“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!"”
“Soooo happy to have our fur baby stay with Lindsey and Justin and family! Our boy has never been so calm as he was after his stay with you guys. Thank you for caring for our boy like your own!!!”
“We had a wonderful boarding experience with Lia and Jonathan when Orla stayed overnight at their home. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely comfortable leaving her in their care. They did an amazing job keeping us updated on how Orla was adjusting, sending photos and videos that really reassured us she was happy and settling in well. It was clear that they genuinely care about the dogs they host and treat them like part of the family. One thing that especially touched us was how gentle and sweet Orla was with their 18-month-old son. It was so heartwarming to see their son completely fall in love with her, and it showed how calm and well-handled the environment in their home is. We are very grateful for the care and attention they gave Orla and would absolutely trust them with her again. Highly recommend Lia and Jonathan to anyone looking for a loving, attentive place for their dog to stay.”
“Best decision I ever made to book not only through Rover but with Mayrannie. She was absolutely wonderful sent me pictures and updates on how he was adjusting everyday. She was so so sweet to my boy!! I know he had a great time there because when I picked him up he was so happy and he was so exhausted from playing with her dogs. He's been passed out since we brought him home. We will definitely bring him there again. Thank you so much for everything we were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries knowing he was happy and being taken good care of.”
“When I drop Lemon off she doesn’t even look back at me because she knows she’s getting the utmost love and care. I enjoy the updates and photos of Lemon eating well, exercising/playing and sleeping with happiness in her body language. I always know that she’s in great hands.”
“Chelsie has a great setup for boarding your dogs. She communicates with updates daily. Drop off and pick up are super easy. Will definitely be utilizing again. Appreciate and trust her taking care of our dog!”
“First time with my puppy. Jamie was super nice with her (and her energy). She was very happy with Jamie's dogs and had a great time. (was exhausted after) . Nina will come back for sure. THNX”
“I could not have asked for a better care for my fur kids Kodak and Luna. Andrew and Morgan were great. They sent lots of pictures showing how well Kodak and Luna were getting along. I was afraid the fur kids may not want to come home with me. I hope they will be available next time I need to board the fur kids.”
“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!”
“I can not reccomend Brittany enough. Thanks to her and Steven we had our best vacation ever. She updated us with photo's, and even a vidio. For the first time we were not worried at all about are dog while traveling. We feel blessed to have found her and her family. Book with Britanny, you will be glad you did.”
“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!”
“She is amazing!! Other boarders would send us maybe one pic a day. We got a load of pics three times a day. She had everything only thing we had to bring was food and the pup. She understands animals and their behaviors. Would recommend her to EVERYONE!!”
“Bella recieved excellent care during her stay enjoying walks and company of other pets. Annmarie was able to get Bella settled in comfortably and kept us updated. Highly recommended and Bella has now found a second home.”

“Diane is amazing. Constant pictures and action shots with relevant captions. Lexi will absolutely miss them and I can always look forward to any vacation without worrying about who is taking care of her. 10/10 Gracias!”
“Shivambika was very responsive when our dog was with her for three days. We received updates daily and our dog was very well taken care of. Will definitely use her again for future trips!”
“Sydney did amazing with our girl Paprika. She’s a big scary pit mix who just wants constant love and attention. Sydney sent so many updates, especially on the first night letting us know Paprika was settling in well, and gave her so many sweet cuddles. She even crocheted her a little hat! We will definitely book with Sydney again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Imlay City on Rover is $41.63 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 724 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.
