“Jessica & Matt are amazing! They updated me everyday with photos and how my pup was doing. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a dog sitter. Thank you again, to both of you for taking such good care of Charlie, I never worried once while I was gone, knowing he was in your care😊”
“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.”
“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. 😊”
“We spent a week on vacation and left our Italian Greyhound with Beth and her two pups Annie and Lennox. She sent photos every day and kept us updated. Rush came home excited and happy. Highly recommended.”
“Rachel did an amazing job with our dog. She kept us updated with how Louie was doing and sent us lots of pictures, which was great to see how he was doing. I really believe Louie enjoyed himself with Rachel and her family.”
“The entire process from start to finish with Victoria was nothing short of excellent. She communicated with me through the stay and I truly felt she enjoyed caring for our two dogs. If you are in need of a kind and caring sitter, I highly recommend Victoria!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Dog Sitters – Like a Second Home for My Pups! I can’t recommend our dog sitters enough! From the very first message, their communication was warm, prompt, and professional. They made everything so easy and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Our dogs stayed at their home, and honestly, it felt more like sending them on a vacation than dropping them off with sitters. They were welcomed like family, and it was clear they were treated with so much love and care. One of my favorite parts was getting regular updates — texts, photos, and videos — showing all the fun adventures, playtime, and snuggles. Even better, they have a dedicated Instagram account [@trutails_] where they post the cutest highlights of their time with the dogs. It was such a joy to follow along and see how genuinely happy and relaxed our pups were in their care. The house is super dog-friendly, and our dogs settled in immediately. When we picked them up, they were happy, healthy, and honestly didn’t seem like they wanted to leave — which says it all! If you’re looking for dog sitters who will treat your pets like their own, provide a loving home environment, and keep you in the loop every step of the way, these are your people. We feel incredibly lucky to have found them!”
“Jolynn was great with my Kobe! She sent pictures and an update every day, and he seemed like he was well taken care of when I picked him up. Already booking her for our next vacation!”
“We are totally happy boarding our puppy at Margaret’s. Our puppy, Effie, had a great vacation while we vacationed. Margaret sent photos and videos daily which was good to see that she was well cared for and having a fun time. Great communication throughout. Margaret will be our first choice, for future boarding needs.”
“Best decision I ever made to book not only through Rover but with Mayrannie. She was absolutely wonderful sent me pictures and updates on how he was adjusting everyday. She was so so sweet to my boy!! I know he had a great time there because when I picked him up he was so happy and he was so exhausted from playing with her dogs. He's been passed out since we brought him home. We will definitely bring him there again. Thank you so much for everything we were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries knowing he was happy and being taken good care of.”
About: I've had pets my entire life. It has been quite some time since I have owned a dog. I had the best dog of my life and since she passed away I don't think I can endure that loss again. However, I still crave interactions with man's best friend. I very recently lost my 19 year old kitty which has been difficult but I still have a 12yr old rescued cat with bad behaviors lol. I am experienced with providing oral medications and injections. I owned a diabetic cat that unfortunately died from cancer. I also have fish and cardene shrimp. I have cared for reptiles, birds, rats, mice, and other small furry friends. I am an RN but need to spend more time with critters to make my life more balanced and enjoyable. Sure, overtime as an RN pays better, but time spent with animals brings me joy. I have experience training both cats and dogs. I am a remote worker and therefore have a great deal of flexibility. Let me know your needs. I will do my best to accommodate your pet's needs. I keep my cat in the bedroom due to bad behaviors and extreme anxiety making it easy to care for another animal in our home if needed. I do not have a fenced yard but I live in a beautiful subdivision for long walks. I prefer to watch pets in their home to reduce anxiety but if your pet is very social and you prefer they stay in our home, our home is very pet friendly. Our whole family has cats and dogs and they always come to visit and get spoiled. Animals are allowed on furniture and run of our large home.
“Haley hosted our 10yo golden retriever in her home for 5 days. They have an excellent fenced in backyard and two kiddos to keep pups busy! Haley also did home visits for our cat, who needs insulin shots with his food. She came over once before our vacation to see how to care for our cat and we returned to a healthy and happy feline! The daily photos we got were such a reassurance that our pets were in great hands. We definitely will use Haley again for our future trips. Easy to communicate and coordinate with!”
“We have left Timmy with Dellisa twice. He recognized her home when approaching in the car the second time and was excited to be there. We appreciate the great care she provides.”
“Ted, was amazing — he watched Odin for us on very short and we couldn’t have asked for better care. We’ve gotten to know him and his dog Maizey in the neighborhood over time (Maizey’s always so friendly with other dogs!), and he’s just a genuinely kind person. He took Odin on regular walks, sent us photos throughout the stay, and kept us updated the whole time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing a trustworthy, attentive sitter!”
“This was the first time we left Trigger with Stephanie and have already rescheduled our next visit. Stephanie sent us photos and updates on how our dog was doing and Trigger came home exhausted and happy. Thank you Stephanie!”
“April is a wonderful sitter! She’s very caring, always friendly, keeps you informed, easy to communicate with…. Just wonderful! She took care of our Golden a few times and we love to book her again and again. Thank you April, traveling is much easier knowing Abbie is with you!”
“Linda did a great job with our normally anxious nori! This was the first time we had to leave our girl behind and i dont think she wanted to leave Linda's house ?. She had a blast and loved the belly rubs! Linda sent us photos and updates everyday of the stay and was very flexible with pick up and drop off times! We will be using her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 654 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Goodrich. 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.
96% of sitters in Goodrich 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 Goodrich 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 Goodrich.
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 Goodrich. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Goodrich 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.
