About: I’ve had dogs in my life since birth. I started taking more responsibility for them around the age of 10. The moment I graduated college, I got my own rescue doggo. Maisie is now 10 and likes to sleep and cuddle, so I’m looking to add some energetic pups to my walking route. I’m a nurse and have random time off during the week. My schedule is far from consistent but I hope that helps me stand out as someone to just drop in periodically. I’m a pet parent myself so I know how anxious people can get when you’re away from your babies. And I know how anxious your pets can get too! I’ll follow any sort of instruction you leave!
About: With 12+ years of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, caring for pups isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I’ve personally raised and trained three dogs from puppies, so I’m very comfortable with everything from high-energy puppies to sweet senior dogs who prefer a slower pace.💛 I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for when you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Whether it’s an energetic walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality and needs. 🐶 For extra peace of mind, I’m Red Cross certified in Dog & Cat CPR, so your pet’s safety is always a top priority. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and love building lasting trust with both pets and their owners! 💕 🐾 I’d love to meet you and your pup! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet! I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of open availability for dog walks and drop-in visits. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m happy to work around what works best for you and your pup! 🐾 When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is always safety, comfort, and making sure your dog’s routine is followed as closely as possible. I offer drop-in visits where I can take care of any and all of your dog’s needs, including walks, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. During walks, I focus on keeping your dog safe, using secure leashing and being mindful of surroundings so your dog can enjoy their time outside. I treat every pet and home with respect and care, and my goal is always to make sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Lucas took fantastic care of our pups! His communication was great and he sent us awesome pictures of his time with our dogs. We would highly recommend Lucas to anyone looking for a great caretaker for their pets!”
“Megan did an awesome job with our fur baby. He tends to be ornery at times and she was able to work with him in spite of his attitude. Megan is very flexible and accommodating.”
“Much confidence going into the visit, with a meet and greet prior to. We really appreciated Jaclyn’s message detailing how the kitties were doing and about how she spent time playing with them. The pictures were very nice too :) We felt very confident that great care was provided for our kitties and will be using her again.”
About: What sets me apart is my 25+ years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets—from playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs, as well as cats and bunnies. I don’t just “watch” pets—I truly understand their behaviors, routines, and emotional needs. I provide a safe, loving environment with a fenced yard, personalized care, and plenty of daily walks, treats, cuddles, and playtime. I’m also prepared to handle extra needs like crate training, light grooming, and senior care. Most importantly, I treat every pet like my own—giving them the attention, patience, and comfort they deserve while you’re away. 🐾 With over 25 years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve lovingly cared for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs with special needs—as well as cats and bunnies.

“Holly was awesome with Luna and helped me out on short notice! She was reliable and provided me with great updates so I knew my fur baby was doing OK while I was away.”
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of animals of all kinds. I have pets of my own, along with 3 years as a supervisor at a pet store. I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I'm currently working part time at Grand Valley at the Laker Store, so if a time lines up with my schedule where I can also take a job on Rover, I'll do it. I'll take some time to get to know the animal first before starting to care for it, or whatever the owner needs me to do. I'm also experienced in nail trims and certified due to my previous job, so I'm able to do those if desired.
“This was my first time using Rover and I had a great experience with Meghan. She was available even though the booking was short notice (under two weeks). We met briefly to go over the pets’ routine before we left. She was efficient and communicative, sending photos and responding if I had any questions. Many thanks, Meghan! Good luck with the end of vet school!”
About: I'm a nurse, mom and lifelong dog owner with 15 years of hands on experience. I am calm, detail-oriented, professionally reliable, nurturing and offer a family-friendly environment. I offer a high level of safety, communication and compassion-blending expert attention with genuine love for every dog I care for. I work 3 days a week, on my off days, I go running with my dogs or take them to the dog park to get out their energy. My boyfriend works from home so the dogs are never alone for long. While we don't have a fenced in yard, we have gated off our wrap around porch so the dogs can relax outside. They have a safe and loving environment, with fresh water, regular meals, daily exercise, playtime and mental stimulation.
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home with both cats and dogs, and I truly cannot imagine life without them as part of the family. That is not just something I say. It is how I live. I have had cats since I was six years old, and my wife and I have shared our home with both cats and dogs our entire adult lives. Right now, our little crew includes our ten year old dog Nara and our two younger cats, Chiri and Lulu. Living in a multi-pet household has taught me how to read different personalities, manage different energy levels, and create a calm, respectful environment where everyone feels secure. I do not see pets as property. They are sentient, emotional members of the family with their own routines, preferences, and boundaries. When I care for your pet, I approach them with patience, attentiveness, and genuine respect. I adjust to their temperament. High energy or shy. Playful or independent. Young or senior. My goal is always the same. Make them feel safe, understood, and comfortable in their own space. My wife brings years of pet sitting experience and previously worked as a dog trainer and consultant. I have learned a great deal from her about behavior, structure, positive reinforcement, and how to respond calmly in different situations. That experience has shaped how I show up with animals. Steady. Observant. Consistent. When caring for your pets, I focus on: • Keeping routines consistent • Providing appropriate play and enrichment • Maintaining clean food, water, and litter areas • Offering calm companionship when that is what they need • Sending thoughtful updates and photos so you feel completely at ease Leaving your pets in someone else’s care requires trust. I take that responsibility seriously. I will treat your pets the way I treat my own. With patience, kindness, and real affection. If you are looking for someone who understands that your pets are family, I would love to help. 🐾 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I focus on keeping their routine consistent, with regular potty breaks, play when they’re up for it, and plenty of companionship rather than quick, rushed visits. I’m available for afternoon and evening visits, weekend care, overnight stays in your home, house sitting, and extended care when needed. Whether your pet needs a few check-ins during the day, weekend coverage, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around what fits best for you. I aim to be present, attentive, and easy to communicate with, and I’ll send regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is comfortable and well cared for. If you have specific timing or needs, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to find a setup that works well for you and your pets. 🐾 Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pets, whether in your home or mine. In your home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking preferences, and any household guidelines you provide. I’m attentive to details like doors, gates, leashes, and secure areas so your pet stays safe at all times, and I treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. My approach is calm, patient, and low-stress. I use fear-free handling techniques and pay close attention to behavior and subtle changes, especially for pets who may be more sensitive or require extra care. I’m also certified in Dog CPR & First Aid, so I’m prepared to recognize and respond appropriately if any concerns arise. I believe in clear, proactive communication. If anything seems off, I’ll reach out right away so you always feel informed and at ease. I aim to create an environment where every pet feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. They’re family, and I treat them that way. 🐾

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hudsonville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Hudsonville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
