“Heather is awesome! She came for a meet and greet before we booked which I appreciated. Heather is a great communicator. Ike was content when I returned home, and Heather sent photos while I was away. The house was immaculate. I highly recommend Heather. She is attentive, dependable, trustworthy and professional.”
“Kate is very conscientious and dependable. I’ve booked her in the past and will hire her any time I need a sitter for my two senior cats. They’re very shy, but she was able to draw them out for pets and attention. They love her!”
About: I moved to Saugatuck with my boyfriend December 2024 and have been absolutely loving southwest Michigan! I’ve been taking care of dogs and cat (and some reptiles) for as long as I can remember. As far as boarding goes, we have a 7 month old puppy who is so sweet with other animals. I’m currently working part-time on a set schedule, Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings - while I pursue my master’s degree in marriage and family counseling online. I have the friendliest dog, Obi. He is about to be 7 months old. We have plenty of yard space, but it is not fenced. We have a long leash attached to our porch for when Obi wants to play outside.
“Nicole was fabulous! I cannot speak highly enough of the care she gave our three cats while we were away and how well she communicated with us to let us know how our girls were doing! The pictures she sent made it abundantly clear that our cats were being well taken care of and also being well loved! She will be my go to pet sitter for sure!”
“Sam did a great job watching my cat while I was in the hospital. She went overboard to ensure Autumn was integrated with her own cats. The pictures and videos were really appreciated and helped make my hospital stay more bearable.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was little. They always had a special place in my heart. I have a job at a boarding facility for dogs and have gained lots of new skills. The skills I’ve learned consist of potty walks, paying attention to behaviors, preparing food, always making water available, and understanding every dog is different and building trust between each dog is a main priority to making them feel safe. On Mondays and Tuesdays I have my Vet Tech classes but I always can come to your home after my classes which would be around noon. I currently work part time at a boarding facility until 12:30 ish on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and sometimes Saturday’s, it just depends on what I get scheduled to work that week. I can do house visits after I work around 2:00 pm and stay until 8 pm. I will not be boarding dogs at my house due to me having two dogs that aren’t around other dogs. My service I offer is caring for your pet in your home.
“Caroline was awesome! It was our first time leaving our baby, and was constantly missing our baby, but Caroline constantly communicated to us and gave us peace of mind. She took extra effort to care for our baby and make sure she’s not too overwhelmed, everything we asked Caroline, she did! Though we wouldn’t want to leave our baby Eos again for a long vacation, we know exactly who we want to care and feed our baby again. Thank you Caroline :)”
“Alison was great! She was very informative when arriving and taking care of my babies. This was my first time using Rover and will definitely be using her in the future! Thanks Alison!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years and have experience with pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have consistently trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable handling high-energy dogs, shy or anxious pets, and senior animals who need a little extra patience. I understand how important routine and consistency are, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins during weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I will plan my schedule carefully, so your pet receives dedicated attention and isn’t rushed. Whether you need consistent weekly visits or occasional coverage while traveling, I can accommodate most needs with advance notice. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I will follow your care instructions closely and maintain your pet’s normal routine to minimize stress. In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and attentive to security. I will pay close attention to behavior changes, ensure gates and doors are secure, and keep a calm, positive environment. You can trust that your pet will receive responsible, attentive care every visit.
About: I was a shelter worker for 5 years and helped run a doggie daycare for 3 years! I have animal medicine and training experience as well as lots of time spent with young puppies and seniors that need special care. I have my own wonderful dog, cat, snake and turtle. Ive been sitting for over 10 years and I love spending time with all animals, it makes me happy to give them good days! Im currently working part time so I have a lot of free time to take care of your pups or other animals! Im free all weekdays and Sundays except for 3 hour shifts. Im able to go to work and come straight back to your pet and I am also available for some Saturdays so Im almost always free! I cant bring dogs or cats into my own home as I have a reactive dog and cat that dont get along with their own species but I do have plenty of experience watching dogs in their own home. Im very careful about flight risk dogs being secured and am good with nervous animals!
“Allison was a great sitter and friend for Smitty for the three weeks we were out of town. There were many visits involved over this time period and Allison did a good job communicating with us about Smitty's various walks and play-times, what kind of mood he was in, whether he drank some water after play-time, and other info. She really cares about Smitty and enjoys the work. We highly recommend Allison!”

“Sophia was quick to respond to a last minute request, communicative, professional and arrived on time. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy and well cared for during the visit.”
About: Caring for others (especially animals) is genuinely my passion! I have been a nanny for over 7 years which opened me up to pet care as well. Since most families I worked for had pets, I took on the responsibility of caring for them as well as their children. I do not work outside of the home which means I can dedicate all my time to your dog! I usually only take one booking at a time, so If your dog doesn’t get along with other animals that’s no problem. I will always put your animals safety and care first! I will make sure all of their needs are met and your pet is played with and given lots of attention

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
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.
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.
