“Grateful and Thankful for the ability to board my dog Jasper with Kristopher and his family! Jasper stayed with them over these past two holidays for an extended period of days and was always very relaxed and calm when picked up. Jasper had the ability to spend time outdoors frequently and would go with their kids doing chores and was assimilated into their daily activities. A great sign of a good boarder is the stress free pet you come back to! Thanks Kristopher and crew for such great care!”
“Always a great experience leaving our Golden with Emily! Great communication, updates and pictures throughout our trips. They treat him like one of the family. Couldn't ask for a better experience. Happy to have found someone close to home to make our travels a little less stressful.”
“Christine and her crew were incredible and did a great job. Thor came home exhausted and without any bad habits (begging from the table, attempting to get on furniture, etc). Great communication before and throughout the stay. Thor loved his time with Cornelius and is looking forward to his next visit.”
“Alexandra did a perfect job sitting for my pet. She made my dog feel right at home, kept me updated throughout her stay, and was very accommodating and flexible. Would happily have my pet stay again!”
“Averi took great care of my Remy boy! She is a kind and thoughtful sitter and very easy to communicate with. She sent pictures during Remy’s stay at her home and assured me he was happy and well taken care of. Prior to Remy’s overnight stay, we met up for a meet and greet. Averi listened to my explanations of Remy’s needs and had no issues understanding and managing his anxiety and reactivity. She made me feel at ease. We will definitely be reaching out again!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young and have experience taking care of a variety of breeds. We have a safe, caring environment for pups that will make them feel like they are at home! My husband works from home during the week, and at least one of us is home on the weekends. We have flexible schedules that fit with a variety of pet care needs. We have a Shih Tzu, Woodson, that stays on our main floor with us most times. We do not have a fenced in yard, so we let him out on a leash. We live in a small neighborhood with little traffic. It is ideal for taking dogs on walks, and our neighbors either leash their dogs or have electric fences. Very safe!
“This was our pups’ second time staying with Dan and Kelly, and we couldn’t be happier with their stay. Dan and Kelly are communicative and accommodating, and we really appreciate them!”
“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.”
“We left our pug with Sherri and her family and were so happy we did! Sherri took exceptional care of our pet and we could tell that she was in such good hands. I highly recommend Sherri. She was exceedingly conscientious and caring and Junebug came back to us happy and healthy!!”
“Blue had a great time with Dale and his dogs. His communication with us was great from the start, sending updates everyday of his stay. Made us feel comfortable from the first meet and greet. Will be booking with him again!”
“Janelle was fantastic and knows how hard it is to leave behind your family member. She was very reassuring and sent us photos and wonderful messages everyday. We could not have asked for a better caretaker for our pup!! She had fun adventures with their dogs and got plenty of play time outdoors. Janelle went above and beyond and helped ensure all things went smoothly. We are so grateful for the care she gave our dog and we couldn’t be happier!”
“Wow, Marissa is the best. We got photos frequently and reports of how our furry friend was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with our crazy work schedules. Best sitter ever!”
“Felix has some of that 'dog whisper' magic. He was generous with sharing his home and love while watching our dog. We can tell our dog felt secure and relaxed while under his care and had some fun of his own while we were away.”
“Laura and her husband came through again! On Frieda’s second stay, she hopped right out of the car and moseyed happily up to the door without hesitation, a clear sign she felt comfortable and safe. If she hadn’t, we know she would have stayed put in the car. The photo updates showed the same story: a happy, smiling Frieda. I really appreciate Laura and Mark’s flexibility and their willingness to welcome her back on short notice.”
“Uncle Terry and Aunt Chuckie are the best pet sitters. My YorkiePoo, Jamaica loves them and I am very appreciative. They are warm, welcoming, and very loving. He requires a great deal of attention and interaction which they happily provide. They are also very flexible with my travel schedule which is a tremendous blessing to me. I am so very thankful for the love and care they provide Jamaica on a weekly basis. I highly recommend their services.”
“We were SO pleased with how Erin and Brian took care of Willow! Even with little quirks that Willow had, they were willing to adjust to make her comfortable. We would highly recommend them to watch your fur babies.”
“I've written a few great reviews about Jenn but this last stay she really went above and beyond. Due to some winter storms and travel complications I was delayed 21 hours coming home from a short business trip. While my time stuck in an airport was anxiety inducing wondering whether or not Piper was okay was not one of the factors. Not only did I know Piper was happy and safe where she was but Jenn was very responding and completely understanding. I'm so glad we've found Jenn through Rover - Piper's home away from home!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Alto on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 479 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Alto. 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.
92% of Alto 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 Alto 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 Alto 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 Alto.
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 Alto 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.
