“Had a wonderful experience with Sophia! She graciously accepted to check in on our 3 cats on short notice and did so great! She was reliable, followed our instructions and gave us peace of mind while away from our babies. Would definitely book again in the future.”
“Hannah goes above and beyond to make sure our pups are all taken care of. Absolutely love booking with her and always feel certain our pups are in the best hands. She is awesome. Love the report cards and attention to detail. Thank you Hannah!!!”
“Makae was a lifesaver when she was able to take care of my dog last minute. I was nervous because I hadn't used Rover before but she made me feel at ease by sending daily texts and photos of my happy pup. She's such a calm and positive presence and I will definitely trust her to take care of Maya again!”
“We have had Ana come and watch our boy a couple of times and as usual she is fabulous. She has great communication and cares for our pup as if he was her own. I don’t worry when she is taking care of him because she provides well written reports and tons of pictures and videos, it really helps our kids miss him less. Thank you Ana for taking such great care of Francis! We will definitely be booking again.”
“This was my First time using rover and Claire was awesome! She arrived at the scheduled time, sent plenty of pictures, and treated my pups well! Will definitely look for her when I book again!”
About: With 12+ years in veterinary medicine, I bring a little more than belly rubs and a pocket full of treats to the job. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities—from wild puppies to sweet seniors and pets with medical or special needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior or health, and following detailed care routines. I’ve also spent years helping rescue and rehabilitate animals, so I’m patient with nervous, anxious, or quirky pups who may need a little extra time to trust someone new. Most importantly, I’ll care for your dog like I would my own—with plenty of attention, ridiculous conversations, and probably way too many pictures sent to you. Pet care has been part of my everyday life for over a decade, both professionally and personally. My schedule is currently flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, medications, and keeping your pet’s normal routine intact. I’m an early riser, active, and very used to planning my day around animals—because apparently they’ve been running my schedule for years anyway. With 12+ years of veterinary medicine experience, safety is always my priority. I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior or health, administering medications, caring for senior and special-needs pets, and following detailed care instructions. In your home, I respect your pet’s normal routine and environment and take the time to earn their trust rather than forcing interaction. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, because I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful—even when your pet is completely unbothered by your absence. 😂
About: I am my friends’ go-to pet sitter. I love animals! I have taken care of several dogs and cats over the years. I am currently fostering cats now because I love them so much! My typical/ current availability: I am currently working part-time M-Th afternoons, so I am available in the mornings, late evenings, and on the weekends! I will follow the instructions for taking care of your fur baby carefully and will make sure they are loved and safe while you are away!
“Amanda did an awesome job. We had a last minute booking and she even went out of her way to do a meet and greet the day of the booking. The updates were great and she even spent some extra time playing with our dogs. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you Amanda!”
About: Hello all! I’m Jessica, 31 and I am excited to meet you and your pets! I joined Rover back in 2019, I have been so overwhelmed with joy being able to bond with clients I’ve had and I’m always looking to add to my amazing circle! I’ve traveled and have done rover in many states and it’s been too fun to stop! Being a pup owner myself, my first baby, Blu (Booboos) she was a laid back couch loving pit-bull mix who is now 11 years old, my old lady as I called her. I have had a small lifestyle change the past year as I had a child of my own, but being a stay at home mother I enjoyed the quality time I had with my pup and the importance of how it had been hard on her in those early stages with my hands tied to a newborn . Sadly, she has recently passed over the rainbow bridge back in March of this year (2026) and there’s been a hole in my heart. Luckily, I had been so privileged to give my pup the most attention, whether it had been her being at home, playing in the back yard, running errands with me , or a simple walk around the block; thinking of her is what made me interested in giving other fur babies the fun time, attention and care they need (it doubles as a little out of home therapy for me!) I have prior experience in dog care working for an animal hospital 3 years in addition to caring for my own, so quality care is primary and I would love to give that extra love and quality time to your future babies! Making time that works well for you and your pup is a priority to me! Let’s chat on how we can make it happen! :) I am open to care routine of your choice! What you prefer and like to keep same routine I am with it! If you’d like to switch it up I’m all for it! No matter what I am attentive to send you updates every step of the way ! I am currently a stay at home mom, I have the flexibility to work with an owners requests to ensure they get the satisfaction of leaving their fur babies in my care. Going over the best plan of care with you about your fur baby is priority! I’ve had some of my clients print out itineraries for me if had multiple pets or just because it’s nice to have something structured to go off of! I am flexible with what will make you and your fur baby comfortable!

While working for a pet sitting company, I gained hands-on experience providing dependable, personalized care for each dog. I’m currently working full-time shift work schedule. My availability is constantly rotating each week. I would love the opportunity to take care of your pets. I would love the opportunity to take care of your pets in your home. I feel that most pets are more comfortable at home. I can’t wait
“I can always count on Destiny to check in on my dogs and take good care of them. She always communicates with me and keeps me posted on how they’re doing. I’ve booked her many times and will continue doing so!”
“We had a wonderful experience! She took great care of our dogs and kept us updated while we were away. It was clear that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She even brought our packages inside, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. We would definitely recommend her and will happily book with her again!”
“Brittnay is awesome! So kind and has amazing communication. She checked in with me everyday and sent pics. Definitely recommend her for watching your fur babies!!”

I have two kitty’s and one puppy. My cats are about 2 years old and my Dog is 6 months old. So everyday is a new challenge for me but nothing to difficult that I can overcome!

I had a wonderful experience having Riley watch my 2 dogs and cat. She really went above and beyond making sure they were comfortable and had plenty of playtime. Communication was also great and she took lots of awesome pictures of them having fun. Would absolutely book with Riley again!
Iremar is an amazing dog sitter to Oreo and Bailey. She truly treated them with so much respect, love, and as if they were her own. She constantly keeps in communication with photos and text messages one thing I truly appreciate it sincerely. If you are looking for a reliable dog sitter I highly recommend Iremar to be you pick. I can’t wait to book her services again.
This is the third time Amye has done drop in visits for us and just as expected, everything went perfectly!! We really appreciate her giving us the peace of mind that our babies are well taken care of while we are out of town. Her communication is top-notch!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Saginaw is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 6,693 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saginaw. 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 .
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 , 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:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
