Courtney was a wonderful sitter. I have very social cats but I could tell when she first met them that they’d be in good hands. She even fed my mice that I hadn’t previously mentioned (I recommend always telling your sitter in advanced if you have “extra” pets so they’re aware, though, that’s on me). But she was so friendly and easy to communicate with. I’d also hired her to water my plants but because of the rain we got she didn’t have to. The fact that she was willing to do so and asked questions to make sure she did things right was more than enough for me. My home was also exactly as I left it, so I really appreciated Courtney’s efforts. The cats were asking about her when she left so she must’ve done something right. 10/10!

We have used Rover before, but no one has ever come close to the service she provided. She went above and beyond, traveling more than 45 minutes to accommodate our needs. She arrived early and stayed late with our bulldog, giving us complete peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and we could tell she genuinely cared. Highly recommend!!

Ella accommodated my request with short notice after an unexpected trip. She took very good care of my dog and I would happily rebook her again!

Justin did a great job caring for our cats over the holidays. He sends lots of pictures, spends extra time, and makes sure they have everything they need.

Anna was very prompt with her meet and greet, which gave us a good feeling up front. She was able to win the dogs over very quickly which says alit about her demeanor with pets. Her responses to questions were comforting for a remote pet owner. I would certainly recommend her to friends.

About: I have had pets since I was a small child and all throughout adulthood so have a ton of experience! Growing up we had a golden retriever (he lived to be 15) and then a mini dachshund. Currently, my husband and I have a cat, an American Hairless Terrier, a Wire-Haired Pointing Griffon and a Doberman Pinscher who are all very sweet and family friendly. My husband is also an AKC registered dog breeder and is the owner of Kyloe Legacy Kennels so I have experience with helping to raise a litter of puppies as well! I look forward to helping take care of your furry loved ones! I am currently home for the summer since I work in the schools as a speech-language pathologist. I have a 2 year old and an 11 year old at home who both love pets. Our oldest is away at college! I have a fenced in yard. We have lots of space for dogs to play and can walk them in our neighborhood. Your dog can be any combination of loose in the home, gated in the kitchen/dining area, or in a crate depending on the dogs needs throughout the day and night.

Kendra is a wonderful petsitter. She was quick to initially respond to my request and she scheduled a meet and greet quickly to see if our job was a good fit. First impressions was that Kendra was kind and professional. She was reported her daily check-in and was patient with my kitty who was timid and hid from her until the last day. I'm thrilled to have found Kendra and will be reaching out for future trips.

Jessie did a great job looking after our cats while we were away! She was great about providing updates and was very prompt in all communication. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Jessie again in the future.

Sara was everything I could have asked for in a pet sitter and more. This was my first time using a pet sitter outside of close friends or family, so I was incredibly nervous. From our very first messages, though, I knew Sara was the right fit. I have a very anxious dog and two cats with behavioral issues who need to be kept separated at all times. My cats routine isn’t the most common, but Sara followed it exactly as I asked and never made me feel judged for the extra steps there care requires. It meant so much to know my pets were in the hands of someone who truly listened and respected their needs and routine. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like they’re her own, Sara is the one. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Ishpeming on Rover is $16.65 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 34 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ishpeming. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
