“Wonderful overnight stay with Shashank and his pup. He is so great at dog training and anticipating our dog’s emotions and needs. We were fully happy and anxiety-free leaving our dog in Shashank’s trusted hands. One of the BEST rover homes (and we have tried a dozen!)”
“Cody and Byron were absolutely amazing! We had 2 little dogs, a 16 year old yorkie and a 6 year old chihuahua. Our older pup is needy and the figured him out right away. The dogs absolutely loved the outdoor space and we have lots of pictures of them cuddled on the couch with blankets. They stayed for 8 days which I have never left them for that long before. Cody and Byron made them feel at home and made us feel comfortable and confident for the entire time. I would definitely use them again!”
“Mariana and Denys were wonderful with our high-energy pooch! They were quick to respond and we could tell she was well cared for. We would definitely recommend and hope to use their services again!”
“Katie and Kristen were so attentive to Ziggy. They sent alot of pictures, and we could tell Ziggy was getting such great care. Ziggy is normally so happy to come home, but this time we think she kinda missed being at their house!!! Thank you Katie and Kristen!”
“Zachary was fantastic hosting Spooky for an extended stay. He was very patient with Spooky building up his confidence in his temporary home and sent lots of photos and updates about how he was doing. I can tell from the photos Spooky became quite comfortable with Zachary and in his house. I would definitely request Zachary watch Spooky again.”
“Mina did a fantastic job with Beau. His 4 night stay went very well and he had plenty of dog-friends to keep him company. Beau enjoyed the fenced back yard and walks. Mina does a great job of keeping us updated and sending pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Deans did an amazing of job of taking care of our pup. Thank you for keeping us updated along the way. Will definitely give her a call next time we need to go out of town. I think our boy was sad to have left Shaggy.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased about the care my dog received staying at Oscar’s home. It gave me great peace of mind getting the photos and videos every day I was away, and I brought home such a calm & happy girl who had the time of her life playing with other dogs in the big backyard. Highly recommend and will definitely rebook!”
“Kelly and Brandon are fantastic sitters - I couldn’t ask for them to do anything differently. My pup was safe, well cared for, and tired out by all the fun she was having.”
“Reneé was great with Lily for a short overnight stay! She took lots of cute photos of her. She even squeezed in a quick walk before our pickup time. Lily will be back!”
“Another wonderful stay for Henry! So good we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home! 😂. Karen is living, spoils him, and sends us at least a picture a day! We are so lucky to have found her! Thank you Karen!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Elizabeth while I was away for a family wedding. From the moment we connected, she was incredibly friendly, kind, and accommodating. She took wonderful care of my doggy, making sure he felt loved, safe, and happy in my absence. Elizabeth kept me updated with sweet photos and messages, which truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she treated my dog like one of her own. I’m so grateful for her care and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a warm and reliable sitter. Thank you, Elizabeth! 🐾💛”
“I had a great experience! She was kind, professional, and took excellent care of Gerald. She sent regular photo updates and even kept him a bit longer than originally planned, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
About: My 2 daughters and I are an animal-loving home. We have 2 playful cocker spaniel mixes, 3 dog-friendly cats, and 3 horses (at a barn). I work from home, so can provide constant companionship and supervision. My girls are also home for the summer and love playing with all animals. Our yard is over an acre with an invisible fence. I can provide a dog runner line, a long tie-out, or take your dog out on a leash. I can provide daily walks, including to our neighborhood pond if your dog likes the water. I am happy to accommodate any reasonable pet care requests, whatever they may be. I just ask that your dog be vaccinated and friendly with other dogs and kids.
“Ariana and Yogi are perfect for boarding my Pfeifer. The three of them always look like they are having such a good time. Yogi and Pfeifer must run and jump all day as Pfeifer slept the entire 2+ hour ride home. Photos are shared throughout the stay. Excellent companionship and human attention in a glorious fenced in yard. First choice for Ann Arbor boarding needs.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Chelsea is $45

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Chelsea
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Chelsea on Rover is $31.89 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 709 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Chelsea. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
99% of Chelsea sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Chelsea landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Chelsea 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 Chelsea.
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 Chelsea 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.
