“Brittany did an amazing job taking care of my two rowdy Rotties! She took the time to stop by and get to know them prior to her drop in visits. They both loved her! This was our first time having anyone other than family take care of our pups and I can't say enough great things about her! Thank you so much for taking care of these two crazy pups so we could sneak away for a night!!”

About: I bring years of hands-on experience in animal care, including working as a behavior modification dog trainer and spending many years in veterinary medicine. This background allows me to understand not only canine behavior, but also health, safety, and early signs of medical concerns. I’m highly enthusiastic about canine fitness and nutrition, and I tailor care to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and routine. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, calm, attentive care, I provide a safe, knowledgeable, and compassionate experience. Your pet’s well-being—both physical and mental—is always my top priority. I’m home full-time, so boarded dogs receive constant supervision, structure, and individualized care. My days are centered around caring for dogs, which allows me to safely manage multiple boarding dogs with different needs, energy levels, and routines. Each dog receives a balanced routine of exercise, enrichment, and rest in a calm, structured environment. I closely monitor behavior, maintain safe group dynamics, and provide plenty of one-on-one attention to ensure every dog feels secure and comfortable during their stay. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I maintain a structured, calm household designed to meet the needs of a wide range of dogs. I have multiple separate rooms available for dogs who do not do well with other animals, allowing them to relax comfortably without stress. For dogs who enjoy social time, there is plenty of space for safe interaction and movement. I require dogs to be crate trained overnight or reliably potty trained with an established routine, which helps ensure safety, cleanliness, and consistency for everyone in my care. My home includes a secure, fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and play. While structure is an important part of my household, dogs also enjoy playtime, enrichment, and appropriate freedom based on their individual needs and comfort level. With my experience and environment, I provide a safe, attentive, and well-managed space where dogs can feel secure and well cared for.

About: My house is full of love and my dogs will surely keep your pets entertained they are friendly with almost everyone and the indoor and indoor/outdoor cats have been around many dogs and other animals with no problems in addition the rodents and birds areas can be closed off so your pet has no experience with those animals to keep all pets happy and healthy. I grew up on a farm so I have experience with cows, goats, rabbits, geese, ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, dogs and cats. When I turned 17 I started my zoo as my father calls it, I have 11 animals. I started with a simple one cat and one dog. In 2023 I increased the number from 2 pets to 5 getting a Chinchilla and two cats one showing up at my front door and another surrendered to me after I friend couldn’t care for him anymore. Then in the beginning of 2025 another friend moved and couldn’t bring her birds so we took in 3 parakeets which they do better in pairs so we bought one to make it 4 and then a couple months later we were finally able to find a second chinchilla so that nether was lonely because they are also better in pairs also. Lastly number 11 I had been thinking about for awhile I always wanted a lot of dogs being a big dog person so my 11th pet we got at the beginning of 2026 she is a 6 month old border collie. I currently work part-time in the evenings so I’m free every morning and all weekend depending on the weekend. I can also be available any day by request but my days off are always Sunday, Monday, Friday, Saturday. I live in a rural area with a large space for dogs to play we have a 5 year old small medium pit-terrier mix and a 6 month old border collie. I also have a variety of pets so I have knowledge on how to care for birds, rodents, fish, cats and of course dogs large and small.

“Good person”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personal care, attention, and reliability I bring to every pet I look after. I don’t just “watch” pets — I get to know them, build trust, and treat them like my own. With a background in business management, I’m extremely organized and dependable, so pet parents can always count on clear communication and consistent care. I also have a naturally calm and caring energy that animals respond well to, and I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, routines, and quirks. Whether it’s sticking to a medication schedule, keeping pets engaged and active, or simply making them feel safe while their humans are away, I go above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. Pet care fits into my daily needs because I already structure my day around caring for my dog. Add I’m very active and being around dogs gives me another reason to enjoy it! I care for my pets by making sure all their physical and emotional needs are met every day. That means sticking to regular feeding schedules, providing fresh water, making time for daily walks or playtime, and ensuring they get plenty of affection and attention. I also pay close attention to their behavior, so I can quickly spot if something seems off — whether it's a change in mood, appetite, or energy level. Beyond the basics, I truly enjoy creating a safe, calm, and happy environment where they feel loved and understood. Every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one feel most comfortable and cared for.

About: I have always had at least one animal in my home since I was born. My grandmother showed dogs and I would often help her get them trained and groomed. She was also an amazing professional dog groomer and I spent a large chunk of my time with her and learning from her. I like puppies but I have a love for older dogs. I have experience administering meds and injections. I work part time, on the weekends and I go to college full time. In the summer I work 5 days a week but based on your needs I can fit your furry friend into my schedule. I like to have a little list of things that you would think is important like the vet you want them to go to if your baby gets hurt, a feeding schedule, and anything that you may have concerns about while I stay at your house. I treat all of the animals I watch as they are my own babies and think it’s important to gain the trust of them while at your home, so they feel more comfortable.

About: My current job involves taking care of all types of animals, and I have had many types of pets my whole life. Reptiles, furry friends, small animals, birds, fish, etc. I know basic(and in most cases, more than that) care for majority of pets. Im comfortable with all kinds, furry, or scaly! I have a full time job, and schedule changes every week. Im often working evenings, so mornings are most open for me. Although I am flexible, and able, to move my schedule around. I have reliable transportation, and i'm comfortable coming to your home to care for your pet. I am okay walking, feeding, checking in on, etc., any pets you may have. I love all animals!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. I’m a Big advocate on animal rescue. I have watched friends and families animals when they go out of town. I currently work part time as a server. I would like to transition into pet care full-time. after the new year. Making myself available to come to you is something I think is important so you and your pet feel more comfortable in your own surroundings. I would care for your pet in your home along with your pet routine. I know how important it is for your pet to stay on their routine. With you being gone it will help ease pet anxiety, if they have it.

About: We feel blessed to serve your pet! My teenage daughter and I are a team and have taken care of many different types of dogs and cats (even cows and sheep). We love animals! Our neighbors, friends and family rely on us to drop in on their pets to feed, play and love on them while they are away. We appreciate your business and look forward to meeting your furry family member. ♥️ I work Monday through Friday during the day but am available for early mornings drop-ins and anytime after 3pm during the work week for a drop-in and play. Full flexibility on the weekends. I have experience with giving medication and injections. Our dog requires daily (am and pm doses) apoquel tablets and weekly allergy shots so we are familiar with allergies and giving injections as well. Whether you’re working late or out of town, we can stop by and give your pet some love and care. We will be happy to adapt to your routine and drop-in as requested for feedings, treats, medication, belly rubs and play. We can send you pictures, videos and updates as often as desired.

About: Neighbors friends and families have all relied on me to bath, walk, medicate their babies and I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding resort! I’m currently working as a kennel technician at R Veterinary in Fenton. I work full-time at least 40 hours a week! Monday/ Tuesday/ Thursday I work 10:30-7pm Fridays I work 7am-7pm Saturdays I work 4-7pm And I’m off Wednesdays and Sundays! I have one dog well trained, free roam of the house, allowed on everything, potty trained and go out for his walk every day, and takes days off as he wants!

About: I have had pets all my life. Cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, hampsters.. the list goes on. I was in Human healthcare and found its not much different. I can help with your pet care needs. My work schedule can be flexible so I can adjust it to fit most pet needs so you can plan that vacation free from worry. I have a fenced in area and a designated space in my house I call the “pet room” . My house resembles someone who has a 2 yr old but instead of kid toys and beds it’s dog and cat toys.

About: Friends and family always joke that if I could own a zoo, I would certainly have one. I’ve had my own dogs since I was old enough to convince my mom it would be a good idea. 5 fur babies I claim as my own, my two and my boyfriends 3. That’s a lot of dog hair! I have experience in oral medication administration, grooming, surgical aftercare, and experience working with both puppies and large dogs alike. I have experience working with dogs who have anxiety courtesy of my pup Willow, and continue to learn a lot along the way. Experience working with dietary restrictions due to health issues, and the special needs of those whose hair is turning grey. I love providing enrichment for my pups, mental stimulation is key! I am currently available most weekdays for drop ins and walks between 10am and 4pm, and on weekends I have mostly open availability. I would love to get to know you and your pup and develop a routine if you’re looking for regular services! Though I don’t offer boarding in my home currently, safe practices are of the utmost importance to me when it comes to the health and security of your pets and your peace of mind when you’re away from them. I am comfortable with re-securing kennel and crate trained dogs, and am effective at coaxing those who aren’t so fond of their crate. One of our pups is an extremely large and loving Great Pyrenees and she’s about as stubborn as a mule, but she responds better to me than the rest of her two footed family members! If your baby has a strict feeding schedule or timed medication doses, I am very mindful of this when working with them, and will thoroughly follow any set feeding guidelines or dosages that are laid out. Every dog has their own unique personality and quirks that make them special, and sometimes those quirks can lead to pet parent concern, I love to get to know a dog’s personality from their owners, because it helps me to work with them in providing the best care possible for their needs by knowing how they respond in different situations or interactions. Communication is key! I harness and recall trained my dogs, and know that both are an important combination to maintaining safety when out of the home. If you have a reactive dog who’s in need of some exercise, rest assured that I will keep their safety as well as the safety of others in mind when out on a walk. Maintaining distance and providing redirection if and when needed.

“Haley is wonderful!”

About: I’ve grown up around big and small dogs all my life. I have also been dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors and love to take my German shepherd on runs. I live at home right now and am taking one class online and work-part time so I will have lots of time to play with your pets and snuggle them. I make sure the animal will stay within boundaries if they have to stay in a fence and will make sure that they get all meds needed or food on time.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, and my lifelong love for animals ensures every furry friend receives dependable, affectionate, and joyful attention! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine, as I prioritize walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, making animals a constant part of my everyday life! I work Monday - Thursday from 8am-6pm so weekends and nights are my open availability 🙃 Caring for pets is all about love and balance. I start the day with fun walks and play, followed by nourishing meals and plenty of cuddles. Between bursts of energy, I make sure there’s calm, cozy downtime so they feel safe, happy, and loved—just like they’re part of my family.

About: I grew up around dogs working at a grooming shop and love animals! My children are older. They are 21 and 18 and loves animals as well! I do wfh. I’m available during the week and weekends as well. I do have a Pom-a-Poo, Brooklyn and a cat, Milo. They are sweet and loving! I enjoy on nice days taking dogs to the dog park, walks on trails, or through my neighborhood. I do not have a fenced in yard but will take them outside on a leash frequently. I have dog sat for friends and family numerous of times so thought I’d expand and help other people so they feel like their beloved animal is taken care of and in good hands while they are away! I have plenty of time to play with your pups and available pretty much 7 days a week! During the day someone is generally always home. I have a fenced in yard. I also ask if your dog is crated to bring your crate as well. I feed them on the schedule you provide and walks as well I am currently working from home and available to maintain any schedule or routine as needed to ensure dog/puppy day to day in minimally disrupted I have a fenced in yard and make sure I do not leave out items they can get into or harmful to ensure their safety

“Absolutely great!”
