“Erika was great! She went out of her way to come meet my dog before dropping in and was super thorough. I had no concerns and felt confident and comfortable that my dog was in great hands!”
“Carissa made sure our senior pup went potty even though she was being difficult! Carissa also sent adorable pics of our dog during the drop-in visit and made sure she was comfortable upon leaving.”
About: I had both of my dogs since they were puppies. I have experience in taking care of puppies and dog training in general. I also groom my dogs at home and prepare balanced nutritional dog food at home from fresh ingredients. I currently work in a hybrid mode where I have 1 day working from home and other 4 days going to office for half day. I have a fenced in yard for dogs to explore freely. Dogs can also roam around freely in doors. We have a finished basement where dogs are allowed to hang out and watch TV. My two friendly Golden Retrievers will be great play buddies for your pup. There is a big park near me that has paved walk path and natural trails in woods, where I take my dogs for walks and meet other people and dogs.
About: I started dog walking as a young teen trying to earn some pocket money. During the walks, I started to feel like I was enjoying them more than my partners! I loved it so much. Being outdoors, going where their noses take you, the spontaneity of it all. It’s a very exciting time for our friends to go outside and explore, and it makes it much better when they have someone who’s as excited as they are! I’m a full time employee working a government job. I am typically away from 8-5, but am free after 5 for as long as possible. I have never had an animal that required outdoor fencing or safeguarding, but if I do, I would plan on getting a reliable fence to keep our animals safe while exploring. I am very attentive to all animals, and try to make sure they are comfortable and that they feel choice and not just a stranger commanding them.

“Jordyn is a MUST HAVE. She was extremely responsive and able to accept my booking request last minute on a holiday! I am so picky when it comes to people visiting my home and fur baby and she checked all the boxes! A+ Jordyn.”
“Great communication, went above and beyond, and the animals really seemed to be happy! So easy to work with. I would be happy to have Jess watch my cats again, such a great job!”
“Chelsea was great. She really helped me out when I was in a pinch to find a sitter. I came home to a very happy and excited pup. He ran right up to me and was dancing around, I imagine he was trying to tell me about his new friend.”
“Ashley has come over multiple times for our two dogs - she is amazing with communication and our dogs love her. We have two pit mixes (one is very hyper and the other is a lazy girl) and Ashley has done a wonderful job managing them both. We are happy we found someone we trust for drop in’s ☺️”
“Katherine is AMAZING!! She was super diligent to send me photos, extremely helpful and truly cares about fur babies. I’m so happy I found her and I am comforted to know that when I need help with my little furry one I know just who to call!!”
“very communicative! i love that jennifer was able to tolerate my pebble's neediness and even check on moose who happened to be hiding under blankets! would definitely book with her again!”
“Amanda was great with my black lab! She visited my home when I was at work to let my dog out. Amanda provided my dog with lots of play time, a walk, and sent plenty of pictures. Would highly recommend her services! 🐕🦺🐾”
About: I’ve watched my friends and families pets for since I was 15. I’ve also had animals all my life. That includes giving them baths, feeding them, walking, taking them to a dog park, anything and everything. I’m very determined to take care of such lovely animals and to keep them safe. I’m currently working part time, I’ll be going to school soon but I’m staying local so I’m still available. My schedule is pretty flexible and I’m willing to work around anything. I’ve got a fenced yard, two dogs and two cats. We keep them separated mainly for the dogs sake. They are still in training but will do nobody any harm.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Madison Heights
Kat is absolutely the best!! She is really knowledgeable in animal care, especially with senior dogs like ours. My dogs immediately loved her, and she was giving them a lot of love. My partner and I work long hours and we feel so much better knowing that Kat is there to visit our dogs during the day. We will definitely book her again!!
This experience was absolutely the best! I received tons of photos and videos, and I felt very secure about Kona’s walk. She even went above and beyond by bringing extra water and helping him through an upset tummy. I couldn’t have been more excited for this visit, and I will definitely be rebooking in the future.
First time user of Rover. I went out of the country for two weeks and my normal dog sitter fell thru last minute. I went and used Rover after many people recommending. I messaged a few sitters and sally was the first to respond. I cant begin to express how happy I was with her services and providing a great experience for my dog and cat. She was very transparent, provided multiple updates and was very timely with all her visits during the two weeks I was gone. I booked her for 3x a day for two weeks and showed up with them all on time. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again for sure!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Madison Heights stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Madison Heights 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Madison Heights with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
