“Melissa was so amazing! She took the best care of our dog and cat. Lot's of fun updates, she went above and beyond. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated, kind, and caring sitter!”

“Sammie was great with my dogs! They have very high energy at times and like to wreck things but she played with them and hung out with them and they had zero issues while she was here! Will definitely use her again!”

“This was my first time leaving my dog for more than a day and my first time using Rover services so I was definitely nervous… but I didn’t need to be! Holly did great taking care of my boys and I can tell they were well cared for, played with, and cuddled. She was great to communicate with and left the house in great shape. I will definitely be using her again if I’m in need ◡̈”

“Ben was so great with my high energy, super spoiled babies! I think they like playing with him more than me and they got all the cuddles they are use to, if not More! I’m so grateful for the peace of mind from having him watch them while I travel.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have been around them for most of my life. Between caring for my own family dog and helping neighbors, friends and family with their pets, I’m very comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime and keeping dogs on their normal routines. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate different pet care needs throughout the week. I’m available mornings, evenings and weekends, with flexibility during the workday when needed. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and schedule! I’m very respectful of both your pet and your home and will follow any routines or instructions you provide. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise and care while keeping their environment safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
About: Hi! I am a junior at GVSU studying Radiation Therapy. I have pet sat and dog walked for family and friends for years. I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from nervous chihuahuas to chunky Rottweilers! I’ve also cared for many cat personalities too. I’ve volunteered at West Michigan humane society in the cat and small animals department. I also have a love for reptiles and rodents. I currently have 2 five year old Guinea pig girls, and my roommate has a Russian tortoise! I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, fostering and adopting dogs, taking in barn cats, a few pet fish, and having a leopard gecko for 10+ years. I have a lot of time available, and would love to assist your family! As a busy college student- I actually have plenty of time to stay in someone’s home as I can study! I have scheduled classes 10am-3pm Tues, Wed, and Noon-2pm Thurs. I can be flexible depending on your needs. When caring for an animal in a clients home I want to understand the animals personality, needs, and quirks. I love playing with animals, giving them affection, or just being in their presence. I make sure your pet/s have plenty bathroom breaks, constant clean water, fed at appropriate times, and feel loved. I’m happy to abide by oddly specific instructions, my own animals require some silly requests :-) Every animal has different levels of trust, and I am always patient to gain that trust and not expect it. Your pets won’t be bored or lonely, I’m happy to keep them entertained!
“It was great having Skyler watch our dog! He was very well cared for and looks like he got lot of love. Skyler spent a lot of time with our pup which was a plus as well. They left our house clean and followed all the instructions we left for our dog. We got updates with pictures while we were away as well. We would absolutely recommend Skyler and would love to rebook with them next time we need someone to house sit.”


“Michael was awesome Blue absolutely loves him. He took the dog out and they did more than I ever do with him...so I was happy that I chose Michael. Walks in the park, took several pictures, and Blu got a chance to play with other dogs. That made my heart Happy. Thank you Micheal. You're a keeper:-)”

About: I’ve been doing overnight dog sitting for 7 years, I have many reoccurring parents reach out to me! I am a student getting my masters who loves to go on walks! I have quite the busy schedule but I prioritize the pets as much as possible! When I’m not at school I’m always sitting around with the pets so they aren’t alone and stay as much at the house as I can! I care for the pets just like I would if they are mine, I always find time to make sure they are not left alone for an extended people of time and they always love me!

About: Im a reliable and active animal lover. I’ve cared for dogs for family and friends and treat every pet like my own. I’m attentive to each animals needs whether it’s going for a walk, playtime, or giving them company. I’m a nurse looking to hangout with some furry friends and get some extra time outside. I’m a nurse working full time looking to find a way to spend extra time outside. During the week I am available early in the mornings and in the evenings. I am available anytime during the weekends. I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your pet will be treated like family. I have one three year old cat at home who is shy but friendly. I prioritize constant supervision, secure spaces, and clear communication with owners, including updates and photos. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine are always my top priorities.

“Very pleasant with our experience. Nate came to visit our house for meet and greet and he was very sweet to our dogs and they seemed to like him as well. He left the house very clean and our dogs seemed way less clingy than other times we left them over night.”

“She was very understanding of why I needed somebody to watch him and my dog really liked her watching over him. I've never left anybody in charge of him before and I would let her do it again without hesitation.”
About: I’m passionate when it comes to working with animals and if there’s any special requests that need to be met, I’ll make sure they're taken care of. I've been around dogs and cats since childhood and know the importance of making sure they're cared for while family is away. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to reach out. I’m accepting new clients now and am flexible when it comes to scheduling. I work part time at my other job and always keep Rover active in my calendar. I don't travel out of town much so last minute bookings will work for me. Communication is key to creating a care schedule that works for you and your furry friend. I'm detail-oriented in all environments I'm in. This means your pets will always have an extra pair of eyes to keep them safe wherever they go. I build trust with my clients and their furry friends by being reliable, honest and accountable. Sending pictures or messaging any concerns I may have about your pet is one way I build this with my clients.
“Michelle did a great job of watching over our two golden retrievers (age 4 months and 5 years) while we were on vacation. She followed our instructions perfectly and went above and beyond in caring for our pets and our home. Michelle is a great communicator and sent us updates on a regular basis. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter and would not hesitate to hire her again.”

“Kevin was absolutely amazing! This was my first time leaving my fur babies and he was incredibly nurturing and accommodating. He sent me many updates and even helped my elderly pup who is going blind and needs extra care , medications, and eye drops. 100/10 recommend Kevin and I can’t wait to work with him again!”

“Ricky was fantastic. Stewie felt so comfortable with him, and we can tell Ricky took care of him as if he was his own. Will definitely be booking Ricky for future dog sitting needs.”

Yvonne (Vonnie) did an excellent job of dog sitting. Vonnie was wonderful with my dog who can be a little shy/anxious and slow to warm up to new people. I got update videos and pictures consistently every day. My space was also kept nice and clean, which I so appreciated. I will definitely be booking with Vonnie again.

Emma was wonderful! We were gone for almost 3 weeks and she provided loving care for my cats. The house was clean and neat upon our return. She went above and beyond by washing the bedding and putting clean sheets on the bed. We were given frequent updates as to how things were going while we were away. We will definitely be using her again in the future.

Melissa was a wonderful sitter for our small picky dog! In our meet and greet I could tell she was passion and excited to get to know Spruce. She sent us a ton of photos and cute stories about their time together. She sat at our house and I was pleased to come home to a happy dog and a well cared for home. There were little signs all over the the house showing that she cared for him and the property! She left us a sweet note about how she was thankful to get to spend time with Spruce. I look forward to using her again in the future!

Colene did a wonderful job this past weekend with our fourteen-year-old, 50-lb, mixed breed pup Brooklyn. Brooklyn can be a finicky eater now, in her old age, and has some arthritis that makes getting up and going out a bit harder for her than it used to be. She enjoys it once she gets up, but it can be a struggle to convince her to get up and go out. But Colene gently encouraged her, and Brooklyn ate her meals and took walks during her two-night stay, which doesn't sound like much if you have a puppy, but is really excellent with an elderly dog. I highly recommend Colene! Virginia

Brian took wonderful care of our two boys. He kept us updated, sent lots of photos even when we weren't responding (we were overseas), which was the most appreciated. He was flexible with our travel schedule, and went above and beyond by taking care of other tasks we were struggling with. The dogs clearly loved him—and his dog, Pig! We’ll definitely be booking him again.

Emily was great!! We were gone for 8 days and she stayed at our house and took amazing care of our dog, Zoey, our cat, Lewis, and our home. She was extremely respectful, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. We received regular updates while we were away, and she made sure Zoey got her walks and plenty of attention. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both of our pets were in good hands. When we got home, the house was exactly how we left it and Zoey and Lewis were both happy and well cared for. We honestly have no complaints whatsoever and would absolutely trust Emily to stay in our home and watch them again. Highly recommend her!
