“Kaylan is a wonderful dog sitter!! She is a great communicator leading up to dog sitting and durning her time with our dog. It’s clear she loves animals very much! Kaylan took good care of our dog and left our home in the exact condition it was when we left for the weekend. Would love to book with Kaylan again!”

About: I love hanging out with all kinds of dogs and cats! Love going on car rides and taking them places too if they like! Especially getting pup cups! I work at a school and coach sports! I also play sports on some evenings and or night but always find time for your fur friends! I am a trustworthy pet sitter and house sitter! I will help take care the lawn and plants if needed! I clean up pretty well before leaving!
“Anna was great to work with. She cared for our 3 dogs and home immaculately while we were away for 8 days. All dogs were very well cared for, including one who is elderly and particular. We will definitely ask Anna for sitting again!”
About: I have grown up taking care of puppies and dogs in our family my entire life including Potty & Behavioral Training. We have an amazing yellow lab named Buddy that I adore and love caring for every day! He is a member of our family and we love including him in all of our outdoor activities and trips. A lot of our friends and family rely on us for dog care, walks, help with training and overnight pet care which we love! I am at home during the day with a big fenced yard right next to a huge park so we are the perfect choice for dog sitting, walking, boarding, etc 😄 100% safe environment and care for your pet. I know that our pets are important and loved members of the family and I will treat your pup just like they were my own! I am a consultant and work remotely so I have plenty of time to do drop-in visits, walks and pet care during the week and on weekends! I spend a great deal of time getting to know the best way to interact with the animals I care for in order to build a trusting relationship with both pets and their owners.
“Best sitter we’ve ever had. I’m super picky about my dogs, Dawn is so kind, and loves my pups as her own. I almost hate leaving this review because I want her for myself. 🤣🤣. You can’t go wrong with Dawn love her”
About: I have over ten years experience with pet care and dog grooming. I started at a small independent business in Columbia City, and now watch multiple pets in the neighborhood, including rats & bunnies! From extended overnight stays, to all day daycare, and dropin walks, to grooming, including brush outs, blow outs, and nail trims, I've done it all! My sidekick pug is always helpful with his chill energy. I've helped dogs learn how to walk on leads, do many tricks, and behave while being groomed, using patience and positive reinforcement. I truly enjoy hanging with our domestic furry friends, and hope to keep doing so. My home is open to all those wanting naps, walks, pets, treats, training, grooming, love, and so much more!
About: I love dogs and always have. I consider myself a dog whisperer because I can get even the most aggressive dogs to feel comfortable and play with me. I always had a dog growing up and have my own 2 year old girl lab. I work in office Monday-Wednesday 8-4pm, and am remote Thursday and Friday. I have weekend availability. I have 2 dogs of my own and am looking to get another soon! I know my boundaries and always make sure the pet is safe. Leashed walks, play time, snuggles, and yes I always pick up after my pet.

Macatawa pet parents share their Rover experiences
Melissa was wonderful! We have 2 Italian Spinoni and a cat. She made them feel at ease right away. I love getting pictures, videos, and updates and Melissa was very responsive to my request. She also had the dogs outside a good deal, which is what they love. One of my dogs is a challenge because he is somewhat nervous. Melissa gave him the time he needed to come around and warm up to him. I will definitely be hiring Melissa again!
