Local know-how pays off in Ann Arbor
Ann Arbor has a humid continental climate with cold, snowy winters that push below freezing for weeks and warm, humid summers near 84 degrees in July. Sitters salt paws and cut routes short during January ice, then move walks to early morning on the muggiest summer days.
When demand peaks
Demand tracks the University of Michigan calendar, climbing over move-in weekends, football Saturdays, and the winter break when students and staff travel. Boarding and house sitting lead during holidays, while dog walking and drop-in visits carry the workweek for hospital and campus staff.
