Ellie was amazing! We had a last minute trip come up as well as cancelled flights and she was so kind through all the changes. She made sure we felt comfortable with Ember’s first stay there. Even though Ember was there for only one night, she came home tired and happy which showed how much Ellie played with her and gave her attention. 100% recommend Ellie for any dog sitting needs!

This is my second time bringing my dog to Natasha. My dog was so excited to see her and ran up to her door and never looked back to say goodbye to me 😂. He gets a lot of interaction and play time with her dogs. I would 100% recommend Natasha to take care of your pet. I have zero worries while away

So glad Julie kept our dog for the week. The home environment was so much better than a kennel. We also appreciated the photos and communication throughout the week. We will schedule with her again.

Tasha is great. She has a great property, my dog always seems happy with her, especially on my longer trips. Tasha always sends me video and picture updates throughout the stay, which is very reassuring. Her and her family seem to really love pets. I can tell my little one feels safe and comfortable when she stays in their home.

Jenai and Sean always take excellent care of our dog. This is the second time we have had them care for our Gully and this time for 2 nights. They send photos and give updates during the stay. Thank you so much for watching Gully again! It feels so good to be able to get to have a fun weekend once in awhile and know he is being well cared for and having a fun weekend too. 🙏🏼🥰🐶

Luke was extremely kind and has a nice fenced in backyard that Henry was able to play in all day. He was also very communicative and went the extra mile to make sure Henry had fun. I would highly recommend!

I wasn't sure how Pivo would handle being with other dogs, but was having a hard time finding a sitter who didn't have dogs who would be available for the dates I needed. I approached Trina even though she has her own dogs. She encouraged us to do a meet-and-greet in her home, and the dogs got along great right from the get-go! Trina and her family clearly love dogs, and made Pivo a member of the household. Trina learned the hard way what a bed hog Pivo is LOL! He came home totally relaxed and happy. Trina's a keeper, very easygoing, accommodating, and kind! Thank you, Trina!

Sydney was amazing! You can tell as soon as you walk through her door that her heart belongs to animals. I was so nervous leaving my old man with a stranger for the first time. But I got updates daily. He got to go on walks and get lots of love and attention. I picked him up and he was brushed and smiling. I am so happy with Sydney's service.

About: I’ve owned dogs since before I can even remember and they all still have a special place in my heart. I have tons of experience with pet sitting, dog walking, belly rubs and ear scratches. My skin care routine wouldn’t be complete without dog kisses. I’ve wrestled huge dogs since I was 6, so no dog scares me. And if I get bit, it is what it is cause I still love that doggo. I’ll treat your pets like I would my own - which means they’re family. They deserve the world! I am currently available every day, all day. I’d love to turn this into a career so this will be my number 1 priority. I live at an apartment complex that is extremely pet friendly and has GREAT areas for walking and two fenced in areas where dogs can run. I also have a sliding glass door that goes out to a patio and yard area because I live on the ground floor. I can crate your puppets if needed or they can be free to roam around.

Fantastic pet sitter! I have a very stubborn and specific elderly dog and after talking with her once, I felt completely confident that he would be well taken care of. I received multiple updates throughout my dog’s stay, and she was even gracious enough to allow me to pick him up after midnight. Everything went smoothly and I can tell from my dog’s stay, as well as the sweet attitude of the other animals in her home, that this is a very loving place for pets! Thank you very much!

Ruby just loves her time with Eva. Eva is patient and knows how to provide the best care for her. Ruby gets to have outside time with other animals and gets to snuggle. I will definitely be booking with Eva again.

Amazing! Third time Max stays with Loretta! Once again, looking at photos I feel like Max thinks that Loretta’s place is his place. To the point, I guess he becomes conflicted in between coming back home or staying there longer. 😂😂😂

Staci was absolutely amazing and very accommodating of my little dog. She made sure to send me updates and pictures throughout the stay. Her doggos are very friendly and welcoming. My dog Fiona had the most wonderful stay with Staci, and came back as a happy and tired doggie. If Stacie would be willing to, we would definitely book with her again. I was relaxed and trusted Fiona whole heartedly with Staci. Highly recommend her for a stress free stay!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Plainwell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Plainwell on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 476 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Plainwell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

93% of Plainwell sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Plainwell landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Plainwell 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 Plainwell.

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 Plainwell 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.
