“Dia was great with our pup, from the time we connected for a meet and greet we felt comfortable. Dia provided great communication and photos throughout our dog's stay. We certainly will entrust her with our fur baby again!”
“Christine was calm and welcoming to Holly. She sent several photos to us and Holly returned happy and tired :) We already have our next booking set with Christine, thanks!”
“Debbie was fantastic. We had no worries at all while on our trip. Highly recommend if you need a fantastic sitter and home to take your fur baby. We appreciate you guys. Thanks so much!!!”
“Dawn was great! We got updated with pictures and video. Bella really enjoyed her time. I highly recommend Dawn and I will be reaching out to her on our next trip away. Thank you, Dawn 🐾”
“Cash had a great time with Rachel! She was super communicative, letting me know how he was settling in and keeping me updated while I was away for the weekend, sending pics of all the fun he was having while he was with her. She made everything super easy, and I couldn't recommend her more highly. 10/10!”
“Shannon did a great job with our pitbull puppy, Bella, who is highly energetic, friendly and curious. Shannon was patient with her and seems like a true animal lover. She sent us pictures often so we could see how Bella was enjoying herself while we were away. We truly appreciate the care she gave to Bella and would request her again in the future.”
“They were very well cared for. Updates were provided twice a day, they offered more if we needed it. All questions I had up to and during the process were answered quickly. Our very anxious cats came home and immediately began being themselves and acting right as rain.”
“Jennifer was the first time I used a dog sitter that was not family. I reached out to her because she seemed to have a lot of experience and many great reviews, there were no other animals in the home, she has a fenced in back yard, plus she was willing to watch my two 7 month old Chihuahua puppies (not everyone will take on puppies). From the meet and greet I felt at ease. Her home is in a very nice neighborhood, a great place to walk dogs. She was clearly comfortable with my dogs, and the experience with watching dogs was clearly shown in the way she uses gates in her home to keep the dogs safely away from the stairs. The bonus was she has two very nice young boys who also showed how kind and calm they could be with my puppies, but also fun playmates! Once I dropped my puppies off communication was always clear, with several updates and pictures each day. I honestly never worried about my dogs in Jennifer's care, and that is truly the best possible thing I can say about a dog sitter. I would 100% recommend her services to anyone who asked, and I would be happy to bring my dogs back to stay with her family again.”
“Paula is great. She provides a clean house, has expertise to keep order over the dogs, and has a great fenced yard. This was my first occasion boarding my beloved Bo, and was glad to be able to leave him in a place where he would get to hang with other good-natured dogs and have a yard to play for a change. Paula attended to our needs and my concerns. I wish she were closer for general "play dates", but if you are going to/from DTW, it's a very easy drop off and pick up.”
“Natalie was the best dog sitter I have ever had! She is genuine and loving and made my dogs feel right at home. Initally, they are both very shy, but they warmed up to Natalie and her husband very quickly. She sent lots of videos and pictures and great updates. She even went to pick up more medication when my dog ran out from our vet! She went above and beyond! If you are reading this now, book with Natalie!!”
“Lynn was great with my little pup. My dog is skittish but Lynn met all of her needs. She is very conscientious about the little details, and I appreciated all the extra time a pictures she sent. Thank-you, Lynn!”
“Jen was amazing!! I was super comfortable with leaving Charlie in her care. She sent pics and updates which is so comforting when you have to leave your fur baby in the care of someone else. I would 100% book her again!”
“Julie did a fantastic job. My buddy Charlie was definitely depressed after leaving his new greyhound friends, so I know he had a good time. She has a great home for the dogs to play around in the backyard. Would book again.”
“They took good care of my pup. They welcomed us in their home and made sure Snuggz was accommodated. They were even so kind to provide a bowl since I forgot to bring one. The communication was also great when needed. I would recommend”

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 .
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 .
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.
