“Tricia did a wonderful job taking care of our cats while we were away. She really took the time to get to know them, which meant a lot to us. She was dependable, attentive and sent regular updates and photos so we always knew how they were doing. It gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were gone and we would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!”
“Rachel was so great! She really loves cats, and when she walked in to meet our cats even the shy one came right out to get to know her! She spent quality time with our kitties while we were out of town and sent pics at each visit. I highly recommend her!”
“Theresa was great! She came in in a clutch when I needed a sitter on a short notice for a couple days over the weekend. She kept me updated daily on the foods and litter situation, and also took pics of my cats with her best effort despite my cats being shy 🙈”
“Emily took care of our two rescue cats for a long weekend. She took pictures at every visit and kept their food fresh and boxes scooped. Would definitely hire Emily again!”
“Jennifer came to our condo for 6 days to check in our cat Raven while we went on vacation and she did an unbelievable job! She fed her and gave her water, emptied and cleaned her kitty litter, brushed and petted her and even hung out with her for awhile every day! And as always, she sent us an update and a picture of Raven daily. I would definitely recommend Jennifer to watch your pet! I would book her again in an instant! Mary M”
“Arden took great care of my two cats while I was away. She gave them lots of love and attention and made me feel at ease, leaving them for the first time. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care our baby bunny received over Christmas! Lauren was incredibly attentive, caring, and exuded trustworthiness. It's clear she genuinely cares for fur babies, making our time away stress-free. Highly recommend her services!”
“Celia was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of our two kitties, paying close attention to their individual needs and spending quality time playing with them. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and even kindly took care of our plants. I would recommend Celia without the slightest hesitation. And of course, after such a flawlessly executed first experience, I will definitely hire her again for future pet-sitting assignments.”
About: My family has done dog sitting and dog walking jobs for the past 5 years, I have stepped up when my parents have been unavailable to take care of others dogs and cats. This includes walking, playing, overnight stays, administering simple medicines in food, and cleaning up their messes of all kinds. I have owned family dogs since I was born and have been contributing to their care since I was 10. I currently work 2 part-time jobs as a lifeguard, with shifts being anywhere from 2-6 hours long. I work both in Northville and Ann Arbor and I’m happy to dogsit in either location! I understand the potential dangers of common things in homes for animals, such as poisons and injuries. I make effort to avoid any potential hazards, and keep your pets safe and happy!
“Haomin was very kind and helpful in getting the cat sitting service scheduled. We left our shy cat for a week to go on a family vacation and she understood our cats personality and worked with her to make the separation easier. We received daily pictures and updates and our cat looked happy and healthy, which brought a great peace of mind. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to others. Thank you Haomin for taking such great care of Via.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm, and at one point we had 12 indoor dogs, from tiny Yorkies to Great Danes. They were never “just pets” to us; they were family, and that’s how I’ve always believed animals should be treated. I’ve also cared for cats and have experience dog sitting, so I’m comfortable looking after pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for yours the same way I’d care for my own. I take classes two days a week and spend the rest of my time at home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention and care. I'm also available most weekends, making it easy to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for by following their usual routine as closely as possible. I'll follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions provided by the owner and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I don't have any pets of my own at the moment, so I truly enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the love and companionship they deserve. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Sharon watched my cat. My cat usually hides from people came right over to Sharon. He really loved her. She did such a great job playing with him and visiting him. He was well taken care of. I completely recommend her and I will be using her whenever I go on vacation.”
“Bethany wasn't in the house more than five minutes before my cat Karma was trying to crawl in her lap! I could tell how much she loves cats and that she would take great care of mine. And she did! Would highly recommend!”
“Sarah was punctual and very reliable. She provided detailed daily updates on litter cleaning, feeding, and playtime, along with plenty of photos and videos. My cat can be a bit shy, but Sarah was patient and clearly comfortable caring for her. Communication was excellent throughout the five days I was away. I would definitely book her again!”
“Andrew has done and excellent job watching my cat. His responses were quick and timely, he came on time to feed my cat and cleaned litter each visit. Overall I felt like my cat is in good hands while I was away from home. Thanks so much!”
About: What sets me apart is my patience and genuine love for animals. I cared for my own senior cat for 6 years, so I understand the extra attention older pets need, from gentle handling and consistent routines to noticing small changes in how they're eating, moving, or acting. I'm attentive, reliable, and treat every pet like my own. With my flexible schedule, I'm available evenings and weekends, and I'll send updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. With a flexible work schedule, I'm mainly available evenings and weekends, perfect for after-work walks, dinner-time feedings, and weekend drop-ins. I'm happy to work around your pet's routine. I always make sure every animal I encounter feels loved and is getting the best care possible. Whether it’s going for a longer walk or spending some extra time to cuddle I will always go out of my way to treat your pet like one of my own.
“Jessica was amazing, responded straight away and was very responsible, she took great care of Gizmo and went above and beyond of what was asked, I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica, so glad I found you 😁 Mandy B”
“As always, Heather is reliable and wonderful. We travel many weekends for kids' activities, but we never worry about our pets because we know we can count on her to take excellent care of them!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Northville
Chloe was great! She was communicative, send such sweet photos that showed my cats clearly loved her and took care of my cats really well. She even warned me when she was worried my cat was getting sick before I returned, which I really appreciate. I would absolutely contact her again.
Kelsey did a wonderful job dropping in on our senior cat while we were away. She gave our cat the attention and love she needed and it was clear Kelsey genuinely cared for her. Kelsey shared lots of photos and updates to make sure we could relax on vacation knowing our cat was safe and comfortable. I highly recommend Kelsey for your Rover needs!
Darío and Vanessa are absolutely amazing! Matilda loves them, and we couldn’t ask for better pet sitters. They always keep us updated on how she’s doing, send us lots of photos, and make sure we know she’s happy and well cared for. Their communication gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. We truly appreciate everything they do, and we will definitely continue trusting them to care for Matilda whenever we travel. Highly recommended!
I had a great experience with Stephanie. This was my first time leaving my cat alone for several days, and I was understandably nervous, but she did an excellent job and quickly put me at ease. She was reliable, communicative, and very attentive to Bagel’s needs. She made sure he was eating, drinking, and using the litter normally, and she took the time to observe his behavior rather than forcing interaction. Bagel is a cautious cat, but he became more comfortable over the course of the visits. I really appreciated the updates and knowing that Bagel was calm, safe, and well cared for in his own home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and would highly recommend her, especially for shy or sensitive pets.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
