“Mary was very kind and accommodating to take care of our sweet, busy bee girl at the last minute. She kept us updated with pictures and a video of our girls 3 day stay. We felt very at ease knowing she was under great care. Thank you!”

“Lauren and Cris always take such wonderful care of our dog, send adorable updates, and are very flexible to coordinate with! Our dog even squeaks with excitement when we pull into their place, he loves visiting! I would highly recommend them :)”


About: I’m a warm, loving person who adores taking care of dogs. I’ve been raising and caring for pups since I was 15, so they’ve always been a big part of my heart." "My work schedule is from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM with a break at noon, which allows me to swing by home to care for the dogs or handle anything they need. My husband works from home once a week and has a schedule from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. We have plenty of time in the afternoons, and our weekends are completely free to shower them with love!" Our home is very spacious with a backyard and a nearby park—perfect for daily walks and lots of playtime! We don't have kids, so we have all the time and love in the world to dedicate entirely to your furry family member."
“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.”

“I want to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such great care of Donatello! When we adopted him we had already had a family trip planned. We were nervous to find care for him but Anthony took it on with ease! We got so many pictures and videos we felt like we knew where he was at all times and we could see he was enjoying his puppy buddy. Would highly recommend Anthony!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m a lifelong animal lover and the proud dog mom of Bella Rose, my rescued miniature dachshund. Caring for Bella has taught me how important patience, consistency, and gentle attention are, especially with shy or nervous dogs. I treat every pet like I would want someone to treat Bella. I’m attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, comfort levels, and all the little details that help animals feel safe. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddling, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll adjust to what makes them happiest. I’m also an English student and writer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet genuine, one-on-one attention. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m an online English student and writer, so my schedule is flexible and I spend most of my time at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I already plan my days around caring for my own dog, Bella, so making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved is a normal part of my everyday life. I follow each pet’s normal routine and all instructions provided by their owner, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I keep pets supervised, double-check doors and leashes, and never leave them outside unattended. In my home, I introduce pets to Bella slowly and carefully, and I can give them separate spaces when needed. I keep my apartment calm, clean, and comfortable, with plenty of attention and rest time. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Rio stay was great he seems to be very happy with his stay. Amanda sent us photos and communicated with us the entire stay. I will be booking Rio for another stay in the near future.”


“So kind and accommodating! Piper had a great time with Deb and Malcomb! Thank you for taking care of piper while we traveled to a family reunion out of state. Knowing that piper was in a home environment with dog lovers made us feel at ease. Deb was very good at sharing pictures and keeping us updated daily on our Miss Piper. A+ experience. Will highly recommend and will use in future. This was our very first Rover.com experience and it was good! Thank you!!”

“Pattie was amazing!!!! She was very communicative and sent daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated her care and attention, and I hope to book with her again in the future!”

“Día is fantastic! Ellie, my senior dog, looked so happy with her. She sent a lot of pictures during the day. Ellie stayed with Dia for 15 days and I couldn’t be happier with the way Dia took care of Ellie. Highly recommended.”

“Bobbie was amazing with my Sammie, she treated her like a little princess and spoiled her rotten. Bobbie sent me regular updates with photos on how Sam was doing while there. Sammie almost didn't want to go home she had so much fun. What a great experience for my first time boarding my baby. I will definitely be booking with Bobbie again the next time I travel. I'd give her 10 stars if I could!”

“Andrew was great! It was my first time leaving the doggy with a stranger, but he set up a meet and greet and kept me updated so that I barely worried my whole trip. He even convinced Dr. Pepper to take his meds, which is no small feet. If I ever need to travel again, I can say with confidence that Pepper will enjoy his vacation with Andrew too.”

“Andrew is amazing with my five month old puppy! He gently teaches him and provides excellent care. Jasper gets lots of play time and cuddle time. I highly recommend Andrew!”

“Jamie and her husband took wonderful care of Mistral! Communication was excellent throughout his stay, and they sent me photos. They even surprised Mistral with a few of their daughter's soft balls to take home, which was such a thoughtful gesture. It's clear they genuinely love dogs and treat them like family. I would absolutely recommend Jamie and her husband to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you both!”

“Katie and Travis were fantastic with our small, old, special-needs dog! Katie is communicative and was clearly attentive to our dog's needs. We will definitely use her again!”

About: I work from home in Wayne, MI - less than 10 mins from DTW. I’m more than happy to do pick-ups & drop-offs if needed! I share a roomy 1400 sq ft home with my 7 year old Sheltie mix, Iko. I have a large, gated backyard, completely enclosed with an 8 ft. privacy fence. Dogs have free reign of my home and are welcome on all furniture unless you'd prefer otherwise. My flexible work arrangement means that I can be super attentive to your dog, and make sure that plenty of walks and playing happen throughout the day. A little about me: I was raised out in the country here in Michigan with dogs, who were always part a treasured part of our family. We had anywhere from 2-4 dogs in our home at any given point when I was growing up. We raised and trained all of our dogs from puppyhood. One of our happiest and most chaotic times was when we took in a pregnant rescue dog - a Great Pyrenees mix. We delivered and fostered her puppies until they were ready for new homes. They looked like little bears and I still miss them! Once I moved out on my own, I continued the tradition...but with just one dog at a time! I've loved and lost a 4 lbs. Chihuahua, Mira, who made it to age 12 despite a heart condition. I now have a 7-year-old Sheltie/Pomeranian mix named Iko who is absolutely my heart and my baby. I love and am fascinated by dogs, and it's hard to imagine "home" without one. They've been our loyal companions and have worked alongside the human race for thousands of years. There's a purpose for each breed; each dog has unique needs and behaviors. This curiosity and knowledge helps me be more attentive to and compassionate with each dog I care for. If you book with me, I can help maintain consistency with most training or behavior modification routines you have going with your dog. I'm very active, and can ensure that your dog gets lots of playing and walks in every day. I also would love to take your dog for car rides (if they're not stressed by it and behave well in the car!), since that checks off so many enrichment boxes for dogs. Iko loves to come along with me when I hit the road! I can welcome dogs of all sizes - one of my pastimes is weight training! I work 100% from home! This gives me incredible availability and flexibility. I do have to be on my laptop roughly from 9am-5pm, but have a flexible schedule to take breaks, adjust my working hours, etc. I have few commitments during the evenings and weekends, and with enough notice can usually be available during those times. I have a gated and padlocked backyard, which is fully enclosed with an 8ft. tall privacy fence. I do have a 7-year-old neutered male Sheltie/Pomeranian mix named Iko. He's very chill and mainly disinterested in other dogs - sometimes, he does want to try to play! He can get jealous over his momma and his toys, so I keep a close eye on him and take measures to prevent him being defensive. Iko sleeps on the bed with me, and your dog is welcome to as well - or the couch, the chaise, etc.! I'm happy to crate your dog, but only if they consider their crate to be a safe place and are crate-trained.
“I trusted Megan with my 4 year old Maltese with my whole heart! She’s tidy, stays in touch throughout the day by sending pictures and updates, and because she has regular little dogs who she sits frequently. Meelo enjoyed his stay even more, he got tonnes and play time and walks. I’ll definitely be booking again. Thank you Megan!”


“We had such a great first Rover experience with Shannon! She sent updates and pictures of our dog several times a day, and she was professional from start to finish. We’ll definitely call on her again when we need dog-sitting!”

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Flat Rock on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,304 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Flat Rock. About 93% of Flat Rock 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.

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.
