“Jennifer and co were absolutely fantastic! I had a last minute request because my cat injured himself and needed extra care. Jennifer stayed with him, gave meds, and updated me with any changes. My other cat was also well loved and taken care of! I received many video and photo updates every night and I knew my babies were in good hands!!! I will definitely book again!”
“Katie did a wonderful job dog sitting for us. She kept us informed of how the dogs where doing and what they were up to. The dogs looked healthy and happy when we returned home. We would definitely book Katie again.”
“Ryan was a wonderful companion for our dog Bailey. She played Frisbee and tug with her daily. She communicated with us every day with pictures. I felt very confident that Bailey was well cared for while we were gone. I'm so happy to have found her!”
“We had a great experience! Claire was easy to communicate with, kept us updated with photos throughout the stay, and took wonderful care of our dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands while on vacation. We would definitely book with Claire again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
About: I am a very pet oriented person, having had cats and dogs in my life since I was small. I am empathetic to when pets need extra reassurance and attention and make sure to go the extra mile to make my furry friends feel comfortable and well cared for. I am currently working part time which enables me with a lot of flexibility and free time to meet your pet care needs. Chances are great I will be able to accommodate your pet visit or pet sitting schedule needs so feel free to reach out and let's get acquainted! I prefer to care for pets in their regular home space to limit their stress. I will be careful to follow all instructions and prefer written instructions for pet care and any light home care needs you have.
“Total peace of mind! It’s hard to find someone you trust with your home and your pets, but Samantha exceeded all expectations. Our dogs were happy and calm when we returned.”
“Wow! This was our first experience with Rover and we were very fortunate to find Jeremy. Everything about the experience was first class. I highly recommend Jeremy, but I selfishly do so with caution. Everyone will want to hire him and he won’t be available for us next time. Definitely a 5 star experience. Jeremy was prompt, communicative, respectful, attentive to our requests, also to the animals, and flexible in his schedule. Thank you Jeremy.”
“Bennett was fantastic! He was professional, communicative and truly looked after our lil pup. Having him taking care of our pet helped us have a great vacation. We will definitely work with Bennett in the future and he made a forever furry friend!”
“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”
About: I have had a dog almost every year of my life and I have worked in an animal hospital for 8 years. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes from 6lb yorkies to 85lb goldens! I am a retired individual who loves hanging out with my family and taking care of dogs. I clean houses during the week but that provides me a very flexible schedule as it is on my time. As I am a trusted individual to clean other's houses, I know how to be respectful of other's spaces and leave them in a better condition than I arrive. My house is always picked up so no worries of dogs eating small toys or items that could harm them.
“Not everyone loves Velcro dogs but Becca clearly gave our fur kids all the snuggles and pets they demanded. She was communicative, did a meet and greet ahead of time, and I would not hesitate to book her again! Gilly and Logan (and our house) were well taken care of!”
“Marsha cared and entertained our exuberant 1 year 3 month old King Charles/ Irish Setter for 5 days. She noticed a stick he had chewed got caught in the roof of his mouth and removed it quickly. She took charge quickly and communicated about Murphy’ care daily and reassured us with short videos. Our cat also benefitted from her expert care. I heartily recommend Marsha for house sitting and am grateful she watched over Murphy and our cat Chase. Thank you, Marsha.”
“I feel fortunate to have found Anya on Rover to dog sit my beloved beagle for a week while I was on vacation. She did a great job, and I appreciated her sending me updates during the week on how my dog was doing. If you’re looking for a dog sitter, I highly recommend Anya!”
“Claudia was phenomenal as always! We can always count on her to take care of our boys and keep the house in order while we are away. She even stepped in and communicated updates on a house project that was happening at the same time she was there. While this was not her job at all, it is so nice to have peace of mind with a trusted sitter.”
“We love having Tracy sit for us when we are out of town! She treats Jake like he is her own, and he has amazing adventures with her! We always get a ton of pictures and updates! She is literally the best!”
“Lindsey was great with our girls and cat. She communicated with us daily when she was leaving the house and getting home. She sent photos and kept us updated on how the dogs and cat were doing. It put us at ease knowing they were being taken care of. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Brittney always takes wonderful care of our pups!!! I feel so at ease knowing that they are in such good hands. We have used her for both drop in visits and house sitting. She is reliable and professional. And she genuinely enjoys spending time with the dogs! I couldn’t ask for more.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fenton
Carolann did a fantastic job caring for our dog while we were out of town. Her expertise with foster and rescue dogs was a huge asset, as our dog is recently adopted and still very shy with new people. Carolann's patience and gentleness with him set him at ease and allowed her to give him a high level of care. We would definitely work with Carolann again!
Ryan was AMAZING!! She took such great care of our cat and dog for a week while we were gone. She went the extra mile for us in several ways and always provided excellent communication. I cannot recommend her enough - our pets immediately took to her. We will definitely use her again.
Maya was amazing! She checked in on Joey multiple times throughout the day and was great at updating me with pictures of them playing, going on walks, or just hanging out at the house. She was very trustworthy and did a great job communicating. Joey loved her and was in great spirits when I got home from my trip. I will definitely be rebooking Maya for future pet care.
Amy was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, bunny, and fish while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure all of our pets were well cared for, happy, and comfortable. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. Communication was excellent, and it was obvious she truly cares about animals. Out of 10, she is definitely a 10! We would absolutely have Amy as our sitter again and 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fenton on Rover is $48.84 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,627 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fenton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fenton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fenton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Fenton 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
