“Sara and John Patrick took exceptional care of our senior girl. We received regular updates with photos of how she was doing and all of the love she was getting from the family. We are always hesitant to leave her with someone who isn't family, especially as she has gotten older, but we had no concerns after dropping her off. We will highly recommend them to friends and hope to rebook with them when the need arises.”
“KellyAnna was awesome to work with. Quick to respond initially. She was gracious enough to let us come over and get acquainted. My first visit I wasn't able to bring my dog with me. I had a special circumstance come up and we were able to come up with a good solution. Them we all came and visited the next day and everything went great. This was my first rover experience. I am so thrilled with this service. And KellyAnna was so helpful, I am very thankful for your ability to harbor Otis for 4 nights. Thank you, thank you!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Alex and her wonderful family! They took such amazing care of my dog, Rose, and made her feel right at home. It was clear from the start how much love and attention they gave her, and I was so grateful for the updates and photos throughout her stay. Rose came back happy and relaxed, and I know she had a great time. I highly recommend Alex for anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and loving sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!💕🐶”
“I was happy with the care she provided for my fur babies!! I felt completely comforted because she sent pics and videos for me to see!! Thank you so much and I will be using her again!!!”
“Michelle is an amazing host who clearly loves dogs and cats! She is thoughtful, an excellent communicator, and a true animal lover. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone, and we look forward to having our beloved Polly stay with her again in the future. Highly, highly recommended!”
“Cari was absolutely wonderful & I cannot say enough good things about her! She kept Charlie while my husband and I took a 10-day trip, and being a “pandemic puppy” I was terrified about leaving him, but Cari put me at ease. Her gentle, calm, nurturing demeanor was exactly what we all needed. She was fantastic about providing updates, took him on lots of walks, and spoiled him like he was her own. I was so nervous about leaving an already nervous dog, but by the end of our trip, Charlie and Cari were fast friends! I am so grateful we found Cari and will definitely book her again for our future travels!”
About: I am an MSU alum graduated from MSU College of Veterinary Medicine in 2021, and a huge animal lover! I have had many dogs and cats growing up so i have always had furry friends as a huge part of my life. I began pet sitting for my parents friends when i was in grade school and continued whenever a friend asked throughout college. Throughout veterinary school I was a Rover sitter and pet sit furry friends locally as well as my classmates animals during breaks and holidays. I always make sure to discuss what is going to be most comfortable and convienient for the animal and their dog or cat mom/dad! I am a small animal resident at MSU and I am looking forward to helping take care of my communities' animals at work and in my free time!! From my career, to my beagle buddies at home, animals are my life. I am so excited for the opportunity to get to know other animal lovers in my area while taking care of their babies!! I am a full time veterinarian but looking to help on evenings, weekends, and holidays with drop-in visits, boarding, pet sitting, and walks for fellow animal lovers in the mid-Michigan area Being a veterinarian, I am very comfortable taking care of all animals and have 2 dogs of my own with health conditions that I lovingly care for each day! I will take care of your animals as if they were my own and offer as much love and commitment as I care for my patients!
“Val and Theresa are the BEST!! It’s clear that they genuinely care about animals. They took the time to get to know Stella’s personality and individual needs. Stella is a thinker and likes to be engaged. They kept her mind busy with lots of puzzles and tricks. We appreciated and looked forward to the frequent pictures, videos and updates. It helped put our mind at ease, and assured us that our fur baby was being well taken care of while we were away. We’re beyond thankful for the care that they provided. Stella cannot wait to go back!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 4 years old, mainly my own until about age 11 when I started to help out taking care of family and friends dogs as well! I’ve been trusted to walk, feed, sit, and bathe their pets since then. I’m great with pets, and enjoy playing with them as well! I’m currently working a part time job that is very flexible. I typically work 8:30am-3pm Monday-Thursday, but I can easily adjust my hours to fit your pups needs. If your pup needs constant supervision I’m free Friday-Sunday for boarding! When I pet sit in my home it just depends on what the owner and pet is comfortable with. I’ll follow the instructions on how to care for their pet because each one if different. Each one will be cared for to my best ability!
“Madison was amazing, my Little dog Benny just loved her. She took him for lots of walks which he loves. I feel she took excellent care of my dog. She sent me pictures everyday and made me feel so comfortable I could enjoy my vacation and not worry about Benny.”
“Meghan was a Godsend!! She took my dog with only one day's notice and was so cheerful and easy to work with. She sent me pictures throughout the weekend so I knew my dog was happy, which made me have a better time on my trip :) Can't thank Meghan enough and will definitely use her again - highly recommend!!”
“Ellen is a wonderful pet sitter! Her yard is a perfect poochie paradise! We felt very secure with our fur baby in Ellen’s care. She sent many updates & photos. Highly recommend!”
“Makayla was absolutely amazing! We honestly really appreciate her being able to take in Rafa with such short notice. Even though it was only for a day, I was still worried about leaving him, and really appreciated the videos and pictures that she sent. It eased my mind to know that my boy was enjoying himself and that he had a good time.”
About: Hi there! My name is Taniya and I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for the past 4 years for families in my neighborhood. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine I absolutely love dogs! I have a sweet pup of my own named Pepper. She’s a 2 year old toy poodle and Yorkie mix with a big personality in a small body! While she stays at home with my mom, I bring all that love and experience with me when I care for other fur babies. I treat every dog like they’re my own safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, a walk, or just some cuddle time, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work at Michigan State University, but my schedule is flexible, and I’m available Monday through Sunday for walks, drop-ins, and cuddles! If you’re located near MSU’s campus, you’re in luck there are so many beautiful trails and green spaces I can take your dog to for fun, safe, and enriching walks. I’m all about making sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own.

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities.

In my client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely from feeding schedules and walk times to any special care needs. I always make sure pets feel loved, whether that means extra belly rubs, playtime, or simply keeping them company.

“I am so pleased to have found Adriana. She took great care of our dog Reeba and we plan to continue using Adriana’s services in the future too. I will recommend Adriana to everyone.”
“Took the booking last minute as my original sitter fell through. Kept me updated throughout Storms stay with her and Storm was a very tired girl when she got home. Made sure to know all important information for Storm that was needed to make sure the provided care was accurate. Will definitely recommend Heaven to others and use her again”
“McKenna cared for Charlie as if he were her own. He had a wonderful time playing with Togo and Grizzly, and she kept us updated several times a day. The huge backyard gave Charlie plenty of space to play, and he slept like a baby when we brought him home. We would be happy to use her services again!”

A truly amazing place to leave your four-legged pals! Val went above and beyond in her care for Cassius. She not only cared for Cassius and kept him on his medication routine, she worked with him to learn new commands, be comfortable with grooming, ignore other dogs, drop toys, and stay on a "place." While Val will tell you she's not a dog trainer, she is constantly actively engaging and doing positive reinforcement. Cassius is not normally good with dogs, so I wasn't sure that this would be a fit. But the miraculous Pearle actually ended up being a huge bonus, as it gave Cassius a chance to be near a non-reactive dog. Val initiated careful, slow, progressive exposure so that baby steps were taken and conquered. So many amazing photos and videos (really, some lovely portraits--a 5th career as a pet photographer on the horizon?) to show just how much fun they are having together and how much he learned. Val is an excellent communicator and takes everything about the dogs who stay with her seriously. I truly felt that my dog was enjoying his time staying at her house and I fully trusted that he was in the best of hands. Can't say enough good things. Hope to have another chance to have Cassius stay again soon!
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.

There are 244 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lansing. About 93% of Lansing sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
