“Sheila was amazing! She took such good care of my girls and continued to update me throughout my whole trip! It was the first time I felt comfortable leaving and would definitely book her again!!”
“This was our first time having Kelly watch our cats while we were on vacation and she did an amazing job! Daily updates and pictures were sent and the house was well taken care of. We will definitely be booking again. Thanks Kelly! 🙂”
“Absolutely the best sitter Smokey has ever had. Reguarly brushed him, provided fun notes on most days about how he was doing, and performed little bits of going the extra mile each day. I couldn't recommend Saramae enough! I'm very thankful.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give Rhonda more than 5 stars, I would! She was an absolutely incredible caregiver for my cat, Luna. This was my first time leaving Luna, and Rhonda provided so much peace of mind with her detailed updates and wonderful photos. She went above and beyond just the basics—she took the time to earn Luna's trust, played with her energetically, and noted all the little details about her personality. You can truly tell she has a genuine love for animals. My sometimes-standoffish kitty even warmed up to her by the end of the visits! Rhonda is reliable, caring, and an excellent communicator. I am so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking her again in the future. Don't hesitate to book with Rhonda—your pet will be in the best possible hands!”
About: I've grown up with dogs and pet-sat for family and friends my whole life. After recently coming home from living abroad, I realized I could combine my love for dogs with the need for a flexible work schedule and begin working for Rover. My schedule is wide open. I do not have any commitments as of now. I am able to provide as much care as any dog needs. With my own dog, I take her on walks, feed her twice a day, bathe her every week, and spend all day with her. She's pretty spoiled, haha
“Isabelle was amazing! I loved reading her descriptions of her visits and the photos of my babies 💖 I was comforted on my trip knowing she was taking such good care of them. I could tell she really loves animals and my cat MooMoo definitely misses her already lolll, I'll for sure be booking again in the future 💕”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was 15. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and turtles, both as my own pets and for others.

I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, and I’m happy to adjust my care accordingly. I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away and can send lots of pictures and updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and loved!

About: I worked at an animal shelter for about a year and a half, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I became familiar with dogs’ and cats’ diets, learned how to understand their body language, and gained experience administering medications when needed. I’ve also owned dogs for most of my life and have always believed them to be incredibly loyal and loving companions. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary assistant program. Most of my classes are online, with the exception of Fridays, when I attend classes on campus. I am generally available Monday through Thursday for most of the day, as long as I am given advance notice. I am also available on weekends when needed, with advance notice. My pets at home are very spoiled, so I plan to treat your pets the same way! I always want to make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while they’re with me. I also enjoy going on trail walks or taking long walks in general, so I’d be happy to have some furry company along the way.
About: Nine years of co-loving our GSD, Shelby. Years of assisting friends and family with their pups both young and old. I’m here and ready to help. Plenty of flexibility at this point in time. Just need notice so I can arrange my day accordingly. Would like to keep jobs in area. I prefer to care for pups at owner’s home, though I do have a fenced in yard and safe neighborhood should my home be needed.
About: I grew up having dogs in my home and in my family. I’m experienced in caring for dogs that are diabetic or pre diabetic. I will care for your fur babies like they’re my own and make them feel at home. They will get plenty love and attention while they are in my care. I currently work on Monday through Thursday and at home on Fridays. I will always make sure your fur baby is cared for as directed. I have a fenced in yard and we will also go on walks. I like to get dogs out even if we go for treats.
About: There’s nothing more stressful than finding someone to take care of your pets while your away. As a member of your family, you want to know that they will be well taken care of while you’re away. Let me give you peace of mind knowing that your animals are being taken care of, the way you would. As a owner of two dogs, I know how to properly care for animals. I love all animals, and there’s nothing I like more, than knowing that your pets are safe and being taken care of while you’re away. I would give your pets the same care, love and affection that I would give my own. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets. I currently work part time. So I have a very flexible schedule. Lots of time for checkins and walks. Does your pet like looks of potty breaks. No problem. I’m happy to let them out as much as needed. My home has a 6ft privacy fence. My yard is completely enclosed. I always monitor the dogs from the window or go out with them. I also have two very friendly pups.
“Sherice is a very good sitter, I highly recommend!! She communicates very well with me about how my dogs are doing while she's there. Sherice let's me know if they used the bathroom, played, also if they are acting anxious,excited, or cuddley lol. Sherice is also very prompt, flexible with her & my schedule, & she does very well with my skiddish rescue pitbull. I will be having her drop in on my doggys again!!”

Hanan is soooo amazing! She took lots of photos for each visit, gave me detailed updates, and is just generally a really kind person! She was so kind to coordinate handing off my keys and dropping them back off to me at my place. I realllllly appreciated that after a long business trip! Will definitely be booking again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dearborn is $39 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $72 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 4,079 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dearborn. 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 .
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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% can help with daily exercise

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 .
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.
