“Erin is an extraordinary canine caregiver. Her warm demeanor, knowledge, and welcoming environment are very beneficial for those of us who entrust her with stellar care of our dogs. Our Izaak loves to be,at Erin's. The wholesome interaction with other dogs in Erin's charge, is truly a growing experience. Unequivocally recommend Erin!”
“Great sitter! Sent pictures how my Harley was doing. Great picture! Harley was very happy with Kim. Kim was very kind and patient with Hailey. I felt Harley was very safe with Kim and she spoiled him like he was one of her own. Excellent 👌.”
“Jessie and family are the best! Mya gets excited to be there before i can get her out of the car- Thank you so much for taking her- you know she will be back to play with you all!”
“Sabrina along with her husband and children spoiled chance all weekend. He had a wonderful time playing with their pup. I’ve loved getting all of the pictures and updates daily. I would recommend Sabrina for any of your pet care needs.”
“Edward was awesome according to Rocky! LOL. Seriously though, it was a smooth process to meet & greet Ed and then to have him take care of our "baby". As first time users of Rover.com, our reluctance to get a sitter was over after talking to Ed. He was very accommodating in answering any questions we had. Ed was very friendly and nice to us and Rocky. His fenced backyard also added to our comfort in knowing Rocky would be safe! Definitely a Keeper!!”
About: I love all animals, and creatures! My goal in life is to own an animal sanctuary one day, to house rescued animals. I’ve been caring for animals since I was a pre-teen, and it’s where my passion and empathy lie. I’m very calm, loving, and would be honored to give you relief in knowing your fur children are left in good care. I have two dogs of my own and a few hermit crabs, and I even feed the squirrels, bunnies, & birds that frequent our outside space. Reach out! I’m excited to help! This is my business. I’m fully invested in expanding, and being available to current and future clients. Animals bring me joy. Caring for them, keeping them safe, and in their routine, in their families absence, is what I’m here for. A long with lots of love and play time! I’d prefer to do home drop in’s, but my dogs are very friendly and love to play. I have a fenced in yard, but at this point unless emergency, or further discussion I prefer to drop by your home!
“Jeanne is simply amazing. I trust her boarding my pet for any duration that i am gone! She sends out multiple pictures and updates daily. I would recommend her to anyone 💓”
“We had our two small dogs stay with Sarah for a little over a week. She was amazing! Her communication and kindness were great and our dogs had an amazing stay! We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy person to watch your pets!”
“Matha has taken such special care of my boy. She's made him part of her family, and he's become part of her dog's pack. They are such special people, and I cannot recommend them enough. It's a perfect, loving home for anyone's best friend.”
“Nikki and her family watched our two Aussies over the new year holiday. The girls were so very loved and well taken care of. She sent daily pictures of the girls playing out in the snow and messages with updates that made our time away so much easier. I highly recommend Nikki for your dog sitting needs. We will definitely be requesting her services in the future.”
“From the moment we arrived at Jacklyn's place my fur baby was relaxed and happy. Jacklyn is a good communicator. I texted her that we were running a 15 minutes behind to pick Baddoo up and she got back to me right away. I received updates and pictures. It's nice to know that if I want another Frankenmuth getaway that there is a great sitter available!”
About: I've had dogs since I was a child. I've had lots experience with potty training dogs. Many friends and family have trusted me with their pets (dogs, cats, lizards) while they were on vacation all in their own home. I currently have a large fenced in yard that my sheepadoodle loves to run around in and play fetch. All pets will be kept separate from each other during their stay. They will be cuddled and loved as our own! I work part time 2 minutes away from my home and come home around lunch time to let my dog out so I could very well let yours out as well. I have a large fenced in yard, I also have two large crates in our house and a larger cage in our garage to use if needed. Your pet would be kept inside our home and treated as our own.

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.
97% of sitters in Hemlock 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 Hemlock 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 Hemlock.
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 Hemlock. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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 Hemlock 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.
