“Extremely friendly and helpful. Andrea took great care of Zia for us over a weekend. We received tons of pictures of her having lots of fun. We'll be using Andrea in the future if we need our pup boarded again.”
“Kristen is a 5-star sitter! As a first-time user and owner of a nervous Golden Retriever, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. They were communicative, caring, and made Katz feel comfortable immediately. Highly recommend for anyone with a “shy or anxious pup!"”
“I think Shivambika did a very good job with my 7 lb. Yorkshire Terrier. She learned about and respected some of his breed’s idiosyncrasies. She took him into her yard, on a leash, & to a nearby trail. No doubt he loved that. It was my fault that he had to be exposed to another dog for his last 3 days, as I initially got my return date wrong . But he dealt with that pretty well, it seems.”
“Thanks Diane and Grimm for taking good care of Lexi and Coops!! We appreciated all the updates and pictures as well! Definitely will rebook in the future! Chris and Lisa! 😀”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving Rosie with Lyndsey and Justin for vacation. They were close to home, took one dog at a time, and gave us updates and cute pictures. Thank you very much!”
“Chelsie took great care of my little guy, Finn. I met her before my trip and felt comfortable leaving him with her right away. You can tell she put a lot of thought and love into making her home a great place for dogs to stay. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Finn was in good hands. I'll definitely board him with Chelsie again.”
“Andrew and Morgan take such good care of our Kaci and communicate with us so well. They treat her as their own and we could not recommend them enough. The photo shoot was absolutely adorable. You can really trust them with your pup's safety and well-being!”
“Jessica and Matt are AMAZING sitters! We could tell that they truly love dogs! They sent pics and updates daily and made us feel at ease about leaving our baby for 9 nights which is a record for us. We were fully able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about his safety or well being. We highly recommend them!”
“This was one of the best experiences I have had while using rover. She regularly sent updates and pictures which was great to see. Her and her family took wonderful care of my dog, taking him on many walks, playing, and just relaxing. I cannot put into words how much peace of mind it provided and how sweet it was that they cared for my senior dog in all the perfect ways. Thank you so much!”
“Lia, Jonathan and their entire family are amazing! This was the first time I have used Rover, so I was very nervous. Jonathan and Lia sent updates, photos and videos throughout the day. They put my mind at ease and I was able to have a wonderful vacation. I think my sweet girl misses them, but we already booked her next two stays with them!”
“We had such a great support from Mayrannie. She sent us Dingdong's picture everyday and seemed Dingdong was also happy. Definitely we recommend Mayrannie. Fence wall is completely surrounded at her home and it's spacious so any energetic dog can be best fit. Mayrannie's dog Kiara is also very nice. We will ask her help again.”
“Thank you so much to Dan and Clair! Your fenced in yard was perfect for Chili! We loved the pictures and communication - definitely would use again and highly recommend!”
“Annmarie did a phenomenal job with my dog Xena! Her dogs were very friendly, and got along great. I came with very short notice, and she was very attentive, flexible and and communicative, and I'd 100% go back to her in the future. Extremely happy with my experience!”
“Cheri is great with Vinnie! I never have to worry when I’m out of town that Vinnie is safe and enjoying his time with her family! I love the updates she provides and the love/attention Vinnie receives.”
“Audrey is a wonderful, loving caregiver. I felt at ease leaving our fur baby with her. He had never been in contact with other dogs and she reported almost daily. No issues found. She sent a video and pictures.Audrey has a nice backyard for dogs. Your dog will be well cared for. I would 100% use her services again.”
“Laura took such great care of our dog, Telly, while we were on vacation. She sent lots of updates with photos and Telly always looked comfortable and happy like she was on her own vacation. Laura carefully read our instructions for care and feeding at drop-off and made sure she understood Telly’s needs before we left. She even cooked Telly more chicken to top her dog food with once the chicken we provided ran out. You can tell Laura truly loves dogs and I had no worries about leaving our pup with her for the week. I would definitely hire Laura again and highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a dog sitter!”
“Tetyana is the best of the best! She goes above and beyond each time to love on my dog and make sure he feels safe and relaxed. She sends pictures and tells us about his day, which makes leaving him a little easier.”
“Eunju spoiled our labrador completely! She took her to various parks for long walks and puppy adventures. Eunju makes it easy to travel with peace of mind, sending daily updates & taking care of our dog so lovingly.”
“Carolina was absolutely amazing with Dixie. From the moment we connected, I felt at ease knowing my dog would be in caring and capable hands. She sent regular updates, photos, and gave so much love and attention to my Dixie —it was clear she genuinely care about dogs. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dogs and a tidy space. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with Carolina again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Imlay City 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 740 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Imlay City. 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.
95% of Imlay City 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 Imlay City 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 Imlay City 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 Imlay City.
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 Imlay City 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.
