About: We’ve loved and cared for animals our entire lives and have years of hands-on experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and physical needs. That lifelong experience helped us create a home designed specifically for dogs’ safety and comfort, where we care for only one pup at a time so we can give them our full attention. With a fenced yard, lots of supervision, and very little time spent alone, your dog will enjoy a calm, loving environment filled with playtime, cuddles, and personalized care. Our daily routine is built around the dogs in our care. One of us is home most of the day, so your pup will have very little, if any, time alone. We provide regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time in our fenced yard, play sessions, walks (if that’s part of their routine), and plenty of cuddle and relax time throughout the day. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, and medication schedule so their stay feels familiar, comfortable, and stress-free. We offer a calm, safe, and loving home for your dog while you’re away. We intentionally care for only one dog at a time, so your pup gets our full attention and a peaceful, stress-free stay (no crowded doggy sleepovers here!).
“Erin was absolutely incredible. We were in Ann Arbor for my niece's surgery and we suddenly needed to book a last-minute doggy day care for our Luna. Erin responded so quickly and offered to watch our dog. She lives in a great, quiet neighborhood and has two dogs that she let Luna play with! Erin was so kind, sent so many updates, and was just such a blessing to have for the few days we needed doggy day care. We trust our dog with Erin 100% and highly recommend her as a sitter - she's fantastic, responds immediately, provides great updates, and is an overall fantastic person! 10/10!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I grew up on a dairy goat farm. All sorts of dogs, horses, cats, cows, goats, etc. I have had Chihuahuas all the way through German Shepherds. Puppy age all the way through their whole lives. I am the biggest animal (especially dog) lover! I love meeting new personalities. I would spend 24/7 lounging around with my dogs & cats if I could!🩷 I currently have a 16 year old Minature Schnauzer, and an under 1 year old Goldendoodle. My old girl currently takes quite a few medications and likes her alone time. My little man loves to play, be active, and requires hands on often. Therefore, I work with a spectrum of needs. I will make sure your baby has all the play time (or alone/rest time) they need!🩷 I am a professional MMA fighter & bar tend on the weekends! Most of my job consists of being at the gym just a couple hours at a time. And I live 5 minutes away from where I train! It makes spending time with & caring for pets easy and frequent. I only bar tend two days on the weekend (and my boyfriend is home most of that time too 😁 ) Home visits 🏡: In my client’s homes, I can easily care for your pets however you need. I will play games with your furry friends, lounge around with them, etc. I am a very active person & love taking long walks myself, so I would love to do that with your dog if you’d like! I am a reliable, very detail oriented gal. Whatever instructions you leave, I’ll get them done. I love when my clients can come back to a clean, comfortable space after caring for their fur babies. Boarding 🐶: I have a fenced in back yard on a quieter side street. We have an older Miniature Schnauzer, under 1 year old Goldendoodle, and two gentle, quiet cats that lounge around (pretty much keeping to themselves) 🩷 I have plenty of space in my living area to have the zoomies. I have a spare room to give your pet some rest and seclusion too! That means I also have ample room to crate your doggie, if needed. We would love to have your best friend come hang with us 🙂
“Dena and her family did a great job with Biscuit. She was happy and content when I picked her up. It is clear that they provided her with loving care. We will definitely be back.”
“We used Jaime for the first time this week. Jaime was great with our youngest, who takes a little time to warm up to new people and new dogs. She is very patient, and her dog Flint was a great companion for our 2 Spinoni. We would highly recommend Jaime for daycare.”
About: I have experience pet sitting for 20 years. I am familiar with dogs that require medication and can also administer insulin to non aggressive dogs if needed I work from home full time and can provide daily walks multiple times a day based on your dogs needs, frequent potty breaks, belly rubs, treats, and endless love to your dog. I own a home with a fenced in yard. I have three children between the ages of 8-13. I have yellow lab that’s approximately 2 years old and a 5 year old female Keeshond.
“I couldn’t possibly be happier with my dog’s experience at Teresa’s home. From our meet and greet a few days ago to daycare today, Teresa has been nothing but kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming to my dog and my family. Her dogs were a great mix of playful and chill - my pup is worn out this evening, haha. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I thought about daycare for my new rescue dog. Many more playdates to come. 🙂 It’s so comforting knowing she was in excellent hands.”
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and have always loved being around them. Over the years, I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors care for their dogs—whether that meant daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or watching them in my own home. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and currently don’t have any pets of my own, so your dog will have my full attention. I treat every dog like they’re my own and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests, recurring walks, and longer stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and can adjust to your dog’s routine as needed. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and make sure dogs are always supervised while outside. I currently don’t have other pets in my home, so your dog will have a calm environment and my full attention. I also have reliable transportation and can safely transport dogs if needed. While I don’t keep a crate on hand, I’m happy to accommodate one if you provide it and can easily transport it when necessary.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and now have an 8-year-old Golden Retriever. He’s getting a little older but we still enjoy walks around the neighborhood and running around the yard. We like having dog guests to hang out with. I’ve watched dogs for friends and family over the years and enjoy having them around the house. I only host one dog at a time (or multiple dogs from the same family). I can provide daycare and overnight stays in my home. Can be flexible with start and end times and can include pick-up or drop-off, if near by. Your dog’s safety and comfort are the priority here. I only take one dog at a time (or multiple from the same family) to ensure a relaxed environment for the dogs and for me. I work from home, so the dogs are rarely left alone, and they’ll have regular access to a fenced yard, walks, and time to relax inside. I try to keep things low-stress and stick to your dog’s normal routine as much as possible, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, crate preferences, or exercise needs. My dog is friendly, and comfortable around other dogs, but I always prefer slow introductions to make sure we'll be a good match. I’m happy to send updates and photos during your dog’s stay so you know how they're doing
“Anthony is flexible with scheduling and accommodates last minute day care request. He has decent sized fenced yard where dogs enjoy playing with each other and that surely tire them out 😊”
“Jen was so amazing with our golden retriever, she was super accommodating and attentive to his individual needs. She was also very communicative and provided photos of his stay, which was great. Would absolutely recommend her to others!”
“Concise Review for Aaron and Family Aaron and his family took excellent care of Koda—accommodating, attentive, and genuinely loving. It felt like she was part of their own family. We’re definitely returning and highly recommend them for anyone seeking a trustworthy, comforting home for their pet. Thank you for everything!”
“Monica and Razvan are the best!! My pup, Oakley, is a bit shy and they were incredibly patient and kind. Soon enough he was running around like it was hit own home!! They asked helpful questions when we first met and it was evident that they really got to know him and his personality throughout his stay. Plus, he was super tired and happy when he came home. We can’t wait to book another stay!!!”
About: I grew up around dogs all my life. I am confident with all dog sizes large and small. Dogs gravitate to me. I can sit or play or walk with any dog. Right now I have no dog of my own, but would love to share in the care of yours. Dogs are naturally migratory animals and I would love to spend time moving forward walking with your family member. I allow dogs to get to know me and win their trust with me at the dogs pace. The will have a calm confident caregiver to spend time with them.
“Panda came back so-o-o relaxed and happy from Laura and Manuel's. (He was happy to go there, and in no big hurry to come home!) Good amount of feedback of how he spent his day and how he behaved. Their dogs are such a sweet little dog pack for any pup to join! And Laura is so good at putting anxious dogs at ease.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets including cats and dogs for about 3 years now, not including the cats and dogs I grew up with! I currently have a cat who loves cuddles and going on walks in his stroller! I currently work fully remote so I’ll have a lot of free time to tend to and play with your pet! I go on daily walks, perfect to give your pet time to stretch and get some fresh air I have ample space for pets to roam and play in my home. There’s also space to crate your pet if preferred. There is a walking path right outside my door that we can use for walks and potty *I walk cats as well! - in stroller*

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brighton
I was very skeptical at first about using a dog sitter. My kids had always been the ones to watch her. Circumstances would not let this be possible at time. Speaking with Kelli on the phone reassured me that this would probably be OK. We went for a meet and greet and it went over spectacularly. Shiloh is a sweet dog and she gets along with pretty much anyone. Including cats, dogs and chickens. I can’t say enough good things about Kelli and her family. That girls seem to love Shiloh as much as she loved being with them. I love the pictures that she sent to me and it showed my dog being very happy and content Kelli nothing but nice things to say about her and you could tell that they really liked her a lot. I think Shiloh will miss them as much as they will miss her. I would also definitely not hesitate to use Kelli services in the near future. If need be I would highly recommend her to anyone that needed to have their pet watch by Kelli. Thank you Kelli for taking such a great care of my sweet girl.

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 Brighton 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 dog, 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.
