“Rhonda was absolutely the best. She made our cat, Leo feel safe and cared for while we were gone for two weeks. She kept us updated after each visit and sent pictures to show us how well he was cared for while she was there. Thanks again Rhonda! We will use you again in the future. Loved the pictures ❤️”
“Nurra was wonderful with my two dogs! I made a last-minute request, and she was kind enough to accommodate it, which I really appreciated. She was professional, polite, and a great communicator throughout the drop-in visits. She even went the extra mile by taking the dogs for a walk. I felt comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands and would happily recommend Nurra to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Sydney did an excellent job with our fur babies. She’s very reliable. She sent us lots of photos, which we love, and we could tell our cats loved her too. We will definitely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommend.”
“Chelsea was wonderful. She allowed me to see her space and meet her prior to dropping off my kitty. During the stay, she provided me updates and photos. Chelsea was really great with my kitty and would definitely rebook :)”
“I would HIGHLY recommend Ciara to anyone looking for pet care of any kind. She takes such amazing care of Angel everytime I board with her. I get lots of pictures and video updates of her and she is played with and watched 24/7. I trust her fully and she treats my cat as if it were her own. Ciara goes above and beyond any pet sitter I’ve had. Angel & I will miss you in Nashville!”

I always follow the owner’s instructions and routine to make sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work during the week, but I’m fully available on weekends and have plenty of time to give your cat the care and attention they need. I’m happy to work around their usual feeding, playtime, and care routine. I always make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and respected in their own space. I follow their usual feeding and litter box routines, keep their area clean, and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I’m patient with shy or nervous cats and let them come to me at their own pace. I also make sure doors and windows are secure and follow any special instructions from their owner.

I am a licensed veterinary technician and also train dogs and their families addressing behavior issues. Do you have cats? I would love to stop over and feed them, clean litterboxes, medicate, or just play and love on them! When available I am able to do dog walks while you are gone for an extended about of time I have loved animals since I was a very small child. I always wanted a pet, no matter the kind.

Meet my pets Chicago is a 4 year old playful husky mix who enjoys sunbathing and meeting new friends, About my yard I have a completely fenced in chain link backyard.

My experience administering medication Absolutely. ---- vet tech here! LoL We took a break from sitting for a while when our dogs became seniors. We now have a dog that enjoys having friends over again! I also offer drop in services and would love to take your dog for a short walk, training walk or play time in the backyard if you need it! If your dog is staying in my home I would likely be here the entire time. I do require dogs are able to stay in a crate or a secure gated room when alone so the dog are separated when unsupervised.
“Faith checked in on our cat while we were out of town for spring break. There was a little hiccup at the beginning but we figured it, and after that every went smoothly. Faith was very honest and accommodating which I both appreciate very much. Communication went well, and the regular picture updates showed clearly that our cat felt comfortable enough around Faith to come close engough to get petted and to play. We arrived home to a well cared for cat and home. Thank you very much. When we need a sitter again and our schedules line up, I'm booking Faith again.”

“My cats can be a little high maintenance, but Madeline did a good job caring for them. She reached out proactively with questions and concerns that popped up during her visits. I would have appreciated more substantial written summaries after each drop-in visit, but I’m also just anxious when I’m away from my kitties.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Dearborn Heights
I can’t say enough about Safa! I had to leave on a 10-day trip, and I was so worried about my cat’s wellbeing in my absence. Safa stopped by before I even finalized my booking with her. She spent time with me learning about my cat’s habits and listening carefully to details to know how to handle her while I’m gone. During my trip, she was very communicative, kind, and helpful. Her commitment to show up at the designated times and ensure my cat gets fed and cared for made me feel at ease, and it surely made my cat happy and comfortable in my absence. I highly recommend Safa, and I can’t thank her enough for her service. Will definitely hire her again!
Sarah took excellent care of my girls. This was my first time leaving them. They are independent young cats, but have not been left alone. Sarah came before for a meet and greet and to explain what she does during her visits. I received updates and photos as well. We will definitely be requesting Sarah in the future. ❤️
Sophie is the best! She was able to accommodate a last minute drop by for my dads cat, she was the only one in the area that helped me and I’m so grateful! She followed all instruction, made sure to give his cat some love and communicated very well. I highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Dearborn Heights is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $17 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 634 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dearborn Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
