“Tory was great!!! Buster had a great experience. Tory sent a lot of photos of Buster playing with other dogs. Would recommend and planning on using her again in the future!!”
“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!”
“Amanda has been awesome for my sweet doggy Shiloh! She’s so flexible with scheduling which I absolutely love, updates with pictures daily of your fur baby playing or enjoying a walk! My Shiloh girl is very energetic and comes home at the end of the day EXHAUSTED from playing all day which was never the case before day care. We’re thankful for Amanda!”
“Iris & Tomas helped watch our dog while we attended a pet first aid/CPR class nearby. This was our first time having anyone watch her, so we were a little nervous. They were able to squeeze us in last minute and do a meet and greet. They sent us many photos and played with her and kept her occupied until we could pick her up. We would definitely request them again if needed!”
“Vanessa was great with my puppy! She accepted a last minute booking on Thanksgiving and showed my pup a great time. He came home tired and happy. She communicated well and sent updates throughout the day. Would book again.”
“Karen is helping me positively acclimate my foster dog to staying away from our home. She has been very attentive and I appreciate the time she has taken to get to know Lady and make her as comfortable as possible. We’re working up to longer stays and so far, so good - I think Lady can tell that Karen is truly a dog lover!”
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.
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Oaklynn! She had a great day!! I am so glad she made new friends and had all sorts of toys to play with. We will see you again soon!!”
“Stacy is great, Lena has been in her home 3 times already and each time she keeps us updated with pics and messages. She has attention to details and allows us to feel that our fur baby is taken care of while we are out. Lena and JJ (her pup) bonded which is also nice as they can play and burn energy together lol! I am very thankful for people like Stacy that take seriously the responsibility of taking care of our fur babies. Highly recommend her 🙌🏻”
About: I’ve always had an animal in my household at some point I had 21 cats in my home and I took care of them until they got older but now I live on my own with my cat named miso soup :) I have a whole open schedule, I’m a stay at home gf and I’ve been wanting something to do during all the free time I have, and I like going for walks so it works for me to have a reason to go for a walk I have a shy cat, that doesn’t bite or scratch, and I have a whole empty living room and tons of space for animals to walk around I like keeping my house tidy, we are a none smoking home and we don’t have any children in the home I’m on the second floor but there is lots of grass in my area for walking and exploring
“Carolina was so nice! She was super flexible with me as I was in a rush dropping off my pup. I got plenty of updates and photos throughout the evening. I would definitely rebook with her again!”
“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!”
“Erin is great! My dog has separation anxiety so I was nervous about leaving him for the full day, but he did wonderful with Erin. She texted me throghout the day to let me know he was doing well. He also had other dogs to play with, which is great to get his energy out and keep him socialized. My dog had a great time and slept great that night! :) I will definintely be booking more days with Erin.”
“Amazing communicator and provided constant updates and photos. I felt incredibly comfortable leaving our little guy with them. I will absolutely use again and enthusiastically recommend to other pet owners!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 627 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Armada. 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 Armada 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 627 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. 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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
