“We suddenly needed a boarder for our 8 month old puppy and were a little anxious about it. Upon meeting Derik, he put our mind at ease immediately. He has a nice fenced in yard where dogs can run and play. Every picture he sent us showed a very happy active puppy. We will definitely be using Derik again!”
“Daniel was amazing! From the very beginning, he invited us to his home so we could feel more comfortable and showed us his backyard. While Nala stayed with him, he kept us updated with photos and messages the whole time. He was super attentive and always made sure everything was going well. We could really tell he cared about Nala. Highly recommend him! 🐶✨”
“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.”
“Mari Jane and Darla did a great job with sending photos of our dogs stay within minutes after our departure. She looks happy in all all of them and is even cuddling with her in several which gave us peace of mind! They are very easy to work with, and we are looking forward to using them again in the future!”
“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!”
“Wow! What an incredible experience:). Pamela was wonderful with Abby. She sent me pics of Abby cuddling and playing frisbee outside and playing with other dogs. Abby is usually very scared of new people and her personality won’t shine. Not the case here. Thank you Pamela for your care and attention to Abby - she had a great time:). Will definitely call again and I’ve already referred to 3 people!💕”
“Jamie is a 5 star dog sitter. Her and her family brought our dog, Brodie, in and made him part of their family. She sent pictures and communicated with us daily. Definitely will hire her again.”
“Kiana was amazing She make sure she sent lot of updates along with pictures! Kiana understood how hard is was for me to leave my baby for the first time and keep me at ease! She is definitely part of the family now! Anytime I have to travel I know he'll be okay with his now "Auntie" ...lol”
“We were so thankful to know our dog was with Terry and his wife. They took him in like one of their own from the moment they met Frodo. The pictures were great, and they were very accommodating with drop off/pick up. 10/10 would send Frodo to them again!”
“We learned about Rover though a relative and are very glad we did. We have used various other boarding services over the past few years for Sophie. They all have their particular strengths and weaknesses but the personal service provided through Rover is the best option right now. This is Sophie's second stay with Patty and we are very happy with her service. Sophie gets along and plays well with Patty's two dogs. This takes care of two things: Sophie gets a playmate and burns off some energy. Another advantage is that it is much more relaxing and less stressful for her to be in a home environment. Patty sends out photos and updates as well which not only show that Sophie is enjoying herself, but making herself right at home. So all around a good fit for us which we will be using again. Sophie is in good hands when she stays with Patty.”

“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!”
“I’ve only lived in this area for three years. It is taken me this long to find a place I feel comfortable leaving my dog. I highly recommend Francis. She updated me throughout the weekend and sent pictures so I would know that my dog was doing OK. What a relief knowing that when I’m out of town I know that my dog is being well taken care of!”
About: I’ve owned multiple dogs during my life and come with 11 years in dog care expertise. From puppies to seniors and from small to large dogs.

I’m a teacher and am currently off for the summer, so my schedule is completely flexible to best suit you and your furry friend’s needs! I have a fenced in patio and a friendly puppy to keep your furry friend company. I’m also able to accommodate any crating needs if necessary.
“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!”
“Katherine was excellent with our black lab! Even with a fairly short notice, she and her family welcomed her and took great care of her over the weekend. Would book again!”
“Christopher was our first pet sitter and he exceeded all of our expectations. He kept our puppy busy and happy while we were away. We also got updates and photos practically daily which was so encouraging! We couldn’t have had a better experience.”

“Ashley did a great job of taking care of our cats, one of whom is an active young cat who needs playtime! We appreciated the daily reports and photos, and could tell that Ashley was giving them the attention and affection they needed.”
“Just fabulous. On our meet and greet, Barts (my cat) took to Maggie immediately. During her check-ins, I got timely updates and plenty of photos - playtime, open window time, snacks and cuddles. Excellent communication at all times. Maggie even helped me out by watering some plants, and took the initiative to take my trash can out to the curb for pickup even though I hadn’t mentioned it. Upon arriving home, I was greeted by a very happy cat even though I’m sure he will miss her. At least until the next time because I won’t hesitate to book Maggie again if she is available. 🙂❤️”
“Very nice & great communication!! I had a pick up and drop off and she was super nice and very professional she picked him up & dropped him off within the time frame we set up. She made me feel comfortable leaving my baby with her and I could tell he was comfortable with her as well. Will definitely be using again if I need a sitter”
About: I had a cat growing up from a young age, so taking care of kitties is second nature for me! My college roommate also had a cat (officially know as my godcat 😻), so cats and cat care has been apart of my entire life. My dog, Brida, is OBSESSED with cats. She is respectful of their boundaries and will watch and follow them in admiration all day, if I let her. In the past, she has come with me to pet sit, on drop-ins, and regular socializing (per owner consent). She even made best friends with a feral cat while we lived in SWFL that we lovingly named Karl (see picture for our orange love bug!). I have experience with taking care of indoor, indoor/outdoor, and outdoor cats. I also have experience with administering medication and specialized care.
“Sweetest girl! My cat never comes out for strangers and he actually played with her! My dog loved her immediately. I would definitely recommend her to anyone with pets, and she booked with me pretty last minute she’s a life saver!”
“What an amazing experience to be able to be gone for a long day and know that Millie was loved and well cared for by Lexi!! We definitely will set up more dates with her! Thank you so much!! 😊”
“Nicholas and Caitlin were so great! They communicated well and sent pictures, showed up promptly for the check ins and seemed to really enjoy spending time with our boys most importantly you could tell the dogs really loved them. We have big boisterous dogs and they are not for the faint of heart-Caitlin and Nicholas didn’t bat an eye and even won over our shy guy. We will absolutely be booking again in the future.”
About: Growing up my family always owned one or two golden retrievers at a time and instantly fell in love with the breed. I worked at a dog boarding/day care facility for about 3 years. I’ve worked with many different types of breeds along with all sorts of temperaments. With that came taking care of dogs of ALL ages. I’ve handled up to 15 large dogs at a time, also handling cats. Absolutely loved my job and hope to continue working with animals:) I work at a School in Grand Haven, Monday-Friday till around 4p.m. (Sometimes later) So, my evenings are open to walks & drop-ins. My weekends are still available for house sitting, drop-ins, and walks! In the summer there is lots more availability! I was lucky enough to grow up with a mom that did full time pet sitting at one point and got to tag along on all her trips. I also pet sit for family and friends. Including overnights, walks, and administering medications, eye drops, pills, ect. So, I know how important it is to be mindful of someone’s else’s home and their four-legged (sometimes three) loved ones.
“Very well structured great communication. People that love what they do are great out what they do and that’s been our experience here. Thank you for last-minute appointment and the photos. That one of my girl and ruhn being silly on the couch had me laughing out loud!”
“Emily went above and beyond with my kitties, Marv and Maisy. First time I’ve used Rover and I was relieved at how much of a good job Emily was doing and giving me amazing daily updates. I haven’t been gone that long and my cats are as normal as they can be when I got home rather than being stand-off ish and hiding. Highly recommend Emily to take care of your pets.”
“Sara has been a huge help! She’s reliable, responsible, and communicates very well. I truly appreciate her kindness and dependability, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent pet care.”
About: With over 15 years of pet sitting experience, I provide dependable, compassionate care for animals of all kinds. 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. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring, experienced hands. I work Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM, with the flexibility to work remotely when needed. I’m typically in the office Tuesday through Thursday, but my schedule allows me to adjust and be available for your pet’s needs. I care for pets in my home as if they are my own, paying close attention to their body language, routines, and individual needs and preferences. I also provide care in the owner’s home with the same level of attentiveness, respect, and consistency. I treat every home I enter with extreme care, professionalism, and respect.
About: I have lived with cats for almost my whole life and they are literally the best kind of pets a person can have. While dogs are great cats if they choose you it means in my opinion a thousand times more because cats are choosy and don't just love anyone they meet.
About: I have 10 years experience watching hobby farms. Most of my time is spent watching pigs and chickens. I worked at a horse farm this past year handling 40+ horses a day. I frequently administer meds to various animals. I have a very flexible schedule to ensure your pets needs are met. I currently work for myself and can adjust my schedule according to your needs. I typically do 2-3 visits for daytime and need up to 6 hours at any point in the day for work. I prefer to spend as much time as possible with your pet to ensure their routine does not change and can adjust my schedule accordingly.

About: HI, my name is Lenore, - My love for animals began when I was very young... - A few years ago, my Sheltie, Spencer... at 10 wk old, was already highly intelligent, and so full of love. In 3 days time, was house trained, and enrolled in Puppy Pre-School at a local PETSMART. He was such a quick learner, sitting and staying in no time! - Years later, my youngest Son and I, owned registered AKC, Siberian Huskies, and raised and sold 4 litters of puppies. Such fun. - a few other animals I've cared for; dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, bearded dragons, fish, eels, a chinchilla, pet snakes....but said no to a tarantula! Just can't do that one!! - thank you ahead of time for your consideration, you will NOT regret putting your trust in me. - Calm, and easy going are my characteristics, as i have plenty of time, and a big heart, to devote to caring for your companion, friend and family member!! Also being a loving & giving person, my priority would be, to fully enjoy caring for your dog, or pet... fulfilling a desire in me to again have a dog in the house, to care for, to spend time with, talk to, & treat 'royally' (spoil) :)) enjoying every second of the blessing. I will take only one dog at a time unless you have two, who know each other, and get along. That way, I can & will devote lots of extra TLC for your best friend...and will definitely treat them as if they were my own, with utmost of value and importance, how they deserve! Thank You lenore My availability for Your Dearest Companion is 24/7. They will have my undevided loving attention. I truly care and will treat them as my own! My home and care provided by myself, will always be a safe and stress-free environment, to help Your Honeys feel 100% comfortable! 🌟💞 My Promise
“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. ❤️”
“We cannot state our appreciation for Beth further— she helped us out in a complete bind. We’re not from the area and travel with our dogs often so thought nothing of it when we had a wedding to attend in Holland but one dog decided she didn’t want to be quiet in our accommodations and we were told to figure it out or be evicted from the hotel (understandable). We put the call out to a few dog sitters over Rover and Beth responded quickly with compassion and responsiveness. We were able to drop our dogs with her after a very easy-going meeting to make sure all parties were comfortable and safe. It was easy to see Beth cared and had a great operation. We were able to attend the wedding and reception afterwards with peace of mind. We just scooped up our pups and they’re completely, happily pooped. I would recommend Beth to anyone who is looking for someone with a giant heart and generous soul to take care of their pups. Thanks again, Beth!!!”

About: I have been watching animals for over 13 years now and there has never been an animal I haven't been able to connect with. It's truly a gift, that clients have recognized throughout my services. Being able to connect with animals and taking care of them is my passion; they are truly our saviors! I am gig worker who gets to set their own schedule. I really have an open schedule for various animal care needs. Also this allows more time with your animal!

About: History: My family adopted two puppies when I was in high school and I trained them both. Although they remained in my mom’s care, I continued to pet sit them throughout their long 18-year and 15-year lives (so, I’m experienced with senior care!). As an adult I adopted two dogs from two different animal rescue organizations. My first dog, Odin, was rescued from a situation of severe neglect and abuse. He was not trusting of humans, had significant health issues, and had become quite feral. Odin quickly became my soul dog. I worked very hard to gain his trust, give him proper training, give him proper medical care, and give him the best, most adventurous life I could. He passed away a couple of years ago as a happy, healthy, well-trained, and so loved pup. He continued to have health issues throughout his life because of how poorly he was treated earlier in life, so I am very experienced with dogs that have special treatment, diets, and/or needs. It is because of how well I was able to rehabilitate Odin that I was allowed to adopt my second dog, Brida (whom I still have!). Brida was also rescued from a situation of severe neglect and abuse. With Odin’s help, and a lot of love and patience, Brida is now a well-trained, loving girl that has become my absolute best friend. She still carries trauma from things that happened prior to me adopting her, so she’s timid and is still not very trusting of adult men or reactive dogs. Children make her nervous, mostly because she hasn’t had much long term exposure with kids. Brida only ever interacts with other animals that I walk and/or take care of after owner consent and success meet-and-greets. Brida has been on longterm pet care stays with me with a couple of regular clients, but she also enjoys staying at my Mom’s house for sleepovers, if need be! Brida ADORES all the dogs in her life - ranging from gentle giants to squirmy, energetic puppies - and loves playing chase. She does not understand how to play with dogs toys, so she will never steal another dog’s toy or bone (unless she has watched them use it first, and she’ll practice when she thinks no one is watching her). Brida is OBSESSED with cats. She respects kitty boundaries, and would follow them around in fascination all day everyday if she could. Present: I have availability year round, and a lot more availability during the summers. My services range from walks, check-ins, overnight care, and more. We look forward to getting to know our pawsome community here in West Michigan better! 🐾 My typical availability includes afternoons, evenings, and weekends. My summer schedule allows me to offer all day availability or multiple time frames of availability per day, with occasional restrictions. My dog, Brida, is fed twice a day (morning/evening), gets let out 3x per day, goes on 1-2 walks per day, and has free range of our living space. Outside, she is typically on a leash or stationary lead. I do have experience taking care of crate-trained pets as well. When providing long term care, I typically request a personalized schedule to be provided so I can best ensure a regular routine for the pet.

About: I come from a family that has always sheltered, rescued, and spoiled all the fur babies that come into our lives. Patience and affection are our gifts. I work part time out of the house and part time in my home. That leaves my schedule open to caring for others pets in my home or for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard and a large home with plenty of room. If your pupper is unfamiliar with cats I can ensure safe space kept between them. Walks, couch potato time, and kiddos in and out make for plenty of love and activity. My children are old enough to provide respectful space to pets that need it.
About: I have 3 cats and a puppy. I’ve had 3 dogs in my life span. My mother in law has 2 dogs a huge dog (great paranyese) and a small dog. So I’m very good around dogs as well.

I’m confident reading dog body language, approaching them in ways that help them feel safe, and tailoring my care to each dog’s individual needs. I’m experienced in all aspects of daily care, including feeding, exercise, administering medications, and maintaining routines.

I have a flexible schedule and can work around your pet’s needs. Daily walks, special routines, or last-minute care — I’m happy to make it happen so your pets get consistent, reliable attention. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for every pet. I take time to understand each pet’s unique needs and personality, helping them feel at ease in my presence. Whether in my home or at the client’s home, I ensure their surroundings are secure and calm, and I provide consistent attention, care, and reassurance so pets feel relaxed and happy while in my care.

I have provided house-sitting and doggy daycare for numerous family friends, and have taken care of my mom’s 3 dogs - one of which is a Great Dane (huge) and a senior dog that needs help getting up and down stairs. I am available for dog walking in afternoons during the week, and certain weekends given my personal schedule. Depending on your home location, I can do drop-ins during my lunch hour to let them out / play with them! I am flexible so just reach out and ask! I currently have a senior beagle and live in an apartment. Therefore I am primarily focused on going to your home for dog walking needs!

“We suddenly needed a boarder for our 8 month old puppy and were a little anxious about it. Upon meeting Derik, he put our mind at ease immediately. He has a nice fenced in yard where dogs can run and play. Every picture he sent us showed a very happy active puppy. We will definitely be using Derik again!”
“Daniel was amazing! From the very beginning, he invited us to his home so we could feel more comfortable and showed us his backyard. While Nala stayed with him, he kept us updated with photos and messages the whole time. He was super attentive and always made sure everything was going well. We could really tell he cared about Nala. Highly recommend him! 🐶✨”
“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.”
“Mari Jane and Darla did a great job with sending photos of our dogs stay within minutes after our departure. She looks happy in all all of them and is even cuddling with her in several which gave us peace of mind! They are very easy to work with, and we are looking forward to using them again in the future!”
“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!”
“Wow! What an incredible experience:). Pamela was wonderful with Abby. She sent me pics of Abby cuddling and playing frisbee outside and playing with other dogs. Abby is usually very scared of new people and her personality won’t shine. Not the case here. Thank you Pamela for your care and attention to Abby - she had a great time:). Will definitely call again and I’ve already referred to 3 people!💕”
“Jamie is a 5 star dog sitter. Her and her family brought our dog, Brodie, in and made him part of their family. She sent pictures and communicated with us daily. Definitely will hire her again.”
“Kiana was amazing She make sure she sent lot of updates along with pictures! Kiana understood how hard is was for me to leave my baby for the first time and keep me at ease! She is definitely part of the family now! Anytime I have to travel I know he'll be okay with his now "Auntie" ...lol”
“We learned about Rover though a relative and are very glad we did. We have used various other boarding services over the past few years for Sophie. They all have their particular strengths and weaknesses but the personal service provided through Rover is the best option right now. This is Sophie's second stay with Patty and we are very happy with her service. Sophie gets along and plays well with Patty's two dogs. This takes care of two things: Sophie gets a playmate and burns off some energy. Another advantage is that it is much more relaxing and less stressful for her to be in a home environment. Patty sends out photos and updates as well which not only show that Sophie is enjoying herself, but making herself right at home. So all around a good fit for us which we will be using again. Sophie is in good hands when she stays with Patty.”

“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!”
“I’ve only lived in this area for three years. It is taken me this long to find a place I feel comfortable leaving my dog. I highly recommend Francis. She updated me throughout the weekend and sent pictures so I would know that my dog was doing OK. What a relief knowing that when I’m out of town I know that my dog is being well taken care of!”

“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!”
“Katherine was excellent with our black lab! Even with a fairly short notice, she and her family welcomed her and took great care of her over the weekend. Would book again!”
“Christopher was our first pet sitter and he exceeded all of our expectations. He kept our puppy busy and happy while we were away. We also got updates and photos practically daily which was so encouraging! We couldn’t have had a better experience.”
“This was Fergus’ first time with Felix and I felt assured the whole time that he was in good hands. The photos & videos were great & I could tell Fergus was having a good time. Highly recommend”
