“Ross has been great with our black lab Maya! It’s been so nice to know she’s in good hands while we are at work. He’s been very flexible and accommodating to our schedules and I love receiving the updates and photos while at work. Don’t hesitate to book with Ross, your pet will be well taken care of.”


“Asked Mackenzie very last minute to help us out with our pups, and she came through! Reliable, communicated well, and fairly priced! We will be asking for her help in the future!”


“For my first time using Rover I wasn’t sure what to expect. Lauren did a great job with my “kids”. Both cats took their turn being shy with her but she had the patience to wait until they came out to see her on their terms. I liked that she gave me updates about the visit so I could give her real-time feedback on them. I will definitely use Lauren again!”


“Kerrigan was our first ever caregiver through Rover this past week. She did a wonderful job! I left a few things to her judgement calls based on the weather and how our 2 dogs were doing, one being age 16 years, the other is only 1.5 years. Kerrigan is very trustworthy, and made great decisions for us. She exceeded our expectations on flexibility and excellent communication.”


“Hallie is amazing! She loves our dogs so much and treats them so well. We always get great updates and the best pictures. I highly recommend her for your pet!”


About: I have had a pitbull-lab mix since April 2016, so I have plenty of dog care experience. I am most familiar with the pitbull-lab breed, but I am more than happy to care for any breed! I just need to know how the dog acts, like if it is shy/skittish, energetic, etc. I pay close attention to detail and communicate well, and I am very flexible! If at any point I notice any issue with the dog or am unsure about something, I will document it and reach out via text, unless you prefer I call or it is an urgent matter. I am a full-time student at GRCC, and will be taking 2 7-week classes in the summer before transferring to GVSU for Film & Video in the Fall. I also work as a laundry attendant at a hotel in Grand Rapids, and I usually work nights but I have open availability. Occasionally I will work early afternoons. Please contact for availability. I am unavailable to care for your pet in my own home, but I am happy to care for your pet overnight in your home, have a play date or potty break for your pet. If you have any requests, like using a particular toy or going potty in a certain area, meeting that need will be top priority.

“Lilly took excellent care of my dog this past weekend, sending a nice detailed update + some funny photos of him after each visit. You can tell she enjoys taking care of dogs and I came home to a very happy pup yesterday!”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. My family treats dogs like they are human children, and your dog would be treated like a prince or princess. I ask that you ensure your dogs are all up to date on vaccinations and neutered/spade. Dogs that are trained off leash will do better at my home since our yard is not fenced in. I am home Friday - Sunday. If I have to leave for any reason, then my husband or adult son or adult daughter are always home. I do not have small children in my home. I have 14 acres of relatively secluded farmland. We throw a ball for our dogs and also walk them along the White Pine Trial each night. If it’s rainy or cold, we go into our indoor arena and let the dogs play and run around. I only accept dogs that are good off-leash because we do not have a fenced in yard.

About: Hello, My name is Nicholas! My mother is a vet tech so since the day I was born I was surrounded by animals. She is my role model on many things and most important with animals. I see your pet not as a pet but a member of your family that I will go above and beyond for. I have pet sat in the past ( both cats and dogs) and I loved every minute of it. I've sat from hyper dogs to very shy cats. I understand each pet is different and requires different needs and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to keep your animals happy and healthy. Right now I'm Working just part time two days a week. I usually work till close (which is 10pm)but am more then willing to go on my lunch to check in on your animals! I have a fenced in yard and loving family members. We also have two dogs. There are also local parks near by and the neighborhood is nice and safe

“My puppy loved Izzy! She was so great with him and he loved playing with her. Izzy provided great updates for each visit. Would love to book her again!”


“Thank you Taylor for taking such good care of our beloved dogs. 😊”


“Jennifer is awesome. She’s always on time, spends quality time with the dogs, takes great photos and always updates us on how they were. We’ll use her as long as she’s on Rover!”

About: I've owned small and large dogs throughout my life - all are special and loved as part of my family. My children and I have watched our neighbor's dogs (along with turtles, fish, plants, etc.) and treated them as if they were our own. I am a full-time professor on summer break, allowing me the freedom to be available to watch, walk, interact with, and care for not only my own Mini Goldendoodles, but up to two additional small or medium sized dogs. I live at the end of a cul-de-sac with a large fenced in yard with a 12 lb Mini Goldendoodle to keep your loved fur babies company. I am able to crate your dog if needed. Additionally, I have found that many owners enjoy having daily pictures sent to them of their dogs enjoying their vacation here.

“Paige is amazing and took such great care of our family - we appreciate her more than she knows! We will be using her services again in the future ❤️”


“Mallory always does a fantastic job at watching my cat! She has been flexible and has helped when he has needed medication too. When she checks in on him, she actively gives him attention, plays with him, gives him treats, etc.”


“Julie helped me last minute with my cat. Great communication and nala was well taken care of. New sitter for me but I will book her again when needed.”



“Candis is great! Both of our dogs warmed up to her right away. Communication was fantastic and we didn’t have to worry at all about the care the fur babies were receiving while we were out of town. Thank you so much!”


“Jada is reliable and consistent. She did 9 drop ins for us. We’re very pleased with her care for our lil pups! She took pics and sent updates via Rover. We look forward to booking with her again in the future.”


About: Hello! I love helping people and love dogs so figured I would help people with their dogs!! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I have a 4 year old Australian shepherd— Archie!!! He keeps me busy & I definitely understand high energy breeds and what they need. Archie is one spoiled boy - but I wouldn’t have it any other way!!! I come from a family of veterinarians and my family owns a small pet boutique store that sells all organic and natural supplements and treats. You could say we’re a dog family! I work full time from home so I will be home most of the time with your pup! I usually do a morning, lunch time, and evening walk (unless it’s too hot!) All dogs will be treated as part of the fam!! They are allowed to sleep in bed with us or wherever they are most comfortable.
