“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”
“Could not be happier with our experience with Emily and Jason!!! Completely professional, warm and friendly with the whole experience. We started with a casual meet and greet to ensure her baby Larry and my babies would get along ok. Then during their stay she sent us tons of updates and photos every day. My dogs came home so happy. Truly the best experience we have ever had on Rover. She even sent them home with little treats and a hand written card. Will absolutely be a repeat customer, couldn’t recommend them more!”
“This was our first time boarding with Kara and it went fabulously! Rosie appeared happy and well cared for and Kara seemed so pleased with Rosie. Communication was easy as well as drop off and pick up. We will be booking again!”
“Our dog had to get stitches on her paw just a week before her stay with Laura and Manuel, so I let them know about the situation and they were totally on board with following whatever was needed to help her heal. She had a great time as always with the dogs that were there and they did a great job caring for her with her special instructions. I’m so glad we were able to still go on our trip and know she’d be well cared for!”
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.
“We were so happy to have our dog stay with them! They communicated updates and sent pictures throughout the stay. Our dog was a little anxious for her first time staying with them, and they handled it wonderfully. Would definitely recommend them for any dog parent!”
“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!”
“My dog Caleb had such a wonderful time with Andrew and his family. I received daily text messages and photos of how he was doing. I am very impressed with how well they took care of my dog. I would recommend Andrew to everyone. Caleb had a blast! Thank you!”
“We had a great experience! Odie was well cared for during his two-day stay. We received regular updates and pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Odie looked happy and comfortable. We would definitely book again!”
“We had another great experience with Alia, Ian and family. They took amazing care of my dog Cleo and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and knowing she was in such a loving, safe environment. It’s never easy leaving your dog, but they made it so much easier. I’m so grateful and will continue using them in the future!”
“Joan of Bark stayed with Anna and it was great - sometimes Joan gets nervous and doesn’t eat or drink well, but Joan felt comfortable and was eating all her meals and drinking early in into her stay!! We got tons of pictures and updates which always helps. We would highly recommend Anna!”
“Sogol was a kind and loving caregiver to my dog. She sent numerous pictures and updates while we were away and even went the extra mile of purchasing a doggy gate to install at her door to alleviate our concerns of our dog running outside. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She goes above and beyond for your dog”
“I am so happy to have chosen to leave my little Jazz with Tonya! Her little boys and her fur babies were a delight and were very receptive of him! When I picked him up, Tonya had him looking so good and fluffy…I could tell she had taken time to brush him🙂 She was really patient with him and I most definitely would like to book with Tonya again in the future!”
“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.”
“Whitney and Samuel took excellent care of Kodi! He was so happy with them. They sent pictures and gave updates. I will definitely book with them again!”
“Could not have asked for better care of my dog. 🐶 He’s a nervous Nelly and they made Leo feel right at home. They kept me up to date with photos and updates about how he was doing. 😊”
“Angela took fantastic care of Maxwell for four days while I was away! He came home, looking happy, healthy, and wonderfully cared for. He was super excited to see me, but I can tell he thoroughly enjoyed his stay with her. I would highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a loving and attentive dog sitter.”

Aaron and Andrea were so highly reviewed and recommended, and now we know why! They were so terrific with Pecan and I was surprised that she did not act happier to see me, LOL. I'm pretty sure she was spoiled with love, attention and fun, she wasn't sure she wanted to come home! We are looking forward to having them sit for Pecan again.
Cheryl is a very good communicator and our small dog was happy and relaxed after her recent stay with her - and it was easy to keep in touch with Cheryl. We were happy with how smoothly and straightforwardly everything went throughout this whole process with Cheryl and we would be happy to use her services again.
I am so thankful for the care that Beth provided for my baby boy, Maxwell. She went above and beyond in caring for him. She spoiled him rotten! I'm sure he misses her and her home. She took him for multiple daily walks and that's not an easy task! He loves to sniff everything. She cared for him like he was hers. I definitely recommend Beth for your fur baby!
Demi was absolutely amazing! She was very professional, caring, and went above and beyond while watching my pet. She kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my pet was surrounded by a loving family who helped provide plenty of care and attention. I could tell my pet was treated like family, and I truly appreciated the love and dedication. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Megan was an amazing dog sitter. She checked in with me regularly and kept me updated throughout my trip. I truly appreciated that her top priority was making sure my dog was comfortable, which gave me peace of mind during my vacation. Knowing that Bacon was well cared for and comfortable allowed me to fully enjoy my time away. I will definitely book with her again for my next trip and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
So happy that Mark and Nadine were able to watch Cora on our weeklong vacation. We received frequent l updates which we liked, and we were really comfortable leaving her with them as they love dogs and are very attentive. Definitely would use them again to watch our dog!

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.
There are 1,702 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Garden City. About 93% of Garden City 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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. 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 Meet & Greet.
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.
