“Evelyn was amazing with Smokey! Evelyn took such good care of her. She sent pictures that reassured all Smokey’s needs were met and Smokey was engaged in play everyday. I recommend her highly!!”
“Jillian was amazing! She went over and above what we even asked and was super reliable. She stayed in contact throughout, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our trip. She did a great job keeping everything neat and clean and taking care of all our animals, inside and out. I won’t hesitate to ask her to pet sit in the future!”
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.
About: I’m an oncology nurse and work Monday through Friday only. So I’ll be available to snuggle with your furry child on the weekends. I’ll be available to come to your home to feed your lil’ furchild (because we all know that they’re starving at all times), play with them (and allow them to win at tag of course) and keep their “toilet” spic and span:
About: I worked at a pet resort for 4 years where I gained experience with basic grooming & medication administration, including insulin injections. During my time there, I floated around from front desk, grooming, group play, and kennel attendant. We mostly took care of cats and dogs; however, we also had a few bunnies, guinea pigs, a bird, and even a fish stay with us! I enjoy taking care of and loving any and all kinds of animals! I am comfortable taking care of all ages, sizes, and breeds. In my personal life, I currently have a 4 year old husky mix, a 11 month old german shepherd mix, and a 6 year old tuxedo cat. In my spare time I enjoy teaching the dogs new tricks or cuddling with the cat. I am not currently working, so I have plenty of time to play with your loved pet! I would love to spoil your pet as much as possible! I will treat each and every pet like they are my own. They deserve every ounce of love they can get! I will respect the pets boundaries and follow any instructions needed while making sure everyone stays happy and healthy!
“Monica was outstanding, I don't think my cats wanted us to come home! Monica took care of their basic needs and went well beyond and made sure they got lots of pets, they played with toy mice and they were brushed. They daily photos were such a nice way for us to check in on them. Even my shy cat bonded with her. I would use Monica again and again. Can't say enough nice things about her.”
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.
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, I’ve always had a deep connection with pets. I’ve owned five dogs, ranging from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I have also had three kitties as well! My experience with different life stages of both cats and dogs means I understand their unique needs and how to provide the love and care they deserve. I have also worked in a doggie daycare/boarding facility in the past that cared for dogs, cats, and exotics! This means I have even more confidence and experience with all animals! Despite my busy schedule with work and school, pet care remains a priority. While my parents handle most of the care for our dogs, I step in to watch them when they’re away, ensuring their safety by closing off areas of the house if I need to leave. I also manage feeding and letting them outside when everyone else is at work. Additionally, I own three crested geckos, to which I am dedicated, feeding them and misting their tanks with water twice a day. I also own two cats and clean their litter boxes and feed them once a day. This routine fits well with my other responsibilities, allowing me to provide consistent care for all our pets. I am committed to following the specific instructions provided by dog owners for their pets' care. Whether it involves feeding schedules, or any special needs, I will adhere to these guidelines to ensure their comfort and well-being. If crating is required for their safety or comfort, I will implement it as directed, ensuring a secure and positive environment for the dog while following the owner's preferences.
“Katherine took great care of my two cats for the weekend. She did drop-in visits to feed them and clean the litter box. She sent pictures of them each visit. And had great communication about when she would arrive and leave so that I could arm/disarm the alarm system. Will use again!”
“Brandi was amazing! Absolutely will schedule again. Treated our house and kitties like her own and sent pics and videos every day. My big tabby loved her and even my skittish shelter cats were totally relaxed after a day or two. Brandi really knows how to interact with cats. What a great experience overall!”
About: Since I was in my teens I have lived a life with pets - both dogs and cats, and it has been such a rewarding journey so far! I have had two rescue dogs, a collie mix and a beagle, and they had my whole heart. I currently have a multi-cat household, and do TNR in my neighborhood where I can to help the outdoor stray cats. I have also rehomed multiple cats with the help of local rescue groups to ensure a long happy kitty life. Currently, I spend a great deal of time with my best buddy Rocco, an 8 year old black lab. I have experience with small dogs, medium sized dogs and large dogs and honestly enjoy them all the same! I also have experience with cats of all ages, from bottle feeding kittens to 18 year old seniors, and am comfortable giving any medications to dogs or cats as well. I know my way around all kinds of personalities and ages, whether it be those that want to play or those that need a slow, gentle walk and some extra attention. I have also been working with the same vet for 20+ years that can attest to my care and love for animals. I will treat every pet like my own - patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Being around animals - that's my happy place. My hours at work have changed which allows me to be available Monday-Friday 11am-3pm. I'm available for walks, drops ins for potty breaks while you're at work, or to check on your kitties if you'll be gone longer than you'd like to be. Lots of time for playing with your furry family members! I would be happy to come to your home and treat it and your pets with respect and care. My personal cats are all fixed and up to date on shots, however I took in a stray girl last winter who is very scared of everything. I think it's best to let her rule the house and come to visit yours at your homes where they are most comfortable.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over a decade now. Dogs and cats of family and friends. I have three years of experience in two different dog obedience training facilities. I understand some dogs need time to adjust and they need to have the space to come to you. I am a dog trainer and I work 5days a week. Most Tuesdays and Wednesdays I do work until 8pm but starting at 10:30am or 12pm. Thursdays are my long days 8:30am-6pm and Fridays I work 11am-7pm. I am comfortable if a dog needs to be crated at home. I understand some dogs need their walks within their day and am comfortable if a stool is a bit messy.
“Hanan is soooo amazing! She took lots of photos for each visit, gave me detailed updates, and is just generally a really kind person! She was so kind to coordinate handing off my keys and dropping them back off to me at my place. I realllllly appreciated that after a long business trip! Will definitely be booking again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs & cats for as long as I can remember! I love taking them on walks, playing with them, & giving them plenty of pets, cuddles & snuggles. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful little puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. My friends & family have lots of dogs, so I’m comfortable and familiar with interacting with various breeds of all sizes & ages. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, & I enjoy getting to know them & making sure they feel safe, comfortable, & loved. I’ll also send plenty of updates & pictures of your fur baby throughout their stay to give you peace of mind while you’re away! I’m super flexible, so whatever you need, don’t hesitate to ask. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! :) I have complete open availability! I work occasionally on a per diem basis, which means I have a flexible schedule & can accommodate a variety of times throughout the day. Whether you need early mornings, afternoons, evening care, or overnight stays, I’m happy to work with your schedule & your pet’s needs. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible, so don’t hesitate to reach out if something comes up unexpectedly! I can be home throughout the day to keep a close eye on your fur baby, give them plenty of attention, & make sure they feel safe, comfortable, & loved. I’m super flexible, so I’ll do my best to accommodate you and your pet! Your pet’s safety, comfort, & happiness are my top priorities! My apartment complex has a little gated park & a mini dog park where your pup can enjoy some fresh air, exercise, & playtime. I also live right off the Detroit River, so I can take your furry friend on a nice, relaxing stroll along the boardwalk & enjoy the beautiful scenery! My apartment is over 1,000 square feet, so there’s plenty of room for your pets to play, explore, & feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a 10-foot cat tree for any kitties who decide to stay, giving them plenty of space to climb, perch, & enjoy themselves! I always make sure to keep pets safe, supervised, & comfortable while following their individual routines & needs. Whether we're going for walks, playing outside, or relaxing at home, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of love, attention, & care. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you have to make sure your pet feels right at home. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in a safe, loving environment while you’re away!
About: I have had medium & large sized dog breeds my whole life, with a now 6 year old Australian Shepherd who requires all the energy! When he is distracted, I can then cater to my 5 amazing cats. I have experience with raising puppies & kittens, and will be available at any time of the day for your pet! I also have experience with small reptiles & snakes if additional care is needed while on trips. I am currently doing pet care full time! I plan on going back to college in Fall ‘27 for Film, and am looking to keep preoccupied until then. I love animals & would love to have some more fun in my schedule! I have experience as an EMT and handle high stress situations very well. I am aware of where all emergency vets are in the Clinton-Macomb area, and have no issue with crating when necessary. My goal is to return your pets to you safely and tired out!
About: I’ve taken care of the dogs in the family for years, and still do with two pups of my own. I also work at a veterinary hospital as a vet tech I can tend to emergency situations, post- op care, giving medication’s cleaning bowls regularly, noticing any issues and giving them lots of kisses! I’m comfortable with senior dogs and puppies, and used to foster! I’m also CPR certified! I work 12 hour shifts every other day, so I’m open to weekend stays, days after work and the entire next day, some holidays, vacations. On days I don’t work I can stop by often to play, go for a walk, hang inside/outside or go for a car ride! Depending on your home, I’m comfortable crating if necessary, separating multiple dogs for meals, keeping them calm after eating, not leaving them unattended with toys then can rip apart or anything they can get into, including anything I might have, (shoes, purse, keys). If we go for a walk I will ensure all equipment fits properly so we don’t have any issues.
About: I grew up with a dog and cat of my own, and was frequently left to watch the house and pets during family outings. Since moving out I've continued to frequently watch after my family's cats when they are out travelling. I have weekly appointments that take 1-2 hour 3 times a week. Other than that, I'm very flexible and can work around most things! I'm available for holidays! I like to try and learn about the animals individually! Learning one's personality is key to providing good care and a comfortable environment. Keeping up with the instructions left and letting the animal know I am a friend to them is the most important!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Grosse Pointe Shores
5 stars every time. Heather is meticulous about understanding our multi pet households needs and preferences to ensure the best possible care. She has come to be an integral part of any travel plans. She is communicative and consistent with updates and pictures to ensure peace of mind back home. She is trustworthy, dependable and an animal lover who genuinely cares for our family. Thank you so much, Heather!
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!
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.

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 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.

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 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.
