Melissa went above and beyond my expectations. I really appreciated her taking her own time to come meet Romeo and let me show her where everything was before the actual visit. I was really nervous leaving Romeo and she did a great job communicating and doing everything that was asked over the few days and was very flexible with last minute changes to the schedule. Would definitely book again!

Matthew watched our two babies over Memorial Day weekend and he did a great job! The pups warmed up to him instantly. He took lots of pictures and communicated scheduling really well. I had no worries during the whole trip. We will definitely be using him again in the future 😊

Joyce was great! She took the time to come meet everyone and learn their routines prior to scheduled visits. Every detail was followed to perfection and the fur kids were well fed, happy and stress free when we got home. So glad we found Joyce! We can finally plan time away without worrying - we know the babies are in good hands!

I would highly recommend Rachel. We needed someone to watch our 12 week old puppy in a pinch. We have never used Rover before and found Rachel on Rover. We chose her because of all of her awesome reviews and experience with dogs. She was very quick to respond and came out to our house for a meet and greet very quickly so she can make sure that she got to know our puppy before she came out for the first time. She was really good with the puppy and did everything asked and sent lots of very good, helpful updates and many photos. This helped to put our mind at ease that our puppy was in good hands. We would definitely recommend Rachel and use her again.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals. From 2019 to 2024, I have trained and cared for my Belgian Malinois, developing strong skills in obedience training, behavior management, exercise routines, and positive reinforcement techniques. I also worked as a Shift Supervisor at a pet store for a year and a half, where I assisted customers with pet care needs, handled and cared for animals, and helped ensure their health and well-being. In addition to dogs, I currently own and care for two reptiles, giving me experience with specialized husbandry requirements, including habitat maintenance, feeding schedules, temperature and humidity monitoring, and general health observation. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments and have experience providing basic animal medical care, including administering medications, monitoring for signs of illness or injury, and following treatment instructions. My background has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safety, and the importance of providing attentive, compassionate care to every pet. My schedule allows me to provide pet care services between 9:00 AM and 10:00 PM, seven days a week. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday check-in, feeding, exercise, or an evening visit, I am happy to help. With experience handling dogs of all sizes, basic medical care knowledge, and reptile husbandry experience, I can provide reliable and attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs! Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special care instructions. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. With six years of experience training and caring for my Belgian Malinois, experience handling dogs of all sizes, and a background as a pet store Shift Supervisor, I am confident working with a variety of animals. I also have experience providing basic animal medical care and caring for reptiles. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I maintain a clean, safe environment and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.

Jessica has been fantastic during drop-in visits for our dog Buddy! It was clear the second she walked in our home that she knows and loves dogs. Buddy was instantly comfortable with her thanks to her warm and welcoming demeanor. Knowing Buddy has someone that we can trust to drop-in while we are at work is very comforting. Highly recommend Jessica!!

About: Hello! My name is Shawntel and I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had 2 dogs and 4 cats. Now I have three dogs that I couldn't imagine my life without them, with two of them being rescues. When I’m booked for house/dog sitting, my dad gets to stay and spend time with his grand-pups (: One is a German Shepard mix, another one is a Pitbull, Husky, Lab mix, and my newest addition is a golden doodle! The German Shepard is a senior so I am used to making accommodations for animals as well as giving mediations. It doesn't matter if they are young or old, big or small, boy or girl-- I love them all. I am currently a first grade teacher in Lake County which I recently took time away from dog sitting to focus on my new position. But now I’m back!! So I am available before and after the school day during the week for your animals and pretty free on the weekends. I am usually pretty flexible so if you need anything special for your animal, just let me know! I also dedicate my summers and school breaks to house/dog sitting! I truly believe that a well taken care of animal is a happy one, and who doesn't want their fur baby happy?! I look forward to meeting you and your sweet animal(s)!!

I know animals feel most comfortable in their own home so I mainly watch animals in the clients home. I do my best to give them the love and attention you give them while you are away.

About: Genuinely love spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. A teacher on summer break! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, allowing me to provide attention, exercise, and companionship. I make time for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and any special care instructions. I prioritize reliability and have some wiggle room in my schedule when needed to ensure pets receive what they need. My top priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, routines, and household rules. In a client's home, I strive to maintain the pet's normal routine to reduce stress and help them feel secure. I pay close attention during walks, monitor pets for any signs of discomfort or illness, and ensure they always have access to fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work to build trust with both pets and their owners.

About: Available for both walks and drop-in visits; early morning or after 3-4. I have a very sweet dog of my own (his name is Cooper and he gets along very well with other dogs, if your dog ever likes playing/walking with other dogs). He is full of energy, so I am used to long walks and lots of play time. I am also willing to run with your dog if you want / if they enjoy that! I have experience with puppies, special needs dogs, and older dogs. Feel free to leave special instructions so that your pup gets the best care possible. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to reach out and ask me! I’m happy to help however I can.

Alisa did very well with our kitties. Making sure our old man got first dibs on the food and kept all the boys happy with a little fresh air. She went above and beyond dealing with an ant infestation on the last day.

Olivia did an amazing job with our skittish cat. It takes a lot for him to warm up to people, and he clearly liked her — which says a lot. She was responsive, followed all directions, sent updates and pictures, and was very friendly. We felt completely comfortable while we were away and would absolutely use her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Grand River on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 523 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Grand River. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Grand River. On Rover:

  • 98% 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.

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.
