“Erin has been amazing with my cats, I couldn’t imagine the past few months the without her. She has been extremely flexible so caring. She was so helpful when my cat sprained her tail too and even willing to give her meds. Thank you for being so great Erin!”
“Felisha was awesome! She responded very fast to my request and was very professional. She was punctual for all of the drop-in visits and did an excellent job with my shy cats.”
About: I grew up helping train my grandparents’ corgi, and I still help my sister with her dog when she’s at work — letting him out, feeding him, and taking him for walks. So I’m very comfortable around dogs and can care for them when needed. That said, I naturally connect with cats and prefer working with them, so my services are focused on calm, low‑stress cat care. I work full‑time from home, which gives me a very steady routine and plenty of flexibility for pet care. I can easily step out for feedings, litter scooping, or home check‑ins throughout the day. I build visits around your pet’s normal schedule so they stay comfortable and relaxed. Evenings and weekends are usually open, so I’m able to give consistent attention and keep your pet’s routine running smoothly. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress‑free as possible. I handle feeding, fresh water, litter scooping, and any medications exactly the way you outline. I spend quiet time with your cat so they feel comfortable, whether that means playtime, brushing, or simply sitting nearby while they warm up on their own terms. I can also collect mail or some small house stuff as needed!
“Megan was wonderful with my kitties! Pastrami and Blackjack could not have been in better hands! She even put up with vomit and poop outside the box!! I will definitely be using Megan again on any of my future trips!”
About: I have had many different dogs since I was young, mostly larger dogs but a fair share of smaller dogs as well! I have a 15 yer old chihuahua, an 18 year old cat, and we rescued an 8 month old mixed breed dog! I can work with larger stronger dogs and smaller feisty dogs, I can work with high energy, low energy and senior as well! I work full time but would love to for a walk or a visit to your fur babies after my shift or later in the evening and on the weekends! I have a fenced in yard with two dogs and an indoor cat, both dogs are kennel trained and w have an extra kennel for a visitor, if in your home I will follow whatever instructions you leave.
“Season has been our cat sitter for a couple of years now. We have done a few days and long trips out of town. This week we reached out on Tuesday and left on Thursday for a long weekend, and again she was prompt and prepared. She is very communicative and sends us pictures every day. She is also good at making any adjustments to their feeding or schedule as needed. I highly recommend Season.”
“Lindsay was fantastic. She took great care of our dog while we were out of town. Very reliable - great communication with us and love all the picture updates. It made been away so much easier knowing he was been taken care of so well. Highly recommend her.”
“Maria did an awesome job taking care of my 2 cats while I was out of town. She is professional, courteous, and caring. My cats are feral cats that I took in a year ago. They are scared of people and run from anyone but me. By the time I came back from my trip, Maria was playing with them and giving them massages. I would have never guessed this was possible. In addition, I felt comforted with the daily updates and pictures she sent. I highly recommend using Maria if you are looking for a caring person that you can trust with your pets and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: I've been taking care of pets for about 10+ years now. I've had cats my whole life and have had dogs for 4 years now. I worked as a veterinary technician for 4 years as well. I can bathe, walk, feed, give medicine to almost all pets! I moved from California to Michigan and would love to get to know more of your fur babies! I am currently walking from home and almost always need a break. Therefore, spending time with more animals is always a big relaxer for me! I love my fur babies more than anything. Their needs always come first. Therefore, I will put your babies needs first as well. I can play with them, take them out, and do almost everything possible to make sure they have a stress free time with me.
About: I had a dog for 6 years and have taken care of many cats for friends. I love animals but can't have any pets in my college dorm... so I would love to take care of yours and give you peace of mind knowing that your pet is in loving hands while you're away! I'm a college student and I make my schedule so that I have a lot of free time for myself. When you book, I'll let you know the specific times I can drop by! In your home, I'll follow all directions you provide and be sure to take care of your pet the way you always do. I'll treat them like my own and follow the routine they're used to :)
“Arden was amazing for our senior/deaf kitty Gonzo. He warmed up to her on the first visit, then tried to hold her captive. He loves her and so do we! We will definitely use Arden for future trips.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7! I’ve been passionate about dogs since I was little. I am experienced in bathing, walking, playing, and caring. I am very careful, gentle, and respectful towards all animals big and small. I’m currently free most days of the week. Weekly appointments on Tuesdays would only affect the late morning/afternoon schedule. I do race within a barrel racing circuit that runs on MOST weekends. If I do not have races I will be free. This is only in the summertime. During the fall/winter/partly spring I will be back in university making time a little more sparse. During those times I will be only available on weekends. I have much respect for any environment. IF in your house, please do not be afraid to tell me anything important that I would need to know. I will always be sure to keep your puppies and kitties safe no matter what!! Animal safety is my number one priority.
About: Ive been caring for cats and dogs all of my life. My first job was at a vet office. I have pet sat for family and friends and I'm ready to care for your fur baby! I am a stay at home mom of two boys who also love pets. They are gentle and kind to animals. I am flexible for nights and weekends or drop in visits. I have a large fenced in private backyard for your pup to run off some steam and do their business. My first floor is designed for easy clean ups in case of accidents.
About: I have over 6 years of experience working in kennels caring for both dogs and cats of all ages. Along with several family friends and people in my community that I have sat for many many times. I have special training in providing medications in any form (Pills, ear/eye drops, topical medications, insulin injections, etc) and training/experience working with dogs of all temperaments (anxious, aggressive, energetic, reactive, etc.) I have a true passion and love for working with cat and dogs but am at not a point in my life where I can get on of my own, so I would love nothing more to spend some time with your fur baby! I am currently finishing up at school at Michigan State University but am commuting from my hometown for this semester. Fortunately I only have to be up in East Lansing for a couple of hours 2 days a week, and I am investing the rest of my time into my online classes. This has left my schedule pretty open for the upcoming months and I will be spending majority of my time with your pet during their stay! For those interested in boarding, I do live with my parents and a sibling, but they all love to have furry visitors and your pet is guaranteed to get an abundance of attention! When I care for someone else's pet I truly treat them as my own. I have great relationship with all of the clients I currently sit for and their pets. My main goal when sitting is to make sure that both the owner and the pet are entirely comfortable while they are in my care. To do this I try to create a very open line of communication and send frequent updates and pictures and make sure to ask questions rather than guessing how to care for someone else's pet.
About: I've been raised around animals my entire life from cats, dogs, and birds. My family has always had pets since I can remember, so I've become very comfortable in caring for them and have plenty of knowledge in animal care. Additionally, I would look after my neighbors dogs and cats when they were out of town or unavailable. I am familiar with routine potty breaks, feeding, play time, and practicing commands. I am a full-time employee at Emory Winship Cancer Institute so I will be in-person during the day Monday-Friday. However, I could manage mid-day walks for pets nearby as well as early morning walks. I’m available in the evenings and on weekends! I live in an apartment with a roommate, so I would prefer to do stays longer than one day at the owner’s home. I’m next to a park, however, so short-term stays are welcomed and pet friendly!
“We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter! She was always punctual, communicated consistently, and took excellent care of Finny. She kept his litter box and feeding area clean, and it was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I absolutely love to care and play with dogs! Throughout my time working with dogs I have given dogs medicine and now have special experience of watching them and caring for them. I have a dog of my own he is an Old English Sheepdog and lives with my parents. I have cared for cats and other animals throughout my life as well. I must note that I love big dogs and have experience with extra large dogs including Mastiffs, Newfoundlands, and Dobermans. however, no matter the size of your dog or puppy I’ll take special care of them, from Great Dane’s to Basset Hound’s to Chihuahuas! I am good with puppies and with older dogs. I do my best to give oral medication if needed. I would love to be the one to take care of your fur baby and can be flexible with scheduling! I am currently a college student in Detroit. I have classes 3 days a week. When I confirm a booking I commit to staying with the dogs as much as possible. I care for pets outside of my home by making sure they are comfortable with me, playing with them but knowing when they are aggressive or not. I also give some very good scratches.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Drayton Plains
My husband and I have had several cat sitters for our very loved cat. Kristy is by FAR the best we have ever had. She is warm and caring, reporting any differences she sees in Tully’s behavior and eating habits—and gives him the best ear rubs and cuddles. Our sweet boy loves her. We leave him in Kristy’s care with peace in our hearts. Kristy is exceptional.
Samantha was an excellent drop in sitter for my cat while I was out of town. She was easy to communicate with and I am extremely pleased with the care she provided for my creatures. Extra things like keeping an eye on my gecko's auto-water system and filling the bird feeder so my cat could be entertained really gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend!!
Our experience with having Ashley watch our cats while we were on our honeymoon, was nothing short of perfect. She made sure to ask questions about our little guys, including their preferences, their favorite toys and ways to best interact with them, and what really made us feel like she was the right choice, was she made it a priority to do whatever she could to ensure we felt comfortable. She knew our little guy Ralphie, (a very sensitive and socially needy pandemic kitten) was a concern for us when we were gone, because he really needs lots of love and attention, and she sent daily updates along with photos of both boys, and videos of playtime. We felt so at ease knowing she was there with them, and focusing on doing whatever they needed, and it really gave us the opportunity to relax, knowing our little guys were happy at home. We cannot recommend her enough and we will 100% reach out to Ashley the next time we need to go out of town. She was an absolute delight and we are so grateful to have found her!

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.

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.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
