“Very informative about your pet!! Really loved and kept my dog with anxiety as calm as she could while I was gone. Very reliable !! Thank you so much Evelyn❤️”

“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 😁”

“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.”

“We’ve solely utilized Megan for the past four years and we couldn’t be more grateful! As always, we appreciate her taking care of our dog while we take care of ourselves outside of our home. Thank you!”


About: I am a dog lover who currently owns 3 dogs, a terrier mix, a standard poodle, and a Doberman. My husband and I love animals and have grown up around different types of pets, which is why dog sitting is a perfect fit for me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I acquired my love for animals from my father. Since before I was born, he has always owned a dog. The first dog I remember having was a Husky named Brandon. We named him Brandon because of the dog on "Punky Brewster" and I must have been only around 4 years old! My experience administering medication I have experience administering medication to my own pets and others pets as well. I’m a stay at home mom, which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s). We love playing outdoors and our dogs are like family to us! I have a dog run (working on fencing our large yard) and three dogs of my own. We have room to crate train if needed, and keep kids and dogs separate should your pup not be kid friendly.
“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.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life, I was raised with both cats and dogs around! Whenever a family member or friend needs help with a pet I am who they call. I have a lot of compassion and love for all animals, I feel that are family members and should be cared for as such! I currently have 3 cats, all sisters and our beloved dog of 13 years made her transition in 2020. I am comfortable with all breeds of cats & dogs as well as all ages! If any doubts, Meet & Greets with your fur babies are absolutely fine with me so that we are all comfortable! I currently am available Monday-Friday & Sunday. I do drop off and pick up my children from school so I am available from 8:30-2:30AM & 5:00-7:00PM. I can do a walk later in the evening if requested in advance! I do have a nice size fenced in back yard. I do not currently want to bring other animals into my home just because I don’t want conflict with my 3 cats. In warmer weather I don’t mind a dog being in the backyard. I can adapt to anyone’s living situation when it comes to how they like to keep their pet. I will make sure to follow directions very closely.

About: As a dog owner myself, I know just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members! 🐾💕 I have experience pet sitting for a family with both a senior dog and a 7-year-old dog, which has taught me the importance of adapting to each dog’s individual needs, personality, and energy level. Whether it’s taking things slow with an older pup or keeping a more energetic dog entertained, I’m happy to give them the love and attention they deserve! I’m also a proud husky owner and have personally trained my own dog, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement (especially with those stubborn husky personalities!). My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and affection I give my own! 💗 I currently work part-time, which allows me to dedicate my afternoons and evenings to caring for your furry friends! 🐾💕 I’m generally available after 2:30 PM for walks, drop-in visits, potty breaks, and some extra playtime or cuddles!

I’m happy to communicate and coordinate schedules to find what works best for you and your pet! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! 🐾💕 I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I do my best to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their familiar environment and follow any instructions you provide, whether that’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, or their favorite activities! During walks, I always prioritize safety by keeping dogs securely leashed, staying aware of our surroundings, and making sure they’re comfortable throughout our time together. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust goes into leaving your furry family member in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same love, care, and respect I’d want for my own. I’m also happy to provide updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 💗

“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!”

“I hired Danielle to do a daily drop in for my cat when we went out of town for a week. She did a great job, communicated daily, and my cat was healthy and happy when I returned home. I would definitely hire her again when I need to go out of town. Thank you!”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and love them like family. I’ve cared for family friends' dogs for years; I love all breeds and have experience with quite a few. I love spending time with dogs, and I’m happy to help, whether that’s checking in on them or taking them for a walk. I am in between jobs during my gap year while I prepare for medical school so my schedule is open and I am available to help out as much as needed. I care for my own pets daily by spending quality time with them, feeding them, walking them, getting them outside and playing in the yard. I would do the same for your pets and any other special care they need.
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: I have over 40 years of experience caring for all animals and understand how special they are as family members. I provide loving, patient, and attentive care, making sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m happy to respect each animals unique personality, routine, and individual needs. I'm currently retired and have lots of time on hand to devote to new animals. I live in a safe and friendly environment which allows animals to feel safe and secure. I have a fenced in backyard for them to roam and play freely or a home that's pet friendly. I have time to devote to all pets needs.
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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grosse Pointe Shores
Amber was absolutely fantastic! We left for roughly 2 weeks and she was so attentive to our cat Willie. She provides you with lots of information in her updates coupled with tons of pictures. It made us smile and giggle every time we read/saw them :). We will definitely book with Amber next time we vacation! She’s the best!

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!

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Grosse Pointe Shores is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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 November 2026, there are 3,091 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Grosse Pointe Shores. 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 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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 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.
