Personalized care for your dog or cat - Morley
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Morley
“Megan was the best! She took excellent care of our boy, gave him plenty of exercise and snuggles, and even sent him home with a puppy report card ❤️ We will definitely use Megan again next time we're in the area and need a sitter!”
“Sabrina is a true dog lover, she took the time to learn and understand our pup’s traits and personalities and adjusted their care accordingly. Saylor is 10 and Lake is 2. They go for walks, play time in the yard and have dog treat hunts to just name a few activities. We receive texts with pictures and videos throughout the day. Saylor and Lake love staying with Sabrina and we highly recommend her. Kathy & Joe”
About: I’m 23 years old and I have 2 dogs. One is 7 and the other is 1 year old. I got them both when they were puppies so I’ve had dog experience for 7 years now. I like to take them for walks daily if weather is permitting as well as play fetch. I am a CNA but I do home care so my schedule is flexible, I can work mornings or nights. I love doing Outdoor activities. I have a nice fenced in back yard for them to run around and get their energy out. So far I’ve taught my dogs how to sit, shake, dance, and high five with both paws. I want to continue to teach them more tricks. I’m sure my dogs are looking forward to having more buddies to play with!
“Always a great experience leaving our Golden with Emily! Great communication, updates and pictures throughout our trips. They treat him like one of the family. Couldn't ask for a better experience. Happy to have found someone close to home to make our travels a little less stressful.”
“Christina did a wonderful job with our dog! We are very happy, and would definitely hire her again! Our dog is 13 years old and has almost never spent a night away from home, so we were a little nervous. He stayed with Christina for 5 days and she cared for him so well! The daily texts from her were so nice and reassuring! She made it very easy for us and our dog! He must have been comfortable with Christina because he came home like he'd never left!”
“Matt maintained great communication with us and our dog seemed to be very happy playing with Matt’s dog and going for walks. We’d definitely ask Matt to watch our dog again!”
“Rajah was such a sweetheart! This was my baby boy Tucker first time being away from us in 9 years, and he enjoyed her! He warmed up which i was very happy for since he’s very stand offish.. Rajah made sure to update us and also send pictures and just made us feel very secured! If I could’ve give more stars i would!”
“This was the first time we used Rachel. She asked if there was anything we were working on with the dogs so she could continue their training while we were gone, what their normal routine was, etc. The pictures she sent showed our dogs running, playing, on their laps, even on their bed (which is where they are at home most of the time). We felt very comfortable with the care they received with Rachel. We will definitely use her again!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. As a devoted dog owner of three, caring for animals is an integral part of my daily life, and I extend that same level of attention, responsibility, and affection to every pet in my care. I am fully comfortable handling all aspects of daily dog care, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, enrichment, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to be home for most of the day throughout the week, as well as on weekends, providing consistent supervision and companionship. I also have the option to work from home when additional attention or frequent potty breaks are needed. In my household, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment. Dogs always have access to fresh water and are fed twice daily (or as often as your individual dog requires). Potty breaks are provided frequently based on each dog’s individual needs and cues; however, I am more than willing to follow a more structured schedule if that is what your pet is accustomed to. I am also experienced with administering medications, including monthly heartworm and flea prevention, and take great care to ensure all medications are given accurately and on time. While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I share my home with three friendly dogs, each with their own unique personality: an energetic and affectionate Boston Terrier, a more reserved but sweet Boston Terrier, and a laid-back Chihuahua who enjoys staying close by. They are well-socialized and can provide companionship for visiting dogs when appropriate. My home is set up to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I have three individual crates with comfortable bedding available for dogs who are crate trained or require confinement, and you are always welcome to bring your own crate if it helps your pet feel more at home. While my own dogs enjoy free access to the house and are allowed on the furniture, I am happy to follow your pet’s established rules and routines, including using gates or designated areas if needed. Although my yard is not physically fenced, safety is always a top priority. My dogs are never outdoors unsupervised, and the same standard of care applies to every pet I watch. I have a large, open yard that provides plenty of space for exercise, and I regularly walk dogs on a leash around the property and in the neighborhood. If your dog is most comfortable on a leash or tie-out while outside, I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences. All of my dogs are current on their vaccinations and receive routine veterinary care. I pay close attention to changes in their health, behavior, and overall well-being, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat both your home and your companion with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training, household rules, and daily routines to ensure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you are away. At bedtime, I am happy to follow whatever sleeping arrangement your pet is accustomed to, whether that means sleeping in a crate, on their own bed, or sharing a room with me. My goal is to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable. My boyfriend and I live together, but I will be your pet’s primary caregiver. He may occasionally assist if I need to step away briefly, providing additional supervision and support, but all communication and primary care responsibilities remain with me. For added peace of mind, I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive, compassionate, and responsible care throughout their stay.
“Boomer had a great time. Nice big yard to play in and got lots of attention! I got daily updates and pictures of Boomer playing and having fun. We will definitely be visiting again!”
“Moose is always excited to go to Dakota and Matthew's and I know he'll be well taken care of whenever we have to go out of town. Thanks again for being such great pup sitters!”
“We will always choose Caroline! She takes such good care of our baby and always keeps us updated with pictures and what our dog is doing while there! If you need anyone to watch your beloved animal, Caroline is your girl!”
“Tabitha was great with Addie! She and her family made a gentle introduction to their other dog, and they had endless running and playing in their fenced yard! She also sent a bunch of photos and a video. We were grateful that our dog had such a fun filled day while we were away!”
“Another great sitting for my cat, Whiskey. Madison treats him like one of the family. She communicates regular updates with pictures and is always extremely professional. Would highly recommend.”

I am an experienced animal care volunteer through shelters and foster organizations. I am able to administer both oral and topical medications. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your cat while you're away and always ensure to take photos/videos for updates and give them all the attention they wish for.
“Did excellent going out of the way through out the day to check on the cats for a few hours! Kept up with communication and sent many pictures and videos that we really appreciated!”
About: I have 6 years of professional experience in animal care, body language, and handling. My dedication, knowledge, and love that goes into caring for pets are some of my strongest attributes. I care for others pets how I would care for my own! I am “reactive” dog friendly and have the ability to give medications or insulin injections as well, due to my extensive experience. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to make visits to your home to care for your pets. Whether it be a single drop in visit, or multiple. When caring for others pets, supervision is paramount for safety. Your pet’s time with me will be fully supervised during my visits to your home.
About: I have always loved animals and understand that every cat has their own unique personality, comfort level, and routine. Through my experience volunteering at the animal shelter in Big Rapids, I learned the importance of patience, gentle care, and creating a calm environment. I’m comfortable helping with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I truly respect a cat’s boundaries and personality, whether they are playful and social or shy and independent. I pay close attention to routines and details so your cat can feel as relaxed and stress-free as possible. My goal is always to provide dependable, loving care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their cat is in good hands.
About: I adore dogs and exercise. I will take dogs out on long and enjoyable walks and give them another reason to love life!! I’ll give so much attention and exercise care to your dogs! I am working a full time job from home. I am free to walk dogs in the evenings after work, weekends, and maybe walks on my lunch breaks during the middle of the day. I have a small little 2 year old dog at home that has taught me the love and attention necessary to raise a happy dog and how to show them lots of love. I have had many dogs as I grew up as well so I know how to take care of a dog that I didn’t have a direct hand in training. I love all dogs and want them to non stop tail wag their way through life.
About: Hi! I’m Morgan, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to a 10-year-old son and a 3-year-old daughter, along with our two dogs, Nike and Max. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I truly couldn’t imagine a home without them. Both of my children have grown up around dogs and have learned to be gentle, respectful, and loving with animals. Creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care is something I take seriously. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so my goal is to make you feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re one of my own. Every pet deserves plenty of love, attention, exercise, and individualized care, and I’ll make sure they receive exactly that. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member and provide them with the love and care they deserve! Before We Meet To help me give your pet the best possible experience, please let me know about: * Any medical conditions or medications * Food allergies or dietary restrictions * Favorite toys, treats, or activities * Triggers, fears, or behavioral concerns * Your pet’s daily routine and any special instructions * Anything else you’d like me to know to help your pet feel happy, safe, and comfortable I look forward to meeting you and your best friend!
About: I welcome dogs of any breed into my home. I’ll treat your dog like it’s one of my own. They will also have dogs to play with while here! I’m available on weekends! Friday nights after 5:30pm until Sunday night around 9pm. In the summer I’ll be available week nights and if my schedule changes I will update everyone! (I do take dogs on some holidays! Message for details!) I have a no fenced yard, but I live in a rural area with little traffic down a lake road. My yard is over an acre and butts up to a field with only one neighbor who’s rarely home. My dogs have a blast running around outside! I also usually allow my dogs to roam the house while we are home and crate them while we leave.
About: I have two dogs of my own, and I’ve worked hard with dog training classes! I love dogs and spending time with them. I’ll treat your dog like they are my own! I’ve helped friends and family with their dogs, and they continue to ask and rely on me. I work full-time, but I always make time in my daily schedule with my dogs. I can fit your dog in and check as much as you request! My dogs are well loved! They have plenty of toys, taken for fetch every night, and walked multiple times a day. They are like our children to us. We spend all our time with them and love them to death. Anyone who knows me, can vouch for our sweet girls!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Morley
About: I have pet care experience of all kinds including breeding and stud service, shots and weening. We have a large open floor plan with a 4 stall garage to roam. Price will vary if dog is not fully potty trained or in heat during their stay. I am a stay at home entrepreneur allowing me to be present with pets while they are here. I am also a groomer! My husband and I believe this is a great opportunity to be able to love on all kinds of different breeds as our own and a fun way to take care of some of the most precious pets. That being said i will only accept crate trained dogs(for their safety) they need to be able to be crated safely while we are away for a short or longer amount of time. There are no cats or dogs here (unless confirmed by you that its okay to board at the same time as another families pet) so you won't have to worry about your pet getting along with anyone else while they are here. Be sure to check your collars and leashes of any wear and tears before dropping them off💛 tell me about your dog and we will see if it will be a good fit🧡
“Christina is definitely a pet lover who cares! Our dog felt right at home the moment we set foot in her home and had a wonderful time. We will certainly use Christina whenever we are in the Stanwood area!”
“Ashley is a warm and caring sitter and was great with my shy and fearful girl!! She understood that some dogs just need a place to feel comfortable and she provided that. That being said her farm would be like doggie heaven to dogs that want a fun day! I would definitely use her again and don’t hesitate to recommend her to others!!”
“Reyna was wonderful! My 15 month old English Setter had a great day playing with the kids and a couple of other dogs. Reyna sent tons of photos throughout the day and was so easy to communicate with. Norman was clearly in good hands. We’ll definitely be back!”
About: I have many years experience with cats, even wild bred cats. But due to having two cats myself, I am not taking any cats for boarding. Maybe interested in stopping by and feeding and cleaning litters I am currently working but my husband is home 100% of the time and kids are also here that love playing with animals, bathing them, and taking them for walks. We have a fenced in backyard where we have a dog ourselves that is a mixed breed dog that has been introduced to many other animals and has never been anything but excited to have a pail.
About: I’ve always had a passion for dogs of all kinds! I have been around dogs my whole life between family and friends! Our house is open to any breed big or small! I am a stay at home mom with lots of free time to walk and play with your fur babies! I know your dogs are family and only want the best care for them while you are away! We have a spacious house with comfy couches for your fur babies! Our yard isn’t fenced but we live very close to the park and love walks! We have a 3 year old dog that loves to play. Our little boy loves kisses from doggies and pets them very nicely. We allow dogs to roam freely in the house unless told otherwise.

“Maggie and I love when Celeste watches her! Celeste gives all of her attention to her clients and provides photos and updates throughout the day if needed. I will definitely be rebooking.”

“Paige and Matt are an awesome team. My dog suffers from extreme anxiety separation and is afraid of new people she meets. . In just 2 visits she has started to warm up to them. I am so grateful I found you two. Thank you 😊”
“This is our first time using daycare, and Emily made the whole experience so comforting. She was welcoming, kind, and truly wonderful with our dog. We felt completely at ease and confident that our dog was in good care!”
About: We are a Christian home with a very active family! I’m thankful that my job allows me to spend most of my days at home with the kids and dog. Our dog is very friendly and loves new visitors. She’s smaller, but loves the big dogs best! My daughter on the other hand loves the smaller dogs. We will happily welcome them all! My dog and I frequent the dog parks, hiking trails, beaches and walks through the town. I used to be a former 4-H member with my childhood dog, so I’ve got many years experience with training and showing. My love and patience is huge for dogs. I prefer a dog to be kennel trained, and come with a crate but an open to discussion. I am very flexible and I will most certainly work with you with whatever you may need. Look forwarding to meeting you and your pup. We are home the majority of our days, tending to our hobby farm, and enjoying time outside. We have a very flexible schedule, and are willing to accommodate. The dogs are always fed separate, and separated when I leave! Pets are allowed on beds, and couches. They will get lots of time outside with us.
“I mean, wow! This has been the most detailed and very communicative doggie day care that we've ever experienced. We're traveling across the country so if we come back through this area, we'll be sure to book another stay with Katelyn. We wish she was available back home in Washington state.”
About: I have dogsat for friends and family since I was a kid, I worked at a doggy daycare (Paws In The City) in highschool. My family has raised 2 litters of golden retrievers, so I am familiar with how to train and housebreak puppies from a young age. I live with 2 dogs and 3 cats, all with very different energy levels and personalities, I will adjust to your pet's unique needs and routines! I am a student at CMU, so during the semester I will be gone during the morning for classes. I stop by to check on pets during lunch time, and then head back to campus. On weekends I can stay with them the whole day, taking dogs on a hike if the weather is nice, or staying in and playing on my study breaks. I have a pretty open schedule, so I will have a lot of time to spare for pet care. I am willing to stay with your pets overnight if you need, or just stop by regularly throughout the day. I will follow your instructions, and make sure your pets stay fed, safe, and happy while you are gone! I have a lot of hiking trails I want to explore, if you are comfortable with me taking your pup on a fieldtrip. If not, I am happy to walk in your neighborhood and stay closer to home.
“Caroline was awesome! She sent updates throughout the visit and sent cute pictures of Rondo! She took him for a walk and played with him throughout the day. He came home a tired and happy puppy :) I’ve already booked rondos next stay with Caroline.”
About: I spent 13 years caring for my own dog, Seven, and she was truly part of my family. That experience shaped how I care for every dog-patiently, attentively, and with a lot of love. I genuinely enjoy being outside, going on walks, and making sure dogs are active, happy, and not stuck inside all day. Your dog won’t just be “watched”- they’ll be cared for, played with, and treated like one of our own. I currently work from home and am home the majority of the day, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I do step out occasionally for short transportation trips and my boys’ sports activities, but I plan my schedule to ensure pets are never left alone for long periods. Your dog will have a consistent, safe, and attentive environment with lots of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide regular potty breaks every few hours, daily walks, and plenty of outdoor time. When I’m outside working on projects, dogs are welcome to be with me under supervision. Because we are on a busy road and the yard is not fully fenced, all dogs will be closely monitored outdoors. I will follow your preferences regarding leashing at all times, and I also have a secure 20-foot cable line available for safe outdoor time when appropriate. Fresh water is always available, both indoors and outside. I also currently have a calm, 12-year-old foster dog who enjoys light play and does well with other dogs. We’re located near a lake, and with your permission, I’m happy to include supervised swimming and extra outdoor activities for dogs who enjoy it. I will always tailor care to your dog’s individual needs to ensure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: Hi! I’m Melody, a huge animal lover and proud dog mom to two sweet huskies. Dogs are part of the family in my home, and I treat every pup I care for with the same love, patience, and respect as my own. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, structure, or reassurance, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood while you’re away. I’m very attentive to routines, behavior, and comfort, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know your fur baby is in great hands! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give dogs the attention they deserve. Your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I make sure they get regular exercise, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. Dogs stay in a calm, safe, and loving. I supervise closely, follow routines, and keep everything clean and comfortable so every dog can relax, feel secure, and enjoy their stay.
“Amy did a great job with my June Bug and I love the pictures and wrap up that I got. This was our first time working with Amy and I think we found our new caregiver for June Bug. I highly recommend and we will book with her again. Also, her little Mia is the sweetest girl ❤️.”

“Taylor was amazing! Yesterday was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about my pup being home alone... Taylor called me at work (per my request) so that I could go over how to get into my house, etc. and she calmed my nerves too :) when she got there, he had tore up his mattress pad in his kennel- she cleaned it up so that he couldn’t eat it. She then walked him, took pictures for me and played with him enough to tire him out for a bit. She was so good with him anc it was so appreciated! ❤️❤️”
About: I've had pets in my household since I was born, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. I also have animal shelter experience, and I've cared for extended familys' pets as well. I'm currently away at college, but I have two dogs of my own back home. I have some extra time outside of classes and a part time job and am looking to spend that extra time caring for someone's pets, as I miss my own. Depending on how your home is, I'm able to let your pets out for some time outside, give them some playtime, and can feed them if needed.
About: I grew up with labs my whole life so I’m very use to large dogs! The endless shedding doesn’t scare me away! I truly love all dog breeds though and I’m willing to open up to even the moody ones! I work full time 8:30-5:00 but I do have an hour lunch that I can make work for potty breaks and short walks! I can also stop by before and after work and I’m willing to stay during night weeknights too on occasion. I have an husband and two kids so I prefer to be home during week nights but with a notice in advance I can make it work. I am a bit OCD with my own pet care. My cat has an enclosure for his litter box with foam flooring for underneath the enclosure. I keep a broom, a shop vac and a swifter all just for his area. He has special prescription food and I keep his diet on a schedule. He gets lots of love daily and I plan provide the same care for your pets!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I genuinely love caring for dogs of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I previously volunteered at the animal shelter in Big Rapids, where I gained hands on experience walking dogs with different temperaments and caring for their daily needs. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to help dogs feel comfortable and safe in new environments. I also have my own 6-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd who is truly my best friend, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I treat every dog with the same love, care, and attention I would want for my own. What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, calm, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’m currently home in Michigan for the summer, which gives me a very flexible schedule and open availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats in their own home so they can stay in a familiar and stress-free environment. Whether your pet needs potty breaks throughout the day, feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to provide attentive and loving care. I understand how important routines are for pets, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, comfortable environment in every pet care situation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress and keep things familiar. I make sure pets are always supervised during visits, doors and gates are securely handled, and I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any specific care guidelines provided by the owner. I also respect each home by keeping it clean, organized, and exactly as I found it. For dogs, I ensure safe leash handling during walks, avoid unsafe interactions with unfamiliar animals, and always stay attentive to their behavior and needs. For cats, I create a calm environment by respecting their space and letting them come to me on their terms, while still providing affection, play, and care when they’re comfortable. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners by being reliable, detail-oriented, and attentive so you can feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have experience providing both overnight pet care and daily drop-in/walk visits for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and ages. I enjoy caring for animals and believe dogs thrive with consistent attention, daily exercise, and loving care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping pets company, I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work in a school, so I currently have weekends available and I will have summer available to provide daily walks in a few weeks. Safety and fulfilling needs is my number one priority when I have a pet in my care. I will ensure that walks or visits are safe for your pet and that its needs are being met.
“We love having Ava walk our lively Schnoodle. He needs his walk every day, and his humans are sometimes busy or not feeling well enough to take him. We really appreciate her! And it makes Kevin very happy!”
“Shawna. I can’t thank you enough for your energy, confidence and overall amazing personality! Thanks for helping me out in a bind, being flexible, and so understanding of my dear yet anxious pup. Appreciate you and would definitely hire again!”
“So communicative and took lots of pics! I was so nervous and new to this and Kelsey was great and patient with me and my pup! Will definitely use her for future sitter needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was young. I love dogs unconditionally and love to play with them, I feed them when needed, I can give baths, and I love to take them on walks. My friends and family have relied on me to dog-sit whenever I was available to do so. I’m currently an MSW student and work part time at the moment. Wednesdays and Fridays will typically be completely free all day. Monday, Tuesdays, and Thursdays I work till 5 PM in Grand Rapids. If services are in Newaygo I’m free at 6 PM once I’m back! I LOVE dogs so this is more of a side thing since I just genuinely enjoy playing and taking care of pups :) I have a fenced in yard and a very playful energetic dog. He is very sweet but he is like our baby so we don’t like to bring other dogs in just because he can get jealous and we don’t like to risk it.
About: Im a lifelong animal lover who finds so much joy in keeping pets entertained. I have experience with nail trimming, walking, and bathing. I have a flexible schedule for families that work and need pet care. I’m excited to take care of your fur babies, keep them safe, and bring you peace of mind. I currently work part-time as a line cook, since school is out for the summer. I will be attending college in the fall to pursue my dental hygiene degree. I am available Monday, Tuesday ,and Wednesday all day for same day booking or scheduled booking walking, sitting, and grooming. I make it my number one goal that all pets are safe and entertained, while in my care. I am diligent about making sure that doors/gates are latched and keeping a close on your pet at all times. I want to help keep your pet on their routine that makes them happiest. I’m happy to follow specific instruction in order to make your pet feel at home.
About: My daughter and I are dog sitting for two reasons -- we flat out love dogs and my daughter is saving for college. While supporting my daughter's entrepreneurial spirit your dog will get a vacation of a lifetime. Without getting too deep into my resume, here are some highlights: -Handled five police dogs. 1000's of deployments. -Master Trainer for the International Police Work Dog Association. -Developed and taught a unique dog safety program. Have presented the hands on program from everyone to 1000's of second graders to regional UPS drivers. -Recognized expert witness in court on dog tracking, aggression, training, and deployment. -Over 75 nationally published articles on dog obedience, housing, behavior, training, etc. -Tested, certified, and trained working dogs from nearly all 50 states and several countries. (This year I've had dog teams travel to my home from Montana, Florida, Iowa, etc for assistance). I do all this because I simply love interacting with dogs. The love has spread to my 13 year old daughter. I currently have a very fun, young, and goofy dog -- a Vizsla named "Ranger." He clearly isn't a working dog and isn't a picture of obedience perfection. (I only mention this to let you know that despite my resume your dog doesn't have to be perfect and is coming into a very fun and loving household!) We've truly been a dog centered household for 20 years. My wife is a literal Saint! My private dog training rates, and I've turned down much more work than I've accepted, runs 10x the Rover.com rate we are charging. This is truly a venture that partners up youth business and the love of dogs. Long live Capitalism, dogs, and the USA!
About: I am experienced pet sitter who has cared for dogs and cats for over 10 years. I have taken care of puppies, senior dogs, alongside both high energy and low energy pets. I am able to administer both oral and topical medications. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet while you're away and always ensure to take photos/videos for updates and give them all the attention they wish for. I have many years experience as a dog walker for drop in visits and with house sitting at client's homes while you're away at work. I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets with during the week and weekends. I am a freelancer with flexible scheduling. Within a client's home, I am happy to accommodate any preferred set up for maximum comfort for your pet. I am experienced with dog walking, providing oral or topical medication to pets, as well as in multi-pet households.
About: Ever since I was a little kid I’ve grown up with pets, whether it was 7 cats and zero dogs or 2 cats and three dogs, there was never a time in my life where my family didn’t own a pet. Animals are everything to me and if I can spend time hanging out with more animals and taking care of them on a daily basis then I want to take advantage of all of that joy. I will do anything from bathing and feeding your pets, to playing with them as long as they would like. If you need a good happy go lucky pet sitter then I am your girl! :) Hi! My boyfriend and I are currently looking for some extra ways to make some more Money for our trip while doing things we love. We absolutely adore animals and taking care of them, as we have three dogs at our house and two cats. Everyone cares for their pets differently so with that being said, you say it and we will follow. We have a fenced in yard here with 3 very lovable dogs and 2 cats, as well as a basement, so if needed we could separate the animals, as well as crates too.
“Brittany was prompt and reliable. She did not seem at all turned off by my two dogs’ energy level and ‘enthusiasm’ (including jumping) when she met them. I believe she did a great job exercising them. They seemed relaxed and settled when I returned home. I appreciated how well she kept in contact and the pictures she sent!”
About: I have had pets my entire life. I knew very young that I wanted to work with animals. I have a great love and compassion for them. I will take great care of your babies! I have a lot of experience caring and working with dogs. I have hobby farm experience (dogs, cats, chickens and a horse) as well. I am a Licensed Veterinary Nurse, therefore, I am educated in many aspects of caring for your pet. I know what to look for in case of illness, injury, etc. I can also do some other tasks, like toe nail trims, ear cleanings, etc. I am a dependable, trustworthy person who knows how important your pets are to you. I look forward to caring for your pets and/or walking your dog.
About: I adore dogs and exercise. I will take dogs out on long and enjoyable walks and give them another reason to love life!! I’ll give so much attention and exercise care to your dogs! I am working a full time job from home. I am free to walk dogs in the evenings after work, weekends, and maybe walks on my lunch breaks during the middle of the day. I have a small little 2 year old dog at home that has taught me the love and attention necessary to raise a happy dog and how to show them lots of love. I have had many dogs as I grew up as well so I know how to take care of a dog that I didn’t have a direct hand in training. I love all dogs and want them to non stop tail wag their way through life.
About: I am an animal lover. I have had cats all my life, and dogs for most of it. Big, small, furry, I can help you! At the moment I work remotely and will soon start as a substitute teacher, so I anticipate having a fair amount of free time on my hands. I have been caring for cats, dogs for over 30 years (I'm 35 and I've been doing it my entire life). I would love to play tug-o-war, fetch, snuggle with kitty, or whatever they want to do!
About: Hi! I’m Morgan, a lifelong dog lover and proud mom to a 10-year-old son and a 3-year-old daughter, along with our two dogs, Nike and Max. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I truly couldn’t imagine a home without them. Both of my children have grown up around dogs and have learned to be gentle, respectful, and loving with animals. Creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care is something I take seriously. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so my goal is to make you feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re one of my own. Every pet deserves plenty of love, attention, exercise, and individualized care, and I’ll make sure they receive exactly that. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member and provide them with the love and care they deserve! Before We Meet To help me give your pet the best possible experience, please let me know about: * Any medical conditions or medications * Food allergies or dietary restrictions * Favorite toys, treats, or activities * Triggers, fears, or behavioral concerns * Your pet’s daily routine and any special instructions * Anything else you’d like me to know to help your pet feel happy, safe, and comfortable I look forward to meeting you and your best friend!

“Megan was the best! She took excellent care of our boy, gave him plenty of exercise and snuggles, and even sent him home with a puppy report card ❤️ We will definitely use Megan again next time we're in the area and need a sitter!”
“Sabrina is a true dog lover, she took the time to learn and understand our pup’s traits and personalities and adjusted their care accordingly. Saylor is 10 and Lake is 2. They go for walks, play time in the yard and have dog treat hunts to just name a few activities. We receive texts with pictures and videos throughout the day. Saylor and Lake love staying with Sabrina and we highly recommend her. Kathy & Joe”
About: I’m 23 years old and I have 2 dogs. One is 7 and the other is 1 year old. I got them both when they were puppies so I’ve had dog experience for 7 years now. I like to take them for walks daily if weather is permitting as well as play fetch. I am a CNA but I do home care so my schedule is flexible, I can work mornings or nights. I love doing Outdoor activities. I have a nice fenced in back yard for them to run around and get their energy out. So far I’ve taught my dogs how to sit, shake, dance, and high five with both paws. I want to continue to teach them more tricks. I’m sure my dogs are looking forward to having more buddies to play with!
“Always a great experience leaving our Golden with Emily! Great communication, updates and pictures throughout our trips. They treat him like one of the family. Couldn't ask for a better experience. Happy to have found someone close to home to make our travels a little less stressful.”
“Christina did a wonderful job with our dog! We are very happy, and would definitely hire her again! Our dog is 13 years old and has almost never spent a night away from home, so we were a little nervous. He stayed with Christina for 5 days and she cared for him so well! The daily texts from her were so nice and reassuring! She made it very easy for us and our dog! He must have been comfortable with Christina because he came home like he'd never left!”
“Matt maintained great communication with us and our dog seemed to be very happy playing with Matt’s dog and going for walks. We’d definitely ask Matt to watch our dog again!”
“Rajah was such a sweetheart! This was my baby boy Tucker first time being away from us in 9 years, and he enjoyed her! He warmed up which i was very happy for since he’s very stand offish.. Rajah made sure to update us and also send pictures and just made us feel very secured! If I could’ve give more stars i would!”
“This was the first time we used Rachel. She asked if there was anything we were working on with the dogs so she could continue their training while we were gone, what their normal routine was, etc. The pictures she sent showed our dogs running, playing, on their laps, even on their bed (which is where they are at home most of the time). We felt very comfortable with the care they received with Rachel. We will definitely use her again!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs, all of whom I brought home at eight weeks old and personally raised and trained. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s a lifelong passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, from Chihuahuas to Pit Bulls to Alaskan Malamutes and everything in between. Over the years, I have provided pet care for neighbors, friends, colleagues, and clients, and I understand the importance of treating every dog with patience, kindness, and individualized care. While working as a home health care aide, I was often entrusted with caring for my clients’ pets, ensuring they were fed, exercised, and comfortable while their owners received care. I also volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society of West Michigan, where I gained experience working with dogs of varying personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding plans and dietary restrictions, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I am also certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, giving pet owners added peace of mind that their companions are in capable hands. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply spending time with someone who genuinely loves dogs, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care while you’re away. As a devoted dog owner of three, caring for animals is an integral part of my daily life, and I extend that same level of attention, responsibility, and affection to every pet in my care. I am fully comfortable handling all aspects of daily dog care, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, enrichment, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to be home for most of the day throughout the week, as well as on weekends, providing consistent supervision and companionship. I also have the option to work from home when additional attention or frequent potty breaks are needed. In my household, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. On typical days when I am away from home, my dogs are alone no longer than 5–6 hours. In many cases, my boyfriend may be home when I am not, and when both of us are working, we are generally away for no more than 4–5 hours at a time. If both of us are expected to be away for longer than two hours during a pet’s care period, I communicate this in advance to ensure transparency and appropriate planning. I maintain a consistent but flexible routine that prioritizes feeding, hydration, exercise, and enrichment. Dogs always have access to fresh water and are fed twice daily (or as often as your individual dog requires). Potty breaks are provided frequently based on each dog’s individual needs and cues; however, I am more than willing to follow a more structured schedule if that is what your pet is accustomed to. I am also experienced with administering medications, including monthly heartworm and flea prevention, and take great care to ensure all medications are given accurately and on time. While my household follows a generally relaxed routine, I understand that many pets thrive on structure. I am fully comfortable adhering to detailed instructions and incorporating established routines into my daily care. During the days I am available according to my Rover schedule, I am home for the majority of the day. Any brief absences are typically limited to short appointments, during which my boyfriend may assist with supervision, or pets will be safely confined if appropriate. Above all, I prioritize safety, supervision, and communication. Your pet will never be left without attentive care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure consistent supervision, engagement, and affection so that every animal feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their time with me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I share my home with three friendly dogs, each with their own unique personality: an energetic and affectionate Boston Terrier, a more reserved but sweet Boston Terrier, and a laid-back Chihuahua who enjoys staying close by. They are well-socialized and can provide companionship for visiting dogs when appropriate. My home is set up to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I have three individual crates with comfortable bedding available for dogs who are crate trained or require confinement, and you are always welcome to bring your own crate if it helps your pet feel more at home. While my own dogs enjoy free access to the house and are allowed on the furniture, I am happy to follow your pet’s established rules and routines, including using gates or designated areas if needed. Although my yard is not physically fenced, safety is always a top priority. My dogs are never outdoors unsupervised, and the same standard of care applies to every pet I watch. I have a large, open yard that provides plenty of space for exercise, and I regularly walk dogs on a leash around the property and in the neighborhood. If your dog is most comfortable on a leash or tie-out while outside, I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences. All of my dogs are current on their vaccinations and receive routine veterinary care. I pay close attention to changes in their health, behavior, and overall well-being, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat both your home and your companion with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training, household rules, and daily routines to ensure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you are away. At bedtime, I am happy to follow whatever sleeping arrangement your pet is accustomed to, whether that means sleeping in a crate, on their own bed, or sharing a room with me. My goal is to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable. My boyfriend and I live together, but I will be your pet’s primary caregiver. He may occasionally assist if I need to step away briefly, providing additional supervision and support, but all communication and primary care responsibilities remain with me. For added peace of mind, I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive, compassionate, and responsible care throughout their stay.
“Boomer had a great time. Nice big yard to play in and got lots of attention! I got daily updates and pictures of Boomer playing and having fun. We will definitely be visiting again!”

“Tabitha was great with Addie! She and her family made a gentle introduction to their other dog, and they had endless running and playing in their fenced yard! She also sent a bunch of photos and a video. We were grateful that our dog had such a fun filled day while we were away!”
“Amy did a wonderful job looking after our Beagle, Harvey for an extended weekend away. She was particularly good at giving us updates on how the dogs were doing throughout the weekend”
