“Caroline took amazing care of our older dog Lola. Compassionate and caring, Caroline spent extra time and attention, assuring that Lola was fed, had exercise and rest. Caroline’s care for our beloved pet exceeded our expectations. We will use her pooch paradise again.”
“Kelly and Brandon were kind and communicative in helping us to set up our first dog sitting experience for our puppies. They kept us updated w photos all weekend and the pups seemed to have a great time!”
“Barbara and Dirk and Zoe were amazing! They welcomed Oliver into their home with love and affection. He was so comfortable and at ease with them. He settled right in and quickly became part of their household. They send me photos and updates while we were gone and I could see he was happy and relaxed with them. We highly recommend them we will definitely leave Olie with them when we need to travel in the future. They are the best!💕”
“Karen was very loving towards my puppy. She sent regular updates with pictures. She was open to him sleeping in the bedroom as he’s accustomed to at home which I really appreciated. She also shared concerns about his eating and worked on a solution to get him to eat better while away from home. He was a happy pup with her.”
“Absolutely incredible!!! Took such good care of our pup while we were away. Kept us updated on how he was doing with lots of pictures. Was such a great experience and made us feel comfortable leaving our pup. We will definitely be using them again to watch Melo!”
“We feel so grateful to have found Toni! She took amazing care of our 7 month old pup who is currently needing extra care right now. She was very knowledgeable giving him his medication and eye drops and even gave my husband some tips on giving a wiggly pup eye drops. Toni had a special, safe set up for him and kept us updated with pictures and was really easy to communicate with. Toni went above and beyond caring for our puppy, we felt really comfortable leaving him in her care and will definitely use her in the future!”
“Zachary was great for the whole experience! It was the first time boarding our new dog, and Zachary came out to meet us and Pepper, answered questions we had, and Pepper seems like he had a great time! Zachary sent pics during our trip, and was fast and easy to communicate with, both leading up to the boarding dates and while we were away. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs and I have owned a dog for 40+years. I raised German Shepard and Pitbulls. Sadly, I lost both my Pitbulls last year. I love to walk dogs and snuggle as well. I am a retired teacher. I am trustworthy and understand the importance of loving and caring for all dogs. I am retired so I have flexibility. I am very busy with my grandchildren, but again, I am flexible. I will keep pets over night. I live in a condo and the community welcomes pets and there are all kinds of breeds. There is a nice grass area to walk the dogs with a lovely paved 1 mile loop to walk through a beautiful community.

“Laura was able to watch our dog for us last minute. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and easy and she was excellent about keeping us updated and sending photos. I would definitely board with her again.”
“Linda watched our girl for a week and we were able to have a great trip knowing she was in good hands! Our dog is older and takes several medications so we were very happy to find a place for her to stay where she could be well cared for in a quiet home environment instead of a boarding facility. Linda took very good care of her and sent us many photo updates! I would definitely reach out again for any future dog sitting needs. Thanks Linda! ?”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Howell on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 912 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.
