“Joni is absolutely the BEST! I have a 6 year old Australian Cattle Dog that loves constant attention. I’ve tried traditional boarding in the past at a “pet retreat” but my dog does not typically get along well with other dogs even though I’ve socialized him with training classes, walks, and with other dogs visiting the house. I was worried about leaving my dog for a week since he can’t be with other dogs but Joni handled it with no issues! Joni offered a meet and greet for my dog to get acclimated with her home and a few treats to entice him back. Communication was frequent while I was out of town and Joni even provided pictures. Bottom line, you can’t find anyone better than Joni to care for your dog and I will be booking with Joni in the future!”
“I can’t say enough good things. I received daily updates with pictures/videos and I could tell my dog was getting loved on like he was her own. We recently rescued a puppy from a hoarding situation and he is very shy/timid so I was so nervous about leaving him for an entire week when we had to leave town. Within 1-2 days he came out of his shell with Desirae and her family and had the best time playing with her dogs and getting loved on. I’ve now found my go-to dog sitter when we need to go out of town. Would highly recommend.”
“Highly recommend! She took the stress of leaving your dog with strangers away right away. We did an initial meet and greet before confirming the booking. I didnt know what I was doing it was my first using the app and booking a service. She guided me on how to do it and honored the original price which was wrong. I dropped Davenchi off in the evening and I expected I wouldn't hear from Holly until the next day but she started updating me right away. I was able to rest easy the first night because she sent pics and let me know how he was adjusting. Everyday after that I got morning and evening updates with pics and sometimes midday updates if he made new friends or did something special. She even trained him a lil bit for me Hes a 4 month old puppy. Nothing but great things to say. The paw pedicures he received really won me over!”
“Martha was very personable in our arrangement. She sent several messages to let us know how our Gabbi was doing. We've got a real spoiled dog and she wasn't used to being away, but Martha allowed her to sleep with her to keep her calm. That was much appreciated.”
“Maverick had a blast and was well taken care of!! We loved getting picture updates!! Maverick has separation anxiety and tends to not eat while away from home but he did eat and had a great time!! He came home a tired pup which for him is good.”
“My little dogs ADORE Victoria and Rishi. I trave for work and I am so glad to know that my little buddies have a loving place to stay while I need to be away. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”
“Great sitters. My dogs very energetic and demanding when it comes to attention. They kept me updated and helped me out in a pinch with a last minute stay. Will be my go to for pup sitting!”
“Nico had a great time with Marty and her family. She was attentive and gave me updates everyday which was very nice. Her house was also very clean and I felt safe leaving my pup with her. Will definitely recommend her and already thinking of using her service for my future travels”
“Toni was very nice and accommodating. I booked relatively last minute after my normal dog sitter wasn't available, she got back to me relatively quickly and helped put my mind at ease leaving my elderly dog with someone new.”
“Jessica was terrific! I received helpful updates and photos about how my dog was doing during his stay. There was a safe and spacious backyard with other dogs to play with during his stay. And he had cozy sleeping quarters inside.”
“One issue - Stella was wayyyyyy too spoiled! We felt very comfortable with Michelle and she communicated well from the first meet and greet to the week long stay. You can tell she truly loves animals and we will use her again. Thanks for making her feel at home and we also appreciate the fact that there is only one client at a time.”
“Amazing environment. My dog has lots of room to run around as well as another playful dog so he was always active. Kimberly sent lots of pictures and my dog looked happy in every one of them.”
“Sara and John Patrick took exceptional care of our senior girl. We received regular updates with photos of how she was doing and all of the love she was getting from the family. We are always hesitant to leave her with someone who isn't family, especially as she has gotten older, but we had no concerns after dropping her off. We will highly recommend them to friends and hope to rebook with them when the need arises.”
“Alisha was amazing to work with! She took great care of my dog, Ruger, and kept me updated the whole time. I received lots of cute pictures of Ruger and her dog, Bella, playing together. She has a big fenced in backyard which gave Ruger lots of opportunities to get in his exercise and to play with Bella. I highly recommend Alisha to look after your fur baby and I will definitely be taking Ruger to her again if I need a sitter.”
“We live about 4 hours away in the UP. A family engagement brought us down to the Lansing area, but our accommodations did not allow for our dog. Jordan came with high reviews and was super flexible about a late night drop off and an early morning pickup. We weren't sure how Loki would behave since he has a lot of separation anxiety and this was his first time away from family for two nights. But Jordan was very kind and by the end Loki started to warm up to him. The update and photo put our minds at ease. We would definitely book with Jordan again the next time we are in the area.”
“Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.”
“A lovely couple who cared and loved my little dude as much as I do. Very quick to respond and given updates, photo and videos of my kitten was very reassuring, and had great advice on how to manage him alone. Lovely experience 10/10”

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 Chapin 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 Chapin.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Chapin 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.
