“Sabrina was such a blessing to our family for the last few months! She was completely reliable and took such great care of our Jed, she truly understood his needs. Our senior dog needed to be let out during the day and have someone just spend time with him so he could get out some energy. Sabrina came and took such great care of him and took the cutest pictures. I would recommend her for any type of pet sitting. We will be reaching back out in the future when I’m back at work and our kid gets into daycare!”
“Eden was amazing. They had great communication with me throughout the whole time they were taking care of my baby. Eden always kept me informed, sent a lot of pictures, and I felt reassured that Roberto was being taken care of very well! My only concern is that Roberto likes Eden more than me 😂”
“Evelyn has been amazing to have as a pet sitter! I have two German shepherds who can be nervous of new people. Evelyn made the time to come and do multiple meet and greets before she stayed at my house. She left the house exactly as it was and was very respectful of everything. She also always sends great pics of my pups when she does a drop in visit during the day. 10/10 recommend Evelyn!!!”
“Shelby was a delightful to work with and she took very good care our two cats Precious and Shadow. Shelby was very caring with Precious and Shadow and we would definitely use her service in the future. We strongly recommend Shelby.”
“Taylor was wonderful! She kept me updated everyday and sent lots of pictures! She gave me peace of mind while we were gone. I will definitely ask her to take care of my 3 cats when we go out of town again :)”
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’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!

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 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 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.
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: I have two dogs of my own, and I’ve worked hard with dog training classes! I love dogs and spending time with them. I’ll treat your dog like they are my own! I’ve helped friends and family with their dogs, and they continue to ask and rely on me. I work full-time, but I always make time in my daily schedule with my dogs. I can fit your dog in and check as much as you request! My dogs are well loved! They have plenty of toys, taken for fetch every night, and walked multiple times a day. They are like our children to us. We spend all our time with them and love them to death. Anyone who knows me, can vouch for our sweet girls!
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🧡
