“Great experience! Katie was sending us photos and updates of our furr baby daily! She treated our dog-Lesha like one of her family. Absolutely recommend and will definitely rebook if we need to!”
“Will definitely be returning! Sent so many picture updates, played with my dogs, brushed them, spent quality time with them and always answered my messages at any time, day or night.”
“Guinness loves coming here. He enjoys the other dogs in the house and the play time in the backyard. He always comes home exhausted from all the fun he’s had with Tonya.”

About: I've had dogs all my life. We just just put our dog down after 12 years from being raised as a puppy. Our family isn't ready for a new dog yet, but we love the company! As a teacher, my summer is dedicated to being home and active! I am looking forward to a summer filled with backyard play and plenty of attention for our guest pups. Since we’ll be home the vast majority of the time, your dog will have constant companionship. While we might head out for the occasional short day trip or camp drop-off, our schedule is primarily centered around being home, making us very flexible for drop-offs, pick-ups, and mid-day belly rubs! Your pup’s safety is our top priority! We have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under constant supervision. Our home is a family environment with three kids who are taught to be gentle and respectful with animals, so we do require that any guest dogs be kid-friendly. Inside, we have stairs, so please let us know if your pup has any mobility issues or needs assistance. We are also happy to crate your dog for meals or naps if that is what they are used to at home. Since we currently have no other pets, your dog will receive 100% of our attention and love during their stay
“Lauren and Kevin & their lil nephew were loving to Lola. I glad she was comfortable in their home with their own pets. I always worry about that because Lola is use to being the only dog in the house. Upon pick up Kevin said they really loved having her and said she was really good so I was so relieved to hear that when you are leaving your pet with new people for 7 days. Thank you again for all the love and care you provided Lola while we were away!”
“Angelique was fantastic! I got regular updates with photos and videos, and it was crystal clear that my dog, Arlo, had a great time with her. I will be booking with her again!”
“If you have a small dog, Beverly is unreal. My frenchie loves going to her home. She is given so much love, care and attention the entire time she is there. She has her own bed and rest area during the day with lots of toys. She never goes in a crate or cage, and plays all day long. At night Beverly lets my cookie sleep in the bed. If you are reading this go no further, Beverly provides unbelievable care. I would never consider an overnight kennel and once you try Beverly to babysit you wont either. Thank you Beverly for caring for my baby.”
“Jordan was great with my dachshund. I did not ask for photos or updates, but when I did inquire, she was quick to respond and send me a picture that showed how calm and content my dog was. My dog is spoiled with a couple of bad habits and she seemed to have no issues taking care of him. I recommend Jordan and will use again if needed.”
“Kim is wonderful to our girl Isla! Isla just fits right in with the pack and has so much fun. Kim is always doing something fun with her, and always gives her the best care. She’s our go to sitter and we’re grateful to have found her, we will use her until the day she decides to not dog sit anymore.”
“Anthony did an outstanding job watching my dog diego! We came in for a last minute trip with family, he updated me with photos very frequently so I felt comfortable knowing he was safe and having a good time. Highly recommend, Diego is now sound asleep on our way back home.”
“5 stars for Lea and her family! Ellie had such a great stay there while we were away on a camping trip! Very communicative, easy to arrange pickup/dropoff and super friendly family overall. We will be using Lea in the future for sure. Thank you Lea!!”
About: Hi! I’m Nicole. I’m a retired professional petsitter/dog walker of 10+ years and have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages. I’m comfortable giving oral medications, insulin shots, and catering to special dietary needs. I’ve been working from home recently and would love to have some dog friends to keep me company. I own my home and have a HUGE fenced in yard that is great for fetch, and dog friends are welcome on the furniture. Dogs that love to go for walks are a plus because honestly, I feel weird going for walks without one lol. Dogs must be cat friendly! I’m a homebody by nature and rarely am away from home for more than a couple of hours, if I do go out I typically will separate my cats and my dog friends as an additional safety precaution. I don’t crate dogs unless it’s a typical part of their routine. I’m unable to accommodate dogs from multiple households.
About: For over 25 years, our home has never been without a dog. Sadly, we had to say goodbye to our beloved boy, Blue, this past year, and we deeply miss the daily joy and warmth a pet brings to a household. Right now, our family is in a transition period as our daughter heads off to college to play softball. Before we commit to a new pet of our own, we want to see how her game and travel schedule unfolds so we can ensure we have the proper time and dedication a permanent dog deserves. Caring for your pet gives us the wonderful opportunity to welcome that familiar canine joy back into our lives, while giving your dog a warm, experienced, and incredibly attentive "home away from home" where they will be treated like family. Since I work from home full-time, your pup will have constant companionship throughout the day. I am easily able to step away for regular, timely bathroom breaks, and I love using my work breaks to check in on them, stretch our legs, and truly enjoy their company. We have a fully fenced-in backyard, but please note that one portion of the fence in the back is a bit lower. Because of this, we want to ensure your pup isn't an active "fence-jumper." However, safety is my top priority! My work-from-home setup gives me full visibility of the entire backyard while I work. If there is ever any concern, I am more than happy to accompany your dog outside every time they need to do their business. Daily Routine & Preferences Once the workday wraps up, it’s all about the dogs—longer neighborhood walks and dedicated playtime are always on the horizon! I am incredibly comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic young pups to gentle seniors, provided they are fully house-trained.
“Our golden doodle Miles had a great time with Amanda and we were able to enjoy our three days away knowing that he was in such good hands. Amanda sent us numerous pictures and kept us I up to date on how he was doing. We' look forward to having her care for our pup when we travel again.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for family members, friends, and neighbors since I was 16. They have relied on me to walk, bathe, and feed their pets. Feel free to message me if you have any questions. I am currently working from home right now, and I am in school online, so I will have plenty of time to love and take care of your babies. Trips to the dog park will always be on our to-do list to have some fun! I also have a pup loving boyfriend who would also be happy to keep your baby company.

Cat caregivers near you - Riverview
About: I've loved cats ever since I was a little kid. They're so much fun and have such big personalities! I've cleaned litter boxes my whole life, administer medication for my own cat, and have raised two long haired fur babies.
“Kelly was incredible! She responds quickly, gives great updates, as well as sends photos. She’s friendly & took great care of our cat! We will only ever go directly to Kelly in the future. Five stars!”
“Erin was phenomenal with my cat. She had a google form ready to gather as much info as possible about my cat, very well prepared. She took the time to play and give him love while I was away, even provided many photos and a thorough description of how the visit went! Would highly recommend for anyone who needs someone to watch their pet(s)!!!”
“Was a great person to have checking on my cat while I was gone. She gave daily updates along with photos. Always played for a bit and made sure her litter box and food was replenished. Will definitely recruit Gabrielle again when I leave town.”
About: I’ve had previous in home pet sitting experience watching a coworker’s ‘babies’. When they went on vacation I stayed with their pups for a few weeks and looked after them. I also tended to their plants and made sure to clean up around the house prior to them arriving back. The oldest dog had a specific soft food diet due to his bad teeth and the other needed frequent play, snuggle, and potty sessions because she was a smaller dog. They had a long-haired cat that I watched as well (which I found out I’m allergic to). I don’t mind taking care of cats as long as they are short-haired or hairless. I can also stop by to feed, walk, and let your dog(s) outside to potty. I’m available for dog walking and drop-ins weekly! I've done lengthier stays while pet parents have been out of town on vacation. Some previous clients also had a cat that I would take care of as well. I love to spoil animals rotten, so if I am stopping by to let out your pet(s) I will make sure they receive tons of love and treats!
About: I have volunteered at my local animal shelter for 2 years, looking after the cats and kittens. My job was to acclimatize the newbies and overall provide them with lots of love and care. I also regularly cat sit for two different owners. Overall, i’ve seen many different personalities and am very capable of providing a comforting environment for your babies while you are gone.
“Emily is an amazing caregiver for our kitty! Very glad to have found her. She paid attention to my kitty's unique personality and used her time to make a real connection with her, which is a special thing. 🥰 My cat warmed up to her quickly and loved all the TLC she received while we were away. Playtime, brushes, cleanups, it was perfect. I would definitely book with Emily again in the future. Thank you for everything! ✨”
“Yvonne was amazing. My cat Ares absolutely loved her. Even when he first met her, he ran up to her and rubbed on her!! Lol She sent me photos daily of them playing together, which I totally loved. She feed him and changed his little box while I away. She even switched up his food because he dislikes eating the same food everyday. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. She deserves 100 stars!! I will definitely book her again!!”
“Thank you, Donna! First gravitated to Donna’s profile because she seem to be a cat lady! ? Lots of dog watchers but we were concerned to find just the right person for our our elderly crabby cat Tobey. Donna quickly fell in love with our old guy, redefining him a polite gentleman ???. She sat on the floor every visit and loved on him and even brought him a jar of catnip! She was trustworthy, dependable, experienced with elder cats, and very graciously followed all of his finicky instructions on fussy eating habits (clean dish, variety fish of the day preferences, and litter box tidy habits). Donna is a wonderful dog watcher too, but for this extended home alone vacation for Mr. crabby cat, she was the ideal choice. Watered summer flowers, was conscientious about packages and mail, communicated with us after a big storm and generally allowed us to enjoy our vacation without any worries about home. She is the best, and we recommend Donna highly!”
“Jessica was very accommodating when our times changed. She took great care with our two dogs and the both loved her. We will definitely use her services again and I would highly recommend her.”

About: With over 14 years of experience caring for animals, pets have always been a big part of my life. I currently have three friendly dogs and a cat, and every one of them is treated like a beloved family member. Our entire household is full of animal lovers, and we pride ourselves on creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for every pet that stays with us. We welcome pets into our home where they’ll enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort.

I’m home all day, every day, which means your pet will get constant attention, love, and care. Since this is my only job, your cat (or dog) will be my top priority, and their needs will never be rushed or overlooked. From playtime and feedings to snuggles and quiet companionship, I’m fully available to follow your pet’s routine and make them feel right at home.

I have three friendly, well-socialized dogs who love meeting new furry friends, and two wonderful kids (ages 8 and 15) who are great with animals and love to play and cuddle with them. Whether it’s fetch in the yard, a cozy nap inside, or just being around a loving family, your pet will get the care and companionship they deserve while you’re away.
“Emily and helpets are absolutely wonderful! We were traveling from out of state, and in need of doggie day care for two days so we could go to museums. Emily agreed to look after Pax even tho a meet and greet wasn't possible. Seeing all the happy and return clients, I felt comfortable leaving Pax at her home. Pax was clwarly happy and relaxed both days. I even got a card with his paw print on it! I highly recommend Emily!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Kimberly was great at explaining everything and making me and my dog feel comfortable. We did day care to see how my dog would do before boarding and it went well. Plus she sent many pictures & videos. Oakley is excited to come back again!”
“Pattie was wonderful with Pepper! She communicated consistently throughout the day while being respectful of my work schedule. She sent plenty of pictures and clearly spoiled our baby girl. Pepper came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely use Pattie again for care when we need it.”

About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I have always grown up having family pets, and still continue having pets within my home to this day. I have two dogs myself, and they are spoiled beyond measure. I'm reliable, trustworthy, flexible, and I'll treat your fur baby just like I treat my own!

About: I’ve had numerous dogs throughout my years including fosters, seniors, puppies and newborns. I have experience administering medications and aiding in mobility for the seniors.

“Anthony was great. We did a meet and greet and when I dropped her off the day, he sent me lots of pictures to reassure me Tilly was content and safe. He took her for walks and spoiled her. I plan to use him again. 5 stars.”
About: Open home with no children or other animals. All sizes of cats and dogs welcome! I hope your baby likes fun and affection because this is the place for it! I've had pets most of my life, and enjoy having happy wagging tails and purrs of contentment nearby. Pet families welcome too! Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my weekly routine, providing a meaningful way to blend responsibility with care. Each visit is thoughtfully scheduled to ensure consistency, creating a sense of comfort and safety for the pets. I prioritize secure environments, always double-checking doors, gates, and feeding instructions to protect their wellbeing. My growing knowledge of animal behavior helps me recognize what each pet needs, whether it’s a calming walk, playtime, or quiet companionship. This attentiveness brings peace of mind to pet owners and happiness to the animals, making pet sitting not just a task, but a fulfilling and trusted part of my week. When caring for a pet in someone else’s home, I prioritize trust and respect in every action I take. I understand that I’m being welcomed into a personal space, and I treat it with the same care and consideration I would expect in return. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to house rules, to ensure the pet remains comfortable and routines are maintained. I respect the home by keeping it clean and secure, and I always communicate openly with the owners, providing updates for peace of mind. Above all, I build trust by being reliable, thoughtful, and fully focused on the wellbeing of both the pet and the home.

I felt like the dogs were in good hands! Will use the service again and hopefully Kathy will be available!”

About: Hi there! My name is Salina! (: Any dog I’ve met I have loved & treated like my own. I have taken care of dogs my whole life and growing up we always had a dog in the home.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have cared for up to six at once, all with very different personalities, energy levels, and needs. This has taught me how to read behavior, stay patient, and adjust my care to each individual dog. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, walks, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I make sure pets are not left alone for long periods and can adjust my routine to match your pet’s normal schedule, including feeding times, walks, and playtime. Although on Tuesday’s I have college classes in the evening. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. Having grown up with multiple dogs at once, I’m very aware of different behaviors and how to manage them safely. I always follow owner instructions closely, keep a clean and secure space, and monitor pets to make sure they’re comfortable. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I treat them like my own.
About: I’ve had previous in home pet sitting experience watching a coworker’s ‘babies’. When they went on vacation I stayed with their pups for a few weeks and looked after them. I also tended to their plants and made sure to clean up around the house prior to them arriving back. The oldest dog had a specific soft food diet due to his bad teeth and the other needed frequent play, snuggle, and potty sessions because she was a smaller dog. They had a long-haired cat that I watched as well (which I found out I’m allergic to). I don’t mind taking care of cats as long as they are short-haired or hairless. I can also stop by to feed, walk, and let your dog(s) outside to potty. I’m available for dog walking and drop-ins weekly! I've done lengthier stays while pet parents have been out of town on vacation. Some previous clients also had a cat that I would take care of as well. I love to spoil animals rotten, so if I am stopping by to let out your pet(s) I will make sure they receive tons of love and treats!
“I have had Keanna taking my two large black lab mix dogs for walks several days a week (or drop-ins if necessary during rainy days) while I'm working for a couple months now and she's amazing! The dogs love her! She can take both of them at the same time without a problem and they are much more disciplined now on walks in general because of her guidance. She is very reliable and very flexible and also will be house sitting/dog sitting for me the next couple of times I go out of town. Highly recommend! 🥰🐕🦺🐾🐾🐕🦺🥰”
About: Hi! I’m Brooke, a college student studying Elementary Education at UM-Dearborn and a lifelong animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including puppies. I previously worked in a dog care setting where I gained hands-on experience supervising, feeding, exercising, and caring for multiple dogs. I am patient, dependable, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, or companionship, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I am currently a substitute teacher, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the school year and full availability during the summer months. During the summer, I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I am reliable, responsive, and committed to providing consistent care that fits your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I follow each pet’s routine, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and always ensure they are safe and secure during walks and visits. I communicate regularly with pet parents and am happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I will treat your pet with the same care and love that I give my own dog.
About: I have lots of experience withs cats, and while i’ve never personally had a dog I have dog sat for friends and family before.

I will always check in with you to make sure i’m abiding by your pet rules! I’ll make sure i’m following your usual routine!
About: From the time I was a young I have loved animals, small to large. I have had experience with caring for Guinea pigs while I was young and my journey with dogs began then as well. I have cared for many of my own dogs from dachshunds to German Shepherds Dogs all my life. I have bred and shown dachshunds and have enjoyed having dogs all my types in my life. In addition I have had a couple of Angora Rabbits, gerbils, several chinchillas and birds. Right now I have two dogs that fill my life with happiness. I have dog sat for several of my friends dogs while they were away for as long as four months. In addition to dogs I have cared for my grandcats when my son has gone on vacation and lived with another grandcat for a while. I have a lot of experience giving medications, even shots, to my pets and have had a lot of experience with senior dogs. My years of experience will allow me to give your pet the care they need and deserve. I am retired and have extra time for morning to afternoon to evening visits. I will work with the time schedule your pets need to be comfortable while you are gone. Your pets comfort is my main goal. Visits with walks, feeding, treats, play and poo disposal to keep your pet comfortable and engaged while you are away. Visits for your cats on a schedule you prefer with play, feeding and cat box cleaning. Small animals and birds will also be cared for as well as you require.

About: I've had dogs all my life. We just just put our dog down after 12 years from being raised as a puppy. Our family isn't ready for a new dog yet, but we love the company! As a teacher, my summer is dedicated to being home and active! I am looking forward to a summer filled with backyard play and plenty of attention for our guest pups. Since we’ll be home the vast majority of the time, your dog will have constant companionship. While we might head out for the occasional short day trip or camp drop-off, our schedule is primarily centered around being home, making us very flexible for drop-offs, pick-ups, and mid-day belly rubs! Your pup’s safety is our top priority! We have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under constant supervision. Our home is a family environment with three kids who are taught to be gentle and respectful with animals, so we do require that any guest dogs be kid-friendly. Inside, we have stairs, so please let us know if your pup has any mobility issues or needs assistance. We are also happy to crate your dog for meals or naps if that is what they are used to at home. Since we currently have no other pets, your dog will receive 100% of our attention and love during their stay
“Lauren and Kevin & their lil nephew were loving to Lola. I glad she was comfortable in their home with their own pets. I always worry about that because Lola is use to being the only dog in the house. Upon pick up Kevin said they really loved having her and said she was really good so I was so relieved to hear that when you are leaving your pet with new people for 7 days. Thank you again for all the love and care you provided Lola while we were away!”
“Angelique was fantastic! I got regular updates with photos and videos, and it was crystal clear that my dog, Arlo, had a great time with her. I will be booking with her again!”
“Jordan was great with my dachshund. I did not ask for photos or updates, but when I did inquire, she was quick to respond and send me a picture that showed how calm and content my dog was. My dog is spoiled with a couple of bad habits and she seemed to have no issues taking care of him. I recommend Jordan and will use again if needed.”
“Kim is wonderful to our girl Isla! Isla just fits right in with the pack and has so much fun. Kim is always doing something fun with her, and always gives her the best care. She’s our go to sitter and we’re grateful to have found her, we will use her until the day she decides to not dog sit anymore.”
“5 stars for Lea and her family! Ellie had such a great stay there while we were away on a camping trip! Very communicative, easy to arrange pickup/dropoff and super friendly family overall. We will be using Lea in the future for sure. Thank you Lea!!”
About: Hi! I’m Nicole. I’m a retired professional petsitter/dog walker of 10+ years and have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages. I’m comfortable giving oral medications, insulin shots, and catering to special dietary needs. I’ve been working from home recently and would love to have some dog friends to keep me company. I own my home and have a HUGE fenced in yard that is great for fetch, and dog friends are welcome on the furniture. Dogs that love to go for walks are a plus because honestly, I feel weird going for walks without one lol. Dogs must be cat friendly! I’m a homebody by nature and rarely am away from home for more than a couple of hours, if I do go out I typically will separate my cats and my dog friends as an additional safety precaution. I don’t crate dogs unless it’s a typical part of their routine. I’m unable to accommodate dogs from multiple households.
About: For over 25 years, our home has never been without a dog. Sadly, we had to say goodbye to our beloved boy, Blue, this past year, and we deeply miss the daily joy and warmth a pet brings to a household. Right now, our family is in a transition period as our daughter heads off to college to play softball. Before we commit to a new pet of our own, we want to see how her game and travel schedule unfolds so we can ensure we have the proper time and dedication a permanent dog deserves. Caring for your pet gives us the wonderful opportunity to welcome that familiar canine joy back into our lives, while giving your dog a warm, experienced, and incredibly attentive "home away from home" where they will be treated like family. Since I work from home full-time, your pup will have constant companionship throughout the day. I am easily able to step away for regular, timely bathroom breaks, and I love using my work breaks to check in on them, stretch our legs, and truly enjoy their company. We have a fully fenced-in backyard, but please note that one portion of the fence in the back is a bit lower. Because of this, we want to ensure your pup isn't an active "fence-jumper." However, safety is my top priority! My work-from-home setup gives me full visibility of the entire backyard while I work. If there is ever any concern, I am more than happy to accompany your dog outside every time they need to do their business. Daily Routine & Preferences Once the workday wraps up, it’s all about the dogs—longer neighborhood walks and dedicated playtime are always on the horizon! I am incredibly comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic young pups to gentle seniors, provided they are fully house-trained.
“Our golden doodle Miles had a great time with Amanda and we were able to enjoy our three days away knowing that he was in such good hands. Amanda sent us numerous pictures and kept us I up to date on how he was doing. We' look forward to having her care for our pup when we travel again.”
“Catalina was amazing. She gave daily updates, was great at communicating and also sent pictures (whenever my cat would allow it. lol). My trip took an unexpected turn so I needed an extra day to get back home and she couldn't have been more understanding about it. I highly recommend her!”
“Cody, his family, and pup Freya took great care of Moxie. She was skittish being her first time away overnight, but they were patient with her and gave daily updates and pics. She loved playing with Freya& fetching balls. Their home and yard is safe and secure. We will definitely book Cody again when we are visiting out-of-state family near him.”
About: As a family of animal lovers, we provide a safe, caring, and fun environment for your pets. My 11-year-old and 15-year-old children absolutely love animals and enjoy helping give them attention, playtime, and plenty of affection. We have a large yard where dogs can safely run and play, and we make sure they get regular walks and exercise. Have had experience with animals, including a senior dog all my life. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I work from home and have a flexible schedule (adjust as needed), which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I do not have a fence but will go out with your dog and take it for a walk. My kids look for dogs to pet and play with everywhere. Exercise is something I am trying to do in the summer, let me watch your dog and take them for a walk.
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
