“Considering that we requested Steven’s services months in advance, we were very pleased that he kept in touch, assuring me multiple times that he would take in our Merlin. He sent us pictures and messages, during our long separation, to alleviate any concern we might have had that Merlin was not adjusting to a new environment. Merlin was happy, well-fed, busy with other furry guests, and came home full of energy. I definitely recommend Steven for your boarding needs. Thanks, again, Steven!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter in Whitley! Our dog, Pepper, had the best time and was so well cared for. The communication was fantastic, and we loved knowing she got to play with Ollie the whole time—they became the best of friends! We’ll absolutely have Pepper stay again. Highly recommend!”
“We just moved to Detroit and we needed a dog sitter ASAP so we turned to Rover. We used the service in our prior city and found a good reliable sitter. We lucked out again with Theresa & Adrian. They took good care of our goldendoodle. If they are available, we will definitely use their services again.”
“I was in a desperate situation with my other lady who watched my dogs when I travel when I learned that she wasn’t taking good care of them. And I almost cancelled a trip but found Mia and Phillip and they seemed really nice and thorough so I used them for a two week trip. They were wonderful…I got pictures or videos twice a day with updates and always felt they were secure. A really good experience so you can use them with no fear.”
“Another great stay with Sofia! She took wonderful care of Oakley for a short overnight, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. I appreciated her communication and the care she gave my girl. It’s such a relief to know Oakley is in good hands when I’m away. I’d happily book Sofia again!”
“Jess took great care of my boy, Drake. I really appreciated her kindness, care and flexibility w/ taking Drake last minute. Whenever I’m in Detroit, I will definitely be utilizing her services again. Highly recommend!!!!”
“My cat Pinto warmed up to Kayla immediately! She was so sweet, thoughtful and flexible when my plans changed last minute. Great communication and updates, impeccable care. I could tell Pinto was not just looked after but loved. Would definitely book Kayla again. Thank you so much!”
“Natalia went above and beyond for my Darla this past weekend! She looked like she had a blast in the photos that were sent and was is so tired from playing with her new friends! Will 100% be booking again!”
“Jessica is lovely, she was patient and friendly, and sent tons of photos and puppy updates throughout my doggo's stay. Would recommend and will def hit her up for future boarding needs!”
“Catherine was very good to Mojo! It’s always a little nerve wracking to leave your pup at a new place for the first time, but Catherine made my dog feel right at home. I would definitely use her again for dog sitting.”
“I recently boarded my dog, Marty, with Erika again for the 3rd time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Erika's genuine love for dogs and her professional approach made me feel completely at ease. Marty came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared-for. Highly recommend Erika for her exceptional dog boarding services! we will be back!”
“Dave is great. Cleo had a great time playing with the other dogs! She slept for a day and a half when I got her back and that's incredible for how high energy she is! I would just be cautious if you have a dog that is reactivate or resource guards. There's plenty of dog toys and beds all over the house. I will bring cleo back. Thanks Dave”
“Our dogs had a great time with Shree and her dog Zusa. She made us feel comfortable and at ease with all the update videos and great communication. Our dogs were treated as if they were parts of her family. Definitely recommend Shree!”
“Ashley was our life saver with watching our new puppy! We had a family trip planned long before knowing when we’d get our puppy and the timing was such that we needed help! She met with us prior, and learned after that she needed to give two medications (which she was not troubled by in the least!) Ashley sent us regular photos and videos and we could tell our new fur baby was in excellent hands! She also accommodated our very late arrival to pick up. She has set the bar high, as this was our first experience! Your pet will be well loved with Ashley.”
“Watney loves visiting Anna and her dog Ruby! He always has a buddy with him throughout the day and Anna keeps an eye on him too. Ruby is kind enough to share her lounging bed and blankets. Couldn’t ask for a better stay!”
“Rachael was truly an angel sent from heaven. She accepted my last minute request for a two week stay, and was so kind and compassionate. I appreciated how she did not blow up my phone while I was away, but still notified me of important things. I could tell that my dog had an absolute blast with her family. She is my #1 sitter from now on whenever I go out of town. Thank you a million, Rachael.❤️”
“Rachel and her husband were everything I could’ve dreamed of and more. They took care of my girl like she was their own. She was enriched and given treats and love like I would’ve done for her. They even threw a special 4th of July party for the dogs and she came home with the cutest necklace. Not only that, but as I’m typing this she’s sprawled out on her side snoring after having an amazing weekend with new friends. I’ll be using Rachel again and again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hamtramck
Kayla was incredible with Suko. I could tell he was well taken care of because he kept begging me for treats and to go outside, haha~ I love it because I wanted him to have a vacation too while I was away. He's a senior pup now and I get nervous/anxious leaving him with anyone, but family (couldn't this time because all my family was on the trip). I would trust Kayla again with Suko any time. She sent photos every day and kept me updated. You can't go wrong with her!
10/10 he took Evie in on a few days prior, that right there is enough for me, he sent beautiful pictures of my Evie. Not only that but Ekow is able to take care of hyper active dogs, who need to do alot, and sometimes have trouble listening. That is what you call a sitter, will definitely book with him again!!
Yelitsa did such a wonderful job with our dog Mia! I received so many updates, at least 2 a day. She did well with administering my dog’s daily medication and keeping up with our regular feeding schedule in her home. Overall, my dog looked super happy every day and Yelitsa went above and beyond with exercise, treats and play time. We will definitely be booking with her again and I’d recommend her to anyone in need of pet sitting!
Kira's been our rover since we moved to Detroit, and our dog's hung out with her and her dog many times at this point. Our dog clearly loves staying over, which is rare for her, and it speaks to Kira's ability to care for animals and be responsible and present. Will continue to trust her with my dog for as long as she's willing!

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.

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.
95% of sitters in Hamtramck 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 Hamtramck 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 Hamtramck.
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 Hamtramck. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Hamtramck 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.
