About: Live-In House Sitting • West Michigan • July 15 – August 9, 2026 I provide reliable, live-in house sitting for pets and homes in West Michigan. Some Michigan clients may remember me from when I previously offered in-home boarding locally. I now provide that same attentive, dependable care in your home, allowing pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ve been with Rover since 2019 and am known for being conscientious, respectful, and easy to communicate with. I care for pets, homes, plants, and daily routines with consistency and attention to detail, treating every home as if it were my own. Service area: Sparta, Rockford, Belmont, Ada, Forest Hills, and northern Kent County Availability: July 15 through August 9, 2026 My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets and home are in capable, caring hands. My routine stays flexible around your pet’s needs, including walks, feedings, medications, and companionship. I may step out briefly during daytime hours, but I’m present each evening and overnight to maintain consistency and comfort. Summer Availability I provide live-in house sitting in the northern Grand Rapids / Kent County area in late July to early August, 2026. I care for pets and homes with the same respect and attention I give my own. In a client’s home, I follow established routines for feeding, walks, play, medications, and quiet time so pets remain calm and comfortable while you’re away. I keep the home clean, secure, and well organized, and I communicate clearly with regular updates. My focus is steady, trustworthy care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind.

“Mark is outstanding. Not only did he take great care of my 3 dogs and 2 cats, but he was an excellent communicator. He sent a full written report each day and sent so many pictures. We came home to a clean house and happy pets. He was very helpful when we almost missed our connecting flight and reassured me that he would be there for us if we did miss it. We travel a lot and I will never use another pet sitter if I can help it. Mark took care of my pets like I take care of them and that’s saying a lot bc I’m a bit crazy for my furbabies. Highly recommend!”

About: I have cared for dogs, cats, race and draft horses, chickens, cows, rabbits, hamsters, guinea Pigs, goats, snakes, birds, llamas, a monkey and lots of other creatures. I’d love to be able to help with your pet care needs. House sitting includes: Staying in your home with your pets. This means there needs to be a clean bed or place to sleep. While your pets will be in my care I will still need to be able to accommodate other responsibilities. Your pets will not be left for more than 7hours at a time. If your pets require 100% around the clock care, I unfortunately will not be able to accommodate this. Meet and greets are required before booking starts. Thank you so much for your time. Im currently working part time in the Newaygo area and only accept house sittings. This helps allow me to concentrate on the animals I’m caring for. I love meeting new animals! I make sure to provide a safe environment where your animal will feel confident and less stressed. I have experience administering medications and very detailed feedings. I like to pay attention to the pets routine so that they can have a sense of comfort while you are away.

“Caroline was great and our dogs loved playing with Gator! We loved the daily check-ins with pictures showing our fur babies having a great time. She took excellent care of our two dogs and our home. The peace of mind she gave us helped us to enjoy our much needed time away. We will definitely use her services again!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and experience in pet care, including specialized skills in training puppies and providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I focus on personalized attention to meet each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Pet care is a regular part of my routine, with daily time set aside for feeding, exercise, and play. I also keep pets happy and healthy. This helps me provide reliable and loving care every day. I care for pets by keeping a safe, and comfortable space. I try to stick to their usual routines for feeding, exercise, and play, and make sure they get plenty of attention and love to feel happy and secure.

“Tranae was a phenomenal house and dog sitter while we were away for an extended holiday weekend. She kept in touch, sent photo/video updates and went above and beyond in many ways. Highly recommend!”

“Lillie stayed with my two dogs in our home for 10 days . She came over to meet them and again right before we left . Her communication prior to us leaving and while we were gone ,was awesome. She also accommodated big changes to our plans . The dogs did great and she sent pictures which made me happy ! This is my first experience with Rover and leaving someone I had just met with "my kids". Lillie did a great job. I would recommend her and will use her again .”

About: I've been working with, and caring for animals many years of my life. From huskies to terriers, and kittens or strays, I treat them the way friends do for one another. Putting their needs before mine. I keep them in my sight, in case of danger, to ensure their safety, and overall well-being. Therefore, they will be loved and treated like family. Therefore they will be given the most, and put first when it comes to effort, and understanding. Thank you I have an open schedule besides Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:30am to 11am. Additionally, I am devoted to your pet's needs and strive to accommodate your schedule. I have been caring for stray cats in my backyard for the past three years, with many of them needing specialty care. Whether it's a dog like my past companion, a husky named Ruby, or my friendly terriers, I adjust to their needs. I provide them with what they need. Whether they require adjustments for social anxiety or have a hard time on the leash or specific food requirements, I am familiar with these aspects. I am always willing to do what is best for them.

About: I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, they are the best! I currently have 5 animals of my own and they are dear to me. I would love to give exceptional care for your dog(s) or cats when needed. I'm someone you can trust and rely on to take the best care of your baby(s). I currently work part time, Monday thru Wednesday and I have the extra time to help you when you need help with your fur baby(s)!! I have a fenced in back yard and I monitor my dogs while they are out there. Plenty of space for my dogs to run around and play!

“Katelyn has dogsat for the past 2 weeks for my 2 pups. She is super friendly, accommodating and helpful. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated. She was able to give our dog his medications while we were away. Definitely recommend and will continue to book with her!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was young. I love dogs unconditionally and love to play with them, I feed them when needed, I can give baths, and I love to take them on walks. My friends and family have relied on me to dog-sit whenever I was available to do so. I will be at college very soon, so weekends are great for me to walk dogs and care for pets. Also evenings will work well for me. I have a pretty open schedule for awhile I just need to work around classes. I have a fenced in yard and a very playful energetic dog. He is very sweet but he is like our baby so we don’t like to bring other dogs in just because he can get jealous and we don’t like to risk it.

“Mary did a great job of house sitting out 3 days for almost a week, would highly recommend her!”

Rebecca T.

“Once again Victor took great care of my animals. He will be my permanent sitter and I recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter!”

Shelly S.

About: I have had pets my entire life. I knew very young that I wanted to work with animals. I have a great love and compassion for them. I will take great care of your babies! I have a lot of experience caring and working with dogs. I have hobby farm experience (dogs, cats, chickens and a horse) as well. I am a Licensed Veterinary Nurse, therefore, I am educated in many aspects of caring for your pet. I know what to look for in case of illness, injury, etc. I can also do some other tasks, like toe nail trims, ear cleanings, etc. I am a dependable, trustworthy person who knows how important your pets are to you. I look forward to caring for your pets and/or walking your dog.

“Amaya did a great job of caring for my elderly greyhound and my lively rat terrier mix while I was away for two weeks. Both of them have complicated medication regimens, but she handled it all like pro. I appreciated that she contacted me when she had questions about my older dog. I think my girls loved having her stay with them.”
