“Ru is an attentive, kind, and responsive sitter! Our dog is a bit nervous around new people, but he warmed up to Ru well during his visit!”

“Susan has been a fabulous fit for our pups and our needs. She is a true animal lover, has a big fenced back yard where the dogs can frequently run and play, and she treats each dog like her own. Having my pups stay with Susan is like having them experience a trip to a “grandma’s” house, of sorts. They definitely get loved on!”

Cheri W.

“Again an amazing experience. Franklin loves being with his friends Roxy and Paco. At the end of the day he’s pooped and is fast asleep. Highly recommend working with Mimi!”

About: I’ve owned dogs all my life. I believe they are more than pets, they are trusted friends. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own. I work primarily from home. I’m away only 10-15 hours per week. I’m very flexible and willing to work with you for the love and benefit of your pet. I live in my new built home. There is a lot of area outside where we can walk, but I’ll never leave a dog unattended. I have my kids (aged 16 & 18) part time. They may be around. My kids love dogs.

“Bethany took great care of my dog while I was in town for the weekend and was very accommodating about the last-minute booking! Highly recommend!”

Stephanie B.

“Marina was super flexible with us and our schedule, which we really appreciated! She also was very patient and understanding with my anxious dog. She provided a great, comfortable environment for me and we will definitely use her again in the future!”

I work from home full time, which allows me to love on your pets even more! whether that’s going to your place during the day or them coming here, whatever works. My cats love company and I am more than happy to travel to your place. I love walks and will be so happy to take your dog on an adventure!

Your pet will get the attention and safety he/she needs and will be treated no different than our own.

Sami gets 2 walks and 3-4 bathroom breaks per day We treat your home with the same care and respect as ours and will follow your instructions very closely as instructed. Typically, bathroom break between 3-4 hours and at least 3 times per day for each dog

About: Hi! My name is Camryn, and I am the biggest dog lover you’ll probably ever meet. I recently moved to Grand Rapids away from my families 100 lb Husky Lab mix and I miss taking care of pups and having their companionship. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities! I’ve cared for dogs belonging to neighbors, friends, and family over the years. I work for myself from home, which means my schedule is very flexible and I’m here to give your dog the best care. I always make sure every dog feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I ONLY TAKE ONE DOG AT A TIME (unless from the same household), so your dog will get my undivided attention.* My apartment complex is very dog friendly and has a dog park for playing as well as a lot of space for walks. I would love to pamper your fur baby! I work for myself from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I love having dogs around while I work and can easily adjust my routine for walks, playtime, or extra attention whenever it’s needed. Can be very flexible to your needs as I make my own schedule. I live in a second-story, very dog-friendly apartment with plenty of space and a big dog park for walks and playtime. I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I also have room for crates, toys, etc.

About: My family has owned dogs since I was 2 years old, from puppies to rescues. I worked numerous pet-sitting jobs through school, then worked in a dog training facility, then a boarding facility, then a vet office, and now another boarding facility. I have my own dog, a German shepherd named Porter, who I’ve owned and adored for the last 6 years. That being said, he does need a lot of enrichment, stimulation, exercise, and attention, so I’m fully prepared to offer whatever your pet needs! I pay very close attention to instructions, so give me that detailed feeding routine! I can also accommodate senior dogs and dogs with medications, including insulin. We try to keep everything exactly the way things are with you, following your routines as well as your rules/expectations for your pet. We do allow ours on the furniture, but if you don’t then we can refrain while they are with us. Just give me some guidelines and I will be sure to take the best care of your dog! I am currently working part time, but will soon be cutting hours back so I can be more available at home for the family. That opens up a lot of time for me to be available for pets boarding in my own home! I am an EARLY bird, up around 5 and I stay up pretty late, so I can accommodate any routines or med schedules needed. I ALWAYS have time for animals! :) I have a large fenced backyard and a friendly dog to keep yours company! I am able to accommodate crating, as well as puppy potty routines and senior care. I am very in depth with the care of my own animals and stick to a routine schedule, so yours will be meticulously cared for!

About: Within the last few years, I've had plenty of experience with overnight dogsitting for family and friends. I've also been taking care of my family dogs since I was 11 years old. From feeding, to bathing, to running around the backyard, I've enjoyed every minute of watching my rescue dogs grow. I love all animals in general, and being a graduate student has prevented me from spending as much time with my pets as I would like to. As a sitter, I'd love nothing more than to give your dog the care and attention it needs! I have recently graduated from my Master’s program although will not be starting my full-time job until the new year. Until then, I am available most days during the week, and would love to devote this time to helping others take care of their pets. I am open to any kind of schedule, long-term or short-term. My partner and I live in a spacious first floor apartment with an un-fenced front yard. He and I are both animal lovers and would be happy to host your pet in our home.

“Caitlin has been a wonderful dog sitter for my pup! She gives such great care and I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She is very communicative. Would definitely recommend.”
