About: I have had a fur baby in my life since I was young, having a dog and/or cat completes my family. I am very loving and attentive. Having a fully fenced in yard with room to run will allow your baby to have fun, get excercise, and have independence. I am always up for a nice bath to calm, soothe, or just clean your baby if needed. I promise to take great care of your fur baby! I also have experience with breathing issues, special food requirements, and climate control. I also have experience with goats and macaws. I am the owner of a small business so I have plenty of time on my hands since I have started working from home. I am available 24/7, just let me know when you need a sitter and we can work out a schedule for your needs. The only items you need to bring: collar, leash, and food. You can bring special toy or blanket too if you would like. I have a small Boston terrier named Bella that just loves everybody, she has never been aggressive or bit anyone. I have a crazy, silly cat named Benny that is very shy but mostly likes girl dogs. Bella plays inside and out, but Bennie is purely an indoor girl.
About: I currently sit on a board of directors and volunteer with my boyfriend at a local animal rescue. I have experience giving pets medication and taking care of pets with special needs (one of my pets is special needs!). I currently work Saturday-Tuesday remotely and a flexible, in person schedule Wed-Friday. My schedule is designed for flexibility, so I can easily meet the needs of you and your fur baby! I have over 15 years experience caring for dogs and over 7 caring for cats. I treat others’ pets as if they were my home. I am available 24/7 and love to message photos and videos to the pet owner. If I have questions or concerns, I will always reach out to you!
About: I have taken care of dogs for about 4 years now, owning my own dog for 8 years now. Nothing brings me more joy. I have worked at a dog daycare for 3 years now, where I take care of daycare dogs, boarding dogs, and where I feed, bathe, groom, correct, and train dogs of all ages and sizes. I am very comfortable going on walks with and handling any breed and size dog. I am able to help out in the afternoons are early mornings during the weekdays, and whenever needed on the weekends. Whenever needed, I can always help. I care for your pets exactly how I would if they were my own. Every pet deserves the love of everyone they’re around, and whatever rules and regulations you have will be enforced with me!

“Michelle gave me peace of mind by checking in on my cats and sending pictures each day while I was out of town. So glad she was able to help despite it being a holiday, and a bit of a drive for her. She was always available over text and always so nice. Thank you Michelle!”
About: I've had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. My first word, when I was a baby, was "dog." While I have more experience taking care of & training dogs, I currently have two cats of my own (Heidi & Cinder). I've taken care of both puppies and senior dogs, but love animals of all breeds, ages, and sizes. I'm very physically active, so if your pets love to walk, run, & explore, I'm the gal for you! I go to college full time, but have ample time during the day & evening to take care of animals. My schedule is fairly flexible, so I can work without whatever times work best for you & your pets. Since I have 2 cats, I'm willing to go to your home to watch, walk, and take care of your pets. I'm able to drive anywhere in the tri-cities area.
About: I’ve had pets since the day that I can remember. When I moved out I moved in with my roommate, whose dog was my best friend. My schedule revolves around my boy Rosco. He is my baby. Rosco comes first, and then everything else your pet will be just as much my priority My day starts off with making sure our babies are fed and let out for the morning. Sometimes I will go for a walk or I will hook them up to his runner and play some fetch or tug-of-war.
“Brittany went above and beyond! Came by ahead of time to meet me and my boys, super kind in explaining how the whole process works, stopped by each day and even spent some extra time when one of my cats was hiding super well. She reached out when Boba was hiding so we could find him and played with Jango loads. Overall great experience and both of my boys are happy as ever!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I’ve been 14 years old. I’ve had experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I have a passion for animals and love to make them feel part of my family. I’m currently in respiratory school while working a part-time job, which has helped me develop strong responsibility and time-management skills. I’ve always loved animals and enjoy caring for them whenever I can. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I accept cats and dogs that are able to stay in the comfort of their own homes. I feel like as someone with animals the safest place an animals can feel is when they’re in the comfort of their own homes.
“Skyler was great. She came to meet my dog ahead of time and sent updates and photos during the visit. He ended up being too nervous but she stuck it out trying to get him to warm up and come out. I really appreciated her effort.”
About: I have 4 years experience working with dogs in a shelter/boarding setting, as well as 10 years experience as a pet sitter. My experiences include walking, bathing, administering medications, playtime/enrichment. I have experience with puppies aged 8 weeks, all the way to senior dogs. I also have experience with dogs that are reactive to other dogs, have behavioral problems, allergies/dietary needs. I work roughly 30-37 hours a week, 7 hour days. I'm typically home from work around 3pm and can provide pet care from 4pm-10pm most days. For my own pets (I have 11 cats), I care for their basic needs as anyone would. Feeding/watering, cleaning litter boxes daily, playtime, administering any medications they may need, etc. For your pets, I would give the same care as I would my own, with respect to any recommendations or preferences you have.
About: I enjoy animals so much, and dogs are one of my very favorites. Having owned dogs and worked with animals for several years, I feel I am qualified to care for most any pooch. Right now, I am a dog mom to my Blackmouth Cur pup, Wall-e. He’ll be turning nine this year, and he truly is the light of my days. I also have my rescue kitten, Freyja, who’s about three years old already! I am currently a veterinary technician at local animal hospital, but that’s just not enough for me; furry friends are really my life. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, having focused my time in college on zoology and ecology. My goal is to one day own a rescue with my fiancé to really make a difference and a positive impact in as many animals lives as I can. Right now I am working full time, but I work 12 hour shifts, leaving me more days off than on with a set schedule. Also leaving me plenty of time to care for your beautiful fur baby! Since I’ll be taking care of your pet in your home, I will do so with the utmost respect. Following your pets specific schedule all while making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and happy is always my top priority.
About: I am a current pre vet student and kennel assistant at a private practice with experience that is growing everyday. Open to learning/ acclimating to any circumstances I’m currently working part time but it’s also summer so my availability is very open and flexible to suit you and the pets wants and needs I prioritize safety and security so full yard and safety essentials and equipment that is best suited to take care of your loved pet will be great :)

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

- 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.
