“Evelyn is amazing with our pups and I cannot say enough good things, we will use her for all of our dog care needs in the future. Our puppies did very well with her!”
“Meghan was very communicative on when she would drop in and how Luna was doing. She sent lots of pics which was good to see Luna doing well! I highly recommend Meghan and would book again if she’s free! Your pet will be in safe hands with Meghan.”
About: I’ve worked and volunteered in animal shelters walking dogs and socializing both dogs and cats! I know dog and cat behavior like the back of my hand! I worked with Chicago Pet Club walking dogs previously. This is what I love doing! My priority is your beloved furry friends! I am very flexible in availability, if you need me, I’ll be there! My cat zoey is the queen and my world! I treat every animal with the utmost respect and patience. Anticipating their needs and adapting to whatever is thrown at me!
“Paris is wonderful with our girls. They really interact with her, which is not something they usually do with people that they don't know well. She puts my mind at ease when I am away from my baby girls! This is our second time using her, and we will again!”
“Mary took great care of Gino and Gus - I loved the little updates and it’s obvious that Gino has a new girlfriend. I never once worried about either of our cats - Gus is very shy about new people and while he didn’t make an appearance, it was never concerning given how happy Gino looked. Thank you so much, Mary!”
“Genevieve was responsive, easy to work with and provided great updates when she watched our cat. She was very attentive, and I had the peace of mind knowing my cat was well cared for when we were away. I would definitely recommend Genevieve and look forward to booking her again in the future!”
“This was my first time using a pet sitter and I will definitely be calling Cheryl the next time I need someone to watch my cats. We hit it off and, maybe more importantly, one of my cats took to her right away, the other was less trusting but her behavior improved by the end of Cheryl’s visits.”
About: I’m gentle, caring, and dependable. I love animals, follow instructions carefully, and am eager to gain hands-on pet care experience while earning money during summer break from college. I’m currently a student in college and am on my summer break until late August! This leaves me with plenty of time to look after pups and pick up shifts, so I have a very flexible schedule. I currently don’t own any pets but am open to welcoming them for brief stays if needed! I am also very good at following directions, so I would be happy to care for pets as needed in their own space.
“Jillian consistently went above and beyond caring for my dog while I was out of town. She always left detailed reviews with so many pictures and even looked in on my cats that are pretty self sufficient, though it wasn’t in the original plan. Wish I could give her 10 stars 😁”
“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!”
“Hannah took great care of our kitties and bearded dragon! She was on time, and made sure she laid eyes on everyone. She sent pics and was very good at communicating with me from first contact. Highly recommend and will certainly re-book. Thanks for the peace of mind while we were gone, Hannah!”
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: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 25 years. I am a professional K9 trainer and handler with experience working with family pets, high-drive working dogs, puppies, large breeds, senior dogs, and dogs with behavioral challenges. I own and operate Paws & Effect K9 Services and have worked with obedience, behavior modification, crate training, leash manners, socialization, and detection dogs. Your dog's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. Whether your dog needs a simple walk, overnight care, or extra structure and training, I provide reliable, professional care and treat every dog like one of my own. Pet care is a part of my daily routine. As a professional dog trainer and lifelong animal owner, I spend every day caring for, exercising, training, and monitoring dogs. This allows me to provide reliable care, frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I maintain a flexible schedule and can accommodate the individual needs of your pet whenever possible. Your pet's safety and well-being are my top priorities. I have extensive experience handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, and high-energy working breeds. Pets in my care receive constant supervision, structured routines, clean accommodations, and plenty of exercise and enrichment. I can follow medication schedules, feeding instructions, crate routines, and any special care requirements to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you're away.
About: I have been taking care of animals since the minute I discovered them at a young age. I have cat/dog sat for neighbors, friends, family and strangers. I had my family dog from a puppy until she was the age of 18 so I have a lot of senior dog experience. I also dog sat for a family for 8 years consecutively (also nannied their children). I took care of their senior diabetic dog and then later their new black lab puppy...I still watch him when they go on long trips. I have also dog sat for overnight/weeks/weekends for two separate families over the past few years. Puppies to adult dogs- dog walks, feeding, park trips etc. I have also lived with/taken care of roommates two kitty's before I moved out on my own. I now have my own cats Wren and Winnie who are the loves of my life. I currently have a very open schedule, so whenever you need me we can make it work. I just ask you work with me and I’ll work with you! I am open to coming to your place whenever needed, I do have a fenced in yard and live in a lovely neighborhood. I do have my two cats so I would prefer not to bring any other animal in to my home.
“Danielle is amazing. She takes such great care of our dogs. She spends individual time with them. It makes us feel better while we are at work to have the dogs in her care.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ben was timely, communicative and respectful. My 2 dogs can be a little raucous with short visits and he seemed to handle it with ease. Great price too! I will use him any and every time I can. A+”
“Jenny is fantastic! I was gone for 2 weeks, and I felt like the cats were in great hands. Communication is easy and excellent with her, and she spends the full 30min with them which I really appreciated since I had been away for so long. There was one time one of my cats was hiding out, and she stayed longer to make sure they were ok. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had my own dog for 8 years now along with growing up with my family dog for 15 years. I have watched many of my friends and family’s dogs throughout the years. I am currently unemployed so I am available most days from morning to evening to walk, check in on and play with your beloved pets! I have a fenced in yard and plenty of toys to entertain your fur baby. I am able to crate your dog if needed as well!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Grosse Pointe Shores
Mary took fantastic care of our cats. She’s so patient with our shy Gus, who has finally decided that Mary is a-ok. Gino, of course, is her biggest fan. We have zero concerns leaving them both in Mary’s care - she provides great updates and pictures and both boys are well loved while we are gone. We can’t ask for more! Mary also went above and beyond taking in very large packages that came while we were away - it is much appreciated. We already have Mary booked for our next trip!
Amber does a great job checking in on and caring for our two kitties when we are away. She always shares the best pics and a lot of detail about the kitties and updates on their food, water and litter status. She has helped us out in the past and I am always happy to rebook when she has availability when we need!
Have had the pleasure of Heather watching our cats for multiple trips at multiple lengths. She’s incredibly thorough and thoughtful, deeply caring of the animals wellbeing and heath and trustworthy. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you, Heather!
So happy Jillian was available to do stop ins for our 3 cats. She showed them so much love and care, took care of everything we asked and made sure to send us daily notes and photos. Really appreciate the care which went above and beyond and will absolutely book again down the road.
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.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Grosse Pointe Shores on Rover is $16.65 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 1,524 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Grosse Pointe Shores. 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 Grosse Pointe Shores. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
