About: Hi! My name is Brooklyn, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I truly enjoy giving them the attention, love, and exercise they need to feel happy and safe. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet—they’re family. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, playtime, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. As your Rover sitter, I provide reliable, loving care that follows your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Each day includes morning and evening walks or potty breaks, feeding as instructed, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and happy while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority while in my care. I provide a calm, supervised home environment where pets are never left unattended during outdoor breaks, especially since there is no fenced yard. Dogs are always leashed for walks and potty breaks to ensure full safety and control. I maintain a clean, secure space with a structured routine to help pets feel relaxed and at home. You can trust that your pet will be cared for with attention, responsibility, and a safe environment at all times.

About: With me, your pet receives consistency, calm, and a familiar routine in the home they already know. I send regular updates and photos each day so you can be sure that your pet is safe and relaxed. I'm comfortable administering medications and handling pets with specific needs, and I take the time before every stay to understand your pet's personality and preferences. I'm genuinely invested in their comfort and well-being while you're away. Pet care is built into my day, not worked around it. When I'm staying with your pet, I'm based in your home for the majority of the day and through the night, so your pet has consistent company, regular check-ins, and a reassuring, responsible presence nearby. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I'd want shown to my own. I follow your pet's existing routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, play, rest, so their day feels familiar. I keep your space tidy and give you regular updates so you always feel assured that both your pet and your home are well taken care of.

About: 10 years dog owner and lifetime cat owner. Very patient and caring with animals. Good at following instructions if special care is needed. Not scared of large dogs. I work part time from home so my schedule is pretty flexible when it comes to pet sitting walks or what ever the job requires. I have two large dogs Rottweiler and Pitt Rottweiler mix and three cats. Dogs are cat friendly. Large yard and crate is available upon request if needed.

“Hannah was absolutely outstanding from beginning to end! She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, giving us regular updates and making us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about each of our pets and took exceptional care of them. When we came home, all of our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored Hannah. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such capable and caring hands. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and would recommend Hannah without hesitation to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and truly wonderful with animals. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“Amelia is an amazing dog sitter. She is extremely kind and very good at communicating every visit. She sends pictures and gives updates and lets you know if anything is wrong. My dog experienced some sickness while I was gone for a week. She then proceeded to check on my pup an extra time throughout the day without me having to ask. She cleaned up after her and made sure she felt better. I have never left my dog for a week before so I was nervous. Amelia did such a great job that I didn’t have to worry because my pup was in good hands!”

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 12 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive. From playful activities to structured downtime and personalized attention for pups with unique needs, I tailor each day to your dog’s individual personality. With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging. No matter the weather, your dog will always have a cozy, engaging, and joyful space to call their home-away-from-home. Your pup’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! Our fully fenced-in backyard is designed with your dog’s comfort and enjoyment in mind, featuring pools, toys, water bowls, and all the essentials for a fun and enriching experience. Each dog is fed separately to maintain a peaceful and individualized routine. For dogs who prefer more privacy, we provide private rooms to ensure they have a quiet space away from the other dogs when needed. We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized environment for every dog in our care.

She was extremely patient and low-key, which is just what Faith needs. I was thrilled to receive video and picture updates throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Ella as a sitter for anyone looking in the Shelbyville area :)”

About: I have experience taking care of senior dogs, large breed dogs, breeds that have been “deemed aggressive,” small dogs and so on! I currently am mom to a 4 year old boxer pit mix who I rescued from the shelter 2 years ago when he was going to be euthanized for “being too large and taking up space.” It’s safe to say that your large dogs will be safe with me, as they have a special place in my heart! I enjoy the time I spend with every dog I take care of, and I promise to take your furry friend on adventures and I promise to keep them enriched during their time with me! I understand how hard it is to be away from your pet, and knowing they are in good hands and adventuring makes the time away easier. I also have experience with dogs that are more active than others and who need more enrichment than other dogs. I’m a pro at making a frozen Kong, frozen lick mat, or a treat puzzle! I work full-time but maintain a highly structured daily routine centered around my two dogs. I am fully available for walks and drop-in visits during early mornings, evenings, and all day on weekends, ensuring your pet gets dedicated, reliable care. I do not care for pets in my home but I am willing to do drop in visits, walks or even extended stays with my clients pets. I care for every dog as I do my own, and I will strictly follow the rules that the client has laid out for me (for example, if your pet needs to be crated at a certain time, I will ensure that they are crated at that time!)

About: I used to be a groomer at a local business and took care of so many different dogs! I love being around any animals truly, but dogs hold a special place in my heart! I am currently in college to be an Ultrasound Tech. I am available throughout the weekdays almost anytime needed unless I have something come up with work! I treat every client’s home and pets with the utmost care and respect! During visits, I follow their exact feeding and potty routine, make sure water bowls are always clean and full, wipe paws if it’s messy outside, and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I always ensure doors and gates are securely locked and keep you updated with photos so you have total peace of mind while you're away.

About: Hi, I'm Jill! Dogs have been part of my life since I can remember. I've spent years caring for and connecting with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Friends and family often call me the "dog whisperer" because I seem to naturally build trust with dogs, whether they're shy, anxious, energetic, independent, or just need a little extra patience. I also have a special appreciation for senior dogs and understand their unique needs, routines, and comfort requirements. Your pup will be welcomed into a loving home with Sunny, my friendly chocolate Lab, a large-fenced yard, a doggie door, and plenty of supervised playtime and attention throughout the day. There is also optional swimming in the river behind my home. As a full-time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule, I'm home or nearby most of the time, so your dog will enjoy companionship, exercise, and plenty of affection rather than being left alone for long periods. I believe every dog is an individual. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, cuddle, or simply relax in a calm environment, I'll take the time to learn their personality and routine, so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you're away. My home is where dogs aren't just watched—they're welcomed, understood, and loved. 🐾 I am a fully time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule. I spend much of my day working from home or close by, which means your dog won't be left along for long periods. I have a fenced-in back yard and one very friendly female Chocolate Lab named Sunny who loves to play. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs sleep in my room in a crate or on the floor at night

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from farm animals to indoor pets, including dogs, cats, and reptiles. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 reptiles of my own, so daily animal care is already a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, administering routine care, potty breaks, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and treated like family while in my care. I work full-time as a dental assistant Monday–Thursday, but I’m available before and after work and have full availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I make pet care a priority and can provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and care to ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved while with me. I provide a safe, loving environment and follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and lots of attention to keep them comfortable and happy.

About: I’ve always believed that pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, especially when their people are away. I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m attentive to the little things, whether that’s making sure they get their medication, sticking to their normal schedule, giving them plenty of love and attention, or noticing when something just seems a little off. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s making sure you can be away knowing your pets are happy, cared for, and in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule because animals are already a big part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable working around different routines and making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I plan my schedule ahead of time so I can give the pets I’m caring for the time and attention they deserve rather than making them feel like they’re being squeezed into a busy day. My goal is to make their care feel consistent, calm, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Your pets deserve more than just someone stopping by—they deserve someone who genuinely cares about them. I provide loving, dependable in-home pet care tailored to your pet’s normal routine and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs, including providing medications and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. During visits, I’ll make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks and exercise, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also keep their space clean and give you updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in South Haven on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $30 per visit. 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 463 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across South Haven. 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 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 South Haven. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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 Meet & Greet .

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.
