“My friend and I were traveling through Michigan and I hadn't planned to bring my 15 year old baby because he's never stayed over at a stranger's house, but all of the wonderful reviews of Darla convinced me! We got daily videos and updates of our pups and I felt so safe leaving him there and seeing him cuddled up on the couch and wagging his tail with the other dogs. He obviously loved the big beautiful backyard and even though he's deaf and a bit of an escape artist neither was ever an issue. Would absolutely bring him back if we're in the area again!”
“Beth is amazing! Her home was perfect for our high energy dogs, and they really enjoyed playing with her dog as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to trust my fur babies with. Thank you, Beth!”
“Patty, Thank you very much!! Because of you, I was able to focus on what I needed to do, and knew I didn't have to worry about how my dog was doing. Thank you!”
“We have a 4month old Belgian Malinois and needed a sitter for the night. Rachel took us last minute, with a days notice& took great care of our little guy. We received a few photos, which were absolutely adorable. We saw a big difference between dropping him off at Rachel's and a doggy daycare. We would highly highly recommend her!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with my 16-year-old Chihuahua, Ralph! This was his first time staying with a sitter instead of family or friends, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Ralph did great—even around her two much larger dogs, which was such a relief! Lauren created a calm, safe environment, and her communication was top-notch. I’m so grateful for the care she gave him and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
About: We are life-long dog owners, and understand that dogs are family too! Your dogs would fit right into the pack while you're away and get lots of love. Both adults in the home work from home, so we are able to provide constant care. The fence is gated, so they can come in and out frequently. We have a small daughter, so family-friendly dogs are welcome to be part of the family. We have 2 sweet dogs (a senior GSP and a 1.5 year old cockapoo), a large fenced yard, and a small daughter. We work from home so your dogs are never unattended. If we do leave for a short period of time, they are sectioned into the kitchen where they have access to water, toys, and dog beds.
“She went out of her way to help us this weekend on short notice. She did an amazing job with the dogs and the house. She gave us so much relief knowing the dogs were in such good hands! we are beyond thankful for her help”
“Jamie is a 5 star dog sitter. Her and her family brought our dog, Brodie, in and made him part of their family. She sent pictures and communicated with us daily. Definitely will hire her again.”
“Taylor was fantastic. Our little princess was well cared for, and we enjoyed the photos that were sent to us each day. This was the longest we were away from our pooch and Taylor made us feel like our girl was at summer camp living her best life. 💙”
About: Hello, my name is Lexi. I have cared for dogs (and cats) since I was 12 years old. Dog walking was my first job! I work from home with the flexibility to still care for dogs on the side. I have experience with all breeds and have owned a Rottweiler, lab, and beagle myself. I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. I have personal experience with administering medicine to animals (even when they will do anything in their power to not take it). I also have experience with dogs that have high anxiety and submissive peeing (my sweet lab) and am comfortable with handling aggression depending on the situation. I truly love animals and would treat yours like my own! I am currently working remotely and have a lot of flexibility with my job. I am available for stop in visits and dog walking almost any time. I also offer boarding pets in my own home. Whether you would like to drop off your dog on your way to work so they aren’t alone all day, or you’re going out of the town for the weekend and your fur baby needs a place to stay, I’m available!
“Julie was fantastic from drop off to pick up. She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend that were much appreciated. Our puppy came home happy & tired after a great stay with Julie & her family.”

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.
98% of sitters in Brunswick 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 Brunswick 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 Brunswick.
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.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.
