About: Hello! My name is Mike and I've been fostering dogs since 2019. I've had approximately 18 come and go, only foster "failing" (foster dogs who I ended up keeping) with two who stayed and had the best golden years. I lost my most recent boy in August, a blind Bichon, just shy of his 12th birthday and after 3 great years. He was type-1 diabetic and blind, and after so much time as a foster getting his insulin regulated, he decided I was his forever family. He had a sister when I got him, a senior Yorkie with diabetes insipidus and a host of health issues. All that is to say I'm a professional at insulin, rigid medication schedules and diet maintenance. Presently I have no dogs of my own. When it comes to your dog, I'll keep your daily routine and walk schedules too, so your pups stay is as minimally disruptive to their normal routine as possible. I've fostered dogs of many breeds from Chihuahuas and a Rat Terrier to a Golden Retriever and Saint Bernard. I've had as many as 4 dogs at once so I'm open to having multiple pups at once. I'll never accept dogs from multiple families unless both families are booking together and the dogs are socialized with each other already. And I'll never cancel a confirmed stay for a more lucrative multi-dog request. I live alone in a detached house in Wallaceburg, and I work from home so your dog won't be left alone aside from short errands. I'm not big on crating dogs, leaving them free to be where they like while I'm gone. I have a den with glass door if you tell me they need smaller quarters, or you can bring your crate for me to use. I have a large fenced yard for playing fetch or dogs who need to run. This is a total dog house. I bought it due to its flat land and not having stairs, and I built a ramp down to the yard. I installed a dog door but it will stay blocked unless having access is suitable for your pups. Dogs are welcome on the couch and the bed, and will have free roam of the house (there's no basement, and garage isn't accessible). House sitting radius: the Rover app limits a 100km radius when setting the territory I can offer the services. I've got my radius set Eastward to circle Toronto, as I grew up there and love an opportunity to take gigs that get me into the city. Unfortunately I can't draw a circle that includes Windsor, but I'm happy to take gigs there too. If you're in London, Kitchener-Waterloo, Cambridge, Brantford, or the GTA, and you have a dog that can be left alone for 2-3hrs max, I may be willing to offer discounts on price so I can catch up with family and friends in those areas while I'm there. If you have any questions or you'd like to arrange a tour or meet and greet, don't hesitate to reach out. I work fulltime hours from home, typical office hours. I'm usually awake by 7am and bed by midnight. I don't have many friends in town so I'm home most of the time. My yard is fully fenced. I have a couple Tile tracking tags that I can attach to their collar if they're an escape artist (or you'd like to track your pups location remotely). Hazardous items like cleaning products are kept in cupboards or in my detached garage. My house is pretty dog proofed and I'm not concerned if your pup has an accident. That's what mops and upholstery cleaners are for. I think I've developed pretty good dog body language, and only correct misbehaviour by command and redirection. I'm a bit of a sucker that let's them get carried away when they're being silly, but particularly with bigger dogs I'll make sure their training is maintained (no jumping up to greet, making sure they don't assert dominance etc.)

“Felt very comfortable dropping him off and picking him up. Chesney seemed like he had a great day. Mikayla took pics and Chesney looked like he was doing great. For his first time being in a different home with people he did not know, I think he did well. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve done a lot of puppy raising and training. I have had 6 labs that I have raised and trained from 6 weeks old on. I also have experience with senior dogs, giving medication and helping them to get around and be comfortable. I would love to watch your new puppy while you are away for the day or longer. I can help with basic training socialization. I am occasionally subbing for special education at a school at the corner of my street. If I happen to get called into sub I am able to come home at lunch only leaving the dogs for a few hours at a time. I have a 5 year old yellow Labrador that is very friendly and gets along very well with other dogs. I have a spacious, fully fenced yard—and a built-in companion! Dogs I welcome into our home are treated like part of the family, just like our own beloved fur baby. I also have a crate available, which our dog uses freely whenever she wants a cozy spot to relax.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life & will do anything to make you’re fur baby have the best time with me!! Im the biggest animal lover 💛 I am currently self employed so I make my own schedule & I would be able to be available whenever you’re pup/cat needs me ☺️ Will take potty breaks, make sure they have water, food if requested, I will clean up after them after they use the bathroom and play with them and love them♥️
About: Here to help with all your pets needs. Love being around dogs and have enough room for yours to run around and have a great time. Been raising dogs for over 12 years! I have always had dogs in my life and love being around them. Friends bring their dogs over , family , my yard is over a half acre and there’s plenty of room to run! Working on finish fencing in my back yard for the ability to leave dogs outside for longer periods. They will always be supervised and will get a lot of running in while being over!
About: I've had pets my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, from Yorkies to Huskies. As a proud cat mom to two energetic "tiny terrors," I'm also comfortable caring for cats and understanding their unique personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I am an experienced exotic pet keeper and understand the importance of proper care, feeding schedules, and attention to each pet's individual needs. I love spending time outdoors playing with dogs, going for walks, and helping them stay active and happy. I'm also experienced in caring for senior dogs and understand the patience, gentleness, and extra attention they may require. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. Animals have always been a part of my daily life. Between caring for my own cats and years of experience with dogs, exotic pets, and senior animals, pet care is second nature to me. I work remotely, which allows me to be home throughout the day and provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and care as needed. I make time each day for feeding, exercise, enrichment, and lots of affection. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I provide care in both my home and my clients' homes, depending on what works best for you and your pet. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise. Since I work remotely, I am home throughout the day and can provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medication (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I am comfortable crating pets if needed. As I am just getting started, I do not currently have a crate available, so I ask that owners provide one if their pet is crate trained or requires crating. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you're away. 🐾
“Jenaya is the absolute best!! She was so warm and welcoming to me and my babies. She took very good care of them and sent me pictures throughout the day. I love how she handles my dogs and how patient yet fun she is with my dogs. Her home was clean. She communicated with me throughout the day. She made me feel very comfortable ensuring me that my babies were in good hands. I CAN NOT WAIT TO BOOK AGAIN (:”

“As a first time puppy owner, I am so grateful for Sarah! She was communicative, friendly and bonded with my pup immediately. I highly recommend her services and will be using her for future needs.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 when my family got our first family dog. I would babysit and walk neighbor dogs for summer fun and a little extra spending cash. Now I have 2 rescue fur babies that I have had since they were puppies. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for play sessions and walks during most weekdays 9 am – 2 pm. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Long walks or short, new energetic puppy or senior slow time either is good with me. Safety and security are guaranteed.
About: Exceptional care, personalized attention, and peace of mind while you’re away. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home environment where your dog receives the same level of care and attention I would expect for my own. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am comfortable with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and individual needs. I work from home, so your pup receives consistent supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. My home also features a private, securely fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and fresh air. I’m attentive to routines, special meals, behaviors, and the little details that make each dog unique. Whether your pup is energetic, vocal, or simply loves being spoiled, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. They’re welcome to relax on the furniture, sleep in the bed, go on walks and adventures, and most importantly feel completely at home. My priority is simple: keeping your dog safe, happy, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you have complete peace of mind. 🐾 ************************************************************Diesel is unfortunately no longer with us, so there are no dogs in my home at the moment. *************************************************************I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent, one-on-one attention throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, with plenty of time for walks, playtime, outdoor breaks, meals, and companionship. I’m able to be attentive to each dog’s individual schedule and needs while maintaining a calm, safe, and comfortable environment. I especially enjoy incorporating dogs into my day through walks and adventures, so they’re never simply left sitting around waiting for their next interaction. 🐾 Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and secure home environment with a private fenced-in yard, and I’m able to offer close supervision throughout the day since I work from home. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, including feeding instructions, medications when needed, exercise, and any special preferences or accommodations. I treat every pet as an individual and take the time to understand their personality, boundaries, and needs before they arrive. I’m also respectful of each client’s home and instructions when providing care there. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, relaxed, loved, and completely at home—and for their owners to have total peace of mind while they’re away.

“Samantha was absolutely amazing to my puppy Kylo, she was really accommodating willing to get up super early to babysit Kylo! She communicated really well throughout the day, sending lots of pictures and videos. And responding right away to my text. She was very attentive to Kylo throughout the day, she didn’t just leave him in his crate. He played super hard and had so much fun. He passed right out when we got home. Her family was also very welcoming to Kylo as well. Overall a really good experience we will definitely be booking with her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Algonac is $39 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $39 per day. 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 507 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Algonac. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Algonac commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 507 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MI. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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 .

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.
