“Emily took excellent care of our dog while we were away. She provided updates and photos of him. He came home clearly happy and was well taken care of by her. Will for sure use her again when we need to. Highly recommend”
“Kris, Lisa, and the kids are the best! Piper loves to play on the farm and then retire inside to cuddle with the family. They will love your pup like their own!”
“I can’t even accurately describe how wonderful Katlynn and her whole family are. This was a last minute booking for us and Katlynn absolutely saved our vacation! The pictures she sent daily were incredible and gave us the peace of mind to fully enjoy being gone! She went above and beyond to fit us into her schedule and treat our pup as if he was her own! We will absolutely book with her again! The only proof we needed that he loved being there was that while he was so happy to see us, he didn’t want to jump in our car! That said it all! 🩵”
About: Hi there! We're Sandy & Brad (& 16yo daughter, Clara) from Snowy River Farm in Freeport, MI. Our family has provided trusted pet & farm sitting service in the Kent, Barry & Ionia County areas for 6+ years. We've always had animals around whether it be dogs, cats, chickens, or sheep! We are a homeschooling family and we also work from home. Someone is almost always here! We're available to board dogs anytime we're not on vacation ourselves! We promise to treat your pet like family here at Snowy River Farm! Your pet will have the lower walkout level of the home to themselves. Brad works from home on that same level and we are all around very often. Our own small dogs will stay on a separate floor and not co-mingle your pet (unless specifically agreed by both parties). We can crate your dog(s) if that's your preference. Otherwise, a comfy chair with a blankie is just fine! ;-) *We prefer to do meet & greets first for everyone's benefit. Each dog we care for gets patient, loving, one-on-one attention tailored just for them. We’ll keep you connected with daily photo updates and little stories from their stay. If you want a sitter who treats your dog like family—offering room to roam, a peaceful farm setting, and plenty of cuddles—we’d love to welcome them into our home.
“Christine and her crew were incredible and did a great job. Thor came home exhausted and without any bad habits (begging from the table, attempting to get on furniture, etc). Great communication before and throughout the stay. Thor loved his time with Cornelius and is looking forward to his next visit.”
“Our Golden Retriever, Franklin seemed like he had an awesome time. I can tell Dan and Kelly are both big dog lovers and after Franklins first visit I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!”
“Wonderful sitter to my 2 small breed pups, one of which requires a daily medication and eye on her behavior/habits due to some health issues!! Amanda is so good about communicating with you, sending you pictures and videos and asking you questions about anything she’s unsure about. Working with Amanda you get the bonus of her family loving and caring for your pets, too! I’ve used Amanda twice for multiple day stays and have been very happy both times. Thanks so much!!”
“Christina was great with our dog Asher! She was great at communicating and sent pictures of him to us while we were on vacation and showed us how he was loving spending time with their dog. They even sent us home with a new dog toy for Asher and he loves it. Thanks for helping us out! We will definitely request to book with them again.”
“Jenn and her son took amazing care of my doggo! She really loves animals and was very easy to communicate with. My dog got lots and lots of play time and I got some very nice photos while I was away. Would highly reccomend Jenn. ???”
“Taya was amazing with Nala. My puppy had a great time and she was so well taken care of. I got lots of pics so I didn’t worry about her at all. Will absolutely send her again!”
“I would definitely recommend Melvin and Sean! This was our first time leaving our baby Charlie. As someone who deals with anxiety it wasn't an easy thing for me to do. However they made me feel completely at ease and assured me that he was safe and well taken care of. The photo updates they sent throughout the stay helped so much and truly gave me peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the wonderful care they provided! We will definitely use them again.”
“Amber was absolutely phenomenal with my kitty! This was my first time using Rover and I was definitely nervous dropping off my cat with someone, but Amber eased any stress I had. She sent lots of photos and videos and kept me updated throughout the days while I was gone. She put out all of the toys that I brought for her and I could tell that she really took the time to keep my cat entertained :) I highly recommend Amber for any pet sitting needs! I will definitely be rebooking for my next vacation!”
“Alexandra did a perfect job sitting for my pet. She made my dog feel right at home, kept me updated throughout her stay, and was very accommodating and flexible. Would happily have my pet stay again!”
“We always appreciate how well Ashleigh takes care of our two labs for long and short stays. They come home tuckered out from playing with Ashleigh’s pups and are always excited to return. Our boys can be a handful and Ashleigh is always patient and tolerant of their crazy antics - we’re so thankful to have such a reliable, dog-loving sitter for our pups!”
“Laura and her family were great! Awesome communication and you can tell they truly love your dog as if they are their own. We will definitely be using her again in the future. Excellent choice for boarding your dog! 5 Stars!!”
“This was an amazing! Chad was so kind and accommodating. Rotini was taken care of and he had an amazing time! I highly suggest booking with Chad, if we are back in the area, we will definitely book again!!”

About: Having grown up with Australian Shepherds and many cats, I enjoy discovering each pet’s quirks and habits. I take pride in giving individualized attention, affection, and care to every furry friend. I’ve also had experience caring for multiple dogs at once, having boarded up to three house dogs for several days. This taught me how to manage different personalities and provide consistent, attentive care. Pet care is part of my regular routine. I enjoy feeding, walking, and spending quality time with dogs, tailoring care to their personalities. As a part-time sitter, I’m available for boarding Tuesday and Friday nights, with drop-off and pick-up typically between 4–6 PM on weekdays and 9 AM–7 PM on weekends. I provide a safe, comfortable space for boarding dogs, including bedding, a crate or dog-proofed area, and toys for enrichment. Dogs are supervised and cared for with attention to their personality and comfort. Clients are welcome to bring any favorite toys or special items their dog prefers. I also love going for walks and can tailor to your high or low energy dog!
“Taya was the best! I am so happy I found the best sitter for my dog. She was so flexible especially with respect to the pick up and drop off timings which was very important for me. She also sent pictures and videos during the stay regularly. I will definitely approach her for any future boarding of my dog and I will highly recommend her to others too.”
“Maggie was incredibly accommodating and patient with me and last minute request. My husky loved playing with her Luna, and I love the idea of her being in a home instead of a concrete kennel.

About: Hello! Thank you for considering me for one of the most important roles in your pets life. I grew up with pets, volunteered at the humane society taking dogs out for runs, and now continue a life of advocacy for all animals! I currently work with both cat and dog rescues and pet sit often for friends and family. Having used pet sitting services before, I understand what it is like to put your trust in someone else - and will make you and your pet my number one priority. I will always ensure you receive updates and confirmation of the fun your pet is having. I look forward to connecting and spending time with your fur baby! I am a mom to an active toddler. We love getting outside as much as we can, and staying busy inside when the weather isn’t so inviting. We are in an apartment community that has safe sidewalks and lots of green areas (or snow!) for dogs to explore. We live on the second floor so your dog should be comfortable with stairs as well.

Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet companionship, I meet them exactly where they are. I’m attentive to routines, medications, feeding instructions, and subtle changes in behavior—and I communicate clearly so you always feel confident and at ease while you’re away. From cozy cuddle sessions to gentle play, enrichment, and structured walks, your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. Animals are my happy place, and it’s an honor to care for them 💗🐶🐱 I'm currently enrolled in The Animal Behavior Institute online. And my schedule is very flexible, as I can study my Carnivore behavior course anyplace there is Internet. I take my pet sitting job very seriously. It's my honor and responsibility to make sure all of your baby's needs are met. I follow any instructions and always double check locks, bring in the mail and take out garbage if needed. My priority is the safety and wellness of your precious baby. I always check in and give updates with photos!

I have experience with a special needs cat and dog and can administor medicines. Hanging out with animals is my favorite thing to do. You won't find anyone who enjoys playing with your fur babies more. I work Monday through Friday 8-5pm remotely, so my schedule is flexible. I am available on mornings, afternoons, evening, and weekends. I am also available on holidays. I would spend time with your pet to make sure they are happy and comfortable while you're away.

About: I know dogs very well. I used to pet sit when I was young and still do. I’ve had many dogs a few cats and some fish. I am currently not working at a place with a schedule. I have no human children. No school, my schedule is open. I have time to meet pets needs. I have a nice yard on the lake, I leash up the fur babies and walk about a mile twice a day. Trips out the yard I’m between. I have an electric fence I haven’t put in yet.
About: I’ve been helping my parents raise dogs since I was around 10 years old, our first dog being a collie we rescued as she wasn’t being treated well with her initial owners. We took her in and got her cleaned up, took care of the fleas she had, found her a good diet, and gave her lots of love and attention through it all. We took her on camping trips, out on the water to go fishing, out on walks and to get pup cups at the ice cream shop, her favorite place being my granny’s house. Alongside her, we raised three more dogs when they were puppies, each one two years apart. 2 of them are Australian shepherds, and one is a husky, all girls and grew to form their own little pack, respecting each other’s place and playing happily in a big fenced in back yard. We supported our collie till her last breath as she was elderly, and even as she was so old, she always had her usual, laid back and quirky personality. Even now, I continue to help my parents take care of our dogs, as they’re not just pets, they’re our family, our fur babies, even in they’re old stages of life, they’ll always be our little babies in our hearts. So rest assured, your fur baby will be 110% safe and cared for with me, maybe even a bit spoiled! LIFE UPDATE!!! I’ve been hired as a camp counselor at Camp Bow Wow, a doggy day care and overnight boarding facility! Right now I have training scheduled from June 30 to July 2 and July 6, all for days I’ll be unavailable from 11 am to 3 pm. Once I’m done with training, I should hopefully be getting a work schedule that I will use to update my scheduling here on Rover! So please forgive me for the next couple of weeks while I get everything settled! With specific instructions written on paper, I have no issues accommodating to your pet’s needs in your home! I’m respectful during visits in others homes, treating them as my own and keeping spaces clean and tidy. With proper cleaning tools, I can clean up accidents on hard surfaces or rugs, I may need a demonstration on how to use a specific cleaning machine or vacuum depending on how complicated it is. I’m not allergic to any animal, or any breed, so pet hair doesn’t bother me! If need be, I am able to administer oral medications with proper instruction and demonstration. On walks I make sure to keep dogs close to me and away from the road, I carry doggy bags, and on hot days, I’ll carry a little folded up bowl that I can poor water in, so your baby stays hydrated!

About: We’ve always had dogs in our family! I’ve also watched and walked many pets of my friends and family’s! I love all types of dogs! I am currently a part time server who goes to school 2 times a week. I am available any times in the morning and night, just not as much during the afternoon. I am a very responsible and respectful person, I always make sure I leave the house looking better then when I got there ! !

“Emily took excellent care of our dog while we were away. She provided updates and photos of him. He came home clearly happy and was well taken care of by her. Will for sure use her again when we need to. Highly recommend”
“Kris, Lisa, and the kids are the best! Piper loves to play on the farm and then retire inside to cuddle with the family. They will love your pup like their own!”
“I can’t even accurately describe how wonderful Katlynn and her whole family are. This was a last minute booking for us and Katlynn absolutely saved our vacation! The pictures she sent daily were incredible and gave us the peace of mind to fully enjoy being gone! She went above and beyond to fit us into her schedule and treat our pup as if he was her own! We will absolutely book with her again! The only proof we needed that he loved being there was that while he was so happy to see us, he didn’t want to jump in our car! That said it all! 🩵”
About: Hi there! We're Sandy & Brad (& 16yo daughter, Clara) from Snowy River Farm in Freeport, MI. Our family has provided trusted pet & farm sitting service in the Kent, Barry & Ionia County areas for 6+ years. We've always had animals around whether it be dogs, cats, chickens, or sheep! We are a homeschooling family and we also work from home. Someone is almost always here! We're available to board dogs anytime we're not on vacation ourselves! We promise to treat your pet like family here at Snowy River Farm! Your pet will have the lower walkout level of the home to themselves. Brad works from home on that same level and we are all around very often. Our own small dogs will stay on a separate floor and not co-mingle your pet (unless specifically agreed by both parties). We can crate your dog(s) if that's your preference. Otherwise, a comfy chair with a blankie is just fine! ;-) *We prefer to do meet & greets first for everyone's benefit. Each dog we care for gets patient, loving, one-on-one attention tailored just for them. We’ll keep you connected with daily photo updates and little stories from their stay. If you want a sitter who treats your dog like family—offering room to roam, a peaceful farm setting, and plenty of cuddles—we’d love to welcome them into our home.
“Christine and her crew were incredible and did a great job. Thor came home exhausted and without any bad habits (begging from the table, attempting to get on furniture, etc). Great communication before and throughout the stay. Thor loved his time with Cornelius and is looking forward to his next visit.”
“Our Golden Retriever, Franklin seemed like he had an awesome time. I can tell Dan and Kelly are both big dog lovers and after Franklins first visit I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!”
“Wonderful sitter to my 2 small breed pups, one of which requires a daily medication and eye on her behavior/habits due to some health issues!! Amanda is so good about communicating with you, sending you pictures and videos and asking you questions about anything she’s unsure about. Working with Amanda you get the bonus of her family loving and caring for your pets, too! I’ve used Amanda twice for multiple day stays and have been very happy both times. Thanks so much!!”
“Christina was great with our dog Asher! She was great at communicating and sent pictures of him to us while we were on vacation and showed us how he was loving spending time with their dog. They even sent us home with a new dog toy for Asher and he loves it. Thanks for helping us out! We will definitely request to book with them again.”
“Taya was amazing with Nala. My puppy had a great time and she was so well taken care of. I got lots of pics so I didn’t worry about her at all. Will absolutely send her again!”
“I would definitely recommend Melvin and Sean! This was our first time leaving our baby Charlie. As someone who deals with anxiety it wasn't an easy thing for me to do. However they made me feel completely at ease and assured me that he was safe and well taken care of. The photo updates they sent throughout the stay helped so much and truly gave me peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the wonderful care they provided! We will definitely use them again.”
“Alexandra did a perfect job sitting for my pet. She made my dog feel right at home, kept me updated throughout her stay, and was very accommodating and flexible. Would happily have my pet stay again!”
“We always appreciate how well Ashleigh takes care of our two labs for long and short stays. They come home tuckered out from playing with Ashleigh’s pups and are always excited to return. Our boys can be a handful and Ashleigh is always patient and tolerant of their crazy antics - we’re so thankful to have such a reliable, dog-loving sitter for our pups!”
“Laura and her family were great! Awesome communication and you can tell they truly love your dog as if they are their own. We will definitely be using her again in the future. Excellent choice for boarding your dog! 5 Stars!!”
“We were nervous leaving our little pup for the first time. The care provider sent us pictures during her stay. Puppy was happy an well cared for during her stay. So comforting to now we have excellent options for puppy care.”
“Emily took great care of Mario while we were out of town. She was super comfortable with our very excited dog from the first time they met, and communicated with pictures and texts during his stay. Mario had a great time with them and his new friend, Skeeter! We absolutely won't hesitate to send Mario to Emily for future visits!”
