About: I have a love and passion for animals. I love all breeds and various animals. Pets make me happy! I have raised extra large, large, medium and small dogs. I have also always had cats growing up. I have lots of experience with various dogs and cats and know what signs to look for if your pet is in distress. I am an educator off for the summer so my schedule is very open and flexible. I can't wait to help your pet have a wonderful summer and ease your worries. Your pet is in good hands with me. Even after summer is over, I still plan to continue my services. I will only walk your pet on a leash if that's what is necessary. If you have a fenced in yard, I will still always monitor your pet to ensure he/she is safe. I will give your pet lots of attention with pats, hugs and kisses.

About: Starting my experience with volunteering at my local veterinary clinic after school, starting in elementary to high school, that i now work part time at!

About: As a stay-at-home mom and lifelong dog lover, I bring constant care, attention, and a calm, nurturing presence to every pup I walk or care for. I’m home full-time, so your dog will never be left alone or rushed. I specialize in gentle walks, giving extra patience to puppies and the special care seniors need. Whether that means slower walks, meds, or cuddles on the couch. I treat every dog like family and believe in clear communication with pet parents, so you always feel at ease. My kids start school, and I will be available from 8am-3pm M-F. I am available for evenings upon request just depending on my kids sports schedule. I’m also free Fridays 8-8pm and weekends too! In my home, pets get a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible. Meal times, walks, play, and downtime—to help them feel comfortable and secure. I offer plenty of attention, snuggles, and supervision throughout the day, and I’m home full-time so they’re never left alone for long. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it with the same respect and care I give my own. I keep everything clean, follow your instructions, and make sure your pets are happy, safe, and well loved while you’re away. Communication is key, so you’ll get regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind.

About: To be completely honest, our home operates on a strict policy of maximum fun and zero boredom. My Belgian Shepherd is are high-energy, Olympic-level players, meaning your fur baby will always have a partner for zoomies, tug-of-war, or aggressive backyard scouting. For the Energetic Pups We run, jump, and play until they forget what a couch even looks like. & If your dog prefers to just watch the chaos from a comfortable distance, they will be showered with endless belly rubs, ear scratches, and VIP treatment ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Whether they are here for daycare or an overnight boarding sleepover, I promise to treat your dog like absolute royalty (and send you plenty of goofy photo updates to prove it). Book a stay and let the fun begin! ❤️ I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays. Summer times the balcony door stays open so theyre free to come in and out. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog with frequent potty breaks per your request, just inform me before hand.

About: I want you to know that I have experience with giving animals pills. I have also watched dogs with trauma who have a hard time accepting new people because I have a calming presence. Not officially trained but have taken care of dogs through seizures and I'm always willing to learn more. I currently work full-time during the week between the hours of 3pm-10pm on monday and 1pm-10pm Tuesday through Friday so I am always willing to visit during the midday to check on your furry babies. I can always watch them if you have a weekend where you are away. I will not be able to take care of pets in my home because I am not allowed dogs and currently already have the max number of cats.

About: I have cared for and owned all different kinds of animals. I have been in the horse riding industry since I was 8 years old so I am not skiddish towards other animals. I truly have a passion for animals and I am very able and willing to do what it takes to take care of your beloved pets!! I am currently a full time student, however I am a commuter so I have the ability to travel freely in between classes and outside of classes. I am on summer break from May-September and have a virtually free schedule for whatever you may need! I am more than happy to confine to whatever you may need me to do in order to give your pet the best care possible. I have slept over, done drop ins, walks, etc. with other dog and cat sitting jobs and I am very comfortable.

About: Being a dog walker allows me to combine my love for animals with physical activity and the outdoors. I'm excited about the opportunity to care for and spend time with furry companions while providing them with the exercise and attention they need. I would love the opportunity to help out with your dog. I unfortunately am not close enough to my job that allows me to let my dog out during the day. I am at work by 8am and hope by 4:45. It can be earlier if needed. I am a teacher and have the lovely teacher schedule. Overall, my approach to pet care is centered around meeting their physical, emotional, and social needs to ensure they live happy and fulfilling lives as valued members of the family.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. Personally I have always had a dog as a pet. I am always the person family or friends call when they need someone to watch their pets. I currently work a fully remote full time job. I am able to tend to your pet in the morning and evenings. Occasionally I am also able to take breaks at work where I could get a walk in. I am able to care for pets at your home or in my home for the day if your dog gets along with cats. They say dogs are the best judge of character and I've never met a dog that didn't like me!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs through personal pet-sitting and have developed a strong understanding of their daily needs, routines, and behaviors. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in giving pets the same care and attention I would give my own! As an at-home college student, I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins while ensuring pets receive all of my attention and affection. I can happily care for your furry companions any day of the week, Saturdays, and Sundays as well with plenty of room for sleepovers and weekly stays! I understand how important it is to trust somebody else with your pet, and I like to take that responsibility very seriously. I make sure to pay close attention to routines, behavior, and special instructions given to me by owners to ensure the best possible care. Communication is crucial so I enjoy sending updates by phone to clients so they know their pets are happy and well cared for. When going outside, dogs will be leashed for walks and supervised at all times!

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Alexis! She came to our home to care for Koda and Lira while we were out of town, and she was absolutely wonderful. She was incredibly kind, punctual, and attentive to our girls, making sure they received plenty of love, attention, and playtime. It's always a little nerve wracking leaving your pets behind, but Alexis truly put our minds at ease. Knowing Koda and Lira were in such caring and capable hands allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. We are so grateful for Alexis and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets. We wouldn't hesitate to have her back!

Cerra did an amazing job! She was very accommodating last minute and was willing to come meet Abby before so she could see her beforehand. Abby is very cautious of people she doesn’t know but warms up fast and Cerra did a great job interacting with her. I would recommend her to others and book again if ever needed :)

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Auburn Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Auburn Hills is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $39 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 October 2026, there are 3,574 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Auburn Hills. 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Auburn Hills choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Auburn Hills with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Auburn Hills. On Rover:

  • 90% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
