Tasha provided excellent care and communication throughout our 4-month old puppy's 10-day stay at her home. We received daily updates, photos, and often, videos. She monitored his eating and elimination behaviors, as well as ensuring he got out and played with the other dogs on a daily basis. We were very pleased and would not hesitate to choose Tasha for our next boarding need.

Zeus seemed to enjoy his time there… Trina said she spoiled him! Trina is good to communicate with and very flexible. We will use her again!!

Wonderful sitter to my 2 small breed pups, one of which requires a daily medication and eye on her behavior/habits due to some health issues!! Amanda is so good about communicating with you, sending you pictures and videos and asking you questions about anything she’s unsure about. Working with Amanda you get the bonus of her family loving and caring for your pets, too! I’ve used Amanda twice for multiple day stays and have been very happy both times. Thanks so much!!

Amazing! Third time Max stays with Loretta! Once again, looking at photos I feel like Max thinks that Loretta’s place is his place. To the point, I guess he becomes conflicted in between coming back home or staying there longer. 😂😂😂

Savannah was great! She sent me pictures and daily updates. Our little guy adjusted well to playing with other puppies and loved their hospitality. Definitely will rebook in the future. Thanks again for loving on Chase and setting my nerves aside.

Jamie was great with our high energy needs dog, Maggie. She’s a border collie/blue heeler mix that is a good dog, but only if she’s exercised her body (and mind) enough. We loved having picture updates over our long weekend away. And by the second night I knew everything would be okay and that Jamie had the compassion and care needed for a dog like Maggie. We’re SO happy to have found Jamie and will definitely be requesting her services again!!

About: Hi there! We're Sandy & Brad (& 16yo daughter, Clara) from Snowy River Farm in Freeport, MI. Our family has provided trusted pet & farm sitting service in the Kent, Barry & Ionia County areas for 6+ years. We've always had animals around whether it be dogs, cats, chickens, or sheep! We are a homeschooling family and we also work from home. Someone is almost always here! We're available to board dogs anytime we're not on vacation ourselves! We promise to treat your pet like family here at Snowy River Farm! Your pet will have the lower walkout level of the home to themselves. Brad works from home on that same level and we are all around very often. Our own small dogs will stay on a separate floor and not co-mingle your pet (unless specifically agreed by both parties). We can crate your dog(s) if that's your preference. Otherwise, a comfy chair with a blankie is just fine! ;-) *We prefer to do meet & greets first for everyone's benefit. Each dog we care for gets patient, loving, one-on-one attention tailored just for them. We’ll keep you connected with daily photo updates and little stories from their stay. If you want a sitter who treats your dog like family—offering room to roam, a peaceful farm setting, and plenty of cuddles—we’d love to welcome them into our home.

Fantastic pet sitter! I have a very stubborn and specific elderly dog and after talking with her once, I felt completely confident that he would be well taken care of. I received multiple updates throughout my dog’s stay, and she was even gracious enough to allow me to pick him up after midnight. Everything went smoothly and I can tell from my dog’s stay, as well as the sweet attitude of the other animals in her home, that this is a very loving place for pets! Thank you very much!

Tyke seemed to have a wonderful time based on the expressions on his face in the pictures she sent daily. He has been stress free since returning home. I hope to have Tyke stay again when we come to visit Michigan.

Rosalynda is super sweetie and attentive. My dog had a really good time with her family! He felt very comfortable and blended in well. It was nice that she sent pictures and updates. She went above and beyond to make sure he was accommodated which was really reassuring. I am glad definitively going to book her again because my dog loved hanging out with them so much!

Anastasia did a great job with Daisy and sent pictures every day. Her dog River was very friendly to Daisy and they played a lot together. I will definitely use Anastasias care again should we need dog sitting in the future.

About: Pets are family. I grew up with them and know that each animal is unique no matter if it is a puppy or a senior. I'm currently available for boarding on weekends with drop off after 3 pm on Thursday or Friday and pick up on Sunday up to 8pm. I have a fenced in yard and a Beagle to play with your pet to help him/her feel at home. Bring a crate if possible along with their favorite toy.

Kaylee was an amazing sitter for my two dogs. During their stay, one of my dogs got an ear infection and she was willing to bring him to his vet so he could be seen which isn’t close to her house. She sent daily updates and had great communication. I would highly recommend her as a sitter for your pups.

This was my first experience using Rover so I was pretty nervous about leaving my pup for the weekend, but as soon as I met Sarah and the family, it took all the stress out of the situation. They went above and beyond to make sure the stay was accommodating and their knowledge of animals blew me away. She was so tired from playing when we came to pick her up - I knew she had a blast and was well cared for.??
