Dog Sitting in Fruitport

About: I’ve taken care of cats of all breeds since I was 12. I grew up with a dog my whole life, as well as a cat. I currently have a cat of my own and am looking to spend time with more animals. I’m currently a college student, available weekdays before 9am and after 3pm. My weekends are fully available. I offer longer hours in the afternoon. It’s important to find a sitter who takes care of your pets’ comfort. I offer pet toys for timid pets, and long walks for those with lots of energy

“Taylor did a great job watching Murphy (our cat) while we were on vacation. Murphy quickly bonded with Taylor and was very happy to see Taylor. Taylor followed the schedule and provided great pictures on Murphy during her visits.”

“Really great communication. Katherine is flexible, kind and honest. Took great care of our sick kitty by administering insulin injections. Really great all around. Will book again.”

“Jenn went above and beyond for these 2 drop ins. Our Shepard was clearly not ready for Rover Time but Jenn handled the situations perfectly. I'll apologize here, publicly, for Clios behaviour Jenn. The dog was not in the least cooperative. I'm very sorry, she won't be having drop ins again soon.”

“Best sitter I have used on Rover to date! You cannot go wrong booking with Allyson. She was communicative, thorough, and went above and beyond to make my pup feel comfortable while I was away. I will always book with her in the future! She provided plenty of pictures and was truly invested in taking care of my dog. Thank you so much Allyson! 🐶 Nico missed you!”

About: Though I primarily grew up with cats, I’ve always loved dogs and worked through a dog walking company a few years ago (the only reason I stopped was due to my vehicle being totaled after hitting black ice on the highway). I loved getting to know the personalities and tricks for each dog to keep them happy on walks and visits. For the last four years I’ve been working as a massage therapist and I often miss getting to interact with animals on a daily basis (aside from the ones at home that is). I understand the need for a caring and competent person to interact with and meet the needs of your furry loved one when your at work (or on vacation, etc.) and I am the person to show them that love and compassion. Im currently working part time at the end of the week so I have a good amount of time to take care of your fur baby. Though I'm not able to currently house or take care of pets at this moment, I have my two kitties at home that receive lots of love and attention.

About: I have 10 years experience watching hobby farms. Most of my time is spent watching pigs and chickens. I worked at a horse farm this past year handling 40+ horses a day. I frequently administer meds to various animals. I have a very flexible schedule to ensure your pets needs are met. I currently work for myself and can adjust my schedule according to your needs. I typically do 2-3 visits for daytime and need up to 6 hours at any point in the day for work. I prefer to spend as much time as possible with your pet to ensure their routine does not change and can adjust my schedule accordingly.

About: I like to call myself Maya Dolittle. I aim to make all my pet babies comfortable in whatever setting they may be in. Having a long history with pets, I have come to genuinely enjoy the sometimes passive, but always spontaneous care of pets. I’d love to meet your furry companion! I work full time, first shift, so I can tend to your pets anytime after! I love to travel, and would love to be there for your pet when you need a getaway. I live in an apartment, so the more ideal environment to tend to your pet is your household as they will be somewhere familiar and not have to be as contained.

“Everything went as expected and the critters were healthy and happy when I returned.”

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and currently have both a dog and a kitten of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets! I work in healthcare, which has made me very responsible, attentive, and detail oriented. I have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving environment while keeping you updated for peace of mind :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for my own dog and kitten every day. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel comfortable and happy. Because I work in healthcare, I’m very organized and plan my schedule carefully, which allows me to reliably commit to the pets I’m caring for. I make sure to dedicate quality time for visits, walks, and check-ins so pets aren’t rushed and receive my full attention. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I prioritize consistency, safety, and making sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can keep their environment as consistent and stress free as possible. This includes feeding schedules, fresh water, walks or litter care, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely while giving pets companionship and reassurance while their family is away. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with supervision and structured routines so pets feel secure. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and give them the same love and care I give my own!

“Jessica does a great job taking care of our cats. She even is able to give our stubborn cat her medicine! We have booked her multiple times and will continue to rebook!!”

About: What sets me apart is my extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs over the past seven years. I have experience with everything from puppies needing structure and training, to senior dogs who require extra physical support and patience. I’m very comfortable with daily walking, establishing good leash manners, and maintaining routines that help dogs feel secure and well-behaved. I’ve also cared for pets who require medications and special attention, and I’m confident adapting to each animal’s unique personality and needs. Several clients have consistently given me positive feedback about the level of care, attention, and trust I provide, which is something I take a lot of pride in. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I currently work in a school district in a full-time role, along with a part-time job that has flexible hours. During the school year, I typically have more availability on weekends and can provide care around my work schedule. I also have one week off approximately every six weeks, which allows for additional flexibility and availability during those times. In the summer, my hours become more flexible as I work fewer hours overall, which gives me even more availability throughout the week. Because of this, I’m able to consistently provide reliable care, including walks, check-ins, and in-home pet sitting depending on the client’s needs. I’m committed to making sure each pet receives attentive, dependable care that fits smoothly into both my schedule and the owner’s needs. I provide pet care in the client’s home, where I stay with the pets to keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow their normal routines closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions to ensure consistency and reduce stress while their owners are away. I do not have a fenced yard, so all care and exercise is provided through structured walks and supervised outdoor time. I am very attentive during walks and prioritize safety at all times. I am also comfortable caring for pets in my own home if needed, as I rent a pet-friendly space that allows animals. My focus is always on making sure each pet feels safe, cared for, and well looked after in whichever setting I’m providing care.

About: I am a huge animal lover and will gladly take care of any fur baby. I follow directions and strive to make sure that the animal and owner our satisfied with their service This is my main job as of this time, but I also have a volunteer work that is flexible for me and for the furbabies that have been entrusted to me. I always make sure that they have proper medication and food, whether that be healthy human food snacks or their own dog food. I also check for ticks and know how to remove them if necessary

About: I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I spent 7+ years in a professional kennel providing daily care, playtime, and light training—basically a full-time tail-wagging consultant. At home, I’ve trained and raised two German Shepherds as service K-9s, including my senior shepherd, who keeps me on my toes (and sometimes on the couch!). I also have experience with reactive or challenging dogs, as well as breeds that require extra patience and skill. I’ve fostered dogs, cared for puppies, and been a trusted pet and house sitter for many years, giving me the ability to adapt to a wide range of personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, training reinforcement, calm companionship, or managing tricky situations, I treat every pet like family… and sometimes part of my comedy routine. I’m excited to be new to the Grand Haven area and am looking forward to making pet care a big part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate regular walks, playtime, or longer visits as needed. Weekdays and weekends are both open for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to work with pets of all ages and energy levels. I’d love to become a reliable, go-to caregiver for local pets and their families, so I’m open to recurring bookings or longer-term arrangements. Your furry friends will get consistent care, plenty of love, and someone who truly enjoys being around them every day! Pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a calm, secure space with consistent routines, supervision, and plenty of play and enrichment. I have experience with all breeds and temperaments, including reactive or high-energy pets, and treat every home and pet as if they were my own, building trust through patient, loving care.

“Carl was great for us! He let out and walked our dog 3x a week. He was very punctual, responsive, and kept us updated every day. We really appreciated having him.”

About: I’ve watched pets for a while. I love being active, relaxing with the dogs, and providing them with a safe environment. I give the animals all my attention. I am currently taking a semester off of college; therefore, I have a bit of free time. I coach volleyball, babysit, and substitute teach occasionally. I watch pets in their own homes to make them feel safe and comfortable. I obey the parents rules and provide the pets with the best care.

“So grateful for Nick’s drop in service this past weekend. Our pups’ dog sense took right to him, and he was very thorough and attentive to all their needs. Love getting the pictures and knowing they both got the attention they are used to. Highly recommend Nick; we will be using his services I. the future for sure…”

“Due to some outside work being done when Britney did her drop by visit, she went above and beyond taking our dogs for a walk up the street on her first visit. She is very thorough and timely with her communication”
