“Chandler boarded with Lia and Jonathan for the first time, he had a blast. I received regular updates and pictures of him interacting with their dog and another dog that was boarding. I felt so at ease and received prompt response when I texted with questions about Chandler. They have a great yard he could run and play in and was super tired when I picked him up!”
“Annmarie is a literal dog whisperer & GEM! Brings in my rambunctious boy, sometimes with very short notice, and calms him with her pure existence! Thank you, Annmarie! Oakley loves being with you and his friends, and we appreciate the love and patience you show him!”
“Arrow stayed with Miranda and Erica over his birthday and they went above and beyond to give him an amazing birthday!! they really are the sweetest and will treat your pet like their own”
About: I recently lost my puppy after 7 years, and I had experience watching and dog sitting in my neighborhood, taking my dog and other dogs on walks all the time, watching my friends and families dogs, and I want to have more time around dogs again with my dog khaleesi now being gone. I am not a dog trainer, but I’ve been around dogs my entire life. They have always been a key part in my life and I want to be able to continue making positive memories with all sorts of dogs for the rest of my life! I am currently a student at Oakland University for exercise science and pre Physical Therapy. I am also working part time for a sales company called cutco, but I have control of my schedule and can work virtual or in person. I have experience with a electric fence, and if not fenced walking with a leash is no problem for me, I’m very good with crating dogs if needed, but I will not crate them unless it is crate worthy, like if they got slight aggressive, but I do not like to crate if it’s not needed. I will take on walks at minimum once a day and will walk however long the dog seems to need to be walked to get out there zoomies energy. I can feed whenever they usually eat, and always have fresh water for them. I can bathe them as well, but I’m not a pro at it by any means. I also allow pets on couches or beds of any sort, but if they aren’t allowed to be then I can follow that rule with no problem.
“Archie loved his stay with Thea! I sent a request on a short notice but Thea was very nice and accepted to watch our dog. She sent us cute pictures and updated us on how Archie was doing. He had a blast I know it! Thank you Thea! I will be sure to book again once we need another sitter! I definitely recommend Thea! :) :)”
About: I’ve had a vast experience from helping foster cats to personal dog ownership and training. My calm, loving demeanor sets me apart from just a pet sitter. A flexible schedule is ideal, considering I am primary caregiver to my two children. Looking for a part time schedule during school hours. I value being responsible and reliable for you and your pet’s needs. I would love to establish our home as a safe boarding environment for your bestie. We have just under two acres- not fenced- of beautiful land for your best friend to run and play! Lots of space inside, with option of storing a crate, if needed. Our children will not be part of the boarding experience as they are not home on weekends. Our dog passed unexpectedly this year of cancer and it wrecked us. Although we cannot replace her, we would love to provide a happy place for your beloved pet to stay and be loved while you are away or need a break. 🩷
“Sydney stayed with Krysia for a weekend. As she is an older dog and I was anxious about her having to do too many stairs. During our meet and greet session, Krysia asked great questions about Sydney’s personality and habits. She addressed my concerns about her doing too many stairs and willingly showed us her full house so we were assured Sydney would not be doing too many steps throughout the weekend. She had a fenced in yard which is exactly what we were looking for. Daily updates throughout the time in her care with new experiences reassured us that things were going well. I would use Krysia again and recommend her to others.”
“Thank you Jungmin, my family had a truly comfortable trip with your support. You kept us updated with photos from time to time, so we were able to travel without any worries. And it seems like Seoul also enjoyed staying with your dog, Taco. Thank you again!”
About: I'm a retired USN Veteran dog Dad who would love to be a companion to your dog as well. I've shared my life with dogs I love for over 60 years, and all my best friends are dog people. I've raised and trained many sporting dogs from puppies to old age, and called all of them family. My best friend is a 7 year old female Chesapeake who lost her companion a year ago and would welcome some company. I can't imagine a life without a dog in my home, and I would look forward to sharing my home with yours as well. I'm retired, widowed, and have 24/7 availability to devote to your dog(s). My only other commitment is a Door Dash side hustle, which allows me to tailor that schedule around dog care. My girl Quinn is super sweet and friendly with any other dog she's met. I have a large fenced yard to play in, and live 3 blocks from a county park with trails through the woods, perfect for a long nature walk.
“Margaret was an exceptional caretaker of our dog Macie. She doted on Macie with long morning walks and lots of pets. Beautiful natural setting. Macie was safe and happy. Macie will be back and highly recommend.”
“We took a long 2 weeks vacation and Karen provided updates the entire time. She treated our dog like a princess. She took her for walks almost everyday. I would 100% recommend Karen”
“We were very pleased with Katie. She took great care of our dog. She gave us frequent updates about how he was doing and sent pictures. She was very flexible when we got back later than expected. She had a great response time when we contacted her to set up an appointment. We definitely will use her again if we need a dog sitter.”
“Cheri and her family were wonderful watching my dog Axel for us when we were gone on vacation for a week! She sent pictures every day and was lovely to communicate with! I will definitely have her watch him again! Highly recommend!”
About: I've had pets my entire life. It has been quite some time since I have owned a dog. I had the best dog of my life and since she passed away I don't think I can endure that loss again. However, I still crave interactions with man's best friend. I very recently lost my 19 year old kitty which has been difficult but I still have a 12yr old rescued cat with bad behaviors lol. I am experienced with providing oral medications and injections. I owned a diabetic cat that unfortunately died from cancer. I also have fish and cardene shrimp. I have cared for reptiles, birds, rats, mice, and other small furry friends. I am an RN but need to spend more time with critters to make my life more balanced and enjoyable. Sure, overtime as an RN pays better, but time spent with animals brings me joy. I have experience training both cats and dogs. I am a remote worker and therefore have a great deal of flexibility. Let me know your needs. I will do my best to accommodate your pet's needs. I keep my cat in the bedroom due to bad behaviors and extreme anxiety making it easy to care for another animal in our home if needed. I do not have a fenced yard but I live in a beautiful subdivision for long walks. I prefer to watch pets in their home to reduce anxiety but if your pet is very social and you prefer they stay in our home, our home is very pet friendly. Our whole family has cats and dogs and they always come to visit and get spoiled. Animals are allowed on furniture and run of our large home.
About: I’ve been a cat owner and animal lover for 15+ years, and I’ve also cared for friends’ cats and walked dogs. I love spending intentional, one-on-one time with pets so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m incredibly attentive, follow care instructions closely, and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾 I work remotely and have an extremely flexible schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my routine. Due to my flexible schedule, I also accept last minute requests. In my home, I have two cats who love dogs. I have a yard without a fence, so I’d take your dog out on leash. I also love walking and would love to have a dog to join me. I ensure all pets receive lots of love, attention, and one-on-one time. I follow their routines and care instructions closely.
“Alicia was so good to our Bailey girl! We got regular updates and pictures. Our girl was spoiled with tons of attention and care! We will definitely be booking with Alicia again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Orion Township
Lia and Jonathan came through like champs! I only gave them a 1 day notice and they were gracious enough to fit Rogue in for the weekend. The communication throughout the stay was once again fantastic, so many pictures and quick notes on how the days were going. Definitely our go to place for Rogue❤️
Kseniia (and Troy) are always so accommodating and great with my dog. He’s a little quirky, and they are always willing to try different things to make him feel comfortable and cared for. Communication is excellent—they keep me updated and are very attentive. The last time he stayed with them, they let me know he had been shaking his head and thought he might have a bit of an ear infection. Sure enough, he did. I was so grateful they noticed and told me right away. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he is with people who genuinely care and pay attention. I highly recommend Kseniia.
Alexis is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had for our dogs. She has watched our dogs a few times and each time is always awesome. Alexis and her husband treat our dogs like their own dogs and our dog’s love going to see them and don’t want to leave usually lol. We get daily pictures and updates which we always appreciate especially seeing how well she takes care of our dogs. We highly highly recommend Alexis!!

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 Orion 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 Orion Township 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 Orion 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Orion Township. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Orion 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.
