“We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Nancy and Paul for our two cats! They kept us posted with great pictures during their drop-in visits, which made our vacation totally stress-free. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Eleanor did a wonderful job of taking care of our old cat, Rubble. She communicated daily and Rubble was well cared for. She brought in our mail and our packages, and followed our written requests completely. I hope that she will be available again next time we go out of town.”
“Our 1st time using Rover & Rachel was awesome. You can tell how much she cares for animals. Our pup loved her visit’s & attention. We will be calling Rachel again! Thanks for making this so easy!”
“Ryan took great care of my dog while I was out of town for a week. She stopped by my house 3 times a day and walked my dog in the evenings. She sent me cute pictures which I appreciated. I was so happy that she was in good hands while I was gone.”
About: I used to pet-sit. Worked at a day-care a while ago. I've worked and interacted with all types of dogs. I enjoy what I do. I actually get really excited when working with dogs. I know they're a lot to handle sometimes but I feel like they're great fun to work with and they always make me feel better. My favorite types of dogs include Boxers, Miniature Schnauzers, Miniature Pinschers. I like all dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am really into playing fetch with dogs. I also don't mind playing with rope toys. They might tear my arms off but hey! It builds character! I'm very easy-going and I feel like with dogs you have to have a great sense of humor and enjoy the trade in order to work with them. I hope you consider me for some of your services. I look forward to chatting with you over the phone, internet, or in person! Also, I have a sweet little Mitten cat (her name is Mittens). She's a blue tortoise cat with these little white Mitten paws. My father has a black Maltese poodle named Beau... The sweetest dog in the world. I used to live with him and we were the best of friends. We still are. But we just don't see each other as much. That's who you see me with in my photos. I have pretty much open availability. I am comfortable doing overnight visits and morning/afternoon/evening walks. I'm currently in the process of trying to build clientele so I'm more flexible now than I might be in the future. But my long-term goal is to make this a full time 8 hour day. The 8-hour schedule block will entirely depend upon demand though. Whether it's broken up into different times of the day with a break in between or a full 8 hours non-stop, entirely depends upon when clients need availability. The number one most important thing about pet care is communication though. Between the owner and me. The sooner we know things, the better. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I currently provide care exclusively in my clients' homes because I believe most pets are happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. Staying in their home helps keep their routine consistent, reduces stress, and allows me to focus entirely on giving them the attention, affection, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I'll also treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. Whenever possible, I love to schedule a meet-and-greet before the booking begins. It's a great opportunity for us to get to know each other, for your pet to become comfortable with me, and for me to learn about their personality, routines, favorite activities, quirks, medications, and anything else that helps me provide the best possible care. I firmly believe that in pet care, overcommunicating is always better than undercommunicating. I'd much rather ask one extra question than make an assumption, and you can expect prompt responses, regular photo and video updates, and complete transparency throughout your time away. While I would be comfortable offering boarding in the future, I currently choose not to because I share my home with a beloved cat. My decision isn't out of concern for her behavior—it's simply because I don't want to bring unfamiliar dogs into her space. By focusing exclusively on house sitting, I can give your pets individualized care in the environment where they feel safest and most at ease, while ensuring every animal in my care is comfortable, secure, and happy.
“Melanie was quick to respond, super communicative, punctual, reliable, and kind. She worked with my trainer and myself to help my dog with their reactivity to strangers. Her willingness to help was much appreciated.”
“Claire took great care of our dog, Monte, who can be a lot to handle. We were sent pics of him playing on her visits and he looked very well cared for! She was extremely thorough on her visits making sure he was good to go before leaving.”
About: I am a traveler who wants to spend weeks home with your pet!! I have owned dogs of all ages and know how to speak the language! Woof! I am extremely available when scheduled and will let you know otherwise. I make my own schedule so I am highly available when I am not traveling! Very flexible. Always honest about my availability and what I am able to provide. I am very good at reading what a dog needs and not lazy about it. Walk at 5 am? On it. Weird feeding times? Not a problem.
About: Hi! We’re Lainie and Stephen, and we’ve been caring for dogs for years in our cozy home in Fenton near the Bluffs. We know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone you trust, so we focus on creating a calm, safe, and personalized experience for every pup who stays with us. Our laid-back dog Lucy loves having friends to play with, and we have a large fenced yard for plenty of exercise and outdoor time. We also have experience with senior dogs, administering oral medications, and caring for dogs with special needs. We treat every dog like part of the family and love sending photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles, or a quieter environment, we do our best to make them feel right at home. 🐾 We live in a fully fenced home with a safe backyard, and both of us work primarily from home, so your dog is rarely left alone and always has attention and care. Our home is perfect for dogs who enjoy play, family interaction, and a predictable routine. We especially love hosting longer stays and repeat guests, giving dogs a comfortable, home-like environment while their families are away. We also have a cat who mostly stays downstairs, so all pets can feel at ease. We can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home and treat them like part of the family! My husband and I both work primarily from home so your pet would have around the clock care. Weekends and evenings kids are home for playtime! we have a fenced in backyard, and plenty of room inside for a crate and/or bed for your pet! plenty of room to safely roam around indoors or out.
“I love Kate! Very friendly and her communication is consistent. She constantly sent pictures and Bailey loved her. Definitely helped ease my nerves in leaving her behind. Will be using her again for sure.”
“Bennett was so great with our two "high energy", playful, cuddly cats! It was clear how much he genuinely enjoyed spending time with them as if they were his own. Was so happy to have found him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Misty was great with my dog, Sasha. She came by twice a day for an hour each to walk her, refill her food & water bowls, spend time with her, and check on her. She was punctual and reliable. She gave great updates with photos. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was being well care for and looked after. I came home to a happy pet who didn’t have to be boarded or kenneled. Thank you, Misty! I’ll definitely use you again.”
“Danny and Jennifer were absolutely amazing with our pups for a really extended (two weeks!!) period of time. They came on time every day, twice a day, and saw to their basic needs, of course—food, water, love, play. But they also picked up after them, straightened the house, took the trash to the curb, kept the pups safe in the dorms, did troubleshooting on an AirTag collar, brought packages inside, gave great Rover cards, and clearly just CARED!!! They were great communicators and went WAY above and beyond in pretty much every possible way. Unsurprisingly, our pups love them! I will do everything I can to work with them again for future vacations!!”
“Stephanie has done drop-in visits multiple times for our two pups and we would highly recommend her. She keeps us updated with each visit and takes wonderful care of our dogs. So thankful we’ve found her!”
About: Hi, I’m Bella - I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. From energetic labs to a calm shorkie to now a loud doberman husky mix, I have loved every second of it!. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and it’s what inspired me to pursue a career in veterinary medicine (I’m currently in school to become a vet!). Whether your pup loves long walks or hikes, belly rubs, or just a cozy buddy to hang out with while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I understand that every dog is unique, and I make sure to always be attentive to their needs, routines, and quirks. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member like one of my own! Even with a part-time job and an internship, I make sure to prioritize time for pet care. I typically have mornings, evenings, and most weekends free for walks, check-ins, and quality time with your pup. I’m flexible and can work with your routine to ensure they’re let out, exercised, and cared for when they need it most. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a stroll around the neighborhood, or a long hike to burn off energy, I’m happy to make it work—just let me know what your dog needs! I always tailor my care to what each individual animal needs—whether that means creating a calm, soothing environment for a more relaxed or anxious pup, or providing a playful, energetic space for dogs who love to stay active and engaged. I believe in meeting animals where they’re at and making sure they feel safe, understood, and happy. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who love meeting new friends, so your pup will have the option to socialize if they’re comfortable with it. Whether your dog is a cuddler, a ball-chaser, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. If your pet needs extra medical care, I’m experienced with that too. I currently administer fluids to a friends cat and regularly handle medications and fluids through my wildlife care internship. I’m confident, gentle, and always follow instructions closely to make sure your pet stays healthy, calm, and comfortable.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fenton
Nancy and Paul were amazing. Took such great care of my kitties while I was away. Kind, thoughtful and thorough, which I really appreciate, especially as one of the kitties needs meds 2x a day. Was a relief to know they were in good hands. Provided thorough updates after each visit with pictures. Would definitely recommend!
Emily took excellent care of my babies. She was communicative and paid close attention to detail. My elderly cats and bearded dragon have a lot of special needs, but she made sure to get it all taken care of. She gave both of my kitties subcutaneous fluids without any problems. My rather shy kitty even warmed up to her enough to greet her and ask for sink water. I definitely recommend her.
Sonja was amazing! She was available last minute on a holiday weekend and did great with making me feel comfortable (it was my first time using this service). She also took time to let my cautious dog warm up, my pets were well taken care of! Will definitely recommend her and be using her again! :)

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fenton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Fenton. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% 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 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.
