“Monica and Razvan were great host and we will definitely use them again if they are available! They sent us pictures of Ruby every day and kept us updated throughout the stay. We felt comfortable that they had a fenced in yard for play time and a dedicated space for Ruby when it was nap time.”
“Great experience! Appreciated the daily updates. Seems like they were treated like family. Marija’s home and yard is a perfect setting for lots of playing and comfy time.”

“Oliver stayed with JoAnn for 3 days. He had a great time! He loved playing with the Lab, Holly. He cuddled with both JoAnn and her husband and seemed at home and quite comfortable with them. When I went to pick him up, he seemed to want to stay and play. I would definitely leave him there in the future. JoAnn sent regular updates and photos. I could see how comfortable Oliver was and I could relax about him being away from us.”
“Laura was wonderful. She had a fenced yard and two dogs for our dog to play with. She was so understanding when he had some loose stools. Even fed him some rice. She went above and beyond. I wish she had clones in every place we stay. Would definitely use again. She also kept us updated and sent pictures.”
“We will definitely continue to trust Daniel to take care of Summer in the future. It truly felt like Summer was surrounded by endless love and care. Daniel sent us photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could clearly see how happy and comfortable he was there. We believe Summer will miss Daniel and all of their furry friends very much. We are truly grateful and highly recommend Daniel”
“Maria was wonderful with our puppy. This was the longest we had to leave him, and it was nice to know he was in good hands. I really appreciated the updates and pictures. And he had the best time!”
“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.”

“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.

“Holly made our first Rover experience a great one! She was super about responding to my initial questions and she kept me supplied with pictures and updates during Rapunzel’s stay.”
About: Hi, I'm Ariana! I'm a loving and caring person who has always had a huge love for animals. I have two dogs of my own at home, so I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to take care of your pets. I love spending time with dogs, whether that's going on walks, playing, or just giving them lots of attention and love. I'll always treat your dog like they're one of my own and make sure they're happy, safe, and well cared for! I’m in my pen friendly apartment a lot throughout the day so having a dog to take care of/play with will be an amazing thing to look forward to. I have two dogs of my own back at home, but while I’m at school I sadly don’t have any with me. That being said, I can read there needs and wants pretty easily and will make sure that your fur baby has the most comfortable stay/time.

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!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.
