“Mackenzie is the best pet sitter! My guy can be very leery of new people and she has sat with him now twice...he is very comfortable with her which I so appreciate! The house is left spotless and I come home to very happy dog! I have already booked her again.”
“Alicia was beyond fantastic! 20 out of 10! My cat was happy, relaxed and looked after. Alicia played with him, spent some quality time and made sure his routine was not interrupted. I especially enjoyed the daily photos and short videos of my cat! I m definitely rebooking her for my next trips :) thank you, Alicia!”
“If I could have given Rebecca more stars I would have. I was leaving my almost 16 yr old dog for a week (a vacation booked a year in advance and to be honest I didn't think I would need a pet sitter) . Chance has mobility and cognitive issues and we hadn't been apart overnight from each other in years. Rebecca came and met myself and Chance. She was very open and asked questions to understand Chance's needs and my wants in terms of care. She was FANTASTIC!!! She was meticulous about his schedule and care. I told her if she had any ideas to improve his life to let me know and she did have a few suggestions that have helped. She stayed in touch with texts and pictures throughout the week. My house was in as good if not better condition than when I left. Chance gained back the 2 pounds he had recently lost before the trip as well as an extra pound. I can't recommend Rebecca highly enough. She truly cares and loves your pet as if they are her own. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again.”
“Lauren is awesome! Very responsive, timely, and communicative and you can tell she truly cares about The pets she takes care of. Pepper was in great hands while I was gone. they even went for a run and long walk which my dog loves! My home was also extremely clean and tidy when I got back - I could hardly tell Lauren had stayed there! Thank you so much.”
“Carolyn took great care of my pup! She stayed in our home so he could be the most comfortable :) she gave him frequent walks and outside time and sent us pictures showing him living his best life! I felt very safe with her looking after my buddy and will definitely use her again :)”
“Melissa was great! This was our second time using her and we will definitely use her again! Definitely recommend her to come into your home and dog sit. She is wonderful with our puppy and Sassy loves her!”
“Samantha is amazing. Her communication is excellent and she sent us tons of pictures. This was our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous but Samantha put our minds at ease. She is professional and friendly and came over before she watched our pups to introduce herself to us and our dogs. She was a perfect fit and plan on using Rover and Samantha again!”
“Autumn did a great job with our lab and senior dog. She handled walkings, feedings, changing blue pads and kept the house in perfect shape. We are looking forward to her staying with them for our week vacation.”
“Natalie was wonderful with my elderly dog Taylor! She stayed in my home for 10 days, gave Taylor her medication twice a day and was able to keep an elderly dog comfortable in her routine. I’m very thankful for her care!”
“Breanna was so good with my Bentley bear! She was on time and very communicative. My dog has separation anxiety so it was nice to see him relaxed with her. Highly recommend 🙏🏼”
“Pavlina was wonderful with our 75 pound retriever and house sitting as well, thru a week long stay and thru a winter storm. We were relieved to see great pictures of Tock resting his head on Pavlina, a testament to her being a “dog person”.”
“Heather did a great job. House was as lean as we left it, and she washed the bed linens (an unexpected surprise) Dogs were not as happy to see us as they normally are.. Did she spoil them? LOL ? Anyways, great service, and thanks.”
About: Being in the military my schedule may fluctuate but don’t be afraid to ask if I can fit it in my schedule and I’ll be honest with you. Pet wise I’ve owned anything from a hermit crab to a Australian shepherd, German Shepherd, parrot, cats and rabbits. For all services I provide I ensure the best service with consistent updates on your pets well being. I love pets of all shapes and sizes and I can match the energy to any dog or cat. A happy pet is one who is stimulated and I promise you will not be disappointed. I’ve had many dogs of my own and currently live with a 2 year old husky, my roommates. If you have any questions, comments, or special requests feel free to reach out and I’ll reply swiftly.
“Josiah is an exceptional dog sitter with many years of experience working with dogs in different capacities. He is patient and kind and went out of his way to share ideas on how to help our new puppy adjust to her new environment. He kept me informed on how our puppy was doing while we were out, adhered to our puppy’s routine, and my house was exceptionally clean upon my return. I would highly recommend him to friends and family looking for a dog sitter.”
“We had a good experience with Lauren for overnight with our 2 dogs and 1 cat. I can only say I wish there were a few more updates throughout, but absolutely no issues. Thank you, Lauren”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Keego Harbor
She did a wonderful job watching our girl while we were away. She kept us updated every day and sent photos every day. Our 10yr old Great Dane is a glorified body pillow at this point, she doesn’t cause trouble and can stay alone for decent periods of time, even so, Rebecca asked us if was ok if she stayed out later one evening! Very considerate and respectful. Im also convinced that our house was cleaner when we came than how we left it. 10/10 recommend!
Alicia went far and beyond when my flights hit cancelled and I hit stuck for 2 days trying to get home. They were chancing on Kot to make sure he has food and water even after the sitting officially ended. They are by far the best pet care provider I have found!
Kelsey is incredible! She stayed at our house for the weekend with our three pups and was so attentive to their every need! She made sure to stay in contact with us and sent LOTS of pictures! You can tell she truly loves dogs and treats them like they are her own. Will be using Kelsey regularly :)
Carolyn took great care of our dog Bailey while staying in our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was very thoughtful about keeping us in the loop—sending updates and photos that reassured us everything was going smoothly. Bailey is an older pup who needs medication and a little extra TLC, and Carolyn handled his routine with ease and genuine care. It meant a lot to us to know he was comfortable and well looked after while we were out of the country. We truly appreciated Carolyn’s reliability and attentiveness, and we would gladly have her stay with Bailey again. Highly recommend!
Autumn did a great job with both dogs for the week we were gone. The dogs were both happy and the house very tidy and clean. She gave good updates and pictures during the week. I am looking forward to having her stay with the dogs again. We have a lab and a senior 18 year old Pomeranian mix. She was able to take of both of them and give the lab walks daily. I highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Keego Harbor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Keego Harbor on Rover is $34.13 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,357 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Keego Harbor. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Keego Harbor walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Keego Harbor maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Keego Harbor 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

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.
