My dog, Maddie, stayed with Dan for 2 days/1 night. She was happy and tired when I picked her up at the end of her stay! Dan and his wife took very good care of her and treated her like part of the family. Dan is very responsive and helpful with answering questions and he sent plenty of pictures and videos with updates on how she was doing.

We left our two kittens with Jenny for two weeks and she took really good care of them, she kept us updated and sent us photos of our babies while we were away. We will definitely reach out to her whenever we require a boarding service again, we really recommend her!

Rachel was absolutely amazing! My dog is a rescue that is anxious around strangers. Rachel did an amazing job making her feel at home, and taking excellent care of her. She sent photos while I was away so I knew everything was going well. I would use her again in a heartbeat!

We were SO pleased with how Erin and Brian took care of Willow! Even with little quirks that Willow had, they were willing to adjust to make her comfortable. We would highly recommend them to watch your fur babies.

This was our first time leaving Boston and Felix made us feel like he was loved, safe, and loving life! He opened his home and welcomed our very busy puppy with open arms. We got pictures and even a video. Boston had a great experience his first time away from us and we would trust Felix anytime with our fur baby ❤️

Our dog came home so happy and well cared for from his time with Emily! It was clear that he was well-loved, had a consistent and stable routine, and had felt comfortable at the house. We appreciated all the pictures and notes throughout his stay. I hope Emily is available every time we need to go out of town!

Our Happy had a very successful and positive stay with Tracy. As a first time user of Rover, we were very fortunate to find Tracy! She arranged a meet and greet, explained her set up, introduced her family and pets to us and our dog, and answered many questions for us (this was Happy's first boarding experience). All went very well, she sent daily reports and fun pictures. This allowed us to enjoy our time away even more, knowing our pup was in good hands (and laps) 😊. We plan to reach out to Tracy each time we need boarding for our Happy, highly recommend!

We were more than happy with leaving our dog Jack at Terry‘s house. Terry and his wife spoiled Jack with lots of love and we were sent pictures throughout the week. We would definitely use them again. I highly recommend anyone that loves their dog they will not find a better place. Our dog Jack loves it there.

Sabrina was absolutely wonderful and a perfect fit for my dog! She provided updates through pictures and videos of my dog and made me feel comfortable with the fact that I was away from my pup. She also took her for walks throughout the day, which I know my dog Eleanor just loved.

I was incredibly anxious to leave my also anxious dogs at a “strangers” house for the very first time, but MJ was so kind and assuaged my anxiety by keeping in great communication. My girls had a very fun time at the farm and I know that I have a safe option now to leave my puppies when I go out of town

I am completely at ease when we leave our german shorthair pointer with this family. We get plenty of updates and it looks like Daisy gets plenty of playtime with their pet and plenty of attention from the humans. The second time we brought her there she ran right up to the house like she remembered the good memories she made there the last time.

I boarded my cat Libby for the very first time. I was very nervous about boarding/leaving her but I was gone too long to leave her alone. I found Lenore on Rover. After looking at several people which did not impress me, I found Lenore and immediately liked her profile. During the process of signing up, Lenore sent several messages asking about Libby. It made me feel like she really cared about animals. We left Libby with Lenore for 9 days. She texted with me and sent me pictures every day!! She showed so much love and care for her I was afraid Libby might want to stay! Lenore really does go above and beyond to take care of your fur babies! I could not be happier. Lenore made my holiday trip so enjoyable. I could relax knowing Libby was well cared for. I will definitely use her again and cannot recommend her enough!!!

FAQs for Boarding - Kent City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Kent City on Rover is $55.5 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 464 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kent 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.

91% of Kent 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 Kent 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 Kent 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 Kent 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 Kent 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.
