About: I grew up with various kinds of animals of all ages.

I have a fenced yard, a safe and comfortable space for your pet to roam around, an area to walk them, and a comfortable spot for them to sleep.
About: I have an 11 yr old Rhodesian Ridgback at home, I’m an experienced dog care taker. I’ve been around dogs all of my life and they are my favorite animal. I know how to handle big dogs when walking and how to control them when interacting with other dogs, animals, and people. I grew up taking care of my own dog, and now in college I miss them so much! I would love to continue to hang out with your dogs and care for them! Home for a semester in college. Lost my dog a few weeks ago and looking to help take care of some dogs if needed! Lots of free time and taking care of your dog can be easily integrated into my schedule. In a house. The yard is fenced and even has a fenced dog run for the bathroom. Lots of space for your pet to lay and chill. Loving family will be around that are pet friendly. No other dogs or pets are in the house.

“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.”

About: I absolutely love pets. I have one and I only treat others like I want mine to be treated. I love to see them happy! I open to do overnights and weekends. I try to be flexible when it comes to scheduling and I'll accommodate to the best of my abilities. I have a very cozy home. I have a yard where they can go and exercise. Pets have freedom around the house so they can make themselves right at home!
“Caitie was excellent. She provided me with excellent updates with a photo on how my little poodle was doing as she completed her visits. She was very thoughtful with getting to know my little dog, who is cautious around new people. I will be having Caitie back next month!”

“Chelsea did an amazing job watching our cats! She had great communication (clear, prompt, kind) both before the booking and during the drop in visits, which was very appreciated! One of our cats is a bit spicy, and the other is super shy, and she did a great job respecting their boundaries while also trying to make sure they were comfy. She clearly is very familiar with cats and has a lot of experience with them. I would recommend Chelsea to anyone who needs a great cat sitter!”

“Destiny was so wonderful and helpful with our dog Bella. She gave her lots of luv and playtime. Destiny is a great dog sitter with very good communication. We received text updates and pictures. She stopped in twice, while we’re gone all day, and really spent quality time with our girl. Thank you Destiny. We really appreciated your help.”

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: I’ve been around animals my whole life from my parents breeding them when I was a kid to saving cats and dogs from the streets and making sure they get spayed/ neutered and given the best forever home. I currently work part time as a personal assistant so I have lots of free time to dedicate to my dogs as well as looking after other peoples babies. My home has a fenced in yard, 3 story home with lots of room for running. I have house sat for family and friends before and always treat your home like I would want someone to treat mine while I’m away.
“Izzywas great with Alina! I could tell that she cared and that Alina loved hanging out with her. Would definitely recommend her to take care of anyone's fur babies.”

About: Truly love animals. I can provide excellent references that will confirm that your will be loved and your home will be safe while ai am there. I I will walk your dogs in my care and play with them outside. Animals sleep with me unless the owner would rather they were caged. If medicine is required I would be diligent to administer to your pet. During the day animals sit in my lap or lay on the couch beside me. Your pet will be very loved from the beginning! I'm retired and home the majority of the time. For trips to the bank or drive thru, dogs go with me and ride shotgun safely. We will follow your dogs daily routine and adhere to any rules and regulations about your pet and your home. Some dogs would rather not go on walks and I'm good with that.
About: I have been a dog owner my whole life. From 2018 to 2020 I worked as a vet tech before starting medical school. During that time I quickly grew comfortable taking care of dogs with ranging medical conditions. Ever since I have been dog sitting for family and friends. Currently, I have a rescue dachshund of my own, Arlington. I am a resident physician so I have a flexible schedule. I routinely incorporate walks into my schedule for my wellbeing and adding a dog to walk would only make me happier. I have my own dog, so my home is filled with toys, beds, treats, and anything a dog may need. I also dog sit for family and friends and have learned that communication helps ease their minds. My photo albums are filled with pictures of dogs for that reason.
About: Hi! I’m Kel, and I’m an experienced, dependable pet sitter who genuinely loves getting to know every animal’s unique personality. I’ve been caring for pets for family, friends, and clients since I was a teenager, and pet sitting has always been something I’ve found incredibly rewarding. I know that leaving your pets in someone else’s care can be stressful, so my goal is to make the experience as comfortable and worry free as possible—for both you and your pets. I’m attentive to routines, personalities, and individual needs, whether that means an energetic dog who needs plenty of playtime, a senior pet who prefers a slower pace, or a shy cat who needs a little extra patience to feel comfortable. I currently share my home with my cats, Rosemary, Cheezel, Wasabi, and my Great Pyrenees, Marsha.. They’ve taught me plenty about the joys, quirks, and occasional chaos that come with having pets! I’m responsible, patient, communicative, and attentive to detail. I’ll treat your pets, your home, and your instructions with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are safe, happy, and well cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! 🐾 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to build pet care into my daily routine and give each visit the time and attention it deserves. I’m able to plan my day around scheduled drop-ins, walks, and house visits rather than rushing from one appointment to the next. I’m comfortable working with different routines and can follow your pet’s normal feeding, medication, play, and bathroom schedules as closely as possible. I understand that consistency is especially important , so I make an effort to keep their routine familiar while you’re away. I also make communication a priority and will keep you updated with messages and photos throughout my visits. My goal is to make caring for your pets a reliable part of my routine while giving you peace of mind that they’re getting the attention and care they need. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where I can keep pets in the environment they know and feel comfortable in. I believe staying in their own space helps reduce stress, especially for cats who can be sensitive to changes in their surroundings. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and care instructions as closely as possible. This can include feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, walks, and medication or other special needs as discussed. I’ll take the time to interact with your pet based on their personality—whether they want lots of attention and playtime or prefer a quieter visit with some gentle companionship. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, or anything else that seems unusual. If I notice something concerning, I’ll contact you promptly rather than assuming it’s normal. I’ll treat your home with care and respect, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: With my grandfather having owned a small farm, I was raised around animals and have continued to keep animals in my life ever since. I currently care for one small elderly dog. Whether your pet is energetic or a quiet companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a part of my every day life. I make sure that my dog gets daily exercise, socialization, and a safe home to be in. Caring for your pets fits seamlessly into what I already love doing for mine. Im a dog person at heart, but cat parents are welcome! I will ensure that your pets receive the loving care they deserve. Im more than happy to learn about your pet's routines if they have any. I'm available to maintain their structure, or to be the fun uncle that they look forward to seeing while parents are away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dearborn is $39 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 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 November 2026, there are 4,017 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dearborn. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
