“Angela was great! She made Dobby feel comfortable, and kept me in the loop about how he was doing while I was away. Now he's home and crashed out from all the fun.”
“Best experienced ever. Nia was great. So was Phillip. Great folks. They took good care of Lilly. They were very engaged and sent us pics as well as video. There was plenty of room in the yard for our dog to play. I highly recommend them. We will call on them again soon.”
About: I have been rescuing dogs for almost 2 decades. Needless to say, I love dogs. I currently have a great Pyrenees and she would love Company. I work 100% remote from home., my yard has a 6 foot privacy fence am I Home is very dog friendly. I am also experienced in taking care of diabetic dogs, including testing and injections twice a day, monitoring food and making sure that all the dogs under my hair get daily walks, and lots of love. I work 100% remote. My day doesn’t start until nine, which allows me to spend time in the morning either playing with the dogs going for walks. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood around those days that the weather doesn’t permit us to go out I have what we call beauty time.. I walk my dog every evening for at least 30 minutes and if the day is nice, we try to get some time in during lunch as well My house and backyard are very pet friendly. I am not someone who gets upset if there’s an accident after all they’re pets, stuff’s gonna happen. I have a 6 foot privacy fence in my backyard. My dog prefers to sleep outside, but for the dogs that I’m sitting I prefer they be inside with me.
“Samantha and Zachary are awesome. Unfortunately it was a last minute trip but they set up the meet and greet right away and right away I knew it was the right choice. Loved getting the pics and videos and I would highly recommend them. Plan on using them again.”
“Craig was great with my dog. I had to leave him for a week and Craig was very good with him taking him for walks and sending me pictures everyday. He is easy going and I will leave my pup with him if the need arrives anytime.”
“Riley felt very comfortable innSuzanne’s home and appreciated chasing the squirrels in her back yard. Could not have asked for better treatment. Will be using Suzanne next time we will be back in GP..”
“Tracey made my pup feel at home and so welcomed! She is also about safety and ensuring the utmost care, just like it was her own pup. She sent updates in videos that reassured me of how my pup did during her very first overnight stay. Thankful to have booked with Tracey as it is evident that she has a lot of experience and love in caring for fur babies.”
“Steven was great as always. He moved something around on his personal schedule to accomodate my late flight so that I could pick up my dogs that night rather than having to pick up the next day. Would recommend.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving KodaBear with Dawn and her family. We received pictures and texts confirming he was doing well. Their daughter allowed Koda to snuggle at night! I think Koda misses Rambo!! We highly recommend this family!”
“Katie was a wonderful sitter for our puppies first experience away from home. We received many sweet photos showing all of the fun she had with other dogs, along with updates about feeding and activity. It was a really good experience and great for socializing a puppy too!”
“We booked last minute and she accepted. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur baby. He really enjoyed the stay there. She sent pictures and videos to update us. She went above and beyond when zizi wasnt eating. She communicated and made us feel at ease. I would recommend her very professional 👌 our dog had fun. We will book her again. Thanks Rachael for taking care of zizi😊”
“Great sitters and my doggie and he looked to be having a marvelous time! Lots of communication from them, the entire time…which I loved. ❤️ I will absolutely book with them again.”
About: Hi, my name is Carissa! I am experienced in caring for many animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and even farm animals. I owned an operated an open-play dog boarding and daycare facility in Southern California for five years (from 2014 through 2019) serving over 300 furry clients- all different sizes and personalities. (My old Facebook page with reviews can be seen on facebook by searching CarissaBennettCanineCare). Since moving back to my home-state of Michigan I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years in a general practice clinic, and am able to confidently provide first aid, as well as administer oral, topical, and injectable medications to pets in my care. Additionally, I am comfortable with caring for senior and special needs pets. I love all animals like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furbaby while you are away! I am available all day Fridays-Mondays. Perfect for long weekend trips! I do work to Tuesdays-Thursdays, 8am-5pm, but I am available in the evening on Thursdays for drop-off if needed (for an early Friday morning departure, etc.). I am available for drop-in visits Friday-Monday as well, and can also schedule drop-in visits between 6-8 pm Tuesday-Thursdays. Your pet would have tons of love in our home, with access to all living spaces and our large fenced-in yard. We currently have 1 indoor/outdoor kitty, but our chocolate lab recently passed away, so no pups in the home at this time.
“Our family is so grateful to have found Kellie to watch our dog. He was well cared for and we enjoyed the daily pic Kellie sent us while away on vacation. It is reassuring to know our dog has a safe and loving place to stay when needed. Thank you, Kellie!”
“Jessica was amazing with our pups! We've never used Rover before but decided to for a 9 day trip. We are worriers with our babies so we were nervous, but I am so happy we did because they had tons of play time/attention, and it was SO much more affordable than a boarding facility. We received daily pictures, updates, and some videos along the way. We will definitely be working with Jessica again!”
“Katherine was a fantastic accommodating host for our precious Bruno! We were running late to drop him off and then had a family emergency that delayed us picking him up a few hours later than planned. She sent us photos throughout his stay and asked us about taking him out. I appreciated her consideration. We will absolutely be using her again in the future if she will have us!”
“We were very nervous to leave our 7 month-old golden with a Rover for the first time but she was well taken care of and had lots of fun. Amanda sent a lot of pictures too which eased our minds!”

Zenon loved her stay with Angela! She was so great and communicative, and I could tell Zenon was very comfortable right away from the meet and greet. She went above and beyond to make sure Zenon was feeling at home, even with other dogs staying at the house at the same time. Will definitely be back. 🙂
Sarah and her family were awesome with our dog Wrigley. It's been years since we left him with anyone. We brought him to her house and immediately he was running around and didn't seem to care that we left him. We felt really comfortable when we left him and never worried about him. We received lots of updates, photos and videos. Wrigley always looked happy. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. I'm sure he got a lot more attention at their house. I will definitely use Sarah again; she is now our go to person for Wrigley.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Grosse Pointe Shores sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Grosse Pointe Shores landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Grosse Pointe Shores 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 Grosse Pointe Shores.
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.
You and your Grosse Pointe Shores 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.
