“Tanu was an amazing dog sitter for our dog Kevin. She was so attentive, sent very frequent updates and pictures, and clearly is a big dog lover. We will without a doubt, be asking her to dog sit our dog in the future!”
“If you want to treat your dog for the spa / vacation while you are gone , do not look any other place ! They are so amazing and lovely . Zoe is also a sweetheart 😍My dog fell in love with both of them instantly! I can not explain how wonderful and lovely they both are . Will definitely bring my dog back”
“Ghost had an amazing time with Mariana! She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and responsive. Mariana provided regular updates and photos, and she even followed Ghost’s puppy schedule perfectly. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their dog!”
“Miley had a great time staying with Marija. She kept me in the loop on everything going on and was very responsive. Miley had fun playing with her dogs and was tired out and well cared for when I picked her up.”
“Rachel was fantastic! We booked a longer stay with short notice and she was super easy to work with and communicated great! I will certainly rebook in the future and when I need a sitter for my pups!”
“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of our dog while we were away for a weekend. She was very attentive, sweet, responsive, and provided daily updates. We will definitely have her watch our dog in the future!”
“Abigail took great care of our pup while we were away! We could tell she has had lots of experience caring for dogs and welcomed our cuddly, spunky girl with open arms. Abigail is extremely responsive with messages, a plus for first time boarders. Would not hesitate to book again.”
“Dylan went above and beyond in his care for Butters. He sent photos everyday and provided updates which was great to see in our long vacation. No issues at all and our dog had a wonderful time playing in the fenced in backyard. Will 100% be using Dylan again in the future for dog sitting!”
“Monica & Razvan did an outstanding job taking care of our 4 legged child. He has been home a few days now and I think he misses his playmate (their dog). Monica & Razvan are dog people and you know what I mean if you are one too, they know how dogs behave and had no issues with my dog. Wonderful people and we will use them again.”
“JoAnn was amazing! We recently adopted a dog and were a little nervous about leaving her in a new place for the first time. We immediately felt so comfortable with JoAnn during our meet and greet visit and our pup had so much fun during her stay. JoAnn took great care of her and sent us many photos and videos every day. She went above and beyond. We will absolutely bring our dog back when we need a sitter and would highly recommend JoAnn.”
About: I have been a pet owner since 2010 but an animal lover my whole life. I am also a mom so I can handle pretty much anything and I have a flexible schedule. I currently work a remote part-time job so I am very flexible during the work day and at times after work and on weekends. I have my own car. I have a fully fenced yard at my house and my dog Clementine loves all animals! I am also interested in walking dogs or caring for dogs in other people's homes during the work day.
“Thank you Karen for taking such great care of Rufus. He seemed like he had a great vacation weekend with you and we really do appreciate it! We hope Rufus was able to entertain you as well! We would be happy to leave him with you again in the future, should the need arise.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dexter
Caroline is excellent, excellent, excellent. My sweet heeler can be overwhelmed sometimes, but she always runs right to Caroline at drop off, and comes home calm and happy. Caroline regularly updates and her home is immaculate. Such a relief to have found a sitter to trust!
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!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Dexter on Rover is $38.85 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 928 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dexter. About 92% 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.
