“Happy repeat customer here. Alicyn looked after our two cats and our house with the utmost care and attention. Because one of out cats requires frequent medication it’s hard for us to take vacations. Being able to count on Alicyn’s reliable help allows us to travel with peace of mind.”
“Alex is an absolute gem. We needed a sitter last minute and not only did they come in clutch, they provided a world class experience for our cat. They were transparent, gave daily updates and sent all the photos. Our cat was so loved and taken care of while we were gone. 10/10 book Alex for your pet needs.”
“Nicole stayed at our house with our cats for a week and did a great job following the instructions. My cats have quite the extension routine and needs and she took all the request in with no judgement. One of my cats requires oral medication every day and she took care of that as well. I was able to feel comfortable knowing that my cats were in great hands. She sent me little updates every day as well, communication was solid. When we got home, she left the house extremely clean for us, which was a nice bonus. Highly recommend!”
“Shannon was great with my cats! Her updates were thorough and my cats were in great spirits when I got home, so I know she took excellent care of them! Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs. As well as rescued cats and dogs from the streets. I’ve had many animals, from goldfish, to parakeets, to cats! I’m currently taking summer classes, but I can make time for pet walking or sitting! It brings me joy so it’s always a fun time. I used to pet sit for my friend whilst she was away on vacation. I would visit in mornings and evenings to feed, entertain, and walk her dog around the neighborhood!
About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pug and helping care for multiple cats over the years. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether it's playtime, walks, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I focus on giving pets the same level of care and attention they receive at home. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in caring and reliable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals and make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal schedule and providing them with attention, comfort, and consistency while their owners are away. Whether it's checking in on a cat, taking a dog for a walk, or providing overnight care, I'm committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. 🐾 I treat every pet like family and follow their routine as closely as possible. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or cuddles, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.
“Great cat sitter! Tara left detailed notes each time and went above and beyond to buy more supplies when needed. She was also very polite respectful of boundaries for both my home and my cats.”
“Caitie was simply amazing with my 2 year old tortie cat Temperance. She needs a lot of play and hang time, Caitie was so attentive and sweet with her. Caitie’s communication was impeccable and the pictures I received were so cute. Thank you!!!”
About: Hi! My name is Amalie & I won’t charge an arm and a leg for additional pets :) I’m the daughter of a parent who owned a pet sitting business since I was 4. Due to this, I spent my formative years around all types of animals including dogs, cats, bunnies, snakes, rats, hamsters, chickens and plenty more! Starting in high school my mom‘s clients began asking if I could care for their animals when my mom wasn’t available, especially for overnights and I absolutely loved it. Additionally, I have experience fostering animals through the rescue we got our fur babes from. This, along with having pets growing up, has provided me with a wealth of experience. I have experience with reactive dogs, training techniques, med administration and more. I continued petsitting in college to earn some extra money, and I can’t let it go because I just love pets too much. It also prevents me from adopting too many pets than I can manage, I already have 3 🫣. Sorry for all the bird parents out there, I won’t care for birds as I am afraid of them. 🙃 I work from home the majority of the time so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets the care and attention they need! I work from home 90% of the time so my schedule is very flexible! I may run home once a day to give my dogs a walk while my husband is at work. I am happy to to stay in your home to keep your pets company and give them lots of attention! All I need is the Wi-Fi password to allow me to work. :)
About: I have 15+ years experience caring for dogs of all sizes with various behavioral or medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medication as well as providing basic care such as walking and feeding. I have my own high anxiety Pit Mix who I adopted and have used multiple sitters on Rover, so I understand how hard it can be to leave your fur baby with a stranger. I am happy to send photos and updates galore for your peace of mind! I work a hybrid job and have ample time outside of work that I could dedicate to whatever your dog needs ranging from a run to playing fetch to spending some time being petted. I firmly believe that pets are family members and should be treated with the utmost care and loved unconditionally. I’m open to any behavioral challenges but ask for transparency prior to booking for both my safety and to provide the best care to your dog. I often work from home so I’m free for morning and evening walks, playtime, feedings, and/or bathroom breaks. I can often make time mid-day as well. I know all dogs have unique needs and routines so I’m happy to do whatever your pup is used to is ensure maximum happiness while you’re away. I have a high anxiety pitbull so I understand some dogs are slower to warm up to a stranger. It doesn’t bother me, I just ask that you’re honest about any behavioral quirks so I can ensure your dog is safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve taken very good care of my cat for the last few years. I love the little guy, it has inspired me to want to take care of other cats. I work full time, so I can only make appointments for the evenings. I work a 9-5 Monday thru Friday. I am available on weekends too. For my home my cat has everything he needs, including lots of toys, scratching posts, scratching pads, cardboard boxes, and lots of really good catnip.
“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!”
About: I’ve always grown up with multiple dogs at a time. My parents currently love a 5 year old German shepherd, an 8 year old English shepherd, and an 8 year old Staffordshire terrier. I myself now love a 2 year old Irish setter doodle that I have well trained with my boyfriend, and a 3 year old orange tabby kitten! I work in the medical sales industry, so no two days are the same. I usually don’t have a full day however, so if I’m scheduled with your pet, they have my full attention! I currently love a 2 year old male Irish doodle puppy and a 3 year old female orange tabby kitten. They are very friendly with each other and everyone who visits. We think it's important to have rules and structure so they are both trained and well behaved but thoroughly loved and cared for. l am comfortable with putting dogs in crates, letting them out, feeding, and administering medication if necessary; really whatever attending to their normal schedule.
About: I worked at an animal shelter for about a year and a half, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I became familiar with dogs’ and cats’ diets, learned how to understand their body language, and gained experience administering medications when needed. I’ve also owned dogs for most of my life and have always believed them to be incredibly loyal and loving companions. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary assistant program. Most of my classes are online, with the exception of Fridays, when I attend classes on campus. I am generally available Monday through Thursday for most of the day, as long as I am given advance notice. I am also available on weekends when needed, with advance notice. My pets at home are very spoiled, so I plan to treat your pets the same way! I always want to make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while they’re with me. I also enjoy going on trail walks or taking long walks in general, so I’d be happy to have some furry company along the way.
“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!”

Alex is an absolute gem. We needed a sitter last minute and not only did they come in clutch, they provided a world class experience for our cat. They were transparent, gave daily updates and sent all the photos. Our cat was so loved and taken care of while we were gone. 10/10 book Alex for your pet needs.
Sylvie was great taking care of our 4 cats and fish while we were away for over a week. I left a long and detailed instruction list and she had no problem following it to a T. Although our cats are typically shy, one of our boys took a liking to her as shown in the pictures at each visit. I highly recommend Sylvie to care for your pets!
Azariah was very communicative and it’s very obvious that she cares for animals. She followed all instructions to care for my two kitties. I got plenty of pictures and sweet little messages about how they interacted with her and it was nice that even my shyest cat came out when she would come over. I’ll absolutely book with Azariah again.
Preti was great with our cat Nebula. She came by our place before hand and asked questions while getting to know our girl a little bit. She filled out Rover Cards with detail and let me know if something unexpected happened. Overall she was a great sitter. Will be looking to book again.
Areatha went above and beyond for our two cats. One of them had an unexpected eye infection right before we were planning to go on our trip. Areatha was incredibly flexible in making sure our kitty got her meds. She was always on top of communication and sent us photos and videos. I will definitely be booking with her again the next time we go out of town!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Hamtramck is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $35 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.

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.

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.
