Mary is the best, always willing to drop in even on the late notice. She is always extremely excited to see our big dog and treats him like her own.

About: I have taken care of my own dogs, neighbors dogs, and fostered dogs. I am widely available in the summer and after noons in the school year. Kind, mature, dog lover available to walk you dog or just stop in and give them some love? I have lots of availability in the summer and would love to relieve the stress that can come with leaving our doggies at home. I am happy to walk your dog, check in/let them out or just give them some attention. Lots of afternoon/evenings in the school year. I am not offering boarding at this time. I can stop by check in and walk your dog, following all of your directions. I know some of the stress of leaving our pups at home is finding someone we trust to care for them when we are not there. We just want to know they are all good!

I really appreciated Megan dropping in on my pups for a few days! Very consistent on check in times and making sure my fur babies had bathroom breaks as well as feedings twice a day. Will definitely book again when I’m out of town!

From the minute I met Abbey, I knew my dog would be well cared for. She came over for a “meet and greet”, was so easy to talk to, asked all the right questions. This was my first time using a drop-in pet sitter, but as my dog gets older, it’s becoming a better way to do things. Abbey loves animals, enjoys her job and has integrity… couldn’t ask for more!

Danielle took excellent care of our cat while we were gone for a few days. She’s very responsive, a great communicator and detail oriented. Her report cards gave us peace of mind knowing our cat was well taken care of while we were away. Would highly recommend Danielle and hope to use her cat sitting services again!

About: I have taken care of my own dog since I was 10. I have experience with watching dogs of many breeds, walking, training, and even administering medication. My schedule is very flexible. I work from home and can take clients on short notice. I am available to give your pet lots of attention! I live in a very spacious apartment with a large kitchen and living area. I love to take dogs I care for on walks and to the dog park.

About: I believe in health for everyone in your familia, even the ones with tails. I can do everything from train and run your most rambunctious puppy to gently walking or playing with your senior doggo. For me, pets of all kinds are part of the household and I really believe in treating them as such. Pets deserve to be treated well and have fun under our roofs. By the way...One of my super powers is running after escaped dogs both in Detroit and the Pointes! I do this all because of a profound love for my first dog and dear runner friend, Tyson the Rottweiler, who always kept me company and taught me the value of loyalty, love, and the idea of caring for others.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, with 7 years of experience caring for dogs. While I don’t have a dog of my own I have two bunnies I adore and, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after pets for friends and family, gaining experience with various breeds and temperaments. From puppies to senior dogs, I’m skilled in providing personalized care, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I am a recent college grad with a BFA in Fashion Design and Merchandising from Wayne State University. I am currently living in Grosse Pointe Michigan. I as I am a part time nanny, have a relatively flexible schedule, so depending on what your pet’s needs are I would love to accommodate and be of service to you and your pet.🫶 Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. I ensure pets are always supervised, and I tailor the care to meet each pet’s unique needs. I’m mindful of your pet’s routine and create a safe, cozy space for them to feel at ease. With my flexible schedule and experience, I’m able to offer attention and care that’s both nurturing and reliable, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have had a dog of my own my entire life so I am very familiar with training, caring for, and playing with dogs of all ages. I am currently available during the weekdays in the morning or early afternoon to play with, walk, and take care of your dog as needed. While working, I am always very aware of my surroundings when caring for a dog, making sure all fences or gates are locked when they are outside, ensuring there is nothing harmful they could get into, and keeping a watchful eye on the dog.

About: My name is McKenzie Frame and I am currently working towards my masters Degree in Social Work. I’ve grown up with a passion to help people and animals. I’m currently a pet owner myself. When rescuing my pug I gained a strong education on how to train animals so I could give Perry a new life. I have a lot of experience caring for animals as I grew up surrounded by many family pets. My schedule is very flexible as long as I have a week notice. During the day I do work at the hospital from 6am until 2pm. I will be keeping my pug at my parents when house sitting your pets so there will be no concerns of co adapting. Your pets comfort will come first.

About: I have had both cats and dogs in my life since I was born! I love animals and enjoy helping others care for their pets while they’re away. I have experience with administering medication and inhaler for cats with asthma, caring for pets with health issues, and pet-sitting for all types of personalities. I currently work full time so I can provide walks or visits during the week after 5pm. I prefer to house sit over the weekend to spend the most time with your pets. However, I am flexible to your needs as they arise! I always make sure to be patient with animals when providing care. I allow them to set boundaries and I follow their lead. I will whatever I can to make your pet feel as safe as possible while you are away!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Grosse Pointe Farms

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Grosse Pointe Farms on Rover is $24.48 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of July 2026, there are 3,052 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Grosse Pointe Farms. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Grosse Pointe Farms 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.

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 Grosse Pointe Farms 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!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Grosse Pointe Farms with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Grosse Pointe Farms. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
