“Winston came home a happy dog! He was well cared for. They loved all of his quirky habits. Having him stay at a place where he was comfortable allowed us to have more fun on our vacation.”
“Ted, was amazing — he watched Odin for us on very short and we couldn’t have asked for better care. We’ve gotten to know him and his dog Maizey in the neighborhood over time (Maizey’s always so friendly with other dogs!), and he’s just a genuinely kind person. He took Odin on regular walks, sent us photos throughout the stay, and kept us updated the whole time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing a trustworthy, attentive sitter!”
“Annette was AMAZING with our dog! We were a little hesitant leaving her for a week, but Annette and her dog Ethel soon made us very comfortable with being gone! We received many pictures and updates throughout the week!! Our girl looked so happy and well taken care of! Annette made such an effort to make sure our dog felt loved while we were gone - and it showed!! We will definitely be using Annette again in the future!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving Rosie with Lyndsey and Justin for vacation. They were close to home, took one dog at a time, and gave us updates and cute pictures. Thank you very much!”
“This was our first time having Lia & Jonathan watch our dog, Ringo. His stay at their home exceeded our expectations. Ringo had a great time on their large property and went for walks regularly. There was daily communication with photos and videos so we could see how he was doing. It was a great immersive experience for him playing with the other dogs for the week, and he's definitely tired... in a good way! We have already rebooked!”
“Bella recieved excellent care during her stay enjoying walks and company of other pets. Annmarie was able to get Bella settled in comfortably and kept us updated. Highly recommended and Bella has now found a second home.”
“Kristen is a 5-star sitter! As a first-time user and owner of a nervous Golden Retriever, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. They were communicative, caring, and made Katz feel comfortable immediately. Highly recommend for anyone with a “shy or anxious pup!"”
“Couldnt be happier with love and care provided to our Daisy. Daily pics/ videos of both playing in yard and quiet time put our mind at ease. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Amanda was great at taking care of Hope. Communication was awesome, keeping me updated with photos and videos and she always responded super quick. I would definitely recommend her!”
“At this point, I am worried our puppy loves Elaine more than us. Upon arrival, he ran inside her house without looking back. We couldn't even say goodbye because he was very excited to be there. We are happy that he loves being there, spending time with Elaine and her family.”
“Amazing, definitely highly recommend. Our dog and cat are very social and need a lot of attention and they were very happy and comfortable from the start. Very responsive, friendly, provided a lot of updates and pictures. We found our go to for any future need for watching our pets.”
“Mack had a great time with April and her family. Pictures were sent each day that put smiles on our faces. Mack totally enjoyed his new canine friends, Ginger and Piper and is looking forward to a return visit. We will definitely be using April again! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great place for their furry friend.”
“Simon was part of their family for a week and that made us very happy. Thea shared pictures of him feeling right at home! We would highly recommend her to everyone who believes their dogs are part of their family!”
“Rachel and her family did an amazing job watching Drake while I was out of town! He had a blast, they took the best care of him, she communicated great and sent plenty of pictures while I was away. Highly recommend and I will definitely be booking with her again next time I go out of town!”
“Shivambika was very responsive when our dog was with her for three days. We received updates daily and our dog was very well taken care of. Will definitely use her again for future trips!”
“Coryn did a wonderful job watching Ebony. They were reliable, communicative, and took great care of her. I felt comfortable knowing Ebony was in good hands, and I would gladly book with them again.”
“We would definitely recommend! I really appreciated the communication we received during booking and later the communication + photos we received during Charlie’s overnight stay. It helped us feel reassured he was in good hands. In all the pics he seemed like he was having a great time. Drop off and pick up was also very smooth. I’ll definitely book again in the future when we need help with dog sitting.”
About: To be completely honest, our home operates on a strict policy of maximum fun and zero boredom. My Belgian Shepherd is are high-energy, Olympic-level players, meaning your fur baby will always have a partner for zoomies, tug-of-war, or aggressive backyard scouting. For the Energetic Pups We run, jump, and play until they forget what a couch even looks like. & If your dog prefers to just watch the chaos from a comfortable distance, they will be showered with endless belly rubs, ear scratches, and VIP treatment ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Whether they are here for daycare or an overnight boarding sleepover, I promise to treat your dog like absolute royalty (and send you plenty of goofy photo updates to prove it). Book a stay and let the fun begin! ❤️ I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays. Summer times the balcony door stays open so theyre free to come in and out. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog with frequent potty breaks per your request, just inform me before hand.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkston
Annette watched my dog Daisy for 3 days and 2 nights in her home, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Daisy has a lot of anxiety, and Annette went out of her way to make her feel safe and comfortable. She gave Daisy plenty of cuddles, took her on walks, and was very patient and caring throughout the stay. Annette also has a very sweet dog named Ethel, and Daisy really enjoyed playing with her, which helped Daisy relax and feel more at home. Annette kept me updated during the stay and sent pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It’s clear that Annette genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Yvonne and Bert were great with our 13 year old dog. They made sure she got her meds daily. They stayed in contact with us with pictures and text messages. They have a doggy door that I really didn’t have high hopes for our dog to use, but she did with some coaxing. I would highly recommend Yvonne and Bert. They are definitely dog people and pretty laid back.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Clarkston on Rover is $44.4 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 1,412 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clarkston. 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.
96% of Clarkston 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 Clarkston 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 Clarkston 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 Clarkston.
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 Clarkston 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.
