“Christoper was fantastic with our two dogs. We use rover regularly and he has been one of the best so far. We had to book last minute for a trip to GA and he was nothing but helpful. We got regular updates and felt like the dogs were in great hands while we were miles away. They came back to us happy and in probably in better shape than when we left them. Highly recommend Christopher and his kids.”
“Pamela always does an excellent job with Leia! She goes above and beyond to create a welcoming, warm, safe and fun environment for her. And she always comes home with a special treat!”
“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!”
“Derek did a great job taking care of my dogs while I was out of town. He kept me updated with a couple of pictures, which was really appreciated, and I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups”
“Theresa was wonderful and took great care of our pup! We even had some delays traveling, and Theresa was very flexible and communicative. Highly recommend and will definitely board with her again!”
“Jacob and his family did a great job watching Freya! She was a bit more anxious than usual cause we had been traveling a lot, and they did a great job making sure she was comfortable and taken care of. You can tell that it's a dog loving family, and Jacob is really putting in the effort. Katherine's daily updates were also much appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Frances and her husband are so kind! This was our first ever boarding experience so we were a bit hesitant going into it, but Frances made us feel very comfortable the whole time. Our dogs came home tired and very happy. We will be using them again!!”
“Dan was amazing with our dog Mayfield, he was flexible and accommodating with our changing schedule. We asked him to bring our dog to the beach for wedding photos and he helped make our special day complete. Dan sent regular updates and lots of photos. We could tell Mayfield really loved being with Dan and would love to stay with him again.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Vinnie was very well cared for and had so much fun socializing with the other campers! Terry treats his visitors as his own, it’s so sweet! It was especially fun to receive daily pics of Vinnie while we were enjoying a family vacation! Definitely bringing Vinnie back to visit his new friends!”
“Daina & Samuel treated our pups so kindly! They gave them daily walks and plenty of playtime! My babies came back very happy. I am so thankful for Daina & Sam's love for animals as they are very patient, understanding and loving!”
“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!”
“My baby was very happy with Miss Sylvia. She sends pics and videos and keeps in touch. She is flexible when flights do what they do. Have rebooked her twice already and plan to keep using her in the future.”
“Amber was very welcoming to Rory & Delilah and treated them well! She has a huge yard and koi pond that entertained Delilah for hours, and Rory loved marking his territory on all the trees. I would definitely book again if we come through this area!”
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 :)

“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!”

“Caroline is great and would definitely recommend her! She’s been a huge help, the animals loves her, and she does amazing job and has been happy to help me out in anyways possible.”
“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!”

I’ve also fostered puppies through Unleashed Love Pet Rescue here in West Michigan, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. Animals have always been a part of my life—I’ve had a dog for as long as I can remember—and I truly understand the comfort, companionship, and emotional support they bring. I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether you need drop-in visits, daily walks, or extended stays, you can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and respectful of your pet’s routine.

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 need a little company- I'm just happy to meet your pet no matter what they need! MY CAT BACKGROUND: I'm currently taking care of and slowly bonding with a feral calico cat my family rescued from a car hood, and it's already taught me so much about patience and trust with cats that need a lot more than your typical attention. I have been taking care of her for a few months now and can't wait to continue to grow with her. Before this, I housesat for family friends for over a week, during which I cared for their 3 cats and 1 dog, feeding twice a day and making sure they got plenty of playtime throughout the day. This also included me caring for their house and plants, doing general upkeep throughout the week. I also have experience caring for a sweet but playful grey tabby in my home in Indiana. While shared with 5 adults, holiday breaks were spent just me and the cat, which is honestly where my favorite memories of us come from! I have given pets medication many times, including wound care, vet visits, and special feeding instructions. You can see pictures of my grey tabby in his cone after he got fixed (and unfortunately had to be on antibiotics) on my page!
“Really great communication. Katherine is flexible, kind and honest. Took great care of our sick kitty by administering insulin injections. Really great all around. Will book again.”
“Brenna was amazing with our cat. She went above and beyond taking care of him and our house. My cat loved her and my mind was at ease while away knowing he was getting love and care. She gave very detailed updates as well as lots of pictures and always responded quickly. I highly recommend Brenna and will book her again in the future! Thank you!!”

“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!!!”

“Frances and her family are amazing! We are from out of town and wanted a few days that we could go explore and have fun and not worry about the pup. Karl was tired when we picked him up and was wagging his tail happy to see them when we dropped him off. She was extremely flexible with drop off and pick up times and she kept us updated with photos of him and his other doggie friends. My only complaint is that she doesn't live out by us so we could use her all the time ?”
“Samantha has completely exceeded our expectations and has been so wonderful to our puppy! She watched Felix every day for us this week and has been beyond helpful/flexible and amazing with our work schedules. She keeps me well informed and updated throughout the day and sends the CUTEST photos. So cute I’m going to have to get some of them framed. I know he’s been walked and has had sufficient play time just by how tired he is when coming home. With him being a puppy, he chews and gets into things he isn’t supposed to. I can tell from Samantha’s updates that she is patient and works with him on behavioral issues. We feel so fortunate to have found Samantha and are excited to take Felix back next week!”

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life, with hands-on experience supporting pets through all life stages and needs. Whether your pet requires medication management, specialized diet adherence, mobility assistance, or extra patience due to age or disability, I approach each animal as an individual deserving attentive, compassionate care. I don’t just follow instructions, I notice subtle changes in behavior, anticipate needs, and communicate proactively with owners so you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I am currently working part time as a painter, part time with Rover, and volunteering for Harbor Humane, but worry not. I can make my schedule completely open for any pet care needs. I will rarely be unavailable. I prioritize your pet’s routine and comfort above all. Whether that means leash walks through your neighborhood, supervised backyard play in their familiar space, or respecting crating schedules you’ve established, I adapt to what works for your pet, not what’s easiest for me. I ensure fresh water is always available, meals are served on time, and any special instructions (door security, alarm codes, plant watering) are followed exactly. Beyond the basics, I make time for real connection like belly rubs, play sessions, or just calm companionship for anxious pets. You’ll come home to a pet who felt cared for, not just looked after.
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.

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.

About: I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood and enjoy a peaceful home environment. I work, stay active in my church, and love winding down with a good book or movie. I’m down-to-earth and will treat your dog like family. My daughter, who’s now abroad, used to dog sit and encouraged me to try it myself—knowing how much I love dogs, even though I’m not ready to have one full-time. I often helped her with dog sitting before she left, and truly enjoyed the companionship. It would be a blessing to care for your pet and offer you peace of mind. I’m flexible, reliable, and would have a great time making sure your dog feels safe and loved. I work hybrid, which means your pet will have plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I love taking regular breaks to go on walks, give belly rubs, or just relax with a furry friend nearby. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate feeding routines, bathroom breaks, and any special care your pet may need. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your dog to relax comfortably. While I don’t have a backyard, I take regular walks in safe, green areas nearby and always supervise outdoor time. I follow your care instructions closely, including feeding, medications, and routines, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos. Whether in my home or yours, I provide calm, attentive care to help your pet feel secure and loved.

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: 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. I make sure to follow the same rules while caring for them so their environment stays consistent and comfortable with me.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a young girl, about 20 years now! I’m honored to meet new animals and gain their trust, showing them love, kindness, and fun! Animals really are so important to me, I’m a devout vegetarian and animal-advocate, with hopes to open a no-kill rescue in the future for all types of animals. I am a graduate student who works part time from home. My weekly routine is flexible and ready to fit your needs! Whatever works for you! I’ll care for your pet like my own. I go on long walks, know how to train dogs, and can take care of special needs.

“Christoper was fantastic with our two dogs. We use rover regularly and he has been one of the best so far. We had to book last minute for a trip to GA and he was nothing but helpful. We got regular updates and felt like the dogs were in great hands while we were miles away. They came back to us happy and in probably in better shape than when we left them. Highly recommend Christopher and his kids.”

“Jacob and his family did a great job watching Freya! She was a bit more anxious than usual cause we had been traveling a lot, and they did a great job making sure she was comfortable and taken care of. You can tell that it's a dog loving family, and Jacob is really putting in the effort. Katherine's daily updates were also much appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Frances and her husband are so kind! This was our first ever boarding experience so we were a bit hesitant going into it, but Frances made us feel very comfortable the whole time. Our dogs came home tired and very happy. We will be using them again!!”
“Dan was amazing with our dog Mayfield, he was flexible and accommodating with our changing schedule. We asked him to bring our dog to the beach for wedding photos and he helped make our special day complete. Dan sent regular updates and lots of photos. We could tell Mayfield really loved being with Dan and would love to stay with him again.”
“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!”
“Daina & Samuel treated our pups so kindly! They gave them daily walks and plenty of playtime! My babies came back very happy. I am so thankful for Daina & Sam's love for animals as they are very patient, understanding and loving!”

“Amber was very welcoming to Rory & Delilah and treated them well! She has a huge yard and koi pond that entertained Delilah for hours, and Rory loved marking his territory on all the trees. I would definitely book again if we come through this area!”
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 :)
“Breslin had a wonderful time with Christina and Micheal! They provided consistent updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos of our little guy having fun. They treated Breslin like one of their own and we truly appreciate that. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter! Thanks again!”
“Marigold and Darla kept our Westie for two nights. This was his first stay and they cared for him like one of their own. Each day, they sent a few pictures to reassure us that our doggie was happy. We will definitely use them again.”
