“First time leaving our 2 yr old Bouvier with Rachel and Ivan, but we will definitely be reaching out again! They were great about communicating and sending pics. It was clear that they welcomed her fully into their home and routines. Loved seeing our dog interacting with their Lab and young daughter❤️❤️❤️”
“Kimberly & Jeremy were very welcoming to Murhpy Brown for her afternoon stay yesterday. This is the first time i have used this service, and it was a great experience. They were so nice and accommodating to my time schedule. Murhpy Brown was able to meet kids, which she does not have exposure to and that was good. They treated her like she was their own, so this made me feel very comfortable with them as dog sitters.”
“My 7-month old German Shepherd puppy Fish had a wonderful stay with Jennifer. She welcomed Fish as a family member right away and Fish was allowed to make herself comfortable, easing my mind while I was away. Moose became a quick dog buddy and Fish received plenty of action to satisfy her puppy energy. Jennifer provided updates and photos of Fish enjoying her stay. She was flexible in pick-up/drop-off times. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for a competent, compassionate caretaker of their pet.”
“GusGus definitely gives Coleen 5 stars, and so do I! Our little rescue guy spent 4 days with Coleen and her husband and was happy and relaxed the entire time. He got lots of cuddles, walks and care. It was our first time with Coleen and surely will not be the last. The communication was clear, the atmosphere warm and friendly and the loving care was evident.”
“Stephanie and Scott took very good care of my dog who took a liking to both of them. I had several pictures about Lucy’s visit and was very pleased to see her say thanks when we left. Highly recommended.”
“Tracey took excellent care of our dog Honey while we were in town for the Ironman race. She was welcoming at drop off and Honey took to her right away. I was sent updates and photos during the pet sitting time which gave us relief seeing how well she was doing. I would book Tracey again 1000%. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl!!”
“We had an amazing experience with Bob. Our puppy loved it from the first moment, as Bob's place feels so welcoming. Wooded trails right beyond the house with a walking access to the dog beach at lake Leelanau was great. Bob has sent pictures of dogs having fun at the beach. Overall freedom for the dogs to walk in and out to the fenced backyard, being welcomed on the couch was such a loving & carrying environment and perfect solution for our Golder Retriever, we will be there again and again when in Traverse City area!”
“Daniel took excellent care of our collie Emma. He gave us daily updates. We particularly liked the fact that he took her (and his own two dogs) for walks multiple times daily. Will definitely use his services again!”

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.
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.
98% of sitters in Leland 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 Leland 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 Leland.
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 Leland 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.

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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
