About: I grew up caring for my family dog and now have my own dog, who will be 3 this Spring! I frequently care for my neighbors and friends animals, and have been on Rover the last two years taking care of a variety of dogs. The things I enjoy most are playing, taking frequent walks, and giving tons of affection. I currently work full-time during the weekday day. I am free most weekdays after 5pm or before 7am. My weekend availability is usually flexible and open! I am willing to care for your dog in whatever way best meets their needs! I believe it is important to cater my services to each individual dog.

My specialties include: high energy pets, seniors, puppies/kittens, medication administration, large and small pets, and much more. I care for other pets as well, do you have a reptile, fish, bird, other furry friends or plant that needs a drop in? I got you covered. Send me a message to start the best care for your pet/plant while you’re away! I work from home, I am available almost anytime! Just contact me and we will set up a time for me to drop by and meet your pet(s)! I have two dogs. A small Australian Shepherd and a Golden Retriever St Bernard mix. They are both very friendly. I can provide long walks and play time for your pets. I also take care of reptiles, fish, hamsters, plants etc.
“Emily was awesome to work with and took good care of our new puppy and older dog. She was very responsive to all our questions and made sure to schedule a meet n greet with the dogs prior to her watching them. She communicated clearly and was timely with her drop in visits. Very respectful of our home and wishes for training the new puppy. Would highly recommend her for anyone in need of an attentive and caring dog sitter.”
“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 took break a year ago but now I am back and available for your pet needs for 2026! I have grown up working in and out of all kinds of pet rescue agencies along with vet offices. I have owned all types of animals my whole life and it’s something I’ve always been extremely passionate about! I also don’t mind snuggling your animals too ♥️ I currently work from home and have all the time in the world to incorporate pet care into my schedule. I specialize in all kinds of animals! I own three indoor cats but have also had a lot of training on how to handle dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I work from home and happen to have alot of free time and a open schedule I answer calls and texts very quickly so you can depend on me to have last minute scheduling needs or wants. I treat every pet like my own. I've taken care of many different animals all shapes and sizes. I take lots of notes on what they want or need and always ask questions if I ever have any.
About: I am a senior at MSU I have classes very intermittently often 8:30-2 Monday/wends and 12-2 Tuesday Thursday! I would love to help out anyone need of a good walk! I love to walk and pet sit and I have been for many many years! I have experience with all ages of pets as well as energy and size! I am a student and work only 6 hours a week and I’m looking for an extra source of income, while staying active, I am a full time student but I try to get 10k steps everyday and would love the company! I care for pets in my home by keeping them entertained with toys and being attentive to needs and behaviors going on many walks! Making sure they have everything they need to be happy and comfortable.
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life! I always had cats and dogs growing up, and as I got older I ended up caring for lizards, fish, horses, guinea pigs, hamsters, and more! I work a very flexible full time job, and work from home when I want to, so I am very flexible! I am able to leave work and come back whenever if I am in office (besides the occasional meetings). I am willing to come to anyone’s home to care for any pets. I am pretty adaptable! I have (unfortunate) experience with dealing with unexpected events such as skunk encounters.
“Allison went above and beyond I was nervous because I had never used Rover before. Allison was awesome I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my dogs. Thank u for taking such good care of our babies.”
About: Since I was a child, I have been an animal nerd. My passion for animals is only matched by my deep devotion to caring for them and maximizing their welfare. I have greater than 20 years of experience taking care of animals. I have experience working in a dog kennel, and a humane society, as well as extensive experience doing in-home visits. While most of my experience is with dogs and cats, I have taken care of a variety of breeds, sizes and ages! I love to make an animal comfortable and slowly gain their trust through consistent action and patience. I have experience administering medications, trimming nails, and basic grooming. I work in the research field full-time during the week, but caring for pets fills my cup outside of work. I'm free weekends and after 5:00PM on weekdays. I love to spend time with animals. I care for pets outside of my home at this time due to limited space and apartment living. I prioritize your pet's safety by making sure they are secured and monitored carefully. I take pride in getting to know the pets I work with so that I can identify if something seems out of the norm for them. Confidentiality & privacy are important to me.
About: I have taken care of lots of pets growing up. My parents dog is in her senior years so getting a lot of practice with that as well. I love animals but my apartment doesn’t allow me to have a pet, I miss having one around. My schedule is very flexible right night so I can be available for most dates & times! I am also open on weekends and holidays if necessary! I live in an apartment so my home is not the best for a pet at the moment, but I am very respectful in someone else’s space and prefer a clean environment so I will always pick up after myself & your pet.
About: I have offered animal care services for 15 years. My experience includes daycare, medication administration, drop in visits, dog walks, and care for other animals such as cats, chickens, and other farm animals! I have little kids so services I offer require your dog be comfortable around kids, although their direct interaction will be limited. I have 2 dogs at my home. I currently work from home and have open availability. I am typically awake early, and can adjust my schedule around your needs with the exception of my kids bedtime routine :) I have a fenced in yard. I offer a crate if needed for eating or breaks. I offer baby gates if needed. I have many years experience and both of my parents have worked in the animal field for all my life.
About: Hi there! My name is Taniya and I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for the past 4 years for families in my neighborhood. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine I absolutely love dogs! I have a sweet pup of my own named Pepper. She’s a 2 year old toy poodle and Yorkie mix with a big personality in a small body! While she stays at home with my mom, I bring all that love and experience with me when I care for other fur babies. I treat every dog like they’re my own safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, a walk, or just some cuddle time, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work at Michigan State University, but my schedule is flexible, and I’m available Monday through Sunday for walks, drop-ins, and cuddles! If you’re located near MSU’s campus, you’re in luck there are so many beautiful trails and green spaces I can take your dog to for fun, safe, and enriching walks. I’m all about making sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, some fresh air, or a long walk to burn off energy, I’m here to help. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and needs to make sure they feel at ease. In my client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely from feeding schedules and walk times to any special care needs. I always make sure pets feel loved, whether that means extra belly rubs, playtime, or simply keeping them company. If I’m caring for a pet in my own home, I make sure they have a cozy, safe space to relax. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and offer plenty of attention, walks, and play throughout the day. No matter the setting, I treat every pet like family!
“Cody did a Great job, our dog just Loved him from the very first moment! As a pet owner, all we want is our dog to be safe and happy when we are not there, and we could not be any happier with Cody’s pawfessionalism!! Thank you ?”
About: I've taken care of a variety of pets since I was 9 years old. I have a variety of clients around the 574 area along with down where I go to college. Sitting/boarding, walking, and training is where I have the most experience with pets. I'm often the first call from family and friends when in search of pet care and training. I raised a very medically compromised puppy from birth so I have experience with those caliber of animals. Registered veterinary technician. Work Monday-Thursdays 8a-6p so I’m available Thursday evening-Sunday afternoon for a variety of different services. Can potentially make arrangements for weeknight care if needed but I wouldn’t be available until after 7 pm. I have a fenced in yard with three small dogs of my own. They are all very gentle and laid back and welcoming to other dogs in the household, with one being a puppy who is eager to have a playmate as the other two generally don't play unless out in the yard. I love getting to know the owners as well as their pets and their preferences and quirks to ensure that I can give the best care possible.
About: I am a college student at Grand Valley State University. I am home for the summer, I have grown up with animals my whole life, and I absolutely love them! Pet care fits into my routine by being something I prioritize every day. Since I have five cats and one Beagle, I have responsibilities like feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, walking my dog, and making sure they're healthy and happy. Being a college student has taught me how to balance these responsibilities with classes, studying, and other commitments. I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, get exercise and attention, and have a clean-living space. Since I care for five cats and one Beagle at home, I'm comfortable managing multiple pets and following a daily routine. In a client's home, I would carefully follow their care instructions, keep the pets comfortable, and treat both their pets and home with respect.
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 grew up around dogs my entire life! My dad used to breed rottweiler puppies! I also have a puppy of my own (she’s 1.5 now so not so puppy) but I am experienced! I got her all on my own so all of her training was with me. She earned her good citizens certificate! I know that every dog has a routine and when I come into a home I try to mimic that routine as best as i can so that the dogs feel completely comfortable I currently work from 7am to about 2pm. But I am available to let them out before work and then once I am out of work my full attention is on your pets! I also have weekends off and when pet sitting I stay home aside from a quick trip to get food or something I do not offer at my home services. I unfortunately have 4 dogs in my home and it is already so chaotic! But I will absolutely take care of your pet in your home and respect your home like my own! At a meet and greet I try to get the dogs exact routine memorized so that while your away he feels more comfortable and hopefully safe with me. I love to play fetch with dogs or tug o war. i’m also all for snuggles!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Dimondale is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $20 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 757 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Dimondale. 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.
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 Dimondale 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!
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Dimondale with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dimondale. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
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.
