“Amanda was amazing. This was my first Rover experience and the first time being away from my puppy for more than 15 minutes (vet appointments). She totally put my mind at ease with her love of animals and the multiple pictures and a video. Oakley had a great time playing with Amanda’s daughter and two dogs. She came home happy and tired from all her activity- which was appreciated, because Oakley is a high energy puppy. Amanda was also really understanding when Oakley had an accident (still a puppy) and it helped a great deal that Amanda’s dogs also use the potty bells (something Oakley uses at home to let me know when it’s tile to go out). With Amanda’s help Oakley started using the potty bells there too (and knowing Oakley’s love of the outside and how much she loved the fenced in yard...she probably ran poor Amanda ragged ringing the bells! ?) I would definitely recommend Amanda and hope to have the opportunity to book her again!”
“Laura and her husband came through again! On Frieda’s second stay, she hopped right out of the car and moseyed happily up to the door without hesitation, a clear sign she felt comfortable and safe. If she hadn’t, we know she would have stayed put in the car. The photo updates showed the same story: a happy, smiling Frieda. I really appreciate Laura and Mark’s flexibility and their willingness to welcome her back on short notice.”
“My dog loved staying with JoAnn and Mike. He must have had fun playing with their dog Lyla because he's been sleeping since we got home! JoAnn responded quickly to any questions and gave updates. I always felt he was well taken care of and getting lots of attention and play time. ”
“My Sophie is high energy and still young dog and she was willing to take the challenge. Sydney was very kind and put my fears to rest. She sent pictures several times a day with updates. She has a large fenced in yard and also took Sophie on walks, just fantastic!”
“Jamie was a fantastic sitter! Extremely experienced and gave us daily updates while we were gone. We will definitely leave our fur baby with her again on future trips!”
“Kim was wonderful! Our pup had the best time staying with her family and playing with her own pup. Kim sent lots of photos and updates, and our pup came back happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the fun😊”
“Being my 1st time using the app with my puppy, I was nervous. Jenai & Sean were outstanding! They made my dog feel like part of their family and treated him with as much love as I do. They were patient with his quirks & kind to send lots of photos to keep me informed. I will absolutely be using them in the future & highly recommend them”
“Ellie was amazing! We had a last minute trip come up as well as cancelled flights and she was so kind through all the changes. She made sure we felt comfortable with Ember’s first stay there. Even though Ember was there for only one night, she came home tired and happy which showed how much Ellie played with her and gave her attention. 100% recommend Ellie for any dog sitting needs!”
“Wow! The absolute best!! She sends all of the pictures multiple times a day!! Our bubs was in was in total heaven and on a vacation during our vacation! We will be return customers as long as Amber available!!”
“Kaity and family made the process very smooth. It was great to have a meet and greet in advance as well. I appreciated her quick responses to my messages, as well as having Zoey so warmly welcomed in her home. This is our first time using Rover for care and we will definitely do so again.”
“Shawnia was the best pet sitter ever. Seven really enjoyed herself and she made me feel at ease during my whole trip by sending me pictures and updates. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much.”
“The best review I can give is that I think my dog was depressed to be home because he missed Kathy and her husband so much!! Chewy loved being there,I loved getting the pictures to start my day. Best experience ever for me and my pup!!”
“Provided many updates and photos!! Came home sleepy, which is great news for a 9 month old puppy. Karen was awesome for a last minute booking and overnight stay! 10/10 !!”
“Emily took great care of Mario while we were out of town. She was super comfortable with our very excited dog from the first time they met, and communicated with pictures and texts during his stay. Mario had a great time with them and his new friend, Skeeter! We absolutely won't hesitate to send Mario to Emily for future visits!”
“Ashleigh was great to our girls! She sent lots of pictures and took great care of them when one of them had to be given meds and was super flexible with drop offs and pickups as well!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 238 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dowling. About 88% of Dowling 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.
