“Beth took such good care of our two dogs and was great about providing photos and updates each day. We always felt like they were in great hands and her fenced in yard was perfect for them to run around and burn some energy.”
“Michael and his family provided excellent care for our dogs. We have a dog who is almost 17 years old and he was very attentive to his needs. Our younger dog made great friends with his dog, Chili. She had a great time. Michael provided excellent photos and daily communication. I highly recommend him.”
“Frances was great with my dog. She had multiple dogs throughout the stay and so my dog was never bored and played a lot. She did one update a day but usually had 2-3+ pictures with her updates. Would book again if I was in the area.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
About: I’ve cared for, trained, and loved animals for 40+ years and would be happy to care for yours while you are away. I know how important check ins are so you can be sure your fur baby is well & happy! I work from home most days so my schedule is flexible and allows me to be home with your fur baby! My home is comfortable and pet friendly and if they are sun seekers I have a great deck for them to lounge on. I have a fenced in back yard with room to roam and live in a safe cul-de-sac neighborhood perfect for dog walking! Couches are not off limits in my house 😊
“I had such a great experience with Sylvia! She was very attentive, kept me updated with pictures and videos, and was flexible with timing. She even took my dog to the beach and went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and well cared for. My pup came home clean, loved, and spoiled. She was so sweet to my dog, and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We left our dog with Derek for 4 days and the experience was great, and I highly recommend him. Derek is timely and responsive in communication. He also provided updates and photos during the stay. He was able to accommodate our last minute booking. Best of all, he is clearly good with dogs. I watched our dog interact with him at the initial drop off and at the pickup and I had no fears.”
“Brenda was very good with our Morkie, Dickens. He loved being able to run outside in her large fenced yard and her snuggles were awesome. We would definitely use Brenda again because Dickens came home a happy, contented and tired little guy! Great communication too with photos included.”
About: I am a mother of 6 children, plus 2 dogs (a silver lab and a pointer mix), 1 cat, 2 fish, and 2 guinea pigs. I have taken care of pets since I was young. When I was a kid we had dogs, cats, and even a raccoon and baby skunk throughout the years. I fostered cats and kittens through the humane society for many years. Once my own family grew and got busier I stopped doing that and adopted 2 cats of our own. Myself and my family will treat your dog(s) like our own! If your dog likes to sleep in a bed with their human, I have many willing participants who would love to do this for you! We have a fully fenced in backyard with a lot of dog toys (thanks to Barkbox!) and our kids love to take dogs for walks! I am home most of the time so I am able to provide lots of hands on care and attention. I am a registered nurse who works very part time, so I am usually home. I am 100% willing and capable of administering medications in any form, injectable included.
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 :)
“Anne was great with Murphy! He stayed for a week and I received picture and status updates daily. Murphy was well taken care of and he loved playing with their dog as well. I would definitely request Anne to watch Murphy anytime we needed a sitter. She is highly recommended!”
“Clara was amazing. Our dogs love to go to our home tons of places to run very clean and spacious crates that our dogs were actually able to sleep together. Please check it out. It is so worth it. Thank you Clara .”
“Kaylee was an amazing sitter for my two dogs. During their stay, one of my dogs got an ear infection and she was willing to bring him to his vet so he could be seen which isn’t close to her house. She sent daily updates and had great communication. I would highly recommend her as a sitter for your pups.”

About: Hi! I am the owner of a senior kitty with chronic kidney disease who requires extra special care and occasional medication administration. I have also cared for several kittens and elderly cats throughout the years. I am an animal lover but I have a special place in my heart for cats.
“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!”
“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😊”
“Taylor was enthusiastic and excited to spend time with my kitty. It’s always relieving knowing your pets are receiving love when you’re gone. I definitely will be asking her for help in the future!”
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!
“Emily is able to check in on my pet on both Christmas eve and the day of Christmas, and was very flexible on time. She takes instructions very responsibly and was great with my skittish cat.”
About: I currently work the doggy day camp at Petsmart. I have worked with the Humane Animal Treatment society and Bronston Animal Shelter with socialization and training. I had dogs growing up and trained them and cared for them. I have even walked dogs for the people around my neighborhood. Also, I have a dog of my own. I do have a puppy that is 4 years old, but he is very friendly. I live near a park so the dogs can run/play and I know my puppy would love to join if allowed. I’m currently looking for a job, so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend. I am available any time of the day. I keep my puppy on a strict schedule. Lots of time to play, go for walks, and training times. I feed him around 9:30 am and 7 pm

“Mac totally enjoyed a spa day with Londa and family. He played ball in a spacious yard and lounged on their pool deck while the family enjoyed their time by the pool.

About: New to Rover? Save $20 on your first booking with me: Code: ELIZAE67522 I have owned pets for over 20 years and taken care of them like they were family—because they are! I've opened my home to cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, fish, reptiles, ferrets, and rats over the years and loved them all! I've managed vet visits and administered medications to senior cats, including injections and oral medications. I have experience fostering sick cats for a local pet society, giving them a safe environment and nursing them back to good health! I particularly excel at senior animal care for cats and dogs. While I love to play with pets who have energy to burn, I'm happy to meet older and calmer pets where they are and at their energy level if you are looking for a quiet and relaxing sitter. I love animals and would be thrilled to make sure they have a happy time while you're away. As a mother of three and a massive animal lover, I couldn't be more qualified (and more excited!) to take care of your pets. I am self-employed and work remotely. Because of this, I have a very flexible schedule and can plan my work around pet sitting with ease! In your home, I can take care of your animals, plants, collect mail, and do light cleaning! I have room in my home for any smaller animals in an enclosure, like reptiles, rabbits, guinea pigs, and more! If you prefer separation from other pets, our large extra bedroom at night so they're not left with my pets unsupervised (or at all, depending on your preferences!)

“Kaylyn was such a life saver. She responded quickly to my request and kept in constant communication with me throughout the day as I was visiting the area. It made my trip so stress free knowing I’ll have someone to watch my dog while I’m out. She made the effort to meet up to pick up and drop off at a convenient and safe location to handle my dog. She sent pictures to me and all I could see were big smiles from my pup. Would definitely recommend anyone in the area to have Kaylyn watch your pup too!”

“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!”

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.

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.
“I was out of town for a week and Sarah really went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were taken care of! She took them on daily walks and spent time with them at the dog park, and kept me well informed on how they were doing. I would definitely recommend Sarah to watch your fur babies!”
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 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.

Prioritizing their safety while having fun! And always treating pets like family!
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I also started working as a dog walker/ “adopter” when I was 9 years old. A local dog store teamed with the harbor humane society to help get dogs adopted in saugatuck over the weekends. And I was the one to care for them and try to find them a home! We placed over 200 dogs and kept them until they found a home! I myself have a dog, 5 chickens and a cat. All of whom I love dearly! Unfortunately my dog doesn’t play well with others so I need to get my new pet fix outside of my home. I currently work full time so it would be difficult for me to tend to my own pets and others during the week days. But weekends are wide open! I wake up (my dog wakes me up) around 6 most days, feed and let everyone out and depending on the weather typically stay outside with them all day. Morning and evening feedings and potty breaks every hour or so is standard when I’m home and can’t be outside. I have a lot of experience with all sorts of animal behavior so I can easily handle it all! Whether it’s walking a dog that pulls or reacts to squirrels, I have no concerns. I also have personal experience with aggressive pets and pets that don’t stay in the yard. I know from personal experience the importance to follow directions provided by a pet owner.
About: Glacier may not be dog friendly, but I sure am! Though I’m not new to caring for animals, I do need to build up a client base. That’s why my price is so cheap! I have grown up with animals of all kinds my entire life and take pride in the care and compassion I give to animals. I am detail-oriented and knowledgeable about pet body language. I have a flexible work schedule. Let me know what time works best for you and I would love to fit you into my schedule! Existing amongst animals is one of the things that brings me the greatest joy in life. I believe every animal deserves to be happy, safe, and free and lend a lot of time working towards animal liberation.

About: I have my own dog at home and I am always asked to take care of my grandparents dog everytime they're away. I love dogs and always want them to be comfortable in my care. I currently work part time at a custodial company and I babysit at night as well. My work schedule is very flexible, it is a four hour shift and I have time in between then to have a pet care job.

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.

“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
About: I’ve cared for, trained, and loved animals for 40+ years and would be happy to care for yours while you are away. I know how important check ins are so you can be sure your fur baby is well & happy! I work from home most days so my schedule is flexible and allows me to be home with your fur baby! My home is comfortable and pet friendly and if they are sun seekers I have a great deck for them to lounge on. I have a fenced in back yard with room to roam and live in a safe cul-de-sac neighborhood perfect for dog walking! Couches are not off limits in my house 😊
“I had such a great experience with Sylvia! She was very attentive, kept me updated with pictures and videos, and was flexible with timing. She even took my dog to the beach and went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and well cared for. My pup came home clean, loved, and spoiled. She was so sweet to my dog, and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We left our dog with Derek for 4 days and the experience was great, and I highly recommend him. Derek is timely and responsive in communication. He also provided updates and photos during the stay. He was able to accommodate our last minute booking. Best of all, he is clearly good with dogs. I watched our dog interact with him at the initial drop off and at the pickup and I had no fears.”
About: I am a mother of 6 children, plus 2 dogs (a silver lab and a pointer mix), 1 cat, 2 fish, and 2 guinea pigs. I have taken care of pets since I was young. When I was a kid we had dogs, cats, and even a raccoon and baby skunk throughout the years. I fostered cats and kittens through the humane society for many years. Once my own family grew and got busier I stopped doing that and adopted 2 cats of our own. Myself and my family will treat your dog(s) like our own! If your dog likes to sleep in a bed with their human, I have many willing participants who would love to do this for you! We have a fully fenced in backyard with a lot of dog toys (thanks to Barkbox!) and our kids love to take dogs for walks! I am home most of the time so I am able to provide lots of hands on care and attention. I am a registered nurse who works very part time, so I am usually home. I am 100% willing and capable of administering medications in any form, injectable included.
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 :)
“Anne was great with Murphy! He stayed for a week and I received picture and status updates daily. Murphy was well taken care of and he loved playing with their dog as well. I would definitely request Anne to watch Murphy anytime we needed a sitter. She is highly recommended!”
“Clara was amazing. Our dogs love to go to our home tons of places to run very clean and spacious crates that our dogs were actually able to sleep together. Please check it out. It is so worth it. Thank you Clara .”
“Kaylee was an amazing sitter for my two dogs. During their stay, one of my dogs got an ear infection and she was willing to bring him to his vet so he could be seen which isn’t close to her house. She sent daily updates and had great communication. I would highly recommend her as a sitter for your pups.”
“My husband and I had to go out of town for a quick sat-sun trip and Kristina made us feel so comfortable leaving Mabel with her. She shared several photos throughout the weekend and we appreciated the one on one care she gave to our puppy. We hope to book with her again in the future! 😄”
“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!”
