“Guinness loves coming here. He enjoys the other dogs in the house and the play time in the backyard. He always comes home exhausted from all the fun he’s had with Tonya.”

“Cody, his family, and pup Freya took great care of Moxie. She was skittish being her first time away overnight, but they were patient with her and gave daily updates and pics. She loved playing with Freya& fetching balls. Their home and yard is safe and secure. We will definitely book Cody again when we are visiting out-of-state family near him.”

“Kristin, is incredible!! She made our Golden Retriever who has a lot of anxiety very comfortable and right at home the entire time. She provided excellent communication on a daily basis and was incredibly accommodating, professional and caring. If I could give 6 stars I would!! Thank you Kristin!!!”

“Robert took such good care of my girl! I was so nervous at first about her being away but he made sure it was updated and she was comfortable and well taken care of. My dog even got a chance to make some new friends which is amazing. Thank you again so much! I look forward to the next time babygirl has to go somewhere”

“Kim is wonderful to our girl Isla! Isla just fits right in with the pack and has so much fun. Kim is always doing something fun with her, and always gives her the best care. She’s our go to sitter and we’re grateful to have found her, we will use her until the day she decides to not dog sit anymore.”

“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”


“Sydney was amazing!!! Poor Charlie got sick with 2 parasites right before his visit. He was feeling much better after a few days on medication so Sydney still was willing to take him in. She continued the rest of his treatment which consisted of multiple medications at carousing times throughout the day. She continued to provide us updates through out his stay and reassured us that he was definitely on the up and up the whole time. Her location is ideal for airport travel as she is only about 10 minutes from DTW. We will absolutely use Sydney in the future!! Thank you again!”

About: Hi! I’m Nicole. I’m a retired professional petsitter/dog walker and have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages. I’m experienced with giving oral medications, injections, and catering to special dietary needs. I’ve been working from home recently and would love to have some dog friends to keep me company. I’m able to let them out to go potty do some zoomies frequently throughout the day. I have three cats that are used to having new dog visitors regularly. They are ok with dogs that are a little more curious and playful with them. During the day your dog would have the run of the house and at night I keep them with me so the cats can have their time. If I have to go out I keep everyone separated. If your dog has never been around cats before, that’s ok, but scheduling a meet and greet is an absolute must!
About: I got my first dog when I was in 12. Her name was Egypt and she was a red nose pit and at the time i didn’t know much about dogs but the love i grew for her and caring for her was so deep. She needed me for everyday survival but I learned I needed her much more than she needed me. I feel that way about all animals and I will treat your pet as if they are Egypt. I have dog sat friends/family pets before as well, i walked, fed, bathed, their/my pets as well as cleaning their enclosures and dealing with doggie periods. I also have cared for a hamster and bearded dragon before so I have experience will pets other than cats or dogs! I’m currently working 11-7pm shifts with Wednesday and Sundays off, so I am free before 11, after 7 and all day on the days I do not have work! I’d like to fit in pet care as much as I can! I often do drop-ins/walks on my lunch break so that is always an option as well! Just message me :) I currently live at an apartment and would prefer to care for your pets in your home however, I do offer boarding as well. I have no problem cleaning up and refreshing the food bowls and litter boxes. Also making sure there are no paw prints on the floor if it’s wet or muddy outside. I love cleaning so also just cleaning up after myself or your pet if an accident occurs.
“Lauren and Cris provide the best pet care any owner could hope for! I was out of town for 10 days, and they made sure my boy had so much fun, snuggles, and even threw him the best birthday party complete with toys and treats. They truly love him, and I love trusting them!!”

About: There’s nothing more stressful than finding someone to take care of your pets while your away. As a member of your family, you want to know that they will be well taken care of while you’re away. Let me give you peace of mind knowing that your animals are being taken care of, the way you would. As a owner of two dogs, I know how to properly care for animals. I love all animals, and there’s nothing I like more, than knowing that your pets are safe and being taken care of while you’re away. I would give your pets the same care, love and affection that I would give my own. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets. I currently work part time. So I have a very flexible schedule. Lots of time for checkins and walks. Does your pet like looks of potty breaks. No problem. I’m happy to let them out as much as needed. My home has a 6ft privacy fence. My yard is completely enclosed. I always monitor the dogs from the window or go out with them. I also have two very friendly pups.
“Great dog watchers! First time leaving her with someone over night. My dog Stella apparently has terrible separation anxiety! Diane and Duncan took care of her and helped her get over some of that anxiety. I will definitely use them again. Thank you !”

“Megan was great! She took good care of my Zoey. Made Zoey feel part of her home. My flight was delayed a day. Megan just extended the stay with no hassles. I will be a repeat costumer.”

“Teresa and her family were great! Baguette hadn’t done well at regular doggy daycare so we tried Rover for the first time. They made Baguette feel right at home and helped her adjust. I greatly appreciated Teresa’s communicativeness and kindness. Thank you!”

“Rachel was wonderful. She was attentive and caring to my much older dog that recently experienced some trauma in other boarding settings. Rachael helped her to adjust to the transition of staying in a new place and she sent regular photos and reports of her progress. When I picked up my dog, Rachel and her partner provided what felt like honest feedback back regarding some limitations my dog experienced with other animals at their house as well as shared behaviors they observed that I didn’t know my dog did until the two day visit with them. First instance - learned my dog definitely would hunt a cat if given the chance - this is useful intel future bookings. I definitely recommend Rachel to anyone.”

“I love her. First time leaving my Stormi but i was comfortable that she was in good hands. Always want someone that my pup would relax with. She was really calm when I picked her up. I will book with Jalyn again.”

“Kimberly and Charles did a fantastic job taking care of my pup! It was like leaving her with family. Well attended to, plenty of play, plenty of walks, lots of pets and belly rubs!”

“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Flat Rock is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $45 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 1,259 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Flat Rock. 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 Flat Rock 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 Flat Rock 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 Flat Rock.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Flat Rock 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.
