Derek is by far the best dog sitter I ever had! My girls loved him and enjoyed the attention they received from him! He was calm and understanding and did his best to wear my Vizslas out! I will continue to ask Derek to care for my girls as I know they are getting the best care possible. I trust him and know he will take care of them as if they were his own.

Terry and his wife cared for our Winnie for four days. They kept us updated with texts and pictures, and Winnie seemed very happy and content. I’m sure he loved the attention and, of course, the big back yard to roam about. We would definitely never hesitate to leave Winnie with these nice folks.

Christoper was fantastic with our two dogs. We use rover regularly and he has been one of the best so far. We had to book last minute for a trip to GA and he was nothing but helpful. We got regular updates and felt like the dogs were in great hands while we were miles away. They came back to us happy and in probably in better shape than when we left them. Highly recommend Christopher and his kids.

About: I’ve grown up with many dogs and cats in my lifetime. I currently watch my son’s dog when they travel. I have a large home and 2/1/2 acres in a country setting . We are retired and would provide many hours of care towards your pet.we are available anytime throughout the week.Your welcome to visit my home prior to sitting. I live on 2/1/2 aces in a large log cabin in a country sitting. I don’t have any pets as of now and this would fill that void. I’m currently on list to take care of pets for active duty military when they are deployed. I’m also a veteran and active in the American legion.

Christina was great with our dog Asher! She was great at communicating and sent pictures of him to us while we were on vacation and showed us how he was loving spending time with their dog. They even sent us home with a new dog toy for Asher and he loves it. Thanks for helping us out! We will definitely request to book with them again.

Theresa was absolutely amazing! I dont think I could have asked for a better sitter for our dog. She was so sweet and had an awesome set up for the dogs. She had our dog for almost 2 weeks while we were away and he did great at her house. She sent updates and was quick to respond to my texts. I appreciate her so much 💓

About: I was raised around dogs and have been a dog owner for over 20 years. Over the years, I have provided pet care for friends and family and decided to expand my services to help other pet owners as well. I work on site 4 days a week. On the 4 days I work dogs will have a potty break after 6-7 hrs. Generally off on Saturday and Sunday. I have a fenced in yard with a fur baby of my own to keep yours company amd 2 teenagers who love to help out and spoil your four legged bestie even more. I require you bring a crate but I can provide one for a small fee. We love the outdoors in the summer, so lots of exercise for your fur baby At this time I can only care for hypoallergenic breeds in my home. I can walk and do drop ins with any breed. Feel free to inquire if you are unsure.

This was our first time using Rover and Katherine was amazingly patient when answering all my questions about what we should expect. Unfortunately during the stay, one of our dogs had a difficult time adjusting, but Katherine did everything she could to ease her anxiety and make her comfortable. By the end of the weekend, there was quite a bit of improvement for Jessie. They sent pics of them and the dogs having fun which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Madelyn was very flexible and let our pup take his time in warming up. He was so happy to have the kiddos company and he even got a brushing so he didn’t mat from the snow/slush.

It is so nice to be able to go on vacation and have all your concerns about leaving a family member behind alleviated and know their needs will be met. This is how we felt about our Bentley's stay with Ruth. Regular communication and updates regarding his stay were reassuring and comforting. Pictures showed her attention to particulars. His medical needs were attended to and we know he genuinely enjoyed being with Ruth. Thanks so much Ruth for taking great care of our boy! Mary, Nick & Bentley

Thanks Pamela! Duke seemed to have had a wonderful time. Pictures of him playing in the back yard with other dogs were much appreciated. He certainly slept well in the car on the way home! If we are in the area again we will certainly contact you to take care of "old-man" Duke.

FAQs for Boarding - Allendale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Allendale on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 517 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Allendale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

91% of Allendale sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Allendale landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Allendale 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 Allendale.

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.

You and your Allendale 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.
