“Nurra was wonderful with my two dogs! I made a last-minute request, and she was kind enough to accommodate it, which I really appreciated. She was professional, polite, and a great communicator throughout the drop-in visits. She even went the extra mile by taking the dogs for a walk. I felt comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands and would happily recommend Nurra to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Amazing! My cats are very skittish around new people, but my girl looked very happy and relaxed in the video Elizabeth sent me. And my boy made an appearance, which is more than I expected! I feel very relieved knowing they’re in good hands for my upcoming trip.”

About: I have been around animals my whole life. From pigs to dogs, I have taken care of a lot of animals. I started off pet siting for family members and friends and recently started caring through Rover. I love the community on the app and have had so much fun getting to know everyone’s pets. I am currently a full time student at the University of Michigan-Dearborn. I play collegiate softball which has shown me positive time management skills. I work part time as a mobility tech at an hospital and have worked multiple other jobs. Because I only work part time, my schedule is very flexible and open. I have one dog and two cats at home. My dog is full of energy so I am in charge of taking him on walks and outside on the daily. My cats are very low energy and love to sleep. I am able to care for high energy or low energy animals since I have experience with both.
“Faith checked in on our cat while we were out of town for spring break. There was a little hiccup at the beginning but we figured it, and after that every went smoothly. Faith was very honest and accommodating which I both appreciate very much. Communication went well, and the regular picture updates showed clearly that our cat felt comfortable enough around Faith to come close engough to get petted and to play. We arrived home to a well cared for cat and home. Thank you very much. When we need a sitter again and our schedules line up, I'm booking Faith again.”

About: I’ve taken care of a wide range of pets and have lots of experience. I had cats and dogs growing up and started pet sitting for neighbors and family friends when I was around 12 years old. I am used to taking care of both puppies and kittens along with senior cats and dogs. I have pet sit for animals that require medication and looked after my own dogs post surgery. I have volunteered at shelters/fostered and worked with animals of all temperaments. I just got back from a year abroad and won’t be starting school back up until January so I have lots of time and no set schedule. I often go to the gym Monday and Friday morning and hikes with my mothers dog on the weekends but I’m flexible. I have pet sit and my home and at the clients home and am comfortable with either! My house has a fenced in yard and is close to a park. I have recently taken in my grandfathers elderly cat she’s very quiet and sweet and spends most of her time sleeping in my bed. I also occasionally watch my moms husky mix who loves to play with other dogs.

About: Hello, I’m Rick, an experienced pet sitter dedicated to providing exceptional care for your furry family members in the comfort of their own home. I specialize in in-home house sitting because pets are always happiest and least stressed when they get to stick to their normal routines in familiar surroundings. Whether you’re heading out of town for the weekend, going on an extended vacation, or need reliable care over the holidays, I offer complete piece of mind while you’re away. I have cared for puppies all the way up to seniors. I require a smoke free home for my own health and breathing comfort. I am best suited to care for small to medium dogs, or specific breeds I know well. I am available 7 days per week, in addition to holidays. I walk pets in the morning and afternoon. Bonus if you live in Livonia because I will also stop in on lunch. Sometimes my random vacation days coincide with pet sitting as well. Currently, I do not have any pets, but when I did, I make all the time in the world for them. I have always cared for others’ little family members in their homes. The animals are more comfortable that way, and not anxious. There are a few that I care for so often, they gave me my own key to make it more convenient. If that doesn’t show an example of trust….

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Inkster
Rhonda was really amazing and we will absolutely rebook her in the future. She was extremely easy to coordinate and communicate with, and provided really thorough updates on our two cats during each check-in. She provided extensive descriptive updates on the cats during her visits to our house and did an excellent job at each visit - arriving at the requested time, making sure the litters were clean, and that the kitties had enough food and water, and spending quality time with them. She went above and beyond and we appreciate everything that she did for our kitties.
Elizabeth did a wonderful job taking care of our cats during a long vacation. She was incredibly consistent with her timing to help keep the cats daily routine intact and unbothered. She also sent lots of great pictures showing that the kitties were happy and having fun playing with her. Made it so much easier to enjoy vacation knowing my cats were in such good hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Inkster is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 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.

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.

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 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.
