Dawn and Eric are amazing. I was worried about leaving my 2 babies with them. (Havanese and Maltipoo). She sent me updates and pictures of my dogs with the other dogs she was boarding. She was very understanding about the traffic on 94 as I was later than expected and had to take the side streets from Detroit to Saint Clair Shores. I will definitely use their services again.

An excellent Rover experience!! Dawn turned what could have been a very stressful situation into an excellent outcome. Our small elderly dog needed medical attention on the very first day of our trip, and Dawn handled everything calmly and compassionately. She took her to our preferred vet, carefully managed all medications, and even prepared homemade dog food as recommended by the vet. Dawn kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious our dog was receiving lots of attention, comfort, and loving care. We truly appreciated Dawn’s communication, flexibility, and willingness to go above and beyond during an unexpected situation. We would absolutely book with Dawn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and trustworthy sitter — especially for senior dogs or pets with extra needs.

Schedule

Being a pet sitter is my full time job. My house sitting hours are 6 pm to 6 am with one drop in midday included in the price. Additional drop ins would need to be added to the booking. Dogs boarding in our home are let out every 2 hours at least. Someone is usually always at home to care for your pets.

Safety, trust & environment

We are very careful with dogs that we walk to keep them accounted for. Dogs in our home are kept gated from our front door to reduce the risk of escape. Our backyard is fully fenced. Dogs that are being house sat/ boarded will be walked daily if you provide an adequate leash/ harness/ collar. Our home is fully fenced in the backyard and reinforced around the bottom for small dogs to prevent escape. We do ask that all boarded dogs be crate trained. This is for their own protection and gives them a safe environment of their own.
