About: Hi! My name is Alecia and I am a lifelong animal lover and a mama of 2 (plus my own furbaby - Bailey!) who understands how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I provide dependable, patient care and will treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or just keeping a familiar routine, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and can provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and lots of affection. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your fur child is in good hands. I am currently self employed and work my own hours and schedule however I choose! So I have the flexibility to be available whenever your fur baby needs care! I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Before each stay or visit, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, favorite toys, and any special needs or quirks. In my home, pets receive plenty of love, attention, supervised playtime, and a comfortable, clean environment. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy fresh air under my supervision. I also make sure they have plenty of opportunities to rest and feel at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’ll provide fresh food and water, walks or playtime, lots of affection (if they enjoy it!), clean up after them, and make sure they receive any medications or special care exactly as instructed. I’ll also send regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care that keeps both pets and their owners comfortable and confident.

“Patty was a great communicator from start to finish. She kept us informed on our cats and treated our house well. We would definitely let her watch our house and kitties again. Thanks Patty!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have hands on experience for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities! Growing up, my mom trained dogs professionally, which gave me early experience to dog behavior and proper pet care. Throughout high school, I regularly helped care for up to 10 dogs at a time, assisting with daily routines, exercise, feeding, and general care. I also grew up with a cat, and have always loved spending time with cats just as much as dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level, and I strive to make them feel safe and comfortable in yalls home. During college, I worked as a nanny for a family and was responsible for walking and caring for their two Great Danes. This experience gave me great confidence in handling larger breeds, and reminded me how important it is to be consistent and reliable. I bring responsibility, attention to detail, and genuine care to every pet I work with. Whether it’s a walk, a drop in visit, or overnight care, I will treat your pet just like family and provide you with updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday from 8AM-5PM at the Community Mental Health in downtown Traverse City, but have some flexibility. I am available for dog walks and drop in visits for an hour any time between 12PM-2PM during the week. I am available from 5:30PM-11 PM Monday-Friday, and have open availability on Saturdays and Sundays. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved family member is a big decision, and I take it seriously. When caring for pets in their own home, I strive to keep their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, or just spending quality time together, I know that consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their parents are away. I am always respectful of clients’ homes and will always follow care instructions carefully. I pay close attention to detail, keep doors and gates secure, monitor pets, and communicate promptly if any concerns arise. My goal is to give you and your pet a stress free experience and peace of mind that comes from knowing they are being care for by someone dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in their wellbeing. Every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care.

About: While I grew up a Cat Person, I’ve become a Dog Lover as well in the last decade. Currently have 2 loving rescue cats at home, but miss walking the Dog. After my Partners dog passed a few years ago we have been helping my Brother watch his Dog and help out with other friends dogs. We’d love another doggo, but just haven’t been able to replace Mochi ❤️. I usually walk every morning through the Downtown TC neighborhoods. I work Monday through Friday usually 9a-6p so I also have evening availability after work. I can easily stop by for house visits or walks in the morning or evening. Not currently having animals at our house due to our anxious cat Clementine.

Kayla is the best! She has given our kitty loving care when we have been out of town and the pics she sends during her visits were so appreciated. We highly recommend her!

Lola did great with Stephanie and Scott. She seemed to be perfectly content when we returned from our four-days away. Stephanie was easy to work with. Highly recommend and I would use Stephanie and Scott again.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Interlochen

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Interlochen is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $26 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.

As of November 2026, there are 28 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Interlochen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 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.
