“We have used Rover a couple of times and Reyna was the best!! She gave so many updates and pictures, which made the separation easier!! It’s obvious how much she cares for the dogs she boards. Highly recommend her!!”


“We loved having Rachel take care of our three dogs. They enjoyed her company and everything went great. We would highly recommend Rachel and plan to have her dog sit for us in the future! Thank you Rachel!”
“Great experience! I loved how they checked in and sent photos and videos of George having a good time. Communication was prompt with coordination for drop off/pick up.”

“Felix was a great sitter for Dakota. The open fenced in back yard was great plus there were other dogs for him to play with. Everyone got along! He was walked,fed,and loved. We will definitely be seeing felix again.”

“Our 5 year old pup had a great stay at Caroline’s with Gator 🥰 Caroline was so great to give us updates everyday and Layla was soooo tired on the car ride home which shows how much fun she had. I would recommend and will be rebooking for our next vacation!”

“Thank you Megan for being a wonderful dog sitter for Coco! I was worried about leaving her for the first time and you eased my concerns very quickly on the phone. Appreciate all the pictures and text while we were away. That helped us know she was happy & being well taken care of with walks and snuggle time. I will highly recommend you to my friends & anyone looking for a sweet dog sitter (without pets of her own). Again a huge thank you! We will be in touch in a few weeks to schedule another over night stay for Coco. Karen”

“Our dog had the BEST time at Ashley's! He was there for a week and made new friends; both human and canine. He was well cared for and enjoyed himself immensely. Thank you Ashley.”


“Patty graciously agreed to watch Whiskey on very short notice and I couldn’t have been happier with his stay. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. I know he had a great time and he came home extremely tired from all the fun.”

“Mark and Leah were absolutely wonderful. This was our first time using Rover and they made Pepper feel right at home. Great communication and sent picture updates during her stay. Will definitely be booking with them again!!”

About: Hi, I’m Jessica! I was born and raised in Montague, MI and love everything about it. I have four crazy dogs, four wonderful cats, two guinea pigs, and a 7 year old son. I have 10 years of animal experience, working at two Muskegon County animal shelters and as a vet assistant. I am licensed and insured through my personal business, Muskegon's Poopin Scoopin LLC. With my knowledge, experience, and above all passion; I guarantee the best service possible. I'm currently working part time during the week, so I have extra time to love on your furry friend! I do most of my pet sitting without my son but if you have a pet that loves children, my son would love to join. Your home is my home and I will take care of your home as so. In my home, your pet can have free access to outside with the doggy door. All cats are kept separate from the dogs. All dogs are fed separately. Detailed lists of your pets routine are helpful to ensure each pet is cared for to your expectations.
“Madelyn was great with our dog staying at her house. She is extremely knowledgeable with lots of experience around dogs. She sends photo updates every morning, which we appreciated getting!”

“David provided the best care for our 2 pups! We were away for 2 weeks in which time David kept us updated on the well being of our dogs. He is a conscientious pet care provider 🐾🐾”

About: I’ve been responsible for friends and family’s pets since roughly 16, more recently cats in the last 4 years. Plenty of experience all the way from small skittish beagles to large reactive pit mix’s. The key is patience and that’s one thing I can promise with your pet, understanding and dealing with different breeds, ages, sizes, behaviors and sometimes even disabilities/health concerns (we love em all). Also have experience with cats, all the way to senior cats with disabilities/health concerns (hearing & kidney failure) to fat cats with spicy attitude, I would like to say I have a plethora of different experience to care for your pet. Lastly, I think I would be a great sitter by being patient and simply understanding what pets mean to people! I do work full time in office but have work from home flexibility, as well as I pick my hours so can be available if needed. I prefer boarding on the weekends but can be available during the week! I can be available to let your dog out every 2 hours if needed, as well as give medication, feed them, and play with them as well. I live in a 1BR Deluxe duplex, have half of the first floor house to myself, so ample room for another or two. Do have liter box, as well as enough space for another if needed. As well as enough space for a dog crate and their favorite toys, food and treats :) My young pit mix has plenty of space shared with Gibby my cat, but they always choose to lay on the same bed together !
“Great sitter. Lily was happy and cared for well. Lily raced happily around in her backyard, went for walks, played with her dog, and had some good couch cuddles. I would highly recommend Megan.”

About: Hello! I am a 32 year old dog enthusiast! As an adult with Autism, connecting with Pets has been incredibly natural and rewarding! I have been a dog-parent for four years. I have also helped care for my wife’s senior childhood dog. My wife has 10+ years experience as a Client Care Representative in Veterinary Medicine. I have a passion for dog walking, dog obedience training and dog adventures (like hiking and paddle boarding). I have a flexible work schedule (WFH 3x/week) and would love to be the one you trust to care for your lovely pets! I am a rule follower, reliable and dedicated to the wellbeing and happiness of all animals. I work from home Monday, Thursday and Friday so I am available for drop in dog walks. I have availability on weekends as well. On Tuesday and Thursday, I am available in the morning and the evenings. I have job flexibility during the day, so I can make most times work depending on the day. I strictly adhere to your care standards — I can take your pets on walks, play with them outside, or however your pup likes to engage most! I can crate upon leaving, etc. My dog also has his own bedroom, with a toddler bed, which has been “baby-proofed”, if you prefer a controlled space bigger than a crate. I have a fenced in backyard, as well.
“Remi took such good care of Lizzy during our three day trip! She was easy to communicate with, especially ahead of time to let her know of our dog’s particular needs. She’s got a nice home in a great area for long walks. Some people just truly love dogs and Remi definitely has that energy. I’d work with her again in a heartbeat.”

“Sarah made drop off and pick up smooth and accommodating. Dog was happy at pick up and seemed to have awesome stay and socializing times with other dogs. Sarah will be the first choice the next time we need the dog sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ashland Center home-away-from-home, 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 Ashland Center.
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 Ashland Center 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 , 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 .
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.
