Jessica was so great with our ladies. She was very good at keeping me posted on how everyone was doing with photos and updates! Our house was just as we left it when we arrived back home, and pets seem very happy! Thank you Jessica! We’ll definitely be working with you again.

About: My family has always had at least one dog throughout my whole lifetime so I had a lot of experience with dogs and exposure to different breeds. Since I moved to college I have dog sat for a couple of different families, so I know how to meet the around the clock needs of dogs. I enjoy going for walks and I enjoy having a companion, so I would love to walk or play with your dogs! I have most availability early mornings and evenings as well as weekends! I work from home usually once a week so feel free to message me even if you have a midday need one day! I enjoy going on daily walks and would love to take your dog with me! I am open to watching your pets overnight, but at this point in time I would be willing to watch your dog in your home! I am also willing to come let your pups out, take them for walks, and even just play with them.

About: I have had my dog for 7 years now, and we have adopted our cat last year. I have also grown up with animals all my life and have helped friends and family take care of their animals! I am a teacher, so I have availability during the weekday in the summer. I am also available during the school year, but that is only on the weekends or evenings I enjoy taking my dog on walks around their neighborhoods so I have plenty of experience with dogs on leashes. I also love playing with animals inside or outside.

We had an excellent experience with Abigail and would absolutely book again. From the start, communication was clear, proactive, and professional, which made coordinating everything seamless. Our dogs were incredibly well cared for—happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable the entire time we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was obvious our sitter paid close attention to routines, preferences, and small details that make a big difference. Our home was also left in great condition—clean, organized, and exactly as we left it. That level of respect and care doesn’t go unnoticed. Overall, this was a stress-free, reliable experience. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and easy to work with, I highly recommend her.

About: I have experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra care! I've been working with neighbors and have been recommended to others due to my reliable and compassionate pet care. In addition, I have completed countless volunteer hours through the Humane Society of West Michigan's Dogs Day Out program, giving me valuable hands-on experience with dogs of varying temperaments, energy levels, and care needs! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for any pet care needed on weekdays and weekends! In my own home, I have one cat who loves to lie around the house during the day and snuggle next to me at night! My #1 goal is to make sure your pet is having fun in a safe and comfortable environment at all times!

About: I often joke that I like animals more than people and with that being said, I can promise that I will love on your furbaby as if they were my own. My Chihuahua-Jack Russell recently crossed over the rainbow bridge and my house has been too quiet. This opportunity with Rover will bring some joy back to my life, hopefully with a side of snuggles. I’ve been watching cats & dogs since I was a pre-teen. I grew up in a house with 2 cats, as well. I work Monday-Friday, but I have plenty of time on the weekends to walk and play with your dog. I am open to house-sitting at your residence if that is better for the animals. I'm available 24/7 for boarding at my house, as long as your pup is crate-trained and okay being home alone for 6-8 hours as I do work full time Monday-Friday. Same hours go for housesitting at the pet's home. I have lots of space to roam in the house. Couch and bed are free spaces. If your pet prefers to be crated at night, I am happy to do so. At your house, I am happy to follow all rules set in place.

She went above and beyond by watering our plants as well. Lastly, her communication was excellent! We would highly recommend her!

Kelli was able to watch our dog on short notice, which we really appreciated. She did well with our German Shepherd, who can be stand-offish until she gets comfortable, and was patient in helping her adjust. Our dog has more involved care needs than a typical dog due to health conditions, including a specialized feeding routine and daily medications. Kelli was willing to take that on and follow through which gave us peace of mind knowing she was attentive to those details. We also appreciated how she handled an unexpected situation during a power outage. The resulting beeping in the house caused stress for Callie, and Kelli responded quickly by comforting her and reaching out right away for guidance on how to resolve it. However, we found communication to be inconsistent. We typically expect daily updates and photos from our sitters, but during this week-long stay, we only received photos twice and often had to initiate contact ourselves for updates. For pet owners who value proactive communication, this is an important consideration. While Kelli is very capable with complex care, consistent daily check-ins would have greatly improved our experience.

Isabelle house sat for us on short notice, looking after a cat and a dog. She gave us regular updates, asked questions when she had any, and kept tabs on a dog with dietary issues who was just getting over the flu. Our house was cleaner when we got home than it was when we left it. Highly recommended.
