“Very communicative with daily check-in and lots of pictures and videos. Also went above and beyond by allowing me to pick up my dog later than Rover allows due to a flight delay. She is my go to boarding person.”
“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!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Craig as Barney’s pet sitter! Craig was an excellent communicator, providing daily updates along with adorable pictures. He took Barney on regular walks and made sure he was comfortable in his welcoming home. It was clear that Craig cared for Barney like he was his own dog. Barney had a fantastic time, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend Craig to others and look forward to using his services again in the future!”
“I’m so happy that I found Suzanne to watch my pup while I went on vacation. She was very responsive and proactively sent me updates and pictures during his stay. Highly recommend”
“Natalia and her whole family was absolutely wonderful to deal with! They took such great care of Monkey, and I would recommend her over and over again. She was my first time using Rover and I am so happy! I will definitely be booking with her again! I love that Monkey had a little friend to follow around and feel at home with too”
“Rachael was amazing with my old man Fergus. She kept me informed on how he was doing and sent a pictures and videos. He was in great spirits when I picked him up and I could absolutely tell he was loved like he was their own.”
“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!”
“Gerrie Marie and her hubby are so friendly AND they were great with our 50# unruly toddler (aka BIG puppy) for 5 days!!! Snoopy will definitely be visiting them again! ??”
“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!”
“Tracey is amazing. I was worried leaving my fur babies with a new sitter. I would recommend Tracey to all my friends. Both Samson & Diva seemed so happy and well cared for while we we’re away. Tracey kept me up dated with daily reports and pictures which made me feel very happy and relaxed that we picked her to watch them. She captured the the best pictures of the dogs it was amazing. I can’t say enough good things about her. I think she’s wonderful”
“I boarded my two dogs with Steven, he was very responsive and attentive! He sent photo and video updates, which was so thoughtful and reassuring. If you're looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative dog sitter who will treat your pet like family, Steven is the person you want. I'll definitely be using his services again!”
“Charlotte is the absolute BEST!! My son was very nervous about leaving his new fur baby for the first time and Charlotte went above and beyond to reassure him that Wes was in the best, most loving hands! She invited us over before our trip so we could see where Wes would be staying and made us all feel welcome in her beautiful home. She sent us pictures throughout the day and kept us up to date on his adventures! She truly loved him like her own! Charlotte even did research on his particular breed to understand how to best care for him. We are so grateful we were able to enjoy our trip without a worry knowing that Wes was enjoying his "vacation" too! We very HIGHLY recommend Charlotte!”
“Our dog is extremely shy and fearful of nearly everything and every one. So were were nervous about taking him to a dog sitter after years of him being watched regularly by a friend. We should not have been nervous. Breanna took wonderful care of our dog, and he came home happy and healthy — and healthy is a big deal because new situations sometimes make him so nervous that his digestive system gets disrupted upon coming home. That did not happen. Breanna sent us regular updates and pictures of our boy, and was extremely flexible with a couple small changes to our plan. I highly recommend her, and would definitely book with her again.”
“Whitley was amazing!! Otis is an active guy and there were no shortage of action packed adventures. Otis and Whitley's dog Ollie had a fun and became best buddies. Whitely shared updates 2 times daily and I had complete peace of mind! I highly recommend her! We will be back for sure!!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Grosse Pointe Shores is $45

Angela was a wonderful sitter for our pup, Vanilla! We had a packed weekend and needed someone who would give her real attention instead of just checking the boxes, and Angela did exactly that. Vanilla takes a small eye drop every morning, which can be a fussy thing to get right, and Angela handled it with total ease. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. We would book her again in a heartbeat and recommend her for a dog of any age.
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!
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.

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.
