1. Pallavi K.

“Pallavi was fantastic! She took great care of our puppy. She understood the needs of the puppy by discussing the requirements ahead of time, clearly explained the plan on how she plans to handle the puppy and provided regular updates on the status. I would recommend her anyone looking for a pet loving, professional pet caretaker.”


2. Rachel B.

“It’s been a week and just a few days of being with Rachel and her pups Gizmo has transformed. He gets exercise and mental stimulation that is soooo much needed. He’s gotten into a great routine and feels much better. Rachel’s communication has been wonderful and I’m thankful to have found her.”

Thank you!!!!”

12. Camila A.

“We needed a last minute sitter for the evening and Camila was awesome for helping us out. We knew our pup was in safe hands - Highly recommend!”


13. Karley M.

“Karley was wonderful with my puppy Oliver. We had just adopted him a week before and needed someone to watch him for a day. I was really nervous about it because he’s still a puppy and we’ve never had to leave a puppy with someone else before. But Karley was so kind and kept me posted the whole time. When we came to pick Ollie up, he seemed to have had a very comfortable stay and felt safe with her. I 100% recommend reaching out to Karley if you’re in the Detroit area and need someone to watch your furbaby for you.”

About: ***Please let me know if your dog has a Barkside membership!*** My husband and I work from home and have very flexible schedules that allow us to be present with our pets during the day. In between play sessions, your dog will be able to relax and rest easily on a dog bed or on the couch with lots of blankets to snuggle in all while listening to calm noises especially curated for dogs. After their nap, they will wake up to a nice snack and stretch their legs outside via a walk, park or just lounging in the backyard. Water bowls are cleaned throughout the day and paws are wiped cleaned after coming in from outside. We have a bin of brand new dog toys from BarkBox for all sizes, ages and chew types. They can take them home or keep them here for their next visit! You are welcome to bring your treats if you prefer. Otherwise, we always keep treats and biscuits stocked up in a variety of flavors but all organic. You rest easy knowing that we are strictly a “Positive Reinforcement” household. We believe in rewarding good behavior and not disciplining bad behavior. We have an 11 year old cat that’s keeps to herself but are able to section the home off if your dog prefers. Our 5 year old pup, Arbor will be your dogs guide and best buddies throughout his/her stay. Arbor has mastered all basic and intermediate obedience training and practically grew up in dog parks. There are no kids in the home during the day and we ask for all pets to be picked up from daycare no later than 5pm. (Please inquire if you need additional flexibility) (While we do charge for pick ups, we are happy to drop your pup off at home within a 8 mile radius of our home.) Last minute requests can be considered, please contact me to inquire! I currently from home as a technology sales rep. When I am not working, I’m entertaining both my toddler and pets. I often have a decent amount of free time and dog sitting has been a great outlet for my dog to socialize and get some fun in! For repeat pets, I have noticed a big difference after a few days of adjusting. I think it’s important for pets to feel safe in whatever space they are in. A place to relax, to sleep, or to be alone. I have carefully arranged my home for my pets and child to be able to roam safely. This will be adjusted based on pet needs I am also a firm believer that proper obedience training is essential to keeping pets safe.

“Awesome! He really helped me out when I was in a bind. Great with communication, following care instructions, and just being patient with my puppy. I will be sending Otis back to him when I need his help.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 18 years old. I’m a dog lover with a dog myself so I think I’m perfect for the job! I’m available all the time. I do work part time and I sometimes go out of town but otherwise I am free when you need me! I live in an apartment with a lot of grass area and multiple dog parks! I also have a dog bed for the puppies that stay!


17. Dalonna B.

“Amazing Care for My Fur Baby! I cannot recommend Dalonna enough! She went above and beyond in taking care of my 3-month-old Morkie making sure all of my pup’s needs were met, I felt completely at ease knowing my baby was in such loving hands. Dalonna was professional, communicative, and treated my Morkie like one of her own. I came home to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for dog. If you're looking for someone reliable and compassionate, Dalonna is the one!”

About: I’ve been a pet owner for over 20 years, ranging from the typical fish, cat, and beloved Murphy, to include even a pet iguana (or two). 🥰 I have a fenced yard where both Murphy and your furry loved one can play and hang out. For overnight stays I have a large adult dog kennel that can accommodate a Mastiff just as comfortably as it can my Min Pin (who believes he’s the size of a Mastiff). 😄 I have an older dog with lots of energy and plays well with other dogs. I am an active person, so neighborhood walking is available for dogs with proper training. I can also provide some minor training reinforcement for puppies or young dogs learning new skills and/or tricks. 🐾 Tips are APPRECIATED!!! 🐾 I work from home! 🙌🏾 So my schedule is flexible and allows me to be able to work with and respond to clients in a timely manner. My home is fenced. All pets remain on the property unless they are taken for walks. I also will let clients know about overlaps in booking wih animals.

“I have known Sara for many years during which time I have known her to be a caring and reliable pet sitter. Sara especially loves dogs and does a fantastic job. I would let her pet sit my dog if she hadn’t moved out of town. Jane d.”
