About: What sets me apart is the diversity and depth of my experience. I have cared for animals in AZA Accredited Zoos and Aquariums in addition to beloved pets. I am a Certified Canine Training and Behavior Specialist (CCTBS) with the Animal Behavior Institute, and my methods are backed by empirical scientific evidence. No matter what the service, I treat my responsibilities with the utmost care and attentiveness. I am also more than happy to accept reactive and fear-aggressive pups, for which much of my experience involves. :) I am currently available all mornings and early-mid afternoon's for walks and check-ins! My other occupation as a driving instructor affords me very flexible hours. I treat all animals with respect and kindness. My approach is positive reinforcement only - gentle, firm and backed by real science. With my experience caring for animals of all ability levels and temperaments, I am comfortable administering any medications. The same care, attentiveness, and professionalism applies to all of my work.
About: I’ve always had a deep love for four-legged friends, and there's nothing more rewarding than seeing a dog happy and loved! 🐾 I’ve cared for several of my neighbors' dogs over the years, offering walks, playtime, and even TV time when they’re feeling lonely. Every dog deserves attention, love, and a little extra care, and that’s exactly what I provide. Whether it's cuddles, a good play session, or just some company, I treat every dog like my own furry family member! 🐶💕 I am self-employed on my farm Five and a Half North Farm, LLC, so I have ample time in my schedule daily. I have cared for many types of pets, including hamsters, bunnies, dogs, cats, and chickens. I have a small fenced area in my yard for pets to run. I generally care for pets in other people's homes and respect the instructions for each pets needs.
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 had animals in my life since the age of five, and I have regularly taken care of family and friends animals. I've taken multiple classes on animal psychology and have a broad understanding of what dietary needs a domesticated animal. I have an open schedule; so once I know the time I'm needed I can rearrange my schedule to fit the need of the current time, I have the ability to go at a moment notice if need be I have a fenced in yard with two metal latch fences and reinforced posts in my main yard. I also have a 1-year-old cat named Toad who is predominantly an indoor cat.
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I've been 5 years old. Got my own cat at 10. I've been surrounded by a dog or cat since then. i'm not working at all and looking for a job to do. I got loads of energy and the cold don't bother me much anyways. I just walk dogs. But Ill make sure your dogs are taken care of and have extra water and a bowl every time I take em for a walk.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for decades. I would love the opportunity to watch your pets. I do have a dog of my own. I am retired so I have plenty of time to watch your pets. Give me a try. I’m looking g forward to it. Thank you. I have one small dog named Gracie. I would walk your dog on a leash. Attention given to your pet. Thank you for your business.
About: I grew up in a household that rarely had less than 3 dogs at a time. I love all types of dogs - big, small, mutt or purebred - they all have hearts of gold. Contact me if your pup (or any other fur babies) needs some extra attention (either in-home or in my home), exercise, or boarding! All breeds/sizes/ages welcome. Your pet will receive plenty of care, attention and love. I have extensive experience working with anxious pups. My parents’ dog shakes/cries at any loud noise, the smell of bacon cooking (yes, really... makes her think of the smoke detector going off), etc. I’ve always been able to calm her down. I have also worked with skittish and aggressive dogs. My friend has a pup that bites/barks at almost everyone, but he now cuddles up and cries of excitement whenever I come over. I am currently self-employed, and my schedule is very flexible. I can work with your schedule. I also accept last minute bookings as well, so don't hesitate to reach out! I live in a spacious duplex and welcome boarding. Animals are allowed to explore and are allowed on the furniture if they so choose. I am more than happy to house-sit too--I can travel upwards of 50 miles for stays and I always leave homes in the same condition I found them.
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was really little and grew up around them. I’ve trained both of my current dogs right now and they are well-behaved. i’m currently working a part-time job so I have a lot of extra time to take care and tend to all of your dogs needs! I have two super friendly dogs if you would like your dog to have a companion. I also have a large yard with lots of space for playing and running.
About: I handled mostly cats growing up. I work best with Huskies as that is one of my favorite breeds, but all dogs are welcome! I ensure all pets are very happy as much as possible. As of now I'm gonna be a First Responder, so I can take walks around 40 minutes ahead of time. I'm always happy to help! I always ensure pets of all kind are treated with the upmost respect. I handle somewhat hostile cats with strict guidelines and they have always listened when given enough time. I always ensure I leave my house with my pets being happy.

Jared A.Star Sitter
“Jared walked my dog for many months - he was one of a few folks who regularly walked her and took her on dog playdates. Whenever Jared opened the door to get Tuuli and she heard his voice, she would RUN to the door with so much excitement. She absolutely adored him. Jared was always very gentle with Tuuli and treated her with so much love. I would highly recommend him for any kind of pet care!”
Stephanie N.
“Stephanie is an animal lover to her core. Not only does she care lovingly for her own critters (dogs, cats, chickens) but also loves looking after those belonging to others. She has looked after our pets on several occasions and we always knew they were in good hands. No worries! Thank you Stephanie!”

Diego R.
“Diego has always been amazing with my beagle, Jewel. As a National Guard Soldier I often had weekends where I would be away from home at Drill. He would care for her like she was royalty. Jewel would get her daily exercise, was always fed the appropriate amount (and kept on her diet) even with her food restrictions, and was always returned to me as a VERY happy pup. He even gave her a bath for me once when she got very muddy while they were playing outside.”

Frances B.
“I know Fran Bovee to be an excellent animal lover! She has always had a dog and sometimes a cat. Many times taking care of strays and rescuing wildlife. She even makes habitat for animals. Personally, I have left my dogs in her care both at her house and as a care at mine while I am gone. When I am on vacation she would be my go to for taking care of the chickens as well. What I love most about Fran is that she has taken on my children as her own grandchildren and goes way above and beyond caring for them. I know Fran also takes care of many other pets for people, has been trusted to watch homes, and has many times worked with elderly in a multitude of ways. The last time I came to visit her she was actually sad that I did not bring my dog with me. I believe Fran to be an excellent candidate to work for Rover!”
Taylor K.
“I’ve known Taylor for around 3 years now and she’s been an awesome person since we’ve met. She is very caring and down to Earth and is always willing to go out of her way to assist others if needed. She has taken care of my cat while I have been on vacation several times, and Pekoe loves hanging out with Taylor. She has also been great with dogs, as she has dog sat many times before in the past as well.”
