“A very responsible and thoughtful pet sitter who took great care of our cat. She also kept us updated with daily notes and photos. She reallly eased my mind about taking a trip.”
About: Dogs are the best. I had a Boston growing up and he was the best. Having a dog taught me a lot. Let that’s experience be beneficial to you! I am currently unemployed so I am available most days. I can drop in mornings, evenings, and nights. I love going on walks so let me take your dog along with me. I treat animals with care and respect. I treat them like they are my own animals. I respect boundaries and want to make the animal feel comfortable
“Kareema is a very warm and welcoming young lady who was able to take my kitties on fairly short notice. She gave me updates and pictures of my happy kitties which helped my anxiety of having to leave them in someone else's care. My cats were happy and very well attended to under her care. When the time comes that I ever need to have my pets taken care of again, Kareema is my 1st choice. Thank you so much Kareema, Mr. Pickles, Chi-chi Michi, and we appreciate you 😊”
“Chris was super flexible- responded quickly and for a short notice sit at that! Furthermore, he was kind, personable, and professional upon meeting. He did amazing with our crazy, very big, very excitable dog. You can tell he stayed to spend time playing and giving our pup attention. Timely and communicative as well! We will be using him as our first line sitter from now on whenever possible!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for 10 years, including dogs, cats, and small pets. I’ve worked with pets of all ages and personalities, including those who need extra care or medication. I love getting to know each pet and learning what makes them comfortable, whether that means sticking to their usual routine or adjusting to their individual needs. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and attentive care to help your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands! I currently work part-time while saving for tuition, so I’m motivated to make the most of my flexible schedule and find arrangements that work for both you and your pets. My hours vary, which often allows me to accommodate busy schedules. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits most weekdays, with more availability for extended stays on weekends. I’m always happy to communicate and work together to find a schedule that best fits your pet’s needs! I have plenty of experience caring for pets in their own homes and am comfortable learning their routines, respecting their space, and helping them feel safe in their familiar environment. I take great care to follow each owner’s instructions and treat every home with respect. While I’m happy to provide drop-in visits and walks, my current living arrangements with my own pets don’t allow me to host pets or offer overnight stays at this time. My priority is making sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away!
About: I’ve been in the pet industry for 5 years! I started at a dog/cat boarding and daycare facility starting as regular employee and worked my way all the way up to management! I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes! I currently work nights, I’m available all morning to mid afternoon. My night job has a very flexible schedule so I can make exceptions every once in a while! I am very active, so long walks and play sessions are no issue for me! I can match your pets energy for the entirety of my visit with them to get all that extra energy out!
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over a decade now. Dogs and cats of family and friends. I have three years of experience in two different dog obedience training facilities. I understand some dogs need time to adjust and they need to have the space to come to you. I am a dog trainer and I work 5days a week. Most Tuesdays and Wednesdays I do work until 8pm but starting at 10:30am or 12pm. Thursdays are my long days 8:30am-6pm and Fridays I work 11am-7pm. I am comfortable if a dog needs to be crated at home. I understand some dogs need their walks within their day and am comfortable if a stool is a bit messy.
“Breanna was great! She was super responsive and sent lots of pictures / videos of my cat. I always get anxious leaving my pet, so I appreciate Breanna bearing with me and staying communicative! Would highly recommend.”
“Lauri is great with our cats and we are so happy to have her as our sitter. I always feel at ease leaving our cats in her care, as she is reliable, communicative and thorough. Both of our cats are comfortable with her as well - including one who is aging and has an ever growing list of medications and quirks that Lauri is patient and wonderful about. Highly recommended!”
About: I usually fall in love with pets when I meet them and treat them as I would treat my own. I have had cats and dogs all my life and enjoy being around them more than some people in my life. I am very patient and spend a lot of time just being with the pet talking to them and petting them. I am very good at following your directions and will not deviate from them. I haven't met a pet that I don't like yet. Please contact me if I can be of service to you or your pets. Thank you for your time and consideration. I also take care of other pets(fish etc.) but not snakes. I am available most days… I work at a local store part time… I usually can accommodate almost any situation… contact me and we can see what needs to done I can work around your schedule. I have no problem staying at your home as my cats are easy to take care of. I have never met a pet I didn’t like! I will follow your orders. Any special needs will be taken seriously. I usually go outside with the pups. Please be sure to write down any requests.
About: I’ve been a foster family for numerous dogs over the years. I’ve worked with numerous breeds and have been boarding for numerous consistent clients for over a decade. Animals are my deepest passion. Additionally, I have been rescuing domestic ducks for the past few years. Your pet will be loved as if they’re my own. I’ve worked with blind and deaf animals, dogs who pull on a leash, dogs who cannot be around other animals, and more! I currently work part time as a caregiver for special needs adults and children. If I am not home, I am not gone longer than 4 hours. I am in a masters degree program that is fully online so the rest of my week I am at home. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I’ve been working with animals all my life and always have an animal in the house. I have boarded and fostered for over 15 years and love to meet new animals and see reoccurring clients. I have a fenced in yard and offer lots of playtime and cuddles. Animals are allowed on the furniture but if you do not prefer that then I absolutely understand. I am more than welcome to crate your pet or not, the choice is yours! I have worked with many animals with behavior concerns and special needs. There is no animal that is too challenging.
About: Ive always loved all animals, and have had experience all through my life with them as I've had cats and dogs my whole life, I currently have 2 dogs at home, and they are crazy! I do now have and specific or special training with pets, I do know how to take care of and handle daily tasks for cats/dogs. I am looking to take care of pets full time for now, and want to continue taking care of them into the future, I'm available most days out of the week every week. With my dogs at home I walk them, pick up the poop and throw it away, I feed them, they get 2 different foods, Jasper is a puppy and needs a slow feeder, buddy is 2 years and gets fed out of a normal bowl, they get fed twice daily once in the morning and once at night. They love to play fetch and tug of war, but also like their cuddle time.
About: I think that animals have personalities, feelings, and emotions just like humans do. So when I take care of a furry friend, it's like I'm taking care of a baby. They need a lot of attention and require a lot of care. I like to get to know your fur baby and build a bond with them. I know that leaving your pet with a stranger can be nerve-racking but I want you to know that when you leave your dog in my care, that they will be treated with respect and given the best care that I can provide. I am always available and willing to put in the effort it takes. This would help supplement my income and give me the opportunity to spend more time with fur babies of all kinds! I enjoy the company of fur babies, it is very therapeutic. I have plenty of space for fur babies to be comfortable. I love to take my baby on walks and have plenty of play time as well.
About: Hi my name is Danielle and I would love to watch your furry friend for you while you are at work, school, etc. I'm a dog groomer, I've worked at an animal hospital, PetSmart , activity centers as a midnight animal caretaker and I've had experiences dealing with special needs dogs and seniors, I know warning signs of seizures and I'm very alert. I've been surrounded by dogs all my life and i love them so much, I find being around dogs to be very therapeutic for me and it helps them as well. I'm also into professional photography so get ready for a lot of pics of your pets. I'm not quite ready to stop doing services for my furry friends . I look forward to meeting you and your pal:) Rover is my main priority right now, so I have open availability to care for your fur babies. I usually need a heads-up for booking purposes, but message me, and maybe we can make arrangements for a visit sooner. I'm always on high alert when it comes to watching your furry friends, especially when it comes to dog-aggressive pets when we're outside. I also believe safety is super important to me.
About: I’ve been taking care of various animals big and small since I was young. I have experience with puppies, sick dogs and nervous ones. I have also worked with cats too! I work part-time and go to university. I am a commuter so I’m all over Metro Detroit! While my schedule changes each semester I keep relatively the same structure and availability! I like to maintain a clean environment and keep pets healthy. I have experience administering medication such as pills and I am able to accommodate any special needs of pets :)

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Clair Shores
So thankful to have found Ashley on Rover! We will continue using her to watch our sphynx kitties when out town. She went above and beyond and was so sweet to my kitties and made me comfortable to leave them in her care. Always on time, did exactly as asked and sent the cutest updates and photos. I had no complaints and would recommend her to anyone!
Mary took fantastic care of our cats. She’s so patient with our shy Gus, who has finally decided that Mary is a-ok. Gino, of course, is her biggest fan. We have zero concerns leaving them both in Mary’s care - she provides great updates and pictures and both boys are well loved while we are gone. We can’t ask for more! Mary also went above and beyond taking in very large packages that came while we were away - it is much appreciated. We already have Mary booked for our next trip!
So happy Jillian was available to do stop ins for our 3 cats. She showed them so much love and care, took care of everything we asked and made sure to send us daily notes and photos. Really appreciate the care which went above and beyond and will absolutely book again down the road.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Saint Clair Shores is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $30 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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 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.
