About: Hi! I’m a proud husky dad who recently moved to Grand Rapids and I’m excited to meet all the fluffy friends in the area. I believe every dog deserves kindness, structure, and a bit of fun along the way. My style? Positive reinforcement with clear boundaries—lots of praise, gentle guidance, exercise, and treats (when earned!). Whether your pup needs a calm walk, some high-energy play, or just someone who gets their quirks, I’m here for it. In my free time, I volunteer at the local shelter walking dogs and helping out however I can. I’ve raised my husky since he was 4 months old—so I understand the ups and downs of house training, daily exercise, and building trust. From basic obedience to fun tricks like “play dead,” I’ve trained my own dog with patience and love. I aim to create a safe, relaxed, and fun environment where dogs feel at home—even when they’re away from it. If you’re looking for someone who’ll treat your dog like family, I’d love to help. Let me know what your pup needs—I’ll take care of the rest. 🐾 As a house dad, I have a flexible and consistent schedule while my partner works full time. I’m available Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 3 PM, which makes me a great fit for weekday walks, drop-in visits, or play sessions. I’m looking to use that time for something active and meaningful—and spending it with dogs is the perfect way. Please note: I’m currently unavailable for boarding, but I’m happy to provide dependable daytime care during the week. I know how much your dog means to you—mine means the world to me too. I keep things calm and easy so your pup feels safe and relaxed. I take my time, earn their trust, and make sure they’re comfortable and happy the whole time we’re together.

“I would highly recommend Maelee. She has walked Scout multiple times now and is always on time and a great communicator. Plus the cute pictures after the walk are always an added bonus 😊”

“Rachael is very reliable, she’s always on time and spends more time with my dog than she has to which shows that she really cares and wants to make sure my dog is well taken care of while I’m at work.”

About: I seem to be a magnet for anxious dogs and cats! Both my senior cat and adolescent dog have behavioral issues/anxiety, and while it has its challenges, I find bonding with these guys can be the most rewarding experience. Between slow, gentle movements, not rushing a bond, and having lots of treats on hand, I've learned that "difficult" personalities don't always have to be so hard. I work 8-5 on weekdays, with Mondays and Fridays being working-from-home days. I can easily incorporate lunch-time and evening visits into my schedule during the week with open availability on weekends. After adopting an anxious/reactive dog, my partner and I have invested countless hours into a training program that works for us. Through this experience, I've learned the power of positive reinforcement, consent for touch, and patience even when it's the most difficult to find it. I'm a huge believer in redirecting unwanted behavior rather than punishment of any kind. Love and respect is the driving force behind all of my interactions with animals!

“Linda is very reliable and great with our dog!!”

“Michelle took great care of my dogs with regular walks while I was on vacation. I came home to happy, healthy boys! I would hire Michelle again; she will take great care of your pets!”

“Madison is really patient and sweet with my 3-year-old Boxer, Sophie. Madison's communication is great and she's very reliable. I am so happy that I found someone I trust to walk my dog. Sophie's had 4 walks with Madison so far, and she gets so excited when she knows Madison is coming to get her!”

About: I absolutely love working with dogs! I have at least 9 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats! I volunteered in the cattery in Humane Society and walking dogs as well. I work remotely and can flex my schedule to spend time watching pets or walking your dog. I am very flexible and I can easily work with your scheduling. I have a backyard, but I prefer to walk dogs frequently and take them outside myself for fresh air and outdoor play. We have only 1 pet rabbit, and keep him separated when there is a furry house guest.

About: I’ve cared for animals of all sizes and personalities; from tiny lap dogs to powerful Akitas, and from playful kittens to senior cats with medical needs. With 28 years of experience, I’m confident handling a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and routines. Whether it’s giving medication, going on long walks, scooping litter boxes, or just offering some extra love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it's regular walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m able to tailor my routine around their needs. Pet care fits naturally into my day; I genuinely enjoy it and always make it a priority! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any routines or instructions closely to help pets feel at ease and keep their environment familiar. I make sure they’re never left unattended for long, always have access to fresh water, and get plenty of love and attention. I also keep spaces clean, secure, and calm; whether it’s cozy nap time or active playtime, I aim to create a stress-free, loving environment.

About: I currently work at a PetSmart Pet Hotel, where we take care of cats and dogs. I have years of experience taking care of cats, dogs, reptiles, amphibians, and many other animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me as well as relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and take care of their pets. I am currently working at a PetSmart Pet Hotel. I work part-time, anywhere from 20-37 hours per week. I also take care of pets in my apartment building for my neighbors from time to time. I have reliable transportation to and from clients homes. I am good with all animals as well as all breeds of animals. I will give your fur baby lots of cuddles and I will make sure that they are happy.

“Clear communicator, flexible with scheduling, sent regular updates - Gabriella is great!”

About: Ive had/taken care of dogs since I was a young! Love walking, playing and looking after pups. So I believe I would be best to care after your fur baby when you need me too! Pet care currently fits into my schedule cause I got injured at work so I have to take some time off and I need something to do that I enjoy doing! Also in the process of starting a drone business so any bookings go straight to that! Thank you! I understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly. I provide a calm and patient environment and always go at your dogs pace. I stay in tune with their comfort level, needs, and routines. My focus is to build trust with both of you and to make sure your pup feels safe, loved and cared for!

About: Animals have always liked me, even the ones that "don't like people" have magically liked me and I take that as the highest compliment! I've taken care of a wide variety of pets my whole life, so I'd feel comfortable caring for your furry, scaled or feathered friends like they were my own! My day job is taking care of people as a Physician, so I promise to be kind, trustworthy, loving and patient with your fur babies so they get the care they deserve while you're away. I work remotely with plenty of flexibility in my schedule for drop-in visits, walks or longer stays throughout the Grand Rapids area so your pets can be comfortable and well taken care of while you're away. I am happy to follow any specific instructions for your pets to make sure they have exactly what they need to thrive. Beware, I have been known to give too much love, attention and treats to cute pets...so yours may be spoiled if you choose me to take care of them. I will do whatever is needed for your fur babies while you're away. Whether it's walks, playtime, meals, cuddles or trips to the park, I'll make sure they are well taken care of. I will make sure your home is left exactly the way I find it and will treat your space with respect while I'm there.

About: i’ve raised newborn puppies before. i know how stressful it is to find a sitter and work a full time job. money isn’t the main thing for me, i care for animals soo much and understand the stress that comes with them sometimes. i work on friday - sunday (7am-7pm) but i am free between sunday evening through Thursday evening. or after 7pm on the weekend. so i am very flexible my basement is very open and the back slider door leads to the backyard that is not fenced in. but i do have a 20 foot lead they could be attached to to roam around.

About: For the past few years, I've been assisting friends and relatives with pet care. I'd been pet sitting for the past five years! I've been in the rover app helping pet owners for the past 3 years. I enjoy getting to know each pet and their families. I have two kitties and adore them. Animals will show you affection while also relieving your personal worries and tension!! This is why I appreciate and adore what I do. Besides pet sitting and assisting families, I get to experience their affection and they help me emotionally. 🫶🏼 I'm an early preschool teacher and a youth specialist, My schedule it's different everyday but we can always work something out by letting you know my schedule and if it works with what you are looking for. Most of the times I babysit as well so if you looking for a babysitter as well let me know!! I love communicating so we can find the right pet sitter for you! Whether it's me or someone else! I am used to watching a very mischievous husky so I consider myself good at keeping an eye on pets and staying active with them.
