“Ruth took great care of my anxious Toy Aussie! She sent several photos and updates of my pup and made sure she was well taken care of. Ruth responded in a timely manner and the communication was easy. I would let my pup stay with Ruth again!”
“Chad and his kids (and Lucy, his doodle) took great care of our Poppy! He was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Poppy seemed very comfortable there and we will send her there again!”
“Our Happy had a very successful and positive stay with Tracy. As a first time user of Rover, we were very fortunate to find Tracy! She arranged a meet and greet, explained her set up, introduced her family and pets to us and our dog, and answered many questions for us (this was Happy's first boarding experience). All went very well, she sent daily reports and fun pictures. This allowed us to enjoy our time away even more, knowing our pup was in good hands (and laps) 😊. We plan to reach out to Tracy each time we need boarding for our Happy, highly recommend!”
“We left our two kittens with Jenny for two weeks and she took really good care of them, she kept us updated and sent us photos of our babies while we were away. We will definitely reach out to her whenever we require a boarding service again, we really recommend her!”
“Erin and Brian were great communicators and took good care of Cedar. They clearly love animals and have created a space where pups are welcome. Cedar enjoyed having playmates for the weekend and came home to us in a chipper mood. We’ll definitely plan to hire Erin and Brian again when we have future pet sitting needs.”
“Mark and Leah were absolutely wonderful. This was our first time using Rover and they made Pepper feel right at home. Great communication and sent picture updates during her stay. Will definitely be booking with them again!!”
“Clover got the best treatment during her boarding with Caroline! She was well-loved and cared for, and updates helped us relax while we were away. Will definitely be booking again with Caroline!”
“Chip LOVED his stay with Felix. He came home truly tuckered out after a weekend of fun, and even learned to bring the ball back with fetch. I asked Felix if he wanted Chip’s travel crate and he said “where I go, Chip goes” which honestly gave me such peace of mind being my first time leaving him. It’s clear that Felix loves dogs, and I knew my Chip man was in great hands. We will definitely be seeing Felix again!!”
“I visit GR a decent amount to visit my parents who have a dog that doesn’t like other dogs very much. I always book with Desiree, Marley absolutely adores her and her family. Highly recommend.”
“Wow, Marissa is the best. We got photos frequently and reports of how our furry friend was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with our crazy work schedules. Best sitter ever!”
“Awesome, thank you for your help for the day, we appreciate it, Fiona has been tired out and upset she can't play with her friends since being home, so I'm taking that as a good sign!”
“Tatyana did such an amazing job watching my pup, Pudge! She regularly sent me photos and cute videos and made sure that I knew he was loved and cared for while I was away. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter for their dog! I'll be using her services again and again. Thanks Tatyana!”
“My dog is so eager to stay that he jumps out of the car ahead of me and runs to her door. Rachel is truly a dog lover, but also knowledgeable about their training and health needs. She really makes it possible for me to have a dog and still have a life!”
“Molly was wonderful!! She was communicative (I loved the daily updates with photos) and did so much to keep our dog busy and exercised. She came home extra tired and extra happy. Would definitely recommend!”

“Maia is amazing and took such great care of our Mo while we were on our trip. She communicates well, leaves detailed notes of each stay, and sends lots of pictures. I truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better!”
“Liz is the best. The pictures she sent were so great… how many can you send for a week of consistent cat watching that are interesting? She did! Knowing someone was watching our cat who cares for her made us happy as we were away.”
“Molly was great! She communicated very clearly and even double-checked the window of time I requested for her visits, which involved medication. I had inadvertently mentioned two different arrival times, which were close but not the same. Another person could have thought, "Oh, I'll just go at such and such a time. Close enough." But Molly took the time to reach out and double-check. I appreciated that. When visiting cat, did everything just right! I recommend Molly!! 😊”
About: I work remotely, which gives me flexibility throughout the day and allows me to provide attentive, personalized care during house sitting visits. I understand that every cat has their own personality, preferences, and routine, and I do my best to make them feel comfortable, secure, and at ease while you're away. Whether your cat is social and loves attention or prefers their own space, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them happiest. My focus is on maintaining your cat's normal routine as closely as possible in the comfort of their own home. This includes feeding schedules, playtime, litter box care, administering medications if needed, and following any special instructions you provide. I'm experienced with cats of all ages, from energetic kittens to seniors who prefer a quieter pace. My goal is to provide a calm, stress-free experience so your cat can stay comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment while you're away. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your cat is safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love, attention, and care.
About: I am the friends and family dog sitter! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and I could still pet them for hours and not get bored. On average I stay at someone houses for a week while they’re on vacation as well as but not as often a weekend stay. As well as drop in visits to feed, walk or let pets out to do their business. I am great will all breads and sizes of dogs/cats, as well as ages such as senior animals. I personally took are of our 90lb 11 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback after her back legs gave out. So while using a harness I would help her do everything, such as standing up to eat, move around and go outside. I can also do things like trimming nails and bathing them (especially if you unable to bath them yourself). I truly care and feel for every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently not working full time at the moment and have been doing small jobs here and there such as dog sitting for friends and family. I have a great portion of time for spend getting to know and engaging in your pets. I’m available anytime after 9am. I will care for your pets the way I would care for my own and in such continue their regular and daily routine. Including things such as walking them in the morning/night, playing with them and loving them or any other needed or wanted activities.
“Elise helped us out last minute with aalllll day daycare for our dog. She was even able to drop her at home and get her in her crate to save us a late night pick up. And, we realized during the day, our poor cat would be hungry! She was super flexible and able to add a drop-in visit for him too. She communicated well and provided photos of both our animals. Our pup had tons of fun with Apollo and we will happily book again!”
“Mandee provided exceptional care for our 2 cats (& checked on our home/mail/trash). We appreciated the updates and pictures she provided. She played with our fur babies and made sure they were set with litter, food, and water each day. Would recommend and definitely book her again.”
“Andrea did a wonderful job caring for our senior kitty! She was great at communicating when there were questions and provided appreciated details on the Rover cards. Thank you for the great care!”
“Emily has been a total joy to interact with, all communication has been very easy and we feel that our cat Rajah has been spoiled with attention and love. We've really enjoyed the pictures of him she included with each visit, and we feel super grateful for her prompt arrival times, and her check-ins with us that evoke a sense of great kindness and care. We will absolutely rebook with her!”
“Ivana is a punctual and a conscientious sitter and took great care of my dogs and my place. She takes her job seriously, was respectful to me and went above and beyond to care for my dogs. I will definitely use her services again. I am happy to have found her.”
“Mackenzie did a great job dropping in and taking care of our cats and chickens. She did everything we asked and everybody was well taken care of when we returned from vacation!”
“Ricardo did an excellent job with my two boys. While one is older with a grumpy attitude and the other is skittish, Ricardo did an awesome job trying to coax them out of their shell. I will absolutely consider rebooking with Ricardo in the future.”

About: I’ve owned dogs all my life. I believe they are more than pets, they are trusted friends. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own. I work primarily from home. I’m away only 10-15 hours per week. I’m very flexible and willing to work with you for the love and benefit of your pet. I live in my new built home. There is a lot of area outside where we can walk, but I’ll never leave a dog unattended. I have my kids (aged 16 & 18) part time. They may be around. My kids love dogs.
“Libby is the best! She does such a great job with Bo and he loves going to see her. She gives regular updates, takes him to the park and on hikes, and is very attentive and responsive. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve owned dogs all of my life, both large and small. I work from home and happy to spend part of my day making sure your fur baby is well taken care of! I work from home so have availability most days during the work week to spend time with your pup in the Rockford Area! If you’re interested in daytime in-home care, our Schnoodle, Ares, gets along great with other dogs and would love a daytime friend. We do not have a fenced in yard, but have a great neighborhood for walks. We also have multiple leads to be outside in our yard with pups.
“Marina came to my rescue after a last minute change of plans! I’ve worked with Marina before, and my dog absolutely loves her. It gives me such peace of mind to know that my dog will be well cared for while I’m at work.”
About: I am a retired Special Education Teacher. Your pet will get spoiled in my home or yours! I am a compassionate, caring person. I have been providing care for dogs for 4 years. I have plenty of references to back up any recommendation that you made need. My last pet was a puppy named Bella that I provided care for. I watch her 30 hours a week and helped potty train her. I loved her as if she was my own. I was Gramma Lisa to her and we formed a special bond which I do with all the pets I watch. I have had dogs in my life since I was young. I tell my friends that I will know I am heaven when I see my past dogs around me.
About: I’ve always had animals of my own, basically since I was old enough to walk. I started my own pet-sitting business when I was 13. I’m the go-to for friends and family when they need their babies cared for and I love every breed. I studied veterinary medicine for a number of years and have more recently begun to train dogs, as well. I work full-time but I make my own schedule. I also live just a few minutes away from my work and can pop back to my house when need be. I’m already taking care of our senior dog, our new puppy, and our two cats. I love being outside and taking the babies for walks. I have a fenced in yard as well as two other dogs and two other cats. I have a large crate as well as two portable enclosures and no shortage of extra bowls, blankets, toys, and towels. I live in a great neighborhood and there is a park a block away. It’s important to me that animals are well taken care of and I love spending extra time playing and snuggling with any babies I get to hang out with.
“Megan did a great job watching our pup. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated while we were gone. Harley was EXHAUSTED when we left, which is always a great sign. Will definitely use her again.”
“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 ❤️.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, currently have a rescue that is a Cur/Dalmatian mix. I fostered a German Shepherd and just found him his forever home! My previous pup was a pure bred red-nose pit! I work from home so am available for all needs! And yes, my dog does sleep on my bed! Lots of outdoor toys to tire them out! I have a fenced in yard and a “puppy pool” for those hot days! I live in a quiet neighborhood with an excellent dog walking route, even have a neighbor who put out dog treats in a mailbox for frequent walkers!

“Ricardo is amazing! First time using Rover and I absolutely picked the right person. He scheduled a meet-and-greet to introduce himself and get to know my dog. They were completely at ease with each other. Ricardo’s a proactive communicator, provided regular updates, and was always friendly and punctual. I highly recommend.”

About: I've taken care of all sorts of different dogs and cats throughout my life. I've had experience with large reactive dogs, dogs who like their space, cats who don't like to be touched, dogs who have endless energy, cats who love all the snuggles, dogs who only selectively like other dogs and the friendliest of pups!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life as well as fostering both for six years. I have experience with puppies, kittens, seniors, reactive dogs, and medication administration! I’m just looking for something fun to do between classes during the week and on my off days! It also allows me some much needed time with dogs as I unfortunately don’t have any since moving from Northern Michigan! I would treat them as if they were my own pet follow the owners instructions and be respectful of their home. I’m comfortable administering medications and working with reactive animals.
“Thank you! Lillie was able to come by with very little notice and arrived right on time. She was easy to communicate with and very patient with Squidward, who is shy and nervous around new people. They went for a walk, and when the heat became too much for him, she appropriately brought him back early. I had a good first experience and will likely book with her again so Squidward can continue getting comfortable with her.”
“My dog is pretty anxious when it comes to new people/being around people when I’m not present, but Jasmine is so great with him! She was able to meet him prior to becoming his dog walker and he loved her instantly.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I love dogs so much that I volunteer at our local shelters. Recently moved back to the NE side of GR. Available weekends too!

I have small and large crates and tons of pet cushions, dog bowls, and treats. I’ve had pets my whole life and they are like family members to me.
“Colleen has been walking our dog consistently for a few months now and our dog LOVES her! She has been super reliable, as we new parents and have limited time to go on long walks with our high-energy golden doodle. She also does a great job granted he pulls a ton. We are so grateful for her!”

About: I have nannied many households who also had dogs. I absolutely adore any fur baby that I come across. These precious animals give us such unconditional love, I feel that I have to reciprocate that love. I have a puppy named Daisy who loves all animals and people! I am a teacher who gets summers off. So I would love to fill up my time taking care of some sweet animals! The more the merrier! I currently live with my aunt who does not like animals. I have worked at a Christian camp for the past 3 years and started teaching in the Grand Rapids area! I would love to dog sit animals since I know they tend to feel more comfortable in their own space. I would clean up after myself and the dog daily and take very good care of their space.
“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.”
“Amy and Mia are great. Both were wonderful hosts for our dog Ellie. She loved her time with them. Amy was very accommodating to Meet & Greet with us on short notice and made us feel at ease. Amy is very personable and we enjoyed talking with her. Ellie felt like she was HOME away from home and got to hang with another furry friend. What fun!! Ellie was walked and well taken care of during her stay. We received updates and photos. We were blessed to have found such a caring sitter for Ellie. Thank you.”
