About: I’ve owned and loved dogs my entire life. I’ve also been dog sitting for multiple different kinds of dogs for the last 10 years. I am experienced with puppies as well as caring for senior dogs with special needs. I currently work full time but I have plenty of time after work (5:30-9pm) and on weekends to stop by to see your pet or walk your dog. I make sure all doors/gates are closed so no one can decide to make a run for it. I also make sure dogs are crated when I leave if that is something they need.

About: I have over 13 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. I was a devoted owner of my Chihuahua for 13 years, which gave me extensive experience with long-term, attentive care and the needs of an aging dog. I also have experience with neonatal puppies. I helped care for a litter of 8 puppies from birth through adoption, assisting with feeding, handling, cleaning, monitoring their development, and providing consistent care until they went to their forever homes. I continue to help care for young puppies belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with puppy routines, supervision, and the extra patience they require. Additionally, I gained professional experience working at a doggy daycare during college, where I helped care for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable following each pet’s individual routine. My goal is to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention I would want for my own dog. My Availability 🐾 I’m unavailable Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8 AM–4 PM, but I’m available after 4 PM on those days. I’m fully available Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with flexible availability throughout the day. Have a specific schedule in mind? Send me a booking request or message me with your dates and your pet’s routine, and I’ll be happy to see how I can help! 🐾 Every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I like to learn what works best for them before each booking. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, medication if needed and within my comfort level, and plenty of attention and companionship. For drop-in visits and walks, I can follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. For overnight care, I do not stay overnight in clients’ homes. I’m happy to discuss extended drop-in visits or multiple visits throughout the day and evening instead. For boarding or overnight stays in my home, arrangements need to be discussed and approved in advance since I live with my family. I’ll make sure the setup is a good fit for both your pet and my household before confirming the booking. My goal is to make the experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

“I recently had the pleasure of having Lauren take care of my dogs while I was on vacation, and I couldn't be more satisfied! From the moment I contacted her, it was clear that she truly cares about animals. Lauren kept in constant communication, sending regular updates and adorable photos of my furry friends. This thoughtful touch really helped alleviate my stress and allowed me to enjoy my trip to the fullest. Each time I received an update, I felt reassured knowing that my dogs were not only well cared for but also having a fantastic time. Lauren's dedication and love for animals are evident in everything she does. I was particularly impressed with how she tailored her care to meet the specific needs and personalities of my pets. If you're looking for someone to babysit your fur babies, I highly recommend Lauren! She is trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about providing the best care possible. Thanks to her, I can rest easy knowing that my dogs are in good hands. I will definitely be calling on Lauren again for future pet-sitting needs!”

About: I am 32 years young now and I have had pets since I can remember. I grew up with medium and big dogs. Also cats, chickens, rabbits and goats. I LOVE ANIMALS! I am self employed, so my schedule is very flexible. It will be very easy to have time to board your furry baby since I work on my own time. I have 2 bedrooms, a basement and garage. The yard is fenced in. I know that some dogs can be aggressive and there is no judgement at all. If your dog needs to be separate, that is totally fine. All separate pet boarding areas are clean and warm. Blankets and furniture they are free to use.

About: I have been caring for dogs for more than 35 years and have owned several dogs throughout my life. I currently have a dog named Henry, who is a beloved member of my family. Living with and caring for dogs over the years have taught me. how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or patient care while you're away, I’ll treat them with the same kindness and attention I give to my own. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own dog, Henry, every day, so walks, feeding, playtime, and attention are built into my schedule. As a dog lover, I am always available to care for pets, provide a reliable service, companionship, exercise, and plenty of love for the pets I look after. As a part time teacher with summers off, I are very flexible! When caring for pets in a client's home, we follow the pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. We provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and lots of attention and affection. We also respect our clients' homes, keep them tidy, and provide updates so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

About: I’ve taken care of the dogs in the family for years, and still do with two pups of my own. I also work at a veterinary hospital as a vet tech I can tend to emergency situations, post- op care, giving medication’s cleaning bowls regularly, noticing any issues and giving them lots of kisses! I’m comfortable with senior dogs and puppies, and used to foster! I’m also CPR certified! I work 12 hour shifts every other day, so I’m open to weekend stays, days after work and the entire next day, some holidays, vacations. On days I don’t work I can stop by often to play, go for a walk, hang inside/outside or go for a car ride! Depending on your home, I’m comfortable crating if necessary, separating multiple dogs for meals, keeping them calm after eating, not leaving them unattended with toys then can rip apart or anything they can get into, including anything I might have, (shoes, purse, keys). If we go for a walk I will ensure all equipment fits properly so we don’t have any issues.

“All we can say is...AMAZING! Sarah cared for our senior dog, Murphy, while we were out of town. It was our first time leaving him with somebody other than family. He was comfortable, cared for, and given a lot of attention. She administered medicine to him, walked him, and treated him like her own pet. She send us detailed feedback and pictures at each visit. We highly recommend Sarah and will be a repeat client!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from English Mastiffs to Chihuahuas, and have gone through obedience training with my own dogs. That experience also gave me the opportunity to help a family work with their dog to improve its behavior. I love getting to know each dog’s personality, energy level, and favorite activities. Whether they enjoy long walks, playing, or simply having some company, I want to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I also value learning their routines and following their owners’ instructions to help make time apart as stress-free as possible. As a high school math teacher, my typical workday is from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM. I’m generally available for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I enjoy fitting visits and walks into my routine and making sure each pet gets the time and attention they deserve. For house sitting, I like to meet pets a few times beforehand so we can get comfortable with each other and I can learn their routines and personalities. I’m happy to communicate about scheduling to find what works best for you and your pet! I live in a condo, so I’m unable to host pets in my own home. I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stick to their usual routines and feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and anything else your pet needs. I also enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and learning what helps them feel safe and happy. My goal is to make sure your pets receive plenty of care and attention while you’re away!

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, I’ve always had a deep connection with pets. I’ve owned five dogs, ranging from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I have also had three kitties as well! My experience with different life stages of both cats and dogs means I understand their unique needs and how to provide the love and care they deserve. I have also worked in a doggie daycare/boarding facility in the past that cared for dogs, cats, and exotics! This means I have even more confidence and experience with all animals! Despite my busy schedule with work and school, pet care remains a priority. While my parents handle most of the care for our dogs, I step in to watch them when they’re away, ensuring their safety by closing off areas of the house if I need to leave. I also manage feeding and letting them outside when everyone else is at work. Additionally, I own three crested geckos, to which I am dedicated, feeding them and misting their tanks with water twice a day. I also own two cats and clean their litter boxes and feed them once a day. This routine fits well with my other responsibilities, allowing me to provide consistent care for all our pets. I am committed to following the specific instructions provided by dog owners for their pets' care. Whether it involves feeding schedules, or any special needs, I will adhere to these guidelines to ensure their comfort and well-being. If crating is required for their safety or comfort, I will implement it as directed, ensuring a secure and positive environment for the dog while following the owner's preferences.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Anchor Bay Shores

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Anchor Bay Shores is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $43 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,620 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Anchor Bay Shores. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Anchor Bay Shores. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
