“They took good care of my pup. They welcomed us in their home and made sure Snuggz was accommodated. They were even so kind to provide a bowl since I forgot to bring one. The communication was also great when needed. I would recommend”
“Sarah took really good care of my Loki. It was his first time having a dog sitter and she ensured I received pictures, videos and updates about everything. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Highly recommend Amber! Our dogs looked so happy each time she sent pictures or videos, she has a great fenced in yard for them to run around in and even allows dogs on furniture and beds. Hands down my dogs favorite part I’m sure! Her sweet daughter even bought my dogs a toy, they love their new “baby”. Thank you Amber!!”
“Great communication. Easy drop-off/pick-up. Dogs seemed to have a great time and were happy as can be when we got them back. Will definitely use Nicole again! Highly recommend.”
“I felt very confident leaving my dog with Jenny. She related well to him and took him for a walk and ent pictures. She was very easy to work with and I could tell she really liked my dog. I am so happy to have found such a great dog sitter!”

“Ghost had an amazing time with Mariana! She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and responsive. Mariana provided regular updates and photos, and she even followed Ghost’s puppy schedule perfectly. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their dog!”
“Annie was great! For the first time returning from a trip, our dog, Roxy wasn't that excited to see us lol!! Annie did all the things that Roxy loves like to do like swimming, playing fetch and hanging with an adult. Annie even got Ro,y to socialize with a couple dogs which is incredible considering that Roxy is a shephard and not fond of other dogs. Annie was awesome! Great communication and doggie skills!”
“Hannah was a savior!! I had a last minute emergency moving from one state to another and she was fast to respond to me to take care of my dog. I hadn’t met her or used her before and her updates and care made me feel very comfortable as well as relieve my stress. My dog had plenty of playtimes with others and she gave me an update everyday. I would recommend her to anyone and thanked her a million times for the last minute arrangements?”
“Katie was great and looked after my dog as if it were her own. She communicated great and gave plenty of updates so I was could completely enjoy my vacation without worrying about my dogs well being!”
“Danielle was amazing with my senior[16] blind husky. All of her huskies are well trained and played very well with my dog. Danielle is very knowledgeable and I trust her to watch my senior husky with no worry. My dog tends to shut down around other people and completely ignore other dogs. When I picked her up she was very happy and playful with the other huskies after a couple days with them”

“Richard and Sarah were so great and loving with Charlie. Always responsive and were able to care for all of Charlie’s needs. I would definitely let Charlie stay with the again in the future.”
“Renae was absolutely fantastic! She was very attentive to any needs or wants we might have and took excellent care of our dog while watching him over night. She was very good at communicating and went above and beyond with our dog. We will absolutely be reaching out again in the future for any dog care we might need.”
“Finding the right person to care for my dog Shelby was a time-consuming process, particularly because she is 13 years old, requires separation from other dogs, and her sight and hearing are declining. Despite Brece residing an hour away from my home, he graciously offered to have a trial sleepover to see how Shelby would do at his home prior to my 12-day trip. The trial went well and Shelby had no difficulties staying with Brece during the trial. Although I informed Brece that Shelby typically skips a couple meals when I am away, he took the initiative to buy a nutritious broth to mix with her food, ensuring she would eat while I was gone. I am now giving the same broth to Shelby; thank you, Brece! Brece took her for walks a couple times each day, and I received updates along with adorable photos, and it was clear that Shelby was happy, safe, and loved. Once I returned home, Shelby was relaxed and wagging her tail. I would certainly choose to book with Brece again, and I highly recommend that you do the same. Again, thank you Brece for taking good care of my little girl.”

I can't say enough wonderful things about Christine! She was absolutely fantastic and was able to accommodate a last-minute booking for Lumiere, which I truly appreciated. She was so kind, accommodating, and made the whole experience stress-free. It's such a relief knowing he was in good hands, and Christine definitely gave me that peace of mind. I'm so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would happily book with her again!
I had no worries leaving Pinky with the family. She came back to me, happy and less timid. She got lots of interaction, attention and love. Maybe even a bit more spoiled. Lol. I would definitely choose the family again to watch over Pinky. They were quick to respond and send pictures. Very happy with the entire experience.
We couldn’t have asked for a more loving and caring dog sitter for our two dogs. Sonya and her family actively gave 100% excellent care. It started out as a weekend, and by necessity, ended up being more than a week long job. The entire time that our dogs were there, we received regular communications and photos of the dogs enjoying time outside, and indoors with the family. If you’re looking for someone who give your dog everything that they need, Sonya is the answer. Should we ever need a dog sitter again, we know where we’re going. Huge thank you to you Donya and your family!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Jackson is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $53 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
95% of sitters in Jackson 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 Jackson home-away-from-home, 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 Jackson.
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 Jackson 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 , 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 .
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.
