“Arden was amazing for our senior/deaf kitty Gonzo. He warmed up to her on the first visit, then tried to hold her captive. He loves her and so do we! We will definitely use Arden for future trips.”
“Courtney goes above and beyond when taking care of our loved ones. She is a fast communicator and always lets us know all the details of every visit we have booked with her. Our dogs had an amazing time every visit and she treated them like her own. We left out of town for a family emergency and our plane got delayed coming back. Courtney was super flexible to work with and she was able to book another day with us. Would definitely book Courtney again in the future. Thanks for everything! 😀”

I’ve had a Poodle with seizures a Rhodesian Ridge back that ate everything in sight .My recent cat had a mega colon issue when I adopted her it finally got to be too much for her.

My home is pet friendly i have no pets at this time I love animals and they seem to respond very lovingly to me . I’m retired from owning my own business so I’m not working and looking to supplement some extra income so my schedule is flexible and so are my days and evenings . When caring for your pet in my home or your home.I will be feeding and watering your pet giving them exercise and lots of love with all the care you expect and your pet deserves.
“Do not miss out on Lyle! He is the most loving, thoughtful, reliable person we’ve ever had watch our dogs. We were astonished by his authentic interest in our babies, as well as his deep knowledge about dogs. (He even did extra research about our breed!) After asking for our permission, he worked some magic with scents to make our little one’s feel safe while we were away. We are now able to travel without worry because we have Lyle. We’re so grateful for him.”
“Jessica was amazing, responded straight away and was very responsible, she took great care of Gizmo and went above and beyond of what was asked, I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica, so glad I found you 😁 Mandy B”
“Theresa dropped in twice a day to care for our cat while we were on vacation for 6 days. Izzy is very shy around people he does not know but by the 3rd day he was very comfortable with Theresa. Throughout the week we looked forward to the pictures that Theresa would send us of him getting head rubs, following her around, eating and talking. Additionally she gave him fresh water, cleaned the litter box and even brought in our mail for us. She did an exceptional job and we will definitely use her again. Thanks Theresa!!!”
“Melanie is amazing!! She was so sweet to help us out of a bind at the last minute, and absolutely wonderful with our puppies! She is sweet and thoughtful and we highly recommend her.”
“Kalyn is very understanding of dogs that may require some special care. She understands queues of dogs that may have anxiety meeting new people and is willing to take time and move slow with them. Very happy with her checking in on our dog.”
About: I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to get to know your furry friend’s needs, quirks, and preferences. My goal is to make your dog feel as comfortable and happy as they would at home, and give you peace of mind while you’re away. Hi, I’m Kelsey! I’m a passionate dog lover with experience caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I currently have a playful 3-year-old Mini Aussie Doodle, and in the past, I’ve had a Pit Mix and a Shepherd Mix, so I understand the unique needs of different dogs. Whether it’s an energetic pup or a more laid-back companion, I’m here to make sure your furry friend is happy and well-cared for. I work from home and am available for midday visits, evenings, weekends, and special occasions. My priority is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well-cared for at all times. With my background caring for various breeds and personalities, you can rest assured that your furry friend is in good hands!
“As I started a new job being away from home for many hours, my wife and I rushed to find someone to drop in on our Golden Retriever. In less than 24-hrs after meeting Emi-Lu, she became part of our family. Emi-Lu asked so many questions, showed deep care, and even left us a special note. She was so detailed and so caring. I know that Finn is safe and well taken care of when he is in Emi-Lu’s care. Her passion for animals, her empathy, and her attention to detail are unmatched!!!”
“Haley was great. She did so well with Max. He had such a good time, I could tell by all the pics. She was prompt and on time and very communicative. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: Dogs have always been in the family since I was 8 and my dog’s name is Riley. He’s a German shepherd mix. He’s been my running buddy for years. I like to go on walks and runs and would love bring some buddies along with me! I can also bring any dogs that require a bit more exercise to the dog park for some runs. I have fenced yard with plenty of space for runs and a ranch style home for any older pups who don’t like to climb stairs.
About: Hi! My name is Jess I feel the importance of empathy, they don’t have a voice to speak for themselves, so we must step in to listen &understand these animals to better care for them And perhaps in turn, let them care for us. I myself care for two (insane) orange tabby’s, and let me tell you they are something out of this world - Haha! But I wouldn’t and COULDN’T go a day without either of them being in my life, I was able to bring them in from not the best of situations and I thank the stars everyday that I did 😂. They are now registered Emotional Support Animals and do occasionally get to work! For as long as I can remember I have adored animals, I’ve always been curious and have always sought out random facts about animals, that fueled in to me caring for and owning a couple different types of animal friends(still waiting out on a few more tho haha ). I’m the family & friends go to pet sitter, I’m largely a cat person but have no issues with dogs. I do have a full time job I work around so, patience and scheduling is important for me! I do: -drop ins, -walks: morning(before work) and afternoon(after work) -overnight sitting: can stay in client home for up to 1 week regular price (my full time job responsibilities must bc taken into consideration) Would be working around a full time work schedule - 8hr shifts. Morning check ins, after work check ins. (9-5 schedule) for stays I’d be there except for work hours to care for animals. I don’t care for others pets in my own home-only my own. I greatly value open communication & schedules. Following owner guidelines makes care easiest! With your expectations known, I can provide the care you’re looking forward to.
“Erin is a fantastic sitter!! She’s great at accommodating last minute requests and always does a great job entertaining my energetic poodle puppy. Will continue to use her again whenever possible!”
“Barb was absolutely PERFECT!! Her impeccable attention to detail, not to mention her TLC in her care for Kodi made my trip so much more enjoyable and stress free! I was also really impressed by her interest in answering all of my questions, while being responsive to ANY concerns I might have had. That pretty much handled ANY worries or concerns with regard to Kodi being alone without me for three days. I will definitely be requesting Barb again whenever I need a sitter any time in the future! Craig Marsden”

I hesitate to give a 5 star review as I don’t want her becoming too busy but she is the absolute best. Our very picky cats loved her and would wait at the door for her. She spent lots of time playing with them and the pictures were great as we missed our little ones. Will absolutely use her again without a second thought.
Awesome Cat Sitter Great communication, informative updates, and priceless photos of our cats makes for an exceptional cat sitter We felt so at ease while traveling knowing that our cats were being cared for by Caili Highly recommended Highly recommended and would not hesitate to use again

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Wixom on Rover is $20.33 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,544 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wixom. 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 Wixom 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.
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 Wixom. 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
