About: With 10 years of professional and compassionate animal care experience, I offer specialized services for pets of all ages, sizes, and species. Whether you have a tiny kitten or a large senior dog, I am confident and comfortable providing the highest level of attention. My expertise extends far beyond just dogs and cats; I have extensive experience caring for small mammals, exotics, and even large farm animals. This diverse background ensures I understand the unique needs of every creature under my care. I provide dedicated care tailored around a standard professional workday.

I pride myself on providing seamless care, ensuring your pet feels secure and their routine is consistent.🗓️💊
“All I can say is “Wow!” Nick not only cared for our cat but looked after our home. He watered the outdoor potted plants and picked tomatoes for us. He even washed the towels and bedsheets. I truly believe he left our house cleaner than it was when we left. If you want complete confidence that your pet and home will be well cared for, we highly recommend Nick!”

About: I've always had a passion for animals even since when I was a little girl. Growing up, my family always some sort of animal in the house, but the animals that really impacted my life was a German Shepherd Corgi and Husky mix named Noah and I had a cat named Meow Meow.They were both my best friends and were so protective and sweet. They are reason why I care about animals and am interested in working with animals. I can do anything such as feeding, changing water, administering medication, letting them go potty/ cleaning litter boxes, and of course providing all the cuddles. I would love to chat and to meet your animals and give them the best care that they deserve! I am a student in college, at Southwestern Michigan College but I am taking classes online. All I need is wifi. So, I am really available any day and time! I will provide a safe, secure and loving environment for all breeds I pet sit. My care will leave pet parents confident in my ability to care for their pet in positive ways that meet the pet needs and more some.
“Heather was amazing with our 4 dogs, kitty and even took care of our chickens! She went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable leaving our babies before and during our trip. She sent daily updates with pictures, and even celebrated our dog's birthday with a special treat. We would highly recommend her and will for sure be booking her again.”


“We were a little unsure about having someone come stay with our dogs, but Mykala was definitely the answer to prayers. Our concern was completely gone upon meeting her and our dogs loved her. She was so attentive to them and of course they loved that. She always kept us up to date with what was going on and she sent us pictures, which showed us how content and happy they were. We definitely will be taking more trips knowing Mykala will be keeping Bandit and Lindy company.”

“Jeremiah was extremely responsive and easy going. I could tell by the pictures each day that our dogs warmed up to him quickly. He is patient and reliable and we look forward to working with him again in the future.”
