“Richard was a fantastic dog sitter for our boy, Buddy! He was very communicative, reliable, and punctual throughout our trip. Buddy was happy, relaxed, and content when we got home, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend Richard to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Richard, for taking such great care of Buddy! 🐾😊”
“Genevieve was absolutely fantastic! I am always worried about leaving Pepper because she doesn’t like new people initially but she seemed to warm up to Genevieve very well. Genevieve was patient, friendly, and accommodating to any needs I had. She sent the cutest pictures and “pupdates” often to keep me in the loop. Since it was Christmas, she also opened gifts with Pepper on that day and sent fun videos. She took great care of our house as well. Cleaned up after herself and went over and beyond doing laundry as well. I would definitely recommend Genevieve to anyone who is looking for a reliable sitter for their fur babies. We will be using her again soon! Thanks for everything!”
“Annamaria was great! My Dog was happy as can be and I know he received a lot of attention as she provided photos of him walking, eating, playing, etc., etc. I would absolutely book Annamaria again and I am sure we will in the future! Thank you for making my dog’s experience better than expected! We were happy to know he was in good hands.”
About: With over 10 years of professional dog walking experience, I’ve had the privilege of building deep bonds with both dogs and their owners. The moment I arrive, tails wag, and owners smile, knowing their pup is in caring, experienced hands. I provide not just exercise, but love, enrichment, and a calm reassurance that brings owners back time and time again. Let me help your dog feel adored every step of the way! As a dedicated dog walker with 10 years of experience, my days and weeks revolve around the joy of caring for dogs. Each morning, I design custom walks and enrichment activities that fit each pup’s personality, while my flexible days let me accommodate both regular clients and new furry friends. Whether it’s a morning power walk or an evening stroll, I bring consistency, care, and a deep love for each dog I walk, ensuring they—and their owners—feel confident and happy every step of the way. I provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. With over 10 years of experience as a dog walker, I know how vital trust, routine, and a secure space are for every pup. Whether I’m caring for them in their home or on a walk, I honor their daily routines, exercise needs, and individual personalities. I ensure each dog feels safe, loved, and excited for every visit, so both you and your pup can have complete peace of mind.
“Taylor was a wonderful pet sitter. Took great care of my anxious dog and cat, staying overnight at our house for most of a week. Followed instructions to a T with my dog’s medication and needs for going outside. Left the house clean and in great shape. Would have her back anytime we need pet sitting.”
“Sophia was very flexible with a last minute sitting request for two dogs. She visited the home 3 times per day, walked the dogs 1-2 times per day, fed, and administered medications. The home was kept in the condition it was left in. The dogs were very comfortable and in good spirits after a 3 day sitting. Sophia had good communication and demeanor. She left check in messages and photos with every visit. Would definitely book with Sophia again.”
“Tess is great! My two dogs clearly were loved by the look from all the pictures she sent me. The house is as clean as I left it and she communicated the whole time I was gone. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Will did an amazing job with our puppy Reesey and kitty Lindy! He was great about keeping us updated on how they were doing and sent tons of pics! We left for the weekend and trusted him to stay at our house, would do it again if needed!”
“Amy was great, didn’t hesitate to ask questions to make sure the pets were taken care of properly, and made sure to give them treats and cuddles. My cat and dog seemed very happy. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have grown up around a large variety. I’ve pet sat and dog walked for friends and neighbors over the years off and on. I work from home during the week and come a go a bit on weekends. I wouldn’t ever be gone more than 8 hours for any animal. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. I’m very attentive to pets in my home and make sure that they are in safe environments with everything they need. I am very respectful in other people’s homes and make sure the pets are well taken care of. If boarding at my home, I did just get two roommates who live upstairs and one of them has a cat who is friendly with dogs. There is a door to separate the upstairs as well.
About: I've been raised with cats my whole life and currently have several fur babies. I also have pet rats. Experienced caregiver to both. My parents have dogs and cats and I have experience with handling larger dogs and caring for small animals in general. I Currently work full time, Monday through Fri day 9am-6pm so would primarily be available Friday evening through Monday morning. I there is an emergency or if you have adequate office accomodations at your place of residence I would consider weekday availability on a case-by-case basis as I work remotely, usually from home. I would prefer instructions on what is needed for each pet; location of food, any special dietary or medical needs, playtime preferences, any particular routines or behaviors that are important or would make them feel comfortable.
“Kylie did a great job with my dogs. I always arrived home from my trips to happy dogs and my house in good condition. She gave me great peace of mind when I had to go out of town.”
“Allison watched my two Australian shepherds for a short weekend getaway and she was great! She sent a few photo and video updates and it was very obvious the dogs had a ton of fun playing and cuddling with her. She was also very responsive. Will for sure book with her again!”
“Nicole cared for our 2, high maintenance Great Danes for a week in our home. She was fabulous. Our younger Dane has separation anxiety when we leave. Nicole was able to conquer his anxiety and gain his trust quickly. He was going outside ,eating and playing with toys. The older Dane was receiving his own attention and playtime. We came home to happy dogs, clean house and delicious cookies. I’m already booking with her again. She’s a gem!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our three boxers received! It was clear Hannah had a genuine love for dogs and plenty of experience handling larger breeds. Our pups can be a handful, but she managed them with patience, confidence, and lots of affection. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how much fun they were having. It was obvious our dogs felt safe, happy, and loved the entire time we were away. Coming home to three relaxed and well-cared-for dogs was the best feeling. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hazel Park
Kylie stayed with our two cats for two weeks while we were out of town. One of our cats requires oral medication twice daily. Kylie did this easily. She communicated with us and sent daily pictures of our babies. Also, at the end of the stay she went above and beyond to wash the sheets, towels, and ran the dishwasher.
This was our first time using a Rover sitter, and I feel so lucky that we found Meredith! She watched our dog Duke while we were away getting married. She was so patient and was willing to work with us leading up to the house sitting stay. She took Duke on weekly walks to ensure he was comfortable with her. We really appreciate her taking the time to make sure we were all comfortable. Duke is usually very nervous meeting new people, but he seemed to instantly warm up her to calm and friendly personality. Which was such a relief to us! During the stay she provided regular updates on how Duke was doing, and brought in packages, and even cleaned up after a shelf fell in our basement. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to take care of our boy and keep our minds at ease while we enjoyed our wedding weekend. We’ll definitely book with Meredith in the future!
Allison watched my two Australian shepherds for a short weekend getaway and she was great! She sent a few photo and video updates and it was very obvious the dogs had a ton of fun playing and cuddling with her. She was also very responsive. Will for sure book with her again!
We have had nothing but the best experiences with Aden dog sitting (twice now). We received regular updates with pics and both of our dogs looked happy and relaxed. Our dogs are older and can get anxious, so it is always very reassuring to see them happy with a sitter- we really couldn’t ask for better care and communication than we have found with Aden! Thanks again!! ✨💕
Emily was great with my 2 dogs while I was away for business travel. She stayed at my house to provide care and was very good about communicating updates in the form of photos, videos, and texting! I can tell she feels comfortable and confident working with dogs of various sizes and personalities! Emily seemed to truly care about and enjoy spending time with my fur babies. They got lots of walks, playtime and cuddles! Emily was respectful of my home and followed all care instructions that I provided. She did have several personal obligations where she needed to leave for a short bit, but let me know when she needed to be gone. I felt good about knowing that Emily was there while I could not be home. I would recommend her services to other pet parents!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Hazel Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Hazel Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Hazel Park choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
