“We have worked with LaTasha multiple times and love having Tiger stay with her! :) He looks so comfortable and we receive great updates and pictures throughout his stay”
“Sogol just watched our senior dog for six nights while we were on vacation. She was extremely helpful from the moment we reached out and kept us informed with messages and photos throughout the stay. She is very personable and warm and has a clear love for animals. We will absolutely use her again in the future!”
“Whitley was amazing!! Otis is an active guy and there were no shortage of action packed adventures. Otis and Whitley's dog Ollie had a fun and became best buddies. Whitely shared updates 2 times daily and I had complete peace of mind! I highly recommend her! We will be back for sure!!”
“Samantha was great! It can be a little nerve-wracking when you need to find a new pet sitter but we could tell Roxy was in good hands with her. Roxy seemed comfortable and happy and Samantha kept us updated and informed during her stay. We would be happy to use Samantha for pet sitting again when the need arises.”
“Sydney took exceptional care of our 7yr. old, mini golden doodle. She is prompt, courteous and wonderfully warm with people and pets alike. From our first meeting, I knew our dog was in great hands, which made our time away relaxing and worry-free. Her communication and photo updates were top-notch throughout the stay. This was our dog's first time staying with Sydney and we look forward to booking with her again!”
“Kayla is trustworthy and super loving with my Bella. Bella comes home happy and even more spoiled. Kayla is accommodating and cautious about your pet while in her care. Recommend her a 1000%.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since the day I was born! Your pup will be in great hands and will get all the cuddles from me and my dog Jett. Besides having a fenced in back yard to play, I live in the safe neighborhood of Huntington Woods and usually take Jett and visiting dogs on walks. I work from home and have plenty of time daily to give your dog attention! I tend to be home most of the time and if for some reason I need to leave, he will be with Jett. Dogs will be cared for like they’re my own. They will receive attention, proper food schedules, and plenty of down time cuddling and relaxing. The fenced in back yard provides an escape for the dogs to run around and play.
“last minute booking but felt super comfortable as mowgli had an amazing experience the last time with angelina and her family! i was so grateful for the picture updates and consistent communication.”
“Maritza and Daniel took care of our dog Asuna while we were on a vacation. My dog Asuna got along with their pug Lupe during the meet and greet and they have a lovely home.”
“I am very thankful for Tanuja for taking my Lucy on a last minute request to board. She was so flexible and very accomodating and it was a very pleasant dealing with her. On the day of boarding she will give constant updates, she will send plenty of pictures (great pics of Lucy together with their cute dog Mochi). Her husband Kumar helps her out with the doggies and they treat your dog like their own. They are not only great dog sitters but also really nice persons. I will definitely have them take care of my Lucy if the need arises . I would highly recommend Tanuja and Kumar (plus Mochi) to take care of your fur baby.”
“This was our second time using Kate for dog sitting and everything was great. She provides pick up and drop off services too which is so helpful and appreciated. Definitely look forward to booking again in the future.”
“Chris and Cass were great! Very patient, kind and flexible. As sweet as our pitbull is, sometimes it’s hard to find a sitter because of the stigma that surrounds the breed. They even had our back when our flight was cancelled multiple times, forcing us to extend our dog’s stay. I’ll definitely be rebooking with them when needed and highly recommend them.”
“Emily, Jason & Larry were excellent hosts!! Upon my request for a sitter, they suggested a meet & greet between our dogs. They were welcoming and caring about insuring the dogs were compatible. We agreed on letting Nanook stay. They were very communicative about what our dog was up to, how he was getting along with Larry and they sent photos too. After the stay we were surprised to have received a thank you note and a personalized treat in our bag. That was such a sweet touch! We would definitely book with Emily & Jason again! Nanook enjoyed his stay with them and Larry!”
“Linda was amazing! She sent daily updates of how our doggie was doing and sent plenty of photos. She was very communicative and conscientious, and you can tell she really loves dogs and is dedicated to providing a great experience for them. Bandit loved his stay at her home!”
“Nathan was absolutely fantastic with our three kitties for their short stay at his house. He was extremely friendly, attentive, and has extensive experience caring for cats. Our cats had a dedicated room at his house with enough space to sleep, play, eat, drink, and a window to look outside. This was our first time having our cats boarded at someone’s house and I was a little nervous beforehand, but instantly felt at ease once meeting Nathan and seeing where the cats would be staying. He also provided plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Overall, very happy with the care and attention our cats received. I would 100% board my cats with Nathan again and recommend him to friends and family!”
“We were so happy with all aspects of working with Rebecca. From communicating with her about our booking, our meet and greet, to the care and love she gave our dog while we were away, everything was easy and wonderful. Rebecca is a gem!”
“Had to leave the country for 12 days and Lindsay accommodated us last minute. I know in my heart that Fuji’s safe and happy when he gets to stay with her. Thank you again!”
“Making the choice to book Vinata, and her family to care for my Cavapoo, Kali, while I was away for a week allowed me to feel at complete peace, and enjoy myself while on vacation, knowing that my baby was being cared for, loved, and "puppy stimulated." Kali, my puppy, just turned one-year-old this year, and I was very anxious, and nervous about taking a trip, and leaving her with a stranger, because I have spent almost every day with her since she became a part of my family. Being a virtual teacher allowed me the chance to get a puppy, which wouldn't have been a possibility if I had to drive into school; however, I had spent every day with her, and even though she is crate-trained, she does have some attachment issues, and is anxious when she is not right next to me. While I was looking for a care-giver for Kali, I mentioned it during a session with my Chiropractor, and she said, "YOU MUST USE VINATA!" and told me some stories about when she's used Vinata, and her family in the past. She was so excited, and genuine as she spoke, and I know how much she loves, and protects her dog (who is also a Cavapoo), and also, she wouldn't let me leave her office until she wrote out Vinata's contact information on a sticky-note for me. LOL! This is how I connected with Vinata, not through Rover. In fact, I was delighted that Vinata was on Rover, because I always use Rover to find care for my pets (two kitties, and now the puppy). Kali had THE BEST TIME! Vinata, her family and I were on a group text, set up by Vinata, so there were three caretakers keeping me posted, sending pictures, videos, and updates throughout the days I was gone, unsolicited. I LOVED THIS! It melted my heart, and kept me peaceful so that I didn't have to worry, and really have time to let go while on vacation. I only texted back when I was moved to, but Vinata said that I need not respond, unless I wanted to. She was always on the other end if I needed her. I also got a video of Kali and her daughter after she returned from school. Kali LOVES kiddos, but I live alone, so I really felt tickled when I saw this, and Kali also had a chance to play with a brother/sister pair of dogs she was also caring for. Kali is a single "child" who hasn't really had the chance to do this; what a bonus! I found my person. The one who can care for my baby while I'm away, which allows me to be able to open up possibilities for travel, work, or just a "puppy-sitter" for a day. I love having Vinata, and her family there for me when I need. I couldn't have been given a greater gift!”

Sydney is wonderful to Gus (my shadow who suffers from separation anxiety) - her dog Bernie is the sweetest and Gus loves his trips to see Sydney and Bernie - Sydney treats Gus like her own, sends us pics and videos and updates and this makes our family getaways so much more enjoyable knowing Gus in in such great care. So grateful to have found her!
i had to find someone who is taking care of my 13y old doggie on a very short notice and found the perfect person! received updates how he is doing and pictures on a regular basis. the way George spoke about cloves showed he cared like it is his own dog. 100% recommended!
From our initial meet and greet, I had no question in my mind that Gabby would be in good hands with Vicki and William and their puppy. Ruby. Vicki's home is super dog friendly and Gabby was made to feel right at home. Vicki sent me photos everyday and I could tell Gabby was comfortable and having fun. Which made me at ease on my vacation knowing there was no need to worry about anything . When I went to pick up Gabby she was in bed and had to be nudged. She was so comfortable she didn't want to leave 🥰 Thank you Vicki. I sure am glad I found you on Rover.
Krystle was so great and patient with my dog Dobby. He was really scared of going down her stairs, and it took over an hour to get him comfortable enough to go up and down with confidence. Krystle was patient and kept a positive attitude the whole time. I cannot thank her enough for being so good to him! Would recommend 10/10.
Susan and her husband Alan are amazing! They took incredible care of our two dogs, gave them so much love & attention and provided tons of cute updates frequently throughout my dogs’ stay. It was so comforting knowing my dogs were in excellent hands! I can’t imagine leaving my pups anywhere else!
"I am so glad I found her to watch Simba! She provided amazing in-home care, took him out for great walks, and sent wonderful photo updates that gave me complete peace of mind. She is incredibly reliable and professional. I felt so relieved knowing Simba was safe and happy in his own home. I will definitely be booking her again!"

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Berkley is $48 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
95% of sitters in Berkley can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Berkley 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 Berkley.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Berkley. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Berkley 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
