“Vinnie is so well cared for when he visits Terry and his wife! Vinnie gets lots of interactions with other dogs, has a beautiful fenced in area to run around and lots of cozy places to nap! This allows our family to have a relaxing vacation and we enjoy the daily pictures from Terry! Thank you again! The Moliterno Family❤️”
“Beth provides a welcoming home and we know our dog was well cared for on our trip. She was great with communication and flexible with drop off and pick up. We would not hesitate to book Beth again. Highly recommend!”
“Pamela was so sweet from the start and I had a good feeling about leaving my pup with her. She seemed genuinely excited to get to know him, give her sweet dog some friend time, and provide as many cuddles as he needed. That impression was absolutely correct if not underestimating how much she cares and enjoys taking care of pups. I have never used a pet service to take care of Deacon and she completely settled my concerns and exceeded my expectations. I would love to hire her again!”
“Christina and her family took such great care of Oliver during our recent extended family vacation. Christina was an excellent communicator and was very flexible with adjusting Oliver’s care instructions when needed during his stay. We are so grateful that Oliver had a place to stay that gave him the same TLC he receives from us at home.”
“Kailee took excellent care of Milo. He was loved and well cared for. She sent frequent photo updates during his stay and was fast to respond to any questions before and during his stay and was helpful and accommodating.”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing with our dog! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. He had such a wonderful stay, made so many new friends, and came home happy and well cared for. Elizabeth kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and comfort while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared for him and treated him like one of her own. We never had to worry for a second knowing he was with her. We couldn’t recommend Elizabeth more and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Loretta is amazing. Max had more than a safe stay under Loretta’s care, he was treated as a family member. Max had all attention and care he would ever image. The only problem was he liked Loretta so much that he didn’t want came back home when I shown up to pick him up. lol… thank you Loretta and family.”
“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.”
“I rarely ever leave Molly even with a good friend. She made herself at home with Frances and family. She ate just fine and was well cared for. I will definitely rebook specifically with Frances the next time I need a pet sitter!”
“Sam was great! Larry had an awesome time hanging out with them. They were very professional, responsive and caring. They treated Larry like he was one of their own. When future needs arise we will for sure contact Sam again.”
“Jenn is incredible! Her and her family's love for animals really shines through. She is very responsive to messages and sent updates and pictures during my dog's 3 days stay with her. I will absolutely book with Jenn the next time my family is out of town. 10/10... thanks Jenn!!!”
“We are very pleased to find Julie for our boarding needs. She received plenty of exercise during her stay being able to play with other pets. Already scheduled for next trip😊”
About: I have been a dog owner since I was a little girl with two little miniature poodles. Have had a love for animals and caring for them ever since. I have always wanted to work with animals but have not had the money for schooling. Attended a Vet Tech. class at the Allegan Tech. center for 2 years and absolutely enjoyed every minute of working with all types of animals including helping with doggie daycare, walking, bathing, and just plain having fun with them. I love to help out family and friends in caring for their loved animals while they are away. :) We have a house with a fenced in yard for room to safely run around. Our little dog named Rupert is older but just minds his own business lol. We recently have lost a German short haired pointer named Arthur at a young age of 5. We are still heart broken. While waiting to find another new dog to love as our own we would be happy to love and care for your dog!

“Our 4 cats love Tasha! She is reliable and very easy to communicate with — she even came to meet the cats beforehand so that we would all feel comfortable. I would absolutely use her again. Tasha is also very courteous, cleaning up stray litter on the floors so that we would come home to a clean house.”
“Aracely is the ultimate cat whisperer! This was our third time having her look after our home, and even for just a short visit, she continues to impress. Leaving a big pet family behind can be stressful, but knowing our six cats are in such great hands gives us total peace of mind. Aracely handles everyone’s individual quirks and needs like an absolute pro, ensuring they are not only well-fed but genuinely comfortable and content for the rest of the day. Every time we get back, everything is perfect and it’s clear our crew is happy and at ease. Huge shoutout to Aracely for taking such amazing care of them—we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“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!”
“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!”

“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Bob was able to pick up Edison from my hotel 20 minutes away from his house and watched him all day while I was working. What I got in return was a very happy and tired dog! Bob sent me updates throughout the day to let me know how Edison was doing, and with a large fenced-in yard my dog was able to roam free with the other dogs. I will definitely use Bob again if I'm staying in the Kalamazoo area and I would recommend you do too!”

About: I’ve been helping my parents raise dogs since I was around 10 years old, our first dog being a collie we rescued as she wasn’t being treated well with her initial owners. We took her in and got her cleaned up, took care of the fleas she had, found her a good diet, and gave her lots of love and attention through it all. We took her on camping trips, out on the water to go fishing, out on walks and to get pup cups at the ice cream shop, her favorite place being my granny’s house. Alongside her, we raised three more dogs when they were puppies, each one two years apart. 2 of them are Australian shepherds, and one is a husky, all girls and grew to form their own little pack, respecting each other’s place and playing happily in a big fenced in back yard. We supported our collie till her last breath as she was elderly, and even as she was so old, she always had her usual, laid back and quirky personality. Even now, I continue to help my parents take care of our dogs, as they’re not just pets, they’re our family, our fur babies, even in they’re old stages of life, they’ll always be our little babies in our hearts. So rest assured, your fur baby will be 110% safe and cared for with me, maybe even a bit spoiled! I’m currently looking into part time or less demanding full time jobs, and I’ll be actively looking until I land one, until then, I should be mostly free, and I’ll definitely keep my schedule updated as life moves forward and changes. As of now, I have appointments on Wednesday, I try to keep them consistent each week, but they’re subject to change due to scheduling. With specific instructions written on paper, I have no issues accommodating to your pet’s needs in your home! I’m respectful during visits in others homes, treating them as my own and keeping spaces clean and tidy. With proper cleaning tools, I can clean up accidents on hard surfaces or rugs, I may need a demonstration on how to use a specific cleaning machine or vacuum depending on how complicated it is. I’m not allergic to any animal, or any breed, so pet hair doesn’t bother me! If need be, I am able to administer oral medications with proper instruction and demonstration. On walks I make sure to keep dogs close to me and away from the road, I carry doggy bags, and on hot days, I’ll carry a little folded up bowl that I can poor water in, so your baby stays hydrated!
About: II’ve been pet sitting for my sister for the past two years, including full week stays while her family travels. During that time, I’ve cared for her two cats – feeding, grooming, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them plenty of love and playtime. Cats are easygoing, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I also have my own dog and cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels. I take my dog on regular walks and love bringing her to the park. Sometimes my cat even joins the adventure! My goal is simple: keep your pet happy, safe, and well cared for. I work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday 3–6 pm. Outside those hours I’m available for walks, play, feeding, and maintaining your pet’s schedule; I’ll update you if anything changes. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and at home whether I’m caring for them in my space or in theirs. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddle time—so they feel relaxed and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, since every pet is different. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and always make sure doors, gates, and supplies are secure. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with respect and make sure everything stays neat while giving their pets plenty of love and attention. I also like to send updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are happy, safe, and having fun.

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have owned several dogs with very different personalities and needs. From energetic Australian Shepherds who thrive on activity and mental stimulation to my calm and gentle Golden Retriever, I’ve gained valuable experience understanding how to care for dogs of all temperaments. I enjoy staying active and love spending time outdoors, whether that’s going for long walks, runs, or playing fetch at the park. At the same time, I understand that every dog is different, and I’m just as happy to spend quiet time relaxing, cuddling, and providing companionship for pets who prefer a slower pace. I take pride in being responsible, dependable, and respectful of both pets and their owners. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to meet your pet and provide them with the care, attention, and affection they deserve! 🐾❤️ I currently have a work schedule that is all over the place, I am free anytime after 3:30pm Monday-Thursday. I have horseback riding on Friday and on weekends. I’d love to fit your pets needs into my schedule! When caring for pets in their own homes, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise requirements, and any household rules. I understand that pets can feel more comfortable in their familiar environment, so I focus on providing plenty of attention, companionship, and reassurance while their owners are away. I also treat every home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. During walks, your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I pay close attention to their energy level, behavior, and surroundings to ensure they have an enjoyable experience. Whether your dog prefers a brisk walk, a run, or a slower-paced stroll with lots of sniffing opportunities, I adapt to their individual needs. I always use safe handling practices, stay alert to potential hazards, and make sure your pet gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. My goal is for every pet to return home happy, healthy, and tired from a fun outing!

About: I have watched a multitude of animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, lizards and even alpacas. I love training dogs and would gladly help train puppies and even older dogs. I am also experienced in giving medication to dogs and cats. I am on call for a doggy daycare so my schedule is completely free to pet sit any day other then Tuesdays from 3 until 6. Unfortunately I can't watch pets in my own home because I personally have a few pets of my own. I walk my dog every other day and bring him to the dog park on the opposite days and I will gladly walk your dogs every day or bring them to the dog park to play. I also have a cat of my own. My cat has a very sensitive stomach so I am used to cleaning messes and giving medication.
About: I bring over 15 years of experience as a puppy trainer for Canine Companions for Independence, where I helped raise and train service dog puppies with structure, consistency, and patience. That experience gave me a deep understanding of obedience training, behavior development, socialization, and building trust with dogs of all temperaments. I’ve also had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. I’m comfortable reinforcing training, working with puppies, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I understand routines, communication, and the importance of making pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away. What sets me apart is reliability, experience, and treating every pet like family — with structured care, attention to detail, and consistent updates for peace of mind. As a stay-at-home dad, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. During the school year, I have flexibility and availability throughout the day for drop-ins, walks, feedings, and check-ins. Summers are even more open, allowing me to offer consistent, reliable care with a flexible schedule. Because I’m home-based, I’m able to prioritize punctuality, routine, and communication. Pet care isn’t something I try to squeeze in — it’s something I can intentionally plan my day around to ensure your pets receive dependable, attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide exercise or playtime based on their needs, clean litter boxes or pick up waste promptly, and reinforce any household rules or training already in place. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on consistency, patience, and attentiveness. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. With over 15 years of experience training puppies for Canine Companions for Independence and a lifetime of owning both dogs and cats, I’m highly observant of behavior and body language, ensuring your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Sue was so great! She took excellent care of our Greyhound JJ and was so quick to fill in for our normal sitter on such short notice (even over the holiday season)!

About: I provide dependable, attentive, and loving care so pets can feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. As a dog owner myself with 3 dogs of my own, I understand the level of patience, consistency, and attention that goes into properly caring for pets every day. I know that every dog has a different personality and energy level. Some dogs love staying active with walks and playtime, while others are happiest relaxing and getting cuddles and companionship. I make it a priority to adjust my care to each dog’s individual needs and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I also have experience giving medications to dogs through caring for my own pets, and I’m comfortable following specific care instructions when needed. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve also pet sat for family members and made sure their pets received plenty of attention, affection, and consistent care while they were away. What sets me apart is the level of patience, communication, and genuine care I provide. I treat every pet like family and always want owners to feel confident knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I’m a stay-at-home mom and already care for 3 dogs of my own each day. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, care, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m currently available Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 8:00 AM–4:00 PM, as well as Saturdays and Sundays with open availability. I enjoy being able to give pets the time, patience, and attention they need while their owners are away and do my best to keep their routines as normal and stress-free as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make it a priority to keep their environment calm, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, crate routines, and any other specific care needs to help pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that trust is extremely important when someone is allowing me into their home and trusting me with their pets. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and make sure pets are supervised, safe, and getting plenty of attention and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away.

“Beth provides a welcoming home and we know our dog was well cared for on our trip. She was great with communication and flexible with drop off and pick up. We would not hesitate to book Beth again. Highly recommend!”
“Pamela was so sweet from the start and I had a good feeling about leaving my pup with her. She seemed genuinely excited to get to know him, give her sweet dog some friend time, and provide as many cuddles as he needed. That impression was absolutely correct if not underestimating how much she cares and enjoys taking care of pups. I have never used a pet service to take care of Deacon and she completely settled my concerns and exceeded my expectations. I would love to hire her again!”
“Christina and her family took such great care of Oliver during our recent extended family vacation. Christina was an excellent communicator and was very flexible with adjusting Oliver’s care instructions when needed during his stay. We are so grateful that Oliver had a place to stay that gave him the same TLC he receives from us at home.”
“Kailee took excellent care of Milo. He was loved and well cared for. She sent frequent photo updates during his stay and was fast to respond to any questions before and during his stay and was helpful and accommodating.”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing with our dog! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. He had such a wonderful stay, made so many new friends, and came home happy and well cared for. Elizabeth kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and comfort while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared for him and treated him like one of her own. We never had to worry for a second knowing he was with her. We couldn’t recommend Elizabeth more and will definitely be booking 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.”
“I rarely ever leave Molly even with a good friend. She made herself at home with Frances and family. She ate just fine and was well cared for. I will definitely rebook specifically with Frances the next time I need a pet sitter!”
“Sam was great! Larry had an awesome time hanging out with them. They were very professional, responsive and caring. They treated Larry like he was one of their own. When future needs arise we will for sure contact Sam again.”
“We are very pleased to find Julie for our boarding needs. She received plenty of exercise during her stay being able to play with other pets. Already scheduled for next trip😊”
About: I have been a dog owner since I was a little girl with two little miniature poodles. Have had a love for animals and caring for them ever since. I have always wanted to work with animals but have not had the money for schooling. Attended a Vet Tech. class at the Allegan Tech. center for 2 years and absolutely enjoyed every minute of working with all types of animals including helping with doggie daycare, walking, bathing, and just plain having fun with them. I love to help out family and friends in caring for their loved animals while they are away. :) We have a house with a fenced in yard for room to safely run around. Our little dog named Rupert is older but just minds his own business lol. We recently have lost a German short haired pointer named Arthur at a young age of 5. We are still heart broken. While waiting to find another new dog to love as our own we would be happy to love and care for your dog!
“Natasha is a pro dog sitter. Two thumbs up. My dogs had a string of not ideal behavior during my trip, and Natasha was so gracious and kind in telling me and dealing with them.”
“Katy took good care of our dog, Shadow. She sent us pictures and gave us daily updates. She has a nice fenced in backyard and two sweet dogs to play with. We would definitely leave Shadow with her again!”
“Jayme and family took great care of our dog again. He came home happy, unanxious / relaxed, and healthy. :) We are so pleased with Jayme and can travel unconcerned knowing we’ll come home to well taken care of dog. :)”
