I am available during the week and most weekends. Monday-Friday: available at any time Tuesday-Thursday: any time before 8am, or after 5pm I am comfortable with feeding, scooping litter, playing, taking outside, giving medication and I am able to handle any aspect of care your pet may need.

We were very pleased with Christine (and Brad) for taking such good care of Freddie while we were gone away on vacation. Christine kept in very good contact with us and kept us apprised each day of how Freddie was doing and what he was doing and sent pics to us each time. Not only did she take excellent care of Freddie, but she also vaccumed the rug of excess cat hair, as he is a long-haired cat, and she didn't want us to come home to clumps of cat fur on the carpet. Additionally, she also watered our plants and brought in our mail daily. We would definitely recommend her (them) to other pet owners and we appreciate everything they did for Freddie and us.

About: My family has always been a "dog" family. I've taken responsibility to take care of all our family dogs and i've grown to love animals ever since then:) I am currently a student at Michigan State University and am available throughout the summer, during school breaks, and on most weekends. During the school year, my availability may vary, but please feel free to message me to check if I'm available:) I read care instructions very carefully and follow all precautions. I am also stronger and can keep them near or control them easier. I love to provide them with love and comfort or any fun play time.

Greyson did a wonderful job watching my boy. I wasn't sure how open Ozzy would be to interacting with a new person but he really opened up to them. I loved reading the after visit notes, I would share them with the people I was with. Greyson was also really flexible when I had a family situation come up and had to move my trip earlier. I will definitely be booking them again the next time I need someone to watch Ozzy.

About: I currently have a small dog with diabetes and need to give her insulin every 12 hours. Both of our babies have a health care plan with our veterinarian and all vaccinations are up to date. They both love taking walks in the park and riding in the car. My other dogs previous to these were 15 years old plus. I love dogs and dogs seem to love me too. I have a fenced in back yard and a large house. Our babies normally have run of the entire house. I would love to work in the Humane Society although, I would want to take them all home with me. It also saddens me to see commercials with the neglected animals and the conditions that they are subjected to. I wish that I could save all of the dogs that are neglected. I have taken care of dogs since I was thirteen years old. I have also taken care of friends dogs when they are gone on vacation. I will be retired and will have time to spend with the dogs that I will be caring for.

Peace of mind is what Jenna provided us! We are first time Rover users. Jenna was all business with a huge side of kindness!! She fought the awful elements here in Michigan...we were gone during the extreme cold so we are extra appreciative! She even washed out the food containers I had prepared our dog's food in, as well as the fun lick pad we use for our cat! I honestly didn't expect that because I am lazy and leaving them soaking for a week! Hahaha Also, being that we were gone for 7 days (they are used to me being home everyday) I appreciated the pictures of Piper and Archer cuddling with Jenna! Tells me all I need to know! Jenna will be our future extended fam!

Jean is great. She has been making drop-in visits for our lab puppy for a few weeks now. Her son and our puppy have become best buds. She always provides us pics and updates of what Moose did during the visit. She has asked what commands he knows and is working on the ensure she is on the same page with what we are teaching him as he grows. Questions like that have shown us that she really cares about Moose and his development. Thanks Jean!

Samantha is terrific and we are very happy with how she took care of our cat Sarah. Samantha sent photos every day and let us know how Sarah was doing and she watered our plants and unboxed and watered the new arrivals as well. She was very responsive as well as respectful of our home and we definitely will have her take care of Sarah again. Thanks a million.

Sherri was great with my dog from start to finish. She genuinely loves pets and brought puzzles to play with my dog. She is attentive, knowledgeable, and gives you comprehensive updates daily. She sent me a ton of pictures and in almost all of them my dog was smiling. I recommend her 100% for any pet needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Van Buren Charter Township on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 3,416 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Van Buren Charter Township. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Van Buren Charter Township stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Van Buren Charter Township choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Van Buren Charter Township with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Van Buren Charter Township. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
