“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful! She was so easy to communicate with, sent daily updates and pictures, and was always very responsive. Our dog had an ear infection when we dropped her off and she went above and beyond in helping her get the right level of care. We couldn’t be more grateful for the peace of mind she provided us with while taking care of our dog.”
“Jason and Kristen and their kids were awesome. They sent lots of pictures and made sure to let us know how our dog was doing. When they sent pictures you could tell he was comfortable and happy. He also loved playing with the kids.”
“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since before I completed my undergraduate degree in Animal Science, taking part in rescue organizations and volunteering as a foster. I also have 2 dogs (7 and 4 y/o) that I raised since they were puppies. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and cats. If your pets have any special needs, let me know and we can discuss! I'm currently finishing up a PhD in animal science at MSU, so I have a somewhat flexible schedule that can be adjusted based on your needs. I am a graduate student, so my schedule is flexible as I build it myself. I can adjust based on pet care needs, as well as do check-ins throughout the day. Being an owner of two very different dogs, I understand that there are different requirements and needs for each pet, so I will take care of your pet based on any of the requirements you set.
“Christine was amazing with our 11 yr. old pitbull. She gave him lots of love, attention and extra care when he was anxious. Christine treated him as one of her own. She sent pics and updates every day. Responded In a timely manner and even helped us feel less anxious while being away. She follows directions and uses good discernment. Highly recommend Christine and will definitely have her watch our pup if needed.”
“MICHELLE IS AMAZING!! She has house sat, done drop ins and has boarded our dog many times. She is so thoughtful and compassionate towards dogs. She has a huge fenced in yard that my dog loves. Michelle sends pictures and a daily review of activities and opinions of how my dog or her dog are viewing the visit. I laugh and look forward to reading the fun and lively updates. I HIGHLY recommend Michelle for any dog sitting needs!”
“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 :)”
“Melissa is awesome. She paid very close attention to my dog Tulu and they bonded quickly. Melissa sent pictures every day sometimes twice a day with nice comments. I recommend her highly and I won’t hesitate to book her again.”
“Dublin stayed with Brooke & Buddy for 2weeks. He’s always excited when he realizes he’s staying with Brooke. He’s usually tired after picking him up. And I think he may lose some weight which is a good thing.”
“Molly is great! She has watched Scout twice, and she is prepared for his high energy personality. I love that she has a fenced in backyard he can explore, and her dog Spade is a sweetie who gets along with everyone.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for both dogs and cats since I was 16. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to provide consistent, loving care while they’re away. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs, whether that means energetic playtime for puppies, patience, or gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their home environment. I’m currently a full time graduate student at Michigan State University. I’m away for classes on Monday’s, Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s for 3 hours each day. I’m not employed so I’m able to be home and care for your pet as needed! When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and welcomed. I provide a calm, clean environment, stick closely to their usual feeding and exercise routines, and give them plenty of attention and affection. Pets get regular potty breaks, playtime, and rest, and I adjust care based on their age, energy level, and personality. Whether it’s extra play for energetic pets or a quiet, cozy space for seniors, I treat every pet like part of the family.
“Honestly, the only review you need is that our dog jumped up in excitement when she saw Jordan for a second round of pet sitting. But if you want more, know that Jordan creates an inviting and warm environment for your pup, where they can play or relax as much as they want, and he sends pictures so you know they’re doing well while you’re away.”
“Sara was amazing! Really communicative and made everything so easy! Our dog loved the extra attention of having a whole family around seemed totally at ease. I would recommend Sara and John to anyone in the area!”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was young and many friends and family rely on me to walk, feed, give medications and care for their animals. I have also volunteered at a local animal shelter for a few years growing up and I currently work at a animal daycare and boarding facility. Im currently working a part time job so my schedule is super flexible during the week day! I am also available any time during the weekends. I have a large open yard for your fur baby to run around and play as well as large rooms in my home to roam around. I have a older friendly dog and cat to keep your fur baby company. I can also accommodate anything that is needed to make it comfortable and stress free as possible.
About: I've been caring for / fostering animals for 6+ years. As a medical student, I'm organized, reliable, and calm under pressure, and I'm comfortable giving medications and following detailed care instructions. I'll stick to your pet's routine and send updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they're doing. I study from home most days, so your pet won't be left alone for long stretches. I'll keep them on their usual feeding and walk schedule and make plenty of time for play and attention. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with lots of yard space and nearby walking trails. I keep doors closed and hazards out of reach, use a leash on every walk, and follow your instructions for food, medications, and emergencies.
“Kaylynn and Andrew took good care of Higgins. He came home happy and loved playing with their dog, Mobie. Easy to communicate with them. Would definitely have them watch Higgins again.”
“My dog, Pretzel, enjoyed his stay with Julie and friends. She is a great dog person. That is to say she was cheerful, relaxed and attentive to my dog. He got his exercise in and made himself at home.”
“Michaela did wonderful with our two dogs when we went away for a long weekend! Our older yorkipoo is blind and diabetic and Michaela kindly administered her meds on time and was very patient when working with an elderly dog. I highly recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Meridian Charter Township
Kimberly was great to work with! Sent pics of Millie every day and we were confident that she was in good hands. Her kids also love dogs, so it made us happy to have them play with her too. We’re having Kim watch Millie again for 2 weeks coming up soon, and feel great that Millie will be well taken care of.
Dustin and Sarah did a great job taking care of our Mina while we were away. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with handling dogs. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again, and would confidently recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive pet sitters.

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.
95% of sitters in Meridian Charter Township 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 Meridian Charter Township home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

- 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 Meridian Charter Township.
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 Meridian Charter Township 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.
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.
