About: I’ve cared for different kinds of dogs on a regular basis and for short periods of times as well. I can also check in on cats as well and feed them and make sure they’re okay. I work for the schools and I am currently on summer break right now so my schedule is extremely flexible. I have my own dog I care for as well but will definitely have the time to check in on your fur babies as well. I always check my backyard for critters before letting my dog out, especially at night. I personally get skunks in my area frequently and it’s a must. My dog has a doggy door and loves outside time but I always know where he is. I feed him and make sure he’s always comfortable. This is the same kind of care I would provide for your fur babies.
“Sarah made me feel comfortable right away. From reading her profile, checking reviews from other clients and messaging back and forth, I knew she was a perfect choice for my kitty. Zoe suffers from separation anxiety when I leave her alone for too long so of course I worried when I had to leave her for 5 days. To my delight Sarah had taken such good care of her and gave her so much love and attention that she didn't seem to have missed me at all. LOL Thank you Sarah. You will always be my choice.”
“Kristen did a wonderful job looking after our cat during the holidays! She was sweet and followed instructions well. Our cat seemed to really enjoy her company! Will definitely be booking again!”
“Kara was dependable and on time, and kept us aware of Ande's condition and mood. And she sent us great pictures of Ande with each visit. Thanks for taking care of our little girl, Kara!”
“Jo came to my rescue when last sitter needed to cancel for unforeseeable event. She agreed to a late meet and greet before the starting day. She was so patient with me explaining care detail of a new puppy. She stays longer every time, even helps me train my puppy. There is always very detailed feedback after each session, also gave me a in person evaluation session after a week of caring for my new puppy. I highly recommend Jo to pet parents with busy schedule or need help with your furry baby.”
About: There is nothing like snuggling with your cat. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. I'm very honest and trustworthy and would make sure your fur baby was taken cared for and supported. I have become a true cat mom.

“Eva is wonderful. My dog loved her and she took very good care of him. She followed feeding instruction and communication was easy. We live in an apartment so the reason I picked Eva was because her home has a fenced yard and she doesn't have kids or other dogs. It was his first time at doggy care so I wanted him to get as much attention as he deserves, and let me tell you he got a lot of love from Eva and he sure did enjoy that fenced yard.”

I am very happy and will continue to use orawan.”

“Samantha was incredibly kind to take care of Sasha on such short notice. She is trustworthy and reliable and treats Sasha as if she were part of her own family.

About: Hi, I’m Kait! You can trust your pet will be in loving, experienced hands with me. I’ve fostered and helped find homes for 13 dogs, and I share my home with three “foster fail” rescue pups who absolutely love having new friends over. Whether your dog needs a walk, a potty break, or a cozy, safe place to stay while you’re away, I’m here to help. I have experience with dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and ages, and I treat every pup like part of the family. Let me know how I can make your pet feel right at home! 🐾 I’m off work all summer—so your pup gets me morning to night! I’m available for walks and check-ins seven days a week, and once my fosters head to their forever homes, boarding will open up too (stay tuned!). When boarding opens in my home, your dog can expect couch naps, zoomies in my fenced yard, and lots of love! Social pups can play with my three resident dogs, and if your dog prefers their own space, I’m happy to keep things calm and separate. I’ve done it with my fosters and will do the same for yours. Every pup leaves happy—tail wagging and belly full!
“Jennifer was awesome with our little senior papillon, Duncan! She was able to take on our last minute dog-sitting request and everything worked out fine. Duncan ended up sleeping most of the day as it was! Lol! There were other dogs there, but I felt that Duncan was safe and would be well-cared for in my absence. Thank you, Jennifer!”
About: I have had dogs most of my life. My childhood dog, Archie, was a mutt and so loveable. My adult dog was a Pug named Bailey. I had him as a puppy to 12 yrs old. He cracked me up every day! Finally, I adopted a Career Change Leader Dog. Daisy, my yellow lab! I had her 7 lovely years! Both dogs lived to be seniors so I have some experience with extra care and medications. I have no children so my dogs were my world. I have been dogless for 4 years and would be thrilled to share my life with your dog. My only recent experiences have been dog sitting for family and friends! We always have a great time and it is fun to find out their individual personalities and go from there! I am a retired, middle school, special education teacher. I have a lot of patience and time to devote to the care of your doggo! I look forward to spending my days spoiling your baby! I have a completely fenced in yard for a dog to run and play. I have a small and medium cage available if needed. I am willing to make any accommodations necessary to care for your pet as best as possible.

We have plenty of space for dog crates in my apartment, and I also have a big car for transporting animals if you feel comfortable with me doing that!

About: Skilled dog walker with many years of experience. I will treat your fur babies just like they were mine. I can give meds if needed. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time for those furry friends. I have a morning routine in my home of getting up and feeding the dogs and cats. If the weather is permisable, I take our 2 dogs on a walk. Afterwards, I can begin my day. I come to my clients home and take care of their beloved babies. While I stay at my clients home I treat it just like mine and make sure everyone is safe.
About: I am always smiling brightly every time I have the opportunity to be with an animal. (I have many photos of this to share!) I love all types of these precious beings! Some of my life experiences include: Parenting Dogs, Cats, Kittens, Lizards, and Senior Pets. I have assisted in kitten birth and successfully bonded with, and adopted a feral kitten who (still) adores me... Yay! 😁 I have also cared for a very sick lizard who required a lot of care by myself for a few long months. All types of animals seem to be attracted to me, including... dogs, cats, ferrets, horses, donkeys, goats, possums, squirrels, etc. I love the saying, "If animals are drawn to you, it's not random. They can sense good energy and are naturally drawn to calm and safe vibes." I have been a volunteer at the Michigan Humane Society and I am also a medical professional (for humans). *Disclaimer: My '30' years of experience is personal, not professional. 📆 My typical availability might be something like: M-Th evenings 6-9pm (I may arrive in medical scrubs), Friday afternoon 10am-3pm and some Saturdays and Sundays.✨ This schedule is not definite, not always available and varies. Sometimes I will even be available other times. I will keep my calendar date availability as close to accurate as possible but times can't be scheduled daily so they won't be accurate in my calendar, unfortunately. 📆 🏠 House sitting can also 'sometimes' be booked with notice if not marked 'Unavailable' in my calendar, even though that service is not activated in my profile. 🏠 👍🏾 Since I am attempting to transition from human care to animal care, I still work full time (plus) in the Human Healthcare field and my work schedule varies. 👍🏼 🐈⬛ I have always had a strong desire to work with animals and I am hoping to finally transition from human care to animal care. I did not choose to work medically with animals as my career because I prefer to interact with animals and enjoy what they bring to the world, rather than do restraining and invasive procedures on them. 🐶 I am pretty intuitive about what makes an animal happy (and not) and I would make their time with me as awesome as I possibly can! Additionally, I would happily engage farm animals, birds, and others to my full ability!
“Jon has been wonderful with Boston. It is an immense peace of mind knowing that he is there to get Boston out for a nice walk when I am at work. Jon is responsive to all communication and always makes sure Boston is well cared for.”
“Kara is fantastic with our energetic lab puppy. She's so loving with animals and has been dependable for our dog walking needs. She's also really good with training out bad behaviors in our puppy. Thanks so much!”
About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was 10 and have always had one or two dogs living in my house. I've raised several dogs and cared for them from puppy stages to their senior years. I've owned and cared for many breeds from golden retrievers to pitties, Chihuahuas and shepherds. I have never met a dog that hasn't become my friend. I run my own business in the evenings during the week but am available before 4pm during the weekdays and can be available all day on weekends. Your house your rules, tell me exactly how you want your dog cared for and I'll have no problem providing that service. From walks to playing with them in a yard to cleaning up after them.
“Adam has been walking Bodhi for a while now and the proof of his great work shows up every scheduled day when Bodhi goes to the window to look for Adam just before it’s time for his walk. He just knows his friend Adam is coming to see him! 😂 Adam does a great job, he truly connects with our pup and he’s very easy to work with when we have schedule changes. 5⭐️ for sure!”
About: I had my first pet at 15. Boxer girl named Lady. I loved her dearly. Since then I owned 2 cats , 2 dogs and 2 chinchillas. I’ve always felt lots of love for animals. I work part time.
