“Gerrie Marie boarded our dog Artimus for a week and we are very happy with the results. He is a big 1 year ~80lb Shiloh Shepard Dog who is extremely playful and she able to meet his high energy needs. Artimus is very shy when meeting new people, but he warmed up to her and her family quickly and nicely. All of her dogs got along very will with Artimus and had no issues with that. Pick up and drop off were also very accommodating. Would definitely recommended to anyone looking to board their fury companion.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover and proud pug mom who would love to welcome your pup into our home! 🐾 I grew up with dogs and have experience caring for puppies, potty training, and looking after senior dogs. For the past three years, my husband and I have been raising our own pug, Pupo, so I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your dog. We recently moved to Michigan for my husband's work, and while I finish my master's degree in Computer Science online, I'm home throughout the day. Here's what you and your pup can expect: 🏡 Lots of love and attention: I'm home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of company, cuddles, and supervision. 🌳 Fenced backyard: Plenty of room for supervised playtime and potty breaks whenever needed. 🐕 Daily walks: We're located just off Mack Avenue, on the border of Grosse Pointe Farms, and love walking through the nearby neighborhoods and green spaces. 🧩 Toys and activities: We have plenty of toys, puzzle feeders, and other activities to keep dogs entertained. 🐶 A friendly playmate: Our pug, Pupo, loves people and other dogs! We're happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand and can keep dogs in separate areas of the house if needed. 📸 Photos and updates: I'll keep you updated so you know how your pup is doing while you're away. Every dog is different, and I'm happy to follow your dog's usual feeding, walking, and potty schedule to help them feel comfortable during their stay. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! ❤️ I'm currently finishing my master's degree online, so I'm home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and potty breaks as often as needed! I enjoy taking breaks from studying to spend time outside with Pupo, and we'd love to have another furry friend join us! I'm happy to follow your dog's usual feeding, walking, and nap schedule to help them feel right at home. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities! 🐾 🏡 Clean, dog-friendly home: I keep our home clean and the floors clear of small objects, food, and anything dogs might be tempted to chew or eat. 🌳 Fenced backyard: Dogs have plenty of room to play and enjoy supervised outdoor time in our fenced yard. 🐶 Safe introductions: Our pug, Pupo, is friendly with other dogs, but I understand that every dog is different. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet before booking to make sure everyone is comfortable. 🚪 Separate spaces if needed: We can use gates to keep dogs in separate areas of the house when needed, whether for feeding, rest, or personal space. ❤️ Personalized care: I'll follow your dog's usual routines and any special instructions you provide, including feeding schedules and other preferences. 📸 Regular updates: I'll send photos and updates throughout your dog's stay so you can feel confident they're happy and well cared for!

“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!”

“Katherine was an amazing dog sitter! She was incredibly attentive and truly went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy, safe, and comfortable while I was on vacation. She took him on regular walks, kept me updated with pictures and videos, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. The sweetest surprise was that she even celebrated his birthday with pupcakes! It was clear that she treated him like one of her own. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and thoughtful pet sitter.”

Megan was wonderful with my senior girl Olive Oyl! She was so attentive and caring, kept me updated the whole time, and I could tell Olive Oyl was comfortable and happy. It's hard trusting someone with an older dog, but Megan made it easy. Would absolutely book again — highly recommend!

This was our first time boarding our two dachshunds. I was nervous at first but Nancy allowed us to meet her & her dog Betty before booking. Her dog Betty is a gentle giant and was nice to my dogs. Nancy did a great job at providing updates and sending us pictures. We will definitely be booking with Nancy in the future. Thank you!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Grosse Pointe Shores

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Grosse Pointe Shores is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $45 and $90 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 October 2026, there are 1,298 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Grosse Pointe Shores. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

95% of sitters in Grosse Pointe Shores 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 Grosse Pointe Shores home-away-from-home, 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 , 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 .

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.
