Dog Sitting Zeeland

“First timers here, and the pups were happy and well cared for beyond our expectations; we're looking forward to Tracy taking care of our furbabies again!”

About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember. My sisters and I would bring home stray pets knowing once our mom saw them she wouldn't say no. At one time, we had 3 dogs and five cats. I currently have a boxer/ rat terrier/ coonhound mix named Bentley. I have dog sat for family friends and love having extra snuggles and wet kisses. I know its hard to leave our fur babies behind and look forward to having the trust to care for them and put your mind at ease. Very flexible and can accommodate most schedules on potty breaks and exercise. We take frequent walks around the neighborhood and have a nice big park across the road. We recently adopted a new addition to our family, Bandit. ❤️ He’s a 1.5 year old heeler mix, socialized, and fostered with puppies. He’s happy to make new friends.

“Kaylan was terrific. She fed our cats and played with them. She is a good communicator, very responsible, and helped us out an extra time when we needed it.”

“Great communication! Our dogs loved her! Very respectful of our property! She even loved on our cats when they came to say hello as well! Would recommend over and over again! 10/10!”

About: Hello!! I have had a dog since I was born and learned to feed and walk them at a young age. I take care of my neighbors dog when she has commitments. My daughter and I take him out for a walk end of the night so she doesn’t have to when she gets home. I’ve house sat on weekends so friends can have a weekend vacation. Also have taken a friends’ dog for walks after school before they get home so the pup can go potty. I work full time Monday through Friday but home by 4:45 everyday. I can can care for your pet in my home starting Friday nights to Sundays for your weekend get aways. I also can do a drop in visit and take your pet for walks and play for a bit if you have to work late or convenience. My daughter and I would cuddle, play and love your pet. We play outside and go for walks a lot. With permission we go to the dog park to run off energy or play with friends of mine’s dogs. Jumping on the couch is never an issue. I prefer to them to get comfortable on couch pillows as if it’s his/her home. The less stress/anxiety on your pet the better. Your pet will never wait in the morning to go outside potty as 5:30am is typically sleeping in for me. My daughter loves to do tricks or even try to teach new ones. I work full time during the week. I am available for drop ins and dog walks during the week after 4:15. Starting Friday night by 4:30 I’m available for boarding and house sitting. On this Rover platform it is set to weekends only for boarding but if you have a cat that needs a long stay that is totally fine and would be happy to do that. When I board an animal I try to be home as much as possible or make it a day event for a walk in the trails (with a leash of course), or play with friends of mines pets. When your pet is in my care I like to have all of my errands finished that way we have constant interaction, opportunities to snuggle/play and go for walks. The more time I have with your pet I hope the more comfortable they feel. Your pet already misses their human and wouldn’t want to leave them alone. I can board up to 2 dogs per family at a time but wouldn’t take on any more to avoid possible temperaments or jealousy. When going for walks I have your pup on a leash at all times. I have a family environment home so your family pup will always have attention. I like to send a few pictures and videos each day to let you know he/she is safe and having a good time.

“Frances is awesome. We have had her check in with Pumpkin multiple times. She is my first choice. Will always use her. Love the pictures and updates she gives us. Pumpkin is very shy but when Frances comes over before we leave she goes right to her to say hi!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been caring for pets for family and friends since I was 14. From feeding and walks to playtime, bathing, and ensuring their safety, I treat every dog like my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Our home is full of love, and my kids (ages 5–16) enjoy helping give extra attention and playtime (always supervised). Your pup will feel safe, loved, and right at home with us! Every other week we travel to Coopersville for school needs—and your pup is more than welcome to come along and enjoy the ride and have an adventure! While we don’t have a fenced yard and live in a quiet mobile home community, we make up for it with plenty of activity! We’re surrounded by miles of bike paths, nearby parks, on-leash trails, and a large dog park—so your pup will get all the exercise and stimulation they need.

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 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 have always had dogs, raising them from puppies. I have had old dogs, sick dogs, active dogs, pure breeds, and mixed breeds. They always become part of the family. I work from home and am usually only away for a couple of hours at a time. If I know ahead of time that a specific pet needs more attention, I can schedule accordingly. I have a fenced yard with a doggie door. I keep the doggie door shut unless an owner asks for me to use it. I do not have any children or pets of my own in my home at this time. I live in a quiet neighborhood. A very calm environment.

About: I’ve had animals all my life and hold a special place in my heart for them all! My family has rescued dogs small and large as well as a cat. I’m am currently graduating in May and will be pursing a masters online with that being said I have a lot of flexibility to work with you and your fur baby :) With experiance my own pups I will care for them as if they were my own. I have had larger breed rescues and smaller dogs as well as a cat in my household.

About: I have been pet sitting for about 11 years, and have had family pets (both dogs and cats, rodents, fish) for my entire life. I have experience caring for senior cats of my own and as a cat sitter, as well as dogs with anxiety and special medical needs. I am comfortable and have experience with other house-sitting duties as well, such as watering plants, cleaning litter, etc. I am responsible, caring, and patient, and I currently have an apartment full of plants and 2 happy, healthy cats of my own whom I love very much! I take it as my responsibility to make sure that your pet is happy, healthy, and comfortable! During the year I am a substitute school teacher, so I have a very flexible schedule. Some days I work half days, never later than 4 pm or earlier than 8 am. I am more than happy to come provide care in the morning and afternoon/evening, and may even be available throughout the day depending on the school schedule. In order to best care for your pet, my goal is to keep their schedule as normal as possible (feeding/walking/play times). I know how important it is that your pet gets as much love and attention as possible while you are gone, and I will make sure to spend that time with them as well as taking care of their needs.

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: My Golden Retriever, Dutch, loves animals of all sizes! I provide pet sitting in my home and welcome your best friend to stay while you are away. Walks around our quiet neighborhood and trips to the dog park (if appropriate) are part of our pet sitting package. I take only one dog at a time (two if from the same family) to ensure your dog has a special stay while you are away! I work remotely several days a week, and close by and can come home as needed when scheduled ahead. I also have a puppy cam to keep an eye on things while I am away! Lifelong dog mom, caring for other dogs brings me a sense of joy! My home is clean and safe for your dog. I have a field behind me and Dutch enjoys laying in the sun and snow in our back yard. Your dog will be walked daily and can be contained in the back yard if they enjoy being outside. I have references upon request and a long history raising and caring for dogs.

About: I have always had dogs growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I've taken care of dogs ranging in all different sizes and breeds most my life. I have experience in dog care from volunteering at Harbor Humane Society's and animal shelters along with caretaking for dogs at home. I have experience in catering to old and newborn dogs aswell as dogs that require medications and "extra" help around the house. I’m currently in college and have plenty of time to care for animals. I'm more than happy to be of some service for your furry best friend! I care for pets as if they are my own and treated with the utmost respect and safety as if they were royalty. If they need any special treatment or needs I will gladly accommodate them. Examples would be crates, treats, medicine, routines, animal food, etc. Unfortunately rover takes 20% of all earnings, which is due to the price increase if you’ve booked with us before, thank you for your understanding.

“Lydia took wonderful care of my Peanut while I was away for Christmas. He hid from her for the first few days, but she was so patient and kind and completely won him over. She sent great photos and videos of every visit. I truly cannot recommend Lydia highly enough.”

“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!!”

About: I've been around dogs since I was born. I have been pet sitting since I was 12 years old. I love taking care of animals. My family forsts for a rescue regularly. I am a part-time worker, but I don't work more than 8 hours a day. I'm available weekdays and weekends. I can schedule early mornings to late at night.

If they are in my home, I will do all of that and will have 2 other dogs for them to play with.
