“Thank you for looking after Maizy, twice! I appreciate the communication and photos sent, I know she had a very good stay with your family :) I’d be very happy to book with you all again!!”
“Emily is the best ever!!! She spends quality time with my little Nelly. She keeps me updated with pictures and messages. I can feel so confident when my Nelly is in her care!!! Can’t say enough about her care for my dog”
“Dan and his wife were absolutely incredible! This was our first experience with Rover, and certainly will not be our last! Dan’s communication was excellent! He sent daily updates, photos, and videos during our time away. I truly felt our pup was so loved and cared for! Hands down would recommend Dan to anyone and everyone! Thank you!!!”
“Excellent Rover experience! Rachel is very caring and consistently provides updates throughout the stay. Our dog is always very excited to see her. We recommend Rachel highly to all!”
“Jenny is a fantastic sitter. She takes very good care of our senior dachshund, and updates every day! We feel very comfortable leaving our little Charlie with her.”
“Chad is always so pleasant and takes great care of my quirky dog Murphy. He sends plenty of updates and debriefs me on how the stay went. Murphy always comes home tuckered out after a weekend of fun. I highly recommend booking with Chad!”
“Caroline was AMAZING with our two girls - she gave us updates with pictures and our girls had an AMAZING time with Gator! Would HIGHLY recommend Caroline for any visits and we will be back again ❤️”
“We were SO pleased with how Erin and Brian took care of Willow! Even with little quirks that Willow had, they were willing to adjust to make her comfortable. We would highly recommend them to watch your fur babies.”
“We were very happy with Tracy and her daughter taking care of our dog!! Our dog was so exhausted from playing and being spoiled she slept so much when we got home! Highly recommend Tracy!!”
“Paige does an amazing job with our lab, Ike. He loves that he plays out in the big back yard that is safely fenced to play!! Page also has Ike rest/relax as part of the family and chill. Ike really enjoys his visit to stay at Paige’s house. ?”
“Felix has some of that 'dog whisper' magic. He was generous with sharing his home and love while watching our dog. We can tell our dog felt secure and relaxed while under his care and had some fun of his own while we were away.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. As a devoted dog owner of three, caring for animals is an integral part of my daily life, and I extend that same level of attention, responsibility, and affection to every pet in my care. I am fully comfortable handling all aspects of daily dog care, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, enrichment, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to be home for most of the day throughout the week, as well as on weekends, providing consistent supervision and companionship. I also have the option to work from home when additional attention or frequent potty breaks are needed. In my household, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment. Dogs always have access to fresh water and are fed twice daily (or as often as your individual dog requires). Potty breaks are provided frequently based on each dog’s individual needs and cues; however, I am more than willing to follow a more structured schedule if that is what your pet is accustomed to. I am also experienced with administering medications, including monthly heartworm and flea prevention, and take great care to ensure all medications are given accurately and on time. While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I share my home with three friendly dogs, each with their own unique personality: an energetic and affectionate Boston Terrier, a more reserved but sweet Boston Terrier, and a laid-back Chihuahua who enjoys staying close by. They are well-socialized and can provide companionship for visiting dogs when appropriate. My home is set up to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I have three individual crates with comfortable bedding available for dogs who are crate trained or require confinement, and you are always welcome to bring your own crate if it helps your pet feel more at home. While my own dogs enjoy free access to the house and are allowed on the furniture, I am happy to follow your pet’s established rules and routines, including using gates or designated areas if needed. Although my yard is not physically fenced, safety is always a top priority. My dogs are never outdoors unsupervised, and the same standard of care applies to every pet I watch. I have a large, open yard that provides plenty of space for exercise, and I regularly walk dogs on a leash around the property and in the neighborhood. If your dog is most comfortable on a leash or tie-out while outside, I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences. All of my dogs are current on their vaccinations and receive routine veterinary care. I pay close attention to changes in their health, behavior, and overall well-being, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat both your home and your companion with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training, household rules, and daily routines to ensure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you are away. At bedtime, I am happy to follow whatever sleeping arrangement your pet is accustomed to, whether that means sleeping in a crate, on their own bed, or sharing a room with me. My goal is to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable. My boyfriend and I live together, but I will be your pet’s primary caregiver. He may occasionally assist if I need to step away briefly, providing additional supervision and support, but all communication and primary care responsibilities remain with me. For added peace of mind, I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive, compassionate, and responsible care throughout their stay.
“My Dog, Buffy, stayed with Matt for a week. She is 14 years old and she's a nervous girl. Matt was so good with her! He was with her night and day. He fed her according to my instructions. She has very few teeth left. He has a sweet dog ,Memphis, who was very good with Buffy too. I would highly recommend Matt to take care of your pet!”
“Fantastic all-around. Our little guy has been comfortable from day one, the communication is fantastic, and we’ve felt at-ease with Kristopher and his family while needing to travel on short notice. Definitely utilizing them again!”
“We have complete trust in Todd & Maureen for our somewhat hyper female lab mix. I think she enjoys being there with the other dogs they have and where she can run in their back yard and yet stay indoors as she is used to doing. And I am sure she loves the AC on these very hot days we have had recently. We appreciate the pics and updates while we are vacationing. Highly recommended.”
“Soly did such an amazing job watching Freya for a week! She was immediately comfortable with him, and I can tell she had a great time. Communication was thorough and excellent, your dogs will be in incredible hands!”

“Heather was excellent and took care of our dog and cats while we were out of state for 10 days.

We will absolutely contact Heather again when we need a pet sitter. Thank you Heather!”
“Allison took wonderful care of our cat, Walter. She made sure he had his wet food, spent time playing with him, and gave him lots of love and treats.

“Sidney did great the pups really seemed to enjoy her. The only thing that she forgot was locking the back slider door upon leaving the house, but still totally worth a five star review despite the small over sight.”
About: I’ve taken care of many different fury friends since I was a kid. I have currently have a dog of my own, but enjoy quality time with all animals:) I just graduated PA school and have not found a job yet, so I’m looking to make extra money.

I appreciate any tips/tricks to give your animal the best experience possible.

She followed instructions perfectly, ensuring the cats were fed, played with, and given plenty of attention. It was clear from the daily updates and pictures that my cats were happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kerrigan for anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional cat sitter.”
About: Although I do not currently own any cats, I grew up in a home with them and have extensive hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages. My parents still have cats, giving me ongoing opportunities to help care for them whenever needed. I am dependable when it comes to feeding, playing, cleaning litter boxes, and providing companionship. Whether your cat enjoys active playtime, quiet cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I will make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I am also happy to accommodate any special care instructions or routines to help keep your cat happy and maintain the consistency they’re used to. From energetic kittens to senior cats, I understand that every cat has a unique personality and individual needs. I treat every cat with the patience, respect, and affection they deserve, and I will care for yours as if they were my own.

About: I have decades of experience living and working with dogs and cats. I also have animal training experience. I enjoy meeting new animals and their people.

“Sabrina was excellent! She took care of our five cats and three farm birds. She gave us a very detailed update, updates and photographs and videos of everything. It was above and beyond any previous pet sitter we have had. We would highly recommend Sabrina and we would definitely use her again. 💗🙏”
About: As someone who not only has pets but spent over a year working at a pet store I’ve cared for many different types of dogs, learned how to read animal behavior, and understand the importance of safety, routine, and trust. I’m reliable, attentive, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and well-being Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have both a dog and a cat, so I’m used to balancing walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Because I already plan my days around caring for my own pets, it’s easy for me to incorporate walks, drop-ins, and sitting for others. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes timely feedings, regular walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of attention. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and I closely monitor their behavior to ensure they’re happy and safe.
“Heather is awesome! Our pup Luka loves her, and we can tell she loves visiting him just as much. She does a wonderful job letting us know how visits go (including if our dog uses the bathroom, drinks/eats, had play time, etc). Heather shares photos of her time with our pup as well, which is so fun to see while we are away. She does a wonderful job cleaning up any messes and caring for our little guy. Highly recommend Heather. We will continue to book her!”
About: Hi! I’m Morgan, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to a 10-year-old son and a 3-year-old daughter, along with our two dogs, Nike and Max. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I truly couldn’t imagine a home without them. Both of my children have grown up around dogs and have learned to be gentle, respectful, and loving with animals. Creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care is something I take seriously. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so my goal is to make you feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re one of my own. Every pet deserves plenty of love, attention, exercise, and individualized care, and I’ll make sure they receive exactly that. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member and provide them with the love and care they deserve!

About: We are a Christian home with a very active family! I’m thankful that my job allows me to spend most of my days at home with the kids and dog. Our dog is very friendly and loves new visitors. She’s smaller, but loves the big dogs best! My daughter on the other hand loves the smaller dogs. We will happily welcome them all! My dog and I frequent the dog parks, hiking trails, beaches and walks through the town. I used to be a former 4-H member with my childhood dog, so I’ve got many years experience with training and showing. My love and patience is huge for dogs. I prefer a dog to be kennel trained, and come with a crate but an open to discussion. I am very flexible and I will most certainly work with you with whatever you may need. Look forwarding to meeting you and your pup. We are home the majority of our days, tending to our hobby farm, and enjoying time outside. We have a very flexible schedule, and are willing to accommodate. The dogs are always fed separate, and separated when I leave! Pets are allowed on beds, and couches. They will get lots of time outside with us.
“Caroline takes such good care of Clover every time she visits! She is always happy to go, is relaxed when she comes home. It’s so nice having somewhere Clo loves to go and we can trust. Thank you Caroline!”
“Reyna was wonderful! My 15 month old English Setter had a great day playing with the kids and a couple of other dogs. Reyna sent tons of photos throughout the day and was so easy to communicate with. Norman was clearly in good hands. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Amy was absolutely amazing with Maverick! From the minute I met her, I knew she was what I was looking for in someone to take care of our puppy. Attentive and kind and sweet - true lover of dogs! Thank you for giving us peace of mind while away!”

“Jenny was awesome with Buddy. She Provided a nice calm place for my very senior dog. I was impressed by the care and concern she showed for his arthritis and special needs. I am super thankful for her flexibility in accommodating Buddy for my travels. Highly recommend.”
“My girl Kona absolutely loved Holly! Holly gave her all sorts of opportunities to play and explore, and gave Kona lots of attention. I could tell that she gave Kona the same care and attention that I would. I highly recommend letting your puppies stay with Holly!”

Their care is our #1 priority. We have scheduled meal times and always ensure fresh water is available. We also take time to make sure they have plenty of exercise and fun.

“This is our first time using daycare, and Emily made the whole experience so comforting. She was welcoming, kind, and truly wonderful with our dog. We felt completely at ease and confident that our dog was in good care!”
“Joshua is awesome with my puppy! His own dogs are great with other dogs and are very patient with my pup. He seems to do well with training too, all positive reinforcement. Very happy with him!”
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.
“Libby is the best! She does such a great job with Bo and he loves going to see her. She gives regular updates, takes him to the park and on hikes, and is very attentive and responsive. Highly recommend!”
About: I have pet care experience of all kinds including breeding and stud service, shots and weening. We have a large open floor plan with a 4 stall garage to roam. Price will vary if dog is not fully potty trained or in heat during their stay. I am a stay at home entrepreneur allowing me to be present with pets while they are here. I am also a groomer! My husband and I believe this is a great opportunity to be able to love on all kinds of different breeds as our own and a fun way to take care of some of the most precious pets. That being said i will only accept crate trained dogs(for their safety) they need to be able to be crated safely while we are away for a short or longer amount of time. There are no cats or dogs here (unless confirmed by you that its okay to board at the same time as another families pet) so you won't have to worry about your pet getting along with anyone else while they are here. Be sure to check your collars and leashes of any wear and tears before dropping them off💛 tell me about your dog and we will see if it will be a good fit🧡
“Libby walked right in like she was visiting family and seemed very happy at the end of her visit. I could tell she enjoyed herself. I really appreciated the good care she received from Susan!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, currently have a rescue that is a Cur/Dalmatian mix. I fostered a German Shepherd and just found him his forever home! My previous pup was a pure bred red-nose pit! I work from home so am available for all needs! And yes, my dog does sleep on my bed! Lots of outdoor toys to tire them out! I have a fenced in yard and a “puppy pool” for those hot days! I live in a quiet neighborhood with an excellent dog walking route, even have a neighbor who put out dog treats in a mailbox for frequent walkers!

“We love having Ava walk our lively Schnoodle. He needs his walk every day, and his humans are sometimes busy or not feeling well enough to take him. We really appreciate her! And it makes Kevin very happy!”
About: I am an experienced pet owner and have cared for multiple cats and dogs at the same time, including puppies, kittens, and dogs of all sizes. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pet. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and communicative. I’ll send photos and videos during my visits so you can see that your pet is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of care and attention. I also understand that life doesn’t always go as planned, so I offer last-minute care whenever my schedule allows. My goal is to provide calm, confident, and compassionate care so your pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for until you’re home again. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, and many holidays. My open availability allows me to accommodate regular visits as well as many last-minute requests. I treat every client's home with the same respect and care that I would my own. Your pet's safety and well-being are my top priorities, and I'll ensure your home is secure, clean, and exactly as you left it. You can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and attentive during every visit.
About: For dogs who need more energy burned off, I’m happy to do a run instead of a walk, depending on weather and your dog’s needs. My pace tops out at a 10-minute mile, and I can get down to a 9-minute mile as the weather cools. If your dog is comfortable with other dogs, I’ll also bring along my own dog, a blue heeler, to run together. On the flip side, I’m also a big believer in “sniff walks” — letting the dog lead the way and take in all the smells they want, at their own pace. I listen to podcasts during these, so I’m well-practiced at going slow and staying patient. I treat every pet like my own: plenty of attention, patience, and care, plus updates and photos so you know they’re in good hands. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I have a flexible work-from-home schedule this summer and into the fall, which gives me time most mornings for pet care. I’m out and about with my own dog anyway, so fitting in visits or walks is easy. I’ll be taking on as many visits as I can, since it fits naturally into my routine right now. I follow the owner’s care instructions closely — feeding schedules, routines, and any specific needs the pet has. Clear instructions upfront make for an efficient, friendly visit and a happy pet. I always make sure doors and gates are secure before and after a visit, and I send updates and photos so you know exactly how things went.
About: Im a lifelong animal lover who finds so much joy in keeping pets entertained. I have experience with nail trimming, walking, and bathing. I have a flexible schedule for families that work and need pet care. I’m excited to take care of your fur babies, keep them safe, and bring you peace of mind. I currently work part-time as a line cook, since school is out for the summer. I will be attending college in the fall to pursue my dental hygiene degree. I am available Monday, Tuesday ,and Wednesday all day for same day booking or scheduled booking walking, sitting, and grooming. I make it my number one goal that all pets are safe and entertained, while in my care. I am diligent about making sure that doors/gates are latched and keeping a close on your pet at all times. I want to help keep your pet on their routine that makes them happiest. I’m happy to follow specific instruction in order to make your pet feel at home.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away.

On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment.

While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I share my home with three friendly dogs, each with their own unique personality: an energetic and affectionate Boston Terrier, a more reserved but sweet Boston Terrier, and a laid-back Chihuahua who enjoys staying close by. They are well-socialized and can provide companionship for visiting dogs when appropriate. My home is set up to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I have three individual crates with comfortable bedding available for dogs who are crate trained or require confinement, and you are always welcome to bring your own crate if it helps your pet feel more at home. While my own dogs enjoy free access to the house and are allowed on the furniture, I am happy to follow your pet’s established rules and routines, including using gates or designated areas if needed. Although my yard is not physically fenced, safety is always a top priority. My dogs are never outdoors unsupervised, and the same standard of care applies to every pet I watch. I have a large, open yard that provides plenty of space for exercise, and I regularly walk dogs on a leash around the property and in the neighborhood. If your dog is most comfortable on a leash or tie-out while outside, I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences. All of my dogs are current on their vaccinations and receive routine veterinary care. I pay close attention to changes in their health, behavior, and overall well-being, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat both your home and your companion with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training, household rules, and daily routines to ensure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you are away. At bedtime, I am happy to follow whatever sleeping arrangement your pet is accustomed to, whether that means sleeping in a crate, on their own bed, or sharing a room with me. My goal is to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable. My boyfriend and I live together, but I will be your pet’s primary caregiver. He may occasionally assist if I need to step away briefly, providing additional supervision and support, but all communication and primary care responsibilities remain with me. For added peace of mind, I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive, compassionate, and responsible care throughout their stay.
About: We lost our dog, Sophie, 2 years ago so until we find our next rescue I love watching other dogs to get my "dog fix" I work full-time from 7:30am-4pm Tues-Fri. I do work from home on Mondays and I'm available weeknights and weekends. I'm willing to come to your house or your pet is welcome to come to mine. I live in a quiet development where I can walk your dog easily on sidewalks and we have a large yard to play fetch. We also have lots of dog toys we saved.
About: I have decades of experience living and working with dogs and cats. I also have animal training experience. I enjoy meeting new animals and their people. I currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible. I am able to take frequent breaks to give animals care, attention and activity. I currently have a house with lots of space, with a big yard and 40 acres of walking trails to entertain your special fur baby.
“Ricardo is amazing! First time using Rover and I absolutely picked the right person. He scheduled a meet-and-greet to introduce himself and get to know my dog. They were completely at ease with each other. Ricardo’s a proactive communicator, provided regular updates, and was always friendly and punctual. I highly recommend.”

I’m available to take them for walks, feed them, and play with them anytime! Open availability mornings, nights, and afternoons! How ever long I am needed I have invincible fence for my two dogs. They are my best friends and will do whatever I need to make sure they’re happy! Will treat your dogs the same way!
About: I have had pets my entire life. I knew very young that I wanted to work with animals. I have a great love and compassion for them. I will take great care of your babies! I have a lot of experience caring and working with dogs. I have hobby farm experience (dogs, cats, chickens and a horse) as well. I am a Licensed Veterinary Nurse, therefore, I am educated in many aspects of caring for your pet. I know what to look for in case of illness, injury, etc. I can also do some other tasks, like toe nail trims, ear cleanings, etc. I am a dependable, trustworthy person who knows how important your pets are to you. I look forward to caring for your pets and/or walking your dog.
About: I have cared for animals with higher abilities and security training. I've nursed rescue pets back to health and have a great network of vets and other pet professionals. I do not have a standard work schedule at this time. I am self employed and happy to do my best to exceed your expectations. I am an open communicator. I listen to the human and animals verbal cues and body language to discern the comfort level, desired schedule, and overall lifestyle. I do not force animals into sitatuons where they are extremely uncomfortable. I smile, move slow, and try to match the dogs energy. If they want to run, we can! If they need to sit by a tree and relax, I am happy to get some pets while we wait. I also monitor the body language of surrounding animals to avoid miscommunications between pets.
About: I’ve lived with cats my whole life. I’ve had the responsibility of feeding and cleaning them since I was 14. I am very excited to take care of other pets and keep them safe. I feed my two cats three scoops each day (three scoops for each of them), give them lots of fresh water, and clean their litter boxes every day. I not only take care of my pets to make sure they are safe and healthy, but I play with them and have lots of fun with them.

Both of my children have grown up around dogs and have learned to be gentle, respectful, and loving with animals. Creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care is something I take seriously. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so my goal is to make you feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. As a devoted dog owner of three, caring for animals is an integral part of my daily life, and I extend that same level of attention, responsibility, and affection to every pet in my care. I am fully comfortable handling all aspects of daily dog care, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, enrichment, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to be home for most of the day throughout the week, as well as on weekends, providing consistent supervision and companionship. I also have the option to work from home when additional attention or frequent potty breaks are needed. In my household, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment. Dogs always have access to fresh water and are fed twice daily (or as often as your individual dog requires). Potty breaks are provided frequently based on each dog’s individual needs and cues; however, I am more than willing to follow a more structured schedule if that is what your pet is accustomed to. I am also experienced with administering medications, including monthly heartworm and flea prevention, and take great care to ensure all medications are given accurately and on time. While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities.

“My Dog, Buffy, stayed with Matt for a week. She is 14 years old and she's a nervous girl. Matt was so good with her! He was with her night and day. He fed her according to my instructions. She has very few teeth left. He has a sweet dog ,Memphis, who was very good with Buffy too. I would highly recommend Matt to take care of your pet!”
“Fantastic all-around. Our little guy has been comfortable from day one, the communication is fantastic, and we’ve felt at-ease with Kristopher and his family while needing to travel on short notice. Definitely utilizing them again!”
“We have complete trust in Todd & Maureen for our somewhat hyper female lab mix. I think she enjoys being there with the other dogs they have and where she can run in their back yard and yet stay indoors as she is used to doing. And I am sure she loves the AC on these very hot days we have had recently. We appreciate the pics and updates while we are vacationing. Highly recommended.”
“Soly did such an amazing job watching Freya for a week! She was immediately comfortable with him, and I can tell she had a great time. Communication was thorough and excellent, your dogs will be in incredible hands!”
“Neeko loved staying with this wonderful family and they really seemed to enjoy having him. Actually, even though he was happy to see me, he didn’t seem to want to leave. That’s the best compliment of all, if you ask me. Will definitely ask them to take care of my pup again when the need arises.”
