âErik went above and beyond. He fully treated my dog as if she were his own, taking her out places, going on trips, long walks, etc. he was patient and agreeable to meeting her beforehand and getting her warmed up. He also left my place cleaner then I left it! He even drove me home from the airport when a ride fell through. I canât recommend Erik enough. Kind courteous guy who will treat your dog like familyâ

âLauren was amazing!! So communicative and friendly. She took great care of my old man dog and was willing to accommodate all his special care needs! Will definitely be using her again!â

About: Iâve been caring for and surrounded by animals my whole life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, relaxing on the couch, or just getting extra attention, Iâll make sure they feel safe and cared for while youâre away. Iâll follow their normal routine and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I work from home most days, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I work in the office and am home by 5:00 p.m. I enjoy staying active with the dogs and usually take them for a walk after dinner. Since Iâm home most of the week, theyâll also have plenty of time to play, relax, and go outside throughout the day. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can run and play, and theyâre welcome on the furniture and free to make themselves comfortable in my home. Iâll follow the routine and instructions you provide, including feeding, walks, medications, and bedtime habits. I want your dogâs stay to feel as normal and comfortable as possible.
âThalia was such an amazing sitter to our pitties!! They warmed up to her instantly and it was a wonderful feeling that we could relax knowing that our doggies were in good hands with her! This being our first time using Rover, it was a blessing that Thalia made the experience so much better! We trusted her with our overly energetic Fiona and laid back old man dog Flash and would love to have her again! 100% recommend Thalia to anyone to look after their fur babies! Thanks again!! đâ

âMy two digs stayed with Molly and her sweet dog and had a great time. Molly is a great communicator and my digs loved her fenced in backyard. Hilgjlyvrecommend Molly!!â

About: Iâve cared for all different types of animals for over 10 years. My fiancĂŠ, Alex, has had two dogs of his own and is currently studying animal science while working at a veterinary clinic. Between the two of us, your pets will be in experienced, loving hands and treated like our own. Alex and I are both students, so our schedules can vary throughout the week. However, between the two of us, we have time to stop in throughout the day for walks, check-ins, and care. Surprisingly, our weekends are usually the least busy, giving us even more flexibility. I prioritize keeping your petâs routine as consistent as possible. Before caring for them, I like to meet the owner and pet, learn their routine, and understand the homeâs layout. From feeding times to walks, playtime, and anything else theyâre used to, Iâll follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease.
About: I have 3 cats currently and their names are Mocha, Renato and Kazu. I have had a total of 4 years of cat experience. They are my bestest friends ever and I love them all :)!! I've had dogs in my home since I was a little kid. We had 3 dogs when I was growing up and their names were Princess, Bandit and Chloe and I had known these dogs since I was born and I miss them so much. I have taken care of a family friends' dog also and his name is Max. Since knowing him, I have always helped take care of him. We would take him on walks, I would feed him and give him treats, throw a ball with him outside and even watch TV with him! My availability is completely open! I will be able to take care of your pet friends at any time that is best for you :)! Morning - night time, I will be available. I feed my cats Mocha, Renato and Kazu 3 times every day and I clean their litter box very regularly. They are very playful so I make sure I have many toys for them so they can stay active and happy. I always have string toys and toys with bells in them for them because they are their favorites. I engage with them during play time and I always make sure they are having fun.
âKyanna was absolutely wonderful. She took care of our babies and it was very last minute. She sent us pics and updates. We would definitely use her again. We didn't have to worry, which is a true blessing. Thanks so much Kyanna.â

About: Iâve grown up with dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. Family and friends have never hesitated to trust me as their dog sitter! Iâm able to work with any dog or cat, whether that be puppies and kittens or your senior animal! Iâm currently earning my masterâs degree in Athletic Training, so I pet sit while I complete my program. My schedule is pretty open and flexible, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and care. I keep my Rover calendar updated and communicate clearly about my availability so you always know when Iâm available to help. I live in a clean, pet-friendly two-bedroom apartment with my fiancĂŠ, our dog, and two cats. Safety is always my top priority, so introductions to our pets are done slowly and only if everyone is comfortable. I carefully follow your petâs routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions. Dogs are always leashed outside, and I provide a calm, supervised environment where they can feel safe and at home.

About: Iâve had a dog since I was a baby, so caring for dogs has always been a part of my life. Iâm comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities and understand how important it is to give each pet patience, attention, exercise, and lots of love. Iâll treat your pet like family and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. Iâm a college student with a flexible schedule and Iâm available for pet care around my classes and work. Iâm available afternoons, evenings, and weekends with advance notice. Iâm also willing to do 4+ hours if needed just let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly. Iâm happy to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. Iâll follow your instructions carefully, keep their routine consistent, provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention.
âJulijana was fantastic at dog sitting! Bruiser LOVED all attention and adventures she took him on! She sent pictures and updates every day, which was nice. Julijana took great care of my house as well! I will definitely be using her again with Bruiser! Highly recommend!!!!â
About: I am a retiree who would love to take care of your special fur babies. I have been blessed with 5 dogs at different times throughout my life. I cuurently live in apartments that do not allow dogs, unfortunately. I really miss having one of my own. Therefore, I would not only be taking special care of your dogs, but it would be fulfilling for me also. I have done dogsitting for 10 dogs over the last 14 years and enjoyed those times very much. The most recent dogsitting that I have done was with 2 cavaliers for 5 years as needed that I have absolutely loved. I have also volunteered at the Capital Area Humane Society & McKenzies Animal Sanctuary. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your fur babies. There is a special kinship that I have always felt when I am with either my own dogs or others. Thank you for your consideration! I am retired so I'm available to watch your dog most any time. I miss having my own dog & would love to care for yours! I would need to care for your dog at your place as they don't allow dogs in my apartment complex. I have taken care of other dogs in their homes and it has worked out very well.
âMaKayla was very responsible and took initiative to ask questions when directions were not very clear. She took lots of pictures and included a video. It really helped to know she was taking good care of our fur babies.â


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 doesnât 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 elseâs space and prefer a clean environment so I will always pick up after myself & your pet.

I do not allow any contact without direct supervision. I DO have help at my house during boardings so keeping my son separated from timid/aggressive pets WILL NOT and HAS NOT been an issue. I will attach a few photos of the interactions between my son and pets :) Pets love boarding at my house !! My house includes a LARGE partially fenced in yard (currently being redone) along with a giant cleaned spacious garage, and a big basement all used for playtimes! My house is open for free roaming .

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grand Ledge
Helen watched our dogs, Sophie and Tala, and house sat for us over the weekend, and we couldnât be happier with how everything went. She took great care of the dogs, and it gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. When we got back, the house was left clean and virtually untouchedâit looked just as we left it. Helen was reliable, respectful, and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. We would absolutely recommend her and would gladly have her watch our dogs and home again in the future!

Morgan went above and beyond for our animals! When our dogâs stomach became upset, she made sure she got exactly the treatment she needed and nursed her back to health. I felt completely confident that our animals were in great hands and I am so happy that we found Morgan to care for them!

The average cost of House Sitting in Grand Ledge is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $39 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Grand Ledge walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Grand Ledge 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Grand Ledge 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 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.
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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.

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.
