When we got stranded on vacation because of the crazy blizzard of 2026, Dylan came in for the save and agreed to board Rudy for an unexpected 3 extra days! What a life saver! Rudy enjoyed his stay and we’ll definitely rebook with Dylan in the future! Thank you!

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.

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: 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.

Abigail was the perfect fit for watching Scotch for a weekend! She was quick to respond, kept us updated with texts and pictures and took such great care of Scotch! She allowed a meet and greet prior to the weekend to put Scotch and I at ease. He was smiling our whole way home. We will absolutely use Abigail again and recommend her to anyone who wants to be sure to have a trusting and loving dog sitter!

About: I've had animals since I was little: hamsters, rabbits, rats, cats, and dogs. I've spent plenty of time around horses, as well. I've had a dog for the last 11 years but my parents are now watching her in Michigan, while I pursue beginning nursing school in the near future. I've worked in fertility medicine for the last 12 years, and I live in Beaverton. I work full-time in the medical field, Monday through Friday, from 8am - 5pm in downtown Portland, and will have more availability during the day after July 20th. I’m happy to accomodate your pets! Whether they need adventure - or someone to stay with them at home, i’m happy to help out with their needs.

She used features that I didn’t know existed with Rover. She’s is on top of her game and I would definitely use her again.

Alexa is wonderful! Honestly, she's one of the best pet sitter we've ever had. She came to our house to watch our 2 cats/ dear kitty friends, and she truly seemed to understand their needs and ours! She always did MORE than required, including regular communication, photos, and details that she'd only know if she was really spending time with them. We came home to a tidy house and 2 happy, well-fed cats. And when we got home from a long, stressful drive, we found the sweetest note about our kitties and a gift of homemade pumpkin bread! And, Alexa is smart, personable and energetic. We left feeling good about the woman we were entrusting with these small animals who trust us. I never worried about a thing, which for me, is an amazing gift. I missed our cats, but I never worried about them. For me, THAT is the very best recommendation I can give a caregiver. We will certainly hope she is available for every future trip we make.

About: I’ve had years of experience growing up with dogs and cats. I’m the person everyone calls when it comes to taking care of their pets. Whether that’s being asked to walk, basic training, feed, bathe, play or just a routine potty break… My first dog as a child was a cocker spaniel and was named Arie. He passed away from cancer at the age 12. I was the main responsibility of his care taking… from being fed, walked and groomed. Since Arie’s passing and after becoming an adult, I became a dog mom to a beautiful Great Dane by the name of Luna. She’s an absolute joy and is so smart. I take her health and livelihood seriously and provide her with a life that enhances her overall experiences. I started at home puppy training with her including commands that are in German. Playtime is an essential and so is fitness time. Currently she is spending time downstate with my mom in a loving home due to health issues. I would love to help other people in anyway regarding the care for their pets while they’re at home, at work or on vacation! I have an open schedule currently and am readily available to assist in pet care. Contact me directly to discuss a schedule that you’re in need of. I’m currently in an apartment that’s spacious and has a porch. The apartment has a pet friendly environment and vast areas for playing and walking (including trails). Certain items may need to be provided: water and feeding bowls, food, toys, treats, collar and leash, or anything that your pet is comfortable with. When it comes to your home, I’m sure you have everything that makes your pet feel at ease. If you need anything specific you can always suggest or ask.

About: I am a 30 year old college graduate and I have loved dogs my entire life. I was never allowed to have a dog growing up so I always asked my friends if I could hang out with their dogs whenever possible. I just honestly really love dogs and want to be able to hang out with as many as possible throughout my life. I interned at a Veterinary Clinic during my senior year of high school so I have become familiar with appropriate ways to administer medications, trim toe nails, and calm anxious pups. My availability is fairly flexible and I will always make time to take care of a pooch that needs it while their pet parents are away for whatever reason they have. My schedule can sometimes be unpredictable but I always do my best to communicate that with possible clients. Open communication is key for me to help you. If I’m in your home, I treat it like my own. I was raised to respect everyone and their belongings. Your pet’s safety is always my number one priority.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 11. I’ve been trusted with walking, feeding, bathing, as well as medication administration by family and friends. I work as a night shift nurse so my schedule can be a bit different, hectic, and sparse at times, but I’m still able and very much willing to give your dog the care, love, and attention they need and deserve! I can easily crate your dog if needed. I always check fences or fence gates before letting a dog outside. If dropping in for a house visit, I like to make sure the area is safe and secure - making sure your pup doesn’t get into anything they shouldn’t, such as trash bins, food on the counter, etc.

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.

This was our second time doing daycare for Ninja with Jered. Jered has taken really good care of Ninja both times. He sends picture and video updates and even takes him on a walk! Ninja looks very relaxed and comfortable at Jered's home and comes back happy. Jered patiently talked to me about some questions I had for a future boarding reservation and was kind enough to take his time addressing all my concerns. Overall very happy with his level of care and attention. Thank you Jered!

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.

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.

He was very comfortable in their home as proven by the photos they shared. We enjoyed a great day of golf and Gordie enjoyed a great day with his new friends!

About: I've grown up around dogs. My family rescued a dog when I was 8, that I took care of until I went off to college. He was an American bulldog that lived a long happy life. After college I rescued a sweet doggy that was badly abused prior to my care. He was an American Bulldog Mix that suffered from anxiety and some aggression. After he had passed away, I adopted Penny. A boxer, terrier mix. She's one and a half and a big lover. I have gained a lot of experience from caring from mid-size / large dogs all my life. I am often a dog sitter for my friends and family. I love dogs of all size. I have school breaks off, so I will have more availability during those times. I am a teacher Monday - Friday, so my current availability is Saturday and Sunday. During school breaks, I will have almost all open availability. Most weekends I spend with my puppy, either doing enrichment activities or walking in nature. I have a dog kennel in my yard and two crates in my home. I also have a puppy that loves to socialize. I often walk my 60lb dog, so I am comfortable with small dogs up to large dogs.

About: I have had pets since I was a small child and all throughout adulthood so have a ton of experience! Growing up we had a golden retriever (he lived to be 15) and then a mini dachshund. Currently, my husband and I have a cat, an American Hairless Terrier, a Wire-Haired Pointing Griffon and a Doberman Pinscher who are all very sweet and family friendly. My husband is also an AKC registered dog breeder and is the owner of Kyloe Legacy Kennels so I have experience with helping to raise a litter of puppies as well! I look forward to helping take care of your furry loved ones! I am currently home for the summer since I work in the schools as a speech-language pathologist. I have a 2 year old and an 11 year old at home who both love pets. Our oldest is away at college! I have a fenced in yard. We have lots of space for dogs to play and can walk them in our neighborhood. Your dog can be any combination of loose in the home, gated in the kitchen/dining area, or in a crate depending on the dogs needs throughout the day and night.

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!!

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.

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 volunteered with dogs since I was 11, lived with large dogs my since childhood, and have been working jobs in animal welfare for 2.5 years. Working in a pet hospital, dog rescue facility, and a county shelter gave me a lot of experience and professional training with handling dogs of all sizes safely, especially anxious dogs. I was trained to administer daily medications and even fluids as needed. My daily tasks were feedings, cleanings, walking, and playing with our dogs. I am free Mondays and Wednesdays. I work from 8am - 6pm at the shelter on Tues, Thurs, Fri and Sat. I would love to house sit for a night or two if this schedule can work around you and your animals. While checking up on your dogs, I can play with them until they’re tired out and teach them basic tricks and commands. I have experience with anxious and reactive dogs and will treat your pet with compassion, using positive reinforcements. I’m a patient pet sitter and would love to spend time with your dogs and cats. I’m a photographer, ask me about bonus pet portraits!

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.

About: I have had all sorts of pets growing up my entire life. I have been responsible for taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, turtles, and birds since before I can remember! I have never not had a pet in my home to tend to. I love animals more than anything in life and have a genuine passion for taking care of animals (: I currently work part time- mainly on the weekends so I am free most weekdays and am always flexible on the weekends! I have two dogs of my own, so I have experience gauging the specific time and needs of animals :) I have a dog and a crate trained pup of my own living on 4 acres of land for all sorts of animals to enjoy! I also have a lovely house cat and kitten who would love nothing more than to play with your fur babies, cat or dog :) Your animals will feel right at home with special companions to be accompanied by their entire stay! If they are not cat friendly, I have separation gates to accommodate :)

About: I’ve had years of experience growing up with dogs and cats. I’m the person everyone calls when it comes to taking care of their pets. Whether that’s being asked to walk, basic training, feed, bathe, play or just a routine potty break… My first dog as a child was a cocker spaniel and was named Arie. He passed away from cancer at the age 12. I was the main responsibility of his care taking… from being fed, walked and groomed. Since Arie’s passing and after becoming an adult, I became a dog mom to a beautiful Great Dane by the name of Luna. She’s an absolute joy and is so smart. I take her health and livelihood seriously and provide her with a life that enhances her overall experiences. I started at home puppy training with her including commands that are in German. Playtime is an essential and so is fitness time. Currently she is spending time downstate with my mom in a loving home due to health issues. I would love to help other people in anyway regarding the care for their pets while they’re at home, at work or on vacation! I have an open schedule currently and am readily available to assist in pet care. Contact me directly to discuss a schedule that you’re in need of. I’m currently in an apartment that’s spacious and has a porch. The apartment has a pet friendly environment and vast areas for playing and walking (including trails). Certain items may need to be provided: water and feeding bowls, food, toys, treats, collar and leash, or anything that your pet is comfortable with. When it comes to your home, I’m sure you have everything that makes your pet feel at ease. If you need anything specific you can always suggest or ask.

About: I have taken care of dogs for awhile not only have I watched them, but I have also owned them! I am perfectly fine taking them for walks I would really love that! Or just watching them for a couple of hours or for the night while the family is out! I have taken care of older dogs too! ( I am not having dogs at my house, app won’t let me update that) Now accepting overnights. I will be working days at my other job so I now have more availability for over nights if anyone is interested! I don’t have any pets currently due to the place I live at. When we had dogs we would always keep them on a leash so they don’t run away or go and randomly jump on other people. Let them out whenever needed and feed twice a day.

About: My favorite thing to do when caring for animals is going on adventures! I love being outdoors whether it's a hike, walk in a neighborhood, or just playing in the yard. Not only is it good exercise for the pups, it brings me joy as well! Before getting my own dog at the age of 7, I enjoyed reading books about all dog breeds and gaining knowledge! All of my neighbors, family, and friends had dogs and I loved being able to walk them, play with them, and snuggle with them (of course)! I've been a dog walker and long term pet sitter for family and friends. Along with that, I have administrated oral medications for a few animals. Once putting my dog down when I was 19 years old I became the go to dog sitter for friends and family, and I would love to continue that now that I am away from my hometown! I'm currently a full time student at NMU who has a love for animals and am looking for a small source of income on my down time. I am in class 3 days a week and also have a fur baby of my own to attend too. With that being said, outside of my class times I can be very flexible in walking or dropping in to treat your animal as if it’s my own! I will take your dog to nearby parks, and trails as my adventure buddy and make sure your dog is getting all the love and exercise they need, or I can stop by your home and give your dog the same attention that I would give my own :)

About: I am a 30 year old college graduate and I have loved dogs my entire life. I was never allowed to have a dog growing up so I always asked my friends if I could hang out with their dogs whenever possible. I just honestly really love dogs and want to be able to hang out with as many as possible throughout my life. I interned at a Veterinary Clinic during my senior year of high school so I have become familiar with appropriate ways to administer medications, trim toe nails, and calm anxious pups. My availability is fairly flexible and I will always make time to take care of a pooch that needs it while their pet parents are away for whatever reason they have. My schedule can sometimes be unpredictable but I always do my best to communicate that with possible clients. Open communication is key for me to help you. If I’m in your home, I treat it like my own. I was raised to respect everyone and their belongings. Your pet’s safety is always my number one priority.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 11. I’ve been trusted with walking, feeding, bathing, as well as medication administration by family and friends. I work as a night shift nurse so my schedule can be a bit different, hectic, and sparse at times, but I’m still able and very much willing to give your dog the care, love, and attention they need and deserve! I can easily crate your dog if needed. I always check fences or fence gates before letting a dog outside. If dropping in for a house visit, I like to make sure the area is safe and secure - making sure your pup doesn’t get into anything they shouldn’t, such as trash bins, food on the counter, etc.

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.

I've had a dog for the last 11 years but my parents are now watching her in Michigan, while I pursue beginning nursing school in the near future. I've worked in fertility medicine for the last 12 years, and I live in Beaverton. I work full-time in the medical field, Monday through Friday, from 8am - 5pm in downtown Portland, and will have more availability during the day after July 20th. I’m happy to accomodate your pets! Whether they need adventure - or someone to stay with them at home, i’m happy to help out with their needs.
