Shannon is top notch. When life happened for us and we were so nervous about leaving our high anxiety dog with someone new she took the task with calm and so much good energy and joy. Her patience, love for dogs, incredible canine environment made a difference. Shannon is incredible with daily updates and rest assured you can ease your mind when leaving your beloved pet with her.

This was our second time using Abigail for our pup. He immediately got excited entering her home again -- proof that he was showered with love and attention during his first stay. We will continue to use Abigail whenever possible and recommend her with no reservations!

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.

Had our grandma doggo for 3 days, arrived on time for pick up and did a great job keeping her busy for the weekend. Absolutely great pet hosts and will use them again in the future, they were able to be home for the weekend, took my old anxious girl on walks around Marquette’s best spots and responded to every message I had checking in on things. My dog has had trouble with being left alone in the past and they are able to accommodate her needs.

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 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. 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!

About: Hi, I’m Emma – proud cat mom and all-around animal lover, here to spoil your kitties while you’re away this summer! 🐱💕 I live with two cats of my own, so I totally get how special (and particular!) our feline friends can be. Whether your cat is the shy type who needs a gentle presence or a bold little lion who runs the house, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re gone. I’m available for drop-in or overnight visits—whether that’s feeding, litter box duty, playtime, or just hanging out to keep them company. I’ll treat your cats like my own, and I’m totally cool with quirks, cattitude, or surprise hairballs. No judgment here! If you’re looking for someone who truly gets cats and will care for them like you do, I’d love to help. Let’s chat! 🐾

About: I’ve been taking care of pets (including deer!) for my entire life. I have trained multiple dogs in both walking behavior and doing tricks for treats! I also love playing with cats and earning their trust. I am currently in online grad school while my wife supports us, so having a flexible job such as pet sitting is perfect for me! Since I am not working a conventional job, my schedule is very flexible to allow for pet care. The only time of day that may be difficult to accommodate is 9am-12pm since I have zoom in class sessions around then. But I am open for early morning checks ins and anything after noon. I currently have two cats that I love so much! We make sure to play with them everyday and give them the love they deserve.

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.

About: My entire childhood there was always a dog or two in the house. I grew up with 5 different English setters that I helped take care of as starting as young as 10 years old. Being the high energy dogs that they are, I became well acquainted with daily walks and lots of attention and care. Today I’m the proud father of a 3 year old golden doodle named Winston. Despite being a couch potato he also loves the beach, camping, and could play fetch until his legs gave out. I’ve been working for home for 5 years now as a project manager, which has allowed me to proved constant care and attention to Winston and my parent 3 English setters whenever they have been out of town. Living just outside of downtown Negaunee, my neighborhood is dog friendly and the perfect place for a walk. I also offer a medium sized fenced in backyard, which is perfect for fetch and play time. I work from home M-F, so I’m always home and available to provide care. I also have a 3 year old golden doodle that I’m caring for fully time each day. I have a medium sized fenced in back yard with a covered porch. It is the perfect size for short distance fetch and playtime. Plus the porch offers some shade from the sun if they enjoy sitting outside and people watching.

About: I have many years of experience taking care of all types of pets. I have had 16 different pets in my life, and pet sat over 15 times in the past year. For the summer this is what I'm doing full time. Starting September I will start up my second job at an elementary school as an after school care teacher so from 2pm-6pm I would have to be away from your pets, I will come right back as soon as i get off! I will take dogs for as many walks as your pets need a day, and will make sure I spend quality time with them and treat them as if they are my own. I have dog sat for someone who took their dogs on 4 walks a day and was very strict with how they care for their dogs and people who are more laid back and don't really have a say that much as long as they are getting proper care, so whatever you want me to do in order to keep them on their routine I can do.

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!

About: Hi! I’m Abigail, and caring for dogs is something I genuinely love. Whether your pup enjoys playing, exploring, cuddling on the couch, or simply having a calm place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. That’s why I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and take the time to learn their unique personality, routines, and needs. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who prefer a slower pace, I’m committed to giving each pet individualized attention and plenty of affection. My goal is simple: for your dog to have such a great experience that they’re excited to come back! I’d love to meet you and your pup and help make your time away stress-free for both of you. 🐶❤️ I work full-time Monday–Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM, and I’m available for pet care after work on weekdays and all day on weekends. Whether it’s an evening walk, dinner and playtime, or overnight care, I’m happy to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for while you’re away. Weekends are perfect for longer visits, extra play, and plenty of cuddle time I care for pets in a very hands-on, attentive way and always try to make them feel safe and comfortable, especially while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and reassurance. If pets stay in my home, I create a peaceful environment where they can settle in and feel relaxed. I stay observant of their needs and personalities, whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra comfort.

About: Any time spent in the company of a dog is time well spent. I have had dogs all of my life. Growing up, I always walked the neighbor's dogs and babysat their animals. I lived on a hobby farm for many years so I'm experienced in animal health. I love dogs and have experience with large breeds. My current dog is a 18-month old collie that weigh 65 pounds. I love the little dogs, too. My daughter has two pit bull rescues and they are so smart and sweet. There is a special place in my heart for pitty mixtures. I am retired so I have plenty of time for taking care of your animals. I am available 7 days a week with advanced notice. I have expertise in dog walking and teaching dogs loose leash walking. I am available for home visits for dogs and cats. I also own rescue budgies, chickens, and raise angel fish so I have knowledge of all animals.. I have experience with animal health.

About: I worked at a local vet clinic (2023-2025) as a receptionist and a vet assistant. It is not my chosen career path, but I did learn valuable skills and knowledge on caring for pets, especially ones with health concerns, as well as triaging for urgent cases and emergencies. I have taken training classes with one of my pups at home from beginner to advanced. I have experience with puppies,adults, and senior dogs, plus dogs with health issues. I have some experience sitting for cats, including kitties post-major surgery, and I grew up with cats who I had from the time they were kittens through to old age. I am comfortable with pets of all ages! I also grew up with dogs as big as Old English Mastiffs and as small as tea cup Chihuahuas, so I am comfortable with all sizes as well. I work full time, and my schedule changes week to week. I work anywhere from 5 hours shifts to 8 hours. I am unable to leave for lunch breaks or anything like that, so I am available for pets who are able to be left alone up to 8 hours on days that I work. I do get two days off a week, and those days I'm available all day and can adjust my routine and schedule around your pets! I have two playful pups at home that love to meet new people and dogs! Every 4-8 hours they go on potty breaks in the yard, which is decently big for running around. They go on 30 minute walks almost every day and a special hike or activity at least once a week. Caring for the pups is split between my boyfriend and I. While no one is home, my pups have free-range of and kitchen with all doors closed throughout the day. They always have access to toys, fresh water, and couches/dog beds to lounge on. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture and sleep in our bed with us at night, but we have two dog beds available as options. We love to give a couple treats/snacks throughout the day as well! I really enjoy making the time spent other pups fun, so they can feel as relaxed as possible while their people are away. As a pet parent myself, I respectfully follow all of my client's rules and what is required regarding their pets and home.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with different energy levels, personalities, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and great at following routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and administering basic medications. I’m comfortable with puppies who need structure and training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who need extra patience, gentleness, and consistency. I truly focus on making pets feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away! Pet care fits well into my daily routine, allowing me to be flexible and attentive. I plan my schedule around walks, feeding times, play, and check-ins so pets get consistent, unrushed care and attention. I prioritize safety by following all instructions carefully, keeping pets in secure environments, and monitoring behavior closely. In a client’s home, I respect their space while maintaining routines. I ensure leashes, doors, and food are handled carefully, and I’m always alert to signs of stress, illness, or discomfort.

Animals have always been a huge part of my world—and with two cats ruling my home, being a “cat mom” isn’t just a title, it’s a core part of who I am. This summer, I’m available to help you care for your furry companions—whether that’s dog walking, drop-in visits, or just spending quality time with your pets while you’re away. I’m here to give them the love, attention, and snuggles they deserve. No mess is too big, no personality too bold—trust me, I’ve seen it all and love them all. If you’re looking for someone dependable, loving, and totally pet-obsessed to care for your animals this summer, I’d love to connect! 🐶🐱💕 I am a teacher with full summer availability! I am available to walk, drop-in, or overnight pet sit at any time, and day of the week! Safety is my top priority, and I am here to safely cater to all your pets needs! I will walk your pet, give them regular potty breaks, and willing to administer any medication if needed. I will be sure to practice proper leash practices while out of the home!

About: Hi! My name is Katelyn and I love working with all kinds of animals! I volunteer at the Animal Humane Society in Coon Rapids as a Animal Care Assistent where I walk, engage, entertain, and comfort dogs of all kinds and sizes twice a week. I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies and chickens my entire life. I just enjoy being able to give animals the entertainment, exercise and love that they deserve. I am currently a student-athlete at Northern Michigan University but am home for the summer in Elk River. I am available almost any day of the week and at almost any time to take care of your pet! My dog at home, Millie, is a very nervous dog overall so I am very patient and calm with her to make sure she is comfortable. I know when she wants to be left alone or when she wants to play or be pet. My cat is very independent but likes to be around people if he is not sleeping. He doesn’t love to be picked up or pet a lot so I just enjoy when he is present in the room.

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.

Dylan walked our dog Melon while we were out of town and she was staying with my parents. Melon is very strong and not the easiest dog to walk and Dylan had no issues with her. She was punctual and easy to communicate with. Thank you Dylan!

About: When I was young, I had always grown up around dogs & had familiarized myself with their behaviors and antics! As for hands-on experience, I have 2+ years of experience from working at two Animal Shelter’s! For a time, I was an “Animal Caregiver” which was essentially walking dogs, facilitating play groups, administering medications or vaccinations when needed, feeding them, enriching them & learning their behaviors! With the years of experience that i’ve accumulated over time, I have grown very comfortable around most dogs regardless of breed, size, age or needs! I am ready to take on any task thrown at me, and would love to work with you and your furbaby! I am currently working full-time at UPAWS (Upper Peninsula Animal Welfare Shelter) and would love to add in some extra time walking dogs, hanging out with cats, or just being able to help out my local community! This will especially help me gain more experience & confident in my caretaking abilites. Of course it depends on the pet and their needs, but I am open to accommodating for any behavioral and/or medical issues if necessary. I will spend plenty of time enriching them (Playing, walking, etc.) as well as encouraging their use of mental stimulation or training. Regardless, I will be sure to keep them on a consistent schedule and give them plenty of love!

About: I have taken care of dogs of all types and sizes since I was 8 years old. I have has countless walking and house sitting jobs since I was 14 and I was always the go-to person in the neighborhood if any dogs needed walking or any families were going on vacation and were in need of an in-home caretaker, or just someone to visit their fluffy friends during the day and walk and play with them. I am currently doing school and it is all online so I am very flexible and can cater to you and your pup's needs! I do have online meetings I need to attend but I can always work my way around my schedule to fit yours! I will be out of town from December 12th to 29th but after that, I am available except for new years! Weekends work best! I live in an apartment that doesn't allow pets (devastating I know) so my chihuahua jack Russell mix is with my dad in Michigan and I will not be available to bring your pet home. However, I am very active and have many friends and family here that would love to give your pet some extra love. I am also very handy at finding parks to walk in and fun activities for your pet and me to do, no matter how fast or slow-paced they like to live!

Shannon is top notch. When life happened for us and we were so nervous about leaving our high anxiety dog with someone new she took the task with calm and so much good energy and joy. Her patience, love for dogs, incredible canine environment made a difference. Shannon is incredible with daily updates and rest assured you can ease your mind when leaving your beloved pet with her.

This was our second time using Abigail for our pup. He immediately got excited entering her home again -- proof that he was showered with love and attention during his first stay. We will continue to use Abigail whenever possible and recommend her with no reservations!

Had our grandma doggo for 3 days, arrived on time for pick up and did a great job keeping her busy for the weekend. Absolutely great pet hosts and will use them again in the future, they were able to be home for the weekend, took my old anxious girl on walks around Marquette’s best spots and responded to every message I had checking in on things. My dog has had trouble with being left alone in the past and they are able to accommodate her needs.
