“Robin was great with our two girls. She was reliable and trustworthy and helped me out with a short notice request. Definitely recommend and will use in the future! Thank you!”
“Emily took wonderful care of our dogs and was able to administer difficult medications to one of our dogs. She was super communicative and sent pictures of our dogs. I will definitely be using her again when she’s available!”
“Cara was awesome with coming over to first meet my dogs and making sure they were a good fit, especially since I have a dog with special needs. Both of my dogs loved her! She is very friendly, quick to respond and answered all of my questions. I got lots of pictures after their first check-in which I appreciate. I had happy dogs when I got home and it was very nice not having to worry about them while I wasn't home. I will definitely book with Cara again!”
“Renee has been amazing! My shitzhu isn’t used to being left alone during the day as I used to work from home. Renee comes over and takes him for a walk and plays with him and gives him lots of love. I would recommend her highly.”
“Amazing sitter!! So professional and thorough; our cats loved her (even the shy one). Very proactive in caring for our cats, definitely went above and beyond. Would absolutely book again to drop in on our kitties while we are away! Thank you Ciaran!!”
About: I've owned dogs a majority of my life, both large and small breed. I've house trained and crate trained my own dogs so I have some experience with that, as well. I have 2 cats in the home but they tend to stay away from any new dogs, often hiding in their own room that the dogs are not allowed in. I work from home, which allows lots of one on one time with your pet. I'm able to flex my work schedule based on whatever is needed. I have a fenced in yard, which my own pup loves to run in. Lots of toys and playtime with plenty of comfy surfaces to nap on after.
About: Hi! I’m Kat! 🐾 I've spent much of my life around & caring for animals, I’ve assisted in volunteer work at a shelter working with animals of all type & size! I have experience with animals with: special needs, medical conditions & special diets. Pet care & well being is my priority, I want to ensure a happy and comfortable experience for you & your animal companion. I'm now exclusively working in animal care & services! My schedule for booking is updated regularly, if there is a date that is unavailable or booked out, please reach out. I may be able to open up my schedule for you! Health, safety and well being of an animal is a priority to me, in my personal life and in the experience I have caring for animals, it is not something I take a risk on and is my priority as a guardian and caretaker, I do not take any chances with possibilities of potential harm or safety of an animal. I also keep extra leashes & leads, cooling collars for warmer days, bowls, bathroom bags, and safety gear in my car + on me at all times during our bookings. I carry water with me on walks as well for our furry friend!
“I am so thankful for Ally. She really gave me peace of mind helping me out with drop in visits. The pictures she sent were great and really showed that she interacts with the dogs. I got a feeling she was there to be their friend not just doing a job. I happened to see her on camera being very very sweet to them as well and I could tell my dogs were happy to have her as a new friend.”
“Heather was amazing and I can tell by all the photos she sent that my two cats were very comfortable around her. Will definitely use her again! She was very quick to respond and gave great updates. My boys were definitely well-cared for and I came home to two happy cats! Thank you!”
“Erin was great! She was able to watch my dogs last minute and squeeze in a meet and greet the day before. She was reliable, prompt, and followed all of my detailed instructions. I sincerely appreciate her services!”
“We can’t say enough good things about Jackie! She’s been our go-to sitter for Nigel for quite a while now, and every time we book with her, we know he’s in the best hands. Jackie treats Nigel like he’s her own, always giving him so much love, attention, and care. She’s incredibly reliable, thoughtful, and communicative, sending regular updates and photos that always make us smile. It’s such a relief knowing Nigel is happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we’re away. We’re so grateful for Jackie and couldn’t imagine trusting anyone else with our boy. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly wonderful sitter! 🐶💙”
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 always acknowledge that our furry friends aren’t just pets, but living beings with feelings and boundaries that deserve to be respected. If your pet needs a little more time and patience getting to know me, I’m open to doing a meet and greet in your home before you decide to fully commit to make sure everyone is comfortable before we establish a working relationship! I work from home so my schedule is flexible! I prefer mornings and afternoons, though I can adjust my hours to fit you and your individual needs. I provide plentiful updates and clear communication to ensure that you and your pet are well taken care of, if it’s important to you it’s important to me!
“We had such a great experience with Hannah. She took care of our cats for nearly two weeks and we felt completely at ease the entire time. We received regular updates and lots of photos. Wouldn’t hesitate to book with Hannah again!”
“Carissa was excellent with our cats, feeding them and checking in on them while we were away. She was a great communicator and gave fun, detailed reports each day. Would definitely book with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Madison Heights
Sydney was wonderful to have watch my cat! She was super prompt with visiting on the scheduled times, and she sent such good updates and cute photos. I could tell she also gave my cat so much love while I was gone. Sydney was also sweet enough to water my outdoor flowers everyday, which I was so appreciative of. I will definitely request Sydney to cat sit again in the future.
This was our first time booking with Rover or Katie and what a great experience it was! Katie was very responsive and did a fantastic job with our diabetic, senior cat! I’m very protective of our pets so I was thrilled when Katie agreed to stop by for a meet & greet. We were able to see how well the cats responded to her and how comfortable they were with her immediately! If you are hesitant to book with Rover like I was, I highly suggest booking with Katie! Thank you again!
Ally was simply the best. Constant communication, and most importantly my cats took to her immediately! It’s so comforting knowing while I’m out of town I have someone back home who loves and cares for them like they were her own, truly the best! . I would highly recommend her, she cares a lot and it shows in her check in’s, and the fact that my cats were belly up for her ready for some pets!
As always, really pleased with how Emily makes sure to show each of our pets a few moments of attention and affection while we’re gone. Her notes / reports are reassuring and show us how much she learns their personalities too! We’ve had issues come up on our trips and Emily is gracious enough to offer additional time with them until we get back if we need it. We can’t recommend Emily enough to care for the ones we worry about while we’re away!
Jackie went above and beyond our expectations for cat-sitting services. She was patient and willing to do a meet and greet before booking, made sure she understood feeding and medical instructions, and offered to take care of other things around the house while we were away. She was prompt and communicative and I’m so glad we booked with her! Will definitely use her services again soon. ☺️
Hannah was incredibly attentive and responsible while taking care of Delta during our time away. She kept the litter box and food bowls clean, and we really appreciated the thoughtful care she provided. We’d be more than happy to book with Hannah again in the future!
Stephanie came to the rescue as a cat sitter for my sweet kitty (who we had never been away from) during a very stressful time in our lives. She was extremely kind, communicative, and helpful, and flexible with our rapidly changing schedule. Our kitty took to her immediately, which was amazing because he is usually likes to observe for awhile before deciding about people! She has a calm energy about her that he really responded to, and they were quick friends! Stephanie followed my rather comprehensive care instructions perfectly, and it was obvious how well cared for he was while we were away. It was so reassuring to know that things at home were well under control, and that our kitty now has a friend we can call next time we are away!
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!!

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.
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 Madison Heights. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 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.
