About: My name is Camille and I’ve been a pet lover and pet owner my entire life. I grew up caring for both dogs and cats, and caring for these kind souls brings meaning to my life. I am here to accommodate your pet’s specific needs and strive to give my all to your soul animal. I am also a highly active person who loves to hike and walk, happy to take your pet on adventures with lots of chances to snif, run, and play. Aside from being a part-time barista at Higher Grounds Coffee in Traverse City, caring for animals is my favorite way to spend my time. My schedule is very flexible and subject to change. I prefer to care for pet’s at the owner’s home, but live in a fenced in yard with a dog of my own in the case that daytime care is needed.
“Vesta took great care of our and cats at our home. She sent photos of all of them and kept us updated when she arrived and left. It was awesome that she came to meet them before the booking so we knew they’d be comfortable with her. Pepperoni thanks you for the couch snuggles, Vesta!”
“Christina was a pleasure to work with. Our pup had a great staycation with Christina. She provided daily updates with pics, provided Aspen with a lot of exercise, walks and hikes. We came home to our home just as we left it. We would definitely use Christina again in the future.”
“Had a great experience with Dave watching my senior pup while I was on a work trip. He was very clear on his schedule and the attention he'd give my dog. He sent frequent updates and sent a bunch of pictures. Everything went great and I came home to a happy dog.”
“We had a great experience with Lorena. We needed someone last minute for an overnight stay, and she was incredibly responsive and easy to coordinate with. Communication was prompt and clear from start to finish, which gave us peace of mind. She kept us up to date during the stay which was much appreciated.”
“Madison was phenomenal with Rigel and Inara. She was attentive and went above and beyond checking in on them and keeping them entertained. I greatly appreciated her watching them.”
“Heather is absolutely wonderful!! She is very caring. Izzy and Remi absolutely loved her. She has excellent communication skills, is very punctual and I swear my house was cleaner than I left it. I will definitely ask her to watch Izzy and Remi anytime I need to go away! She is very trustworthy. I highly recommend Heather to watch over your 4 legged family members. I loved the pictures, updates and videos as this was my first time leaving them.”
“Paige was timely, communicative, and very capable! My dog had to go to the vet right before we left for our trip and ended up needing medication, a cone, and wound cleaning that we didn’t anticipate before hiring Paige. She took on Champ’s extra care requirements without hesitation. She left our house clean and exactly as I left it. I know champ (and my house) was well taken care of!!”
About: Hi, I'm Michael! I'm a pilot based in northern Michigan with a schedule that changes week to week — which means I often have open weekdays when most sitters are booked solid. I keep my Rover calendar up to date so you'll always know when I'm free. When I'm on, your dog gets real attention, not a rushed check-in between errands. And as a flight instructor, safety and routine are basically my personality. I live with five dogs and two cats so it’s in my daily schedule as far as caring for others. I am a Flight instructor in Traverse City and I make my schedule a week in advance. I can edit my schedule as I please to provide the best care for the pets I always make sure they have plenty of food and water throughout the day. I make sure they are never lacking on attention and I make sure they stay within the boundaries assigned to them.
“James was very comfortable with our dog and our dog was comfortable with him. He gave him lots of attention and exercise. James is also very nice, flexible and accommodating especially since we had a last minute request. I very much appreciated his help!”
“Erin provided excellent care for my dog while I was away. She updated me on how he was doing and went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and cared for. My space was clean and ready to receive me when I arrived home. I reommend her without reservations and will definitely schedule with her again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grawn
Stephanie blended right away into our furry family, even winning over our two "scaredy cats" within a couple of days! Her playful and peaceful energy was perfect for them and her responsibility, attention to details, and genuine care for them and my home put me at perfect peace to be away from home. For the first time, I felt like I had a relaxing vacation and so did my pets!
So happy we that found Stephanie on Rover. She is everything you could want in a pet sitter. She is good with animals, prompt with responses, keeps you informed regularly, house was clean when we returned, and she takes pride in what she does. We look forward to working with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Grawn is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $98 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Grawn 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 Grawn 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 Grawn 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 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.

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.
