About: I have cared for animals my whole life- from cats and dogs, to lizards and snails, and even horses! I love all of them and will give them all the attention they deserve. I am free weekends, evenings and nights mainly but can be very flexible. You just let me know what you need and I'll try to make it work. I do require advanced notice however. I am happy to care for pets in your home however is needed/desired during the day time or evenings. I do work most days so I cannot always guarantee a full day of availability but I can do several drop-ins a day!
“Greyson was absolutely wonderful! They stayed at our home for four days to take care of our dog. They are reliable, kind, and attentive to every detail of our dog’s routine. They sent us daily updates and photos of our pup who looked so happy and relaxed in every picture! When we got home, the house was spotless, and our dog was calm and clearly well cared for. It’s a relief knowing we can trust someone now to take great care of our home and our dog. We’ll definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter!”
“Kelly did a spectacular job as usual :) My kitties LOVE her and she's also taken the time to gain the trust of my very fearful kitty. She now will sit next to Kelly to get petted and purrs! I also had a bit of a tricky chicken set up because I was in the process of acclimating my new chicks to my older hens. Kelly had no problem adjusting to the changes and she made sure the new chicks and hens were getting along and also made sure the chicks were settling in each night(which meant being very patient while they jumped up and down from the roosts multiple times)! There was also an unexpected situation that occurred in my barn and Kelly had no problem handling it. Kelly communicated any questions or concerns she had and sent a lot of updates and pics. My house was clean and all of my fur and feather babies were happy when I returned home! Kelly is fantastic :D”
“This was my second experience utilizing Rover house sitting. Communication was excellent with photos and prompt replies. She even mopped the basement and cleaned the kitchen sink area, which was an added bonus. My understanding was that she and her husband would stop by 4 times a day and walk the dogs. The house smelled good upon arrival and my pets appeared to be in good health & spirits. In addition, she is a retired vet tech. So, yes, I would consider having the couple house sit again.”
“Elton was great with my cat and dog and took great care of the house. He's also just generally a delightful person. I look forward to using him again and recommending him to friends!”
About: I've taken care of neighbor and family pets since the 1990s, mostly cats and dogs. I'm comfortable with daily care, feeding schedules walks, playtime, and helping pet feel calm, safe, and well looked after. I make my own schedule so I'm able to help watch pets almost anytime. Weekdays, weekends, days, nights, all sorts of times. Hit me up! I have a large fenced yard and one dog who gets along well with others. When I'm caring for a pet at its house I'm very respectful of the space.
“Jennifer was WONDERFUL. This is the first time we’ve left our two dogs with someone we didn’t know and we were very nervous. Jennifer completely put our mind at ease and sent us pictures/updates daily while we were gone. She stayed in our home and left it spotless. I would absolutely book Jennifer again for our pups!”
“Rani & her husband took such great care of our fur babies! They stayed in our apartment and were very respectful of our space and keeping it clean/tidy. We got numerous updates with photos daily. They truly cared for our pups like they were their own. I felt very at ease and would highly recommend!!”
“Bridget did a great job with both my dogs. She was very responsive, and communicated well and sent lots of pictures! She exceeded my expectations and will definitely be rebooking her for future trips!”
“Sara was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and updates of our pups, and was even willing to deal with a power outage while watching them. I will definitely be booking her to watch or walk my fur babies again.”
“Gabrielle took great care of our dog and cat while she was house sitting for us. She sent lots of updates, which we appreciated for peace of mind. When we returned home, our house was in excellent condition- probably even cleaner than how we left it! Overall, a great experience having her house sit for us while we were gone.”
“Jackie is amazing! She watched my Huey at my house for 5 nights. Huey loves her. She kept me up to date daily with pics and texts. She’s so sweet. I was away for my son’s wedding. I never worried. Then, to top it off she left me a beautiful flower bouquet and huge Welcome Home balloon…thanking me for letting her watch my little guy. She is my go to now! I’m almost afraid to say all this because she’ll be booked! Please have Jackie watch your fur babies. She’s a treasure. 🥰”
“Jennifer was the best! She went above and beyond taking great care of my elderly dog Braylee (and my home) while I was out of the country for 11 days. She sent photos and updates which gave me peace of mind while traveling. She will definitely be my 1st choice to dog sit again in the future!!”
“Megan provided exceptional care for our pets and looked after our home while we were out of the country. Both of our pets clearly liked Megan a lot. Despite our dog's many needs, Megan adhered to our instructions flawlessly, ensuring his well-being throughout. Her regular updates kept us at ease and her communication was excellent. We highly recommend Megan to anyone seeking dependable pet care!”
“Rafael took great care of Lucy over a long weekend. He also cared for the home really well and was very responsible. He kept me in the know everyday and shared photos. He also took it upon himself to clean up right before the end of his stay. Overall a great experience for both Lucy and for us.”
“Jada did a phenomenal job watching our two dogs! She provided thorough and timely updates every day, and she truly put me at ease knowing our dogs were in good hands. Couldn’t ask for a better dogsitter!”
About: Hello! I love dogs! I’ve had two dogs in the past, one dog for 8 years and one for 6 years. Since my most recent dog passed away, that's opened the opportunity for me to watch peoples dogs. I’ve volunteered at the Huron Valley Humane Society. Completed dog walking training, blue dot training and problem dog not allowed out with the general public yet training. If you want your dog not only watched but showered with love, I’m a great choice. I work from home, so have great flexibility. Having a schedule that fits your dogs shouldn’t be a problem. Hope you find what you are looking for. Your dog will be showered with love. Happy to have them sleep in the same bed if they are allowed. I love making dogs feel special.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Belleville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Belleville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Belleville 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
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.
