“As any pet owner knows, finding a sitter you can completely trust is like striking gold. It’s not just about a service—it’s about finding someone who genuinely cares for your furry family member. I recently had the incredible good fortune to find Haley, who took amazing care of our dog, Polly. The peace of mind she gave us was invaluable. From the start, Haley was an amazing communicator, providing us with updates that let us know Polly was happy, safe, and loved. You can tell she genuinely cares deeply about every animal she welcomes into her home. Polly was happy and well-adjusted upon her return, which is the best indicator of the loving and attentive environment Haley provides. We are truly beyond grateful for her exceptional care. I highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for a fantastic pet sitter. We're already looking forward to Polly's next stay with her in the near future!”
“Kasey and her family are incredible, the communication and videos of our boy Mack throughout the stay were very comforting. They treated Mack like one of their own. Would highly recommend.”
“Victoria and Rishi are wonderful and our lab Simon loves them. On our second stay, he was so excited to see them and ran right inside without so much as a goodbye :). We fully trust them with our energetic boy.”
“My dog loved his stay with Jacqueline! She was very attentive and you can tell how deeply she cares for your fur baby! She communicated regularly with updates and photos while I was away. If I need a sitter again we definitely will book again with her!”
“Melissa was a wonderful sitter, sending photos & updates during my absence. My pup was happy to see me, but she also loved her time with the resident pup! We definitely want to see Melissa & Chiquita again.”
“Boji had yet another great time. He's super happy and ready to sleep the night away! Definitely book with him! They are the best out there and the most flexible!!”
“Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.”
“Paige did an excellent job with our Dolce. Each day, we received updates with pictures/videos alongside a summary of the day. Paige was also very good with communicating with us in a timely manner. Overall, a great experience! Thanks Paige!”
“Olivia is fantastic. Took the time to send photos and updates most every day. Zadie is a people lover and seemed to connect with Olivia from the very start. I will def be rebooking with her in the future.”
“My dog Duke’s visit with Ann was very good. She regularly sent pictures and updates, and took very good care of my fur baby. Ann said they had a nice time watching Duke. I will book with them again when the need arises. Thank you, Ann!”
“My dog Noah had a great time with Chris over the weekend. I appreciated the way Chris communicated about how he was doing, was responsive to my messages, and sent daily pictures of my pup.”
“Jordan’s communication was top notch!!! Jordan was very attentive to my concerns and was flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Most importantly, I felt like Willard was in good hands for the short time we were away. Jordan sent texts and pictures of Willard and kept us updated throughout the stay. Jordan is great!! Highly recommended sitter!”
“I appreciated Cari’s adaptability and the time she took to get to know my babies prior to their stay. Cari asked a lot of questions regarding how they liked/needed to be cared for, which I was truly grateful for, especially as my pups don’t leave home much. Cari sent me lots of pictures throughout their stay and provided regular updates as to Charlotte and Oliver’s well-being - this was great not only for me but for my (human) young kids who missed their brother and sister!”
“Alice is awesome. She was attentive, and also sent daily pics and updates, which was greatly appreciated. She made our first time using Rover a good one, we hope to be able to book with Alice again. Thank you :)”
About: I've grown up with spayed/unspayed dogs, tiny and medium sized, and have bathed them throughout the years. I'm less experienced with cats as I wasn't allowed one as a kid, but I would always play with and look after my friends' cats when I got the chance 😸 I'm currently a student at Michigan State University, with a part time job as an ice hockey referee. I am usually home 18 hours out of the day most of the days of the week! I live alone in an apartment on an upper floor. 650 sq. ft of space, so it's spacious. There is also an outdoor yard if needed. Caring for your pets will give me breaks between studying and homework! I will treat your pets as if they were my own, and making your pets happy will make me happy! 😊
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Lansing is $40
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lansing
Jennifer and her husband are the absolute best. When our dog stays with them, the treat her as their own. They are very mindful of our requests and her needs - she’s very nervous and takes some time to warm up. She is very communicative and sends lots of pictures. We always have peace of mind when Belle is with her!! On this most recent stay, we had travel delays that had us picking her up a full day late and they were so kind and understanding. They had her stay for that extra day without any complaint. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter for our sweet dog. Thank you Jennifer!
They were an amazing dog sitter! They were incredibly understanding and accommodating throughout the entire process, which made everything so much less stressful. It was clear they genuinely cared and made sure my dog was well taken care of. Communication was great, and they were flexible when needed. I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands and would definitely trust them again in the future. Highly recommend!
Lauren did a great job watching our fur baby. She communicated well and sent photos and videos. I could tell from the videos that our dog felt comfortable in her home. She also took our dog on walks and played fetch with her. It was a great visit, and I would have Pattie Cake stay with Lauren again.
Val took excellent care of our 10-year-old male dog. She was extremely reliable, sent lots of photos, and clearly knows what she’s doing. She was very conscientious about introductions with her dog Pearl, and they ended up getting along great. Val went above and beyond—making special Christmas treats, taking the dogs on walks in the woods, and letting them play on agility equipment in her backyard. We were thrilled and will absolutely be using Val again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lansing on Rover is $39.96 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 255 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lansing. 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.
100% of Lansing 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 Lansing 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 Lansing 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 Lansing.
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 Lansing 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.
