“Would definitely recommend Beth, Ruby had a great time. Beth provided space for Ruby to get comfortable and socialize with other pets. She provided updates as this was our 1st time leaving Ruby overnight. Thank you Beth for making Ruby feel at home during our trip.”
“Definitely a dog lover. You can absolutely tell she has a passion for having fun with dogs and she took in my doggie as one of her own. My baby was definitely happy to be there and play with Lexi and go to the park and have all the fun.”
“Frances and family were just awesome! We have a 4 month old puppy that stayed with them for 5 days while we traveled and he had a great time. She texted me updates daily, with pictures as requested; but most importantly loved our pup like her own. It made our trip even more relaxing knowing Charlie was taken care of so well!!! He will be back to visit her whenever we travel. Thank you Frances!!!! (And fam!)”
“This was our first time using Rover and Katherine was amazingly patient when answering all my questions about what we should expect. Unfortunately during the stay, one of our dogs had a difficult time adjusting, but Katherine did everything she could to ease her anxiety and make her comfortable. By the end of the weekend, there was quite a bit of improvement for Jessie. They sent pics of them and the dogs having fun which I thoroughly enjoyed.”
“Samuel and Daina were wonderful! The communication was great and they were diligent about sending photos/updates of our dog. It was a relief to know he was being well taken care of while we were away. I’d definitely recommend them!”
“I had to leave town last weekend and decided to see what boarding my dog Ding with somebody from Rover might be like. I hit the jackpot when I decided to reach out to Roman and Suzanne. Right from the get go they were extremely responsive and had the answers to all my questions. And so friendly! We did a quick meet and greet at their home and I instantly knew I’d be trusting my guy with them. Just really wonderful people and they clearly love the animals they take care of. And they sure took care of mine! I got lots of pictures and updates over the weekend, and Ding looked so happy in all of them. He really hit it off with their dog Sonic! The weekend flew by and after an easy pickup (they really made everything so easy!) Ding and I were back home. He totally crashed out after a fun weekend with his new friends. Cant recommend Roman and Suzanne and family enough! I’ll definitely be reaching out to for another upcoming weekend trip :) Thanks so much!”
“Sylvia was great! It was my first time using rover and she made me feel very comfortable with leaving my dog! She sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated! She was very respectful and attentive to the dog. Would use her again!!”
“Diana was the best dog sitter ever!! She sent us a bunch of pictures and wrote sweet updates on what Ellie was up to for my son to read. She was so thoughtful, took Ellie on a ton of walks and loved her like she was her own dog. I highly recommended Diana and will use her again!”
“Nicole did such an amazing job with our girls. Communication was great. She send tons of pictures to help ease my mind. Her whole family was so good with the girls. I will def use her gain when needed. My girls have a new retreat to go too. They loved it and her family.”
“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.”
“Anne and her family were so kind to watch my pup Dune last minute after our original dog sitting plans for vacation fell through. We did an initial met/greet to ensure our dogs got along and Dune loved playing with the other pups. Communication with daily updates and photos was awesome! Kenneling overnight. We were so grateful for your flexiblity and help! Thank you all for taking such great care of my boy :)”
“My husband and I had to go out of town for a quick sat-sun trip and Kristina made us feel so comfortable leaving Mabel with her. She shared several photos throughout the weekend and we appreciated the one on one care she gave to our puppy. We hope to book with her again in the future! 😄”
“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.”
About: I have taken care of animas my whole life. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and cats. Comfortable giving medications if they are needed. I am home all day Thursday through Sunday. The days that I do work, there is still time set aside for each pet after I arrive home. During the warmer weather, we typically spend lots of time outside. I have a fenced in yard. I do own 3 medium-large sized dogs that are great with other dogs. I do also have a cat and a toddler. I make sure that the toddler is never left alone with the animals. If I am doing drop by visits for pets, your home will be treated with respect and your pet will be taken care of appropriately.
“Micheal & his family were wonderful to Ripley! He was kept busy and given lots of love; Ripley’s Velcro personality was satisfied. Will be using Michael again - great care giver.”
“Brittany was so amazing with our dog! She sent lots of pictures (which we really appreciated) and was very communicative over text with updates! Our dog had a blast and we would 100% leave our dog with Brittany again!”

“Sam did a great job watching my cat while I was in the hospital. She went overboard to ensure Autumn was integrated with her own cats. The pictures and videos were really appreciated and helped make my hospital stay more bearable.”
“Allison was a great sitter and friend for Smitty for the three weeks we were out of town. There were many visits involved over this time period and Allison did a good job communicating with us about Smitty's various walks and play-times, what kind of mood he was in, whether he drank some water after play-time, and other info. She really cares about Smitty and enjoys the work. We highly recommend Allison!”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover that is patient and nurturing to pets. I grew up with both dogs and cats. For years I have been a reliable and trustworthy person among family, friends, and neighbors. I have extensive experience checking in on pets and playing with them throughout the day, dog walking, and overnight pet/house sitting for a variety of cat and dog breeds. I also have experience administering medication to pets if needed. For example, one dog I’ve watched many times had a case of kennel cough/pneumonia and/or ear infection that required daily antibiotics and ear drops. I am extremely passionate about pets and giving them the best care possible to ensure they remain healthy, active, and happy. I take pride in providing excellent care and peace of mind for pet owners. I also like to take photos of the pets each day or so to send to their owners to keep them updated and ensure their well-being.
“I so appreciated being able to easily communicate with Angi and the pictures Angi sent me with each visit. She did a nice job of keeping my two cats fed, watered, and giving them human contact while I was away. I will definitely request Angi’s help in the future.😊”
About: I have taken care of cats along side dogs when owning my dog walking and pet sitting business. My husbands family has always owned kittens and cats and my boys have grown to love them as well, so I have learned a lot and seem to have a special place in my heart for them.
“Heather is awesome! She came for a meet and greet before we booked which I appreciated. Heather is a great communicator. Ike was content when I returned home, and Heather sent photos while I was away. The house was immaculate. I highly recommend Heather. She is attentive, dependable, trustworthy and professional.”
About: I have grown up around cats and dogs. I also owned 3 cats. I have experience providing injections to cats and other medications. I’m comfortable with both young and senior cats. I also traveled with my cat from MI to Texas. My animals go where we move no exceptions! I would love to take care of your kitty!
“Brenna was amazing with our cat. She went above and beyond taking care of him and our house. My cat loved her and my mind was at ease while away knowing he was getting love and care. She gave very detailed updates as well as lots of pictures and always responded quickly. I highly recommend Brenna and will book her again in the future! Thank you!!”
“Addy came to our rescue when we needed someone to do a visit to take the dogs out with an extremely short turnaround. She came for a meet and greet the very next day, and took care of the pooches the next. She did a great job - the dogs loved her :-).”

About: I have pet sit, walked, ran, leash trained, and mentally stimulated dogs of all breeds since a kid. Each dog needs all of these things in different ways and I am here to figure that out to insure your pup and you get the best from me. I used to be under the LLC Dogs On the Run Grand Rapids, but life (two children, moving to Holland etc) put that on hold. I am now so excited to start giving Hollands furry family members what they need! I would love to meet you and work with you and your dog to give them the energy and visit or stay that they need! I have ran and walked dogs no matter the weather. Visits and Stays will come with pictures, arrival and departure time, a map of where we walked/ran, and any notes of our adventure! Send me a message and lets talk about your furry friend today! I am currently working, but that can be worked around your schedule and your pets needs. I am always willing to find the best scenario and schedule! For those going on walks and runs, we will work with what you use and what works best for your dog. All dogs are different. Also, what you want from your dog is different as well. If they need some leash training we can do that as well. My car is dog friendly, so if ball at the park is what they need, or a swim, I am down for that as well! Variety is the spice of life! For stays, I do have a dog of my own who is completely pet friendly, so of course our home is too! Any questions, Ask away :)
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. Our family has always had a dog and we couldn't imagine our life without them! I have also cared for our family, friends and neighbors dogs. I am a stay at home mom which gives me plenty of time to care for dogs! We are home most weekends and are available for boarding. We have a large yard, not fenced but we take a lot of walks and have stakes in the backyard for the dogs to play outside.
“Gave my boy a wonderful active day. Lots of walks and boy was he tired out from the day. Lots of playing and attention. Thank you so much! Will definitely rebook with Samuel if we come back to this part of the state. Made our anniversary trip so easy knowing he was safe and well taken care of. ❤️”
“Amber did a great job taking care of Riley and Henry. She agreed to watch my dogs on short notice and was very accommodating when I needed to extend their visit. Riley and Henry had a great time playing with her dogs too. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve cared for, trained, and loved animals for 40+ years and would be happy to care for yours while you are away. I know how important check ins are so you can be sure your fur baby is well & happy! I work from home most days so my schedule is flexible and allows me to be home with your fur baby! My home is comfortable and pet friendly and if they are sun seekers I have a great deck for them to lounge on. I have a fenced in back yard with room to roam and live in a safe cul-de-sac neighborhood perfect for dog walking! Couches are not off limits in my house 😊
“Jaronsa was a terrific dog sitter. She immediately bonded with Gretchen. We loved that she had last minute availability. Jaronsa has a bubbly personality and has great “dog” energy. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Another excellent Rover.com experience this Tim for Oscar with Frances and Jeremy! I felt comfortable with them right away. Oscar was a little timid at first but they knew how to handle it. It was good for me to not stress leaving him in hotel room by himself. Good for Oscar to meet new friends (first time he actually bonded with a guy). So appreciate you being so welcoming!”
“I was really nervous about leaving Chino with a non family member for the first time but Lauryn was so great about keeping me updated and sending pictures! I was very happy with her and would recommend her again :)”

About: I have owned dogs for over 15 years. I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up around large German Shepherds, a Doberman and too many cats to count.

Both love other dogs and get along great with them. Mr does prefer smaller dogs. Over the years I have owned 2 Dachshunds and a Sheltie Mix who was deaf.

“I am so happy I found this family that truly lives Gizzy. I went on my first three day trip away from Gizzy, and Shannon and family took her in. It was perfect. So grateful for this family.”
“I had a last minute trip to Grand Rapids for work and spent time looking for the perfect fit to watch my 7 mo old puppy during the day. Once I came across Anne’s profile, I’d hoped for a good experience and let me tell you, Anne and her family were absolutely amazing! They were super attentive to my pup — taking him for walks, allowing him to play with their animals, and maintaining structure for him by encouraging rest time, and correcting his behavior. Every time I came to pick him up, he was so sad to leave and he was super excited to be back at their house each time I dropped him off! I can’t sing their praises enough, it means the world to me that they helped me in a pinch and that they did an exceptional job! Any time I return to the area, Anne will be my go-to everytime!”
“We were in town for a family reunion and needed to have Beignet & Brie cared for. So fortunate to have Terry care for our babies. They loved being there. They were happy and content and felt right at home with him immediately. Such a warm and welcoming environment. Thank you Terry!”
“I was visiting from out of state and only had a couple of days of notice but they were able to help. My 100lb Labrador was happier about going each day. I received regular photo and video updates of DJ socializing with other dogs and children. It appeared she had plenty to do and was definitely sleepy after. The whole family is very nice. Thank you!”
“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 :)”

In addition, I love them! :) I take care of elderly for a living, thrive in helping others and that extends to pups and kitties! I am typically unavailable during first shift hours Tuesday-Friday.

I have great attention to detail and care for pets in a timely manner, feeding and walking consistently according to their normal schedule to avoid disrupting their routine.

About: Hi! I'm Sami, and I am THRILLED to meet your loved one. ME AS A SITTER: My number one priority while caring for your loved one is their comfort. I believe having patience and allowing your pet to make the first move is important when first establishing a routine or any sort of bond. Anything you or your loved one needs for our time together, I'm there for it all! I have always had a passion for animals and find it an absolute blessing to spend time with any and all. WHAT I CAN DO: I am comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels. This includes pets that need medication, special dietary restrictions, or even pets that don't like to be too close but just need a little company- I'm just happy to meet your pet no matter what they need! MY PET BACKGROUND: I have experience housesitting with dogs/cats for up to a week. In this time, I maintained the house, watered plants, fed both cats and dogs, took care of trash and mail, etc. My family has had up to 8 dogs at once, ranging from puppy to senior. Now, we currently have 3 dogs and even a pet rabbit. I found a passion for training pets/encouraging good behavior, which led me to teach my pup tricks like roll over, bang bang, dance, etc., and we both loved every minute! We also took in a stray feral cat (was stuck in a car hood, long story), and for the past few months I have successfully worked hard to make a connection and bond with her! I do also help care for the cat in my home in Indiana. I have given pets medication many times, including wound care, vet visits, and special feeding instructions. I currently work part-time at a restaurant, with my shift typically starting at 3pm. My schedule does tend to shift around, but on days I do work, I am flexible with when I can watch your loved one and am willing to visit as much as possible before and after work. However, when I'm not working, I am more than happy to spend as much time with your pet as possible/wanted. While in your home, I will be around your pet 24/7, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I love playing with pets but can also enforce rules and regulations set up for your pet with ease. I can handle crating, leashing, feeding, picking up messes, and more. If housesitting, I am happy to assist in pickup and general house upkeep, including trash night, collecting mail, dusting, etc.
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life, with hands-on experience supporting pets through all life stages and needs. Whether your pet requires medication management, specialized diet adherence, mobility assistance, or extra patience due to age or disability, I approach each animal as an individual deserving attentive, compassionate care. I don’t just follow instructions, I notice subtle changes in behavior, anticipate needs, and communicate proactively with owners so you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I am currently working part time as a painter, part time with Rover, and volunteering for Harbor Humane, but worry not. I can make my schedule completely open for any pet care needs. I will rarely be unavailable. I prioritize your pet’s routine and comfort above all. Whether that means leash walks through your neighborhood, supervised backyard play in their familiar space, or respecting crating schedules you’ve established, I adapt to what works for your pet, not what’s easiest for me. I ensure fresh water is always available, meals are served on time, and any special instructions (door security, alarm codes, plant watering) are followed exactly. Beyond the basics, I make time for real connection like belly rubs, play sessions, or just calm companionship for anxious pets. You’ll come home to a pet who felt cared for, not just looked after.
“Samantha is awesome with my 18-month-old Boxer, Sophie. Sophie warmed up to Samantha and her children immediately and had a great time on their walks! Samantha was prompt, professional, and trustworthy. I will definitely be asking her to help out with Sophie again!”
About: My first job at 12 was dog walking/sitting but I have been a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with dogs and adopted my cat about 8 years ago. I have cared for both young and elderly dogs/cats as well as those with special needs and medical conditions. I am currently a stay at home mom with my five year old son. My availability is very open especially going into the summer months. Although I may not be able to do overnight stays at this time, I can do later evenings and earlier mornings. I do have a fenced in backyard that I can accommodate your pup with! I also have a dog in my home who is very friendly and would love play if you allow it. If not I will keep them separate. I can take your dog out to a local trail or walk them in your neighborhood. With cats I would be vigilant in keeping them away from open doors unless allowed. I know they love to explore small spaces and I take extra precautions to keep my girl safe! I love getting to know all the unique personalities of different cats, I love a good cuddle as well as some fun playtime. I have a special place in my heart for senior kitties.

About: Hi! I’m Eric. I work full time in child welfare, and in my free time, I care for dogs because I truly enjoy it. Pets deserve the same level of attention, trust, and consistency as people do, and that’s the standard I bring to every visit. I’ve lived with and cared for dogs most of my life. My rescue dog, Avery, was with me for 10 wonderful years. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether they’re hyper, laid back, anxious, or affectionate, I know how to read their behavior and respond with calm, confident care. When I care for your pets, I focus on providing a safe, relaxed, and fun experience. Whether your dog needs structure, play, or just company, I’ll be present and tuned in. I’m not rushing through visits. I treat your home and your pets with the same care I would give my own. You’ll receive clear communication, photo updates, and peace of mind while you’re away. I’m also a photographer, so if you’d like portraits of your pet while you’re gone, feel free to ask. I’m usually available on weekends and take a limited number of clients so I can give each pet my full attention. If you’re looking for dependable, thoughtful care from someone who takes this seriously, reach out any time. I work full time so Mondays to Thursdays I’m available after 5pm. Friday-Sunday I’m much more flexible to care for your pet! Feel free to ask questions. I specialize in drop-in visits and walks for pet parents who want true peace of mind — the kind that comes from knowing their dog or cat is being cared for with attention, patience, and professionalism. Whether you’re at work, away for the weekend, or just need extra help, I make sure your pets feel safe and loved in their own home. I provide calm, respectful care and always send detailed updates so you’re never left wondering how it went. I try to care for your pets as close to you want me to. I can take notes on how you’d want me to care for your pet or you can give me printed instructions.

“Frances and family were just awesome! We have a 4 month old puppy that stayed with them for 5 days while we traveled and he had a great time.

He will be back to visit her whenever we travel. Thank you Frances!!!! (And fam!)”
“This was our first time using Rover and Katherine was amazingly patient when answering all my questions about what we should expect. Unfortunately during the stay, one of our dogs had a difficult time adjusting, but Katherine did everything she could to ease her anxiety and make her comfortable. By the end of the weekend, there was quite a bit of improvement for Jessie. They sent pics of them and the dogs having fun which I thoroughly enjoyed.”
“I had to leave town last weekend and decided to see what boarding my dog Ding with somebody from Rover might be like. I hit the jackpot when I decided to reach out to Roman and Suzanne. Right from the get go they were extremely responsive and had the answers to all my questions. And so friendly! We did a quick meet and greet at their home and I instantly knew I’d be trusting my guy with them. Just really wonderful people and they clearly love the animals they take care of. And they sure took care of mine! I got lots of pictures and updates over the weekend, and Ding looked so happy in all of them. He really hit it off with their dog Sonic! The weekend flew by and after an easy pickup (they really made everything so easy!) Ding and I were back home. He totally crashed out after a fun weekend with his new friends. Cant recommend Roman and Suzanne and family enough! I’ll definitely be reaching out to for another upcoming weekend trip :) Thanks so much!”
“Sylvia was great! It was my first time using rover and she made me feel very comfortable with leaving my dog! She sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated! She was very respectful and attentive to the dog. Would use her again!!”
“Diana was the best dog sitter ever!! She sent us a bunch of pictures and wrote sweet updates on what Ellie was up to for my son to read. She was so thoughtful, took Ellie on a ton of walks and loved her like she was her own dog. I highly recommended Diana and will use her again!”
“Nicole did such an amazing job with our girls. Communication was great. She send tons of pictures to help ease my mind. Her whole family was so good with the girls. I will def use her gain when needed. My girls have a new retreat to go too. They loved it and her family.”
“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.”
“Anne and her family were so kind to watch my pup Dune last minute after our original dog sitting plans for vacation fell through. We did an initial met/greet to ensure our dogs got along and Dune loved playing with the other pups. Communication with daily updates and photos was awesome! Kenneling overnight. We were so grateful for your flexiblity and help! Thank you all for taking such great care of my boy :)”
“My husband and I had to go out of town for a quick sat-sun trip and Kristina made us feel so comfortable leaving Mabel with her. She shared several photos throughout the weekend and we appreciated the one on one care she gave to our puppy. We hope to book with her again in the future! 😄”
“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.”
About: I have taken care of animas my whole life. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and cats. Comfortable giving medications if they are needed. I am home all day Thursday through Sunday. The days that I do work, there is still time set aside for each pet after I arrive home. During the warmer weather, we typically spend lots of time outside. I have a fenced in yard. I do own 3 medium-large sized dogs that are great with other dogs. I do also have a cat and a toddler. I make sure that the toddler is never left alone with the animals. If I am doing drop by visits for pets, your home will be treated with respect and your pet will be taken care of appropriately.
“Micheal & his family were wonderful to Ripley! He was kept busy and given lots of love; Ripley’s Velcro personality was satisfied. Will be using Michael again - great care giver.”
“Brittany was so amazing with our dog! She sent lots of pictures (which we really appreciated) and was very communicative over text with updates! Our dog had a blast and we would 100% leave our dog with Brittany again!”
“Derek did a great job taking care of my dogs while I was out of town. He kept me updated with a couple of pictures, which was really appreciated, and I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups”
