Pet Sitting in Gowen

“I loved all the pictures she sent of my cat! My cat seemed to take a liking to her based on the pictures I saw :) She took care of her really well. Would definitely book her again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. My family treats dogs like they are human children, and your dog would be treated like a prince or princess. I ask that you ensure your dogs are all up to date on vaccinations and neutered/spade. Dogs that are trained off leash will do better at my home since our yard is not fenced in. I am home Friday - Sunday. If I have to leave for any reason, then my husband or adult son or adult daughter are always home. I do not have small children in my home. I have 14 acres of relatively secluded farmland. We throw a ball for our dogs and also walk them along the White Pine Trial each night. If it’s rainy or cold, we go into our indoor arena and let the dogs play and run around.

“Skyleigh is a wonderful caretaker who loves animals. She has a passion for her work as a veterinary assistant and it shows in her day to day life. I would trust her with the care of any of my pets!”

About: I have loved and owned dogs my entire life. Growing up we had two dogs, Charlie and Tuffy. As an adult, I raised two dogs, Sammy and Gracie, both lived until they were fifteen years old. I have a lot of experience and love for puppy training, playtime, long walks and senior care. I worked for a Community Outreach Program in Kent County, providing services for thirty three years and have recently retired. I am looking forward to using my free time and flexibility to do something I really enjoy. To me there is nothing more enjoyable than being around dogs. I will take care of your pet with love and respect. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone you don't know. You can trust that your pet is in very good hands with me.

“Katie was a huge help during a recent vacation. She visited with our dog, made sure she had everything she needed, played with her in our backyard, and took her for walks. I know our doggie really appreciated all that love and care. It really is priceless to know your furbaby is well cared for while you enjoy a getaway!”

“Emily is very responsible. She is very caring and makes any pet feel at ease when they meet her. Animals seem to love her right away!”

“Super sweet and flexible for my situations that arose, Abigail made my fur babies comfortable and they loved her.”

“Loved Lydia as a companion for our Maltese Mickey who just loves to sit next to a friendly human. Lydia was able to pitch in at the last minute and was extremely punctual and flexible. We wi book with Lydia again!”

“Betty R. was exceptional in her care for my dogs while I was at work. She made it her business to help myself and others in and around the county. The care is sincere and you won't have to worry about your dogs while you are away because they will be in good hands with Betty!”

“Joseph did an excellent job! Dogs love him and he documented the visit well! Would recommend!”

“Jenn performed consistently well beyond my expectations on every metric (e.g. communication, pet-care, flexibility, and coordination). From the first first visit with Light (my cat), to the final visit, I knew my pet was in great hands. I will definitely book her again in my future travels!”

“Whenever my Doberman goes to Sarah's for boarding or just for playtime, we call it "going to camp." She loves the attention, exercise, and open space to explore. It's great to have someone I trust pampering my furbaby whenever I take a trip or whenever she needs a break from my toddler!”

“Brooke has a very special love and care for all animals. She has owned and cared for a WIDE variety of pets and has taken exceptional care of each and every one. Brooke has taken care of may animals over the years when I was out of town and has always been dependable and has gone above and beyond for me and my pets. Since she loves animals combined with knowledge and experience, she is the ideal person to care for anyone needing a loving pet caregiver. Brooke comes highly recommended!”

“I had the privilege of having Jade be able to stop over to let my golden pup, Kaia, out and play with her for a short while daily. Jade was amazing and I am so glad Kaia got have such a good time every day. If it weren’t for my wife getting a job working from home, we would have had her do this a lot longer. Jade is very detailed with photos and descriptions, making it seem like you never left your fur baby in the first place. I’d recommend her to anyone; thank you Jade!”

“Have had her babysit my fur babies multiple times! She is reliable, trustworthy and quick to respond. Always gives detailed updates and the pets seem to like & trust her too. :)”

“Taylor has watched my dog before and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She treated my dog like it was her own and he had a blast! We have used her several times!”

“Heather is awesome! Our pup Luka loves her, and we can tell she loves visiting him just as much. She does a wonderful job letting us know how visits go (including if our dog uses the bathroom, drinks/eats, had play time, etc). Heather shares photos of her time with our pup as well, which is so fun to see while we are away. She does a wonderful job cleaning up any messes and caring for our little guy. Highly recommend Heather. We will continue to book her!”

About: I currently work full time in Grand Rapids. I have had two golden retrievers that I grew up with. Both made it to 10, so I have some experience with senior dogs. I love and miss them so much. I currently have three cats (lost one cat in 2021) and love them so much as well. I don’t have experience with bathing cats or dogs but love to cuddle and play with them. I have experience with cleaning up accidents, and cleaning up litter boxes. I work in Grand Rapids, so I’m not home during the day. However, I check their food and water at the beginning and end of the day. I also do their litter boxes either everyday or every other day. I play and snuggle daily. I keep my cats inside. I do not have a fenced in backyard so I would be keeping dogs on a leash outside while I’m outside with them.

“Anyone would be so lucky to have such a loving person taking care of their fur babies! With her energy, kind heart and loving attitude, she will gain their trust in no time. I have been blessed to have her watch our babies, I promise you will be too!”

“Brie is the best. She watched my two dogs and cat for a four day weekend. Kept us updated multiple times a day and our pets loved her. I strongly recommend Brie”
