“Kathy was outstanding with our pup, Cali. She provided daily updates and pictures making us feel very comfortable while being away. Will use Kathy again in the future, highly recommend!”
“JoAnn took great care of Tico. She sent updates through out the day of Tico's activities. JoAnn is very accommodating and ensured Tico had his walks every day. I highly recommend JoAnn.”
“Sarah is simply the best. From the second I visited her home, for her to meet Kona, I knew the experience would be great. During Konas stay with Sarah I received multiple pictures, as well as an update, every single day! Sarah was very responsive every time I reached out to her, and to sum it up, I will absolutely be using Sarah in the future!! 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for these services. To Sarah: THANK YOU! Kona looked so happy in all of the pictures and videos that you shared with me. She can’t wait to visit again!”
About: I am a friendly and reliable sitter who will love your fur baby like they are my own! I am a former owner of two Italian greyhounds, and now own two cats. I live in the Livonia area but work in the Northville area and would be more than happy to drop by and give your fur baby love and attention! I currently work full time and end my day around 3/4. I then am free most days after that. I am free many weekends all day. I have a fenced in yard, quiet neighborhood with sidewalks for easy walking, and a ranch with one floor where the basement stairs can be blocked off.
“My dog doesn’t have much boarding experience, so I was a bit worried at first. But Leah kept me updated with photos and messages about Koorie, which allowed me to enjoy my trip without stress. I was especially touched that she even let Koorie sleep on her bed. I really appreciated her kindness and care!”
“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up on a small family farm, where pets were always part of the family. My parents frequently adopted and fostered both cats and dogs, so I’ve spent years caring for all kinds of personalities and breeds—from tiny Chihuahuas to Basset Hounds and high-energy Huskies. Although I can’t currently have pets of my own, caring for other people’s animals has become my favorite way to stay connected to what I love most. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m available in the morning and evenings, and am able to leave work during breaks to do a quick check in on pets! Weekends are completely open. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to work with families to make sure their pets get the attention and care they need! Although I grew up with dogs on the couch and in bed I will always respect the owner’s house rules. Multiple walks a day, respecting scheduled feeding times, and most of all giving all of my attention to your furry friends!
“Andrew was a great choice to care for Toby. We went on a two-week international adventure, where cell reception would be spotty. It was good to know that Toby would be with very responsible sitters, given that we could not be in touch all the time. Thank you for peace of mind.”
“We were, once again, very happy with the care Samantha provided to our cockapoo, Winnie. She has a genuine gift as a pet caretaker, and some good pet care advice to boot! We hope we continue to be lucky enough to have her be available the next time we need to leave Winnie with someone. We highly recommend Samantha, needless to say!”
“Second time looking after my dog Remington for a weekend and it was a great experience. Consistent updates and pictures were greatly appreciated. Will be my first choice for future needs.”
“Anthony was so sweet with my anxious baby girl! I got lots of pics and videos while she was with him which was very appreciated. Would definitely love to use him again!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Kelly was happy to meet with me and my dog before we booked. She is so warm and friendly, and her dog Suzie is a such a sweetheart. All on my part, but I did not realize my young dog would have separation anxiety with a very upset stomach, and Kelly handled things like a pro. I called my vet after our stay to see what calming options I could use in the future, and she told me Kelly was an excellent Rover host if she was able to get my dog's stomach back to normal. Kelly went above and beyond, feeding my dog a bland diet and trying home remedies we discussed over the phone to get her back to normal. She sent photos and communicated with me daily. I would absolutely recommend her to others!”
“Kyung was wonderful with my Nola! She stepped in at the last minute when my boarding plans fell through and made everything so easy. She sent lots of pictures and updates, gave Nola her medication, and Nola was happy as could be when I picked her up. I really appreciated how well she took care of her and would definitely book with her again!”

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!

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.

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.
