“Julie was absolutely fantastic! We had to change our pick up day on 2 different occasions. Not only was she completely accommodating, she took excellent care of our puppy. I'd recommend her to anyone.”
“YiTing is a wonderful care sitter! She kept me updated every day and always let me know if she had any concerns about my little Shih Tzu, such as when she wasn’t eating well. She sent me pictures regularly and even discovered what toys she liked to play with—without me having to say anything! This was my first time leaving my dog with her, and I felt very reassured. I will definitely book her again for my next trip.”
“We have worked with LaTasha multiple times and love having Tiger stay with her! :) He looks so comfortable and we receive great updates and pictures throughout his stay”
“Susan was great to communicate with and easy to work with. Even when unexpected things came up, she was upfront and worked out a good situation for our dog. She was also flexible with pickup when our flight was an hour delayed getting back.”
“Our cockapoo stayed with Lynn over the holidays. Lynn was absolutely great. She sent us regular updates and pictures. Was flexible regarding pick up and drop off and was great about asking questions about her care. We would absolutely leave our pet with Lynn again. Highly recommend!”
“Amie and her family are wonderful! She is a great communicator and sends daily updates, which gives us reassurance that our dog is being well taken care of. She treats our dog like he is another member of their family, which we so appreciate. Our dog requires a lot of love and attention, which her family provides to him. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you, Amie and family!”
“Debbie did a great job with our Sheltie Liam. They have a clean, comfortable home with a nice fenced in backyard. Their two Scotties are very friendly towards other dogs. Highly recommended.”
“Wonderful job they made Juneau feel right at home. She enjoyed it so much that she was looking for her new friends. I'm so glad that I chose Aaron because I could see that they really took care of my baby.”
“I appreciated Dawn’s flexibility and compassionate care for my little Chico. She kept me informed of his activities and also updated me with pictures. Definitely will be rebooking with her if I need a sitter.”
“Aisha was great. Very accommodating with my change in travel plans. She made the dogs super comfortable and was so kind enough to send pics of them during their stay. She’s a great communicator and responds very quickly to messages. I highly recommend her for your pet needs.”
“Thank you Brit for taking amazing care of my Diesel. I appreciate how Brit personalized care of my almost 15 year old yorkie. The updates were great and allowed Diesel to get his exercise in and make new fur-friends! I will definitely reach out the next time I need boarding for Diesel.”
“Dena and her family took amazing care of our Lilli! Communication, flexibility and just being amazing people were 5-star!!!!! We had a very nervous out of town fur baby mama in our midst and Dena’s caring attitude even won her over!! Thank you for taking such great care of our Lilli! We will certainly be back when we bring Lilli back to Michigan to hang out with our beautiful grands!”
“Tiffany was my main point of contact and she was so sweet and caring with my senior (14yo) husky mix Molly. I received updates each day morning, and night, and she took my Moll Doll on tons of walks. Molly got to sleep on furniture and I can tell she had the time of her life in the new comfy environment. It was such a relief knowing that she was so well loved while I was away that now I feel like I need to take her back for visits to her new favorite home away from home.”
“Terri was awesome! I have never left my fur babies with anyone else other than family, or friends before and was hesitant to use Rover, at first, for boarding them. However, upon reading Terri’s reviews and then meeting her, I was more than comfortable with leaving my 2 with her for a week. She gave me updates with pictures and both of my dogs seemed very happy the whole time. I’m so happy with how everything went ?”
“Holly & her family are a welcoming home for any pet but for my finicky boy he sure loves it there. We can rest easy while he is there under her care. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Holly. She is so kind and caring. Thank you again for your time and patience with our little troublemaker.”
“Dixie is so comfortable with Cheryl, when I pick her up she's very calm and relaxed. I appreciate how attentive Cheryl is to Dixie & how she keeps me updated daily. This is our second booking with Cheryl & there will definitely be more in the future.”
About: Hi, im Winnie! I’m so excited to meet your furry family members. I’ve been a devoted dog and cat lover my entire life and truly believe our pets deserve all the love, kindness, patience, and respect we can give them. I’ve personally cared for my own dogs from the time they were puppies through adulthood, and I’ve also pet sat for friends and clients, treating every pet like they’re one of my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing outside, cuddles on the couch, or sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care at home. I have a fully fenced 1-acre yard where dogs can safely run and play, and I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m also a Registered Occupational Therapist and a proud University of Michigan graduate—Go Blue! My healthcare background has taught me to be dependable, detail-oriented, and attentive to each individual’s unique needs. I can’t wait to get to know you and your pet, and I’ll care for them with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work part-time, with Fri-Sun weekends, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care, whether that’s morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, or overnight stays. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so daily walks and exercise are something I genuinely look forward to. Caring for animals has always been a rewarding part of my life, and I love making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. Your pet will be staying in a safe, loving, and spacious home with plenty of room to relax and play. Our home has wood floors throughout and a private room available if your pet would ever need a quiet space to decompress or feel more comfortable. Outside, we have a fully fenced 1-acre yard where dogs can safely run, explore, and play. We also live in a quiet, safe, and walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks and outdoor adventures. Your pet will be welcomed by a home full of caring adults who genuinely love animals.

Julie and her husband are very kind people and took great care of our German Shepherd, Maverick. They played with him and took him for long walks. Nice size fenced yard and a clean home. I don't have any complaints, and I would definitely use them again! Stanley W.
Thank you Brit for taking amazing care of my Diesel. I appreciate how Brit personalized care of my almost 15 year old yorkie. The updates were great and allowed Diesel to get his exercise in and make new fur-friends! I will definitely reach out the next time I need boarding for Diesel.
We have left our puppy Chikoo with many sitters, but Simi has truly been the best. Her regular updates and honest communication make her a trustworthy sitter. We could see through the photographs and sense through her messages that Chikoo was being treated like a member of the family. Thank you so much for taking care of our sweet little boy and giving him the best week!
Felisha was so kind to take our pup last minute! We appreciated her flexibility and friendliness. She communicated with us in a timely fashion while we were away on our trip. She seemed to know how to read dogs' behavior, and was very attentive to Rosie's needs. My pup even had a built in playmate with Freya 😊. Rosie came home happy and well-cared for. Thank you Felisha!
Karen and her husband were honestly the most kindest people I’ve ever met. My family normally takes our dog Lola everywhere we go but wasn’t allowed to bring her to Florida with us for our daughter soccer tournament so she stayed with Karen for 8 days. I didn’t worry about Lola at all because not only was she happy to be at Karen’s I knew she was completely safe.
She was amazing with my Ivan pup needing a last min sitter for new years eve!! I received multiple pictures throughout the night and next day as well as updates how he was doing! She took him on multiple walks and he actually ate a lot of his food!!! He normally eats almost nothing when we travel with him. The multiple walks wore him out and he's done nothing but nap since we've gotten home with him! I will always use Ivona anytime I'm in the area and need a sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Farmington is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $67 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,732 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Farmington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Farmington 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 Farmington 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 Farmington.
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 Farmington 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.
