About: I was born into a house with 2 cats, and adopted my puppy (who passed away last year) when I was 6. My neighbor is a vet tech with many different animals in house, and has given me lots of help and advice. Last summer I spent a week at my future college beginning my pre-veterinarian training, and am going into the pre-vet program this fall! This is my only job for the summer, so I will be completely committed to caring for your pets for you! I want your pet to enjoy loving quality time no matter what. I am very attentive to pets’ needs, and will be active with them as much as they (and you) wish. Walks, play time, feeding, cleaning, and meds if needed are all happily provided.

“Judy was amazing! I had a rather chaotic, last-minute request and she was patient, flexible, and kind about the whole situation. Best of all, she took fantastic care of my pup. I won't hesitate to call on her services again.”


About: I got my first dog when I was ten and had him for a good fifteen years. I still miss him constantly but playing and caring for other animals helps. I'm good with all dogs puppies-elderly and toy-BIG My main focus right now is school but it’s online and very flexible so I’m currently looking for ways to make money that are also flexible I make sure the animals have access to water and their stimulants constantly and keep things like their food and walk times as close to their regular schedule as possible as possible

About: I’m a true animal lover who’s been around pets my whole life! With 3 years of experience working at a pet boarding company, as well as dogs and cats of my own, I’ve cared for all types of animals. I love meeting new pets and can provide personalized care that works best for them and you! As a college student at GVSU studying elementary education, I bring a gentle, patient approach to every pet I care for. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog needing extra love, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable and happy. I will send plenty of updates while your fur baby is in my care and treat them as my own. I'm more than willing to provide references! check out my dog-walking adventures on Instagram: stroll_with_sarah. I am currently nannying for the summer, but very available for walking, drop ins, and dog sitting. I'm home for the summer in grand haven and would love to help with your pet care needs! I offer drop-in visits at my clients' homes, where I focus on providing a safe and loving environment for their pets. During these visits, I may feed, let the dog outside, play, or provide any other care your pet needs to stay happy and healthy. While I don’t offer care in my own home, I ensure every pet feels comfortable and cared for in their own familiar space.

“This guy is phenomenal and I can't recommend him enough. A gentleman and a scholar. Justin has done an amazing job with my dad's dog. Dad is aging and recently injured his back, so Buddy hasn't gotten the training or exercise he needs. Within 3 walks, Buddy, who is petrified of everything, had warmed up to him. Justin went the extra mile, teaching Buddy how to leash walk properly and starting him on commands. The exercise for buddy has given my dad a chance to start actually resting his back and recover. Justin has been patient with Dad and incredibly accommodating with our situation of me being far away while doing this and helping us meet Buddy's goals. I'll definitely book his services again. He's given me great feedback on Buddy's progress, seems to genuinely care about him and empathize with us, and has even given me reassurance while I'm frantically try to care for my dad from a distance. Just a side note that we are trying to get dad into an assisted living community and prepare Buddy to go with him because my dad is so lonely otherwise. (It's good for Buddy too, who adores dad and will mellow out as he matures.) Justin's work has given me the hope that we can reach that goal.”


About: I have cared for the pets of friends and family over the last decade. I have utilized Rover services all over the country for my own beloved dog and am excited to be of service to other pet lovers. Usually I will be away from home about 5 hours max on average Monday through Friday. Weekends vary some but not usually away more than 3 Our home is able to be divided or cohesive. If your pet prefers a quiet space, we can provide that. I am willing and able to do multiple daily walks and live on a culdasac away from traffic. I have a large puppy that gets along with others but I do not force the interaction and can easily separate.

About: ’m a reliable pet sitter because I genuinely love animals, follow care instructions closely, and ensure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. You can count on me every time. I am currently searching for a part time job and hoping to do pet sitting more frequently as a side gig! Ill be available any day and any time you feel comfortable! Caring for pets in clients’ homes means following their routine closely, providing love and companionship, and respecting the home. I ensure pets are fed, exercised, and safe, while keeping owners updated and the home tidy.


“Jennifer is great. Our dog was immediately comfortable with her and she was available short notice from us which we appreciated! Thanks for taking care of our fur baby Jennifer!”

About: Growing up my family always owned one or two golden retrievers at a time and instantly fell in love with the breed. I worked at a dog boarding/day care facility for about 3 years. I’ve worked with many different types of breeds along with all sorts of temperaments. With that came taking care of dogs of ALL ages. I’ve handled up to 15 large dogs at a time, also handling cats. Absolutely loved my job and hope to continue working with animals:) As of right now my schedule is very flexible. Monday-Friday work great along with most weekends (best to have a few days notice for weekend visits). I also understand how tricky work schedules can be and I would be willing to check in on any times of the day. I was lucky enough to grow up with a mom that did full time pet sitting at one point and got to tag along on all her trips. I also pet sit for family and friends. Including overnights, walks, and administering medications, eye drops, pills, ect. So, I know how important it is to be mindful of someone’s else’s home and their four-legged (sometimes three) loved ones.

About: I have loved all animals as long as I can remember! My pet care experiences vary from anxious puppies to bearded dragons! I have had successful experiences with rodents such as guinea pigs, dogs, cats, and reptiles. While taking care of your pet I would do my best to provide them with as much love and care as you would! I am currently attending high school but would be able to take care of your pet immediately after that! I could easily fit your animals care into my every day schedule since it is already apart of my daily life! For boarding services, I would do my best to make sure your animal is as comfortable as possible. We all know how stressful sleeping in a new place can be and I would use all of my resources to make sure that your pet would be as pleasant as possible. For other services I would do the same and make sure your animal has a great time with me and would adjust my schedule around their needs.

“Jamie is so good with Winston! She was very careful to understand his special needs and quirks. We are so happy to have had her help us and would definitely recommend her to my friends! :-)”



“Kristen was wonderful! She was responsive, reliable, and took great care of our very shy and particular German shepherd. She sent so many good pictures and updates and she allowed Mav to drag her wherever he wanted 😂 we came home to a happy, healthy dog and we will definitely be using her again to watch Mav!”



About: I’ve always loved dogs and apart from having my own, I’ve been lucky to have experience many others! From puppies to senior dogs who need medicine, I try to do as much as I can to make sure they’re comfortable! I have part time work and classes, so I’m very flexible in when I can walk or watch pets! If I know in advance, it’s pretty easy for me to move things around. I don’t have a dog in my current home, but I offer pretty constant attention to pets no matter what I’m doing. I also make sure to play enough to get them tired out for a good sleep!

I live alone, in a spacious apartment in Logan Square. I am available to be attentive to your pet's needs, and find that animals take to me naturally. If caring for them in your home, I will follow any and all guidelines you outline for their care, and for caring for them in your abode.

Our dogs love to go on the golf cart and she takes them out for rides. Luna loves to chase the ball and Audrey plays with her while Ozzy likes to watch. It is obvious she loves animals.”

Rachel M.
“I can’t think of anyone more naturally gifted with animals than Rachel Meininger. From the time she was little, Rachel has had a deep love and connection with pets—especially dogs and cats. They are drawn to her, and she has an incredible way of instantly earning their trust and affection. When Rachel is home from college, our pets completely abandon us and become hers. They sleep in her bed, follow her everywhere, and soak up the extra love and attention she showers on them. She spoils them in the best possible way—with affection, playtime, and genuine care. Rachel is responsible, compassionate, and truly understands what it means to care for someone else's beloved pet. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, you won’t find anyone better.”


Arianna K.
“I highly recommend Arianna as a pet sitter. She has had training and experience in pet sitting, and she deeply loves and respects animals. Arianna has been involved in several dog-training classes. Further, she has had extensive responsibility over the years for the care of three dogs and five cats. In addition, over the years, she has had the responsibility of pet sitting (both cats and dogs), including cat sitting for us. Because she loves animals so much, she always gives the pets lots of time in play and in love. In addition to her knowledge and experience in caring for pets, Arianna is an extremely conscientious individual. When she commits to something, she will give it 100% (and more if that were possible). For all these reasons, anyone could be assured that with Arianna their pet would receive the best of care and that they would return home to a happy and healthy pet.”
