“Melissa took amazing care of our dogs for the long weekend. She sent pictures and when we returned the dogs were happy and the house was tidy so we couldn’t have been happier!”
“Maya was very pleased and enjoyed her time with Ashleigh. Ashleigh showed up on time and was tentative to Maya and her doggie needs. We saw pictures of their walks and heard what Maya was dying all day. We will definitely use Ashleigh again in the future. Malinda”
“Nicholas did an amazing job house sitting for our dog and cat. He was responsive, respectful and made sure he understood our instructions prior to the sit. He sent us photos and an update daily and went above and beyond for the comfort of our pets. They will be so excited to see him again the next time we leave town!”
“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.”
“Kateri (Rebekah) was amazing! We will definitely have her back! She took excellent care of our goldendoodle, sent pictures/updates every day, and went above and beyond to take care of our house while we were gone. We couldn’t have asked for anything more!”
“Nicole was wonderful with our dog Oscar while we were on vacation. She is so patient and gentle with dogs who have separation anxiety. Nicole also left our home very neat and tidy!”
“Bonnie is amazing. Very responsive with communication. She had her first day yesterday with my daughter’s puppy who had just been spayed. She was very attentive to her needs, sent pictures throughout the day and kept me updated. Looking forward to having her two more days this week, we feel very comfortable with her. I would definitely use Bonnie anytime for either one of my dogs.”
“Jennifer was awesome and I would highly recommend her to watch your pets. We hired her for a 5 day/4 night engagement to watch our moderate energy 5 year old Bernese mountain dog. She sent pics and texts a few times a day which eased my mind! He got plenty of walks and love. Jennifer approaches this form a business owner perspective and even had a PDF “Pet and House Guide” for me to fill out ahead of time that thought of all the random pet and house info so I didn’t have to stress about what to leave notes about. In addition to all this, Jennifer even ran the dishwasher and laundry before she left. Your pets and home will be well cared for with Jennifer!”
“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!”
“Sarah took such amazing care of our dog, two cats, and home while we were out of town. She provided picture updates throughout the day. I didn’t have to worry at all about my babies while we were gone. Her communication was top notch. I will definitely use Sarah again!”
“Mackenzie was a fantastic house-sitter and dog-watcher during our honeymoon trip! Super responsive, house was in good order when we returned home, and our pup was happy and healthy. Will definitely use again when the need arises!”
“Grace did great with my dog Stella. Grace spent a lot of time with her and took her on walks which was super helpful especially sense Stella can be a challenge to walk. I would recommend using Grace.”
“Jessica was absolutely wonderful with Asher! He’s a friendly, affectionate dog, but he can be a little cautious in new situations and with new people. Jessica was patient, intuitive, and gave him the time he needed to warm up. Before long, they were enjoying playful moments together, and it was clear she understood his personality—especially letting him lead the way on their walks, which he absolutely loves. Jessica was also an excellent communicator throughout the weekend. She shared thoughtful updates and just the right number of photos, giving us peace of mind without overwhelming us. It was clear Asher was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. On top of taking such great care of Asher, she left our home spotless and tidy. We came home to a happy dog and a beautifully cared-for house. We can’t wait to have Jessica stay with Asher again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and thoughtful sitter!”
“Gabbie stayed at our house with our 8yr old lab mix over a very busy holiday weekend. Gabbie and our dog seemed to get along very well and I'm so happy our dog had someone to keep her company instead of just letting her out a few times a day. We definitely will book with Gabbie again.”
“Erica was so great with our 2 dogs. Both dogs needed meds and have some medical issues. She took such good care of Ottikar and Piper and when we returned both dogs were calm and the house was immaculate! Thank you Erica! Excited to have you watch them again.”
“Judy provided great communication the entire trip and ensured my dog got the correct medications. She left the house clean and it gave me peace of mind knowing Judy was at home with my dog.”
“Brianna was professional, empathetic and extremely caring for Balthazar. This was our first house sitting experience and we are so grateful we found her. Will definitely use her again!”

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 $35 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,394 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.
