“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!”
“Our extremely shy cat hides from everyone, but actually sits at the door waiting for Evelyn to come over. We’ve had people volunteer to cat-sit for free, but we’d much rather pay Evelyn all the money to be our cats’ best friends when mom and dad are out of town!”
“Meghan is amazing! I am so happy we found her! She is super responsive and communicative, and really put us at ease about leaving our senior dog in her care. Upon our initial meet-and-greet we got a good vibe from her and totally trusted her to come into our home while we were gone. She was right on time for our drop-in and clearly gave our (somewhat anxious) dog lots of love and attention during her visit because he was happy as a clam when we got home. We will definitely be using Meghan again, and highly recommend her to others!”
“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: Hi, I’m Megan — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet care provider based in beautiful East English Village. I live with my two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other calm, respectful pups. I provide a personalized, low-volume boarding experience from my home, where your dog becomes part of our little pack. My services are designed with your pet’s comfort and safety in mind. I only board one guest dog at a time, ensuring constant supervision, individual attention, and a peaceful, low-stress environment. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, a walk while you’re at work, or overnight care, I treat every animal like one of my own — with affection, patience, and professional care. I provide updates with every visit, and I’m happy to accommodate custom routines, feeding schedules, and medication administration when needed. Let’s schedule a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great match! Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life — I structure my routine around it. With two dogs of my own, I’m already up early for walks, feeding, and snuggles. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit my boarding and walking services to just a few clients at a time, I’m able to give each pet my full focus without being overbooked or rushed. Whether I’m doing a drop-in visit, hosting a pup overnight, or stopping by for a midday walk, I plan my calendar so your pet gets reliable, unrushed, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities — whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in yours. BOARDING AT MY HOME: When boarding in my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment by only accepting one guest dog at a time. This allows me to give each pet plenty of individual attention and supervision throughout the day. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to having guests and do best with other well-mannered pups. I take time to carefully introduce everyone, and I require a meet-and-greet prior to first-time bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. My home is pet-safe, clean, and set up with cozy resting areas, a large and securely fenced outdoor space, and plenty of enrichment opportunities like walks, playtime, and snuggles. I also follow the pet’s routine as closely as possible to make their stay feel familiar and reassuring. FOR DROP INS I aim to maintain your pet’s routine in their own environment, minimizing disruption and providing consistent care. I refresh water, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, and always leave your home secure and tidy. I also provide visit updates with photos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Building trust through consistent, compassionate care is what I do best. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them, they’ll be treated like family.
“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!”
“Hannah was absolutely amazing!! She came for us last minute and will now be out to go for pet care!! She gave wonderful updates and loved and cared for our animals so thoroughly!! She really is incredible and I recommend her 💯”
“Mary was wonderful! She sent me regular updates while I was away for two weeks and coordinated with my sister when my sister needed access to my house. I recommend Mary 100%.”
“Danielle was super helpful for walking our dog mid afternoon!! She was understanding of our needs and had a great personality! Will definitely be using her again! Thanks Danielle!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Jillian did a great job of providing pictures and updates of my cats. The cats were happy, and their litter area was kept clean! I've already booked her again.”
“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+”
“Emily is great! She always ensures my sweet puppy is taken care of. I never have to worry when he is with her. I'm thankful we found someone so kind to take care of our puppy. I highly recommend her if you need someone to take care of your dog!”
About: My family has always had a dog since I was born. I have helped take care of relatives and family friends' dogs of all sizes/breeds since I was a child. I love giving dogs the attention they want--whether that be long walks, playing with toys, or just cuddling on the couch. My goal is to make your dog as comfortable as possible while you're away! I work full-time, but often work from home a few days of the week. My boyfriend is in law school and will be studying for the bar exam this summer. Between both of us, we are able to provide a mostly flexible schedule so that we can give your dog the optimal amount of time and care. We live in a townhouse with an un-fenced yard, but are able to provide as many potty breaks as needed. The neighborhood is perfect for giving as many walks as needed. If house-sitting, we are available to stay over with your dog and provide as much of their normal routine as possible.
About: I provide dog walking and drop in visits. I have 10+ years dog sitting experience and have 5 years veterinary experience. I have experience caring for various breeds and sizes and have cared for other dogs in my own home as well as the owner's home. I have a great love for animals and I love dogs of all breeds, size, and age. I have a dog of my own, that is a Beagle/Coonhound mix. I am able to go on walks, play, etc. I will ensure your dog is well loved and cared for. I am reliable and organized and will care for your dog as if it were my own. I have a strong connection with animals and truly enjoy being around dogs. I’m currently working part time and I’m a stay at home mom. I have my own dog that I care for and ensure is walked daily so I will easily prioritize caring for your pet too. Dog walking and caring for dogs truly is part of my daily life. I will ensure that your pet is well taken care of and will be respectful of your home. I will ensure your dog is comfortable and if any issues or questions arise, will contact you right away.
About: Hi!! Ask anyone, I am absolutely obsessed with any dog I see. I have had dogs all 23 years of my life: a husky, a mutt, a golden doodle, and a couple of miniature poodles. I would love to take care of any dog you have: big or small, old or young. I can guarantee that they will have the best experience outside of your own home. I hope you look no further and choose me as your dog’s wonderful caretaker or walker! :) I can work from home or take breaks during the weekdays for walks/potty breaks. I am available full time on weekends. I have a dog of my own as well - a husky named Kylo! I have a fenced in backyard and a dog friendly home. I have a very sweet siberian husky who would be more than happy to have a friend some days!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grosse Pointe Woods
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!
Joshua was fantastic!! I will definitely book his services again. He was super gentle & caring with our very shy cat, and took the time to meet her before the booking. This was our first time using Rover and it was a huge relief to have someone as reliable & thoughtful as Joshua. Thank you so much!!!
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.
Hannah does an awesome job visiting my high maintenance Doberman puppy. I always book last minute. She is very reliable, ethical, and has been a lifesaver for our family a number of times. I have full trust in her taking care of my dog and highly recommend her!
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.
It was our first time having Megan watch our cat and we were very happy with the experience! She was very personable and great to work with. Her check in reports were very detailed and left us at ease knowing our cat was in good hands while we were out of town. We would not hesitate to have Megan cat sit for us again!

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 Woods 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Grosse Pointe Woods. 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
