“Nice day for a walk”



“Taylor was amazing! Yesterday was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about my pup being home alone... Taylor called me at work (per my request) so that I could go over how to get into my house, etc. and she calmed my nerves too :) when she got there, he had tore up his mattress pad in his kennel- she cleaned it up so that he couldn’t eat it. She then walked him, took pictures for me and played with him enough to tire him out for a bit. She was so good with him anc it was so appreciated! ❤️❤️”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud rescue dog parent with over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. I know firsthand how tough it can be to find affordable, trustworthy help—especially when juggling a busy schedule. That’s what inspired me to become a Rover sitter: to offer dependable, compassionate care for your pets when you need it most. My two pups (a spunky senior Jack Russell/Heeler mix and a mid-aged Husky/Heeler) keep me active and on my toes, and I frequently care for my sister-in-law's dogs as well. I’m experienced with dogs who need a little extra TLC, including those on special diets, daily medications, or unique routines. Whether you need someone to drop in for a quick potty break or want your dog to feel at home while you're away, I treat every pet like family—with patience, attention, and love. I'm flexible! I currently work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule during the days. I work about ~10-15 hours a week and don't have a set 9-5 type schedule. I can do my work whenever, wherever! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs at home. I treat my dogs like they are my BABIES - they get a ton of attention, pets, belly rubs, walks, and kisses. We do a lot of walks in our neighborhood and like to bring our pets on adventures.

About: I have had pets my entire life. I knew very young that I wanted to work with animals. I have a great love and compassion for them. I will take great care of your babies! I have a lot of experience caring and working with dogs. I have hobby farm experience (dogs, cats, chickens and a horse) as well. I am a Licensed Veterinary Nurse, therefore, I am educated in many aspects of caring for your pet. I know what to look for in case of illness, injury, etc. I can also do some other tasks, like toe nail trims, ear cleanings, etc. I am a dependable, trustworthy person who knows how important your pets are to you. I look forward to caring for your pets and/or walking your dog.

“Sabrina was great. I needed someone last minute as my regular dog walker was going out of town. My dog has anxiety and takes time to warm up to people so I was worried he’d have a hard time. Sabrina was patient and all went well. I will most definitely book with her again.”


About: I absolutely love animals and I have enough energy to keep up with them too! I have experience in veterinary background which ensures I am trained to catch any early health issues. I can give medication on a schedule or keep up with special needs as well :) I work as a Muskegon county park ranger in the mornings and afternoons except Mondays and Tuesdays. I am very comfortable with commuting as I live in Ludgington. I can be as flexible as you need, whether it be boarding, house sitting, or dropping in for a playdate before or after work! I have a fully fenced in back yard with lots of room to play both my cat and my dog get along well with other animals! Both are fully up to date on all vaccines and neutered! I also have a room set aside for my cat that is dog free which could be shared with other cats. I am comfortable with crating for longer stays and my dog is crate trained as well!

About: I’ve grown up with animals and have always done pet care on the side since high school. Im passionate about getting animals outside and moving! Im currently working a full time job Monday-Friday from 8-4. After work and every weekend I am free to provide care and fun for your pets! We have a large amount of land for your dog to play on! I am fit and active and am willing to take your dog on walks for as long as they need and want (with lots of sniff breaks)

About: I grew up with labs my whole life so I’m very use to large dogs! The endless shedding doesn’t scare me away! I truly love all dog breeds though and I’m willing to open up to even the moody ones! I work full time 8:30-5:00 but I do have an hour lunch that I can make work for potty breaks and short walks! I can also stop by before and after work and I’m willing to stay during night weeknights too on occasion. I have a fiancé and two kids so I prefer to be home during week nights but with a notice in advance I can make it work. I am a bit OCD with my own pet care. My cat has an enclosure for his litter box with foam flooring for underneath the enclosure. I keep a broom, a shop vac and a swifter all just for his area. He has special prescription food and I keep his diet on a schedule. He gets lots of love daily and I plan provide the same care for your pets!

About: I have had multiple dogs since I was little and get along with all shapes and sizes. I used to go door-to-door and no matter if it was a random dog or strays, that dog and me were becoming besties. I work from home Monday-Friday, so if you have internet, I can work there or I can just drop in. My schedule is pretty flexible, but I just need to know in advance. I can care for the pet in any way that you ask- bathing, food, potty breaks, walks, etc. I am pretty flexible with what kind of care is needed.

About: I have cared for dogs ever since I was a young teen! I have been chosen by neighbors, family friends, and others to dog sit while away, walk their dogs, and play with them! I have two amazing cats and currently live in a household with six animals, my two cats and four dogs and I truly love every second of it. It’s always been a passion of mine to care for animals. I’m currently working in obtaining my degrees to become a wildlife biologist so I can truly put that passion to good use! Caring for your pets in your own home, I will be respectful, responsible, and considerate of your home and belongings. I will make sure your dogs and/or cats have the best time ever, showering them with lots of love and playtime and even quiet company if that’s preferred. If walking and rough-housing is in the plan, I will make sure your fur baby gets all that extra energy out.

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a kid as I come from a big dog loving family! Starting with my personal and family experience: I have 2 dogs of my own: Pretzel who’s a Lab/Beagle mix and Wallace who is Lab/Heeler/Terrier mix! I have plenty of experience watching my sisters dogs, my best friends dogs, and my parents dogs. In college, I had a part-time job dropping in on a dog whose owner worked in the medical field and would have long shifts. I would go play with her, take her out to go potty and just spend time with her so she wasn’t alone for long periods of time! Aside from pet sitting for family and friends regularly, I don’t have a lot of experience outside of that; but it has always been a dream of mine to get a business like this running so I can spend my time doing what I love most, being around and caring for dogs! I feel comfortable with all breeds and sizes! Just some of the breeds I have interacted with are Dachshund, Beagle/Dachshund mix, Lab/Beagle mix, Rottweiler, Catahoula Leopard, Anatolian Shepherd, Goldendoodle, Lab/Doberman mix, and Pomskey. I am really excited about this new adventure and I hope you will pick me as your sitter! Currently I work on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays, so I have plenty of time in between to spend with other pups! I hope at some point I could have this replace my current job! Unfortunately, my dogs aren’t the most friendly with others so I cannot offer services in my home. However, there is potential for me to have pets outside in my fenced in area for some outdoor playtime! Depending on my availability I am okay with overnights at your house if you are on vacation! I would treat your pets like they were my own and follow any instructions you have! Lastly, I offer dog walking services. I would love the exercise just as much as your pup would!!

About: I've been pet sitting since I was 16 and have loved every second of it. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and even ducks, chickens, and goats! I will make sure that your pet gets as much love, care, and attention as they need while you are away. I’m a full time graduate student in Ferris State’s PharmD program, so when I’m not in class, I will be able to provide all of the love and care your pet needs! Making sure your pet is safe and well cared for is my top priority. I would love to take them on walks, play outside, and give them all the love they deserve while you're away. If your pet isn't as active or isn't an outdoor animal, I'm happy to provide indoor love and care as well.

About: ♡pricing is flexable message me for details I have pet care experience of all kinds including breeding and stud service, shots and weening. We have a large open floor plan with a 4 stall garage to roam. Price will vary if dog is not fully potty trained or in heat during their stay. I am a stay at home entrepreneur allowing me to be present with pets while they are here. I am also a self taught groomer! I will only be booking appointments on days that I can be fully present and involved with the pets scheduled. My husband and I believe this is a great opportunity to be able to love on all kinds of different breeds as our own and a fun way to take care of some of the most precious pets. * I am available for drop ins(potty breaks and walks) in the hudsonville-jenison area on Tuesdays and Thursdays aswell! There are no cats or dogs here (unless confirmed that its okay to board at the same time as another families pet) so you won't have to worry about your pet getting along with anyone else while they are here. Our yard is not fenced but we do have fenced in areas.Be sure to check your collars and leashes of any wear and tears before dropping them off💛 If your dog is medium-giant we prefer them to have a calm demeanor (couch potato) if not,but this is not a requirement 😉 tell me about your dog and we will see if it will be a good fit🧡

About: I adore dogs and exercise. I will take dogs out on long and enjoyable walks and give them another reason to love life!! I’ll give so much attention and exercise care to your dogs! I am working a full time job from home. I am free to walk dogs in the evenings after work, weekends, and maybe walks on my lunch breaks during the middle of the day. I have a small little 2 year old dog at home that has taught me the love and attention necessary to raise a happy dog and how to show them lots of love. I have had many dogs as I grew up as well so I know how to take care of a dog that I didn’t have a direct hand in training. I love all dogs and want them to non stop tail wag their way through life.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life from family pets to neighbors or friends pets. I have a 3-year old dog myself and have cared for senior dogs and cats along with puppies and kittens. I also have experience administering medication to both cats and dogs. I currently work a job where I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have availability any weekend and some weekdays! Any pet I have met I have loved as my own! I currently do not allow boarding at my house but would love to come to your home where your pet will feel the most comfortable and care for them! I am very active so if that is what your dog needs, I am there for that as well as a good nap sesh on the couch! I can work around any pets needs.

“Alexis was awesome! I could tell from the moment she arrived that she really loves animals. She was polite and paid attention to all instructions and suggestions. My dogs seemed happy and relaxed when I got home.”


About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 13 both small and large. Family members and family friends have relied on me to make sure that their furry companions get the care that they need. I also have experience handling senior dogs and giving medication if needed. I currently have open availability for rover requests up until end of June then school starts so I’ll have open availability Thursday-Sunday and will be in school from 8:30am-4:30pm Monday-Wednesday. For any booking requests depending on the duration of time I ask please book a week in advance:) Whether it's checking in, caring for your pet in your home, or just helping them get in their exercise I will ensure that they are watched after promptly! For walking services there are plenty of areas ear me I can take them for walks or to just have fun at. Check-ins will be on time and thoroughly communicated with owners. Any house sitting I ensure frequent updates to ease any worries an owner may have.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. over the years I have started dog sitting for neighbors and friends and have really grown to enjoy it. I treat any dog like it’s my own child. I am currently doing my radiology clinicals full time so my schedule is a little busy during the week days. However my evenings and weekends are typically open. I would be more than happy to stay the night to watch and cuddle your furry babies. I am also available for dog walking as well. I am willing to travel some depending on your location, flexible rates. I’m currently in Radiology clinicals Mon-Thu 8:30 am-5pm. I am available in the evenings to walk your dog or stay over night with them. I am also available on weekend any time. I care for pets in my clients home by feeding/watering them, ensuring they get their daily exercise in, taking them out for potty breaks, and ensuring they get the love and attention they need.

About: I worked at Chow Hound for a year and I absolutely loved my job, getting to see animals while at work was awesome! I learned responsibilities from a very young age since I always wanted to have multiple pets at home; my dad used always tell me if I can show him I know how to take care of the pet, and show him everything I needed to take care of her/him, then I would be able to get one. Over the course of 10 years, I had a pet rabbit for 10 years, hermit crabs, hamsters, mice, rats, ferrets, and a leopard gecko. I only go to high school until 11:30 am. I also play volleyball, and I have practice Mondays and Wednesdays 7-9 pm. So I am able to provide pet care everyday of the week, after 11:30, or on Mondays and Wednesday's before 6:00 pm. I don’t have any now, but in the past I have had hamsters, rats, mice, hermit crabs, a ferret, a leopard gecko, and my favorite girl, who I had for 10 years was my rabbit, her name was Piper, but we always called her “bunny”. I always make sure my pets get the attention and love they crave, always have fresh food and water, and watch their behavior, making sure they are well.

She has taken them for walks around the yard and spending time playing with them! She has been super responsive and even has sent us updates when we have been out of town! We have felt super confident having her watch our two dogs! Also, we got back from a trip and she had already left and when we let the dogs out they didn’t care that we were home, they went running around the house looking for Emily! She is definitely the person to hire!”
