House Sitting in Howard City

“Emily was very loving and caring for our dog. The first two days we received pictures and put pretty regularly, I would have liked it if she had done that on the last day. Other than that she is an excellent sitter”

“Brendan did a great job with our girls. I initially booked him due to his experience with senior dogs as one of our girls is almost 15. The other is much younger with a lot of energy. Everything went smoothly and we will definitely be using Brendan again!”

“Eden was great with all of our pets! He was super flexible. The pictures and update were greatly appreciated.”

Megan C.

“Two very happy dogs! Shelby was great staying with them all day on a short notice!”

“Fabulous sitter over 8 days and nights. Our dogs still miss her and she was able to wrangle 3 indoor/outdoor cats, in addition to being in charge of 9 horses! We highly recommend Eileen! Our home was in perfect condition, plus she did laundry (not required) She also updated us with daily photos✈️🏖️🌷”

“Sarah was great! My dogs loved her, she was kind and friendly and cleaned up after herself. Highly recommend!”

Wendy P.

“Caroline was great! Communication with her was prompt and easy. My house looked like no one had even been here. It was so clean when I got back, but the biggest thing is my mini bernadoodle took to Caroline almost immediately and she doesn’t always do that. I receive plenty of text and pictures about how things were going because I was very nervous as this was my first time and Caroline was great at that. She stayed with my puppy the whole time which was something I really wanted. We will definitely be using her again..”

“I am more than happy with the service provided by Megan (and Scott). I asked they take Frank on a walk because he had been crated for a few hours, feed him and just hang out for a while. They went beyond, by taking him on 2 walks, sending several pictures of a smiley happy dog and communicating throughout the visit what Frank was up to. They are friendly, knowledgeable about dogs and training, timely and reliable. We were at ease being gone for so long knowing Frank was in good hands. I will absolutely use them again when we need someone to take care of our boy.”

“Jade was wonderful! She took care of my dog, horse, cows and chickens while we were gone. She gave Brody plenty of attention and went above and beyond taking care of my farm animals! She quickly assessed when my horse was limping and tended to his needs including giving medication and wrapping his leg. I came home to a very well kept home and happy animals. Definitely will be using her again in the future! Thank you Jade!”

Rachel K.

“Alissa was an excellent sitter for our crew! She was responsive, easy to work with and left my house immaculate. I will be hiring her again and recommending her to everyone I know!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud rescue dog parent with over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. I know firsthand how tough it can be to find affordable, trustworthy help—especially when juggling a busy schedule. That’s what inspired me to become a Rover sitter: to offer dependable, compassionate care for your pets when you need it most. My two pups (a spunky senior Jack Russell/Heeler mix and a mid-aged Husky/Heeler) keep me active and on my toes, and I frequently care for my sister-in-law's dogs as well. I’m experienced with dogs who need a little extra TLC, including those on special diets, daily medications, or unique routines. Whether you need someone to drop in for a quick potty break or want your dog to feel at home while you're away, I treat every pet like family—with patience, attention, and love. I'm flexible! I currently work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule during the days. I work about ~10-15 hours a week and don't have a set 9-5 type schedule. I can do my work whenever, wherever! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs at home. I treat my dogs like they are my BABIES - they get a ton of attention, pets, belly rubs, walks, and kisses. We do a lot of walks in our neighborhood and like to bring our pets on adventures.

About: I’ve grown up with animals and have always done pet care on the side since high school. Im passionate about getting animals outside and moving! Im currently working a full time job Monday-Friday from 8-4. After work and every weekend I am free to provide care and fun for your pets! We have a large amount of land for your dog to play on! I am fit and active and am willing to take your dog on walks for as long as they need and want (with lots of sniff breaks)

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.

“This was a great experience! Betsy was easy to work with, made herself available for a meet and greet prior to booking, and was very flexible with our changing plans. She provided status updates along with pictures, and made us feel comfortable that the dogs and our house were in good hands. We will definitely work with Betsy again in the future!”

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a kid as I come from a big dog loving family! Starting with my personal and family experience: I have 2 dogs of my own: Pretzel who’s a Lab/Beagle mix and Wallace who is Lab/Heeler/Terrier mix! I have plenty of experience watching my sisters dogs, my best friends dogs, and my parents dogs. In college, I had a part-time job dropping in on a dog whose owner worked in the medical field and would have long shifts. I would go play with her, take her out to go potty and just spend time with her so she wasn’t alone for long periods of time! Aside from pet sitting for family and friends regularly, I don’t have a lot of experience outside of that; but it has always been a dream of mine to get a business like this running so I can spend my time doing what I love most, being around and caring for dogs! I feel comfortable with all breeds and sizes! Just some of the breeds I have interacted with are Dachshund, Beagle/Dachshund mix, Lab/Beagle mix, Rottweiler, Catahoula Leopard, Anatolian Shepherd, Goldendoodle, Lab/Doberman mix, and Pomskey. I am really excited about this new adventure and I hope you will pick me as your sitter! Currently I work on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays, so I have plenty of time in between to spend with other pups! I hope at some point I could have this replace my current job! Unfortunately, my dogs aren’t the most friendly with others so I cannot offer services in my home. However, there is potential for me to have pets outside in my fenced in area for some outdoor playtime! Depending on my availability I am okay with overnights at your house if you are on vacation! I would treat your pets like they were my own and follow any instructions you have! Lastly, I offer dog walking services. I would love the exercise just as much as your pup would!!

“Brittany did a great job pet sitting for us! She paid careful attention to our pets’ needs. She showed up early and communicated with us extremely well! We loved the pictures she sent! We would definitely hire her again!”

About: ♡pricing is flexable message me for details I have pet care experience of all kinds including breeding and stud service, shots and weening. We have a large open floor plan with a 4 stall garage to roam. Price will vary if dog is not fully potty trained or in heat during their stay. I am a stay at home entrepreneur allowing me to be present with pets while they are here. I am also a self taught groomer! I will only be booking appointments on days that I can be fully present and involved with the pets scheduled. My husband and I believe this is a great opportunity to be able to love on all kinds of different breeds as our own and a fun way to take care of some of the most precious pets. * I am available for drop ins(potty breaks and walks) in the hudsonville-jenison area on Tuesdays and Thursdays aswell! There are no cats or dogs here (unless confirmed that its okay to board at the same time as another families pet) so you won't have to worry about your pet getting along with anyone else while they are here. Our yard is not fenced but we do have fenced in areas.Be sure to check your collars and leashes of any wear and tears before dropping them off💛 If your dog is medium-giant we prefer them to have a calm demeanor (couch potato) if not,but this is not a requirement 😉 tell me about your dog and we will see if it will be a good fit🧡

About: Cats are great and I've had a lot of them they lived a happy life and grow old with me my baby kisses, ruby, snuggles, MJ R.I.P Daily I'm available any day and I'm always on time and understanding when it comes to anything that life throws my direction and it always works out. I care for other people's animals if they were my own with love and care and always play with them and build trusted and love them. I grow up on a ranch as a kid and had a lot of animals and took care of them all I'm great with animals.

About: Over the past ten years I have done countless dog sitting jobs for local friends and family. I also have a passion for fitness and love going for long walks to get my steps in! I provide great care for your forever friend and I make sure all of their needs are met! I consider every dog I’ve ever dog sat as one of my “fur babies” and I treat them how I would want someone to treat my own pets. I’m a registered nurse in the OR and I work 4 days per week 7am-4:30pm so my evenings are always free and rarely work weekends. I always have my constant attention on your furry friends and ensure they are well cared for! From walks and playing to all of the pets and love!

About: I have 6 years of professional experience in animal care, body language, and handling. My dedication, knowledge, and love that goes into caring for pets are some of my strongest attributes. I care for others pets how I would care for my own! I am “reactive” dog friendly and have the ability to give medications or insulin injections as well, due to my extensive experience. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to make visits to your home to care for your pets. Whether it be a single drop in visit, or multiple. When caring for others pets, supervision is paramount for safety. Your pet’s time with me will be fully supervised during my visits to your home.
