Kacy was the best & well worth the $100 tip! She provided last minute services to pick up my Remi (whom she had never met) from the vet and followed detail instructions to take her to the suites. This was a very challenging decision as I am not from or live in NJ and didnt know anyone. This dog lover is the best! I will use her services again hands down! Me & Remi thank you so much Kacy!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I currently work at a dog daycare, where I regularly handle dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m experienced with feeding routines, playtime, and closely monitoring behavior to keep every dog safe and comfortable. I’ve also administered medications and given insulin shots to dogs, so I’m confident caring for pets with special needs. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for currently work part-time at a dog daycare, so caring for dogs is already a big part of my daily routine. I work mornings on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday, which leaves me available in the afternoons and evenings on those days. I’m also available most weekends, and I’m working toward having an even more flexible schedule soon. I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and consistency I prioritize a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. While I can offer care in my home when needed, I typically prefer caring for pets in their own home where they feel most relaxed and secure. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments through my work at a dog daycare, and I always supervise interactions closely and follow each dog’s routine. I’m also comfortable with crating if needed and have experience administering medications, including injections

About: I love all types of dogs, and am the type of person who can't pass a dog in the street without stopping to say hi and give him/her a pet. I have a dog of my own, Mia, a 7 year old German Shepherd mix. I love her, but she's a handful, so I have experience with dogs who might need a little extra attention and care. I'm a teacher and off for the summer so I have plenty of time during the week (and on some weekends) to walk your pup. Unfortunately, my dog is not the most friendly to others so I cannot host your dog in my home. We'll have fun being out and about though!

About: I am a undergraduate pre-vet student who currently works part time as a vet assistant at an emergency/specialty veterinary hospital, so trust me when I say there’s not a single day I’m not surrounded by furry friends. On my off days, you’ll find me volunteering with local shelters near my university or my hometown during summer breaks! I care for all animals as if they were my own and I truly find joy in spending time with them. I am very flexible fitting to your pets needs and I am comfortable administering medications if necessary. I love to send picture updates as well :) I am currently working part-time at a veterinary emergency/specialty hospital on Sundays and Mondays (8-7) but I am flexible throughout the week around those days! I highly emphasize a safe and stress-free experience for your pet and work patiently to help nervous or anxious animals feel as comfortable as possible.

About: Hi! My name is Audrey. I have experience caring for pets through personal and informal care, including feeding, walking, and providing companionship for dogs and cats. I’m very comfortable with drop-in visits and understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s routine while their owner is away. I can administer medication if necessary. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always follow care instructions closely. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for, and I provide clear updates and photos after each visit. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious pets and aim to create a calm, reassuring presence. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Caring for pets fits easily into my weekly routine, and I genuinely enjoy making time for drop-in visits and walks. I keep a flexible schedule so I can be available when pets need care, and I always do my best to be consistent, punctual, and attentive. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free during drop-in visits. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, litter box care, and medications if needed. I always pay attention to safety, making sure doors are closed and pets are secure before leaving. I also spend time giving pets affection and calm companionship so they feel cared for while their owner is away. I send updates and photos after each visit for peace of mind 💛

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and reliable pet lover with experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I currently have two dogs, so caring for animals is a part of my everyday life. Over the years, I’ve cared for many pets through drop-in visits, dog walks, senior pet care and overnights. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, playtime, medication reminders, or just some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. One of my favorite parts of pet care is seeing the excitement on a dog’s face when I walk through the door. Building trust and creating a positive experience for every pet is something I truly enjoy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving you peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members soon! 🤍 I currently am working part time at my job, but I old love to spend my mornings/afternoons taking care of your pets! My availability is flexible and can also accept weekend bookings I currently have a small fenced yard where my dogs are able to go out during the day and soak up the sun! They love being outdoors so we can play. I am willing to accommodate any type of service your pets need!

About: I love long term stays and getting to know your pet but do any length. Will travel. Current grad student. I’ve done pet sitting for over ten years. Everything from one day to 3 weeks of housesitting. Have had dogs and cats on and off my entire life but due to work currently cant have a pup of my own. Love getting to make new pup friends. No professional training just lots of love cuddles and long walks to give! Happy to do a discount for multiple pets or long stays. Rover automatically sets the rates and doesn't let you change based on main rate. Current grad student (almost entirely remote) so will be able to spend lots of time with your pup or kitty! Always happy to explore a new town walking around with a great pup. Perfer to sit in your home as it keeps the pets more comfortable but will host on a case by case basis if I feel your pet is a good fit.

Mary was awesome. She accommodated a pretty short notice request for our first time for a drop-in. And while our dogs can be anxious around new people, she had no concerns and took them out and played with them and they had a blast. We will definitely be using her services again.

Jules is amazing! We just moved to Miami and are so glad to have found her. She went above and beyond caring for our two kitties. She is definitely an animal person, and really spent time giving them attention and love while also following my food instructions to a T. Definitely booking her again for all future cat sitting!

I appreciate Rover for connecting Samantha and I. My dog Groot warmed up to her very quickly on our meet and greet. Setting it up went very smoothly, as she offered to meet at our home, making it so much easier to acclimate both her, as our sitter, and our fur baby to the new visitor. She was great in communication and reassurance with her time. The best part was receiving pictures of his potty break and walks! Would highly recommend, and will most definitely be hiring again, for our next trip out of town. Thanks again Samantha! We appreciated your help so much while we were out of town for the holiday!

Catherine was absolutely amazing! Our dog is shy and sometime anxious around strangers but she ran to Catherine during the initial visit. She was very responsive and sent the best pictures and updates every time she dropped in for a visit. She even offered to bring in the mail and kept some of our plants alive. I would definitely recommend her! This was the best experience and I felt completely at ease.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Howell on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 4,073 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Howell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Howell 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.

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 Howell 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!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Howell with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Howell. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
