“I thought I knew what a 5 star pet sitter was like, but Makayla has set a new standard! Our 2 cats and 2 dogs were WELL taken care of. One of our pitties can have door aggression, but after a meet and greet we found a way for Makayla to safely come and go while we were away. By the end of the trip, the anxious pittie was Makayla’s shadow. We got daily updates and pictures. Makayla knows how to take care of anxious pets AND their anxious pet-parents. We will absolutely be scheduling our next vacation around Makayla’s availability.”


“Kaitlyn was fantastic.! We have three large crazy and chaos menaces and she did fantastic with them all weekend. They have a lot of quirks and she did great managing them all. Our girls were taken great care of. Kaitlyn is a go to for dog sitting now. She also had great communication and sent tons of photos.”

“Cindy was fantastic! She went above and beyond to make sure our fur baby felt comfortable while we were away. She was professional, punctual and made us feel 100% at ease while we were away. Highly recommended ❤️”

About: What sets me apart is that I focus on being consistent, attentive, and calm with every pet I care for. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine and personality, so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I’m also patient with different needs, whether that’s energetic puppies who need structure and playtime or older pets who may need a slower pace and extra care. I make sure communication with pet owners is clear and reliable so they always know how their pet is doing. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I’m very organized and consistent with my schedule. I’m comfortable handling feeding, walking, cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my weekly routine feels rewarding rather than stressful. I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and cared for by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In my home or a client’s home, I focus on feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and companionship. I also pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level to make sure they’re happy and stress-free. If the owner has specific instructions, I always follow them carefully to make sure their pet receives the best care possible.
“Heather did a great job giving us updates and keeping all of our animals happy and safe. Even had to deal with a local power outage with no issues. Definitely will book again!”


About: I grew up with having pets my entire life . Not only caring for my own pets but growing up in a big family we are always willing to take care of each others. I have some experience with training dogs during my time in the service. I currently work from home so I’m very flexible with how my day to day looks I finish my work day at 5 and free on the weekends. I have a large back yard partially fenced in. With one very well behaved golden lab to keep others company. We love playing fetch and enjoying the outside as much as possible.
About: I really enjoy spending time with animals. I’ve done long stays for a few people and take care of a dog at home. I am always willing to learn more and add to my resume of pet sitting. I am currently working a part time job. I work anywhere form 16-30 hours a week because i’m in retail. I am looking for something to fill the gaps!! Unfortunately I will not be able to care for animals in my home due to my family dog. She doesn’t do well with other animals. In the clients home I would follow all instructions given and spend lots of time with your pet, all while treating your home and your animal with the upmost respect.

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs for the past 5 years, varying from Great Danes, English Mastiff's, and even including smaller breeds such as Shihtzu's. I am attending mott as a student for EMT, the schooling takes place in the mornings, so I should be available basically any time after 3pm. We have an invisible fence with buzz collars, so they dont shock the animals. I have also dealt with a Rottweiler that needed to be in a crate at night.
About: In the past I was able to dog sit for this lady whenever she would go on vacation. I loved coming home to the dog and would take care of him like he was mine! I am available to walk your dog(s) after 3pm weekdays and anytime on weekends! I can also dog sit whenever! Preferably at the owners house! If I’m sitting at your house I’m sure to take the dog out as soon as I come home from work and even come home to them on my break to let them out.
About: Hi! My name is Kendra and our family of 3 owns a house with a fenced in back yard that is awaiting your pup! I’m excited to continue the dog daycare here in Saginaw and hope you choose our home for your best friend! Send us a message with any questions or concerns and I will gladly get back with you when I can! We have a Shiba Eskimo. Dog care is part of our everyday routine. We love our dog and routinely let her out at regular times throughout the day. Usually morning, afternoon, evening and night. Your dogs environment will be a hit! We have a dog park right outside our backyard, with plenty of fun to be had. Our dog is super friendly and our loving kids will make your dog feel right at home.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always had a big heart for them. I have experience house sitting and caring for pets for family members, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work two flexible jobs that are understanding when I need time off for pet sitting. If I accept a booking on a workday, I’ll always communicate my schedule in advance and ensure your pet receives the love, attention, and quality care they deserve. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I’m committed to making it work for both you and your pet. I currently have six cats, so I’m very familiar with caring for multiple cats and keeping them happy and comfortable. They eat twice a day, always have dry food available for a little snack if they’re hungry, get treats at the end of the day, and have plenty of toys and cozy beds to enjoy. I also have experience with dogs—I grew up with them and have cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs through pet sitting. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different personalities and will always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and dedication for their well-being. As for special skills, I am patient, responsible, and have great communication with both pets and their owners! Pet sitting brings a bit more structure and joy to my weekly schedule! My work is pretty flexible and allows me more free time on the weekend. It’s extremely important to me to allocate time for feeding, grooming, playtime, and walks, ensuring your furry friend gets the attention and care they need.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal caregiver with a lifelong passion for animals of all kinds. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and a wide variety of other animals, including those with special needs or unique personalities. Being a wildlife rehabber for over a decade means I am accustomed to all species of animals and am familiar with proper handlling techniques, medical needs, dietary needs etc. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, medications, cleaning, enrichment, and providing plenty of individual attention. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets, and I’ll treat yours with the same care and respect I give my own. I work during the day typically from 1230-2pm. Available any time after that to help however possible. I am available most days of the week. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely for feeding, medications, walks, enrichment, and household routines. I’m experienced with different personalities and temperaments, and I always take the time to let animals become comfortable with me at their own pace. I keep their environment clean and secure and provide plenty of attention while respecting each pet’s individual needs.
“1st time using Rover and glad we did. Jamie was reliable and a great communicator. She was able to quickly bond with our dog and provide the necessary exercise needed. Since we were traveling and in Charlevoix MI for our son's wedding, Jamie was able to quickly put us at ease by providing great care for our dog.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 259 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chesaning. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Chesaning 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 Chesaning 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 Chesaning 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
