fed. loved and nurtured while they are in my care.

About: Furry Friend Care experience includes caring for cat(s) needing regular injections (subcutaneous), special dietary needs, and walking multiple dogs (familiar with each other). Light grooming, as well! As a free agent with Home bases in both Munising and Marquette, I have flexibility!Please specify what area/ community when you request services. We all have things we care about and want to ensure are safe and cared for when we're not around. I will give care and consideration to your fur friends, their routines and safety! My house sitting, boat sitting, fur friend care, & companionship extend from Marquette to Munising, and Chocolay to Big Bay! Care to be in your home, unless special conditions are made. My current familiar is a gorgeous grey Nebelung cat, adopted as a kitten 5 years ago. She requires a special ZD diet and biweekly subcutaneous shots. I have experience attaching kitty nail caps, when she was younger, with coordinated guidance while we were sussing out an unknown skin condition that was causing her to scratch aggressively, continually opening wounds, not giving them a chance to heal. Her condition is now under control, and she no longer requires the nail caps. Prior cats I have cared for have ranged from 3 lbs to 28 lbs! Our family pooch is an English Springer Spaniel, a unique tri-color showcasing beautiful Sable color. We welcomed him to our home 6 years ago. He is our 2nd Springer in 21 years. They are such a loving, fun, and gentle breed. I have much experience in connecting with and walking rescue dogs as well, mixed breeds including Sharpei, Pit Bull, Rottie, Jack Russel, Corgie, Labradoodles, Spaniels, etc. Sanitation is the start of keeping our friends safe and healthy; exercise and fresh air are necessary as well to have a happy, healthy home life. I can provide these things for your loved furry friend(s) while you are traveling or working.
