“Christine and her crew were incredible and did a great job. Thor came home exhausted and without any bad habits (begging from the table, attempting to get on furniture, etc). Great communication before and throughout the stay. Thor loved his time with Cornelius and is looking forward to his next visit.”
“I had to leave town last weekend and decided to see what boarding my dog Ding with somebody from Rover might be like. I hit the jackpot when I decided to reach out to Roman and Suzanne. Right from the get go they were extremely responsive and had the answers to all my questions. And so friendly! We did a quick meet and greet at their home and I instantly knew I’d be trusting my guy with them. Just really wonderful people and they clearly love the animals they take care of. And they sure took care of mine! I got lots of pictures and updates over the weekend, and Ding looked so happy in all of them. He really hit it off with their dog Sonic! The weekend flew by and after an easy pickup (they really made everything so easy!) Ding and I were back home. He totally crashed out after a fun weekend with his new friends. Cant recommend Roman and Suzanne and family enough! I’ll definitely be reaching out to for another upcoming weekend trip :) Thanks so much!”
“Katlynn and her family were so great! They took great care of our 2 goldens and sent lots of updates! The whole process was made super easy and stress free! Immediate responses to any questions I had. We will definitely be using Katlynn again!”
“Anne and her family were so kind to watch my pup Dune last minute after our original dog sitting plans for vacation fell through. We did an initial met/greet to ensure our dogs got along and Dune loved playing with the other pups. Communication with daily updates and photos was awesome! Kenneling overnight. We were so grateful for your flexiblity and help! Thank you all for taking such great care of my boy :)”
“We are very pleased to find Julie for our boarding needs. She received plenty of exercise during her stay being able to play with other pets. Already scheduled for next trip😊”
“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.”
“Janelle was fantastic and knows how hard it is to leave behind your family member. She was very reassuring and sent us photos and wonderful messages everyday. We could not have asked for a better caretaker for our pup!! She had fun adventures with their dogs and got plenty of play time outdoors. Janelle went above and beyond and helped ensure all things went smoothly. We are so grateful for the care she gave our dog and we couldn’t be happier!”
“Wow, what can I say… Jill ( & Sunny :))was amazing with our 4 yr old yellow lab, Callie! She was so loving and all about making a great experience for Callie. Her home was perfect and such a nice setting back near a nice river with a large yard with a fenced in area as well. Our dog could use her doggy door (once she got the hang of it ;) )and go outside to the fenced in yard and play/potty/whatever ….as she needed. Jill was great about taking walks, letting her swim in the river at her property, having playtime and providing constant attention and love. And her dog Sunny is so loving and was a great playmate for Callie. :). Such a reassuring feeling to have her with Jill while we traveled. Knowing she was getting constant attention, love, care, exercise, and play. I will never use a kennel or doggy care center again as long as Jill is available, thanks Jill ! :-)”
“Would definitely recommend Beth, Ruby had a great time. Beth provided space for Ruby to get comfortable and socialize with other pets. She provided updates as this was our 1st time leaving Ruby overnight. Thank you Beth for making Ruby feel at home during our trip.”
“Franny had the BEST time. Kailee and her kids were so incredibly sweet with our puppy, and they were so welcoming and accommodating to her young puppy needs. 10/10 recommend! Franny absolutely loved their huge backyard too.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She deserves an award for handling my crazy, high energy Labrador. Somehow she kept up with his endless energy & chaos. I got constant pictures and videos giving me a peace of mind while i was gone. Duck came home happy and tired. Can’t thank her enough for watching him!”
“This is my second time bringing my dog to Natasha. My dog was so excited to see her and ran up to her door and never looked back to say goodbye to me 😂. He gets a lot of interaction and play time with her dogs. I would 100% recommend Natasha to take care of your pet. I have zero worries while away”
“Very happy with this experience :) We've never had anyone babysit our pups before and we were nervous about leaving them for a week so we tried a short boarding to see how it went. Rachael said it went very well and she seems very patient being able to handle our little ones and we are glad our pups took a liking to her! We really appreciate the fact that she works from home and is able to give them the attention they need!”
“Definitely a dog lover. You can absolutely tell she has a passion for having fun with dogs and she took in my doggie as one of her own. My baby was definitely happy to be there and play with Lexi and go to the park and have all the fun.”

“Aracely is the ultimate cat whisperer! This was our third time having her look after our home, and even for just a short visit, she continues to impress. Leaving a big pet family behind can be stressful, but knowing our six cats are in such great hands gives us total peace of mind. Aracely handles everyone’s individual quirks and needs like an absolute pro, ensuring they are not only well-fed but genuinely comfortable and content for the rest of the day. Every time we get back, everything is perfect and it’s clear our crew is happy and at ease. Huge shoutout to Aracely for taking such amazing care of them—we’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Grace was so good with my cat! She had great communication, was able to take a last minute booking and took so many great pictures of my cat! Would definitely book with her again!”
“I so appreciated being able to easily communicate with Angi and the pictures Angi sent me with each visit. She did a nice job of keeping my two cats fed, watered, and giving them human contact while I was away. I will definitely request Angi’s help in the future.😊”

“Noah is very good with animals! He seems to have a special bond with animals! He has been around dogs and cats since he was a baby! He is a responsible person and loves being with animals! He will do a very good job with your pets!”

About: Biscuit is my sweet cat who I’ve loved and cared for over the past 2 years. I understand how essential a consistent routine is for cats. I’m experienced with sticking to strict feeding schedules, keeping litter boxes spotless, giving medication if needed, and offering patient affection whether your cat is energetic or shy.
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life and recently became a dog-father to my 50lb poodle mix, Maggie about a year ago. I can appreciate the love we have for our fur-babies and how they are a part of the family. As a recent WMU DPT grad, I am in need of a little extra cash while studying full time for my licensure exam. I would love to be able to care for your dog in a flexible way that allows me time to study! As a recent DPT graduate from WMU, I am "full time" studying for my licensure exam at the end of April. Luckily, this gives me plenty of time to be flexible and care for dogs during study breaks, or staying in house as necessary. I live in a home with 2 medium-large sized dogs that get along well. My dog, Maggie, is a very well mannered poodle mix that gets a long with every dog we meet. We would love puppy play dates at the local Richland park, or Maggie can just as easily stay at home.

“Dick and Deborah were amazing. Opie had so much fun in the 6 hours he was there, he was sleeping before we even got to the first stop sign. The whole family was so sweet to him and gave him so much lovin. If we ever need a dog sitter again in the GR area, they'll be the only sitters we'll use.”
About: Hi, I'm Jill! Dogs have been part of my life since I can remember. I've spent years caring for and connecting with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Friends and family often call me the "dog whisperer" because I seem to naturally build trust with dogs, whether they're shy, anxious, energetic, independent, or just need a little extra patience. I also have a special appreciation for senior dogs and understand their unique needs, routines, and comfort requirements. Your pup will be welcomed into a loving home with Sunny, my friendly chocolate Lab, a large-fenced yard, a doggie door, and plenty of supervised playtime and attention throughout the day. There is also optional swimming in the river behind my home. As a full-time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule, I'm home or nearby most of the time, so your dog will enjoy companionship, exercise, and plenty of affection rather than being left alone for long periods. I believe every dog is an individual. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, cuddle, or simply relax in a calm environment, I'll take the time to learn their personality and routine, so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you're away. My home is where dogs aren't just watched—they're welcomed, understood, and loved. 🐾 I am a fully time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule. I spend much of my day working from home or close by, which means your dog won't be left along for long periods. I have a fenced-in back yard and one very friendly female Chocolate Lab named Sunny who loves to play. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs sleep in my room in a crate or on the floor at night
About: We have had pets for as long as I can remember. I pet sat as kid for neighbors frequently, riding my bike to play with dogs and cats, and feed chickens. My kids all also love animals and are eager to help your pet feel at home, away from home! We have a blue heeler/ border collie who roams in and out of the house, and can easily be kept apart from any dogs we are watching here. We LOVE taking xare of animals, and are learning more with every experience we have pet sitting, and sad every time to see them go! I love having extra snuggle buddies around, and can't wait to take care of your furry friend. We are a homeschool family, and usually home. My children love animals and we love playing with new animals whenever we can. We love to go for walks and hang out in our yard with our dog, pigs, and chickens. We have frequently watched a dog, and she fit in very well here-- we leashed her for potty breaks, crated her when we had to leave, and she roamed the house while we were home.
“I work from home, but had to travel for an all day training event. Luckily, Kim was able to keep my two Frenchies for the day. She sent so many great photos and updated me on how they were doing throughout the day. They came home happy, exhausted boys and snoozed the night away. Leaving our pups with anyone is such a very stressful event for us as our boys are family. Kim made the process less worrisome for us by sending the pictures, updates and quickly responding to my texts. We will be back! ?”
“Kathy has been wonderful taking care of my two doggos. She really works to understand my dogs' needs and what they're trying to tell her. She really treats them like there her owns dogs and part of the family. She has been nothing short of amazing in helping me curb some unwanted behaviors at home. When I go out of town in the future, I will be at ease knowing she's taking care of them.”
“I had a last minute trip to Grand Rapids for work and spent time looking for the perfect fit to watch my 7 mo old puppy during the day. Once I came across Anne’s profile, I’d hoped for a good experience and let me tell you, Anne and her family were absolutely amazing! They were super attentive to my pup — taking him for walks, allowing him to play with their animals, and maintaining structure for him by encouraging rest time, and correcting his behavior. Every time I came to pick him up, he was so sad to leave and he was super excited to be back at their house each time I dropped him off! I can’t sing their praises enough, it means the world to me that they helped me in a pinch and that they did an exceptional job! Any time I return to the area, Anne will be my go-to everytime!”
“Pippa had blast today with Kyra and the other pups. Photos show her running and enjoying the fenced yard. She seemed happy when I picked her up as well as well cared for. Kyra was very easy to work with and accommodating last minute changes.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Katherine and her lovely pups/cats! She was incredibly attentive to my pup, communicated clearly and consistently, and truly went above and beyond to care for Percy. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter.”
“First time here and Cub seemed to have really enjoyed himself. He clearly played a lot with the other dogs as he was spent when we got home! I’ll for sure be bringing him back again :)”
About: I have been a lifelong pet owner and love dogs. I have taken care of lots of dogs. Walking them, feeding them, brushing them, and most of all giving attention and love to them so they do not feel anxious or sad when their family is away. I am currently working very part time and would be available weekends or weekdays and also overnights. To give your dogs the best love and support I have a big yard but it is not fenced in so best to be on a leash at my house. I am also able to crate if need be.
About: I love animals! I have a 7 year old dog whose name is Winnie, a 5 year old dog named Winston. And a cat! . I’ve been watching dogs and cats since I was 10 years old! I love going on walks, hikes, going to dog parks, and spending time with any animal companion. You’re welcome to ask questions you feel are relevant! I will give out my cell phone number so you’re able to check in on your fur baby and I’ll send as many photos as you would like! I also work from home all day everyday so I’ll be here with your fur babies all day and I’m able to leave at anytime to take them to appointments if needed! I will also have Winnie all day. If that’s not okay please let me know and I can take her doggy day care!
“We needed a last minute option for the day, and now have a great place to take our active dog. Really appreciated the outdoor and indoor space Charlie had at Kristopher’s and also his knowledge of dogs and their needs. Our super active dog settled in right away for the whole day. Highly recommend!”
About: I have a dog-loving home with a large fenced in yard, my shitzu/chihuahua (named Chewy:) will help make your pet feel at home. We will take walks (typically two or more during a full-day stay) and love to take trips to the dog park-if you allow. I am retired and have lots of time to dedicate to your furry friend. I limit to two dogs maximum and prefer small breeds only (up to 25 lbs). In addition to daytime sitting, I will care for your pet for overnights and extended stays too! I have many years of dog care experience, caring for low maintenance dogs and those who have special dietary needs and daily medication administration. With clear instructions, I can follow your needs precisely. I require house trained pets, non destructive, other dog friendly, and up to date vaccinations. On occasion, I care for my young grandson so being child friendly is also required. I am retired! My schedule is very flexible. On Fridays I typically babysit my 2 year old grandson. If your pet is friendly with children, that is preferred, if not, and with ample notice, I can adjust my availability. I have a clean, non smoking home and love to spend time outside. Your pet will have fun running around in the fenced backyard and daily walks is how we would spend our days. Have a senior dog?? I am happy to be more low key and lounge on the couch with your pet! Just let me know how to make them feel at home.

About: I’ve been helping my parents raise dogs since I was around 10 years old, our first dog being a collie we rescued as she wasn’t being treated well with her initial owners. We took her in and got her cleaned up, took care of the fleas she had, found her a good diet, and gave her lots of love and attention through it all. We took her on camping trips, out on the water to go fishing, out on walks and to get pup cups at the ice cream shop, her favorite place being my granny’s house. Alongside her, we raised three more dogs when they were puppies, each one two years apart. 2 of them are Australian shepherds, and one is a husky, all girls and grew to form their own little pack, respecting each other’s place and playing happily in a big fenced in back yard. We supported our collie till her last breath as she was elderly, and even as she was so old, she always had her usual, laid back and quirky personality. Even now, I continue to help my parents take care of our dogs, as they’re not just pets, they’re our family, our fur babies, even in they’re old stages of life, they’ll always be our little babies in our hearts. So rest assured, your fur baby will be 110% safe and cared for with me, maybe even a bit spoiled! I’m sticking with Rover full time for a while! I’ve tried Camp Bow Wow, and found it isn’t the right work environment for me. I like providing services through Rover as I can better manage my schedule and get to know your fur babies more personally! With specific instructions written on paper, I have no issues accommodating to your pet’s needs in your home! I’m respectful during visits in others homes, treating them as my own and keeping spaces clean and tidy. With proper cleaning tools, I can clean up accidents on hard surfaces or rugs, I may need a demonstration on how to use a specific cleaning machine or vacuum depending on how complicated it is. I’m not allergic to any animal, or any breed, so pet hair doesn’t bother me! If need be, I am able to administer oral medications with proper instruction and demonstration. On walks I make sure to keep dogs close to me and away from the road, I carry doggy bags, and on hot days, I’ll carry a little folded up bowl that I can poor water in, so your baby stays hydrated!

About: I know dogs very well. I used to pet sit when I was young and still do. I’ve had many dogs a few cats and some fish. I am currently not working at a place with a schedule. I have no human children. No school, my schedule is open. I have time to meet pets needs. I have a nice yard on the lake, I leash up the fur babies and walk about a mile twice a day. Trips out the yard I’m between. I have an electric fence I haven’t put in yet.
About: I bring over 15 years of experience as a puppy trainer for Canine Companions for Independence, where I helped raise and train service dog puppies with structure, consistency, and patience. That experience gave me a deep understanding of obedience training, behavior development, socialization, and building trust with dogs of all temperaments. I’ve also had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. I’m comfortable reinforcing training, working with puppies, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I understand routines, communication, and the importance of making pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away. What sets me apart is reliability, experience, and treating every pet like family — with structured care, attention to detail, and consistent updates for peace of mind. As a stay-at-home dad, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. During the school year, I have flexibility and availability throughout the day for drop-ins, walks, feedings, and check-ins. Summers are even more open, allowing me to offer consistent, reliable care with a flexible schedule. Because I’m home-based, I’m able to prioritize punctuality, routine, and communication. Pet care isn’t something I try to squeeze in — it’s something I can intentionally plan my day around to ensure your pets receive dependable, attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide exercise or playtime based on their needs, clean litter boxes or pick up waste promptly, and reinforce any household rules or training already in place. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on consistency, patience, and attentiveness. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. With over 15 years of experience training puppies for Canine Companions for Independence and a lifetime of owning both dogs and cats, I’m highly observant of behavior and body language, ensuring your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.

About: II’ve been pet sitting for my sister for the past two years, including full week stays while her family travels. During that time, I’ve cared for her two cats – feeding, grooming, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them plenty of love and playtime. Cats are easygoing, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I also have my own dog and cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels. I take my dog on regular walks and love bringing her to the park. Sometimes my cat even joins the adventure! My goal is simple: keep your pet happy, safe, and well cared for. I work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday 3–6 pm. Outside those hours I’m available for walks, play, feeding, and maintaining your pet’s schedule; I’ll update you if anything changes. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and at home whether I’m caring for them in my space or in theirs. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddle time—so they feel relaxed and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, since every pet is different. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and always make sure doors, gates, and supplies are secure. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with respect and make sure everything stays neat while giving their pets plenty of love and attention. I also like to send updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are happy, safe, and having fun.

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.

“Jillian. was perfect with our puppy, Hershey. Hershey has a lot of energy and when Jillian. walked her she was so tired that the dog actually fell asleep on Jillian.‘s foot while we were chatting after the walk. This is what I had hoped for! I definitely recommend Jillian. as a very qualified and capable doggy care person.”
About: I have 5 dogs of my own, ranging from a cattle dog to a pitbull.I have no problem taking care of any type of animal and I have experience in all fields of care, including bathing, walking, nail-trimming, and more. I’m free from 6am-11pm on weekdays! I do work full-time but my boss is lenient and he’d have no problem with me tending to your furry friends! I personally have 5 dogs in a non-fenced in yard but they are all very well trained. I would prefer to keep your animals in the comfort of their own home though due to my dogs being very playful, if your dogs are comfortable being in a high-energy setting it would be no problem but they don’t need added stress from my rowdy bunch.
About: I have grown up with multiple pets in the house at once and have 5+ years of sitting. I am very passionate about ensuring that animals are well taken care of and have a flexible schedule. I’m currently a graduate student at WMU, and spend most of my free time studying or hanging out with my cats! My schedule is very flexible, which means I have more time to spend with your fur babies :) I am able to walk, feed and play with your pet for as long as needed, as well as drop by for potty breaks as often as needed. I take into account the personality of every animal and tailor each experience to each different pet.
About: I enjoy every animal for their individual personalities. I look forward to caring for them when I am not caring for people in the hospital. I work full time as an RN and care for pets on my days from my career. Seeing animals brings me joy and warms my heart. I care for pets as if they are all my own and enjoy the little things. I pay attention to detail and like to leave areas in better off condition that when I find it. Your pets happiness is my priority.

I can appreciate the love we have for our fur-babies and how they are a part of the family. As a recent WMU DPT grad, I am in need of a little extra cash while studying full time for my licensure exam. I would love to be able to care for your dog in a flexible way that allows me time to study! As a recent DPT graduate from WMU, I am "full time" studying for my licensure exam at the end of April. Luckily, this gives me plenty of time to be flexible and care for dogs during study breaks, or staying in house as necessary. I live in a home with 2 medium-large sized dogs that get along well. My dog, Maggie, is a very well mannered poodle mix that gets a long with every dog we meet. We would love puppy play dates at the local Richland park, or Maggie can just as easily stay at home.

“Christine and her crew were incredible and did a great job. Thor came home exhausted and without any bad habits (begging from the table, attempting to get on furniture, etc). Great communication before and throughout the stay. Thor loved his time with Cornelius and is looking forward to his next visit.”
“I had to leave town last weekend and decided to see what boarding my dog Ding with somebody from Rover might be like. I hit the jackpot when I decided to reach out to Roman and Suzanne. Right from the get go they were extremely responsive and had the answers to all my questions. And so friendly! We did a quick meet and greet at their home and I instantly knew I’d be trusting my guy with them. Just really wonderful people and they clearly love the animals they take care of. And they sure took care of mine! I got lots of pictures and updates over the weekend, and Ding looked so happy in all of them. He really hit it off with their dog Sonic! The weekend flew by and after an easy pickup (they really made everything so easy!) Ding and I were back home. He totally crashed out after a fun weekend with his new friends. Cant recommend Roman and Suzanne and family enough! I’ll definitely be reaching out to for another upcoming weekend trip :) Thanks so much!”
“Katlynn and her family were so great! They took great care of our 2 goldens and sent lots of updates! The whole process was made super easy and stress free! Immediate responses to any questions I had. We will definitely be using Katlynn again!”
“Anne and her family were so kind to watch my pup Dune last minute after our original dog sitting plans for vacation fell through. We did an initial met/greet to ensure our dogs got along and Dune loved playing with the other pups. Communication with daily updates and photos was awesome! Kenneling overnight. We were so grateful for your flexiblity and help! Thank you all for taking such great care of my boy :)”
“We are very pleased to find Julie for our boarding needs. She received plenty of exercise during her stay being able to play with other pets. Already scheduled for next trip😊”
“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.”
“Janelle was fantastic and knows how hard it is to leave behind your family member. She was very reassuring and sent us photos and wonderful messages everyday. We could not have asked for a better caretaker for our pup!! She had fun adventures with their dogs and got plenty of play time outdoors. Janelle went above and beyond and helped ensure all things went smoothly. We are so grateful for the care she gave our dog and we couldn’t be happier!”
“Wow, what can I say… Jill ( & Sunny :))was amazing with our 4 yr old yellow lab, Callie! She was so loving and all about making a great experience for Callie. Her home was perfect and such a nice setting back near a nice river with a large yard with a fenced in area as well. Our dog could use her doggy door (once she got the hang of it ;) )and go outside to the fenced in yard and play/potty/whatever ….as she needed. Jill was great about taking walks, letting her swim in the river at her property, having playtime and providing constant attention and love. And her dog Sunny is so loving and was a great playmate for Callie. :). Such a reassuring feeling to have her with Jill while we traveled. Knowing she was getting constant attention, love, care, exercise, and play. I will never use a kennel or doggy care center again as long as Jill is available, thanks Jill ! :-)”
“Would definitely recommend Beth, Ruby had a great time. Beth provided space for Ruby to get comfortable and socialize with other pets. She provided updates as this was our 1st time leaving Ruby overnight. Thank you Beth for making Ruby feel at home during our trip.”
“Franny had the BEST time. Kailee and her kids were so incredibly sweet with our puppy, and they were so welcoming and accommodating to her young puppy needs. 10/10 recommend! Franny absolutely loved their huge backyard too.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She deserves an award for handling my crazy, high energy Labrador. Somehow she kept up with his endless energy & chaos. I got constant pictures and videos giving me a peace of mind while i was gone. Duck came home happy and tired. Can’t thank her enough for watching him!”
“This is my second time bringing my dog to Natasha. My dog was so excited to see her and ran up to her door and never looked back to say goodbye to me 😂. He gets a lot of interaction and play time with her dogs. I would 100% recommend Natasha to take care of your pet. I have zero worries while away”
“Very happy with this experience :) We've never had anyone babysit our pups before and we were nervous about leaving them for a week so we tried a short boarding to see how it went. Rachael said it went very well and she seems very patient being able to handle our little ones and we are glad our pups took a liking to her! We really appreciate the fact that she works from home and is able to give them the attention they need!”
“Definitely a dog lover. You can absolutely tell she has a passion for having fun with dogs and she took in my doggie as one of her own. My baby was definitely happy to be there and play with Lexi and go to the park and have all the fun.”
