“Breanna saved us last minute when a friend cancelled dog sitting for our 3 while on a short trip. She was very kind and sent lots of pics. Would recommend her to anyone!”



“Annika R was the sweetest with our boy Frankie. It was the first time we left him with someone else besides us. She suggested a meet and greet and Frankie took to her right away. Annika is a great communicater and sent picture and text updates while we were gone. We will definitely be using her again! If you need a trust worthy sitter who loves animals she's your girl!”


“Megan is a wonderful dog sitter! She is a great communicator and sends regular updates and photos. The photos clearly demonstrated that Coco was having a great time and was well cared for 😀💛”


“Randi stayed with our little guy over a long weekend and did a great job. She was super communicative and sent lots of pics. Came home to a happy healthy doggo! Highly recommended”


“Khelsi was fantastic - highly communicative, prompt, and so warm and cuddly with the dogs. I also appreciated that she came through on short notice. We definitely hope to work with Khelsi again!”


“I was in a last minute pinch for a weekend trip and Josh came through. Josh took great care of my two pets and made sure they were well taken care of and loved. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a sitter.”


“Miciyah was so lovely to work with. She took care of my elderly cat at my home for 1.5 weeks while I was out of town. She sent lots of cute pics and even left me a Polaroid photo. She made everything really easy and I could tell my cat was happy and well taken care of when I returned.”


“lauri helped us out recently with housesitting and watching our two cats - one of whom required medication twice daily and some other specifications throughout the day. lauri was great with caring for both him and his brother, giving them everything they needed and making sure that they were happy and healthy while we were away. she sent photos and detailed updates and it gave us such peace of mind knowing that she was looking after them. we came home to happy cats and a well taken care of house - i would highly recommend lauri and will be booking with her again!”


“Cassidy was amazing! Our pup is VERY high energy and can be hard to handle so we were nervous about getting an house sitter for an entire week for the first time but she handled him amazingly, him and our house were in perfect condition as well as our kitty. She sent us updates and answered us quickly when we texted her and was so easy to work with plus she followed our instructions to a tee! I would absolutely recommend to book her and we will be coming to her for any and all of our pet needs in the future.”


“Casie is truly everything you could want in a pet and house sitter. My dog is incredibly anxious and has never stayed with anyone who isn't family before. My husband and I just moved to MI and I was literally losing sleep over who would watch my fur baby when we went to visit our family for the holidays. Casie came in to save the day! Not only was so patient while my dog did her best to show how tough she is, she somehow managed to win her over! She even took the time to come over the day before to take her on a walk and reintroduce herself. Once on vacation I was sent updates regularly and you could tell how comfortable my dog was. If you are looking for someone who can handle anxious dog (and owner) you found her! I would recommend to everyone I know!”



“Chauna was terrific (and we gave her five stars!). She took excellent care of our older Lab, Bella, and managed her meds and other needs beautifully. She sent regular pics and updates, and was quick to check if she had a question. Bella certainly enjoyed her new friend! Chauna is VERY highly recommended.”


“Nicole communicated with me well while I away. Letting me know how Stitch was doing and sending pictures. I really appreciate her picking up my last minute request and loving Stitch while I away.”


“Virginia was amazing with our three pups! She provided daily photo and video updates, and kept our home so tidy! Our girls LOVED her, and were so happy to have her watch them. We will be using Virginia again for sure! Thank you V!”


About: I have always been the first to offer to cat or dog sit for my friends. My own cat needs daily oral medication, so I understand the importance of timely medication. I can't wait to meet you and your pets. I am currently attending online school, so I will have a lot of availability to care for your pets! I'm new to the area, and excited to get myself out there. I'm attentive to animal body language, and know some animal first-aid. In case of an emergency, I'm also capable of lifting up to about 80 pounds.

About: I got my first dog at age 12, I was responsible for feeding, walking, bathing, training and kennel cleaning. Fastforward to today I had taken care of not just dogs but cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Currently I work from home, so I am able to give your pet the attention it needs. I'm able to work Sunday - Friday anytime you need. As of right now I'm in an apartment so as of right now Im only doing house sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. Thank you.

About: I connect with both cats and dogs by meeting them where they are whether that’s training and playing with a high-energy puppy, giving extra patience to a shy kitty, or providing gentle care for seniors. I’m comfortable with medications, routines, and tailoring care to each pet’s personality. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” pets, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m only working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to focus on pets and their needs. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. Having a consistent routine helps pets feel safe and happy, and I make sure to check in with updates and photos so their humans know they’re doing well. I provide care in both my home and my clients’ homes, depending on what works best. I have a fenced in yard for safe outdoor play, and I can keep my own cats and senior dog separated so your pets have their own space. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or cuddles, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care.
