“We did a meet and greet initially. Mary kept us informed of Hunter and how he was doing as we started the process. She was excellent and Hunter seemed to enjoy himself once he was settled. Thank you Mary!”
“Britnie was great with my puppy. She hand fed him when he wouldn’t eat, sent me updates, and took very good care of my little Max. We will definitely use her again!”
“I was in a desperate situation with my other lady who watched my dogs when I travel when I learned that she wasn’t taking good care of them. And I almost cancelled a trip but found Mia and Phillip and they seemed really nice and thorough so I used them for a two week trip. They were wonderful…I got pictures or videos twice a day with updates and always felt they were secure. A really good experience so you can use them with no fear.”
“Craig was so kind and gracious to Cooper! He sent multiple pictures of our pup per the request. Cooper was so loved and had a great time. Would rebook!”
“OMGGGGG! I’m new to having pets. My daughter had an OFSAA tournament in Sarnia. We know no one in Sarnia. It was my first time using Rover. Angie responded quickly. Her rate and reviews are GREAT! She kept our minds at ease by sending pics, videos, notes throughout the day. She made the cutest posts. It was our first time away from Toby. There was a lot of anxiety but Angie put us at ease. She has a park next to her home to walk Toby. Not only is Angie great…but so is her family! So welcoming and friendly and kind. I know where to go if I’m back in Sarnia. Angie is 100% dependable kind and patient and just loves animals! 100% recommend Angie!”
“Sandra is amazing with Walter! He loves going to see her and always comes home happy. She makes sure he gets lots of attention and plays with him. She is the best!”
“We are so glad that we found Laura she's such a caring person. She's the best we ever had. Very focused highly responsive. Keep sending updates and pictures about everything including meals and recreation. One on one attention. Highly recommend.”
“Avri was amazing! We had a great experience with Avri and would happily book with her again. She took excellent care of Stella, kept us updated with regular messages and cute photos, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Stella was well cared for and comfortable. We really appreciated the communication, reliability, and genuine care she showed. Highly recommend!”
“Bambi (my dog) could not have been better taken care of by Katie. Katie is full of dog knowledge, very attentive, and genuinely wants to make sure that your dog is as comfortable as possible. Katie's dog Blitz is also such a great dog and really made Bambi at ease, especially since Bambi can be quite a nervous pooch. Katie is a person who really does love dogs, which makes her an obvious choice as a boarder. If you need your dog taken care of while you're away, Katie is a fantastic choice.”
“Nathan and his family are excellent dog sitters. Duke had a great time. He was sending pictures so I can see how Duke was managing being away from home. I truly appreciate the great care they gave my dog. I’ll definitely use them again.”
“Catherine was very good to Mojo! It’s always a little nerve wracking to leave your pup at a new place for the first time, but Catherine made my dog feel right at home. I would definitely use her again for dog sitting.”
“Tory was wonderful with our Coco! I was able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing she was taking care of her. She gave me updates multiple times a day on how she was doing and sent cute pics!”
“Eunju spoiled our labrador completely! She took her to various parks for long walks and puppy adventures. Eunju makes it easy to travel with peace of mind, sending daily updates & taking care of our dog so lovingly.”
“Lindsay was amazing, her home was very professional, doggy friendly and clean. She was the sweetest and very educated on animals. We felt very safe leaving our pupper in Lindsay's care. P.s. i would re-book just so I can play with Sasha again ?”
“Deena is a great care taker and did a marvelous job with my Morgan. She asked great questions and clearly connected with her and was good about providing updates and pictures.”
“Jessica was simply amazing. We’ve never left our girls for any amount of time before and they were there for a week. Jessica was super patient and understanding with our one dog who needed some extra time to get comfortable around other dogs and cats. We were sent daily pictures and updates and videos throughout the week. Initially we were nervous being away from them for so long but we knew they were in good hands. The updates reassured us that they were having an amazing time and enjoyed their vacation at Jessica’s house. I 100% recommend Jessica to watch your dogs, and will be a return customer next time we need her services! Thank you again 🥰”
“Nina did an awesome job taking care of my pug she was able to send plenty of pictures and continued to communicate with me periodically . I would high recommend Nina to take care of your pet.”

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Algonac can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Algonac home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Algonac.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.

You and your Algonac sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
