Maelee did an excellent job with keeping us in the loop on her visits. She even went back to check on our cats after she had some issues getting in!

Elise was great and did everything she said she was going to do and what we talked about with her beforehand.  She checked in and stayed with our Lana which at first I thought would be overkill but it was nice to know she was there to hang out a bit with her while we were away.  She took her for walks and even spent extra time watering our outdoor plants.   I’d recommend her and we will reach out to her again next time we need Lana looked after.

Katrina agreed to care for Coco last minute. Her usual caretaker could not do the job any longer. I had given the job to another person on Rover and they cancelled. Katrina came over for a meet n greet and walk to get to know Coco. She followed the directions given very well and I loved the pictures. Coco seemed to really love her and she was well taken care of. When coco was having problems sleeping Katrina added an additional daily walk and it really helped her. I would definitely tell others to use Katrina.

Kate has been fantastic with Kira. She made sure she had food and water, and even watered some plants and picked up packages from the door. She also sent me photos of everything. I’m really happy — thank you, Kate!

Shannon has been coming for drop in visits for our two pups 3 times a week for about 3 months now. My partner and I got new jobs where we would be gone for 11 hours of the day, so we needed someone to come and let them out during the middle of the day. She's been absolutely phenomenal to our pups (1 of who isnt a huge fan of strangers, but she warmed right up to Shannon), always sends pics of them playing, gives them extra water on those hot days, and she is so easy for mom and dad to partner with. We so love her coming to play with them!

I left my dog, Theo, with Kelsey and Forrest for a few hours, and definitely plan on using them again in the future! They were very accommodating, and facilitated a meet-up beforehand, so that Theo could get comfortable with them and their space before his stay. When I dropped him off, he didn’t even look back! Kelsey and Forrest are very trustworthy and obviously animal lovers.

About: I’ve had pets in my life since the day I was born. I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, fish, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs and even ducks! These days I have a dog (3 years old) and a cat (11 years old). I had a second cat who passed in 2022 from illness, so I have experience caring for animals of all ages and health. I am reliable, patient and caring with animals and will treat your pets like my own! My schedule is flexible and I am able to travel in the Grand Rapids area. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!! I work fully remote and have a very minimal meeting schedule Monday-Friday. My work is flexible so I am able to meet your pet care needs! I am also available on weekends! At our house, my dog goes potty either off leash in our backyard or on leash while we walk around the neighborhood. Our cat is strictly an indoor cat, but I grew up with indoor/outdoor cats and am happy to care for yours however you need! I’m here to meet your pets’ care needs, so please feel free to provide any special instructions. Whatever it is, I will be respectful of your pets, your space and your time.

About: I've taken care of my dog and family and friends dogs for many years. I even volunteered in an animal shelter for awhile as well! I currently run a small handmade business from my space. I spend a lot of time outdoors with my own dog, we like to run, play fetch, chase squirrels, and spend time treat training. I make sure a walk and quality time are prioritys with animals. I do not take dogs into my living space as I live with friends currently and on the road at times, so I prefer to go to your home and location. I'm very flexible! :)

Cindy went above and beyond with our three cats. She was communicative with questions when it came to our special needs cat and was extremely alert and attentive. Also kudos to her because our youngest can be a bit of a challenge, but she handed them all perfectly. I would definitely trust her again with our pets.

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.

I highly recommend Dawnn! I was out of state attending a family funeral and needed someone I could trust to care for my dogs while I was away. Dawnn provided drop-in visits, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of attention for both of my dogs. She kept in constant communication with me throughout the entire time, sending updates and making sure I knew how they were doing. Savannah already knew Dawnn, but this was her first time caring for Selena, and everything went wonderfully. It was clear that Dawnn genuinely cared about their well-being and understood what was best for them. Being away from my dogs during a difficult week was stressful, but Dawnn gave me peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter.

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!
