“Annika is just wonderful with Yvie. Annika has such a kind, loving personality. She was amazing , keeping up with Yvies energy and playful manner. Would definitely recommend Annika!!”


“Thank you so much Sarah!!! You were so, so wonderful to Mylo and I would no doubt book with you again. I can tell how much you love and care about animals and you follow instructions so well. I was so worried about leaving Mylo, especially with somebody he doesn’t know and you made it so easy. You were so patient, kind, and even took the time to make sure the house was neat before you left. I can’t thank you enough!”


“Karley did a great job watching my pup while I was out of town. He gets pretty anxious when I leave so I’m glad he felt very comfortable with her.”


“Gwenyth took great care of our aging dog! She has stayed in our home for a few weekends at this point. Everything has gone smoothly and each time we have returned home to a happy dog and everything back in its place.”


“Maciyah was SO wonderful with our baby Nala. We had just rescued Nala 3 weeks prior to having to leave for 5 days and were nervous to leave her, however, Maciyah was so great with her. She made us feel so much better about leaving her. She sent lots of pictures, gave our girl good cuddles and played with her and took such great care! Would absolutely recommend Maciyah to anyone needing help with their fur baby and Nala can’t wait to see her again.”


“Hanan was amazing! We had a sitter cancel last second before the holidays and she stepped right in no problem. We’re very particular about who watches our Zuko as he can be a lot to handle for some but wow did she do great! Between watching our house and Zuko and taking care of our fish too, she definitely knows what she’s doing. She even had her own puppy boot camp for Zuko! He’s got a few more commands up his sleeves and really is even more well behaved than when we left. Thank you Hanan! Have an amazing new year and we look forward to using your services again soon!”


“Randi took amazing care of our two senior dogs! We felt very confident they were in great hands while we were traveling. So thankful for the attention to detail, constant communication, and photo updates! Randi was also flexible when our travel plans changed due to delays which was very helpful.”


“Ashton was very accommodating and treated my 3 year old Corgi very well. Very professional and timely. Highly recommended! Will definitely utilize her services again.”


About: I have always been a reliable dog sitter for friends and family over the years. I have about 13 years experience doing so. I also have some experience with puppies. I work full-time 9 to 5, Monday to Friday. But I am always available after work around 6pm and my weekends are always free. My schedule is very flexible even though I work full time. I live in an apartment but it is very spacious and I have a back courtyard where dogs can play and relax. I will take your dog for a very long walk and make sure they are stimulated mentally and physically. I will always treat your pet as if they were mine.

“Casie is so amazing to our sweet Willow. She goes above and beyond to make sure she’s taken care of with all of her special needs. We never feel worried about leaving her because we know she is in good hands. High recommend Casie!”


“JJ was fantastic. She housesat my cat and dog, who were clearly extremely happy with her. She sent regular updates and left the house even cleaner than she found it. Would not hesitate to book again.”


“Liz was so sweet, personable, and attentive. Liz fed my dog, took her for a walk, and even sat on the floor with my dog to ease her anxiety. If you ever need a dog sitter in the Detroit area, I highly recommend Liz!”


“Danielle is the BEST sitter we could have asked for! Our pittie mix rescue is sweet but quirky. She was attentive to all of his needs, going above and beyond to accommodate them even as a busy med student. He got plenty of lovin and we got amazing photo updates while we were away. Highly recommend!”


About: I come from a long line of dog lovers and was taught from a young age how to be both caring and firm with furbabies. I have a very flexible schedule and have plenty of time to dote on your furbaby. With some advance notice we can craft a perfect play date. I treat my furbaby clients like family. Lots of attention and care. Other than a happy dog, you’ll never know I was in your home.

About: I’ve taken care of people’s pets for over 15 years. Dog sitting, long-term pet sitting, walking, bathing, swimming. Love to take spoil pets and take them on adventures or simply walk them in the neighborhood. I am currently taking all times and dates. Little notice required if I am available. Any time any date I am here to care for your pet when you can’t. I unfortunately can’t take pets in my home due to my cat who doesn’t share my love for dogs. In your home I will care for your dog as you do. Clients have told me their dog is depressed after leaving me! Bittersweet.

“Mary Grace was great with my dog during the overnight stay. I came home to a happy dog and the house was nice and tidy too, which was a bonus. I definitely recommend her.”
