“Lauren was absolutely wonderful with Charlie! 🐾 She helped me out with walks and drop-in visits and took such great care of him while I was away. She kept me updated after each visit and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Charlie was happy and being well cared for. It was clear Charlie was comfortable with Lauren and enjoyed spending time with her. I really appreciated how reliable, caring, and communicative she was. I would absolutely trust Lauren with Charlie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and loving to care for their fur baby! ❤️🐶”

About: I’ve taken care of all of my pets since a very young age. I love every animal I see as if they are my own! Animals bring me so much joy and I wish for them to have the same happiness. I try to pay attention to body language to know what they are telling me especially when we do not know each other yet. I’ve worked as a dog nutritionist at a place called Must Love Dogs (which I certainly do!) I always want to learn more, do more, and constantly be better for the animals in the world even if I’m only able to impact a few. I have experience with dogs who need a lot of support physically (wheelchairs, lift up harnesses, bathroom assistance) as my own German Shepherd needed all of these things later in life. I may have lost count of how many times I was peed on or had to clean the floors, but I wouldn’t change any of it for the world. I hope to honor him everyday and share my love with other fur babies as much as I can. My love for animals is endless. My goal is to be able to fill my days with all sorts of animals I can love on and bring joy to. I am available any day or time for drop in visits, playtime, feedings, and walks! I currently have a dog and a cat. I take my dog for walks and try to provide plenty of play time, snuggles, and other forms of enrichment for him every day. My kitty is still young and loves playtime, being brushed, and always wants snuggles in the morning which I am always happy to provide! My pets are my babies and every animal I see automatically becomes a baby. I had a special needs German shepherd who was in a wheelchair and needed a ton of special care and attention. I’m not afraid to do the dirty work that pets need to thrive and be happy whether that’s my own pets or my clients. I’d treat them as my own.

“Fatima was absolutely wonderful! We have two shy kitties and she did a great job watching them while we were away. Fatima gave detailed notes for each visit and shared several pictures. She was patient and understanding, which was a comfort to us to know our kitties were in good hands while we traveled!”

“Greyson already knew my one cat Ozzy and he was automatically comfortable knowing they were back. My other cat Sweetie hadn't met them before so Greyson was kind enough to come over for a meet and greet before the stay. She mostly hid, only coming out for one far away glance. Despite Sweeties initial trepidation it was so sweet to watch the progress through Greysons notes and pictures of Sweetie getting comfortable with them to the point of being willing to bug them for breakfast.”

I was able to go on vacation, and not worry about my animals. I will absolutely have her house/pet sit again. Very happy with how the whole process worked, and my animals were very comfortable with her. Even my shy one, showed herself. Thank you Jaime!”

About: I have taken care of puppies and senior pets since I was 7. What sets me apart is my ability to personalize care to each pet’s unique requirements. For puppies, I offer early training and socialization, helping them build good habits from the start. With senior pets, I focus on comfort and mobility, providing extra attention to their health needs and ensuring a calm, safe environment. My patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals ensure that every pet in my care receives personalized and compassionate attention. I currently go to Eastern Michigan University and work during the weekends so I have plenty of time after class to take care of your pups! Im available weekdays Monday through Thursday. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. This includes feeding, exercising, and providing companionship. I ensure their environment is clean, engaging, and secure, following instructions given from the pet owner. Regular updates and communication with the client will be offered to ensure peace of mind for both the pet and the owner.

About: I have over two years of experience as a veterinary assistant in an emergency setting. I recognize early symptoms of common diseases and illnesses to better protect your pet while under my supervision. I also have two years of professional pet boarding experience where I became familiar with animal body language and overall care of pets. I am currently working a schedule where I am out of work around 2:30/3:00pm so I have lots of availability in the early afternoons to help out! I typically am relatively free on the weekends as well 🐶 I believe in treating the pets as I would like my own to be treated- with lots of love! I shamelessly baby talk animals, give lots of pets (if appreciated), and treats!

“Aurora went above an beyond! She was super attentive and responsive. She also gave us excellent updates so I felt super secure while I was out of town. I'm pretty sure my pets are disappointed that she won't be visiting them everyday anymore after my trip. For my next trip I would definitely like to book with her again to look over my fur babies!”

About: I am an animal lover who loves to get outside. I’ve had cats or dogs my whole life, and love any day I get to see a fluffy face. I enjoy for walks, giving a good ear scratch, throwing the ball/stick, and giving shy pets their space. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and a variety of personalities. I work 3 days a week so have plenty of time throughout the week to schedule walks or pop ins! If you have questions please let me know. I currently have two cats that are spoiled rotten. I enjoy going for walks and being part of the pack. Happy to chat and get to know you and your pets needs!

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
