1. Caitlin F.
“Caitlin was everything we could hope for in a pet sitter. Our dogs warmed up to her right away. She was so conscientious and caring. We had no worries with our diabetic dog and her ability to administer his Vetsulin. We will definitely request her in the future.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I currently have 2 big dogs and 6 cats at my home. I’ve pet sat for friends and family and sometimes I come over just to see their fur babies. I love going on walks with dogs but also snuggling up on the couch with my babies. I’m currently a college student at Michigan state studying to be a zoologist! My plan is to be a zookeeper or a zoo vet! Although I am a full time student I have plenty of time on the weekends, between classes, and during holidays! I also do not have another job at this time. I’m a very gentle person and I have a lot of respect for animals space. I don’t like to rush or make them feel threatened by me. I often however, hit it off very well with pets and love to play with them! I have tons of acres at my home so my dogs like to run free or on a leash if needed.

4. Jessi C.
“Jessi went above and beyond for a last minute drop in visit. Not only did she stay and play with my pets she sent me and my husband pictures of them paying outside: we are so grateful and would love to book again!”
5. Amaya F.
“Amaya is wonderful! I highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who is reliable and kind. My old man cat Mr. Ed warmed up to her so fast and he usually only likes me, so that made me feel great about being away knowing he was in good hands. She kept me up to date about everything and made sure my best friend was taken care of :)”
6. Caryzma S.
“Caryzma is the sweetest, most caring person I know. Whether it’s babysitting or pet sitting she is my go to. She is very attentive to my needs and wants for my fur babies, she sends pictures to keep me updated, she goes above and beyond, I love it! If you need a trusted sitter Caryzma is your gonna be your best choice!”
7. Lindsey S.
“Lindsey is so good with our cat Kiki. Kept our place clean and visits on time. Takes very good pictures of Kiki too, from that we know Kiki is very smitten with Lindsey. Highly recommend Lindsey, we’ll definitely be contacting her again.”
8. Elena R.
“I cannot say enough good things about Elena. One of our cats is skittish around strangers and even she warmed up to her immediately!! She took great care to ensure our kitties were getting some quality time while we were away. We will definitely be booking her in the future.”
9. Joshua C.
“Josh has watched my dogs for a few years now and has been awesome! He took great care of my sick blind dog and even stayed over night. He recently has been watching my new puppy and gives her plenty of play time and attention. I highly recommend Josh, he’s very reliable!”
10. Taylor S.
“Taylor was wonderful with my cat Bandit. He doesn't warm up to everyone but he sure liked Taylor. She showed up as promised and is very trustworthy.”
11. Jessica M.
“Jessica was great with my dogs and my dogs really love when she comes around to babysit them. She has been instrumental in dog sitting when I am out of town. She is also very easy to work with and tries to learn everything about your dog to successfully care for them not only this, but she also works with your schedule in case there is a last-minute schedule change.”
12. Serena B.
About: Hi I am Serena, a 26year old dog lover. Any dog I have met I have gotten along with and cared for as if it were my own. Growing up I have had multiple family dogs and currently have a 2 year old beagle! I live in a house with a fenced yard and I myself love going for walks of any distance! I am more than happy to help your pup get some exercise! Any specific instructions for your pup will be followed and I can guarantee they will be in great hands! I am currently working full time 12 hour shifts and my schedule changes biweekly. I am normally available at least 2 days a week for walks or drop in visits I care for any pet as if they were my own! While walking dogs I make sure they are walking safely. I follow any directions given by the pet owner to ensure their pet is happy!
13. Nicole P.
“I was so excited to get a turtle, it is the pet I always wanted. Nicole helped me set up a tank and taught me how to care for my turtle. That was 12 years ago. Nicole has helped me several (many, many) times over the years troubleshoot problems with Mytlle Turtle's shell, tank, and feeding regiment. She even helped me design and execute Myrtle's current turtle mansion! She is very knowledgeable about all kids of animals. I took my my turtle in for a check up when she turned 10 years old and the exotic pet vet said Myrtle was in excellent condition. I owe that to Nicole's help.”
14. Gianni C.
“Gianni is a great dog sitter! Our mini Doxie as most Dachsunds can develop back problems so need to be extra careful to not let them jump off a couch or bed. Gianni always makes sure to pick her up properly by holding her front & rear then carefully place her on the floor. Dogs know when a human loves them and ours loves Gianni. He loves taking her for walks. He is very caring, dependable and trust worthy. Big or small, Gianni loves them all!”
15. Shannon G.
“Shannon was awesome! Took the time for an initial meet & greet a few days before and communicated each day how it went with Dexter. We will certainly have her take care of Dexter again.”
16. Brittany V.
About: I have been pet sitting all kinds of animals, since I was 10 years old. I have helped train puppies, and have taken care of senior animals. Sometimes the senior animals have a harder time while their parent is gone, so they need a little extra help. Which I am more than happy to take that time for them. I currently work full-time, will be doing this on the side. Looking to do drop in visits at this time, and dog walking. I will make sure I don't schedule anything that I can't take care of your baby appropriately. The well being of your baby is my top priority. I will do visits at your home, to best keep your baby comfortable. Whether it be a fenced in yard, teacher or a walk on the leash. I will be sure your baby is safe in my care.
17. Ardra H.
About: Lifelong cat owner, from kitten to senior and every stage in between. Experienced with winning over shy, skittish kitties, including strays. Dog owner for 14 years, from puppy to senior, and have helped friends and family care for theirs periodically throughout the years. I also have experience with reptiles, keeping a bearded dragon for the past 11+ years, and helping a friend care for and feed their snakes. I have plenty of free time to dedicate to your furry (or scaly) family. I have a couple of evenings spoken for during the week, but if you ask nicely I can see about adjusting my availability if need be. :) I will do my best to keep your pet's routine consistent (if informed), and if staying to keep them company, I will leave your home as clean or cleaner than it was when you left. I will feed and walk on schedule, only feed them what is permitted (sensitive tummies and allergies are no joke!), and incorporate play (and possibly some grooming) while keeping them safe and respecting their limits.
18. Amy D.
About: After trying to find a sitter for my own dog, I realized how expensive dog boarding was. So I wanted to offer people a cheaper alternative. If you are looking for an at home feel kinda stay then this is it! I'm not a professional, but I love dogs. I love playing with dogs, walking them, and giving lots of snuggles. I have always owned at least one dog and have experience with lots of different breeds. I have a gentle voice that even shy dogs open up to me. I enjoy grooming dogs and making them feel special. I am a stay at home mom so your fur baby would have constant care and companionship. I have a pretty open availability and am very flexible. I can provide care in my home or in yours. I have 2 children, a 1 year old and 8 year old, so if your dog isn't comfortable around children I would have to go to your home.
19. Kristina M.
“Kristina is my go to puppy sitter when I am going out of town. She is fantastic with both large and small dogs. I have an English Mastiff and a Chihuahua. Both dogs love Kristina. I really feel like her home is a second home to my fur babies. Kristina is knowledgeable, fairly priced, and genuinely loves the animals she cares for. I love the fact that she will text me cute pictures, text updates on how my dogs are, a cute little report card for when I pick my dogs up, and she bathes my babies too while they are in her care. Honestly, the little things like that are nice, but the truly priceless thing is that I feel so comfortable with my dogs being in her care. I know that they are in safe, loving and caring hands, and that allows me to truely enjoy my vacation or focus if I am on a business trip. My dogs and I are so blessed to have found Kristina!”
20. Amber L.
“Very professional. Takes a minute for our dog to warm up to a new person and Amber understood this. The meet and greet went well as well as the drop in. We would request Amber’s services in the future if the need arose. Trustworthy and cares about your pet. Definitely 5 stars.”
