“Sara made us feel more than secure leaving our pet in her care. Sara was even nice enough to extend our original request by a day with no heads up. We would absolutely request again!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I am responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or providing companionship, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of following routines and treating every pet like they’re my own. I'm a college student with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. I have time throughout the week to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I understand that pets thrive on routine, and I'll do my best to follow your pet's normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and happy. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and house rules. I take time to build trust with each pet, provide plenty of attention and supervision, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you're away. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know how your pet is doing.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dazzling Deb Does It Again! An Absolute Lifesaver! 🐾❤️ Another outstanding experience with Deborah! She came through for me at the very last minute AGAIN, and I couldn’t be more grateful! Deborah continues to impress me with her reliability, flexibility, attentiveness, and genuine love for Lola. Despite the short notice, she stepped right in, followed my care instructions beautifully, and made sure my sweet girl was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What truly sets Deborah apart is her willingness to help when it matters most. Her responsiveness, attention to detail, and compassionate approach give me tremendous peace of mind, especially when unexpected circumstances arise. Finding someone dependable is wonderful, but finding someone who consistently goes above and beyond is priceless! Dazzling Deb is officially my go-to girl for Lola! She’s an absolute gem, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you, Deb, for saving the day once again! Five stars aren’t enough! 🌟🐶❤️”
“Sarah was amazing with our pup! He loves her so much and she made sure he had no accidents the whole visit. She was so great about keeping us updated on how he was doing and sending photos to keep us posted! We would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet and knowledgeable pet sitter. ☺️”
“His Honda was great!!! She sent pictures every time she visited and our pets looked very happy!! Both our dog & cat were happy & calm when we returned!! Will 100% be asking Yushonda back if she’ll have us! -)”
About: Hi, I'm CJ! I moved to Michigan from Texas in August 2024 and grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, caring for pets is second nature to me. Starting June 14, I will be on a break from my teaching job and home full time, giving your pet plenty of attention and care. I have a spacious, fenced backyard and live in a dog friendly neighborhood that is perfect for safe play and fresh air. Your pet will be well cared for in a calm, comfortable home environment. Special Offer: First time using Rover? I can give you $20 off your first booking—just ask me for the promo code! I spend my mornings walking and feeding the pets, making sure they start the day happy. While I’m at work, my partner—who works from home—plays with and walks the dogs. Our afternoons and weekends are flexible and depend on the weather, so we change our plans to make sure the pets get the best care. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, a visit to the park, or a trip to the dog park, we always focus on keeping them happy and healthy. In my home, safety is number one. I maintain a secure space with pet proof surroundings, crate training for added security. During walks, no pets will be unleashed. Play dates are not just for fun but closely monitored to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for every pet in my care.
“10/10 would hire Taylor again to watch our cats. Our cats are normally pretty shy and skittish with new people, but Taylor did a great job interacting with them and making them feel safe. We are really impressed with the care and communication that Taylor provided and she made us feel confident that our fur babies were well taken care of while we were out of town.”
About: I have experience in different avenues of pet care. I have dog/house-sat periodically since I was 18. I also have experience working at a pet grooming salon, so I feel very comfortable with pets of any size. I am also confident with providing medical care, such as pills, shots, etc! I currently work part-time, and have a lot of free time in my schedule to be able to stay with/take care of pets! I am also a full time student, but currently am enrolled fully online. I currently am only able to stay at client’s homes, because I have 5 crazy pets of my own at my house. I make an effort to build a connection with not only the pets but also the clients, and follow whatever guidelines they set for me to stay with their furry friends!
“I needed someone on very short notice (on Christmas Eve) to let my old girl Lola out for me at night to save me from having to leave family Christmas party and drive 30 minutes both ways. Kellie came in clutch! Quick responses, and followed instructions precisely. Will definitely book again in the future.”
“We had a family emergency and needed someone to watch our two large, super energetic dogs on short notice. Patricia was available right away to help and did an amazing job. The dogs loved her and we had no worries while we were away handling our family emergency. We are still so grateful for her help and professionalism!”
About: I am looking to find dog owners with high energy dogs. The huskies, labs, healers etc that need to put in miles every day to stay happy. I can show up for my listed dog walking rate ($10) and can then run anywhere from 2-20 miles with them for an additional $15/mile. Message me if this is something you would be interested in!! I work in outside sales from home 4 days a week, the the other 3 I am on the road for 8-10 hours a day. I have 2 friendly dogs and am very energetic, I run/walk multiple times a day and spend most my time outside. Very patient with dogs and can help leash train.
About: I absolutely adore spending time with dogs and giving them the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while their families are away. Whether it’s energetic daily walks, playful park adventures, or calm drop-ins with plenty of belly rubs and treats, I make sure every pup feels happy, safe, and loved. With my flexible schedule as an Audiologist Assistant and Pilates instructor-in-training, I’m often available for morning, midday, or evening walks and can accommodate last-minute needs. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels (including seniors and high-energy pups), and I’m comfortable with basic medications, special diets, or following any custom routines your dog needs. Pet parents can count on me for frequent photo and text updates so you never miss a moment. Safety is my top priority — I always use secure leashes, check for hazards, and follow your instructions to the letter. I’m a mom to a sweet little girl and believe in treating every pet like part of the family. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, enthusiastic dog walker who will give your furry friend the best care possible, I’d love to meet you and your pup!
About: I am a nurse and have taken care of dogs for about 30 years. Available most days. Any pet in my care will receive attention all day as someone is always home to care for them when boarding with us. I work during the day however there is always someone home to allow for play and potty breaks. Our house is on . Lake so if your dog likes to swim we are hapoy to swim with them😋 I have a GEO yard and collars if your dog likes to run otherwise leashed walks several times a day. Dog toys available. Willing to provide referrences and vet records from our own vet.
About: In the past I was able to dog sit for this lady whenever she would go on vacation. I loved coming home to the dog and would take care of him like he was mine! I am available to walk your dog(s) after 3pm weekdays and anytime on weekends! I can also dog sit whenever! Preferably at the owners house! If I’m sitting at your house I’m sure to take the dog out as soon as I come home from work and even come home to them on my break to let them out.
About: Hi there, I'm Rachel! My partner, Stefan, and I are traveling full time across the US in our Mercedes Sprinter and we are looking for way to keep our adventure going while simultaneously seeking out new fur-friends along the way! Since we are so mobile, we are extremely flexible in our schedule and can give your pup (or cat) family members our undivided attention. We also have a 10 month old rescue pup named Knoppers if you're looking for socialization, too! I've had at least one dog or cat in my household all my life! I was a pet care specialist at Petsmart for 4 years and a dog bather for 1. This means I have a wide range of experience with all sorts of animals. Experience in care of exotic pets that include (not limited to): chinchillas, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, ball pythons, parakeets, and conures! At the end of the day, our goal is to give the best care to all the animals we are entrusted to look after. Our plan is to travel the whole US while looking for pit stops to help people along the way! Our schedule is wide open. We are open to what works best for you and your loved ones. Our number one goal is to care for your pets just as you would! Ideally, if you're looking for a multi-day or overnight pet sitter, we could park our van in the driveway so we'd be just a few steps away from your fur babies. If preferred, I could stay in the home with the pets - it's all about communication! We have our 10 month old puppy who is always looking for new friends. He would be more than happy to keep your pets entertained. If your dog(s) would prefer not to have company, we are more than happy to oblige. As previously stated, I worked at Petsmart for 5 years and have even more experience with meeting new animals and noticing the signs of stress or what to do should there be a scuffle between two dogs.

Kaitlin was great with communication during all of the visits. We really appreciated the updates and pictures too! This was the first time in a very long time Annabelle was at ease when we got home from our trip. We highly recommend Kaitlin and would definitely have her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Swartz Creek is $13 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $22 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 850 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Swartz Creek. 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
