“Allan is great, very communicative and kind. I never worried about my dog Penny the entire weekend and was able to enjoy myself. Definitely would recommend Allan, and I will be a repeat customer.”
“They did Fantastic with my buddy. I'm sure that you will be very pleased, with their services. I would like to thank them again, for taking great care of him.”
About: My dogs are my babies. ❤️ If you feel the same way, we already have something important in common! I started dog walking because I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your precious pups. My husband and I adopted two rescue dogs, Myrtle and Daisy, who came to us with potty and behavioral challenges after being poorly cared for in a puppy mill. With patience and love, they’ve blossomed into two silly, fun-loving dogs who are an important part of our family. I’m not a trainer, groomer, or vet tech—I’m simply a devoted pet parent who understands how much peace of mind matters when you’re leaving your “babies” with someone else. I’d love the opportunity to be a trusted friend to you and your pups! 🐾 I’m available for weekday walks starting around 3:30 PM. I enjoy getting outside and spending time with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. My own dogs also keep me familiar with the importance of consistency, attention, and lots of love! On weekends, I am available for boarding from Friday evening to Sunday evening. To ensure dog safety, we crate all dogs when humans are away. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and patience. I’ll also keep you updated during visits so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“We had a great experience with Andrew. We rescued our dog two months ago and it was our first time boarding him so we were understandably nervous. The frequent photos and videos we received assured us that our boy was having a good time socializing with Andrew’s dog Dante.”
“A big thank you to Cindie and family for Phoebe’s wonderful care while we were on vacation. She enjoyed her stay and we enjoyed peace of mind knowing she was receiving love and attention. Highly recommend Cindie.”
“Juju enjoyed spending holidays with Tiffany and her family. All her dogs were not only friendly, but also well-trained. They were a great company for Juju. Tiffany sent me a couple of pictures everyday and kept me informed of how Juju was doing. Every member of her family seemed to know how to handle dogs. I did not have to worry about anything during my holidays. I’m sure Juju wants to go back to her place again. She is a great dog sitter.”
“Mina it's been my only Pet-Sitter since I found her. Her family treats too well my 2 pups, I honestly feel they love to be with her son and pup Billy more than with us lol.”
“Suzanne watched our dog for about 4 days and he really enjoyed his time there and playing with her dogs and in the backyard. She sent us a picture everyday so we could see what he's up too. We'd definitely use her again when we're in the area again.”
“June took such great care of my highly active dog Zozo. She did an awesome job learning Zozo's needs and adapting to make her stay care free. I will definitely use June again and highly recommend her for other people in need of some dog or cat house sitting.”
“Daniel was the best!! He is very kind and provided much activity for my lab. He sent photos and updates. He was flexible with my drop off and pick up schedule. I would highly recommend Daniel and would re-book again when I visit the area.”
“I needed care for my senior dog, Cookie, so I could attend a workshop out of state. I didn't want to leave Cookie boarded back home for an extended time, so it was great for Madison to care for my dog in her home near my workshop. Cookie was well cared for and I appreciate that all her needs were met. I really appreciated the updates and photo. Madi was great to work with!”
“Ozzy had a good time at his home away from home for the weekend! I was updated with a few pictures and about how he was doing while I was gone. The space for him to sleep was large I just recommend bringing any comfy blankets or toys your babies may enjoy to feel more comfortable. Overall Ozzy did great for his first time ever being boarded.”
“5 stars for Lea and her family! Ellie had such a great stay there while we were away on a camping trip! Very communicative, easy to arrange pickup/dropoff and super friendly family overall. We will be using Lea in the future for sure. Thank you Lea!!”
“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.”
“This family cares. They care about pets. About communication. About making travel and pet care as stressed as possible. I think my dog had a better time during my vacation than I did. He was so well loved and cared for. And we were kept in the know with daily reports and photos that brought joy to each day. We are so delighted with the care our dog got from this living family.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Erie is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $40 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Erie can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Erie home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Erie.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Erie sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
