“My dog seemed to have a great time staying with Mina. She likes to be out in the sun and got to spend a lot of time in the fenced backyard. Mina sent many pics and video so I never had to worry about what my dog was up to. Very pleased and would not hesitate to use her as a sitter again.”
“Rachel is amazing with our highly energetic Sheltie pup! He always loves going there and hanging out with their dog and cats. They give him endless amounts of walks and fetch and outdoor play, even in the cold. 10/10!!!!”
“Darcy and Danielle were outstanding sitters for Remy. They were very communicative and paid attention to all the details. I could really tell that Remy got so much love, and he really seemed happy when I picked him up. I would definitely recommend them and I’m looking forward to the next booking with them.”
“They were very well cared for. Updates were provided twice a day, they offered more if we needed it. All questions I had up to and during the process were answered quickly. Our very anxious cats came home and immediately began being themselves and acting right as rain.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased about the care my dog received staying at Oscar’s home. It gave me great peace of mind getting the photos and videos every day I was away, and I brought home such a calm & happy girl who had the time of her life playing with other dogs in the big backyard. Highly recommend and will definitely rebook!”
“Tiffany was fantastic! She send me at least one picture every day and she answered my questions fast. My Coco looked happy during her whole stayed. 100% would recommend.”
“Caroline did a great job with our pups. She made every effort to keep us updated with videos and our dogs were exhausted from playing when we picked them up! Thanks so much, Caroline!”
“Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of our dog while we were out of town. She is a very kind and responsible person and I felt that I can trust her right when I met her. She updated us with pictures and messages every day, which was great. Absolutely will go back to her in the future!”
“So kind and accommodating! Piper had a great time with Deb and Malcomb! Thank you for taking care of piper while we traveled to a family reunion out of state. Knowing that piper was in a home environment with dog lovers made us feel at ease. Deb was very good at sharing pictures and keeping us updated daily on our Miss Piper. A+ experience. Will highly recommend and will use in future. This was our very first Rover.com experience and it was good! Thank you!!”
“This was our dog’s second stay with Ariana and her dog Yogi. I was very impressed with our dog’s care during her first stay and I was equally impressed during her second stay. Our dog is not easygoing, and at one point I worried whether we would ever be able to find a sitter who would make her feel comfortable. Ariana is that sitter. She provides a loving, relaxed, fun environment and is exceptionally good at communicating with owners. She sets a new standard.”
“Wiley boarded for 5 days, had a great time. Being with other dogs was great. We’re very happy with his care and his stay. Definitely recommend and definitely will book again.”
“Andrew took great care of my two dogs during a long weekend trip I took. I’m immensely grateful. I got update photos and prompt communication about my pups the whole time. Thanks Andrew!”
“Tara did an amazing job watching our dog, Winston! From the moment she picked him up, we knew he was in good hands. Winston clearly felt loved and comfortable during his stay, and it was heartwarming to see how well he got along with her pup, Bosco. Tara kept us in the loop with adorable updates throughout the day, which really put our minds at ease. When she returned him, Winston was happy and well-cared for. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Tara for dog sitting.”
“Katie & Kristen and their family were amazing with my buddy, Pops! He felt so at home the second Katie opened the door for drop-off. I can't recommend them enough for taking care of your furry friend ❤️❤️”
“Reneé was great with Lily for a short overnight stay! She took lots of cute photos of her. She even squeezed in a quick walk before our pickup time. Lily will be back!”
“We highly recommend Skip and Mary! Blue is hard to win over and he was snuggling with them before the end of the first night. They are clearly dog lovers, and they are a perfect fit if your dog is used to having someone at home often, loves walks, snuggles, but is not comfortable around children. Thank you for taking such good care of Blue!”
“Elizabeth and Brian were vey attentive and interested in learning my dog, Sky's, care needs prior to her stay. Sky stayed one night to make sure this was a good match before she stays longer during a summer vacation. Sky was seemed happy at pick up and was her normal self when she returned home other than being a little more tired from playing which is not a bad thing. I feel confident having Sky return later this summer for a longer stay.”
“So happy with Erin and Jeff. Our dog has separation anxiety so we wanted somewhere he could stay for our extended trip where he felt at home. We did a few visits before our long trip so he would know Erin and Jeff. When we dropped him off this time he went right in their home and made it his own. And they celebrated having him, and helped him stay comfortable. We were gone for 2 weeks and he had an awesome time! He was very happy to see us, but for showed NO signs of stress or rushing to get home. He had an awesome time! Regular walks, play time with other dogs, playing with Jeff, couch and bedtime cuddles often. Erin and Jeff are winners. We're already scheduled for a future weekend! 5 stars !”

“Abigail took amazing care of our two cats, Cookie and Guggu. She was reliable, attentive, and kept everything clean and organized. Our cats were calm and happy when we returned, which shows how well she looked after them. We were really impressed with her kindness and professionalism, and we’ll definitely be using her every time. Highly recommended!”
“Jessi was just absolutely wonderful. She sent updates of her activities with Spooky everyday, as well as lots of cute photos of playtime and pets. She was also extremely pleasant during our meet-and-greet and definitely took care to follow specific instructions. I will absolutely be asking her in the future to look after Spook.”
“Greyson did a wonderful job watching my boy. I wasn't sure how open Ozzy would be to interacting with a new person but he really opened up to them. I loved reading the after visit notes, I would share them with the people I was with. Greyson was also really flexible when I had a family situation come up and had to move my trip earlier. I will definitely be booking them again the next time I need someone to watch Ozzy.”

I keep communication open while providing the best at home care to make your fur babies comfortable. They'll get lots of attention, love and snuggles while you'll get consistent updates about their stay. I work from home full time so they'll have a constant companion and attention. Constant potty breaks and snuggle sessions are guaranteed. They also have a yard they can run in. I have one friendly male dog who loves to make friends. Our yard is not fenced but large enough to run and we have multiple safety leads for a doggy to run and play
“Allison is a great pet sitter. She is prompt with her communication and sends photos from each visit. I feel confident that my dog is in good hands when Allison is completing drop in visits. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Rani is Heaven sent! We had a prior arrangement that was not going well and Rani was available and flexible and soooo good with our cat, Loki. She really gave him the love and affection that we would have, which is exactly what we were looking for! You will not go wrong with leaving your fur babies in her hands. Thank you again, Rani! You restored our peace. God bless you!”
About: I am recently widowed and life feels pretty lonely. I currently cannot afford to have a dog of my own but I adore them and all animals and I would love to give my time to your fur babies while your away. I have been pet and house sitting for over 22 years. I used to work at a pet store and I have a lot of experience with dogs and animals of all sizes and needs. I use a loving but firm and peaceful approach with training. My German Shepherd named Ravin was my amazing companion for 13 years and I enjoyed going on adventures to find sticks, playing ball, tug of war and just snuggling and getting love. I'd love to do the same for your fur baby.
“Thank you, Fatima, for your daily drop-in care for our Gladys. Your daily notes and pictures of Gladys during your time with her was much appreciated. I will continue to request your service for Gladys for our upcoming travels.”
“Lauren & Cris were amazing to my kitties while I was away for Christmas. They gave excellent notes and even stick around longer than they needed to (on Christmas Eve!) because one of my cats ate up the medication we left out for the entire trip. I felt very secure having them there and would definitely book again. 10/10 - wish I could give more stars. ☺️”
“Silvia was great with my cat, Franklin. All the videos and pictures I received put my mind at ease and let me know he was being given the best treatment! Will be coming back to Silvia in the future!”
“Honestly I don’t know where to start she’s so good she overwhelmed my babies with love passion care and authentic. She cares for my babies like her own. She did thinks I didn’t do. She went above and beyond. I read her other reviews and felt she’s too good to be true. BUT SHE IS. She’s amazing. Gave my babies their medication. Checked their Litterbox and reported on it and even changed it. My cats don’t even go up to my brother. They were so comfortable showing their tummy and being affectionate with her. I was so relaxed knowing they are in good hands while on vacation I sometimes didn’t need to check in with her which is so not me. I already booked her for January. I saw a comment that said she doesn’t want to share Casey. I UNDERSTAND!!! Thank you for having a beautiful genuine soul. I can now vacation without worrying. If you don’t book her, more for me :)”
“Vinny did an exceptional job taking care of all my pets! They took great care and attention to follow my requests, were very responsive, and had a great attitude! Would hire again!”
“Isabelle was amazing! I loved reading her descriptions of her visits and the photos of my babies 💖 I was comforted on my trip knowing she was taking such good care of them. I could tell she really loves animals and my cat MooMoo definitely misses her already lolll, I'll for sure be booking again in the future 💕”
“Harleigh was a fantastic pet sitter. She fed my cats, took care of their boxes, and even took out my trash so I wouldn't miss trash day while I was in vacation. She's very good with cats, and has a ton of experience. I recommend her.”

“Maria was so great. Got many updates. Even a nice quick one after i left because Molly was a little timid to have me leave, she can be shy at first. I was sad to leave her on her first doggie daycare. But Marie made everything great, she shared multiple pictures that she warmed up and went on walkies and she seemed to have a great time. I hope to make this a weekly occasion! It was nice to be stress free at work.”
“Novah had a great day with Rachel and Michael and Ember! Novah loved running in their very large fenced in yard. Rachel went out of her way to make sure everything went smoothly. And Michael spent a long time with Novah outside playing with her and working on training activities. I highly recommend Rachel if you want a fun and safe place for your dog for day care! Thank you Rachel and Michael! Novah is excited to see you all again soon!”
About: I have had dogs since I was little, helped my parents walk, feed, bathe, clean up after them. I had my own dog for 12 years. My children also love dogs and love to help with them. I work evenings but while I'm at work my husband is home with our children so someone is always home to take care of your dog. We have a little yard but can offer unlimited potty breaks, clean environment, an area for naps and bedtime. Lots of love from my children to keep them entertained!
“With my first puppy I quickly became worried i'd never be able to take a vacation. George eased my own separation anxiety and I was comfortable taking my first day trip away from my 8 month old puppy knowing she was safe and cared for.”
“Phoebe had a great visit with Kaeden! It was her first daycare experience. Kaeden communicated well, answered all of my questions, and provides lots of photos. The backyard area is very secure. We will be back!”
“Oscar and Shannon were great! Maintained good walking habits for my pup and sent me updates during the day. Super responsive and easy to coordinate with. Will definitely be coming back to them.”
“Panda came back so-o-o relaxed and happy from Laura and Manuel's. (He was happy to go there, and in no big hurry to come home!) Good amount of feedback of how he spent his day and how he behaved. Their dogs are such a sweet little dog pack for any pup to join! And Laura is so good at putting anxious dogs at ease.”
About: I am a lifelong dog lover! I've grown up with dogs and had my own family dog for the past 25 years. I would be happy for your dog to join me and my active Dobe for some play, walks, hikes or even snuggle time. I have a large fenced dog run and I live in a wonderful rural area with lots of parks and long gravel roads for exploring and walking. I currently work from home with a lot of flexibility in my work schedule. I love a morning and afternoon walk or hik (weather permitting) with the dogs. I have a fenced dog run and a goofy Dobe to keep your dog company. My dog is fully up to date on vaccinations and our dog is truly part of our family. We are looking for doggie friends to come and play. Lots of love and attention to share!
“Allyssa is amazing! She really goes above and beyond making sure our dog is cared for and given all the love and attention she needs. Our senior dog has a lot of health issues, and Allyssa has been amazing at making sure she’s taken care of and comfortable (even during an unexpected power outage today!). Thank you so much!”
“Jennifer and her visiting sister, Joni, took amazing care of our Corgi and Cockapoo for the day. Jennifer's home and yard are perfect for furrbabies. The girls had the best time and were completely exhausted when we picked them up. We would definitely book with Jennifer again.”
“I couldn’t possibly be happier with my dog’s experience at Teresa’s home. From our meet and greet a few days ago to daycare today, Teresa has been nothing but kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming to my dog and my family. Her dogs were a great mix of playful and chill - my pup is worn out this evening, haha. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I thought about daycare for my new rescue dog. Many more playdates to come. 🙂 It’s so comforting knowing she was in excellent hands.”
“I can tell that Heather really treated our dog like part of her family. And I can tell, too, that Panda had a very tiring, happy day at her house. He was excited to see me, but in NO hurry to go home. And he's been sleeping since we got back.”
“Samantha was amazing! My husband and I took Maru to Michigan and needed someone to watch her while we attended an event. Maru spent two days with Samantha’s family, and we picked her up at nights. Our puppy is almost 6 months old and hadn’t been around many people or dogs, but Samantha and her family gave her outstanding care and great socialization. Maru came back to us happy and loved. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone who wants their dog to be safe, happy, and well-socialized while they’re away.”
“Andrew is a kind heart and knows how to look after dogs. My Carly has enjoyed her stay with him immensely playing with her buddy, Andrew‘s dog Dante I’m older and it’s hard to give my dog the exercise and stimulation that she needs. I know she’s in great hands with Andrew.”

“Jessi knows just what our Hiro needs. Our rescue dog can fearful of other dogs and be reactive. Jessi’s calm confident demeanor helps our dog remain calm and confident so he is able to walk our neighborhood. Jessi has a way with animals!!”
“Lauren has been wonderful with Ike. She is very responsive, communicates clearly, and is always patient with him. Since Ike is a shy boy, I really appreciate the time and effort she puts into helping him feel comfortable. With each visit, Ike has become more relaxed and confident around her, which speaks volumes about her caring and gentle approach. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”

About: We provide boarding for your cat or dog in a family-based environment. We try to keep a structured and caring home environment for pets while their owners are away. Our goal is to keep the experience for you and your pet as safe and stress free as possible. Additionally, I have First Aid and CPR Certification for cats and dogs. I am also Fear Free Certified. Being Fear Free Certified means I was trained to look at subtle signs of stress in dogs and cats before they escalate. As well as techniques to make interactions with dogs and cats less stressful. My husband works from home, and I'm also at home with my children. During the school year I do drop off and pick up for the kids. My husband is home at this time. Therefore, dogs are generally always supervised, although there may be brief periods of time we are all out of the home. We have an area designated for the dogs in our home. This helps reduce the risk of escaping and helps keep them more safe. We also have a fenced in backyard. However, we always supervise interactions in the backyard between dogs or when the dogs are alone.

About: I have been around dogs and pets since I was very young. We had a family dog I helped take care of and all three of my siblings have had either a dog or cat that I would pet sit. My roommate also currently owns a puppy that I help out with as well. I am currently a full time student at GVSU and I have a part time job but it is very flexible. I can always make scheduling work as long as we communicate! I do not board other dogs very often unless it is dire. But trust and safely will depend on where you live and what you and your pet are comfortable with.
“Rani is a sweet gal with a willing spirit. She was patient with my dog and successful with the walk (my dog was putting her head down and not wanting to go forward) It was the perfect midday break. Sweet Pea got a walk, human company and potty relief. I’m so glad we found Rani to help. I recommend her wholeheartedly”

We will absolutely be boarding with George again!”
