About: I have had dogs/cats since a child. Anyone who knows me will tell you I am a a sucker for animals lol. I treat all pets as if they were my own. I currently go to school 2 days out of the week but they are night classes Monday and Tue at 6pm to 10:30. So availability is pretty open. Your pet will get some good snuggles 😂🤗 anywhere I go your pet will go with me (assuming they’re able to travel) I go for walks just about every morning.
“Amelia took wonderful care of my dog Bailey! I’ll definitely try to book time with Amelia again. She provided detailed updates and photos which were reassuring to receive. This is the first time I’ve had someone take care of my dog and Bailey enjoyed her time spent with Amelia.”
“Jen was excellent!! The dogs loved her. She was great and I had peace of mind while I was out of town. She has a love and compassion for pets. She understood they are my babies and she did a wonderful job caring for them. She was more then willing to help and went above and beyond. I liked her character and trusted her to come in and out of our home. She has a beautiful spirit, fun and caring.💕 If you're looking for someone to care for your pet Jen is your girl!! 😇”
“Shannon has been great with our puppy. She treats her like her own and has been very reliable. She is flexible with our schedule too which is a godsend. Cannot recommend enough!”
“Jayce was awesome. She was always on time and did everything I asked her to. Pucca trusted her so I did too. I liked that she sent me pictures of Pucca and always be in contact. Wouldn't hesitate to book her again”
About: I’ve pet sat for friends and family for pretty much my whole life! I have multiple pets of my own (cats and dogs), and they mean everything to me. I always make sure my babies are healthy and well cared for, and I will do the same for yours! I like to be active and play with animals, but I also love just chilling and spending time with them as well. I usually work 6-8 hour shifts at my full time job, which leaves me plenty of time to spend with your pets! I’m available most mornings/afternoons as well as every Saturday -Monday! I am very respectful of others homes, and every home is different. Let me know what works best for you and your pets, and I will always accommodate based on your preferences!
“My dog, Maggie, and I had a great meet and greet with Ryan. Ryan is caring, positive, and reliable. He arrived early and on time for the visit. I really appreciate the photos and updates. I look forward to his continued care for Maggie while I am away.”
About: Owned and taken care of dogs for 10 years, working with breeds that have special issues. Own a dog, cat, and 4 fish! Lots of training for all of my animals as well! Currently I work 5am-2pm on most days so I am available for 2/3 visits afterwards and occasionally an overnight stay. I have my own dog who gets out 4ish times a day and has a daily long walk with playtime in the dog park! I currently live in an apartment which offers a dog park, I am able to accommodate to what your pet needs. Longer walks for exercise I can do but if they just need a buddy to stop in and check on them I am open to that as well! I am respectful in housing and try and go above and beyond when possible.
About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. We've always had at least one dog in our household and also currently live with a cat. I have also walked other dogs and have taken care of dogs here on my own. I currently am unemployed and am not yet in school so my schedule is completely open. The only issue that I might have for these next few months would be an issue with scheduling with the rest of my household. I have experience handling large and small dogs and do not get worried if the dog gets worked up. I am very aware of how empathetic dogs are and can remain calm. I also can keep to a schedule and give pets the love and care they need and deserve.
“Laura is always the best! She’s takes amazing care of our mischievous girl. She takes care of everything and I’m always comfortable leaving our old girl in her hands! I get her everytime we leave town”
“Maryssa is fantastic with my dogs, Turbo and Daisy! She’s reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. She even checks on my horses while she’s there, which means a lot to me. It’s such a relief knowing all my animals are in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“This was Olivia’s first time watching our cats and she was seriously outstanding. She really went above and beyond, overcoming some inconveniences to provide excellent care. I highly recommend.”
About: I've had dogs in my life since the tender age of 5. I'm comfortable around most breeds, and expect good manners out of all my charges. I love to load up the van and take the dogs out to the different parks and dog parks. I firmly believe in one on one time with your precious pet as well as socializing them to new and different experiences. I also have experience with birds, fish, cats and horses. I love working with all manners of animals! Right now my schedule is completely open to book. I am applying for other jobs in the area, so my availability may change, but loyal customers get first dibs on my time. I have two cats that tolerate dogs. My house is set up, so the cats can have their own sanctuary if the doggy guest would prefer it that way. We have a large yard to play in, and I enjoy taking the dogs for a walk in the park or there is a nearby field of 70+acres where they can run and play some ultimate fetch. I also have a roommate that would spoil any pet.
“Shannon is absolutely incredible. My blind, diabetic, 13.5 year old pup has a hard time feeling comfortable with others but with her, it seemed almost instant. I felt so comfortable knowing Gizmo was in great hands. She proactively updated me throughout the evening, letting me know how he was doing which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my night out.”
“Lucilla was great! This was my first time using Rover and it did not disappoint. I had set up 30min drop-in visits and Lucilla was wonderful at sending updates and photos whenever she came to check in on Sampson. I would definitely suggested reaching out to her to take care of your furry family members.”
“Lynda was extremely helpful and took great care of my kitty while I was gone! My flight even got cancelled on my way home and she stopped by a couple extra times when my schedule changed!”
About: I am excited to watch your fur friend. I have 2 Chihuahuas named Kahlo and Biscotti. They bark, but are sweet and love to play with other dogs. I work full time from home, so your pet will get loads of attention. I go for walks 2 to 3 times a day. I also have a gated area in my yard for small to medium dogs to roam freely. I have cared for many pets before. As a kid, I had everything from dogs, to chinchillas, turtles, and fish. I have experience with older dogs and puppies. Just let me know the specifics of your routine, and I will honor it with your pup. I like to get up and move arround at the bottom of each hour so honoring your specific regimen will be no problem. I work from home during the week. I am very dependable. I have cleaned houses for extra cash for 7 years and have been trusted in many homes. My pups get plenty of attention, play time, timely meals, and so will yours!
“We love Maria! She is very flexible and anyone who can handle my two little gremlins is a superhero! We have her come over a few days weekly due to our crazy work schedule and will continue to do so! Saves us so much trouble and the pups are so grateful! ?”

Michelle took wonderful care of our cats while we were away on a cruise.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Saginaw 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 361 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saginaw. 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 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.
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 Saginaw. On Rover:
- 97% 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.
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.
