“Josh was amazing with our puppy! Super kind, helpful, and quick to respond and Rover! Nova loved playing with the other dogs there and she was introduced to frisbee! Would highly recommend Josh as he takes the time to let your dog out to play/walk/social with other dogs!”

“Highly recommend Kris and family! I take my miniature dachshund Stuart here weekly guy. Stuart absolutely adores them and they always take the best care of him! Super responsive and flexible as well.”

“We had a family emergency which resulted in a completely different person coming to pick up Tanner. Renne was flexible and understanding, which we were so thankful for.”

About: Hello, I would love to care for fur baby, a dog or a bunny. I have cared for dogs since I was in middle school (that's a long time past, lol). Through my mom hood and beyond. Friends, family, neighbors, unknown ones have been very happy with my care. I'm looking to care for potty trained, small-ish sized, gentle, loving dogs. I do walk them 3 times a day, for I don't have a fenced area. I don't have any pets myself and no young kids. Your baby would have my full attention ! I also have experience with in-home bunny care. thank you, Deb I am retired so I can spoil your bunny or dog all day long. I have no children at home, so they'll get my full attention. I have no pets and truly miss one to love. I can care for your dog or bunny in my home, and possibly at your home. As long as pet is potty trained no need for a cage if not desired. I am one that loves to care for people and pets.
“Remi did a great job caring for Duckie! She had lots of updates and pictures. She took him on a long walk and gave him lots of snuggles. I will definitely be booking with Remi again:)”

“Paige and Matt are an awesome team. My dog suffers from extreme anxiety separation and is afraid of new people she meets. . In just 2 visits she has started to warm up to them. I am so grateful I found you two. Thank you 😊”

“Maggie was incredibly accommodating and patient with me and last minute request. My husky loved playing with her Luna, and I love the idea of her being in a home instead of a concrete kennel. I also liked that her sons gave my pets attention while they were there. 100% would recommend Maggie to anyone!”

“Leah was great in my first experience with doggy day care. Her communication skills are excellent and she was on time with meeting me in the morning to take my dog to her home. She texted me updates during the day on his status and was ready with my dog and his belongings packed up at pick up. I highly recommend her, and plan to use her services again in the near future!”

“Libby walked right in like she was visiting family and seemed very happy at the end of her visit. I could tell she enjoyed herself. I really appreciated the good care she received from Susan!”

About: Hi! My name is Camryn, and I am the biggest dog lover you’ll probably ever meet. I recently moved to Grand Rapids away from my families 100 lb Husky Lab mix and I miss taking care of pups and having their companionship. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities! I’ve cared for dogs belonging to neighbors, friends, and family over the years. I work for myself from home, which means my schedule is very flexible and I’m here to give your dog the best care. I always make sure every dog feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I ONLY TAKE ONE DOG AT A TIME (unless from the same household), so your dog will get my undivided attention.* My apartment complex is very dog friendly and has a dog park for playing as well as a lot of space for walks. I would love to pamper your fur baby! I work for myself from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I love having dogs around while I work and can easily adjust my routine for walks, playtime, or extra attention whenever it’s needed. Can be very flexible to your needs as I make my own schedule. I live in a second-story, very dog-friendly apartment with plenty of space and a big dog park for walks and playtime. I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I also have room for crates, toys, etc.
“This was the first time using someone to watch my 5 mo old puppy. So glad to have found Linda! Grace was well taken care of and came home exhausted after a day of play.”

About: We have been with dogs and other animals our whole life and love dogs. Our Shiba Inu, Sami, is our fourth baby. Your pet will get the attention and safety he/she needs and will be treated no different than our own. Our work hours are flexible and we prioritize our walks with our pet so it will be the same as others. Sami gets 2 walks and 3-4 bathroom breaks per day We treat your home with the same care and respect as ours and will follow your instructions very closely as instructed. Typically, bathroom break between 3-4 hours and at least 3 times per day for each dog
About: I’ve owned dogs all my life. I believe they are more than pets, they are trusted friends. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own. I work primarily from home. I’m away only 10-15 hours per week. I’m very flexible and willing to work with you for the love and benefit of your pet. I live in my new built home. There is a lot of area outside where we can walk, but I’ll never leave a dog unattended. I have my kids (aged 16 & 18) part time. They may be around. My kids love dogs.
About: Now offering "budget" visits! Sometimes your cat just needs a litter box refresh and food/water check or medication and doesn't want to interact with a sitter. I get it--one of my cats is like that! Depending on your location, I'm happy to offer a "budget" visit where the necessities will be addressed but in a shorter timeframe. 10 min for $10 or $12 for 15 min visit. Standard cat drop-in visits are $20 for 30 min. To book a budget visit, please book visits as a "regular" visit, and depending on your location and needs, I will approve and adjust your rate accordingly. About Me I've grown up with cats and currently have two senior cats, and our second puppy since December 2023. Rover is my way of helping my kids with an entrepreneurial adventure, especially during the summer. I do some visits solo (or if you request), otherwise I usually have kids with me. They are learning a lot about customer service, pet care, and money in the process. C A T S : Able to host overnight at $35/night. I can give medications including insulin shots, brush teeth, or brush your cat daily or as needed. Litter boxes, beds/perches and water provided. Please provide food your cat thrives on best for their stay. For drop-in cat visits, I will feed whatever food you provide for your cat--wet, raw, kibble, and/or exact portions as needed. Litter boxes will get a thorough sift, and water will be changed. I will do a quick barf/hairball scan of pet zone as so you don't have to come home to unexpected messes. D O G S: Walks can be 30, 45, or 60 minute routes. D R O P - I N V I S I T S : I will let your dog get some fresh air, food, and playtime and petted/brushed. I will also check area dog is staying while you are out for any mischief and messes and clean up as necessary. B O A R D I N G : We are not boarding dogs at this time unless your dog is on our "VIP" dog list. :-) We are able to do drop-in visits and dog walks year round and potentially board based on meet and greet assessment. We can board cats year round. My kids have learned to respect animals and see them as individuals with their own preferences and personalities. For the safety of all in my keep, I only board/daycare animals from one household at a time. All guests are kept in a separate area of the house from my pets.
“Marina was super flexible with us and our schedule, which we really appreciated! She also was very patient and understanding with my anxious dog. She provided a great, comfortable environment for me and we will definitely use her again in the future!”

Forest Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Tania was amazing. I felt confident that Freya was getting all of the care and attention she needed. Tania sent lots of adorable pictures and even videos and kept communication open. She responded very quickly to all questions, booking, and messaging while she had Freya. Tania also asked all necessary questions to make sure that she could take amazing care of Freya and that nothing was left out.

Katie & Austin were great! We had a great meeting ahead of time which made us and our dog feel really comfortable. They sent us pictures and updates throughout the day to give us peace of mind he was doing well. Would highly recommend Katie & Austin as dog sitters!

Maggie was incredibly accommodating and patient with me and last minute request. My husky loved playing with her Luna, and I love the idea of her being in a home instead of a concrete kennel. I also liked that her sons gave my pets attention while they were there. 100% would recommend Maggie to anyone!
