“Felix took amazing care of our dog, Zara. She still has a lot of puppy energy. She is a rescue and we have only had her two months so she is still working on her manners. Felix wasn’t fazed by this and was patient with her. He often also has other dogs staying with him and Zara loved getting to play in their beautiful yard. Zara felt right at home and we would recommend Felix to anyone!”


“Marissa was wonderful. She took our pup last minute. She was great at communicating & sending updates. We will for sure use her again in the future!”


“Blue had a great time with Dale and his dogs. His communication with us was great from the start, sending updates everyday of his stay. Made us feel comfortable from the first meet and greet. Will be booking with him 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.”

“Repeat customer here. Goose loves hanging out with Christina, Michael and the family! They take great care of Goose and always send regular updates so I never have to worry while I’m traveling for work.”

About: I’ve been responsible for friends and family’s pets since roughly 16, more recently cats in the last 4 years. Plenty of experience all the way from small skittish beagles to large reactive pit mix’s. The key is patience and that’s one thing I can promise with your pet, understanding and dealing with different breeds, ages, sizes, behaviors and sometimes even disabilities/health concerns (we love em all). Also have experience with cats, all the way to senior cats with disabilities/health concerns (hearing & kidney failure) to fat cats with spicy attitude, I would like to say I have a plethora of different experience to care for your pet. Lastly, I think I would be a great sitter by being patient and simply understanding what pets mean to people! I do work full time in office but have work from home flexibility, as well as I pick my hours so can be available if needed. I prefer boarding on the weekends but can be available during the week! I can be available to let your dog out every 2 hours if needed, as well as give medication, feed them, and play with them as well. I live in a 1BR Deluxe duplex, have half of the first floor house to myself, so ample room for another or two. Do have liter box, as well as enough space for another if needed. As well as enough space for a dog crate and their favorite toys, food and treats :) My young pit mix has plenty of space shared with Gibby my cat, but they always choose to lay on the same bed together !
“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.”

“Jenna is amazing! She was ultra responsive when it came to booking and she made it super easy. The boys absolutely loved her and had a great time. They came home all tuckered out. We can’t wait to see her again!”
“Molly was wonderful and took great care of my spunky toy aussie! My dog got along great with Molly’s dog, and my dog doesn’t always get along well with bigger dogs. Molly sent pictures and made me feel at ease while I was away. She also took my dog on plenty of walks, so my pup was tuckered out when she got home. Highly recommend Molly’s services!”

“This was our pups’ second time staying with Dan and Kelly, and we couldn’t be happier with their stay. Dan and Kelly are communicative and accommodating, and we really appreciate them!”

“Gabrielle is very attentive with my dog make sure he is always comfortable and she also communicates with what’s going on with my dog makes me feel like it’s at home away from home”

“Let’s just start by saying my puppy is not for the faint of heart! She is a gsp, so by nature is very hyper and energetic and let’s be honest…. Kinda crazy! Megan did an amazing job caring for her while I was away on vacation! I received daily updates which I loved because this was our first time away from her! And she has a friendly dog that kept her occupied the whole time!! Not once did I worry about my puppy while I was gone which is nice because this pup is like my baby! Also Megan has a fenced in backyard for additional play area which is also nice. Will definitely be booking again in the future!!! 😊🐶🐾”

“Jake and Alicia took great care of my old fluffer - including tips on how to take care of his dry nose! Thanks for all your efforts in making him as welcome and comfortable as possible!”

“Susan was a wonderful caregiver to our Darla. She sent us messages with updates letting us know our girl was settling in nicely. She also made us aware of the extra TLC she gave Darla the first few hours as she acclimated to her home. This was our first time leaving Darla with someone outside of family and we are so grateful Susan was available and so sweet to our girl. We highly recommend her. She’s an excellent caregiver and comforter!”

“Piper had a wonderful time with Jenn. I loved all the pictures she sent showing the great care that she was getting. There are wonderful communication while we were away. I had no worries about the care Piper was receiving. We will definitely book with Jenn in the future.”

About: I believe the best pet care starts with getting to know each pet and their individual routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that means walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, potty breaks, or simply giving your pet some extra love and attention. I’m happy to send regular updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your furry friend is doing well while you’re away. I’ll also make sure to keep their space clean, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! I work from home every day as a full-time remote employee, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and playtime, and I can even care for pets while their owners are at work. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment and have plenty of experience having my family dog come stay with me. I’m also a very active person who loves walking and running, so I’m happy to bring an energetic pup along for some exercise and adventure! When your pet stays with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and at home! I’ll follow their normal feeding, potty, walking, and sleep routine as closely as possible and give them plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. Since I work from home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m also happy to take dogs on walks or runs if that fits their normal routine and energy level. My apartment is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, and I’ll make sure your pet has a calm space to relax. I’ll send regular updates and pictures so you can see how your furry friend is doing while they’re staying with me! Because I live in an apartment, I do require dogs staying in my home to be fully potty trained. 🤍
“David was great! He treated my dog like he was family. I had absolute faith that my dog was right at home and all his needs were being met. I knew that I could leave my dog, with high needs and a big personality, in his care and he’d be in great hands. He sent updates & photos as well. Highly recommend!!”

“Sarah made drop off and pick up smooth and accommodating. Dog was happy at pick up and seemed to have awesome stay and socializing times with other dogs. Sarah will be the first choice the next time we need the dog sitter.”

“Very professional, very thorough felt very comfortable and at ease being away, knowing that she would be taking care of her would hire her back in a heartbeat. Ozzy gives five stars as well.”


“Molly did an awesome job watching Ivy! She was very communicative, reliable, and clearly an animal lover. Looking forward to having her back in the future for more drop ins ?”


“Lauren was amazing! This was my first time using a service to watch my pet, and she made the process seamless. She communicated if there were any questions. I will definitely recommend her to others and will use her in the future!”

“Kate was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time leaving our cats for more than two days. They can be a little spicy when meeting new people, but they’ve liked Kate right from the start. My mind was at ease because I know they were in good hands. Kate provided us with a daily report and pictures. We will absolutely have her watch our girls again and again! :)”


“Ali is an amazing pet sitter. She spent good quality time with our cats, feeding and playing, left the house very clean and neat and kept us well-informed every day. She really went above and beyond and we 100% recommend her!”


“Oh my goodness, amazing! It’s clear she is an animal lover and caretaker. The thoughtful updates on what the kitties were up to and what she did during her time at the check in were so helpful and made me feel so at ease. Will DEFINITELY rebook. Thank you SO much Moira!!!”

“Holly was absolutely amazing!! She is great with our two cats and they do well with her even with having shy personalities. We will definitely be using Holly for any future trips.”


“Ema sent photos and detailed notes from all of her visits. Anytime something came up she was quick to reach out and ask for next steps. I appreciate her communication and attentiveness!”


“Jaqelynn did a great job with my difficult cat, and managed to give her oral medication at every check in so that I could concentrate on my work trip instead of worrying about my cat. Jaqelynn exceeding my expectations for a new-to-my-cat sitter, and I will definitely book her again!”


About: As a cat owner, I am most familiar with cats. I understand their body language and knew shelter cats were often upset before other staff members even realized. I have experience dealing with aggressive cats, feral cats, and extremely frightened cats. Staying calm and knowing you can never be faster than the cat is key! These experiences set me up great to take care of almost any domestic cat.
“Genevieve was very prompt in her response and had great communication! My dogs were taken care of and I had no messes to clean up when I came home, which is always a plus! Would highly recommend her for your pet care needs!”


“Booking with Kelsey & Forrest to take care of my cat was such a great experience! They were very communicative, sent pictures and videos of my cat, provided updates, and took very good care of my girl 🐱. This was my first experience with Rover and it was very pleasant. If you want someone that’ll take care of your pet like their own, don’t hesitate to book Kelsey & Forrest. I will definitely book them again in the future :)”


“Katie is wonderful. My normally shy cats loved her immediately and that means a lot to us. She sent us great pictures on every visit and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future!”


“Morgan is awesome! Took great care of our cat while we were away and kept us updated and kept our mind at ease that he was taken care of. Great communicator & super kind human!”


About: I have been taking care of and training my cats for 4 years. I would have started earlier but unfortunately my family is allergic. I’ve trained my cats recall, to sit, stand on 2 legs, and harness training. I’ve also administered medications and can do if necessary. I love my kitties and I’ll love to take care of yours!

“Maia is amazing and took such great care of our Mo while we were on our trip. She communicates well, leaves detailed notes of each stay, and sends lots of pictures. I truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better!”


“First time using River and got so lucky with Melissa. We booked kinda last minute but she was super flexible and came over to meet our cats the next day. She recognized my older cat wasn’t eating much and made sure to put food out to ensure she got nutrition. She was super sweet and I know our kitties got plenty of interaction and play time. It gave us such peace of mind to know Melissa was watching our girls. If we need a sitter in the future, I would definitely reach out to her.”

“Joshua and his pack made Jasper's first stay with them a very good experience. He started making friends with Finn and a little bit with Rocket. Joshua cares a great deal about his visitors. Great job Joshua and his pack! We will definately use his services again.”

“First time here and Cub seemed to have really enjoyed himself. He clearly played a lot with the other dogs as he was spent when we got home! I’ll for sure be bringing him back again :)”


“Can’t say enough good things about Dale and how he cares for Cashew! 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for an awesome and reliable person to care for their loved ones!”


“Another 5-star stay with Jacy! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cinder always has the best time with her, and I never have to worry about him while he’s there. She takes great care of him, keeps us updated, and somehow manages to keep up with his insane amount of energy 😂. We’re always happy to have someone we trust take care of him. Highly recommend Jacy!”


About: I’ve always had animals of my own, basically since I was old enough to walk. I started my own pet-sitting business when I was 13. I’m the go-to for friends and family when they need their babies cared for and I love every breed. I studied veterinary medicine for a number of years and have more recently begun to train dogs, as well. I work full-time but I make my own schedule. I also live just a few minutes away from my work and can pop back to my house when need be. I’m already taking care of our senior dog, our new puppy, and our two cats. I love being outside and taking the babies for walks. I have a fenced in yard as well as two other dogs and two other cats. I have a large crate as well as two portable enclosures and no shortage of extra bowls, blankets, toys, and towels. I live in a great neighborhood and there is a park a block away. It’s important to me that animals are well taken care of and I love spending extra time playing and snuggling with any babies I get to hang out with.

“Ki was flexible with my work schedule needs and was very communicative in sending pictures and updates of Benji. She brought him on plenty of walks too. Her excitement to meet Benji reassured me that he was in good hands.”

“Great experience. She was flexible with our arrival and departure times, as we were running behind for both. Dog seemed quite happy when we picked her up. Would absolutely use Sarah's service again. Thank you.”

“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!”

“Marina was wonderful! I had a complicated schedule and she worked with me to figure out the best options for me and my dog. My dog loved her and was so excited to go back and see her!”

About: I've had one or more dogs in my life since I was 6 years old. I currently have a senior red heeler that I rescued 8 years ago. Not only have I grown up taking care of my own dogs, as an adult I dog sit quite regularly for friends. I do work from home, which affords me the opportunity to take breaks to interact with and toilet my heeler and any other dog we have visiting, on their schedules. I work from home, so Monday thru Friday, I rarely leave my home, except to take the dog for walks. I may go away in the evenings, during the week, for a couple hours, but that's rare. I do tend to be more active on the weekends, doing my grocery shopping and running other errands, as well church on Sundays, and an occasional brunch. I do have a fenced in back yard as well as a senior red heeler (as stated earlier). My heeler doesn't really pay much attention to other dogs, and seems to prefer the company of humans. That being said, he gets along great with other dogs.
“Melissa was absolutely awesome taking care of our dog, Finn! She’s so friendly and Finn felt comfortable with her right away. I felt good leaving him in her hands. I definitely recommend her if you need some doggie daycare!”

“Miller had a great day with Daniel. This was his first time being away from us and when I picked him up he seemed very calm and happy. Daniel kept me updated during the day with pictures of my happy boy which I really appreciated. Excellent, timely communication as well.”

“Haley was a perfect fit with my dogs. She picked them up for daycare. She sent lots of photos that showed my pups were having fun. Then she brought back happy and tired dogs. Thanks Haley”

“This was the first time we’ve left our dogs overnight and the first time we had anyone visiting the house without us being there. Everything went so smoothly and Kate was excellent. She was able to manage our 2 giant dogs and 1 curious cat with no issues. They were all very spoiled with lots of pets, walks and attention. We loved seeing all the photos showing all was well.”

About: Over the past four years, I have house-sat a multitude of times for all types of animals; birds, dogs, and even cats. I make sure that they get lots of love and playtime when I'm with them and any other requests by the owners. I have administered medicine to pets while I have house sat so there would be no worries while you are away! I have experience with foster dogs as well and volunteer at Animal Rescue Project. I am a college student so I have a very flexible schedule! With my classes, there is plenty of time for me to spend time with your furry friends and give them all the love they deserve while you are gone! When at your home, I'll make sure that your pet(s) gets fed on time, takes long walks, is let out when needed, and gets plenty of time to play. I also love to take pictures to send when you're away because everyone needs to see their fur baby while they are away. As the owner of two dogs, I understand the importance of wanting someone that you can trust to take care of your loved ones and I always make sure I provide the service and time that I would want for my pets.
About: I have about 6 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve worked with high‑energy pups, shy dogs, seniors, and everything in between. I’m reliable, patient, and always focused on making sure each dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m here to give your pup the attention they deserve. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend lots of time with the dogs in my care. Availability: Monday 7 am - 5 pm Tuesday 7 am - 7 pm Wednesday 7 am - 5 pm Thursday 7 am - 7 pm Friday 7 am - 4 pm Saturday All day Sunday 12pm - 8 pm I've grown up with dogs and being around them feels natural to me. I understand that every dog is different and I enjoy getting to know their personalities and what makes them comfortable
“Thank you! Lillie was able to come by with very little notice and arrived right on time. She was easy to communicate with and very patient with Squidward, who is shy and nervous around new people. They went for a walk, and when the heat became too much for him, she appropriately brought him back early. I had a good first experience and will likely book with her again so Squidward can continue getting comfortable with her.”

About: I’ve had multiple dogs my whole life, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. I truly enjoy making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy. Beyond my personal experience, I’ve also worked in the healthcare field for a couple of years while in school, which has given me a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and attentiveness. In addition, I work with kids often, so I’m used to keeping routines, being playful, and giving lots of love and attention. I’d treat your pets like they’re part of my family! I’m a graduate student at GVSU, so my classes are on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday until 4PM and Friday until 12PM. Outside of those times, my schedule is very flexible, which means I have plenty of time to walk, play with, and take care of pets. I’m happy to work around your pup’s routine to make sure they get all the attention and care they need! I live in an apartment, so while I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I have easy access to the outdoors where pups can run and play safely. I also love going on walks and exploring the neighborhood, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. I will make sure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and part of the family while in my care
“Leah is great. She was able to accommodate a short notice walk for my pup Juice. Juice seemed to really enjoy the walk and was fast asleep within two minutes of getting home.”


About: I used to operate a rescue and shelter outside of Atlanta. I have experience with all types of animals in all types of conditions. Familiar with special needs, dietary restrictions, after surgery care, blind animals and more. I have always been an animal lover and I currently have 3 dogs I would like to make pet care my full time job. I currently do some side work in the construction field but would really enjoy spending all my time with the pets if possible I have a fenced in yard and two fully separated areas of the house and garage that open into the yard that can accommodate any animals who aren’t comfortable around other pets. I let my dogs on the couches and beds and they have free reign of the house
About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals in my lifetime since I’ve been 12 years old. I have also taken care of my extended family’s pets while they’ve been away. I’m working part time as a robotics coach but other than that I’m free to help out with pet sitting, dog walking, and check ins. I enjoy playing with animals and will make sure they get lots of attention when I’m present. I will follow any instructions that are provided.
“I am a very over protective doggie mom. I met Claire and instantly liked her and so did my Daisy. She helped us out for a few days and I cannot tell you how pleased and grateful I am for hiring her. She is wonderful with dogs (and mine is strong and a bit wild). My dog LOVES her! I cannot recommend Claire enough! I wish this offered more than 5 stars!”

“Kevin has been walking our dog, Obi for a few weeks now. He’s always been on time and has great availability. We’ve had a few last minute (night before) bookings and he’s usually always happy to help. It’s great coming home to a tired dog and trusting that he’s getting taken care of while we are at work”

“Always just the best communication and such great care shown! I completely forgot to complete the booking but she still came and made sure my sweet girl was taken care of until I could respond and take care of my whoops. Thank you!!!!”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and make sure to give them the best care possible. I want to take care of them as if they were my own. During the week, I work full-time and don’t have a lunch break, but I’m typically available after 4:15–4:30 PM, and I’m off at 3:00 PM on Fridays. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a little extra company, I’m happy to help however I can. I make sure to always take dogs on walks, and give them extra care. I’m more than happy to sit outside with them (weather pending) and play or just hangout together.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. My dad used to train labs for retrieving pheasants as a child. I’ve always been a responsible pet owner. From rescue to full breed, puppies and seniors; large or small, all have gone through puppy training, and always up to date on any veterinary care. I’m able to administer meds and/or shots. They are not pets, but a part of our family. Our dogs are walked daily. I would love to walk and care for yours if my services are needed for your fur babies. Because I’m a stay at home dog mom, my schedule is super flexible to help with your pets needs. Walking, house sitting, transport, meds distribution. We have two dogs and two cats in our home. I’m able to walk yours, care for yours, administer meds, transport and pet sit in your home.
“Colleen has been walking our dog consistently for a few months now and our dog LOVES her! She has been super reliable, as we new parents and have limited time to go on long walks with our high-energy golden doodle. She also does a great job granted he pulls a ton. We are so grateful for her!”

“Our dog loves Breanna! She’s incredibly reliable and professional. She’s been walking our dog for over a year now and has boarded her while we were away. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“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.”

“Molly was wonderful and took great care of my spunky toy aussie! My dog got along great with Molly’s dog, and my dog doesn’t always get along well with bigger dogs. Molly sent pictures and made me feel at ease while I was away. She also took my dog on plenty of walks, so my pup was tuckered out when she got home. Highly recommend Molly’s services!”

She also made us aware of the extra TLC she gave Darla the first few hours as she acclimated to her home. This was our first time leaving Darla with someone outside of family and we are so grateful Susan was available and so sweet to our girl. We highly recommend her. She’s an excellent caregiver and comforter!”

I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that means walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, potty breaks, or simply giving your pet some extra love and attention. I’m happy to send regular updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your furry friend is doing well while you’re away. I’ll also make sure to keep their space clean, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! I work from home every day as a full-time remote employee, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and playtime, and I can even care for pets while their owners are at work. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment and have plenty of experience having my family dog come stay with me. I’m also a very active person who loves walking and running, so I’m happy to bring an energetic pup along for some exercise and adventure! When your pet stays with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and at home! I’ll follow their normal feeding, potty, walking, and sleep routine as closely as possible and give them plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. Since I work from home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m also happy to take dogs on walks or runs if that fits their normal routine and energy level. My apartment is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, and I’ll make sure your pet has a calm space to relax. I’ll send regular updates and pictures so you can see how your furry friend is doing while they’re staying with me! Because I live in an apartment, I do require dogs staying in my home to be fully potty trained. 🤍
“David was great! He treated my dog like he was family. I had absolute faith that my dog was right at home and all his needs were being met. I knew that I could leave my dog, with high needs and a big personality, in his care and he’d be in great hands. He sent updates & photos as well. Highly recommend!!”

“Stephanie put everything into watching our dog, and completely put our minds at ease while we were in Grand Rapids and having a busy week of events. We are from out of town, but I wish we could work with Stephanie every time! The best.”

“Alex was awesome! Warm, welcoming and flexible. GusGus had a great time playing with her little dog and getting snuggles from her sweet kids. I definitely recommend esp for happy dogs that “play well with others””

“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.”


“Kijah was so friendly and communicative. Louie received excellent care and made so many friends! I had a scheduling blip and needed to extend the time last minute and Kijah was really flexible.”
