“Dellisa is the best hands down. Her response time is quick and she constantly send photos and updates of my dog. Also, my dog loves going there and follows her everywhere she goes now.”
“We booked our trip pretty last minute and was very pleased that Alexis was accommodating and was able to watch our two pups (still call them pups even though they're nearly 3 😀). We could not be more pleased with Alexis! Immediately, she showed our pups love and they immediately gravitated to her. They had so much fun running and playing with other dogs in Alexis' spacious back yard. We know this because Alexis was kind enough to send many, many pictures and videos everyday. We looked forward to seeing those pictures/videos everyday. We missed our pups but we feel like we were able to enjoy our trip even more knowing that they were getting plenty of love, care, and attention. We will always choose Alexis whenever we need to go away without our pups!”
“AMAZING!!! We had already scheduled a vacation and I was a bit apprehensive leaving a small puppy but Felisha was absolutely wonderful ?. She sent frequent pictures and updates to keep me from worrying. Ginger has a great time in a home setting that kept her “potty training” on track. I will definitely recommend her and use her again. ?”
About: I have had many different dogs since I was young, mostly larger dogs but a fair share of smaller dogs as well! I have a 15 yer old chihuahua, an 18 year old cat, and we rescued an 8 month old mixed breed dog! I can work with larger stronger dogs and smaller feisty dogs, I can work with high energy, low energy and senior as well! I work full time but would love to for a walk or a visit to your fur babies after my shift or later in the evening and on the weekends! I have a fenced in yard with two dogs and an indoor cat, both dogs are kennel trained and w have an extra kennel for a visitor, if in your home I will follow whatever instructions you leave.
“Coryn was great! She went out of her way to meet with Milagro, and even do a group walk beforehand, to get her comfortable with the transition. She was very accommodating on drop off/pick up as well. Milagro enjoyed her stay very much (especially the trip to the park). Thanks Coryn.”
“I cannot thank Margaret and Tony enough for taking such wonderful care of our Kaia. Not only did Margaret help us last minute but she had the best time with them. She took her on a 4 miles walk every morning and she spent her days exploring their yard and hanging by the pool. We truly appreciate everything and hope that we can have Kaia come stay with you again. With our busy sports schedule it was so wonderful knowing Kaia was with a family who treated her like their own.”
“Anthony is the absolute best! We feel so comfortable leaving her in his care. He sends tons of pictures and always has the dogs out playing. Izzy is always exhausted when she comes home. We wouldn’t leave her with anyone else and I always tell pet parents about him. Thanks again Anthony!”
“Great job watching my dogs for over a week and one short notice! Plenty of pictures and they looked like they were having fun, and comfortable at her home. They both came back exhausted from playing with so many new friends which was great for me after a long vacation!”
“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: I am a Michigan transplant and an animal person with years of experience, including as petsitter, aquarist, veterinarian technician, field scientist, and farmer. I’ve worked with all creatures great and small, and am uniquely qualified to take care of your fish tank, farm animals, and exotic pets. I am also an avid organic gardener and I love to grow my own food. I own a quaint cottage home with a fully fenced yard. All animals are allowed on the furniture so that they can indulge in the comfort they deserve. I love taking quirky puppy pics in beautiful places while on hikes and adventures. Playing is a great way to establish trust and blow off steam, and I try to capture that on camera as much as possible. I am an outdoor enthusiasts, and when I lived out West I regularly offered "adventure" packages for dogs who benefitted from extended hikes. My own dog Velma is famous on the lake for being my paddleboard companion! I would love the opportunity to work with elderly or disabled animals, and am competent administering medications. It would be my pleasure to get to know your dog, cat, chicken, shrimp, goat, bird, hamster, and any other critters in your family! Feel free to contact me for references and resume. Animal - and seasonally, garden - services are my fulltime occupation, so the care of your furry family member is my top priority. Because I work for myself, I am able to adjust my schedule as needed to accommodate my clients' needs. When staying at a client's home, my practice is to leave it cleaner than when I arrived. I value my clients' trust as one of my greatest assets, and can ensure that your home and property will be respected at all times.
“Brenda and her husband were the sweetest people that I’ve had watch over my dog due to my trip getting canceled. She kept my dog and took care of her until I had to get back safely. I highly recommend her. She was extremely kind and caring and sent me a lot of pictures and videos and kept me updated.”
“Sarah took good care of our dog while we were away. She sent regular video updates and I could see how our dog was happily playing with other dogs and running in her backyard which was comforting to see while away. Will be rebooking Sarah’s stay going forward.”
About: Erica and I have always loved & had dogs in our homes ever since we were kids. They were family, & we look forward to treating yours like family too. We have a very flexible with my schedule. We enjoy playing nerf dog, frisbie and fetch with the dogs during the day, and spending restful quiet time with them during the evenings. We have a nice sized fenced in backyard for them to play in, as well as a nice indoor sunroom that I have turned into a doggy indoor play area.
“This was our first time using a pet sitter on Rover, and Christina made the experience wonderful! She was quick and easy to book on semi-short notice. Her communication was great, and she kept us updated throughout the week with pictures of our pup. We will definitely plan to use Christina for all our future pet sitting needs!”
“SHANNON IS AWESOME! I just moved to Michigan so I didn’t know who I could trust to watch my dog. Shannon sent me frequent updates and reassured me that Naya was having a perfectly good time with her! Naya was sad to leave! Will absolutely continue to book Shannon!:)”
“A C was able to accommodate my last minute request to watch Obie and they sent pictures and took really good care of him while we were away. Will definitely book again with them!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Clarkston is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkston
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 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.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Clarkston
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,446 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Clarkston. About 93% of Clarkston sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
