“Thank you Karen for taking such great care of Rufus. He seemed like he had a great vacation weekend with you and we really do appreciate it! We hope Rufus was able to entertain you as well! We would be happy to leave him with you again in the future, should the need arise.”
“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of our dog while we were away for a weekend. She was very attentive, sweet, responsive, and provided daily updates. We will definitely have her watch our dog in the future!”
“Oscar was great with our two dogs. He sent several photos every day and provided updates on their activities and behaviors. We look forward to leaving our pets with him again soon.”
“Monica & Razvan did an outstanding job taking care of our 4 legged child. He has been home a few days now and I think he misses his playmate (their dog). Monica & Razvan are dog people and you know what I mean if you are one too, they know how dogs behave and had no issues with my dog. Wonderful people and we will use them again.”
“There is a reason why Catherine is a Star Sitter on Rover, and we experienced that amply while boarding our 5-year-old Husky and 16-year-old senior Bichon with her for three nights. Both our dogs require medicines and special care, and with Catherine, they got it reliably and wholeheartedly. She took the time to understand our care instructions and went above and beyond our expectations. She asked questions, kept us closely posted, and was supported strongly by her husband and family, all avid dog lovers who provided a secure and loving environment for our pets. When we picked up our dogs, they seemed relaxed and happy. We'd rate Catherine higher than five stars if we could!”
“Jennifer was a fantastic pet sitter! She send daily updates on how Maple was doing like sleeping on her lap ❤️, it was reassuring to read how much she and her family cared. Thanks so much for your kindness 😊”
“Kelsey and her family were absolutely amazing while caring for Charlie during my recent work trip! ❤️ From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in great hands. Kelsey kept me updated throughout my trip with messages and lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious Charlie was having a great time and was treated like part of their family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. As a flight attendant, being away from home can be stressful, so knowing Charlie was safe and cared for meant the world to me. Thank you, Kelsey, for taking such wonderful care of my little guy! I truly appreciate everything you and your family did for him. I would absolutely recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and communicative sitter. I won’t hesitate to book with her again in the future!”
“Wow - Anna was an amazing sitter! We were a little nervous leaving our pup (Uki) with a new person, but right from the start, we knew she was in for a great experience. Even before we booked, Anne agreed to have my husband come to her house to allow Uki to get acclimated/make sure it was a good fit. My husband instantly felt at ease with Anne and had no concerns leaving Uki with her. During our vacation, Anne sent us daily photos and *the most adorable* daily status updates on how Uki was doing. She went out of her way to make Uki special treats, accommodate her dietary preferences, allowed her on her sofa, and took her on long walks, and showered her with attention. Honestly, I imagine Uki was a bit sad to leave! We are so grateful to Anne for her attention to our pup and would rebook with her in an instant/recommend her to all our friends. Great first experience with Rover!”
“Rachel and Michael did an amazing job with our injured puppy. We are grateful that they agreed to watch her even after we found out just prior to leaving her that she had an injury and needed special attention. Our puppy needed RX twice per day and could only be let out on a leash. Not only did Rachel lovingly take care of all of this, she also went above and beyond and contacted our vet to make sure our puppy was being taken care of properly. Rachel also took our puppy for multiple daily short walks as recommended by our vet. I highly recommend trusting your animal with Rachel!”
“Marcin was excellent. Extremely happy! He made omelets and jerkey for our dog and sent us pictures of her every day. We would definitely book with Marcin again. Thanks Marcin!!!”
“Heather and her family were great hosts for my dog! He came home happy. It was his first time staying somewhere new and Heather helped us make sure it would be a good fit with a meet and greet before his stay.”
“Erin and her husband took such good care of my girl while I was away. They were accommodating to her needs and sent me regular updates. I'm typically nervous about boarding, but after this experience I have complete faith in Erin and we will be repeat customers. They are also just lovely, warm people 💖”
“Ashley was great with my dog Bruno. Very responsive, sent regular pics, and Bruno seemed happy with his new friend Sprout! Would definitely recommend and rebook in the future. Thanks Ashley!!”
“Mengdongxue (Laura) was great. She took in my two dogs for 4 nights + and made it easy to drop off and pick up. Consistent photos and nice long walks. Felt very safe leaving my dogs there and will 100% utilize her again. Very sweet and good communication.”

Deunna took excellent care of our sweet elderly golden retriever. Our dog is used to being in a family home and needed to be given medicine and treated gently due to arthritis and skin issues. She took the time to understand the special care that our dog needed. I would definitely bring our dog back to Deunna's house.
I have absolutely no words capable to leave a fair review to Natiely. If I say she was amazing it will sound too weak given how perfect her care for Milli was. She truly goes above and beyond to care for your dog, pay attention to details, keeps you updated, understands your best friend's needs and best of all, truly gives love to your furry one. Milli came back happier than when I dropped her, healthier and looking forward to stay again. Best care Milli ever had by far!
This was our first time using Rover for our 13 year-old Beagle mix, Vince. I went away for five days, so I was a little nervous about how Vince would do. Aylin too excellent care of him and sent photos almost everyday so I could see how Vince was settling in. She was very responsive and caring about Vince's little quirks and needs. She was also flexible when my homebound flight arrived early and I asked to change the pre-arranged pick-up time at the last minute All in all, this was a five-star experience and I would confidently leave Vince with Aylin again--in fact, I plan to.
Melissa was wonderful with our dog and took great care of him while we were away traveling. She kept us updated, gave him lots of attention, and made sure he was happy and well cared for. He also loved having a doggie playmate during his stay, which made the experience even better. We came home to a happy pup and would definitely trust Melissa to watch him again!
My dogs stayed with Joseph over the holiday weekend. We got lots of updates during their stay. My one dog has a hard time with fireworks. He made sure she was comfortable and got all the loves and snuggles. My dogs were well loved and cared for during their stay. I would recommend Joseph and would have him watch our dogs again. 😊
Teresa is fantastic! She takes wonderful care of my dog, Winston, and I always know he's in great hands. She's caring, reliable, and truly loves animals. Winston is always happy and well cared for when he's with her. I highly recommend Teresa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!
So glad to have found Katie and Dave! They will definitely be our go-to sitters going forward. Katie asked all the right questions - it is evident that she wants to get to know the pups to be able to give them the best care possible. I appreciated the daily updates/pictures and could tell the dogs were comfortable and happy during their stay. I also appreciated that the home/property was very clean and in a good area for walks! Highly recommend.
We love Marcin! This was our 2nd booking with him and Dexter became excited to see him again. Our dog is typically anxious and has a medicine routine that Marcin has accommodated better than most. He communicates well on longer trips and sends really great pictures.
Ariana was very responsive during our trip planning, and was prepared for us when we arrived. She went over and beyond sending photos and checking in while we were away, and responding promptly when I had questions. This was our first time leaving our dog with someone we didn't know well, and it made a difference to work with someone who had strong communication, and who acted like they genuinely cared for our dog, who is a member of our family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Ann Arbor on Rover is $54.39 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,115 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ann Arbor. About 93% of Ann Arbor sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
