Madyson was able to come over on a very short notice to feed Benni dinner and take him out for a potty break. I would definitely hire her again.

About: I have had a family dog since I have been 5 years old. We have had two dogs starting at a puppy age. I have walked dogs starting at a puppy age to senior age. I am able to give the dog a short up to a longer walk. My current living situation has a cat in the house. I provide care for the kitten when its owner is gone for the week. I am able to clean the litter box, give water/food and play with the cat. I just finished up my first year of teaching ending early June. I am now available after 12 pm on the weekdays and most weekends (any time range). My job is to take care of your furry friends and your home. I plan to be explicit when I am able to give your pet care and I will make sure your house is secure before leaving the house. I am there to be providing a service to your animal and making sure it gets the care it deserves and needed.

Melissa is amazing! My kitten had been through a blood transfusion and needed to have liquid medication given twice a day. Melissa was eager and willing to help! Melissa ensured that my kitten was well cared for when my husband and I were out of town and she kept me well updated on everything and sent me some pictures to help with my anxiousness about leaving. We even found out that we would be getting home later and she was flexible and willing to come one more time to visit Henry in order to make sure he could get his medication before we arrived home. I would highly recommend choosing Melissa to watch over and care for your pet, I am very thankful for her!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. I have had two dogs growing up, a miniature schnauzer and a beagle. I have paid close attention to their every need, cared for them, played with them and of course made them feel loved. I have watched my neighbors dog while they were oh vacation. I have also taken care of my friends dogs. I am a dog mom and a lover of dogs who has a lot of experience taking care of them. I love it! I am currently working part time so I will have a lot of free time to care for, play with and walk dogs. They will have my attention and focus. I have a beagle who is one. There is space for them to play together and I live 2 minutes from a huge dog park where they can let out their energy and have even more space to run free. If you like your dog separated I can have mine in her gated area :)

About: I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. My dad used to help help run a rescue for several years, and we had many dogs of varying breeds and ages in our home. I currently have one dog named Alvin who was born in 2022. He is a yellow lab with a lot of energy! I am venturing into the working world, and this is my only role. My availability is wide open and I'm willing to help when needed! I have a small fenced in area under our deck where my dog relieves himself. I go for walks and there is a dog park very close to the house. My dog has extreme crate anxiety, so he isn't created. I am comfortable helping to ensure your pet is created as necessary.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life! Experienced all ages and kinds. I’m also experienced in cat care as well as kittens. I’ve raised livestock since age 10! I relish human connections, but I have a deep passion for connecting with animals. I am highly adaptable when it comes to caring for your furry companion. I have a cat who needs his own space. I live in a large house with multiple levels and rooms, and I’m more than willing to make adjustments to accommodate him. My cat takes medication daily, and I’m knowledgeable about animal behavior.

Savannah was an amazing solution to my fairly last minute request to feed, walk and play with my pup. She was extremely professional and clearly great with dogs. She gave us updates via text and sent multiple pictures of our pup to let us know everything was okay. I would definitely recommend her services and will book her again the next time I need dog sitting services!

About: Hello! My name is Heidi. I own a house in the Vine neighborhood, have a fully fenced backyard and live just three blocks from Bronson hospital. I am a teacher during the school year and I enjoy doing dog sitting with my two kids on the weekends and all summer long. Dogs must be kid-friendly. We prefer dogs under 50 pounds but will accept a gentle giant. Im a teacher. So, I’m off all summer with my kids. We work together to care for dogs in order to save up money for something special. No need for a dog park. We have a fenced yard! Hi Dogs spend active time in our fenced backyard as well as quiet time resting with us inside the house. We have so much fun!

About: Hi! I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for about 7 years now, so I’m very comfortable with all kinds of pups—different sizes, ages, and personalities. I also have a 6-year-old dog of my own who I’ve raised since he was just 8 weeks old, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your dog. I treat every dog like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. Whether your pup loves walks, cuddles, or just hanging out, I’m happy to match their routine and keep them comfortable and happy. I’ll also keep you updated so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands! I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day, including weekends. Whether you need early morning visits, midday check-ins, or evening care, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they get the attention and care they need! I primarily care for pets in my client’s home so they can stay comfortable in their own space and stick to their normal routine. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs or medications. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. I also respect your home and keep everything just as you left it. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away!

Gabby is a fantastic sitter, my boy Deke is always shy when he meets new people but immediately took to Gabby which goes to show how amazing she is with animals. She has timely communication and gives my deke all the love and play during her visit! It’s such a weight off my shoulders knowing Gabby is stopping in to spend time with him!

About: I have had four dogs while growing up and of course, each one was so different. Throughout my 20+ years of living with animals, I have learned the ins and outs that come with them. I am a high energy and loving provider who has the patience and kindness to wait for your furry family member to get to know me. I love to hike, climb, run trails, swim and bask in the sun. Basically, I am your dogs next best friend while you're away. My motto in life is to help others and if I can alleviate some stress or worries in your world, it would be my pleasure to help. I love every type of dogs; large, medium, small - we will have fun no matter what!

About: I've grown up my entire life surrounded by pets. I absolutely love animals, dogs and cats especially. I've spent the last year looking after the pets of fellow family and friends and worked my way up to watching for fellow residents in my city and cities nearby. I'm a full-time employee in a K-12 public school and a part-time student at Wayne State University. My college schedule is flexible, and I still have plenty of time during the day to help. Back home I would feed and water my pets every morning, take them for a walk if the weather was nice, and play games such as fetch. For my clients I will do have your pets fed at the desired time you prefer. I spend time playing with them, giving them the attention they deserve, and a walk.

Izabella was so great with coco. I had a last minute request when her longtime caregiver could no longer care for her. I had set up care through another person on rover and they cancelled which left me just two days to find someone. Izabella sent me her work hours so I could coordinate drop ins and walks to work with cocos schedule. She came the next day for a meet and greet. While I was away she gave great photos and updates. She even offered to take out the trash and put some salt down. She offered an additional check in if needed the day we were coming back which was wonderful since our plane got delayed. Would definitely recommend her!

You could tell how much Lexie truly cared for our dog and I was so pleased to leave our dogs care in her hands. I loved all the report cards and pictures as well! We will definitely be rebooking with Lexie in the future when needed.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Parchment

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Parchment on Rover is $19.43 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 Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 729 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Parchment. 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 Parchment 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 Parchment 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 .

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.

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 Parchment with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Parchment. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
