About: I was born with no hands but that has never ever stopped me!! I've owned pups most my life! Big and small! I've taken many on tons of walks! I enjoy playing with them and feeding them treats! Sunday: 5pm-10pm Monday-Friday: Depends on work schedule at Daycare Saturday: Free all day I also do Vacations so if you want to leave for a week, I can take care of them but I'll still have to leave for work which would at most be 5 hours! I've stayed nights at places as well but I won't if you're uncomfortable with that! Whatever you want! I am not doing in home care at this time. My kitty would be very very mad at me. Some day I'll look into it!
“Michelle took great care of my dogs with regular walks while I was on vacation. I came home to happy, healthy boys! I would hire Michelle again; she will take great care of your pets!”

“Incredible with our high energy dogs, Caroline was wonderful, on time and great with communicating about any change. We are happy we went with her, she went above and beyond with our black Rottsky girl in the sun, making sure she got shade on the walks when it was getting warm! We definitely plan on booking with Caroline again!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I got my first horse when I was 13 and trained him myself. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for horses, dogs, and cats, including many different dog breeds, from mastiffs and rhodesian ridgeback to boxer, labs, blue Heeler, and pomeranian. In my younger years, I owned a horse boarding farm, raised horses, was a 4-H leader, and enjoyed participating in horse shows with my daughter. I’ve also helped care for friends’ and other people’s pets over the years, including recently providing pet sitting for a friend. I’ve always had a special love for animals and truly enjoy their companionship. Now that I’m semi-retired, I have more time and flexibility to spend doing something I love. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping your pet company, I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and give them the love and attention they deserve! I'm semi-retired and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me plenty of time to give your pets the love, care, and attention they deserve! I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safe and familiar with their surroundings. I do my best to keep their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime and plenty of love and attention.
“I would highly recommend Maelee. She has walked Scout multiple times now and is always on time and a great communicator. Plus the cute pictures after the walk are always an added bonus 😊”


About: I am in my senior year at Grand Valley State University as a Fine Arts Major. I feel that my love of animals and flexible college schedule would be a great fit for offering pet sitting services! I grew up with our family dog that we sadly put down right before I left for college. I miss having a pet around and would love the companionship as well as extra income for tuition. I love dogs and cats and will give them the love and attention as if they were my own. I am a self starter and able to comply with any special needs or requirements for your furry family member! I am very flexible currently during the summer months to fit most requests. During the school year Friday-Sunday is wide open, with potential ability various times through the week. Proximity to Allendale during school months also gives added flexibility. Overnights are always a possibility. I very much appreciate the space of my clients and their privacy. I try to ensure that when I stay in a clients home that I leave it in the same condition or better than when I found it. I want limit any disruption to your furry family member as much as possible. I know how important it is to follow any rules/procedures put in place for the safety of your pet and your property.

About: Every dog is has their own personality. It’s more than dog sitting, it’s building a connection. In the past, I’ve taken care of multiple dogs at one time, each one with different needs. Whether it was making sure they took their medication or sitting with them while they ate. Catering to each dog and what they need is something very important to me. I’m currently home from college and don’t have any regular commitments. My plans vary depending on the week but as your dog sitter your dogs will be my priority. I know how important a routine and schedule can be for a dog, taking them out to potty every certain number of hours or feeding them at specific times.
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have extensive experience in caring for my own animals (dogs, cats, and rabbits). I also was trusted to watch neighborhood dogs for day check ins and overnight stays. I have experience in caring for elderly dogs with specific dietary restrictions! I’m currently job hunting which leaves my days and nights almost completely free to be with your animals! I’m free for overnight stays as well as daily check ins. I am unable to have animals stay at my apartment due to its small size and my cats. But I have years of experience caring for animals in their homes, I feel confident in my ability to keep your pets happy and well cared for.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a young child. I have experience working at a doggy daycare/boarding facility as well as extensive experience working with animal welfare groups. I have 2 children who are in school all day and a husband who works from home. In the evening I am able to care for your pets also. I can currently come to your home to care for your pets. I find that pets tend to fare better with a pet sitter if they stay in their own home, a familiar place for them.
About: I believe the best pet care starts with getting to know each pet and their individual routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that means walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, potty breaks, or simply giving your pet some extra love and attention.

I’ll also make sure to keep their space clean, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! I work from home every day as a full-time remote employee, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and playtime, and I can even care for pets while their owners are at work. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment and have plenty of experience having my family dog come stay with me. I’m also a very active person who loves walking and running, so I’m happy to bring an energetic pup along for some exercise and adventure! When your pet stays with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and at home! I’ll follow their normal feeding, potty, walking, and sleep routine as closely as possible and give them plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. Since I work from home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m also happy to take dogs on walks or runs if that fits their normal routine and energy level. My apartment is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, and I’ll make sure your pet has a calm space to relax. I’ll send regular updates and pictures so you can see how your furry friend is doing while they’re staying with me! Because I live in an apartment, I do require dogs staying in my home to be fully potty trained. 🤍

About: Hi, I’m Rory. I’m a local Realtor, stepdad to three great kids, and lifelong animal lover. I’ve been a dog dad since I was 25, starting with a Newfoundland and now sharing a home with Lola, our 7-year-old Golden Retriever, and Tilly, our 8-month-old Cavapoo. Dogs have always been part of our family, and I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, cared for, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m active, enjoy walks, and love giving dogs the playtime, exercise, and companionship they need. I also volunteer in the community coaching football and basketball, so being dependable, patient, and attentive comes naturally to me. As a Realtor, I know trust and communication matter. I’ll follow your dog’s routine, respect your home, and keep you updated so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, snuggling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I work from home, so your dog will have company throughout the day instead of being left alone for long stretches. We build in regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, meals, and plenty of attention while keeping as close as possible to their normal routine. Your dog will be cared for in a loving family environment with two friendly dogs and three kids who truly love animals. Our home has plenty of space to relax and play, along with a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor breaks. We make introductions slowly, supervise play, and can separate or crate dogs if needed. We will follow your feeding, medication, exercise, and house rules, while keeping you updated with photos and messages.

About: Every pet is different, and that's one of my favorite parts of caring for them. I enjoy getting to know who they are, their routines, preferences, and all the little quirks that make them uniquely themselves. Before you leave, I want to understand what matters most to both of you. You know your pet best, and the more I understand what helps them feel safe, happy, and comfortable, the more familiar I can keep life while you're away. While staying in your home, I follow their established rhythms and pay attention to how they're responding in the moment. Some pets want plenty of play, walks, and engagement. Others are happiest with their familiar routine and a quiet companion nearby. I meet them where they are. I also understand that you're trusting me with more than your pet. You're trusting me with your home. I treat both with care and respect, keep you updated while you're away, and want you to return to happy pets and a home that's been thoughtfully cared for. My goal is simple: you get to enjoy your time away knowing what's precious to you is in good hands. When I’m caring for someone’s pets, their routines become a priority in my day. I plan my schedule around feeding times, check-ins, walks, and any special care they need so everything stays consistent and comfortable for them. Reliable structure and calm presence are part of how I work. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible while keeping a steady, comfortable rhythm for everyone. I maintain consistent feeding times, clean litter or yard areas, refresh water, and keep their spaces tidy. I pay attention to how pets are feeling and adjust the day in ways that support calm, predictable care. While staying in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want someone to bring to mine. I’m mindful of your routines and preferences, keep things clean and cared for, and pay attention to the little details that help everything run smoothly while you’re away. My goal is always to create a smooth, grounded experience so your pets stay relaxed and well cared for, your home is respected, and you can genuinely enjoy your time away.
About: I have experience caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors and treat every pet like family. I provide reliable care, walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and photo updates so owners can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home as an interpreter. My flexible schedule allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, feeding, walks, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I am able to maintain their normal routines and provide regular updates to owners, helping pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re away. I provide attentive, personalized care by following each pet’s routine, ensuring they receive proper exercise, companionship, and affection while keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy.

Renee is such a gem, and my pup loves her time with her. It is so nice to know on the days that I work late I don’t have to worry about my pup having to be alone all day and not get her steps in. Renee is very communicative and reliable. A welcome addition to our weekly routine.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Jenison. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Jenison after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jenison. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
