“I left my dog, Theo, with Kelsey and Forrest for a few hours, and definitely plan on using them again in the future!

Kelsey and Forrest are very trustworthy and obviously animal lovers.”

About: I have experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra care! I've been working with neighbors and have been recommended to others due to my reliable and compassionate pet care. In addition, I have completed countless volunteer hours through the Humane Society of West Michigan's Dogs Day Out program, giving me valuable hands-on experience with dogs of varying temperaments, energy levels, and care needs! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for any pet care needed on weekdays and weekends! In my own home, I have one cat who loves to lie around the house during the day and snuggle next to me at night! My #1 goal is to make sure your pet is having fun in a safe and comfortable environment at all times!
“First time coming to meet our pups and couldn’t be happier. Super friendly and the pups already love him. Easy to work with will definitely purely be a repeat customer. Thanks Kevin the pups can’t wait til the next visit.”
About: I am a life long dog lover, raising dogs for the entirety of my first 18 years of life. While we live in a home where we can't keep dogs. At home we care for a menagerie of pets, including 1 cat, 2 rabbits, 3 degus, 2 budgies, 1 cockatiel, 1 painted turtle and keep 5 freshwater aquariums! I am self employed with a very flexible schedule. I try to fit in 3-5 dog walks per week. Sometimes more if my schedule allows. I am always very mindful of any pets in my care. We have a cockatiel who we allow to fly around the house, so I am always very watching and aware, ensure doors and windows are treated with care to ensure the safety of my pets.
“Hanna was very attentive and responsive. We needed care last minute and she was able to respond right away and confirm all the information. Both our dogs had a great time in Hanna care.”
“Abby is the absolute best! My puppy adores her and she’s great with response time! I can honestly say I fully trust her with my pup and I am so thankful. Thank you, Abby!”
About: All three of our animals are besties and our whole world. My husband and I have had pets my entire life :) my husband and I work together to take the best care of your animals in our home or yours! Currently my husband and I work opposite schedule, someone is often home with the animals. If not, we will confirm you are comfortable with the duration we leave (if care is in our own home). I will care for your pet in any way that is needed or requested! We give lots of attention and care because we know that pets can be uncomfortable in a new environment or with a new person! We want your pet to be comfortable in any space!
About: I'd love to walk your dog and give them the love they deserve! I have experience pet sitting and walking, as well as riding and training horses growing up. I also love to run and would be happy to run with your dog if they need to get more energy out! Currently, evenings work best for me. Walks anytime after 5:30 should be fine on weekdays, and I am more flexible on weekends- I can often do walks in the afternoon as well. I am not able to provide pet day care right now. I would love to walk dogs, but can not take them into my home.

Love at first sight! Xylo absolutely LOVED his walk with Natalie. She showed up on time and even brought him a lovely treat as an introduction. We look forward to using Natalie whenever we are unable to give Xylo a walk. Great communication and care. HIGHLY recommend!!
Izabella was so great with coco. I had a last minute request when her longtime caregiver could no longer care for her. I had set up care through another person on rover and they cancelled which left me just two days to find someone. Izabella sent me her work hours so I could coordinate drop ins and walks to work with cocos schedule. She came the next day for a meet and greet. While I was away she gave great photos and updates. She even offered to take out the trash and put some salt down. She offered an additional check in if needed the day we were coming back which was wonderful since our plane got delayed. Would definitely recommend her!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kentwood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Kentwood 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. 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 .
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.
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.
To find sitters in Kentwood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
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.
