“Jasmine is an awesome dog walker! She was very attentive and left some of the best notes I've ever had from a dog walker/sitter, which I really appreciated. She also used rover cards, which helps a ton, so I know where Moe walked and how far during the day. 10/10 will use again. I can also tell she has a lot of good experience working with animals. Thanks Jasmine!”
“Dawnn is so nice! She came short notice to meet us a few days before Mazie’s walk. My dog immediately loves her! She sent pics and an update during the walk. Would love to book again if there is a need!”
“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've had dogs in my home all my life. I have experience caring for a variety of breeds and sizes. I love dogs and will care for each one with whatever is needed. I'm not afraid to try something new. I create stories and share them with others. Whether it's through my YouTube channel or publishing books, I enjoy stories. I may even read to my pets my stories or other stories just for fun! I have a fenced yard, and currently have two puppies (about 1 year) that are staying for now. We have a dog crate, so I can move them around as needed. We're hoping to get a puppy of our own again when these young ones move out. I do have vision and hearing issues, which can result in some trouble seeing or balance issues. I can handle big dogs, but smaller is naturally easier.
“Daniel did a great job walking our big, energetic huskies! He was responsive, always showed up on time and even went above and beyond cleaning up a mess our puppy made in the house. Our dogs always seem happy and well taken care of when we get home from work on days they walk with Daniel. We would definitely recommend him!”
About: I'm a devoted lifelong animal lover who's cared for cats and dogs since I was 7. My fur babies are my children that I love more than anything! I'm very committed and look forward to meeting you and your pet(s) to care for and love them like my own! My schedule is flexible, so I'll have plenty of time to care for and play with your pet(s)! I have availability on weekdays and weekends. I always use hands-free leashes for safety and security. I have a friendly dog who will keep your fur baby(s) company and feel welcome! I can easily crate your pet(s) if needed. I will need to do meet and greets beforehand to ensure it's a good fit for everyone. I hope this is ok with you. This applies to new, prospective clients only.
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My sister worked at a zoo, so our home was basically a mini-safari—dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and the occasional surprise guest. Growing up around such a wide variety of animals taught me patience, respect, and how to read their personalities. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or a bit of both, I know how to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m currently a stay at home mom caring for my 6 year old son who is recovering from cancer. This job will allow the flexibility and meet the “out of public” requirement as our family needs to avoid illness while he recovers. Other than a 2-3 hour clinic visit twice a week, I am home and available. I have a fenced in yard back yard and a mostly quiet neighborhood where kids can play in the street safely. I have 2 cats and a rabbit of my own. All 3 are indoor animals with free range of the house. My rabbit has his own little house in our living room that he can safely retreat to when he’s not out for play time. A perfect space for any curious pet visitors we may have as they won’t be able to access him and cause any ruckus. If I am coming to your home, you can expect more than just a quick feed and potty break. Owners leaving can cause anxiety and stress on a pet. I have the time and heart to offer love, playtime, or needed snuggles and comfort your pet might miss while you’re away.
About: I’ve had all sorts of pets growing up but I have the most experience with dogs and cats. I’ve been around many different dogs with all sorts of training and personalities. I have two dogs that we got when they were puppies and I helped train them. I taught them all sorts of things like the basics but also secret hand shakes and hand signals. I currently work full time and my hours vary. Sometimes I am available any time after 3 pm or any time before 12 am. But my schedule is completely free on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I care for pets by sticking to their feeding schedule, spread out times of play/interaction, walks, grooming, bathing, and light training. I do think it’s very important to make sure dogs are socialized with people and other dogs if able to. And for cats i know it is especially important to have activities for them or interactive play time to decrease the chance of boredom.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since my teenage years and have had four of my own since 2009. Currently, I share my home with two sweet pups, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, basic training, giving meds, and giving each pet the individual attention they need to feel safe and happy. What truly sets me apart is how much I genuinely love being around animals. Whether it’s snuggle time on the couch or a long walk around the neighborhood, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I work full-time from home, which means your pet will have plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I rarely leave for more than a few hours at a time, so your pet will never be left alone for long. I love going on at least one long walk each day—it’s a great way to get energy out and bond with the pets I care for. I’m also available for in-home stays if your pet is more comfortable in their own space. My flexible routine allows me to adapt to your pet’s needs, whether that’s playtime, snuggles, medication, or just some quiet company. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, their comfort and safety are always my top priority. If I’m staying in your home, I treat both your space and your pets with the utmost care and respect. I’m clean, organized, and always make sure your home is just as you left it—if not better. During my stay, your pets will get plenty of love, attention, and companionship. For longer stays, if your pets are comfortable with other dogs and we’ve had a successful meet and greet, I would ask to bring along my friendly 2-year-old rat terrier. He's well-socialized and loves making new friends. If your dog is staying at my home, they’ll be part of a fun, friendly environment! I live with my roommate who has a sweet 4-year-old poodle mix, and both of our dogs are playful, well-behaved, and love having company. We also have a large, fully fenced backyard—perfect for playtime, fresh air, and zoomies.

“Maryam came out and met Chase and I prior to her first walk with him! She was really wonderful with him and was familiar with our community so very helpful! She allowed time for Chase to sniff her and get comfortable with her while we talked. I appreciate her calm but confident presence! There first walk went great!”

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!

We want your pet to be comfortable in any space!

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 your Kentwood. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Kentwood.

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 Kentwood. On Rover:
- 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
