“Corrine was wonderful. She sent pictures every day. She always responded to my texts when I would ask questions about how Charlee's day was. She gave me the piece of mind I needed to know that Charlee was getting the best care while we were on vacation. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you Corinne for taking such good care of Charlee.”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful with Lilly during her 3-night stay! She was so diligent about sending regular updates and pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. She treated her as her own and Lilly looked so happy in every photo and came home calm and relaxed. Christine genuinely cares for pets, and I highly recommend her! I will definitely be a return customer.”
“Carol watched our Hansel for 3 days/2 nights. We were impressed from our initial meet & greet at Carol's neat, organized home. Her demeanor and experience indicated that she would provide excellent care for our pet. We received daily updates including photos that all was well, and Hansel was being his usual sweet self. At pick-up we found our boy happy, and ready to go home - we are confident he had an excellent experience with Carol. We are happy to have Carol as a resource for our future pet sitting needs.”
“What an amazing family! Our 1 year old doggie spent 10 days with Ashley while we were on vacation !Piper was so well cared for….. just like ishe was their own doggie! We just picked her up and she was so happy! We highly recommend Ashley to care for your doggie!”
“Danielle is amazing and made us feel so comfortable leaving our baby for the weekend! Her pup Georgia is amazing with other dogs and shows them the way. Could not recommend her more!”
“Gwen's house is Deacon's new home away from home. The whole family is so sweet. Gwen made sure Deacon had his medication every day and sent updates at the perfect times. I cannot say enough great things about her!”
About: Your pet gets more than a sitter they get a new best friend! ❤️ Since I work from home, they'll enjoy plenty of love, attention, playtime, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. Photo updates are always included so you can see all the fun! Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who worked as a vet tech many moons ago while I was in nursing school. These days, I work from home, which means your pet will get plenty of attention throughout the day. My home is also full of fellow animal lovers! We have two dogs, a bunny, a love bird and a bearded dragon, and my two kids absolutely love helping care for our furry (and scaly!) guests. I'm also a bit of a homebody, so spending time at home with animals is truly my happy place. I can't wait to welcome your pet as part of the family! Your pet's comfort and routine are my top priorities! I have a large, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and I'm always happy to take dogs on leashed walks for extra exercise and enrichment. I can follow your pet's regular feeding schedule, administer medications if needed, and tailor care to their individual needs and personality. Whether they love to play, explore, or simply relax with lots of cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
“It was so nice knowing that our puppy was in good hands while we were on vacation. Alba sent daily pics and took her on several outings. I’d highly recommend Alba and already have her booked for our next trip!”
“Christine and family were wonderful hosts for our 5-month old pup. Yes a puppy. And they boarded her over Christmas! Imagine the chaos they willingly accepted! Not only that, the pandemic surge caused our flight to be canceled and we needed to add an additional night with one day's notice. We are sincerely grateful for the service and care provided for our pet.”
“From our first communication, Kristin was responsive and thoughtful. She offered a meet-and-greet and we took her up on it. Scout was at home immediately and I felt comfortable booking right away. We were gone for 8 days, which is a long time to leave your your little furry one. Kristin shared regular updates, often enough so that every time I thought about how she was doing, there was a picture of her face - safe and happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kristin and would definitely ask for her help again if the whole family is traveling.”
“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”
“Great experience! Ashley has a lovely family and they did a wonderful job to take care of my dog! communication was good as well, I was receiving a daily update from Ashley and all my questions were answered almost immediately.”

“This was our second time using Tara and she was absolutely wonderful again. We have a shy cat. She is very patience and gentle when watching her. Tara also goes above and beyond when she is here. We appreciate her so much”

“Megan was amazing, my cats are shy but she managed to get them both to come out for her at her first visit, sent pics and updates each visit which is so great for your piece of mind when you are away and knowing your pets are ok! Very professional and caring, highly recommend! Just booked another stay with Megan!”
“Jennifer took incredible care of my two-year-old cat, and I couldn’t be happier! This was my first time having someone outside of my family pet sit, so I was definitely nervous — but Jennifer instantly put me at ease. I left very specific instructions and shared my worries with her, and she went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. She kept me updated after every visit with detailed reports and plenty of photos, which I truly appreciated. From her updates and the way my little guy looked in the pictures, I could tell he trusted her completely and felt safe and loved in her care. I’m so grateful I chose Jennifer and would book her again and again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive, I highly recommend her!”

“Curt was easy to work with. I have a big dog that I trusted Curt with and a sometimes difficult reactive dog. It is hard to find someone who is patient with my difficult dog so it was nice to be able to get away for the night and know my dogs were safe!!!”
About: Hi! My name is Chelsea and im 30 years old. I have been fostering animals (with my family) since I was 8 years old and on my own since I was 22. I am comfortable and reliable with all ages of cats and kittens. I have a cat of my own who I’ve fostered since birth and she is the light of my life.
About: I have always owned a dog, my mom used to breed dogs so I always was around them. I have been taking care of animals since I was little but I would say for the last 10-15 years I actually did dog watching and would watch my grandmothers friends dogs at her house and would also drop in as needed. I have 3 dog babies and they are exactly that, big babies. I rescued all 3 from a rescue as puppy’s and my pitty was a runt and now is a big boy! I also have fostered dogs and helped my sister with her fosters. I can help with basic tricks but I’m not a professional and don’t claim to be! I have lived and taken care of some senior dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs from puppies to senior. I am also comfortable giving meds if needed, I haven’t had to give a dog an injection but I am willing to learn if you are willing to teach! I currently work fulltime as a unit secretary at the hospital, I can leave during my break for an hour. I work 7am-330pm and I am free most evenings after work. I also work every 3rd weekend so I am available on my off weekends. But the weekend I work I am not available because I work 7a-7p. If your pup needs some extra time to get used to people I am more then happy to come over before you book and meet them to make sure I can help make you and them as comfortable as possible. I am comfortable walking 2 big dogs at a time and 3-4 smalls dogs at a time. I don’t mind updating you as much as you need as they are your babies just as mine are to me. I put Shrek and Harry Potter on for my boys so they don’t get lonely during the day. I also make sure anything they can get into that might hurt them is away, and I make sure they have their collars on as well as double checking doors are locked. I am very accommodating so it never hurts to ask questions to see if it’s something I can help you feel more comfortable!
About: I have loved and adored cats for as long as I can remember. Since I was a baby I have had cats around me- crib included! I come from a family of animals lovers, specifically cat lovers. While my mother cared for strays and our own cats I was right by her side. My mother taught me at a very young age how to love and respect cats. She taught me how to pet them, feed and water them them, interact with them and read their cues when they did not want to be pet or held anymore. When visiting my aunts, uncles and grandma I spent time and helped care for their cats as well. When I was a teenager I helped my Mom TNR cats in our neighborhood. I also volunteered at an animal shelter and worked at an animal hospital. I now care for a cat colony in Howell and TNR cats as well. I have my own cats at home who I love, adore and spoil. I could never imagine life without a cat to come home to!

We can go on as many walks as need be. We will treat your dogs as if they were our own. We can also administer medications if need be. If there are special requests for anything, we will accommodate. Let us watch your pups and you will be happy you chose us! PS- belly rubs and kisses are free of charge!
“Thank you for taking such great care of my kitties, the many updates with pics, your punctuality, and for going above and beyond in trying to help me locate the missing meds for my pooch Gigi! A++++”
“Pamela is fantastic! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitty was well taken care of. I highly recommend and will definitely have her sit for me again in the future.”
“Lisa Marie was fantastic with my boys! She sent me pics at every drop in and by the end even my less affectionate cat was loving up on her. She was very communicative and gave my two cats lots of playtime and love. It felt good to know that they were well taken care of! Usually my boys are full of energy after I leave them alone for a night or two, but they were very sweet and snuggly this time since Lisa Marie kept them busy with their toys! I will definitely use Lisa Marie again in the future.”

About: I believe what sets me apart from other pet sitters is my respect and innate love for all animals. My Mom asked me when I was 3 years old what I would like to be when I grow up and I said, "I want help children and animals.” I have not changed much since then! I am now a pediatric nurse who devotes her time to her cats, a cat colony in Howell and farm animals as well. I have been around animals my whole life, and I could not imagine life without them. I care for animals throughout the day, everyday. I use my time wisely and ensure every animal is cared for in every way no matter what. I care for my pets in my home by providing a clean, safe, loving, and stimulating environment for them. My cats are provided with fresh drinking water (spring water) throughout the day, nutritious food (wet & dry), litter boxes cleaned twice daily and clean glass doors/windows to bird/squirrel watch. My cats also sunbathe on the back patio and enjoy their cat nip as well.

If your pup needs some extra time to get used to people I am more then happy to come over before you book and meet them to make sure I can help make you and them as comfortable as possible. I am comfortable walking 2 big dogs at a time and 3-4 smalls dogs at a time. I don’t mind updating you as much as you need as they are your babies just as mine are to me. I put Shrek and Harry Potter on for my boys so they don’t get lonely during the day. I also make sure anything they can get into that might hurt them is away, and I make sure they have their collars on as well as double checking doors are locked. I am very accommodating so it never hurts to ask questions to see if it’s something I can help you feel more comfortable!
“Elena was a hero today. She ran over to our house after Sammy destroyed a throw pillow. She was able to get it away from him before he could eat it. Elena is so good to Sammy and to us.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life and always have been around dogs. I started off with watching friends pets when they traveled. Then our family dog recently passed away and thought this would be a great idea to have dogs around again . I currently work part time from home and work 2 nights a week for 3 hours , and my husband is home during that time. I have a very large fenced in yard to keep your pets safe. They can be crated if wanted and have a room downstairs by my back door for them to be safe in too. My kids love helping take care of the pets and it makes it a fun loving environment for your animals!
“Sophia was wonderful! She was quick to reply to our request and asked thoughtful questions about our preferences. She spent extra time on her walks with our pup to make sure he got his energy out. She is also one of the only people who has gotten our dog to smile in photos! He is photogenic but scared of the camera. We got some very sweet and special shots from Sophia during her time with him. We can’t wait to have Sophia help us again in future!”

“Corrine was wonderful. She sent pictures every day. She always responded to my texts when I would ask questions about how Charlee's day was. She gave me the piece of mind I needed to know that Charlee was getting the best care while we were on vacation. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you Corinne for taking such good care of Charlee.”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful with Lilly during her 3-night stay! She was so diligent about sending regular updates and pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. She treated her as her own and Lilly looked so happy in every photo and came home calm and relaxed. Christine genuinely cares for pets, and I highly recommend her! I will definitely be a return customer.”
“What an amazing family! Our 1 year old doggie spent 10 days with Ashley while we were on vacation !Piper was so well cared for….. just like ishe was their own doggie! We just picked her up and she was so happy! We highly recommend Ashley to care for your doggie!”

“Gwen's house is Deacon's new home away from home. The whole family is so sweet. Gwen made sure Deacon had his medication every day and sent updates at the perfect times. I cannot say enough great things about her!”
“Christine and family were wonderful hosts for our 5-month old pup. Yes a puppy. And they boarded her over Christmas! Imagine the chaos they willingly accepted! Not only that, the pandemic surge caused our flight to be canceled and we needed to add an additional night with one day's notice. We are sincerely grateful for the service and care provided for our pet.”
“From our first communication, Kristin was responsive and thoughtful. She offered a meet-and-greet and we took her up on it. Scout was at home immediately and I felt comfortable booking right away. We were gone for 8 days, which is a long time to leave your your little furry one. Kristin shared regular updates, often enough so that every time I thought about how she was doing, there was a picture of her face - safe and happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kristin and would definitely ask for her help again if the whole family is traveling.”
“Great experience! Ashley has a lovely family and they did a wonderful job to take care of my dog! communication was good as well, I was receiving a daily update from Ashley and all my questions were answered almost immediately.”

About: There’s nothing quite like the love of a dog. That’s why I’m here to provide a safe, reliable, and relaxing home away from home for your pup! I've been around dogs my entire life and have years of experience caring for my own. I grew up with two Havanese, a Bulldog, and two Shichons! I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and showering every dog with plenty of love and attention. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've pet sat for friends and family, making sure their pups stayed comfortable, active, and well cared for while they were away. I know every dog has their own personality and routine. I'm happy to follow your preferences to help them feel as comfortable as possible. As a grad student, I spend much of my time studying, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to provide attentive care, regular walks, and playtime. My goal is simple - to make every dog feel safe and loved, so you can have complete peace of mind. I’m available for boarding from Friday after 2pm through Sunday. Weekends give me more flexibility for walks, playtime, outdoor adventures, and quality time with your pup. Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I want every dog to feel like they’re in a safe, calm, and loving environment while they’re in my care. I live in a house in a calm, beach neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks and fresh air. While I don’t have a fenced in yard, I love staying active and providing pups with plenty of outdoor time and exercise throughout their stay. Before each stay, I will make sure to learn your dog’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, and any special instructions so I can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. I understand every dog is different. I’m happy to follow your preferences to help your pup feel safe and at home!

She took him to the park and long walks and took extra special care to make sure he was comfortable. Without hesitation I will use her again and I highly recommend Meredith’s services if you want to feel confident that your pet is in wonderful loving hands!”
