“Beth provides a welcoming home and we know our dog was well cared for on our trip. She was great with communication and flexible with drop off and pick up. We would not hesitate to book Beth again. Highly recommend!”
“Pamela was excellent! She was accommodating for us to pick up our dog so he could come boating with us, and also did a great job making sure our dog was welcome, happy, and safe.”
“Christopher did an incredible job caring for Hachi. He kept me updated with messages and photos, and it was so reassuring to see Hachi happy, bonding with Jasi and the rest of his family. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to others looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Derek is great! He’s quick to respond and is accommodating with drop off / pick up times. He sent pictures of my dog having so much fun with his own. Definitely recommend and will continue re-booking.”
“Brittany was so amazing with our dog! She sent lots of pictures (which we really appreciated) and was very communicative over text with updates! Our dog had a blast and we would 100% leave our dog with Brittany again!”
“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 :)”
“Thank you Stephenie !! Great experience with our pet sitter! She kept us updated by sending pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, Zoey was happy and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend!”
“Daniel is always so sweet with our animals, we were gone on a longer than normal trip and it made us feel so much better knowing they were in good care while we were gone.”
“We were so thankful to know our dog was with Terry and his wife. They took him in like one of their own from the moment they met Frodo. The pictures were great, and they were very accommodating with drop off/pick up. 10/10 would send Frodo to them again!”
“Sylvia was great! It was my first time using rover and she made me feel very comfortable with leaving my dog! She sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated! She was very respectful and attentive to the dog. Would use her again!!”

We always follow all instructions from pet owners to ensure safety of pets. We know how precious our pets are to us when we use Rover so we ensure safety and care.
“We had a week long vacation and weren't sure what to do with our doodles while we were gone. We toured some local kennels (which would have been a fine backup) but then I figured I'd take a look at Rover as well...and I'm glad I did. We got back last night and the dogs are still sleeping off the fun they had a Brenda's house! We got pictures of them enjoying trips to the dog park and spending lots of time in her very large backyard. It really made being away for that long much easier. Everything was amazing and I know they would be happy to visit her again. I would recommend to all my friends and family!”
“Nicole did such an amazing job with our girls. Communication was great. She send tons of pictures to help ease my mind. Her whole family was so good with the girls. I will def use her gain when needed. My girls have a new retreat to go too. They loved it and her family.”
“I am completely at ease when we leave our german shorthair pointer with this family. We get plenty of updates and it looks like Daisy gets plenty of playtime with their pet and plenty of attention from the humans. The second time we brought her there she ran right up to the house like she remembered the good memories she made there the last time.”

“Dawn was an exceedingly reliable and personable pet sitter for our indoor and outdoor cats. Our shy indoor girl was quickly won over and looked forward to Dawn's visits, brushing and playtime. We enjoyed getting the daily pics and reports. Communication throughout the entire booking and engagement was stellar. We will absolutely ask for Dawn next time we're both away from home!”
“Elexis was wonderful! She took the time to get to know my cats and their preferences at the meet and greet. She provided great care for my girls and awesome updates. I recommend Elexis 100%!”
About: I have grown up, been around, and generally loved all dogs my whole life. I can be gentle, energetic, and cuddly with your pup. I come dressed for any kind of weather; rain, sun, or snow! I have experience with giving liquid or pill medications orally also. I’m currently working part-time from home. I’ll be available to play with your pups during the week or most weekends! I’m available mostly during the week, but weekends are not out of the question. I have a golden retriever named Tucker who gets along with other dogs and would love a playmate. He does however, easily respect if other dogs do not want the attention. I am also located in between quite a few dog parks. Quincy park, East End Park (both fenced) Kirk Park, which has a great dog beach! Mulligans and Pigeon park are a couple of other places I love to walk (or run) my pup! We love going to dog parks!! My husband and son also would also love to play with your pup! If you bother to look at my pictures, it is pretty evident that we love to take our dog everywhere with us! My husband will also bring our dog to work with him.
“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. 🙂❤️”
“Sam did a great job watching my cat while I was in the hospital. She went overboard to ensure Autumn was integrated with her own cats. The pictures and videos were really appreciated and helped make my hospital stay more bearable.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 20 years and have experience with kittens, adults, and senior cats of all personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have consistently trusted me to feed, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable administering medications, maintaining litter boxes, and keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I understand that every cat is different, and I take the time to make each one feel safe, calm, and cared for in their own environment.
“Caroline was awesome! It was our first time leaving our baby, and was constantly missing our baby, but Caroline constantly communicated to us and gave us peace of mind. She took extra effort to care for our baby and make sure she’s not too overwhelmed, everything we asked Caroline, she did! Though we wouldn’t want to leave our baby Eos again for a long vacation, we know exactly who we want to care and feed our baby again. Thank you Caroline :)”
“Allison was a great sitter and friend for Smitty for the three weeks we were out of town. There were many visits involved over this time period and Allison did a good job communicating with us about Smitty's various walks and play-times, what kind of mood he was in, whether he drank some water after play-time, and other info. She really cares about Smitty and enjoys the work. We highly recommend Allison!”
“Thanks to Amanda, I am able to relax on my travels! She communicates well and keeps me informed. She had to give meds to my six-month old kitten and handled it very well. She is dependable, trustworthy, and loves animals like they are her own.”
About: I have been watching my friends and neighbors cats for years and love checking in on their little friends and making sure they get playtime love and attention. I have 2 cats of my own. One of them has a special diet. I am happy to meet any cat where they are at.
“I came to Grand Rapids on a last-minute work thing and didn’t want to leave Roxy in the hotel alone for 4 to 6 hours in the evening. I reached out to a couple of folks on rover and Miranda was one of the first ones that replied and was able to take Roxy. This was my first time as a doggy dad leaving Rox with with somebody I didn’t know. We met Miranda at her house and after meeting her found that she is truly a really nice person that truly loves animals and made it easy for me to leave her there. Roxy took to her almost immediately. I picked Roxy up the next morning and everything was great. She’d been walked and had play time few times and she was her normal goofy happy self. Great job!”

“Beth was super loving and caring for my kittycat 😺 This was her first time with a cat, and she did great! Communication was ever present with pics to help me feel at ease😊”
“Sophia was quick to respond to a last minute request, communicative, professional and arrived on time. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy and well cared for during the visit.”

“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!!!”
About: We just recently started on Rover and are already loving it! We owned a sweet, energetic Alaskan Husky until our third son was born. Our boys were so good with her. We have more space now and are home all the time with a secure fenced yard. Ready to welcome some animal life back in! I just ask that your dog is comfortable around kids. Our boys are ages 3-7. As a homeschool family of 5 we’re pretty much always home. We are confident your pup will get the love and attention they need and truly feel at home away from home! We have a great fenced yard for dogs. No pets except two bunnies who live outside in secure hutches. Our boys love all animals and are taught to handle them gently, firm and respectfully. Your pup will get plenty of love, play, and potty opportunities :)
About: I grew up with a shetland sheepdog and medium haired house cat. As an adult I've walked large and small dogs of different breeds. I have boarded and pet sat at owners house with dogs that needed meds or had special needs. I currently work part-time Monday to Thursday. This leaves me with plenty of time to spend taking care of your dogs, whether walking or playing. I have a fenced yard and no animals of my own. If I need to crate (you have to supply) your dog, then my house has plenty of space.
“Gave my boy a wonderful active day. Lots of walks and boy was he tired out from the day. Lots of playing and attention. Thank you so much! Will definitely rebook with Samuel if we come back to this part of the state. Made our anniversary trip so easy knowing he was safe and well taken care of. ❤️”
About: I have pet sit, walked, ran, leash trained, and mentally stimulated dogs of all breeds since a kid. Each dog needs all of these things in different ways and I am here to figure that out to insure your pup and you get the best from me. I used to be under the LLC Dogs On the Run Grand Rapids, but life (two children, moving to Holland etc) put that on hold. I am now so excited to start giving Hollands furry family members what they need! I would love to meet you and work with you and your dog to give them the energy and visit or stay that they need! I have ran and walked dogs no matter the weather. Visits and Stays will come with pictures, arrival and departure time, a map of where we walked/ran, and any notes of our adventure! Send me a message and lets talk about your furry friend today! I am currently working, but that can be worked around your schedule and your pets needs. I am always willing to find the best scenario and schedule! For those going on walks and runs, we will work with what you use and what works best for your dog. All dogs are different. Also, what you want from your dog is different as well. If they need some leash training we can do that as well. My car is dog friendly, so if ball at the park is what they need, or a swim, I am down for that as well! Variety is the spice of life! For stays, I do have a dog of my own who is completely pet friendly, so of course our home is too! Any questions, Ask away :)
“Amber did a great job taking care of Riley and Henry. She agreed to watch my dogs on short notice and was very accommodating when I needed to extend their visit. Riley and Henry had a great time playing with her dogs too. Highly recommend her!”
“This was our dogs’ first road trip far from home and a bit last-minute. We needed somewhere for them to go for a few hours, so I looked for daycare centers, but none were open on Sat. or they required a visit in advance. We were stuck until I found Rover and reached out to Frances. She answered us right away and we were able to book a stay with her just a few days before our trip! She was caring, knowledgeable, and understanding about them being nervous. I felt very comfortable leaving our pups with her! Great experience!!!”
“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.”
“I was really nervous about leaving Chino with a non family member for the first time but Lauryn was so great about keeping me updated and sending pictures! I was very happy with her and would recommend her again :)”
“Ben was great! Our “Li’l Dude” came home happy and tired from an active day! Ben generously offered to run Li’l Dude back to our campground, saving us time and a drive! We are already planning our next booking with Ben while we are vacationing in the area! Thx!”
“Absolutely, the kindest family, and my dog fell in love with them. She took great portraits of my dog, too! I look forward to going back and I think my dog would love that too.”

I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins during weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I will plan my schedule carefully, so your pet receives dedicated attention and isn’t rushed. Whether you need consistent weekly visits or occasional coverage while traveling, I can accommodate most needs with advance notice. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I will follow your care instructions closely and maintain your pet’s normal routine to minimize stress. In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and attentive to security. I will pay close attention to behavior changes, ensure gates and doors are secure, and keep a calm, positive environment. You can trust that your pet will receive responsible, attentive care every visit.
About: I have a bernidoodle of my own, and I have dog-sat for other family members and neighbors. I am comfortable with all dog breeds and sizes. I am currently a Sophmore at Hope College. I love taking care of pets and would be more then happy to fit them into my routine. My schedule is open after 3pm, and I am open to schedule changes and to taking on multiple dogs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat their home with respect and follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible. During visits, I'll make sure your dog gets plenty of time outside for potty breaks, exercise, and fresh air, along with lots of attention. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I'll always follow your instructions and make sure your dog is happy and well looked after.
About: I’ve had pets in my house for a majority of my life and have spent that time helping to care for them. I have also been watching others pets for about three years now, including both cats and dogs. Tasks included feeding on a schedule, taking for walks / outside to go potty, cleaning/scooping the litter box, and of course making sure they’re safe and not getting into any trouble while you’re gone. I have hands on experience in watching after and caring for a terminally ill dog for about six months. Those tasks included changing his dressing (he had an open wound that refused to heal), giving medications on a schedule, and giving enrichment that he could enjoy with limited energy. I also have hands on experience with reactive dogs, so please know that I will love your reactive pup just as much. I can do basic training, but my favorite part of the job is showering the animals with love and attention. This is my full time job! I have a few side gigs that I work on remotely and can do from just about anywhere so long as I have WiFi access to communicate with my colleagues! I’m used to many kinds of temperaments, from “you stay in your corner and I’ll stay in mine” to “I need to be as close to you as possible at all times” and will respect your dogs needs. I prefer setting up a time before the sitting starts where I can just get to know the pet(s) and get an idea of their normal schedule. This way they can meet me while everyone is home so they feel most comfortable, and I’m not a complete stranger once I begin sitting or come over to let them out for a potty break.
About: Hi! I'm Sami, and I am THRILLED to meet your loved one. ME AS A SITTER: My number one priority while caring for your loved one is their comfort. I believe having patience and allowing your pet to make the first move is important when first establishing a routine or any sort of bond. Anything you or your loved one needs for our time together, I'm there for it all! I have always had a passion for animals and find it an absolute blessing to spend time with any and all. WHAT I CAN DO: I am comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels. This includes pets that need medication, special dietary restrictions, or even pets that don't like to be too close but just need a little company- I'm just happy to meet your pet no matter what they need! MY PET BACKGROUND: I have experience housesitting with dogs/cats for up to a week. In this time, I maintained the house, watered plants, fed both cats and dogs, took care of trash and mail, etc. My family has had up to 8 dogs at once, ranging from puppy to senior. Now, we currently have 3 dogs and even a pet rabbit. I found a passion for training pets/encouraging good behavior, which led me to teach my pup tricks like roll over, bang bang, dance, etc., and we both loved every minute! We also took in a stray feral cat (was stuck in a car hood, long story), and for the past few months I have successfully worked hard to make a connection and bond with her! I do also help care for the cat in my home in Indiana. I have given pets medication many times, including wound care, vet visits, and special feeding instructions. I currently work part-time at a restaurant, with my shift typically starting at 3pm. My schedule does tend to shift around, but on days I do work, I am flexible with when I can watch your loved one and am willing to visit as much as possible before and after work. However, when I'm not working, I am more than happy to spend as much time with your pet as possible/wanted. While in your home, I will be around your pet 24/7, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I love playing with pets but can also enforce rules and regulations set up for your pet with ease. I can handle crating, leashing, feeding, picking up messes, and more. If housesitting, I am happy to assist in pickup and general house upkeep, including trash night, collecting mail, dusting, etc.

My availability is very open especially going into the summer months. Although I may not be able to do overnight stays at this time, I can do later evenings and earlier mornings. I do have a fenced in backyard that I can accommodate your pup with! I also have a dog in my home who is very friendly and would love play if you allow it. If not I will keep them separate. I can take your dog out to a local trail or walk them in your neighborhood. With cats I would be vigilant in keeping them away from open doors unless allowed. I know they love to explore small spaces and I take extra precautions to keep my girl safe! I love getting to know all the unique personalities of different cats, I love a good cuddle as well as some fun playtime. I have a special place in my heart for senior kitties.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and lots of other animals, like lizards and birds, and I’ve always loved building bonds with them—it’s something that makes me feel really special 😌🐾 I work 12-hour shifts with a rotating schedule (3–4 days a week), and I’m hoping to keep busy on my days off. I always ask questions because owners know their pets best. I want to understand the dos and don’ts—some pets are allowed on furniture, others aren’t.

About: I’ve taken care of animals as long as I can remember, from cats and their kittens, to hamsters and Guinea pigs, squirrels, mice and of course dogs. I’ve had a few cats of my own and currently have an almost 9 year old pitbull and 10 year old cat. I also have experience with deaf animals (I had a beautiful deaf American bulldog Staffordshire terrier mix) and am very comfortable giving medications/shots. My dog is also reactive so I’m very familiar handling those kinds of situations. I’ve always thrived around animals and thoroughly enjoy taking care of and loving on as many as I can. I’m open to anything, walks, drop ins, and overnights in your home. If your pets are happy so am I! I’m currently working part time, so I have a very flexible schedule and I’m hoping to get as many hours with animals as I can get! I am only looking to go to others homes, my home is not big enough for a large crowd of animals unfortunately. I am more than happy to drive to/stay at others homes to take care of their fur babies. I treat every animal like they are my own and follow owners guidelines very closely
About: I am a reliable, caring, trustworthy & high spirited lover of all things 4 legged and furry. While you are away, I will maintain your animals happiness by giving it the utmost love & compassion. I also love to encourage the zoomies. Whenever family or friends needed someone to watch their animals, I've always offered to help them out. Have been pet sitting for about 9 years on and off just because I simply like to help out & be around animals. Special skills include working with/understanding animals body language, dog training/handling skills, having an immense amount of patience & a substantial amount of empathy. I just really genuinely love animals (: Week wise; I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your animals. And for weekends, they are always free’d up . In clients home, depending on whichever instructions given; I am able to comfort them in home if they are a homebody dog. If needed to be created I can do that. If they enjoy a lot of stimulation & activity I can cater to those needs as well & can take your dog out and about for a day on the town.
About: I am experienced with animals ranging from xlarge to extra small, animals with attitude and animals that just want love. I am experienced with dog body language as well as basic training. I have experience administering oral medicines, ointments, and bandages. I am experienced with animal overnights, boardings, and walking I am a full time online college student and looking for a part time job as I just moved here from California so currently I am available mon-Sunday all hours of the day! I currently do not have any animals and due to just moving it will stay that way which is why I would love to care for others animals

“Christopher did an incredible job caring for Hachi. He kept me updated with messages and photos, and it was so reassuring to see Hachi happy, bonding with Jasi and the rest of his family. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to others looking for a reliable sitter!”

“Brittany was so amazing with our dog! She sent lots of pictures (which we really appreciated) and was very communicative over text with updates! Our dog had a blast and we would 100% leave our dog with Brittany again!”
“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 :)”

“I am completely at ease when we leave our german shorthair pointer with this family. We get plenty of updates and it looks like Daisy gets plenty of playtime with their pet and plenty of attention from the humans. The second time we brought her there she ran right up to the house like she remembered the good memories she made there the last time.”
“Oakley loves staying with Lauren! He loves being able to run around and chill in the yard with the other low energy dogs. We love Lauren because she’s always on top of pictures of our boy for us!”
“Sofia provided day care for my two year old dog prior to my booking a week of boarding for him. She has a large fenced in back yard with shade trees and an 8 year old dog who helped to entertain my dog. He came home content but tired from playing outside. I will be comfortable leaving him for a week with Sofia and family.”
About: I grew up with a shetland sheepdog and medium haired house cat. As an adult I've walked large and small dogs of different breeds. I have boarded and pet sat at owners house with dogs that needed meds or had special needs. I currently work part-time Monday to Thursday. This leaves me with plenty of time to spend taking care of your dogs, whether walking or playing. I have a fenced yard and no animals of my own. If I need to crate (you have to supply) your dog, then my house has plenty of space.
“Monique is amazing! Our fur baby looked like she had fun playing with Monique’s pup and spending time with her family! Monique even helped me out by picking up and dropping our pup off at the end of the week.”
