“Andrea was great with our Arlo. They became fast friends! I could tell in the video she sent, Arlo will definitely enjoy having her around. Thankful for the video and pictures, knowing Arlo was having a good time. It makes not being home, a little more bearable during the day, that I know Arlo is taken care of.”
“Megan did an awesome job taking care of and over seeing our boy. Really appreciated Megan’s attention to detail, notes and pictures. Will definitely use Megan and Rover again for our next trip!”
“Florence was fantastic! She looked after our senior cat and gave him the best care he's received in 12 years. Her updates and reports made us feel like we were still at home, and quickly became the highlight of our day. She went above and beyond across the board, highly recommend. Looking forward to booking with Florence again!”
“We are so grateful for Abbey caring for our 18.5 year old cat who needed daily medications and fluids twice while we were away! She managed everything according to our requested instructions and communicated with us as well. She provided a lot of peace of mind for us while we were away. Thank you Abbey! You will be our first call on our next trip! 😻”
“Jenna was a fantastic sitter for my kitty! My usual cat sitters weren’t available for the holiday weekend, so I needed to find someone asap. This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous, but Jenna did everything I asked her to do every visit and sent me so many adorable pictures of my cat playing and snuggling with her. I’m very appreciative of Jenna being able to schedule my kitty into her weekend the week of. She’s very kind and sweet and obviously loves cats. I’ll definitely be contacting Jenna if I end up in the same situation again!”
“Holly was awesome with Luna and helped me out on short notice! She was reliable and provided me with great updates so I knew my fur baby was doing OK while I was away.”
“Brooke was fantastic checking in on our old lady dog while we were gone. She even spent extra time outside with her when she saw how much she enjoyed just being outside. Highly recommend Brooke if you’re looking for excellent pet care.”
“Maelee was wonderful with our fur baby. We were gone a pretty lengthy time. Knowing he was in good hands gave us peace of mind. She kept us updated with several photos which we appreciated. Would definitely recommend her.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for small doggies. As a pet parent myself, I understand the importance of following care instructions to a "T" and providing frequent updates & photos. I work from home full time so your dog will never be alone while in my care. I will be able to let them outside every 3-4 hours. I have two dogs myself (Burt & Minnie). I also have a cat but she almost always goes into hiding whenever we have any guests over (whether they’re 2 or 4-legged) so that shouldn’t be an issue!
“Madison has been great with Loki! She has been flexible with my work schedule. He is a puppy so he is a bit demanding. She tends to him right away and plays with him until the end of the visit. The picture updates are much appreciated!”
“Faith took great care of our kitties while we were on vacation and even made friends with our super-skittish one. It was hard to leave them for so long, but she communicated daily and included cute snaps of our babies. We will definitely be relying on her in the future!”
“Andrea was great with my cat. She saved the day when my flight was delayed by last minute dropping in to feed and play with Milo and put a meal delivery in the fridge.”
“Ema sent photos and detailed notes from all of her visits. Anytime something came up she was quick to reach out and ask for next steps. I appreciate her communication and attentiveness!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jenison
This was my first time using Rover and I had a great experience with Meghan. She was available even though the booking was short notice (under two weeks). We met briefly to go over the pets’ routine before we left. She was efficient and communicative, sending photos and responding if I had any questions. Many thanks, Meghan! Good luck with the end of vet school!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Jenison is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 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 1,585 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Jenison. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jenison. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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.
