“Michelle took great care of our girls and made our first time working with Rover a breeze! She has great communication, was thorough and on time and gave them lots of love during drop ins. We have already rebooked. Thank you for the help!”
“I had to be gone for 5 weeks on an externship and Shaira did a fantastic job looking after my pup! She’s very attentive and doesn’t hesitate to contact you with questions or updates.”
“Harper didn't warm up to her, but that's because of him not Ashton. He's only ever warned up to one other person. She was very respectful of his space and comfort level and sent pics from every visit. Highly recommend and will definitely use her services again.”
“Another amazing visit from Kelli! She treats our boys with love and compassion! Kelli is always ready with a smile even with short notice! Highly recommmend!”
“Taya was outstanding! I could see the 'boys' change from the initial stand offish to enjoying her arrival and playtime with the daily videos. Being in England it was comforting to know they were being well cared for. We will be using Taya for all our future trips.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, my dogs are my babies and I would treat yours the same. Fully fenced in yard to play fetch in and run around I’m currently a stay at home dog dad so they will never be left alone, always ready to take outside and let play with toys. I let my dogs out every couple of hours, always have food available for them and take them outside to play fetch whenever the weather permits
About: I care with love, patience, and presence. I’m experienced with both playful pups and senior pets, and I treat every animal like family. Reliable, calm, and faith-rooted. Your pet is safe with me. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my week when I’m not waitressing, serving in student ministry, or at church. I have a flexible schedule and love spending my free time caring for animals with presence, love, and joy. 🐾 I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following their routines closely, giving lots of love and attention, and keeping their space clean and secure. I respect your home like it’s my own and send regular updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. 🐾
“We needed to add an extra day when our flight was delayed and Emily was able to accommodate our last minute request. She always send photos and a quick update after each visit. We really appreciate her availability”
“This was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous, however Olivia made the process very easy. I met her the day before to talk with her since I had a brand new puppy and her potty manners are not the best. Olivia showed up at the planned times and she spent time outside with Mabel so she could play and hopefully go potty. She cleaned up the mess Mabel made in her cage, which I was super grateful for. I was relived to know Mabel was let out of her cage twice on a day I had to be out of town for work. I would recommend and use Olivia again.”
“Shawnia was amazing! Always gave great photo updates and even walked up our snowy driveway to make sure our cats were taken care of when we got TONS of snow while out of town. 5/5 would recommend!”
“Rex was great with our dog Vinny this past weekend. We felt at ease leaving town for a day trip because of how reliable he is. We loved the updates he gave on Vinny for each drop in and look forward to booking him again in the future!”
About: I have lived with dogs my entire life, all shapes and sizes. I currently own a Husky, his name is Rollo, and a Chihuahua named Yoda. Both of them are age 6 and have been solely in my care since. I understand that every dog has their own personality, especially breeds like huskies. I’m comfortable handling their energy, attitude, and unique needs while making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I'm currently working part-time but am also in between jobs so my schedule could change. However, I am currently available Sunday-Saturday from 11am-6pm. I live in a safe quiet environment that offers lots of nearby maintained county trails for dogs to walk in, including enclosed dog parks. My two dogs get along with others extremely well to provide company if wanted.
“Ann Mirette went out of her way to provide extra care for our cats. She is very reliable and hard working, we are so appreciative that she is always there to help when we need it!”
About: I grew up with my own dogs and cat in the home amd have since helped dog sit for friends and family. I've done drop ins for feeding and bathrooms breaks as well. I use to work 12 hour shifts so I know the pressure to make sure your pet gets their needs met and the attention they deserve! I currently work full-time from home. Primary availability would be evening and weekends for drop-ins but could arrange something in the middle of the day if needed. My dog has full access to the house all day and while I am gone. She sleeps with me but I do understand that some pets prefer their safe space in a crate and would be happy to help accommodate that. My yard is fenced on 3 sides and am always out there with my dog to play or sniff. We go for daily walks and get lots of playtime.
“Karen did a terrific job doing a drop-in visit on our Bernedoodle while my wife and I did a day trip to Chicago. Karen checked in with us and sent a photo of our dog while she was taking him for a walk. Thank you Karen!”
About: I've had numerous pets throughout my life and they can be a big hassle. But it's always worth it in the end. I hope I can make it a little easier and reassuring for you! I live with only one cat at the moment, which is surprising I don't have more pets. But I do take care of my sister's 2 dogs sometimes. I kinda miss having more pets, but I can't get any at the moment, sadly. So I'm hoping this a good outlet for that. I hope to stop by and help your pet when I can, or give them a good walk. I always think that pets should get a good walk/run in at least once a day, especially if it's an energetic blue heeler or something. And I always enjoy a walk too. But if that's not their thing, I'm cool with chilling too and giving all the loving and pets.

Kelli took great care of our 2 boys while we were away for the night. She did an evening drop in to give both of our cats their daily medications and wet food. She was able to give all of the medications without issues and the boys got so much love!! We've already scheduled her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Battle Creek on Rover is $14.43 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 560 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Battle Creek. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Battle Creek stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
