Dog Boarding Grand Rapids

“Erin was amazing! She took such great care of Gus and for a long time! (9 nights) Gus had so much fun and she sent us updates multiple times a day. I had peace of mind the entire time and was never worried about my boy. We will absolutely be going back to Erin!”

“Fantastic service! Very accommodating to my travel schedule with pick-up & drop-off. Great communication in very timely way including daily updates. Very knowledgeable of dogs, and how she introduced my dog to her two. Even allowed me to meet her pups. I’m in process of booking again, and very grateful for Lisa and her thorough care of Winston!”

“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”

“LaTonya was amazing! I left my energetic six month old puppy with her right in the middle of a bad teething stage and she was great! She sent multiple photos throughout the day along with frequent updates on how he was doing! My puppy had never been away from me for a night or stayed with anyone else and she was SO patient with him! Her having her own dogs is a HUGE plus since I think it was a big reason why my puppy got settled so quickly. I would recommned her to anyone!”

About: We’re big dog people and absolutely believe that pets are family. We have our own dog and have loved caring for the dogs of family and friends over the years. We also use Rover ourselves, so we know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust to take care of your pet. We want to provide that same feeling of love, care, and peace of mind for other pet parents. Our goal is for your pup to feel happy, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away! 🐾❤️ My husband and I both work full-time, but I’m a teacher, so I have more flexibility during the summer and school breaks. We’re also available most evenings and weekends throughout the year. We love spending time with dogs and are happy to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. We’ll work with your schedule to make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need while you’re away. We want every pup in our care to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. We have a fenced-in yard and our own friendly dog who loves having company! We’re happy to keep your pup’s normal routine, whether that means specific feeding times, walks, crate time, or anything else that helps them feel comfortable. We’re also happy to meet beforehand so you and your pup can get to know us and make sure it feels like a good fit. As Rover users ourselves, we know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pet. Pets are family to us, and we want you to feel that same love and peace of mind while your pup is with us. We’ll keep you updated with lots of pictures along the way, too! 🐶❤️

“I recently boarded my dog, Wolfie, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. He was walked every day, and it was clear he had a fantastic time. The picture updates were a wonderful touch; they showed just how happy he was. Jayden and his family who took care of Wolfie was truly wonderful, providing exceptional service and demonstrating a high level of professionalism. The quality of care was excellent, and the price was very affordable for the outstanding service received. Overall, I highly recommend this dog boarding service. Wolfie had a great time, and I appreciate the peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”

“What can I say about Kristie? She was incredible with my pup. He’s a bit of a finicky boy, and this was his first experience not at a kennel while dad was away. After asking great questions to get an understanding m, we did a meet and greet and Reggie seemed to enjoy, so we went ahead with the booking. Throughout my 7 day trip, I got plenty of updates and pics (peep the gallery). Kristie took the time to get to know the pup, checked in with me to get insights, and tailored her interactions and expectations to match my goober’s needs. 10/10 recommend, and hope to rebook whenever I need a sitter!”

“Debra did great with our young puppy! We were worried when we dropped him off because he’s been so shy and scared of everything at home. Debra’s communication was amazing and she kept us up to date on how the little guy was doing. After bringing him back home he’s now super engaged, exploring a lot more, playful, and the complete opposite of shy. Clearly he had a very positive experience with his stay. We will absolutely use Debra again in the future!”

“My pup is part of the family at Barbs house. I get daily pictures and updates of all the adventures. Eases up the guilt of not taking the pup with me.”

Brianna G.

“Lillian and Jeremy are excellent sitters to my dog Smokey! They are always my number one choice everytime I leave town. My dog Smokey loves them and their two lovely dogs that are his friends now! They are excellent communicators and are very prompt with responding, and they also send me picture updates of my pet. I will continue to rebook with them!”

“Leo seemed to feel right at home with Sandy. Her house is very well maintained. She is very friendly, and took good care of Leo. I will consider Sandy to watch Leo again with no question.”

Carol D.

“Emily did a fantastic job watching my pup, especially considering he got injured right before his stay! I felt like he was in safe hands with her! Will definitely be returning.”

Taylor C.

“Wow! Billiejean did an amazing job taking care of my pups while I was away. I can tell that they felt very happy and loved because every picture she sent me (which I'm so thankful she even printed me off a few pics ❤️😎) they looked so happy and so relaxed. That means a lot and it helps put my heart at ease knowing that I found someone that cares about them just as much as I do! Highly recommended caretaker! A+++ rating!”

About: I have a genuine love for animals and enjoy providing them with safe, loving and attentive care. I am comfortable, caring for puppies, including helping with basic training, routines and patience as they learn. I also understand the special attention and gentle care, senior dogs need. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable happy and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family! Pet sitting will be an important part of my daily and weekly routine. I will plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, making sure they receive constant feeding times, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I will provide attentive supervision throughout the day and maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate each pets individual needs. I am committed to being reliable, responsible and making sure every pet feels comfortable safe and cared for while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety comfort and happiness are our top priorities I provide a clean, calm and loving environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I will follow their feeding schedules, exercise routines, and special care needs. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect making sure they feel right at home while receiving plenty of love and attention.

About: My dogs are my babies. ❤️ If you feel the same way, we already have something important in common! I started dog walking because I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your precious pups. My husband and I adopted two rescue dogs, Myrtle and Daisy, who came to us with potty and behavioral challenges after being poorly cared for in a puppy mill. With patience and love, they’ve blossomed into two silly, fun-loving dogs who are an important part of our family. I’m not a trainer, groomer, or vet tech—I’m simply a devoted pet parent who understands how much peace of mind matters when you’re leaving your “babies” with someone else. I’d love the opportunity to be a trusted friend to you and your pups! 🐾 I’m available for weekday walks starting around 3:30 PM. I enjoy getting outside and spending time with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. My own dogs also keep me familiar with the importance of consistency, attention, and lots of love! On weekends, I am available for boarding from Friday evening to Sunday evening. To ensure dog safety, we crate all dogs when humans are away. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and patience. I’ll also keep you updated during visits so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Great communication - checked in with us daily while we were away. She truly cared about the well being of our dog. We will use her again! :)”

“Summer was very helpful and she took in Pixie at the last minute. She is very responsive and sent us pictures of Pixie.”

“We could tell that Stella enjoyed her time with Betsy & Gordon and their children. We were very selective in our selected sitters leading up to our European vacation. This was our first out of the country vacation away from Stella. Betsy and Gordon provided us with great communication leading up to the booking, and great communication throughout. Easing my fur momma worries. We hope that Stella will visit again soon!”

About: Hello! I’m Monica and I am a stay at home mom ready to cuddle and play with your dog(s). I am ready to treat your dog(s) as one of my own. My schedule will allow me plenty of time to meet all the needs of your pets. I am also an avid walker and if your dog likes to go on walks, I have a great neighborhood to explore. I have always been an animal lover. I attended Michigan State University to become a veterinarian. During a veterinarian club meeting I was introduced to the profession of veterinary technicians and knew that that was my calling. I was most excited about being able to provide more hands on care of the animals (administering medications, tending to hospitalized patients, walking the dogs, etc). After graduating, I worked as a vet tech for 7 years and frequently provided petsitting services on the side, mostly staying the night at clients houses. After I became pregnant with my first child I chose to be a stay at home mom and paused petsitting. Now that my children are older, more responsible, and in school, I am ready to get back to petsitting. I am happy to also provide petsitting services in your home including drop ins, walking, and overnight stays. I am a stay at home mom so I have lots of time to play and cuddle your baby and meet his or her special needs. I own my home and have a fully fenced in large back yard. If your dog prefers a crate when left in the home or at nighttime, I ask that you bring that with you along with their food. My dog will be crated if I have to leave the house to run an errand or take my kids to an appointment. I will ask for a meet and greet prior to the dates of the petsitting service so that I can make sure that your dog feels comfortable with me and with my dog.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years, including my own pets as well as dogs for family and friends. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, giving medications when needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, including energetic puppies and older dogs who need a slower pace. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine and personality so they feel safe and cared for. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and affection, and I’m committed to providing reliable care while keeping pet owners updated along the way. Pet care fits easily into my daily summer routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I’m able to plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need. I’m reliable with routines like feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and check-ins, and I make sure each pet gets the time and care they’re used to. In my client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment and give them plenty of attention while their owner is away. I also send updates and photos so owners know their pet is doing well. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean space with plenty of supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise by going on walks or playing in our large gulley fenced in yard. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for, just like they would at home.
