Pet care experience

Certified Dog Massage Therapist

I am a lifelong dog lover who has been working in pet rescue and dog fostering since 2009. Working in dog care full-time since January 2025. Sitting for your pets isn't just a side gig for me. I truly care about your pets and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. In early 2026, I completed my certification as a Remedial Canine Massage Therapist. And have my LLC (Relax and Heel pet care and dog massage) with insurance for pet sitting and dog massage. In the last year, I have done dog sitting and walking for various types of dogs, including high-energy, blind (special needs), young puppies, and those with medical care needs (post-surgery). My former career was in computer graphics, so I LOVE taking photos and videos and love providing fun recaps of my time with the pups with lots of pictures and video for the parents. **House sitting - for me, I do 12-14 hour overnights at your home, plus an additional drop-in visit (45 mins). Happy to add on more drop-in visits for a reduced fee of $20 a visit.** ***I service the northern and eastern Grand Rapids area and a general mile radius surrounding these areas. Those who fall outside of the general service area may be serviced for a small additional fee.***

Very pleased! All the animals (1 dog and 2 cats) were well taken care of with daily updates and photos. Amanda went above and beyond the agreed upon plan with a carpet cleaning from one of the cats, cleaning food/water bowls, and messages for the elderly dog! Highly recommend!

Mandee provided exceptional care for our 2 cats (& checked on our home/mail/trash). We appreciated the updates and pictures she provided. She played with our fur babies and made sure they were set with litter, food, and water each day. Would recommend and definitely book her again.

Amanda was fantastic with my dogs. She had taken the time before the visit to review all the details on my profile and was up to speed about my doggos quirks even before she came to the house. The dogs were very happy. (Which makes me very happy)

Mandy is a great communicator, she sends lots of photos and has been a great, reliable addition to our pet care routine while my husband is traveling.

Please feel free to provide as much information as possible. Never feel like it's too much. I leave behind a binder of info on my dogs when I leave them for sitters, and I'm happy to have as much detail as possible. It's really key to know what their main triggers are for stress, anxiety, and possible food allergies.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
