“My Jesper loves Ross, he's dependable, on time and seems to enjoy dogs. My dog is over 100 pounds at 18 months, kind of a handful, Ross handles him beautifully”
6. Izzy V.
“Izzy was great and our pups loved her! We reached out to Izzy last minute, as we needed someone to let our pups out/walk them while we were out of town unexpectedly. She came over and met them both ahead of time, and our very timid rescue dog immediately took to Izzy. She was on time each day, and let me know when she arrived and was leaving. She made sure their food and water was full, and locked the house when she left. We will definitely be reaching out to her next time we need some help!”
7. Reyna Z.
“I was excited to learn of the new business. Reyna and her family love animals and treat them like family. I have a very anxious Maltese mix that shakes when we go to the groomers or vet. I dropped her off first for grooming and then she was spending the day there. They did a great job! Her cut was just what I asked for and she made fast friends with the groomer. She was happy to see me but was at home in the family atmosphere. They treat them like their own dogs. It also works when you have a full schedule. They offer dog sitting until you get out of work or even overnight boarding for vacations. Thank you Reyna for peace of mind for myself and my fur baby 😊 Beth L”
8. Meghan R.
“Consider it purr-fect for kitty-cats and barking up the right tree when it comes to loving and caring for your pets. Meghan has a great deal of experience working with various pet personalities...from anxious pets to those who want to snuggle/lick and play. She also has experience with many different dog breeds, from small to large. She treats animals with a great deal of patience, care and lots of love! She is very compassionate with animals, has administered various types of medications as well as caring for animals with various ailments. Her environment is a good fit for animals with space to roam/play, whether indoors on rainy/cold days or in an enclosed fenced yard on nice days.”
9. Lauren A.
“Lauren is exceptional with cats. She looked after my cat Santiago for a week while I was away for work. After seeing her interact with Santiago I had no doubt that I left him in her loving, capable hands. I will definitely use her services in the future.”

13. Mark M.
“Mark changed our dog's life, and probably saved it. We adopted a Belgian Malanois that dropped out of the police academy because she was deemed "not courageous enough". She's an absolutely wonderful dog and we love her to bits. She was perfect when we first received her but once she passed that 1 year mark we started having aggression and possession issues when it came to her toys and other dogs. We tried EVERYTHING and seemed to make progress then one slip would put her right back into the bad behaviors. Her focus is unmatched and when she was focused on a lizard or ball, it was almost impossible to get her attention without physical touching her to remind her that you were there. After what could have been a very serious accident, we knew we needed to really focus on getting her prey-drive behavior in check but felt like we were out of ideas. We met Mark by accident and after some chatting found out about his experience with Mal's in particular. He was more than happy to let us bring our dog over to socialize with his and teach us how to curb the behaviors we were seeing. After only a week with Mark, our Mal was a completely different dog! We have only had a few issues almost a year later but with what Mark had taught us we were able to discipline accordingly in a manner she understood. She has quickly learned what is acceptable. People compliment us ALL THE TIME about how well-behaved our dog is and how obedient she is with commands. I run with her almost every day and smile every time someone has to struggle to control their dog and mine simple casts theirs a side-glance. Mark is truly an incredible person. He was so selfless to take his time to help us with our baby girl and teach us so much about training in general. He has years of experience and an endless wealth of knowledge. He has become a great friend of ours and we enjoy daily walks with him and his amazing dog, Ranger! Mark has had an incredible impact on our life and our Mal's. We will never be able to thank him enough for his help! ”
14. Vicki L.
About: If my husband would let me, I’d buy a zoo (come on powerball). I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve never met a pet that I didn’t want to spoil and cuddle. My daughter calls me a “stay at home pet mom”. Most days I’m home all day, with the exception of an occasional errand, appointment or maybe a date night. Recently our 13 year old Staffordshire terrier/boxer- Zoey, went to doggie Heaven. She was a gentle soul who we miss immensely. We have 3 kitties who are like my tiny babies- all very spoiled. Bam, who loves walking all the pups, and Pumpkin, and Elsa. All three are rescues. Basically I’m their “do-girl”. They all know how to talk me into extra treats. I have had to administer meds in the past and don’t mind doing so. Animal caretaking is my full time job and my family is 1000% okay with that. I’ve never met an animal that I didn’t want to bring home with me. Your fur baby is invited and encouraged to make our house their home away from home. They will be well spoiled and loved, as my entire family will be doting on them.
15. Laurie & Skylar U.
“Wow Laurie is so professional and kind. My dog , whom can be extremely stubborn, took to her immediately. She was extremely attentive and understanding to my families situation as well.”
16. Rachel R.
“Rachel is a caring and dependable young lady. She is a dog lover and very responsible. She also has a dog of her own that she brings to play dates with my dog. I would reccomend her for any pet companionship or care.”
17. Kelsie P.
“Kelsie was such a wonderful dog sitter for my shitzu/Pomeranian mix “Cali”. My little Cali loved being taken care of by Kelsie and I could tell every time I came home they had such a great time together. My baby was in such great spirits whenever Kelsie was around. Kelsie always kept my little pup in tip-top shape and kept her well groomed. She is very good at following orders and making sure my little pooch is safe and happy! Really looking forward to my next trip to the Bahamas so Kelsie can watch over my love.”
18. Cortney C.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and I genuinely love pets and spending time with them, and treating them as if they were my own. I recently have moved to Grand Rapids and unable to have my own pets so my schedule is very open to be able to take care of others pets. I’m very respectful of other peoples homes and rules. I’m able to follow any detailed instructions to provide for your pets needs. I treat others pets like they are my own!
