“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!”
“Dan and Kelly were amazing with our two dogs!! This is our first time using Rover and also our first time leaving our pups with someone who wasn’t our family, they are 8 & 9. Though we were fairly short notice, Dan helped walk us through the Rover process, allowed us to do a meet and greet ahead of time, and was very flexible with drop off and pick up. Not knowing how our dogs would do as a first time away from us with non-family, there was a lot of anxiety on our side and it all was put to rest with videos and pictures of our pups having a great time there! There’s no doubt our dogs have some quirks but Dan and Kelly took amazing care of them and made them/us feel very welcome! Their house is very pet friendly with the toys, beds, and large fenced in backyard. So grateful to have found them, and strongly recommend them for your furry family members!”
“Jacy is AMAZING! She made our sweet boy so happy. Spoiled him with constant play time and love. She communicated regularly with so many pictures. 10/10 recommend! We are so grateful for such excellent care!”
“Good people here! Trooper had a great time there. Sent pictures daily of my buddy on walks and snoozing. They are very flexible and communicate very well. Would highly recommend for your dog sitting. I will definitely be going back so trooper can see his new friends!”
“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.”
“Stephanie was wonderful with Frank!! He is an older guy with some anxiety, he seemed to feel at ease right away. She sent lots of updates and pictures while we were gone. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Mabel had another wonderful weekend with Melvin! We appreciate his communication and obvious love for dogs! We won’t hesitate to go to him again for our dog boarding needs!”
“This is the second time we’ve had our 2 pups stay with Jenn and she was AMAZING as always! Our pups were a little bit more work this stay and she was so patient, kind, and communicative throughout it all. I will always recommend Jenn to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“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!”
“Our dog hadn't been to a sitter in years. He had a great time and looks forward to a return visit with his new friends. Christie was great at keeping us updated with photos and updates.”
“Ohara and her family took great care of our baby dog! He was so happy and content all the time in the pictures. We are very thankful for the love and care you gave Levi and would come back again. Thank you!”
“Molly was extremely flexible, thoughtful, and took amazing care of our dog overnight. Her place is lovely and our dog was instantly comfortable. Her dog is very sweet and calm. Would book here 100% anytime we are in Grand Rapids!”
“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.”
“Ruth was fabulous. My little 7lb Maggie was a new rescue that I only had for 2 months. She was so scared of EVERYTHING. Ruth has a nice small and quiet home. She was able to give my little doggie the individual and personal attention she really needed. I felt completely confident that Maggie would be cared for very well. We even received pictures and updates regularly while we were away. I'll definitely be calling Ruth, if we go out of town again.”
“David provided the best care for our 2 pups! We were away for 2 weeks in which time David kept us updated on the well being of our dogs. He is a conscientious pet care provider 🐾🐾”
“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!”
“Wow, Marissa is the best. We got photos frequently and reports of how our furry friend was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with our crazy work schedules. Best sitter ever!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her. She is so knowledgeable, patient and very kind. Always updated me which was nice since this was his first time being away. Such a great experience and so happy to know that I can leave my baby with her and he is safe♥️”

“Brian took care of our kitten for us while we were on vacation. He arrived and left at the agreed upon times and took such great care of Peanut. He communicated and sent us pictures every time he visited which made my girls feel better about leaving him. He went above and beyond and helped us with some house things that we forgot about. We’ll definitely ask for his help again.”
“Maelee is great! She’s very thorough with her visits. I like her detailed notes and prompt communication. I have felt very comfortable leaving my cat in her care!”
“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 :)”
“Beth did well caring for our cats who "stress out" when mama's away. She even made an extra trip to double check on one of our cats who was being a bit of a spazzz. Quick to respond on the phone or via Rover's messaging options when needed. I'd recommend Beth as a stand-in Cat Mom when you need a sitter!”
“Sara did a wonderful job with my cat, Blaine. She arrived in a timely manner, played with Blaine, and sent specific and fun updates. She is watching Blaine again for my next vacation.”
“Kim did a great job looking after my cat. I can tell she cares a lot about the animals she looks after, and was great at communication. Even though my cat does the same thing every day, I looked forward to reading her updates because they were so fun!”
“Tyler took great care of my 3 cats while I was on vacation for a week, he even came over ahead of time to meet the cats! Tyler is incredibly friendly and has superb attention to detail. One of my cats needs medicine, and he was capable and comfortable with handling this. Tyler has a gift with animals and I wouldn't hesitate to book him again for future vacations. He even put our dirty pet food dishes in the dishwasher. Highly recommend!!!”
“We’ve used many great rovers and Jaqelynn ranks at the top! She went above and beyond to care for our cats and was a great communicator. We would feel great traveling again knowing Jaqelynn was caring for our cats!!”
“Thank you Suzanne (& family) for the wonderful care you provide to my senior cat. He’s old and requires more regular attention. Suzanne provided daily updates and was quick to respond to my messages.”
“Wonderful as usual! Hanna not only took great care of our cat (A++ service and photos/videos) but also watered a lawn we were re-seeding every morning, no problem. We know our cat looks forward to her visits - which makes us feel better while we’re away.”
“Kaitlyn is an AMAZING cat sitter who is reliable and trustworthy. She gives great updates and pics after each visit. I can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of my fur baby while we’re away!”
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
“Sophie was great! Highly recommend. She cared for my dog and made me feel comfortable that he was in good hands. Next time I need to go out of town I will definitely request her to drop in on my dog.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Kate took wonderful care of my cats while I was away for nine days. She is communicative and followed all directions given. She takes the job of pet care seriously. Highly recommend her!”
About: As the owner and sole proprietor of Cassidy's Priority Pet Care, I've had the pleasure of caring for animals of almost every kind. Growing up, I cherished my chocolate lab greyhound mix. Now, as a responsible pet owner, I have a rescue cat named Nemo and various small animals. Previously, I ran my own rattery, but unfortunately, due to the challenges posed by COVID, we had to cease operations. My cat enjoys a healthy diet of Purina One True Instinct dry cat food, occasional Whiskas treats, and other wet foods. The rats thrived in multiple-story Kaytee cages with a free roam space, nourishment, and dig boxes, and were fed a homemade mixture with a base of adult Oxbow rat food. Our two bunnies have a spacious outdoor hutch and indoor cages with premium-grade rabbit food, hay, and fresh salads, fruits, and vegetables for a well-rounded diet. I've always loved animals, I constantly joke I that I'd prefer animals company over peo(ple's any day of the week altho that statement might be truer a little everyday as someone who works in customer service. honestly though I've always found working with animals more then a passion but kinda a therapy for me and love to fill my free time with working with animals of all verity. As someone who loves animals I constantly strive to make sure that they're in a comfortable environment and mindset and always take in account the personality of the animals I'm working with to better handle each individual. When it comes to feeding time and or medication time I try my best to stay on a very strict schedule whether with my own animals or someone else's I make sure to put constant reminders on my phone to make sure that I keep to their regiment in order to keep them happy and healthy.

“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!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of Ivy yesterday. Unfortunately she had multiple seizures during the night and is not able to return today. I wanted you to know that it was nothing that you did to cause the cancellation. We hope to see you again soon.”
“My dog Lucio has a lot of anxiety with separation but he dealt with it very well when I left him with Kristopher and his family. The property is beautiful and big. Perfect for pets. Kristopher kept me informed and made me feel very comfort during the day through constant communication and reports. I’ll certainly use his services again!”
“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 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!”
“Easy and convenient. Joshua took such good care of our puppy while we attended a late night event that most day care services wouldn't be available. Chester was tired out and went right to bed when we got him home, which we appreciate! Will book again.”
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.
“Daniel is a natural with dogs. Both of our dogs went to him immediately and couldn’t wait to go inside. They are not always like that with new people. Daniel kept me updated with a few photos and texts throughout the day. Will definitely use Daniel again.”
“Chris and Vashti are great! They’re almost always available, even when I need daycare last minute. They share constant updates throughout the day. I get photos and messages showing Cinder Block having the best time, which makes it so much easier to leave him knowing he’s in great hands. It’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs they watch, not just going through the motions. Cinder comes home happy, tired, and clearly well cared for every single time. Couldn’t recommend them more.”
“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.”
“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: We have been with dogs and other animals our whole life and love dogs. Our Shiba Inu, Sami, is our fourth baby. Your pet will get the attention and safety he/she needs and will be treated no different than our own. Our work hours are flexible and we prioritize our walks with our pet so it will be the same as others. Sami gets 2 walks and 3-4 bathroom breaks per day usually at least 1 of them is off leash at a dog park. We are not a dog boarder, your dog will be in a home and will know the difference. We treat your dog with the same care as ours and will follow your instructions as instructed. Typically, bathroom break between 3-4 hours and at least 3 times per day for each dog. WE REQUIRE ALL CLIENTS TO PROVIDE PROOF OF RABIES AND DHAP.

“Rebecca was so amazing and it was so nice having such detailed info about the walks and how Jackson was doing with pictures! We booked last minute and Rebecca was such a life saver! We will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“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.”
“Brian did a great job checking in on Mochi when I had to work all day. He took him for a walk and made sure he went potty. Gave Mochi lots of treats and attention! Thanks again ?”
“My old pup can be anxious and ramped up with care givers so I am delighted that he was calm with Tyler. I will definitely have Tyler take care of my fur babe again knowing I can depend on him and will not be stressed while on vacation.”
“Kate has been walking my dog for a few months now. She's been consistent, reliable, and done a great job. My dog shoes her and the walks they go on. I would definitely recommend her.”

“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!”
“Kelsey is a delight and my pup Teddie loves her! She is caring and kind and a ray of sunshine in our lives when she visits Teddie and takes him for walks! 100% recommend Kelsey”
About: I am older and very experienced with both cats and dogs from babies to senior care to transitioning. I care for extended family pets when not home I work a part time flexible schedule so my availability is your convenience. My only day off is Sunday which I set aside for family My pets are my family. I volunteer feeding and caring for family/friends pets when they are away from home over night or away on vacation
“Jasmine is an awesome dog walker! She was very attentive and left some of the best notes I've ever had from a dog walker/sitter, which I really appreciated. She also used rover cards, which helps a ton, so I know where Moe walked and how far during the day. 10/10 will use again. I can also tell she has a lot of good experience working with animals. Thanks Jasmine!”
About: Hi! My name is Mouse and I love pets! I've been taking care of friends and families pets for about four years and working for rover for over a year. I am currently in Grand Rapids and looking for some lovely pets to take care of. Rover is my main source of income, so my schedule is very open and flexible! I currently have a very free and flexible schedule, as well as a car. I should have no problem making room for your pet in my schedule I believe in making sure your pets are fully safe and loved while you are away! I have no problem asking about what exactly is the regular routine of your pet to make sure they are the safest and most comfortable they can be without you.
About: I have extensive experience around all kinds of animals with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I love being around animals and am patient and attentive to make sure pets can feel comfortable and safe. I grew up with dogs, cats, and a guinea pig so I am well versed in pet care. I also understand the importance of routines, communication, and trust when caring for someone else's pet. I have worked as a pet sitter in Grand Rapids Michigan in previous years and engaged in pet walking, giving medication, and overnight stays with dogs. As a student, I am organized and responsible with caring for animals, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them! I'm currently working part time training to become a CNA, so I have lots of free time to take care of your pets! My weekends are completely open for any consistent care, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets company. When caring for pets within a client's home, I always follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, crate routines, litter box cleaning, and any other special care needs. I’m very attentive and make safety a priority by keeping doors secure and monitoring pets closely. I also believe trust and communication are extremely important when caring for someone else’s pets, so I’ll always provide updates and photos to help owners feel reassured that their pets are happy and in good hands.
