About: Hi, I’m Lindamaria! I provide dedicated, high-quality care for dog owners who want complete peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾 Why Choose 1-on-1 VIP Care? Unlike traditional multi-dog boarding or daycare, I only host one client dog in my home at a time. Your dog will receive my full, undivided attention, customized routines, and a calm, cozy environment without the stress or competition of other pets. ⭐ Specialized Care & What I Offer: • Separation Anxiety Support: Gentle, attentive care for dogs who need extra reassurance when away from home. • 100% Focused Attention: Frequent walks, playtime, couch cuddle time, and tailored daily updates. • Safe & Low-Stress Environment: Ideal for senior dogs, anxious pets, puppies, or dogs requiring strict routine and medication administration. • Harness & Walking Familiarity: Experienced handling dogs using Gentle Leaders or specialized walking harnesses. Whether you need dedicated day care while attending local appointments or overnight boarding, your dog will be treated like family in a peaceful home setting! Feel free to send a message to check availability—I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I follow your dog's exact home routine to keep their day predictable and stress-free. A typical day includes morning potty breaks and breakfast, afternoon leash walks or yard playtime, and relaxing couch time in the evening. Because I only care for one dog at a time, your pet gets 100% of my time, attention, and care throughout the day. My home is a quiet, comfortable, and smoke-free environment. I have a safe area for frequent, supervised potty breaks and live in a great neighborhood for calm, enjoyable leash walks. Your dog will have full access to cozy indoor lounging spots and beds to feel right at home.

“OUTSTANDING!!!! We were so happy knowing that our dog was so well cared for. Michelle provided daily pictures and videos which made us so very happy knowing he was in good hands. He got more than enough exercise every day and just had a blast being there. We were afraid he wouldn't want to come home. Should we travel again we know where we want him to be and will definitely recommend Michelle to anyone we know who needs dog sitting services. We are just so very pleased and happy!!!!”

About: I don’t have “professional” pet sitting experience but I do have personal experiences. My grandmother had puppies that I helped caring for them. She had two shih Tzu puppies that I loved like they were my own. Sadly, they both passed away around the same time. I know how important it is to take care of your pets because pets are more like family than animals. So, I hope that you will trust me enough to take care of your family. I will listen to what you need to me to do. I can be flexible and go beyond the call of duty if necessary. I am open to learning whatever is necessary to be a great caretaker. I hope you choose me. Thank you very much❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾. I work in the evenings. So, I’m free every morning. I can take your pet out for walks or dog sit overnight. My schedule can be flexible I can take your pet out for walks or I can dog sit at night. If your pet needs a companion, I can do that also

About: I have nearly 5 years of pet-sitting experience caring for cats and dogs for family and friends. I’m attentive to feeding routines, fresh water, and keeping litter boxes clean so cats stay comfortable while you’re away. I respect each cat’s personality—whether they enjoy playtime or quiet company—and I also have experience giving oral medications if needed. My goal is always to provide calm, reliable care you can trust Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside my schedule at Grand Valley State University. I’m completely available Friday through Sunday, available after 12 PM Monday through Wednesday, and after 4 PM on Thursdays. I’m happy to plan visits around your pet’s routine to make sure they receive consistent attention and care while you’re away When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure pets are safe before leaving, keep their space clean, and communicate with updates so you feel confident they’re being well cared for. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and reliable experience for both you and your pet.

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and currently have both a dog and a kitten of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets! I work in healthcare, which has made me very responsible, attentive, and detail oriented. I have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving environment while keeping you updated for peace of mind :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for my own dog and kitten every day. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel comfortable and happy. Because I work in healthcare, I’m very organized and plan my schedule carefully, which allows me to reliably commit to the pets I’m caring for. I make sure to dedicate quality time for visits, walks, and check-ins so pets aren’t rushed and receive my full attention. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I prioritize consistency, safety, and making sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can keep their environment as consistent and stress free as possible. This includes feeding schedules, fresh water, walks or litter care, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely while giving pets companionship and reassurance while their family is away. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with supervision and structured routines so pets feel secure. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and give them the same love and care I give my own!

About: I’ve always grown up with many different kinds of animals from horses to dogs to bunnies. I have always been responsible for taking care of my own and family pets since I can remember. Some facts about me :) I am married and have two pets; a dog and cat. I love to bake, garden and swim. I am also an administrative assistant. I am available after work during the week, weekends and during lunch hours. I can provide meals, walks, potty breaks, play times and cuddles. Please reach out and ask any questions. 😊 My goal is to honor and glorify the Lord in all that I do and say. I believe in honesty, truth and love. I also believe that God has given humans a responsibility to be stewards to His creation, including animals (Genesis 1:26, Proverbs 12:10).

Brianna took care of Ziggy when my wife and I were away for the weekend. We were nervous at first because he had never been separated from us before, but we needn't have worried: Ziggy looked happy and healthy and well loved. Brianna is now our go to for pet sitting!

Michelle was amazing with our very high energy lab puppy, Roland. We left him with her for a long afternoon/evening while we attended our nephew's wedding and he had a great time playing fetch and going on several long walks. So glad to have found such a wonderful and welcoming caretaker - we will definitely use her services again!

Most bookings cost between $27 and $60 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

There are 184 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Muskegon. About 91% of Muskegon sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
