“Sarah was punctual and very reliable. She provided detailed daily updates on litter cleaning, feeding, and playtime, along with plenty of photos and videos. My cat can be a bit shy, but Sarah was patient and clearly comfortable caring for her. Communication was excellent throughout the five days I was away. I would definitely book her again!”

I will follow the rules or requirements from the owners to take care of pets. I will keep the living area of pets as clean as possible.
“Theresa was an excellent cat sitter! She was reliable and provided great communication and updates. My cat adored her and appreciated all the pets and TLC. I would not hesitate to book her again.”
“Kara did a great job with a drop in visit for my anxious German Shepherd! She made the process so easy and took great care of my pup. Looking forward to booking her again for future drop in visits!”
“Alexi was wonderful! She and River got along great, she was on time and communicative for every visit, overall a lovely and reassuring experience that eased our minds while we were away! Plus, the pics were adorable! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm, and at one point we had 12 indoor dogs, from tiny Yorkies to Great Danes. They were never “just pets” to us; they were family, and that’s how I’ve always believed animals should be treated. I’ve also cared for cats and have experience dog sitting, so I’m comfortable looking after pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for yours the same way I’d care for my own. I take classes two days a week and spend the rest of my time at home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention and care. I'm also available most weekends, making it easy to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for by following their usual routine as closely as possible. I'll follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions provided by the owner and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I don't have any pets of my own at the moment, so I truly enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the love and companionship they deserve. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Erica took great care of the kitties. They loved her instantly and she is very responsive. I was able to relax while I was away knowing she was there to love and care for my fur babies. Highly recommend her to anyone needing care for their pets!”
“Maddy was great. She did a great job of taking care of Eunice, and making sure that she was well fed and watered. She also did a great job with the litter and overall tidying up. Loved the pictures she sent. Highly recommend her!”
“Shiyuan was amazing! She was so thoughtful, reliable, and kind. She took care of everything perfectly and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. We really appreciated how much care and attention she gave. I’d absolutely choose her again!”
“Jessica took such great care of our sweet giant dog. We so appreciate the detailed communication, the thoughtful questions and accommodating the dynamic needs of our pup. She went up and beyond, thank you!”
“My two cats don't always get along, so Katelin had to put in a lot of extra effort. Finding a hiding cat in an unfamiliar home to keep them separated is not a normal sitter task. I appreciate the effort she put in to keep my babies safe and happy. Thanks Katelin.”
About: I have taken care of dogs professionaly for the past two years. throughout this time I had plenty of experience working with all kinds of dogs, from puppies to seniors and small to large! I am very flexible with my schedule day-to-day. I am actively looking for full time employment so my availability has the potential to change, but I am open to fitting walks and visits into my schedule as needed. When I offer services for clients and their pets, something I will do every single time is rinse and refill their pets water. If needed, I will give the pet food or treats as requested by the owner. If there is a mess or accident I will clean it right away!
“Maria was available on short notice and did an amazing job. I was heading out of town and she not only came over for a meet & greet the night of the booking, but she was able to check in on my dogs over the upcoming weekend.”

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Mochi! 🐱💕 Sarah took such amazing care of her while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind (with her detailed notes and cute pics/videos too!). She even went above and beyond by helping take care of our home during her drop-ins 🏡✨ We came home to a happy kitty and a well-cared-for house. So grateful and would absolutely recommend her! 🥰🐾
Madalyne is so good with my skittish kitties. She managed to get them to come out from hiding and one even sat next to her. This is a big deal! She takes great care with the food and litter as well, making sure my cats are well taken care of. Gives me such peace of mind when traveling.
We absolutely loved having LeAnna take care of our cats! She was so sweet and caring with all of them, and we really appreciated that she was comfortable giving our senior cat her medication. It made being away so much easier knowing they were in such good hands. She kept us updated and we could tell our cats were happy and well taken care of when we got home. We would definitely have LeAnna watch them again!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Farmington Hills on Rover is $18.19 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
