About: Hi! I’m a longtime pet sitter with 10+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters and genuinely love getting to know animals of all personalities—from energetic pups to shy cats and senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I especially enjoy in-home pet and house sitting because I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment where they can stick to their routine and feel safe and relaxed. My goal is always to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I’ll treat your pets like family, give them lots of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you always know they’re happy and cared for. I currently work full-time during the week but make pet care a priority in my routine. I’m available for mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I’m happy to work around feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and routines to make sure your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away. With over 10 years of pet sitting experience and volunteer experience at animal shelters, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, temperament, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll always treat your pets like my own and respect your home while keeping you updated for peace of mind.
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for years and currently have dogs of my own, so I know just how much they become part of the family. I have experience with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and personalities from energetic pups who are always ready for their next adventure to senior dogs who need a little more patience and a slower pace. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, potty breaks, crate routines, playtime, basic medications, and giving your dog plenty of attention and affection. I also understand that some dogs can be nervous or anxious when their people are away, so I’m happy to take the time to let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. I’ll always do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine and any instructions you leave. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates along the way, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pup is happy, safe, and being well cared for while you’re away! 🐶🐾 I work full time in the Cadillac area Monday through Friday, so weekday pet care is planned around my work schedule. I’m generally available before and after work during the week, with much more flexibility in the evenings and on weekends. For house sitting bookings, I stay overnight in your home with your pets so they can remain comfortable in their own environment and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. On workdays, I’ll be away during my normal working hours but will be there before and after work and overnight. Depending on your location and my workday, I may also be able to stop in during the day. I’m always upfront about my schedule before accepting a booking and only take stays that are a good fit for both my availability and your pet’s needs. I’m happy to go over your pet’s normal routine ahead of time so we can make sure the schedule works well for everyone. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and leave your pets in their care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you leave as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, and household rules. I’m mindful about keeping doors, gates, leashes, and other areas secure and will never put your pet in an unfamiliar or potentially unsafe situation without your permission. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. While you’re away, I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. If I ever have a question or notice something out of the ordinary, I’ll always communicate with you rather than assume. 🐾
“If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would! She was incredibly reliable even during HORRIBLE weather on Christmas day, and she even left my cats a gift! She went above and beyond for them and I am very glad I chose her.”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and have helped with whelping, shots, to finding them new homes. I have trained dogs also! I will always treat them as my own and they will be well socialized. I am currently working full time at a family owned business. I am free from Friday-Sunday every weekend. I can take smaller dog with me to work (30#) or less. I have 30 wooded acres in the country. I have a large yard, not fenced but have a wireless collar system if I need to use it. I have a 4 year old chocolate lab neutered male, he is very playful and loves other dogs. I have 3 kids ages 10,7,2. Who I have taught to respect all animals and know the responsibility of taken care of them. I am willing to meet to pick up and drop off also.
“Julia did a fantastic job of caring for my two pups. She was great at communicating and giving updates. My one pup is very nervous around new people and Julia did a wonderful job of gaining my pups trust and getting some tail wags. I highly recommend Julia.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12 for family and friends. I’ve been around dogs my entire life within my home and others! I am super reliable and a great communicator! I am currently going to College at Ferris state and I am looking to hang out with some furry friends as I am missing mine at home. I am happy to play ball and have so much fun with your dogs. I am comfortable giving medication and feeding pups! I am in a dorm and can not take dogs to my home, but I am happy to come to you.
About: Hi! My name is Delayna, I’m 26 y/o and love love love animals! From dogs and cats big and small, I have had them all. I am no stranger in knowing how to properly care for a pet. For as long as I can remember, I have always been taking care of dogs and have been responsible for them. The smallest being a 5 lb Yorkie named Spike, who came to me as a puppy; the largest was a 90 lb Pitbull / Staffy mix named Thor, who I rescued from a humane society. No matter your dog’s breed, size, or age, I promise they will be in good hands. Leaving your dog isn’t just scary for them, but it can be scary for you too. You want someone you can trust. And you can trust that every second I am watching them, I will love them and care for them like they are my own. I am currently in between jobs, so I am available anytime to watch and care for your pets! All I ask is that you give me a couple days notice if you want my services. Please let me know of any instructions you have for me regarding caring for your pet. This includes a feeding and walking schedule, if they need to be crated, etc. Everyone has a different way they care for their pets. It’s important to stick to routines, as it can lessen the stress on the animals when their owner is not around. Not only this, but it is much safer for myself and the animals if I have all the information and know how they behave. Along with this, I’d love to have an open line of communication for any questions and or concerns. I strongly encourage a meet and greet beforehand as well, so the animals (and you) can get to know me and we make sure it’s a good fit!

“Highly recommend Marcus! Was reliable, very loving with our senior cat, and great communication, sharing detailed check-ins and photos as requested. Thoughtful and kind, Marcus will make sure whatever you and pet need are taken care of”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 70 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Reed City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
