“Kelli keeps in frequent contact with us while she has Bo providing updates with photos and sometimes video! This last stay Bo had some diarrhea and she made sure we were aware, asked for feedback and if there was any action we wanted her to take. Kelli is reliable and we trust her fully with our Fur Baby. We have been using her since 2022 I believe and she has never let us down!”
“Catherine did a great job with our anxious reactive little guy (9 yr old Morkie). She was very responsive and sent lots of photo updates. I recommend her if you have a dog that needs some personal space from other dogs that a normal kennel environment can’t provide.”
“Our dogs were so happy and content while we were on spring break, and the kids loved looking at the photo and videos Deb sent throughout the week. We are a little worried they will be bored when they come back home after being at the Cavi play date all week. We will definitely be a repeat customer!! Such great communication, care, and genuine love for Mimi and Jessie while we were on spring break! Thank you!”
“Highly recommend Amber! Our dogs looked so happy each time she sent pictures or videos, she has a great fenced in yard for them to run around in and even allows dogs on furniture and beds. Hands down my dogs favorite part I’m sure! Her sweet daughter even bought my dogs a toy, they love their new “baby”. Thank you Amber!!”
“Aleisha was amazing with our 1 year old pup. As a rescue he does have anxiety being left alone and she handled him beautifully! The pictures throughout his stay really helped to ease my mind as I had never parted with my dog before for any amount of time! She made it a very easy transition and worked with my same day notice! Couldn’t of had a better experience!”
“Amy was a wonderful sitter for our dog while we were away for a week. We loved all the updates she would share and I could see that our dog was very well cared for and absolutely loved staying with Amy. Thank you so much!”
“Shawnia was the best pet sitter ever. Seven really enjoyed herself and she made me feel at ease during my whole trip by sending me pictures and updates. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much.”
“Anna & her family were the best! My dogs (lab & schnauzer/terrier) loved all of the attention they got from everyone! Anna updated me multiple times a day with pics of all of the loving my girls received! Highly recommend! 5 stars!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Willo was absolutely great with Kobe kept me updated with pictures and just did an awesome job my dog really enjoyed the company of her dogs and atmosphere surrounding her area.. I would choose her anytime”
“Danielle was amazing with my senior[16] blind husky. All of her huskies are well trained and played very well with my dog. Danielle is very knowledgeable and I trust her to watch my senior husky with no worry. My dog tends to shut down around other people and completely ignore other dogs. When I picked her up she was very happy and playful with the other huskies after a couple days with them”
“Wonderful experience. We were nervous to leave our puppies for the first time. Alexia made us very comfortable. She saw how nervous we were and gave us extra updates to calm our nerves. She put us at ease quickly. The pups seemed to have such fun . Her family played with them so much I was afraid they would want to stay! They came home well exercised and happy. Thank you again Alexia!”
“This was Daryl’s second overnight stay with Taya, and once again he had the time of his life playing with Taya’s dogs. Taya sent lots of updates and pictures and videos so we could be sure he was doing well.”
“Im a little late to the review party but Kaila and her fur family are just AMAZING! I could not have found a better pup Sutter for Annie. Kaila cares for her like she's her own and this Alows my pup to socialize around other animals and people in a supervised and controlled setting and not be kooped up at home all the time . I truly appreciate Kaila and recomend her 100% ? plus she is so flexible...bonus!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and have personally owned three dogs ranging from Shih Tzus and Corgis to Golden Retrievers and Huskies\. I have experience caring for both puppies and seniors, including dogs with arthritis and other special needs\. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, vitamins, and other treatments, and I’m attentive to each dog’s individual routine, comfort, and needs\. I truly love dogs and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and long walks\. I’m patient, dependable, and observant, and I take the time to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I am retired so I have a lot of time to watch your dogs! They will have my undivided attention. I also have a fenced yard so along with walks they will get to roam around in the big backyard. I love playing fetch with them and will try to teach them new tricks if you allowed! I have a big fenced in yard so they will have access to outdoors anytime they needed it. I always have fresh water available for them and I have a 2 year old Shih Tzu they can play with!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Girard 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 Girard.
<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 Girard 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.
