“Andrew and his wife were incredible! Super friendly, took our pup for plenty of walks and showed her lots of love. I really appreciate their attention to detail and care. Will definitely be using them in the future!”
About: I have 7 years experience with cats, dogs, and various other animals! I am very caring and devoted to the animals I care for & watch! I’m always available & always open to taking new animals! I currently need to come up with $700 before the 22nd of June for an emergency, so I’m willing to take all offers for animals! I do have a gofundme if anybody would be interested in viewing or sharing it as well, but looking to take any & all pet requests right now! I do have a kitten, & always have cat food & everything included on hand.. I will also be providing sometimes for the animals I get requests for! :) I have open availability! The animals I care & provide for always come first! I always make sure they’re needs are taken care of from the top of the morning till the end of the night. I show affection & make sure the animals in my care feel very safe, loved & cared for! I make they’re happy & healthy, and in a well maintained home
“I already shared all the good things in my first review, so I’ll just say this: I came back for a reason! Once again, he was great with my dog and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. 😊”
“Penny loved her stay with Linda! Lots of attention, cuddles on the couch, and playtime in a beautiful backyard. Linda will take great care of your pets and we highly recommend her!”
“Teryn was absolutely wonderful! We were nervous having a stranger watch my pups, but Teryn put our fears to ease after meeting her. She also sent updates with pictures through out their stay, and my pups came home very happy. Teryn will be our first choice to pet sit in the future.”
“Chelsie has a great setup for boarding your dogs. She communicates with updates daily. Drop off and pick up are super easy. Will definitely be utilizing again. Appreciate and trust her taking care of our dog!”
“Sarah provided frequent updates and photos and she responded very quickly anytime I reached out. She took great care of our pup, ensured he was safe and provided a great space for him to enjoy her home and family. Would highly recommend and would not hesitate to use her again!”
“Extremely friendly and helpful. Andrea took great care of Zia for us over a weekend. We received tons of pictures of her having lots of fun. We'll be using Andrea in the future if we need our pup boarded again.”
“Paige and Kellie recently watched my Bernese Mountain Dog, I'm so happy to have found them and already planning my girl's next stay with them! It was my first time using rover and first time boarding my dog so I was pretty nervous but felt so much better just after our meet and greet. They were both so sweet, have a nice fenced in yard for the pups to run and play, and 3 of their own well loved dogs as well that mine became besties with. They sent photo updates throughout the weekend that looked like my girl was having a blast - I was worried she wouldn't want to come home when I picked her up!”
About: I've been around animals all of my life, from growing up on the farm to living with pets through my adult life. My animals are very important to me and we treat them like part of the family! I work full time, but have full availability to care for your animals in the evenings and weekends. Even during the week, I can make time to care for your animals! I have a fenced in yard and own a six year old Labrador retriever who loves to play and is very friendly with other animals. He gets along great with other dogs, and loves his cat sister. Our yard and home is a very secure place for your pet to stay.
“First time with my puppy. Jamie was super nice with her (and her energy). She was very happy with Jamie's dogs and had a great time. (was exhausted after) . Nina will come back for sure. THNX”
“Our 2 Labs Eddy and Lola stayed with Dan and his wife this week. The pups were well cared for. Our family greatly appreciates the care for them while we were gone. We received pics and updates to let us know they were enjoying themselves. 5 stars for the excellent care. Thank you! Definitely would recommend Dan to other pet owners needing pet care services. Will utilize his services in the future.”
“I cannot thank Margaret and Tony enough for taking such wonderful care of our Kaia. Not only did Margaret help us last minute but she had the best time with them. She took her on a 4 miles walk every morning and she spent her days exploring their yard and hanging by the pool. We truly appreciate everything and hope that we can have Kaia come stay with you again. With our busy sports schedule it was so wonderful knowing Kaia was with a family who treated her like their own.”
“Daria was a 5-star, fabulous sitter. She took great care of our little guy and built a great relationship with him. So much so that even when we picked him up, he went back to her for some goodbye love. Daria was in regular contact with us and shared lots of pictures. We'd definitely recommend Daria and she'll be watching our little guy, Riley, again.”
“Matha has taken such special care of my boy. She's made him part of her family, and he's become part of her dog's pack. They are such special people, and I cannot recommend them enough. It's a perfect, loving home for anyone's best friend.”
About: Hello! I am a licensed veterinary technician and have been for 20 years with a primary focus in surgery and dentistry and management. I love animals and have worked my entire adult life with them in some capacity. I have a 15 year old female spayed Chihuahua, 10 year old male neutered Portuguese Water Dog, and 2 cats, all indoor. I do not have the time or room to have more animals of my own which is why I would love care for your fur babies as my own when you are unable. This will allow me to enjoy more animals, of all breeds/sizes, but on a part-time basis...which is more accommodating to my lifestyle. Because of my veterinary experience and knowledge basis; you will not only be getting an amazing pet sitter, but one who can recognize a problem and address it appropriately if needed. I have the ability to bring your fur baby to a near by vet clinic if needed. I am currently working from home, so I have the ability to provide 24/7 care to your fur baby. I'm currently working remote, so I am available to provide pet care 24/7. I would rather late morning visits, drop offs....but can accommodate early morning with notice. I have a yard with an invisible fence and extra collars for dogs that use them. Otherwise I have a tie out in my yard for potty breaks. I have a litter robot for our cat friends. However, I keep pets inside most of the time for safety and comfort.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Genesee is $42
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Genesee
I could not have asked for a better care. Andrew and Morgan took very good care of Kodak and Luna. They send me picture though out the day showing how happy Kodak and Luna were. I was afraid the pups would not want to go back home with me. I hope they are available the next time I need to board Kodak and Luna.
I could not have asked for a better care for my fur kids Kodak and Luna. Andrew and Morgan were great. They sent lots of pictures showing how well Kodak and Luna were getting along. I was afraid the fur kids may not want to come home with me. I hope they will be available next time I need to board the fur kids.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Trish. I trust her completely with my dog, Junie B., and that peace of mind is priceless. When Junie stays with her, I never have to worry and that allows me to truly enjoy my time in town knowing my girl is loved and well cared for. Trish goes above and beyond in the most thoughtful ways. She shows extra care and attention —not only to the dogs, but to their people too. It’s clear that Junie is treated like family, not just a dog being watched. I am so grateful to have someone I trust so deeply, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Trish to anyone looking for loving, reliable care for their fur baby.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Genesee is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $56 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 November 2026, there are 215 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Genesee. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
98% of sitters in Genesee 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 Genesee home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Genesee.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Genesee. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Genesee 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
