“Wow, what can I say… Jill ( & Sunny :))was amazing with our 4 yr old yellow lab, Callie! She was so loving and all about making a great experience for Callie. Her home was perfect and such a nice setting back near a nice river with a large yard with a fenced in area as well. Our dog could use her doggy door (once she got the hang of it ;) )and go outside to the fenced in yard and play/potty/whatever ….as she needed. Jill was great about taking walks, letting her swim in the river at her property, having playtime and providing constant attention and love. And her dog Sunny is so loving and was a great playmate for Callie. :). Such a reassuring feeling to have her with Jill while we traveled. Knowing she was getting constant attention, love, care, exercise, and play. I will never use a kennel or doggy care center again as long as Jill is available, thanks Jill ! :-)”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She deserves an award for handling my crazy, high energy Labrador. Somehow she kept up with his endless energy & chaos. I got constant pictures and videos giving me a peace of mind while i was gone. Duck came home happy and tired. Can’t thank her enough for watching him!”
“We had to find a sitter on fairly short notice for a 2 week vacation. I was really nervous about using this app and leaving my puppy with someone i didnt know. Katlynn was so easy to work with and accomodating. She sent me photos every day and and he came home happy and healthy. I will definately book with Katlynn again, if she'll have him :)”
“Amy is an excellent "dog sitter" & is always very attentive to our Filson, who is a Wire Fox Terrier & expects a lot of "attention" :) He loves going to their home! We highly recommend Amy & her environment....which is peaceful & calming.”
“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!”
“Rosie had a wonderful time visiting and playing with her new found friends! Thank you Savannah for taking such great care of our puppy Rosie! Highly recommend and personable!”
“Christine was a great sitter for Alfie. He had such a fun time running the yard and having a buddy to hang out with. Christine gave good updates and pictures. Would definitely recommend!”
“My dogs had a blast at "sleep-away camp" with Nayoma. They were well cared for, had plenty of fun time (with daily photos to prove it,) and were cared for according to our instructions. We will definately use her again.”
About: For the past ten years I’ve worked in the area as a veterinary assistant and also have experience in dog daycare and grooming. I enjoy developing relationships with pets and their humans! Being a home away from home is an huge honor to me. I am currently available during weekdays for daycare. I have a great space at my home and neighborhood to keep your dog company for the day. I am now doing pet sitting from my home and able to stay at your home. Whatever your pet is most comfortable with! I have a fenced in yard and my own dog that would love to play. I also have a great neighborhood to explore with your pet. The latest pick up time is 6:30pm but can accommodate if something comes up.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for several years for several families and love it so much! I have two dogs and two cats of my own that I love so much! I have experience with all different types of dogs and even have to give an insulin shots everyday to one of the dogs I watch. Your furry friend will be in amazing care I have a very open schedule and available almost all the time. I’m a college student all online this semester so I’m home all the time to take care of your pets! I live in a house with a yard(not fenced) and live a mile away from a park and hiking trails if your pup would like that! I live in a nice neighborhood good for walks! And have two pups who are friendly with dogs and cats as well as two cats who are friendly!
“First time using this service and Jordan made me feel very comfortable about my dogs care he kept me updated and took great care of my dogs if I ever use this again I definitely would want him to watch my dogs again he was amazing”
“My pups loved their weeklong stay with Janelle (and Kevin!)! Janelle went above and beyond with my somewhat “special needs” and raw fed dogs (a puppy and a CHF dog with a strict medication administration routine). Despite a week of nasty humid and stormy weather, Janelle managed to get them outside to play when it cleared up, but they were also content snuggling or napping. I was sent daily reports and pictures. My dogs usually take a bit to warm up to strangers, but this was not the case with Janelle- they were immediately comfortable and returned home happy and well fed. This is the second time with her and I won’t trust anyone else to care for them moving forward!”
“Chex and Penny cam home happy, well fed and full of energy! John is excellent! He was responsive, flexible and great to my dogs and they loved being there and playing with John's dog too! Highly recommend.”
“My pup had some issues while boarding but Chelsea was great taking care of him while we were away and handled the situation professionally and lovingly. Thanks Chelsea!”
About: I've worked as a vet assistant, at a pet store, as a groomer, as a vet concierge, volunteered and at a animal shelter. I have also been dog training, walking, daycare, boarding and pet/dog sitting and grooming for years. I've also fostered many dogs, animals are such a passion of mine! I do work like this very often so I am able to be with your sweeties as much as possible! Feel free to reach out to me! I always monitor and take as best care of them possible. Excercise when they need, rest when they need, potty, food etc. If your pets have a schedule I'll stick to it. If not well then tell me what you'd like and call it done!
“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”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and have personally owned three dogs ranging from Shih Tzus and Corgis to Golden Retrievers and Huskies\. I have experience caring for both puppies and seniors, including dogs with arthritis and other special needs\. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, vitamins, and other treatments, and I’m attentive to each dog’s individual routine, comfort, and needs\. I truly love dogs and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and long walks\. I’m patient, dependable, and observant, and I take the time to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I am retired so I have a lot of time to watch your dogs! They will have my undivided attention. I also have a fenced yard so along with walks they will get to roam around in the big backyard. I love playing fetch with them and will try to teach them new tricks if you allowed! I have a big fenced in yard so they will have access to outdoors anytime they needed it. I always have fresh water available for them and I have a 2 year old Shih Tzu they can play with!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Otsego is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $54 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 496 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Otsego. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Otsego 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 Otsego home-away-from-home, 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 Otsego.
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 Otsego 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 , 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 .
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.
