“Emily and her daughter are really great with my dog. He has stayed with them a couple of times now. They were very communicative, and sent lots of pictures. The pictures always make me feel more at ease. It's really nice to have people that you feel like you can really trust with your dog.”

“This was our second time using Mariah & Max and they were once again awesome! Super communicative, pictures sent daily, and our dogs came home tired and smiling! We highly recommend using Mariah & Max.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Matt! He was incredible with our two boys, so communicative, and made sure they got ample time outside and on trails! Very happy we found him!”

“Kasey was an excellent choice for watching our puppy, Rocky. She provided regular updates throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. When we returned, Rock was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Kasey for pet sitting!”


“Joni is absolutely the BEST! I have a 6 year old Australian Cattle Dog that loves constant attention. I’ve tried traditional boarding in the past at a “pet retreat” but my dog does not typically get along well with other dogs even though I’ve socialized him with training classes, walks, and with other dogs visiting the house. I was worried about leaving my dog for a week since he can’t be with other dogs but Joni handled it with no issues! Joni offered a meet and greet for my dog to get acclimated with her home and a few treats to entice him back. Communication was frequent while I was out of town and Joni even provided pictures. Bottom line, you can’t find anyone better than Joni to care for your dog and I will be booking with Joni in the future!”
“Jordan took care of our pup for over a week, sending regular updates and pictures to show us how she was doing. He communicated well and was very accommodating to our schedule and our dog’s needs. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. Just note that your dog might have so much fun that they’ll be sad to leave Camp Jordan!”

“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.”

“Once we saw Wendy's place and met her and the family we knew Loki would be with caring hands for his week away from home. Thank you Wendy for your perseverance with Loki's ear treatment!”

“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.”

“It was so convenient having Victoria and Rishi watch our Pepper over Easter weekend. She seemed to have a blast with all her pack buddies while we were on vacation- even got to go on a couple nature walks! We were nervous never having used Rover, but we will definitely leave her with R. and V. again. Thanks for being Pepper's home away from home!”

“Love Fay, what a wonderful dog sitter, I’d trust Fay with my kids if I had any small children anymore. Fay was very caring, sent me photos around the clock of my dog’s activities which included long walks, napping, making friends with Fay’s dog. It was nice my dog Bao had a friend for a while in her care. I’d rebook with Fay in a heartbeat. Wonderful person.”

“Martha was very personable in our arrangement. She sent several messages to let us know how our Gabbi was doing. We've got a real spoiled dog and she wasn't used to being away, but Martha allowed her to sleep with her to keep her calm. That was much appreciated.”

“My dog, Juno, seemed happy when we picked her up! We liked being able to get pictures of Juno while we were gone! We will request to book Brianna again if we go on vacation in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Maple Rapids 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 Maple Rapids.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Maple Rapids 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.
