“Patty was wonderful with our Mallory. We totally felt comfortable that Mallory was well taken care of during our vacation. We received updates and pictures most days and even a video of our happy girl. We will be using Patty again in the very near future.”

“Derek was wonderful! We had a three-day family event at Connor Bayou park nearby and needed a place in the area for our shy dog to stay. Derek was very accommodating with pickup/drop off times and even let us pick our dog up for a few hours one day to make an appearance at the event. We had a perfect weekend! Derek was very kind and understanding of our shy dog, and our dog had a great time! He has great "dog vibes" which our sensitive dog definitely picked up on. I highly recommend Derek and I would definitely use him again!”

“Terry and Chuckie did a fantastic job of taking care of our fur baby Sophie. Communicated very well and sent pics every day. You can tell they truly love dogs. Highly recommend!”

“Kiana was amazing She make sure she sent lot of updates along with pictures! Kiana understood how hard is was for me to leave my baby for the first time and keep me at ease! She is definitely part of the family now! Anytime I have to travel I know he'll be okay with his now "Auntie" ...lol”

“Beth took such good care of our two dogs and was great about providing photos and updates each day. We always felt like they were in great hands and her fenced in yard was perfect for them to run around and burn some energy.”

“I had such a great experience with Sylvia! She was very attentive, kept me updated with pictures and videos, and was flexible with timing. She even took my dog to the beach and went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and well cared for. My pup came home clean, loved, and spoiled. She was so sweet to my dog, and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi, I’m Jessica! I was born and raised in Montague, MI and love everything about it. I have four crazy dogs, four wonderful cats, two guinea pigs, and a 7 year old son. I have 10 years of animal experience, working at two Muskegon County animal shelters and as a vet assistant. I am licensed and insured through my personal business, Muskegon's Poopin Scoopin LLC. With my knowledge, experience, and above all passion; I guarantee the best service possible. I'm currently working part time during the week, so I have extra time to love on your furry friend!

In my home, your pet can have free access to outside with the doggy door. All cats are kept separate from the dogs. All dogs are fed separately. Detailed lists of your pets routine are helpful to ensure each pet is cared for to your expectations.

“Frances & her family were the perfect ones to take my Sadie for a week while I was away! They were able to make her feel at home and entertained enough so that she wasn’t miserable, like if she had to stay at a kennel. Plenty of treats and snuggles shared with fenced in yard to get out some energy. It was great to get daily updates to know how she was doing, and happy to know she warmed up after the first night of being in a new place. Will definitely book again if needed :)”

“We felt at ease leaving our dog, Blue, with Chris. He was responsive, checked in with updates and pictures of Blue and was flexible with drop off/pick up times. We definitely recommend Chris as a conscientious and caring pet sitter.”

“Wow wow wow Lenore was such a blessing! She watched my pup last minute and kept me updated the whole time. She was very very friendly and just an overal sweet woman. I highly suggest her and recommend her to everyone I know who's got a pup. 10/10!!”

“We loved leaving our two dogs with Brenda during spring break! She was very easy to work with and a great communicator. She sent us regular updates with pictures of the dogs. Her yard was the perfect set up for them (huge fenced in space), and she is conveniently located. Drop off and pick up were very easy to coordinate, and the dogs were happy and healthy when we got them home. I can tell they had lots of fun playing outside!”

“My pup looked happier than she has looked in a very long time! Brittany and her family took Echo in like she was family and that made my heart so happy! Even got her to eat when she was boycotting her food! So grateful I have found her- won’t go anywhere else!”

“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone my dog didn't know. Darla was very communicative during the stay and made me feel totally comfortable. She accomdated my dogs needs and made her feel at home during her stay. Great experience!”

“Teri was absolutely wonderful with our dog and cat. It is so obvious they were loved and taken care of while we were gone. I would definitely book with Teri again and recommend her services to anyone!!”

“Our cats warmed up to Emma quickly on our initial meet and greet and usually it can take them longer to get used to someone new. She showed up in the time frame requested and communicated details daily with great pictures. She asked for input when needed. I would happily have her take care of our cats again!”

“10/10 experience. Autumn was SO kind and gave our lil clementine all the love in the world. Made us feel so at ease leaving our girl with her! Will absolutely be a recurring client if possible. Can’t recommend enough!”


“Kristen is amazing!! She takes such great care of our cat Jerry while we are away and always goes above and beyond!! She is reliable, kind, and treats our baby like her own. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Allyson went above and beyond, truly!! I feel beyond lucky to have found her! We have 4 cats, 2 that are kittens and they are our babies! We could clearly tell that the cats had been well taken care of. When we got home we noticed that the litter stayed cleaned and the cats were completely normal, as in they stayed on schedule and happy ?? One of the kittens had a scratch above her eye and Allyson kept a close eye on her healing and overall well being. Her messages were kind and reassuring. For the first time in a while we felt completely comfortable and assured that the kitties were in good hands while we were away. Excited to have Allyson now we all love her! ?”

“What an amazing experience to be able to be gone for a long day and know that Millie was loved and well cared for by Lexi!! We definitely will set up more dates with her! Thank you so much!! 😊”


“Just fabulous. On our meet and greet, Barts (my cat) took to Maggie immediately. During her check-ins, I got timely updates and plenty of photos - playtime, open window time, snacks and cuddles. Excellent communication at all times. Maggie even helped me out by watering some plants, and took the initiative to take my trash can out to the curb for pickup even though I hadn’t mentioned it. Upon arriving home, I was greeted by a very happy cat even though I’m sure he will miss her. At least until the next time because I won’t hesitate to book Maggie again if she is available. 🙂❤️”


“Nicholas and Caitlin were so great! They communicated well and sent pictures, showed up promptly for the check ins and seemed to really enjoy spending time with our boys most importantly you could tell the dogs really loved them. We have big boisterous dogs and they are not for the faint of heart-Caitlin and Nicholas didn’t bat an eye and even won over our shy guy. We will absolutely be booking again in the future.”

“We cannot say enough about how much our animals love spending time with Judy when we’re away from home. If you are looking for someone to stop by, take your dog for a walk, or stay at home while your away, she’s the best!!!”

“We cannot state our appreciation for Beth further— she helped us out in a complete bind. We’re not from the area and travel with our dogs often so thought nothing of it when we had a wedding to attend in Holland but one dog decided she didn’t want to be quiet in our accommodations and we were told to figure it out or be evicted from the hotel (understandable). We put the call out to a few dog sitters over Rover and Beth responded quickly with compassion and responsiveness. We were able to drop our dogs with her after a very easy-going meeting to make sure all parties were comfortable and safe. It was easy to see Beth cared and had a great operation. We were able to attend the wedding and reception afterwards with peace of mind. We just scooped up our pups and they’re completely, happily pooped. I would recommend Beth to anyone who is looking for someone with a giant heart and generous soul to take care of their pups. Thanks again, Beth!!!”

“Maddie is absolutely wonderful!! Our puppy loves her family just as much as they love him. This was our puppy’s third stay with Maddie and he always has a fun time with her. We know with Maddie our puppy is safe and very well taken care off. I would highly recommend Maddie anytime !”

“Daniel did a truly amazing job. We’re so thankful for his quick replies to our last minute request. He kept us updated and our boy had an amazing time from start to finish and slept hard that night.”

“Michelle was wonderful! I could tell that Apollo was relaxed and well taken care of. She sent updates and responded in a timely manner. I would highly recommend her to any other pet parent!”

“Vicki's Doggy day care was perfect! This was our first experience through Rover and we are super happy! Vicki sent updates and pictures, which our kids loved! She was super personable and kind! She even let my 2 younger kiddos play with her pups when we got back to pick up our dog! He didnt even want to come with us, he wanted to stay. Thank you so much!”

“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!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I’ve volunteered at the ASPCA, to walking my neighbors dogs, to taking in my sisters dog in when she moved away, sadly she passed away last year and I’ve had a hole in my heart ever since. So I figured joining Rover would be a great way to start filling that void I have! I have a lot of extra time on my hands! I just moved to Georgia a few months back! I’m in school online but it still leaves alot of free time for me so why not have someone’s fur baby around to keep me company! I love to continue the schedule pawrents have for their animals already or I can start a good schedule for them to start following if you would like! And we will definitely go on walks every time they come! I do have a fenced in back yard so your fur baby will have a lots of room to play and run around! And feel free to bring their beds or cages and toys if needed! I know having something comfortable or familiar around is great for making them feel at home!
