“When I say my FurBaby was well cared for- he was!! They took exceptional care of Hendrixx. They sent numerous videos everyday- which I loved and appreciated. I highly recommend Mou and Yanling. I definitely will be using them for all of my boarding and sitting needs for Hendrixx.”

“Julie did an amazing job with our fur baby! I think he was probably a little sad to come home! She made sure to give him plenty of exercise, and fun time. He loved playing in her kiddy pool with the garden hose! She made sure to send plenty of pictures and updates so we knew how happy he was! Her greyhound is also a super sweetheart!”

“Emily, Jason & Larry were excellent hosts!! Upon my request for a sitter, they suggested a meet & greet between our dogs. They were welcoming and caring about insuring the dogs were compatible. We agreed on letting Nanook stay. They were very communicative about what our dog was up to, how he was getting along with Larry and they sent photos too. After the stay we were surprised to have received a thank you note and a personalized treat in our bag. That was such a sweet touch! We would definitely book with Emily & Jason again! Nanook enjoyed his stay with them and Larry!”

About: I’m a dedicated and attentive dog owner with hands-on experience caring for my own dog every day, including feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and maintaining a consistent routine. Through this experience, I’ve learned how important patience, reliability, and understanding each dog’s unique personality are for providing great care. I’m comfortable with exercise needs, administering basic care, reinforcing positive behavior, and making sure dogs feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Caring for my dog has given me practical experience and a genuine passion for working with dogs of different temperaments and energy levels. I’m available full-time, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, mornings, afternoons, evenings, and holidays. My open availability means I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, extended stays, or last-minute bookings. I understand how important consistency and reliability are for pets and their owners, and my schedule allows me to give each dog the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, loving environment in a safe home with a fully fenced yard, Your dog would be hanging out with me and Chewy in a large finished basement, he is free to explore and do anything he wants in the room and chose any place to sleep, I have a huge couch that Chewy sleeps on or he will have a dog bed with covers, his choice! Fenced yard and supervised outdoor play and exercise. I let the dogs use the bathroom in the backyard. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to create a calm, pet-friendly space where dogs feel comfortable and protected. My small dog is friendly and helps create a welcoming atmosphere, while I always prioritize careful introductions and close supervision to ensure every pet feels safe. I’m committed to maintaining a clean, secure environment where pet parents can feel confident their dog is being cared for like family!

“George is the best of the best! It was apparent I made the right decision on who I was leaving my dog with within a couple minutes of meeting George, he’s very well knowledgeable and clearly knows how to handle doggies! (my pup literally listened better to him then he does me ha!) It was obvious through the pics I was sent that my pupper Callaway had the best time while my boyfriend and I were out of town for the week! There’s plenty of room at george’s place for the pup to run around and play, which was priority since I have a very energetic dog! Callaway frequently experienced separation anxiety so it was such a relief to find a place for him to go where he feels comfortable enough to be his playful self! He settled in almost immediately and barely whined while he was left alone in his kennel there, which was very out of the ordinary for our dog. and now back at home he’s been wayy less stressed when we have to leave him alone to go to work! I think he built some confidence there for sure, which wouldn’t have been possible without him having that comfortable environment. Thank you George for your awesome services, 10/10 recommend and will 100% be back the next time we have to leave town! :)”

About: I've had both cats and dogs as family members for many years. Now I currently love my family and friends' pets as if they were my own. I am recently retired after working 30+ years for the same company. I'm a home body so I'm comfortable snuggling and spending playtime with your pets. I love the outdoors and enjoy talking walks. I usually watch my friends and family's pets in the comfort of their own homes. I often have their pets at my home as well but usually for short periods, though sometimes overnight. I usually initiate playtime and welcome snuggling.

“Nani had a longer stay with Cody and I had no concerns! He did a great job following additional instructions due to the longer stay and kept me updated throughout my trip. I feel confident in Cody and his ability to intervene and mediate between dogs in case any overexcitement or aggression happens. I feel comfortable leaving Nani with him knowing she’s in good hands!”

About: Hello! My pet experience consists of having my own doggy for the past 20 years. I rescued my older dog and then got a new puppy. My old Rose passed away but I had to give her eye medication and oral medication everyday so I am comfortable with that. I also grew up with family dogs and cared for those dogs. My availability to watch your dog is very flexible. I work from home a most days a week so it is a high chance that I could work from home while caring for your pup. I am a very caring person. I have a PhD in human development and family science and work in the social work field. I have a giant heart and would love to care for your doggie! As a stay-at-home worker, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, regular potty breaks, and plenty of play and cuddle time. My flexible schedule means I can easily accommodate pets’ needs, whether that’s sticking to a specific routine or being available for spontaneous walks and care. Being home also helps me monitor behavior closely and respond quickly to any changes, making pets feel secure, loved, and well looked after. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In my home, pets have access to cozy rest areas, regular outdoor time, and plenty of affection and play throughout the day. I maintain a calm, clean space and follow any routines or special instructions provided. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick closely to the pet’s established schedule to minimize stress. I provide regular updates, ensure fresh food and water, maintain cleanliness, and give each pet the love and attention they’re used to.

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."

“I have no words to express the gratitude I have for Daniel. He stayed with my dog I loved so much for 3 weeks and he was very affectionate with her. She was a puppy of almost 18 years and he was the only one who was willing to keep her. Unfortunately, she left the day before my return, and Daniel took care of her and assisted her on her departure. Extremely considerate, he resolved the situation before he could even speak to us. We met with tears in our eyes. Very dear, felt the loss so much. I recommend and will always recommend him. Excellent person, excellent with animals and excellent caretaker of dogs.”

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.

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!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Garden City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Garden City is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $55 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.

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.
