Doggy Day Care in Heartside, Grand Rapids, MI

“Highly recommend Sean - he was able to fit us in extremely last minute (the day before New Years weekend) and took in our 5 month old puppy, Pete, meeting him for the first time when we dropped him off. Thankful he was so flexible especially over the holiday. Pete had a great time and got a lot of playtime with new dog and human friends!”

“Evvia was so good about taking pictures of what they were up to all day! She was so good about telling me how my pup did, and Frankie really seemed to enjoy herself. We Will definitely boom her again!”

“Lindsay is wonderful! She helped organize a meet and greet with our pups so I felt more than comfortable leaving Kirk. Her communication is above and beyond. Kirk came home tired and that is exactly what we needed :)”

“Kourtney was a life saver! It was my first time traveling with my 1.5 year old Yellow Lab staying in a hotel. Any time I left the room she would bark non stop due to anxiety. Kourtney came to the rescue with her quick response to my messages. She was able to watch Ada the next day! Ada is a cautious dog but she warmed up to Kourtney in no time and she had a blast! Instead of a day in a hotel room, she spend it with a true dog loving person and even a trip to the local dog park! Kourtney was outstanding! I cannot be more grateful”

“This was the first time using someone to watch my 5 mo old puppy. So glad to have found Linda! Grace was well taken care of and came home exhausted after a day of play.”

“He was so nice trying get my dog use to strangers and he took the time to just sit outside with us and brought his puppy out to play with my puppy they were just running and playing was so cute”

“This was our first time leaving our dog (Fitz) with anyone, so wasn't sure how it was going to go. Joshua made us feel very comfortable. He took great care of Fitz and updated us throughout the day!”

“Eric has done such a great job with our dogs! He gives them endless love and attention. He loves to bring them on walks! His flexible work schedule has made it so easy for them to get out walking in the middle of the day.”

“Kelsey is AMAZING! Frequent updates (pup-dates), daily walks, kept track of food consumption, frequent potty breaks. I cannot thank her enough :)”

“Wow, just fantastic! My dog Norman was super well taken care of. Communication was excellent. Nice place with a fantastic park right across street. Highly recommend! A+++++”

“Jordan is an extremely caring and responsible person. She pays attention to details and goes above and beyond in all that she does. She loves being outside and will make sure your dog goes on the best adventures finding the most fun parks in your area. She is an animal lover and will take care of your pet like it is her own.”

“Every encounter Amanda has with animals is a connection and understanding unparalleled with anyone I have ever met. The compassion and thoughtfulness she has for her own cat and dogs are the reason why I would recommend her to anyone looking for a professional dog caregiver. I would trust Amanda with my children if I had any.”

“Danielle took great care of our dog! We were coming from out of town for a family gathering, and we couldn’t bring our dog with us. Danielle kept us updated frequently throughout the day. We felt great about leaving our fur girl in her care.”

“Gabriella loves my dog just as much as she loves her own family dog. I can say she is great with animals and she is very trustworthy.”

“Megan is great with dogs! She is a huge advocate of positive reinforcement, and is comfortable with a wide range of dogs. She has three dogs of her own and does a great job of staying in control. She has a passion for the outdoors and spending time with dogs. I’m certain she will take excellent care of your dog!”

“Colin was awesome! Our dogs can take a while to warm up to new people, but they were so comfortable with him! We are excited to use him for doggie stays in the future!”

“Hello, My name is Debbie. I am the president of an animal rescue. This letter is in regards to the services that Colene provided for us. She was great as a foster mom with kittens and orphan cats needing new homes. She was very caring and treated all with respect and lots of love. She was excellent with socializing. The cats/kittens were in her care at her home until they were ready for their new homes. I would recommend her for pet sitting and to care for my pets.”

“Pretty sure Mady likes pets more than people, and she's pretty darn loveable! So if you want the best stand-in companion for your furbabies, Mady's your gal! She is dependable, reliable, responsible and always goes above and beyond for your pet's comfort and safety. Mady has been caring for our dogs for more than 10 years! You won't be disappointed.”

“Susan V is a fantastic and responsive pet caregiver! She’s been my go-to for years for everything from letting my dog out when I work late to overnight stays and even taking my dog to the vet for me. She’s caring and loves animals. Highly recommend!”

About: It’s my mission to give your dog as comfortable and safe of a stay as I would want for my own pup! I have loved animals since I was a little girl, I grew up with dogs in the house so when I moved to California and couldn’t have my own I started working with Rover to help care for others and bring dogs back into my life. I have 5+ years of experience of dogsitting and walking all types of dogs with many different personalities. I’ve taken care of puppies and worked on potty training as well as taken care of senior dogs who need special diets and medicine administration. I strive to make sure I understand all of your dogs needs and the special things that make them unique. This year, I foster failed and brought my own dog into my life. Piper is the sweetest girl who is always thrilled to have another furry friend in the house. If you’re booking an overnight boarding or in home day care with me, you can rest assured that Piper is dog friendly and ready to share all the love and attention. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to take care of Piper in a way that never leaves her wanting a walk, food, or potty break. I will make sure your dog is treated the same! Pet care is already interweaved into my routine. We take 2-3 walks a day, potty breaks as regularly as 2 hours if needed and plenty of time at home for cuddles and love. Without a fenced in yard of my own, walks are very important in exercising my own dog. We stay on leash any time we are outside. When we are inside dogs are allowed on our furniture and beds but I utilize crates as a safe and calming space when needed. For stays in my own house I like to do a slow and safe introduction to Piper to make sure the dogs get along. If dogs ever need separating for a break I have multiple rooms for the animals to decompress.
