Brittany is amazing with our 3 dogs (2 pit mixes and a schipperke) and 2 cats. She took such great care of them during our trip, followed our instructions and provided us with updates. We could tell that they loved her being there with them. All in all, we're blown away by the service we received and continue to receive with Brittany.

About: I am experienced pet sitter who has cared for dogs and cats for over 10 years. I have taken care of puppies, senior dogs, alongside both high energy and low energy pets. I am able to administer both oral and topical medications. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet while you're away and always ensure to take photos/videos for updates and give them all the attention they wish for. I have many years experience as a dog walker for drop in visits and with house sitting at client's homes while you're away at work. I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets with during the week and weekends. I am a freelancer with flexible scheduling. Within a client's home, I am happy to accommodate any preferred set up for maximum comfort for your pet. I am experienced with dog walking, providing oral or topical medication to pets, as well as in multi-pet households.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I genuinely love caring for dogs of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I previously volunteered at the animal shelter in Big Rapids, where I gained hands on experience walking dogs with different temperaments and caring for their daily needs. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to help dogs feel comfortable and safe in new environments. I also have my own 6-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd who is truly my best friend, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I treat every dog with the same love, care, and attention I would want for my own. What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, calm, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’m currently home in Michigan for the summer, which gives me a very flexible schedule and open availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats in their own home so they can stay in a familiar and stress-free environment. Whether your pet needs potty breaks throughout the day, feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to provide attentive and loving care. I understand how important routines are for pets, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, comfortable environment in every pet care situation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress and keep things familiar. I make sure pets are always supervised during visits, doors and gates are securely handled, and I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any specific care guidelines provided by the owner. I also respect each home by keeping it clean, organized, and exactly as I found it. For dogs, I ensure safe leash handling during walks, avoid unsafe interactions with unfamiliar animals, and always stay attentive to their behavior and needs. For cats, I create a calm environment by respecting their space and letting them come to me on their terms, while still providing affection, play, and care when they’re comfortable. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners by being reliable, detail-oriented, and attentive so you can feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have dogsat for friends and family since I was a kid, I worked at a doggy daycare (Paws In The City) in highschool. My family has raised 2 litters of golden retrievers, so I am familiar with how to train and housebreak puppies from a young age. I live with 2 dogs and 3 cats, all with very different energy levels and personalities, I will adjust to your pet's unique needs and routines! I am a student at CMU, so during the semester I will be gone during the morning for classes. I stop by to check on pets during lunch time, and then head back to campus. On weekends I can stay with them the whole day, taking dogs on a hike if the weather is nice, or staying in and playing on my study breaks. I have a pretty open schedule, so I will have a lot of time to spare for pet care. I am willing to stay with your pets overnight if you need, or just stop by regularly throughout the day. I will follow your instructions, and make sure your pets stay fed, safe, and happy while you are gone! I have a lot of hiking trails I want to explore, if you are comfortable with me taking your pup on a fieldtrip. If not, I am happy to walk in your neighborhood and stay closer to home.

About: I adore dogs and exercise. I will take dogs out on long and enjoyable walks and give them another reason to love life!! I’ll give so much attention and exercise care to your dogs! I am working a full time job from home. I am free to walk dogs in the evenings after work, weekends, and maybe walks on my lunch breaks during the middle of the day. I have a small little 2 year old dog at home that has taught me the love and attention necessary to raise a happy dog and how to show them lots of love. I have had many dogs as I grew up as well so I know how to take care of a dog that I didn’t have a direct hand in training. I love all dogs and want them to non stop tail wag their way through life.

About: Ever since I was a little kid I’ve grown up with pets, whether it was 7 cats and zero dogs or 2 cats and three dogs, there was never a time in my life where my family didn’t own a pet. Animals are everything to me and if I can spend time hanging out with more animals and taking care of them on a daily basis then I want to take advantage of all of that joy. I will do anything from bathing and feeding your pets, to playing with them as long as they would like. If you need a good happy go lucky pet sitter then I am your girl! :) Hi! My boyfriend and I are currently looking for some extra ways to make some more Money for our trip while doing things we love. We absolutely adore animals and taking care of them, as we have three dogs at our house and two cats. Everyone cares for their pets differently so with that being said, you say it and we will follow. We have a fenced in yard here with 3 very lovable dogs and 2 cats, as well as a basement, so if needed we could separate the animals, as well as crates too.

Kumar was absolutely wonderful with my two cats! I was especially nervous about leaving because one of them, Relic, is a formerly feral girl who’s very shy with new people. (Beezle, my other cat, is a social butterfly—toss him a treat and he’s instantly your best friend.) But Kumar handled Relic’s quirks with so much patience and care. He came by twice a day, sent me photos and videos every visit, and never hesitated to check in if he had questions. His communication was fantastic, and he totally put my mind at ease. If I need a sitter again, I’ll be crossing my fingers that Kumar’s available—he did an amazing job, and I’m so grateful!

Isaac did really well on our first in-home visit with our German Shepherd, Luna. For a dog that has massive separation anxiety, she was very calm when we got home. I think having Isaac come to the house to let her out and feed her, instead of taking her somewhere to be taken care of, made a big difference. I would not hesitate to ask Isaac to take care of Luna again.

About: I'm a credentialed Veterinary Technician who is capable of handling all dogs- big or small, as well as all temperaments. Special needs dogs are my forte (diabetics, seniors, etc) and hold a special place in my heart. I just finished my associates in veterinary technology. I'm currently working that field but I have a bit of space to be flexible. I'm also open to sitting other animals including exotics like birds, Chinchillas and Sugar Gliders, I've had them before! I have two dogs of my own, one Miniature Schnauzers, one Akita mix and two cats. I've been taking care of animals since I could walk! Now I have a career continuing it and I love it! Feel free to ask me anything! I don't currently do in home petsitting or day boarding unless you're a consistent client- certain arrangements can be made. This can be canines or felines. I am blessed to work from home so I’m able to house sit without restrictions as long as there’s working internet. I am able to be flexible and work with schedules as needed, whether short term or long term. I like to keep routines fairly similar as when pet parents are home with their pets, so they don’t get too stressed. If that’s going on a 4 mile hike everyday or simply taking an hour to sit on the couch and give belly rubs, I’m their gal.

I can’t speak highly enough of Rebecca! The care and attention shows in her communication and energy she gave to our two large dogs. We have a high energy young lab and a senior German Shepard and she handled both of their needs without hesitation. She understood their personalities and captured them perfectly in the photos we received!! Our first time booking and I felt so comfortable being away I hardly looked at my phone. I knew our boys were in great hands. I couldn’t recommend enough and will be booking again!!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Mecosta

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Mecosta on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 172 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mecosta. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Mecosta 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 Mecosta. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.
