About: I have been pet sitting , including house sitting, since high school! I love all animals and have experience with dogs and cats of all ages! I have taken care of special needs animals before as well - including medication injections and senior care. I’m entering my final year of graduate school so I am beginning a phase of most writing my dissertation and other computer work! Because of that I have a very flexible schedule! I’m happy to work with you to ensure a situation that works best for your pets! For any check in services (dog walking/check in visits) I will provide message communication upon entering and leaving the house! For stays at your house I will communicate throughout the stay to update you on how your pets are doing!
About: I'm an owner of a kitty. I've watched other people's pets ever since I can remember. I'm relied on as a good pet sitter, always wanting the best for your pets. Plus I'm a lover of giving treats and good pets I've recently moved down to Saline MI from Marquette MI. I've also recently secured a job as a HHA. I visit my clients daily, but only for 3 hrs at a time. I usually work 8am-11am (I don't work this shift often), and 4pm-7pm. I'm definitely able to watch, walk, and snuggle your pet around my work. Usually only working 3hrs a day leaves me lots of time to visit or stay with your pet! Like I said, I'm a lover of good pets and giving treats. My kitty is quite the diva, and super spoiled. I believe every pet deserves the best care, and I'm here for them when you can't be!

“Carolyn stayed at my house with my dogs for a few days while I was out of town, and she was amazing. My pups are a rambunctious pair with sometimes bad manners. Carolyn was so sweet to them and very communicative about how they were doing. I came home to 2 happy dogs and a well cared for house. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you, Carolyn!”
About: I grew up with different breeds and sizes of dogs from a Chihuahua’s to Mastiffs. I volunteered at Humane Society’s with my mother when I was younger. And my step mother and I also participated in Animal Rescue with friends and family during Hurricane Katrina. Fur Babies are family and should be treated as such. Plenty of exercise, feeding, grooming and play time will be provided. Long walks to help get rid of the zoomies and to breathe the fresh air. Rest assured I will treat your loved ones as I treat my own. Special needs such as medicine or and treatments can be given as well. I’ve had plenty of dogs and cats with health issues that had to be closely monitored. I’m patient and hard working and will do everything I can to provide the best service for your loved ones. This is my main source of income so I have open availability to make sure your fur babies are well taken care of. I make a point to not overlap my scheduled clients so that way I can give your full undivided attention. Although they will know you're not around, I will make sure that they feel as much love as they can until you're home to take back over. Although I do not do pet sitting at my home, I am very willing to do so at yours. I like to take notes and have written down information to make sure that your pet's routine is as similar to what they're used to as possible. I know how stressful it can be for them when their loved ones are away. So whether it is medication, feeding, walks, play time, I want it to be as least stressful of a situation for them as possible. So that way you are able to come back home to the happy healthy baby that you know and love.
“Leanne was a fantastic pet sitter!! She frequently sent updates of our fur babies, and was very personable and communicative. She followed our care instructions without issues, including taking them on a daily walk. I felt our pets were in great hands the whole time. She also left our house spotless. Can’t say enough great things about her!!”
