“Thank you Mary and Marty for taking care of of our Lola. We felt she was in good hands and got lots of TLC. We will call on you again whenever we need pet care. Wonderful.”
“Andrea and Paul were wonderful to my shy Harley girl. I left her there for a day to see how she would do with them . When I took her for the longer stay, she ran right up to Paul, so happy to see him. I can highly rec them as caring dog people.”
“Olivia recommended a 100%, she was so good with our Domino, she kept us updated everyday, sharing with her family, my dog had activity outside and with other dogs. Thank you and if is possible we will ask for her service again”
“My dog has horrible separation anxiety so I dread trips away from home. Using the warm and cozy home of Janis and Devin was the perfect solution. I received multiple pictures every day. I could tell my dog was happy and feeling a part of the family. When I picked him up he was not crazed and inconsolable. He also has not been extra anxious at home as he usually gets. I will use Janis and Devin again and again. I have the highest esteem and praise for their business. I HIGHLY recommend!”
“Lilliana is a pro! She anticipated every need for our pup. I really appreciate her expertise and communication while she cared for our dog. Our silver lab is nervous and Lily knew exactly how to make Daphne feel at home. I absolutely will hire her again! Thank you!”
“Andrew did a good job with my quirky little Maltese mix. He's clearly a dog lover and my Cooper seemed to fit right in. Appreciated the occasional picture or video. I will definitely use Andrew in the future.”
“My senior girl had a great stay with Christina! She treated her like her own and took exceptional care of her in my opinion. I would absolutely use her service again and recommend her to anyone looking for quality boarding in the area!”
“Hanna was excellent! She cared for my dogs attentively, asked questions and clarifications when needed. She provided many photos and hilarious commentary. My dogs adapted to her space and her pets readily, which was fantastic given that it was their first visit. Would use Hanna again in a heartbeat!”
“Victoria took really good care of Beans, kept me updated and always responded to my messages quickly. She was kind and had a great environment for pups. She took her for walks and let her sleep with her in the bed. Beans had a great time there!”
“Leandra did a great job taking care of Millie at my apartment. She was trustworthy and I could tell felt comfortable taking care of a rather anxious, but sweet little dog. I would rebook with her in a heartbeat.”
“Lynn was great with our little guy. She sent a lot of pictures and videos, was very responsive and took great care of him following all of our requests! Would definitely book her again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Harbert
I found Kelly when I was in a fairly last-minute need, and I am SO glad I did! From the meet-and-greet the day before I left, to sending reports and sweet photos each of the 4 times a day she visited my Velcro dog, to how quickly he (frequently suspicious of strangers) took to her, I can't recommend her highly enough. 15 out of 10!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Harbert 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 Harbert.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Harbert 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.
