House Sitting in Walled Lake

“Grace is awesome! Took great care of Daisy on very short notice. Was professional and kept a good eye on Daisy and kept her active with lots of photos. Can’t recommend Grace highly enough!!”

About: Hi! I’m Melanie — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet caregiver. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s truly my passion. I’ve been the go-to pet sitter and dog walker in my neighborhood since I was 12 years old, and now at 23, I can’t imagine doing anything else! Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of every size and personality — from energetic Great Danes to shy rescues and everything in between. I also have plenty of experience with cats and understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether your pet is a big goofball, a little timid, or bursting with energy, I meet them right where they are with patience, understanding, and love. I am also CPR & First Aid Certified for both dogs and cats, I feel like that’s incredibly important to know for our fur babies. At home, I’m a proud pet mom to a lovable pitbull mix and a charming tuxedo cat — my pride and joy. They’ve taught me so much about the unconditional love animals bring into our lives, and I treat every pet I meet as if they were my own. When your furry family member is with me, you can trust that they’ll be safe, happy, and loved. I’ll make sure they get plenty of playtime, cuddles, and care — and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make their day a little brighter. 🌟 I currently work part time working very minimum hours a week at a dog park, so I am available majority of the time. I will always try my absolute best to accommodate your schedule and be there for your fur babies! Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you might have. :) I will care for your fur babies like they are my own! I will love them, make sure they get food and fresh water and of course treats! I will take them for long walks and play with them so they are happy and ready for you when you get home.

“Nicholas did an amazing job house sitting for our dog and cat. He was responsive, respectful and made sure he understood our instructions prior to the sit. He sent us photos and an update daily and went above and beyond for the comfort of our pets. They will be so excited to see him again the next time we leave town!”

“Judy provided great communication the entire trip and ensured my dog got the correct medications. She left the house clean and it gave me peace of mind knowing Judy was at home with my dog.”

“Sarah took such amazing care of our dog, two cats, and home while we were out of town. She provided picture updates throughout the day. I didn’t have to worry at all about my babies while we were gone. Her communication was top notch. I will definitely use Sarah again!”

About: I have had dogs in my life for many years now! I adore dogs. My family has own three goldens, one German Shepard, and one black lab! I’ve cared for them my whole life, including feeding, bathing, playing with them, working on training, etc. I work part-time until school starts in the fall. I have tons of time to see and play with your babies! I have my own form of transportation so I’m accessible at all times of the day! I will always make sure to ask questions when I’m not sure on something because I know how nerve racking it can be to leave your baby with someone you don’t know. I will also always double check any instructions to make sure I’m doing things perfectly to ensure nothing goes wrong. I am always up for playing with them and cuddling whenever they allow me to.

“I will DEFINITELY use Josiah as often as possible! He followed all my instructions and my dog absolutely loved him. My beagle suffers from separation anxiety, and it's hard to find someone who not only compassionately understands his needs, but also with whom my dog feels comfortable and secure! When I arrived home, my dog was sleeping at Josiah's side. I think I finally found a perfect match!”

“Jennifer was such and amazing dog sitter for our two Australian Shepherds. We had a chaotic week before a trip we had planned for months. Both our dogs had to go to the vet for paw injuries that required them to be in cones and kept separate. On top of that our first sitter we had planned did not show up for our meet and greet before our trip. We booked Jennifer the night before our trip and she responded immediately and ask if she could come over within an hour to meet the dogs. She paid extreme attention to detail when we told her all she would have to do with our dogs and asked a ton of questions which really helped to ease our stress. While we were gone she sent us regular updates with photos of our dogs which also eased our worries. All in all Jennifer was punctual, professional and very caring toward our pups and the special situation. I would strongly recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have been an animal lover since a young age. I have a three year old puppy that loves other dogs. I have pet sat and boarded many dogs and they were nothing less than spoiled! I live on a lake so if your dog loves the water it will have the time of its life, if not, that’s okay too! I am very active so walks can happen frequently. If you are interested in boarding with me I require that your dog is house trained (exception for puppies because they are learning and I can work with that), good with dogs, and doesn’t mind kids nearby. I currently work at a daycare 3 days out of the week from 8AM-6PM with an hour long break that I will use to spend time with your pet! But, my weekends are completely open! In my clients home I would care for their pets the exact way that they do and how they instruct me to do so! :)

About: I have been caring for cats and dogs ever since I was young. I have cared for animals of all ages young to senior. I have experience administering pills and I have helped follow suit of owners training while they are away. I currently do pet sitting full time, and it is the best job I could ask for! I love filling my days with overnights, dog walking, and drop in visits. Occasionally I will pick up some shifts at my friends dog grooming shop but more often than not, I am somewhere snuggling and giving attention to dogs and cats! I will be extra attentive and follow the same routine that they are used to. Walks, playing fetch, whatever the case may be I will do my best to make your animals feel comforted and cared for while you, the owner, is away. I will care for them as if they are my own.

“Lyle is amazing. Axl’s new bestie! So responsive and helpful. Took good care of our pup and our home while we were away. Left a log of activity and treated Axl like a king. We can’t thank Lyle enough.”

“Amy was absolutely lovely. She took such great care of our pups and our house. The dogs loved her. She also brought in our packages that were delivered! She sent pics throughout her stay which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Amy and will be using her services again!”

About: I've had both cats and dogs as family members for many years. Now I currently love my family and friends' pets as if they were my own. I currently work in the office 4 days per week but can leave after 4 hours and be home around noon. I'm a home body so I'm comfortable snuggling and spending playtime with your pets. I usually watch my friends and family's pets in the comfort of their own homes. I often have their pets at my home as well but usually for short periods, though sometimes overnight. I usually initiate playtime and welcome snuggling.

“We had a good experience with Lauren for overnight with our 2 dogs and 1 cat. I can only say I wish there were a few more updates throughout, but absolutely no issues. Thank you, Lauren”
