“Megan is an amazing dog sitter! My anxious boy is pretty skiddish at first but he warmed up so quickly because she made him feel comfortable and safe. I would recommend Megan to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Lori did a wonderful job caring for our cat over the holidays. She responds promptly, and even helped check the mail and take out recycling. Lori is very trustworthy, and we’d use her services again. Thank you!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for pets of all kinds, from childhood through adulthood. My current furry companion is a cat who is truly the light of my life. She requires daily oral medication, so I'm well-versed in the art of administering meds quickly and efficiently—no easy feat with a cat, but I’ve got it down to a science! While my apartment doesn’t allow dogs, I’d love to take care of yours for overnight stays if I could. I’ve also had the privilege of pet sitting for friends' dogs, offering services like baths and nail trims when needed. Whether it’s a playful pup or a finicky feline, I treat every pet like family and will ensure your fur baby receives the love and attention they deserve. I work part-time and have an extremely flexible schedule, so I will not have any problems taking care of your pet's needs whenever you need me! I take great care when entering and exiting homes to make sure pets don’t get near the door and potentially dart outside. I’m also happy to assist with returning dogs to their crates after my visit to ensure their safety and comfort.
“This was a repeat booking of Cheyenne to drop in on my cats in my home. I have four cats including two geriatric bebes who need special care. She gives them their shots and pills and takes care of all their other little needs, and gives great updates through the visit cards. The cats seem calm and happy when we get home, and I'm pretty sure they like Cheyenne a lot! Would definitely recommend her for taking care of your cats!”
“Giada went above and beyond our expectations. She came out after a horrific weather event here last week in Palatine. She even sent us pics and updates of the storm damage done to our property too as well as telling us our kitty was safe!”
About: I have always loved animals and have experience caring for a variety of pets! My sweet dog Bailey passed away due to old age, and while I miss her dearly, I still love being around animals and would love the opportunity to care for yours. I currently have a 12-year-old cat whom I have raised since she was a kitten, so I have many years of hands-on experience with cats. I have also owned dogs, guinea pigs, and hamsters, giving me experience with different animals and their unique needs. I am happy to care for dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, and other small pets in your home through drop-in visits. I am also open to boarding dogs and small pets in my own home, depending on their needs and compatibility with my household. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their usual routines.. including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I will always do my best to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away! I am available Monday through Wednesday during the day and overnight for drop-ins. I am available all week for pet sitting and boarding at my home making it easy for me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs! I can provide drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care when arranged in advance. I work overnight at my job from Thursday-Saturday, so my availability is more limited Thursday through Sunday. I will always communicate clearly about my schedule to make sure your pets receive reliable, attentive care! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I believe every animal deserves a safe environment. I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s usual feeding and care routines, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I am happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I will always respect your home, your pet’s boundaries, and any special instructions you provide. I currently have a senior cat, so I will take her comfort and safety into consideration when discussing boarding arrangements. For everyone’s safety, I will make sure pets are properly supervised and introduced carefully when needed.
“Emily was very friendly and attentive to our boys. She was prompt and provided quality time, including great pictures. We highly recommend Emily if you are looking for Top Quality Care for your pets!”
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire highschool career and I'm keeping it going while I'm in college. I have cared for big, small, older, and special need dogs. I can handle any challenge the pet may bring. I grew up with cats, dogs, fishes, and Axolotls, always at least 4 animals in the house at one time! I'm at school from 8:10am-11:30am On Monday-Thursday with plenty of time for check ins morning, afternoon, and evening. I am often busy on Fridays during the spring and fall but my weekends are completely open! I am familiar with care for all types of dogs and their quirks, I give frequent walks, make sure food and water is available, and play with them. I like to provide as much comfort as I can to pets that miss their owners.
“Kimberly did a great job. She was prompt and kept me well informed on how my babies were doing, including photos. I would highly recommend her services and I would definitely schedule her again.”
“Camrynn did a great job with Gator, she came when she said she would did everything as promised and I couldn't be happier. I will definitely book her again in the future.”

“Jadyn was wonderful! She was able to keep my little guy entertained and give him some loving while we were away for the weekend. She was timely and did all we could have asked for. I’m most definitely going to book with her again in the future!”
About: I am an MSU alum graduated from MSU College of Veterinary Medicine in 2021, and a huge animal lover! I have had many dogs and cats growing up so i have always had furry friends as a huge part of my life. I began pet sitting for my parents friends when i was in grade school and continued whenever a friend asked throughout college. Throughout veterinary school I was a Rover sitter and pet sit furry friends locally as well as my classmates animals during breaks and holidays. I always make sure to discuss what is going to be most comfortable and convienient for the animal and their dog or cat mom/dad! I am a small animal resident at MSU and I am looking forward to helping take care of my communities' animals at work and in my free time!! From my career, to my beagle buddies at home, animals are my life. I am so excited for the opportunity to get to know other animal lovers in my area while taking care of their babies!! I am a full time veterinarian but looking to help on evenings, weekends, and holidays with drop-in visits, boarding, pet sitting, and walks for fellow animal lovers in the mid-Michigan area Being a veterinarian, I am very comfortable taking care of all animals and have 2 dogs of my own with health conditions that I lovingly care for each day! I will take care of your animals as if they were my own and offer as much love and commitment as I care for my patients!
“We had a short notice trip and thankfully we're able to find Anthony available. After a meet and greet with our 2 adult dogs and 1 puppy we knew it would go well. Even our puppy who is a little hesitant of new people loved him immediately. Anthony did good with sending pictures, keeping the house clean, and making sure to send updates.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and other animals since I was around ten years old. I love to interact with them and have as much fun as they do playing. I am a current student at Michigan State University diligently pursuing a degree in zoology. I have a passion for taking care of animals that I have had since I was young. I'm always aware of my surroundings and potential issues when animals are around whether for the safety of me or the animal. I am a patient and compassionate animal lover through and through.
About: I am a 39-year-old WFH dog mom with some extra time for more dog walks. I am a huge animal lover and will be sure to spoil your babies! I've had several cats and dogs growing up that were always part of the family. I know how much animals miss their people (and vice versa), so I'll do my best to ease their stresses with lots of love, attention, and activity. I can handle large breed dogs and have had a St. Bernard, Great Dane, and Golden Retriever in the past. I know how much blood, sweat, and tears goes into maintaining a home, so I will be sure to keep it in tip-top shape. I am a NON-SMOKER and do not drink more than a beer or two on rare occasions. I have used TrustedHousesitters in the past and have 3 reviews and 4 references on my profile for that website. I walk my dog twice daily and am able to work around these times. I enjoy getting them out and about. I spend most of my free time with her. If I care for pets in my home, they are leash walked as I do not have a fenced in yard; but I will mostly be walking dogs.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in DeWitt is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - DeWitt
Where to start! Kelsey is an incredibly caring and compassionate cat sitter, and has consistently gone above and beyond during each of her visits. In a weird turn of events, I happened to find myself with a lost cat as I was leaving for my trip, and she helped me to find its home and return the cat safely. When my cat’s medical issues started to flare, she was able to pivot his care to accommodate his extra needs. She gives the cats the time of day during her visits, cuddling and playing with them to ensure they are not lonely and that the visits are more than feeding sessions. My cats are always happy and surprised when I get home rather than desperate for my return, like I have experienced with other sitters. She even noted that the cats bowls were looking worse for wear on this last trip and hand cleaned them for my arrival, and they were honestly the cleanest I’ve felt in a while. I’ve been booking with Rover for many years now due to my cat’s special medical needs and my own frequent trips, and I can honestly say that Kelsey is the best sitter we’ve ever had. 10/5 stars, definitely recommend!
Gwendellyn took care of our dog and two cats, and she was fantastic! She went out of her way to make sure we were happy and communicated clearly the whole time. We could tell all of our pets were comfortable and happy with her. We're so grateful and look forward to booking her again. Highly recommend!
Outstanding experience with Sheri. She took care of both our dogs — a high-energy 1-year-old yellow lab and our 14-year-old chocolate lab who needs a bit more attention — and handled both without any issues. Sheri went above and beyond in ways we didn't ask for and didn't expect. She wiped the dogs down every time they came inside, which matters a lot with a younger lab who gets into everything. She also picked up after them in the yard — never asked, just did it. That kind of stuff you notice. We came home to two happy dogs and a clean space. No complaints at all. I would absolutely book Sheri again and recommend her to anyone.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in DeWitt is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $26 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 731 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across DeWitt. 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 DeWitt. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
