“Our dog was very happy staying with Julie. He was very comfortable and well lived in their lovely home. We received lots of pictures and updates and I would not hesitate to recommend this family for looking after a loved pet.”
“Katie was great! She and her husband took amazing care of Titan for 5 nights and treated him like he was their own. Great communication and regular updates, lots of walks, plenty of love, and they were very flexible with my drop-off and pickup schedule. I felt completely comfortable knowing Titan was in great hands. Would absolutely recommend Katie and use her again!”
“Amanda is a gift for anyone who feels nervous to leave their pup(s). Her home and yard are so welcoming, she is invested and kind, and very professional. She communicates the perfect amount, sends plenty of pictures, and demonstrates genuine love and care. My two goldens loved their time with her, appreciated her yard a ton, and loved being treated as if they were her own (snuggles galore)! Will definitely be booking again.”
“Beth and Tracy were absolutely wonderful with Duke. Beth communicated often and took lots of pictures. They took wonderful care of our pup, which made us feel really good and allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation.”
“Elizabeth was so great with my dog for the weekend. He was so happy and relaxed when I picked him up. She also kept me updated with how he was doing and pictures of him. Cannot say enough good things. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Always amazing! Jenai and Sean treat my dogs like their own. They’re fantastic communicators, and my dogs are always tuckered out from all the playing! They were especially accommodating and kind to them over the 4th of July weekend. Both of my dogs are not fans of fireworks, but they went out of their way to make a special space for my old man to feel a little less scared in, and made sure my younger dog got some extra love. 100% recommended!!”
“Trina and her daughter were wonderful hosts for Rosie. They offered to do a meet and greet before the day, so she could get comfortable. And I could tell that she was happy and well taken care of when I came to pick her up!”
“Sadie had a great time at Nayoma’s house.she came home well rested and happy. We got lots of pictures of her playing with other dogs at her house. Definitely recommend Nayoma to take care of your dog.”
“Kathy was fantastic with Teddy. She suggested a meet & greet prior to officially booking to make sure it was a good match. For the week that Teddy stayed with Kathy she provided photos, videos and written updates which helped keep us at ease. It is clear that Kathy loves dogs and enjoys having them in her home!”
“Savannah did a great job with my dog Henry! She checked in regularly and assured me that he was doing well. I could tell Henry enjoyed his time playing with Savannah’s pups!”
“Becky was great and really communicative! My frenchie, Max, seemed super chill about his stay at her home and she sent me great photos so that I could be comfortable with his stay also! I will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Luke and his family went above and beyond caring for our Yogi. They have a large fenced in backyard and a host of other animal friends that Yogi fell in love with. Our Yogi has a tendency to pee on himself vs the ground and they bathed him before pickup. My toddler wouldn’t stop asking us to smell the dog on the way home. Thank you Luke and family! We will use you every time we need to head West to Wisconsin.”
“I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional care Robert provided to Max during two-week stay. I am a returned customer and know that my furry friend was in good hands. Your professionalism and commitment to providing top-notch care are greatly appreciated. Thank you once again for everything you did to make my dog's time away from home a positive experience”
“Reed and Natalie were great to work with. They were both very kind and worked with my dog that is a little kiddish around new people. They took the time to slowly get her to come out of her shell. They sent many text updates, photos and videos. This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely book with Reed and Natalie again!!”
About: I have 2 dogs and a cat. I have been a multiple pet household for 20 years. I help my friends and neighbors with their pets when they are away. I have fostered dogs before and I have volunteered at the spca. I know how hard it is to find good pet sitters and would love to help others with this. I work from home so am flexible and able to help out during the day. I currently work from home so have the flexibility to care for your pets during the day and evening. I'm also open to boarding at our home so long as they get along with our other pets. I have a fenced in yard, 2 friendly dogs and 1 cat. I can come to your home for walks and/or play time as well.
“We are so lucky to have found Heather! She gives daily updates of our pets and sends videos and pictures, which makes our time away a lot less difficult. She truly cares about our pets!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oshtemo
Katy was great with our little dog, Oliver. She was able to accommodate his picky eating habits and took wonderful care of him. She was very responsive to any communication and sent multiple pictures of our little guy so that we could see that he was thriving in her care.
Katie was great! She and her husband took amazing care of Titan for 5 nights and treated him like he was their own. Great communication and regular updates, lots of walks, plenty of love, and they were very flexible with my drop-off and pickup schedule. I felt completely comfortable knowing Titan was in great hands. Would absolutely recommend Katie and use her again!
Best Rover experience yet! Callie loved her time with Andrew and his family. Communication was excellent. We received regular updates and photos. We had a longer pre boarding visit because Callie enjoyed the spacious fenced in yard and getting to know the feline members of the family. When we dropped her off for the actual boarding, I was totally comfortable. Callie is looking forward to her next visit with Andrew.
Sarah is fantastic and took great care of our dog! Our pup had a great time running around with her new furry friends. Sarah sent plenty of pictures, and was always quick to respond to messages. Our dog was happy and healthy when we picked her up, and even seemed a bit sad to leave. We would love to have Sarah host our girl again!
Montana and her family took excellent care of Clover. They even went above and beyond giving her a bath and a good brushing. I loved the photos and updates she sent throughout my vacation. That gave me peace of mind and comfort seeing she was getting along so well. I appreciate the care and love they gave . I would definitely recommend Montana for pet care.

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 Oshtemo 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 Oshtemo.
<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 Oshtemo 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.
