“My dog Sky did amazing at Anne's relaxing home. Anne provided pictures and updates often. Sky was very comfortable in the care of Anne. I would not hesitate to use Anne again.”
“Ariana was amazing once more! We were out of town for an extended period of time (13 days) and she provided updates the whole way through. I felt that she was able to give our dog attention and make him feel right at home. When I came to pick him up, he was in a very happy mood! Would highly recommend and would book again in a heartbeat.”
“Natiely is a loving and compassionate person. She was incredibly conscientious and caring with my senior dog, Toby. She closely monitored his adjustment and responded appropriately, often putting techniques she had learned into practice to help Toby feel more comfortable and build trust with her. Her attentiveness and patience allowed Toby to relax and feel at ease much more quickly than usual, which, in turn, gave me tremendous peace of mind. I truly appreciated the care and understanding she showed toward him.”
“Lauren and Cris provide the best pet care any owner could hope for! I was out of town for 10 days, and they made sure my boy had so much fun, snuggles, and even threw him the best birthday party complete with toys and treats. They truly love him, and I love trusting them!!”
“Amy did great with Figs. she paid attention to how he reacted with dongdong, and made good modifications. she fed him well and did great with playing and sending cool pics of figgy lounging! love it!”
“Monica & Razvan took excellent care of our dog. He is an older dog (15 years) and needed lots of extra attention. They kept us informed with pictures and texts so we could keep tabs on how his stay was going. They made sure he got plenty of walks and playtime in their backyard. They are both very knowledgeable regarding the care of dogs. I would highly recommend their services.”
“Marija was wonderful with Angel! He can be timid around other dogs, but she kept a close eye on him until he was comfortable playing with the other pups. Her large fenced yard is a dog’s paradise. When my vacation got unexpectedly extended, Marija reassured me that Angel was safe and that she would have no problem keeping him until I was able to return. Overall, an excellent experience!”
“JoAnn has done an amazing job caring for our dog for several days. Joann sends photos, updates on our dog’s day, and has been very caring to her. We highly recommend JoAnn.”
“Laura & Manuel were great! We were out of the country for 10 days and they were sure to send pictures every few days to let us know our Moose was settled in and going great at his "vacation family" home. They had us do a meet and greet prior to his stay and ensured he would be a good fit in their home. If we ever need somewhere to send Moose for a night away or another vacation, they will be our number one pick!”
“Callie always has a great time at Heather's and is well cared for. Heather is flexible with minor adjustments to the pick up and drop off times based on changes in our travel plans and is quick to respond to any questions we have.”
“Amy was wonderful. She was great with communication and confirming our care routines. We had many updates and pics of Wuzzy and her mini-adventures. Our pup came back to us super happy, like she had gotten a vacation too. Would definitely book again.”
“Katie kept us up to date on how Pumpkin was doing. Dog was relaxed and happy upon her return home and in all the pictures sent. Communication was great. We have another booking later this summer.”
“Holly was an absolute gem when watching our fur baby over the weekend! She made us feel comfortable and was very welcoming when we arrived! We could tell from the moment we met her that she loves and cherishes animals and our dog would be in great hands! Our puppers is our baby, so we are very picky when it comes to who will watch him when we need to travel. Holly exceeded any and all expectations and took amazing care of our fur baby! Thank you Holly for watching Benny and for treating him as one of your own, we can’t thank you enough!!”
“Our dog had a good stay with Laura. She provided update photos of how he was doing and fed him on schedule. He seemed happy and well-taken care of on his return.”
“Melissa was a great sitter for our dog Dusty. She sent pictures and kept us updated. She was flexible when we ended up being later than expected for pick-up. I'm sure Dusty had a great time and we felt comfortable leaving her in good hands. I would definitely call on her services again if and when the time comes.”
“Mary and Skip are wonderful and caring dog sitters! Jojo loves spending time with them. They give her so much love and attention. We always feel confident that she is well taken care of.”

Caroline was wonderful. She was able to watch my two dogs last minute for a week when other arrangements fell through and the boys enjoyed their time there. She is always responsive and the updates throughout the day put my mind at ease. She has my highest recommendations!
Zachary was great for the whole experience! It was the first time boarding our new dog, and Zachary came out to meet us and Pepper, answered questions we had, and Pepper seems like he had a great time! Zachary sent pics during our trip, and was fast and easy to communicate with, both leading up to the boarding dates and while we were away. Highly recommend!

There are 904 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dexter. About 93% of Dexter 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.
