Karen was simply amazing. She took wonderful care of our dog, Daisy. And we would absolutely have her watch Daisy again. Karen offered Daisy healthy treats throughout her stay (after making sure it was okay with us). She sent pictures and updates everyday. Daisy was often cozy, comfortable, and snuggled up. Overall, it was obvious to us that Karen is a real animal lover. We are so grateful to have found her.

Kelly and Brandon are fantastic sitters - I couldn’t ask for them to do anything differently. My pup was safe, well cared for, and tired out by all the fun she was having.

I can’t say enough positive about our first experience with rover which was with Kelsey and Kyle. They took tremendous care of our little yorkie girl who usually is clingy about us but when we picked her up and Kyle left the room she whined and in the two years we’ve had her, we had never heard her whine. They also sent us pics of our girl enjoying her day!! They’re great!!

Shashank was a wonderful dog sitter for Artie! He was very flexible with my last minute schedule and he was thorough in asking questions about Artie to make sure he provided a comfortable environment. I received consistent and fun updates throughout his stay. I can tell Artie really enjoyed his vacation! I would highly recommend this sitter and will be reaching out again.

Darcy and Danielle were outstanding sitters for Remy. They were very communicative and paid attention to all the details. I could really tell that Remy got so much love, and he really seemed happy when I picked him up. I would definitely recommend them and I’m looking forward to the next booking with them.

Marija did a fabulous job with my senior dog! My dog was there for 1 1/2 weeks and she got to know her very well. Meds were given and she paid close attention to her special needs. Received many awesome photos and videos which put our minds at ease that she was happy and having a good time. Would highly recommend

Zachary was fantastic hosting Spooky for an extended stay. He was very patient with Spooky building up his confidence in his temporary home and sent lots of photos and updates about how he was doing. I can tell from the photos Spooky became quite comfortable with Zachary and in his house. I would definitely request Zachary watch Spooky again.

Sheila is great. I had to leave my two dogs for the first time and was nervous about it. One of my dogs is old and mostly deaf so he can be a bit skittish. Sheila was great! Not only is she good with my dogs but she is very knowledgeable on dogs - especially older dogs. She kept us in the loop while we were away with daily pictures and text messages. This made us feel very comfortable that my dogs were being well cared for. Thanks for loving my pups while I was away Sheila.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Howell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Howell on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 940 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Howell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

99% of Howell 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 Howell 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 Howell 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 Howell.

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 Howell 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.
