I even have a new picture to add to my "favorites" pile! I'm grateful for awesome people like Diana and will definitely try to book with her next trip. 👍👍”
“5 stars! So thankful for Amber who took our reservation at the very last minute when another booking was cancelled! Amber was easy to communicate with and she sent updates frequently. She was very accommodating with my 3 legged German Shepherd and I so appreciate that! I wasn't sure he would want to come home as he attached to her so well during his stay. She even sent him home with toys that he enjoyed while he was with her. How sweet! Will not hesitate to use her again. Thank you!!”

Kira seems excited to be there when I drop her off and always comes home happy and healthy.”
“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.”
“Sam was great! Larry had an awesome time hanging out with them. They were very professional, responsive and caring. They treated Larry like he was one of their own. When future needs arise we will for sure contact Sam again.”
“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!”
“When we found ourselves in a pickle, we turned to Rover to find a trustworthy, dog educated person to watch our female GSD Stiorra. Not only were we searching last minute but we needed someone who was comfortable and had experience with females in heat. Ofcourse our girl would go into heat when we have nonrefundable tickets. Haha! I put our situation out to a couple different sitters on Rover. Kaylee was the first to respond and had such enthusiasm that I knew she was our person! She assured me that she had experience with females in heat and with doggy diapers. We did a meet and greet and the rest is history! Stiorra had a blast. Kaylee treated her as if she was her own. And Stiorra found a new friend in Oliver the great dane. I can't express how thankful I am to have found Kaylee. We look forward to having her watch Stiorra again!”
About: I have taken care of animas my whole life. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and cats. Comfortable giving medications if they are needed. I am home all day Thursday through Sunday.

If I am doing drop by visits for pets, your home will be treated with respect and your pet will be taken care of appropriately.

“Kate is very conscientious and dependable. I’ve booked her in the past and will hire her any time I need a sitter for my two senior cats. They’re very shy, but she was able to draw them out for pets and attention. They love her!”
“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!”

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!
“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😊”
“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!!”

“Mike took great care of my girl for the day! She was able to run around & play with new friends and then rest in the home without needing a crate. I can tell he treats all of his clients like family.”
“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!!!”
“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!”

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 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!

“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. ❤️”
“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 :)”
“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!!!”

“I am so happy I found this family that truly lives Gizzy. I went on my first three day trip away from Gizzy, and Shannon and family took her in. It was perfect. So grateful for this family.”
“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: As much as we want to bring our pets everywhere with us sometimes, we can’t. But that shouldn’t mean your pet isn’t living their best life possible. I can check in on your pet for some company, pets and play time, treats, meals, water, and a walk. I can also do anything else they may need. My goal is to give your pet a better day and give you a peace of mind knowing your pet is happy. I grew up on a farm with all animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, and horses. I was in a dog club growing up and learned basic dog training skills. Over the years I’ve cared for puppies and senior dogs needing special assistance and medications. I’ve helped care for multiple animals and hope to have the opportunity to care for yours too. I’m working part time in (human) healthcare. As much as I love people, I want to spend more time with animals on my days off. I work every Monday and Wednesday and am busy Saturday most of the time. My schedule changes once in a while but this is the general availability. I am mostly available morning and afternoon until about 3pm. Please ask for any specific times though anytime and I’ll see if it ends up working out. Thanks! 😊 My goal is to make sure your dog is as well cared for as if you were there yourself. I can do what you request. I can feed, water, potty break, medication administration, play time and pets, or go for a walk. I can leave them out or crate when I leave.

About: My first job at 12 was dog walking/sitting but I have been a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with dogs and adopted my cat about 8 years ago. I have cared for both young and elderly dogs/cats as well as those with special needs and medical conditions. I am currently a stay at home mom with my five year old son. 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 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: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life! Not only my own dogs, but friends and neighbors dogs as well. I love animals and they love me. I am flexible and can adapt to serve your pets needs. I have great attention to detail and care for pets in a timely manner, feeding and walking consistently according to their normal schedule to avoid disrupting their routine. I know how tough it is to leave your pets, but I will give them love and care and send as many pictures as you’d like throughout their time with me. I am a grad student and I would be happy to add caring for your pet into my day or week. I have time to let your pet out about every 4 hours. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to accommodate any special requests. I groomed my golden doodle and gave him all his haircuts for several years. I’d be happy to groom your dog too! I will do my best to adjust to feed and walk or play with your dog at the time they are used to do their routine isn’t disturbed.

About: Hi! I’m Natalie, a pre-veterinary student at Hope College with a passion for providing safe, loving, and reliable care for your pets. I have experience working in multiple veterinary offices and have spent years pet sitting dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. My background has given me experience understanding animal behavior, recognizing individual needs, and providing attentive care for every pet I work with. I am comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, large and small breeds, and pets with specific routines or medical needs. I also have experience administering medications and making sure pets receive the attention and care they need while their owners are away. My goal is to make your pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind. I love sending updates and photos so you can feel connected while you’re away! I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. Feel free to reach out with any questions!! I currently have a full time serving job and am a student so this is something that I do on the side! I am still pretty available and can cater to the needs of my clients. Since I do live with roommates I prefer to go to my clients houses instead of bringing them to my house! I can accommodate pretty easily though if needed.
About: I've cared for all breeds and sizes of cats, dogs and various other creatures in my life since I was a child. I am trauma informed, science backed, and consent based in everything I do. I am force free/fear free. I don’t use any aversives with any animal. I follow the most up to date animal science and firmly believe that through positive reinforcement and giving animals agency to opt in or out of most situations is the best way to be in relationship with them. I have been caring for animals professionally since 2019, and am very passionate about animal care and am excited to get to know you and your fur babes! My first love was a husky mix named Dutchess. I was a rough and tumble three-year-old and she looked like a furry loaf of bread with rolled up newspapers for legs, who never let me out of her sight until the day she crossed over the rainbow bridge. And thus began my love affair with pretty much all animals. Each pet has their own unique personality and style. I adapt to your pet's needs and wants. If they want cuddles, if they want space, if they want to run around in the back yard and play catch or tug-o-war then that is what we are going to do! My aim is to make them and you, happy with the stellar care they are being given. Animals have always been an integral part of my life, and I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to love and care for them and provide for my own family as well. <3 Animal care and companionship is my life. I work with animals multiple times a day everyday of the week to ensure they get all the enrichment, exercise, attention, and love they want and need. Trusting me with your home and pets is a big deal. Rest assured I will communicate regularly with pictures, videos and text updates throughout our stay together so you can feel at ease with the care of your fur babies.
About: I have loved animals and been around them my whole life. I had a dog growing up, and have always wanted to take care of any animals that I could. Now, I live with 2 cats thats I originally fostered from about 13 weeks. Even though I only have cats of my own, I’m very much a dog person as well. Im super active and would love to take dogs for walks, burn some energy outdoors, or just spend some time socializing with pets. I have years of experience handling cats and dogs in both a shelter/intense environment and a home. I currently work a very flexible part time nanny gig. This leaves my weeks very open for pet care as well as full availability on weekends. This varies, but I always make sure to communicate effectively to know the animals needs and make sure they are met. Safety is my number one concern always. If you ever have a question or concern, you may always message me.
About: Hi there! My Theo passed away last summer, so I’m using Rover as a way to get some time with pets again (as well as getting in steps). I can easily help throughout all hours of the workday and over the weekend! ❤️ thank u for trusting me and letting me get in some fur baby love❤️ I do also have experience with elderly dogs (seizures, blind, deaf, falling, comfort, etc), as well as raised my own Pom from when he was a puppy. I work from home so I can easily help throughout all hours of the day, over the weekend, or any evening! Just let me know, ❤️ thank u so much I have experience as a dog owner as well as countless weekends cat-sitting! Going for walks, playing, feeding, check-ups. Anything you’d like done and can provide photos and feedback consistently!

“Beth was very sweet and friendly! Super helpful and happy to have my 13 year old girl Sage. Her house is clean and quiet and relaxing for my old girl, which I really appreciated! Very helpful that she has a fenced in yard. I will be definitely be sending Sage to Beth's again!”
“Leia loved staying with Pamela! Pamela was excellent at communication before the stay and during, sending daily pictures and updates. She had a warm and inviting home and you could feel her love and care for dogs. She even sent Leia home with some homemade dog treats! We will definitely book her for future stays!”
“Micheal & his family were wonderful to Ripley! He was kept busy and given lots of love; Ripley’s Velcro personality was satisfied. Will be using Michael again - great care giver.”
“Frances was amazing with our pup Roxy! She sent regular updates with photos and we could tell Roxy was being well cared for. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!!”
“Katherine and her family were AMAZING! They kept us posted and the communication was excellent. Our dog Nala had a really good time and definitely will bring her back to Katherine next time!!”
“Really impressed with Diana and my dog Dexter is smitten with her. I received daily updates (told from Dexter's perspective, which is kinda cute) including pictures and a video each day. I even have a new picture to add to my "favorites" pile! I'm grateful for awesome people like Diana and will definitely try to book with her next trip. 👍👍”
“5 stars! So thankful for Amber who took our reservation at the very last minute when another booking was cancelled! Amber was easy to communicate with and she sent updates frequently. She was very accommodating with my 3 legged German Shepherd and I so appreciate that! I wasn't sure he would want to come home as he attached to her so well during his stay. She even sent him home with toys that he enjoyed while he was with her. How sweet! Will not hesitate to use her again. Thank you!!”
“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.”
“Sylvia is such a blessing. She was extremely communicative and caring for our dog! She took him on last minute over the holiday and we couldn’t be happier with finding her! Thank you so much Sylvia, we appreciate you so much and look forward to booking with you again next time.”
“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.”
“Sam was great! Larry had an awesome time hanging out with them. They were very professional, responsive and caring. They treated Larry like he was one of their own. When future needs arise we will for sure contact Sam again.”
“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!”
“When we found ourselves in a pickle, we turned to Rover to find a trustworthy, dog educated person to watch our female GSD Stiorra. Not only were we searching last minute but we needed someone who was comfortable and had experience with females in heat. Ofcourse our girl would go into heat when we have nonrefundable tickets. Haha! I put our situation out to a couple different sitters on Rover. Kaylee was the first to respond and had such enthusiasm that I knew she was our person! She assured me that she had experience with females in heat and with doggy diapers. We did a meet and greet and the rest is history! Stiorra had a blast. Kaylee treated her as if she was her own. And Stiorra found a new friend in Oliver the great dane. I can't express how thankful I am to have found Kaylee. We look forward to having her watch Stiorra again!”
About: I have taken care of animas my whole life. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and cats. Comfortable giving medications if they are needed. I am home all day Thursday through Sunday. The days that I do work, there is still time set aside for each pet after I arrive home. During the warmer weather, we typically spend lots of time outside. I have a fenced in yard. I do own 3 medium-large sized dogs that are great with other dogs. I do also have a cat and a toddler. I make sure that the toddler is never left alone with the animals. If I am doing drop by visits for pets, your home will be treated with respect and your pet will be taken care of appropriately.
“Thank you Derek for taking good care of Charlie! He was worn out. I was super nervous leaving him as being a lab he is a strong and hyper dog but you put me at ease in your ability to handle him. Thanks again!”
“Repeat customer here. Goose loves hanging out with Christina, Michael and the family! They take great care of Goose and always send regular updates so I never have to worry while I’m traveling for work.”
“Our third time returning for a long stay, and Murphy is happier each time he goes for a getaway at Clara’s! She is so accommodating, warm, and kind, and her spot is perfect for pups.”
“This was our second time having Anne care for our dog at her house while we were out of town for a week. Anne is so personable and you can tell she really loves caring for these dogs and takes the trust families are giving her seriously. I appreciate how laid back Anne is, adjusting to each dog's own personality and quirks :) Our dog gets a little home sick but I always know Anne is loving on him as if he were her own and sends us updates and pictures frequently to put us at ease. We will definitely continue to book with Anne in the future!”
