“Kylie exceeded my expectations during a drop in visit with my 15 week old puppy. She is also very accommodating and great with communication. I’ll definitely request her for future visits!”
“Lauri is great with our cats and we are so happy to have her as our sitter. I always feel at ease leaving our cats in her care, as she is reliable, communicative and thorough. Both of our cats are comfortable with her as well - including one who is aging and has an ever growing list of medications and quirks that Lauri is patient and wonderful about. Highly recommended!”
“My kitties appreciate Chetoya’s visits. They’re super shy but will come peek out and eat when they see her❤️❤️ She is responsible and always responds quickly. Thank you!”
“Flawless! Abbey is expert at handling highly hyperactive pets when they are meeting new caregivers. Our pitty has huge attention-seeking behaviors etc. Abbey handled her flawlessly. Our dogs were clearly well cared for.”
About: I've had dogs of my own in the past! All of my dogs loved me and I have taken care of my friends dogs, pups! I am available after my current job. I dont have a car so I can scooter to your house. I may not answer ASAP so bear with me. I am very good with animals. They tend to enjoy being around me. My parents and people around me call me the animals whisperer lol.
“Khelsi cat sat for me for 21 days over the winter break. My cat is shy but she warmed up to Khelsi within a few days and began playing with her. Khelsi was very communicative with me throughout my time away and sent me lots of pictures and updates despite the fact that I was in a very different time zone and could not always respond to her right away. She also periodically cleaned up around my apartment and left a sweet gift for my cat and me when she left. This was my first long trip away from my cat and stopped being anxious about her because I knew she would be safe and cared for with Khelsi watching her. Thank you for everything, Khelsi!”
“Peyton provided drop in visits for my elderly Shar Pei for a 10 day vacation. She is priceless. Lots of communication, photos & videos. Yoda loved her. I am sure many times she spent more than the allotted time living on him. She understood & provided for the needs of a senior dog. I definitely recommend Peyton & will call on her again.”
“Monica was great with my kitties! I will definitely rebook with her for future visits. It was great to feel that my furbabies were well looked after while I was gone. Great, consistent communication - photos, videos, updates, etc. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who would love the opportunity to care for your pup. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when someone else is taking care of your dog, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to accommodate your dog’s individual personality and routine. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra attention during the day, or a quick potty break and playtime, I’m here to help! I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout Grosse Pointe, Grosse Pointe Woods, Grosse Pointe Farms, Grosse Pointe Park, Grosse Pointe Shores, and St. Clair Shores. I’ll always send updates and photos so you know how your furry family member is doing while you’re away. ❤️ I can’t wait to meet your pup! I am available Monday through Friday from late afternoon through the evenings for drop ins and walks. Saturday and Sunday I am available throughout the day! I have had help with a professional trainer for my own two dogs so I am comfortable with crating, fenced and unfenced yards. As well as any other requests you may have
About: Aspects that sets me apart from other sitters is the space that I create for connecting and playing, and also, applying healing touch towards animals. My availability is wide open between 10 AM and 6 PM EST, Monday through Sunday! I'm happy to provide loving, attentive care for your dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, companionship, and ensuring their comfort and well-being while you're away. Although pets aren't allowed in my home, I will gladly take care of them in their own environment, while maintaining cleanliness and respect for your home.
About: I’ve been taking care of a wide range of animals since I was young. Whether it was cats, dogs, pigs, hamsters, fish- I’ve always made sure they were living the highest quality of life. I’ve dealt with dogs with a lot of health issues such as epilepsy and brain damage. Cats with hairball issues or ones that take a lot of medication. The elderly and the young. No matter what I always put their well-being first. I plan on doing this full-time for right now so I am available any day any anytime of the week. My schedule is very flexible. At the time, I am not doing pet care at my home but when I am at a client home, of course, it is up to what they would like. Though, for the most part, I am very laid-back and I have no problem with your pet sleeping or being out with me. I’m fine with taking them out as much as they need to go. Also, if they have certain schedules for things, I make sure I am right on time for it such as medication or feeding.
About: Growing up in a ranch in Arizona with five dogs (including two great Danes and one Doberman) and eight horses I started caring for animals at a young age. Oral medication or injections are ok, diabetic dogs okay too. I've personally rescued two dogs in Detroit and still have one, Harper, a Staffordshire mix. I love all breeds and do not discriminate. Have a hyper dog? I'll run your buddy all over town along side my bike. Your best friend will get all the same love and care that you give them. Overnight stays will be full of fun and lots of walks. Daytime visits will always be nice long walks with visits to local parks and shopping areas for maximum socialization and puppy excitement.
“This was our first time using Meagan for our 2 cats. She did a great job communicating with us and even with requests to help with packages/mail while we were away. She also was super awesome and took the cat trash out for us before we came home! We finally found someone in our area to help out when we are out of town! Thank you!”
“Very reliable and professional. We will definitely ask for Nicoletta’s help again! My dogs loved her the second she walked in the door. They’re a little wild but she was great with them.”
“Chris was super flexible- responded quickly and for a short notice sit at that! Furthermore, he was kind, personable, and professional upon meeting. He did amazing with our crazy, very big, very excitable dog. You can tell he stayed to spend time playing and giving our pup attention. Timely and communicative as well! We will be using him as our first line sitter from now on whenever possible!”
“Audrey is so sweet- she took such great care of our catboy while we were away camping for Labor Day. She was communicative and more than helpful. Even took out the garbage. Just such a kind and wonderful kitty sitter. Definitely consider her for your pet sitting needs!”

“Nicole loved Zeke and Dottie! She was super helpful and patient with Zeke when he was being a bit picky about his food. She was willing to spend a bit of extra time if my two fur babies were a bit slow at taking their potty breaks. Lastly, she did great at getting Zeke to take his daily medication. Definitely recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a pet sitter that they can trust.”
About: My name is Sam Singer. I have a flexible schedule and a love for walking and hiking with pups or relaxing with your cat!! I have a gentle demeanor and a big heart, doesn’t hurt that I like to snuggle to. My niece-pup, Nika, taught me lots about how to hang with dogs, Nika was abused and neglected. Through training and love I helped her to become a happy and healthy dog. I grew up with a big fluffy dog named Buffy, who needed lots of brushing. If that’s something your dog needs I can handle some fur. I have a cat of my own, Pickle, she’s a feral rescue with a big mouth. She’s taught me plenty too about patience and how to give a cat massage. Let’s talk about what’s best for you, your pet, and me! So, can I meet your pet(s)? Pet care is a daily routine for me and I hope you’ll invite me to be included in your routine at home with your animals. I like to go over fully a day in the life of your pet and try to stick to their routine as best as possible. I like to keep your pet active and distracted, so play outside or in and lots of cuddles.
About: I have lots of experience with cats and dogs, big or small. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, rats, rabbits, reptiles, and fish! I have experience giving injections and oral meds and I’m super comfortable with doing so. Also, I have experience watching pets post-op, as well as puppies and dogs with anxiety. I have a full time job Monday-Friday, but would love to care for your pet on weekends and evenings. I’m available most weekday evenings for walks or drop ins, and I’m available anytime on weekends for walks or drop ins. I’d love to be a great companion to your pet while you trust me with their care. I love playing with high energy dogs to get their energy out, but I also respect pets who need chill/alone time.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grosse Pointe Farms
Could not ask for a better friend for my bunny! Super kind and trustworthy. I sincerely appreciate the adaptation and willingness to care for an “exotic” pet (like Mochi’s not just a little puppy cat). Everything was perfect and I came home to a very happy bun. Thanks a bun-ch! 🐇
Lauri is great with our cats and we are so happy to have her as our sitter. I always feel at ease leaving our cats in her care, as she is reliable, communicative and thorough. Both of our cats are comfortable with her as well - including one who is aging and has an ever growing list of medications and quirks that Lauri is patient and wonderful about. Highly recommended!
Joshua was excellent with the kitties and took great care of my home! He left wonderful updates and pictures every visit, and made sure the shy ones were accounted for and safe. I could tell he really cares about the cats and I’m so appreciative for his care!
Heather was able to respond to a last-minute request and took fantastic care of our two cats! She was reliable and provided detailed updates and photos and even brought her own toys to keep them entertained while we were gone! We will definitely ask Heather to return again
Jenna provided exceptional service taking care of my cats while I was out of town. I really appreciated the pictures from each of her visits and was impressed with the overall cleanliness - one of my cats is a messy eater! - when I returned. I am so grateful to have met Jenna and would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.
Kelsey was absolutely incredible in caring for my dog while I was out of the country for two weeks. Never did I feel overly concerned about the care being provided, and she stayed in great communication, updating me on things that came up. My dog can be an absolute spaz if there’s a lack of interaction/activity while I’m traveling, and after being left in Kelsey’s care, I arrived home to find him curled up on the couch relaxing, unphased I was even home. I would definitely recommend Kelsey if you’re seeking somebody knowledgable and trustworthy to look after your beloved pet/home!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Grosse Pointe Farms is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $31 per visit. 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.
As of October 2026, there are 3,118 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Grosse Pointe Farms. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
