“First time using Rover. Mina sent regular photos to let us know how our dog was doing while we were away which was super helpful. Thanks so much for taking good care of her!”
“Snickers hadn’t stayed at a “stranger’s” house in years but she adapted well at Paula’s. Snickers thinks that she is too old to play but apparently she LOVED Paula’s big back yard. Snickers was in good spirits when I picked her up and I would definitely use her again.”
“I appreciated Dawn’s flexibility and compassionate care for my little Chico. She kept me informed of his activities and also updated me with pictures. Definitely will be rebooking with her if I need a sitter.”
“We love Irma & Daniel! This was our second time using their boarding services for our dog, Sakari, and it is obvious she had a fabulous time and loves them too! We received frequent updates and pictures that let us know Sakari was getting tons of attention, playtime, walks, and love! She can be very weary of newer people, but she warmed right up to them. We will definitely be using their service again in the future!”
“Our two pups had a great stay at George’s — there’s plenty of space to run around off leash. George was very communicative throughout their stay with photo and text updates, we’ll definitely be rebooking with him!”
“Debbie watched our 14 year old golden retriever Maggie for 11 days. She was great with updated photos of Maggie. Maggie was well cared for and we were very happy with Debbie.”
“Ashley was wonderful while watching my very energetic mini poodle!! She sent great updates and photos while I was out of town. My boy clearly felt right at home and I’ll definitely plan on working with Ashley again!”
“Kerri Took amazing care of my dog, with daily updates and pictures- She is one of the best Rover sitters I’ve had, and I can’t wait to board my dog with her On my next trip (and judging by how happy my dog was, I bet she can’t wait either!)”
“Elizabeth was great communicating and letting us know the status of our dog Chico. We were very please with her care and services. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“I am so happy to have chosen to leave my little Jazz with Tonya! Her little boys and her fur babies were a delight and were very receptive of him! When I picked him up, Tonya had him looking so good and fluffy…I could tell she had taken time to brush him🙂 She was really patient with him and I most definitely would like to book with Tonya again in the future!”
“Alisa was a wonderful sitter. She seemed to be very "in-tune" with dogs. There are only a few dogs at a time, and each one can stay in its own room if that's the mood. She is comfortable with different dog personalities and can handle barking, clinging, and so forth. Her back yard is a nice size, and the fact that she works from home is ideal. We look forward to having her take care of our dog again.”
“Oscar provided clear communication and lots of photos of our pet while she stayed at his place. The fenced in backyard was perfect for our dog to explore and then take a snooze, with plenty of both sun and shade opportunities. We would be happy to book again with Oscar!”
“I've had my Roxie stay with Dawn a few times now. She loves to run around the yard and play with the other dogs (if any are there). For this visit, Roxie had all Dawn's attention for almost two weeks, which was so nice. I would never think of boarding her at a regular kennel after seeing how much she loves going to Dawn's place!”
“Dena and her family took amazing care of our Lilli! Communication, flexibility and just being amazing people were 5-star!!!!! We had a very nervous out of town fur baby mama in our midst and Dena’s caring attitude even won her over!! Thank you for taking such great care of our Lilli! We will certainly be back when we bring Lilli back to Michigan to hang out with our beautiful grands!”
“We have a very needy senior dog and Heather did a great job with him. He can be high maintenance but she was very kind and patient and sent updates and pictures and said he was welcome back. We were very happy to have found her.”
“I can’t thank you enough for helping me last minute watching Chelsea last week. The energy of your person and your home space is so grounding and calming was the immediate presence that I was relieved with upon meeting you. I needed my baby somewhere safe and peaceful and you provided that thank you beautiful human would love to work with you again! Tipped you in cash.”
“Could not be happier with our experience with Emily and Jason!!! Completely professional, warm and friendly with the whole experience. We started with a casual meet and greet to ensure her baby Larry and my babies would get along ok. Then during their stay she sent us tons of updates and photos every day. My dogs came home so happy. Truly the best experience we have ever had on Rover. She even sent them home with little treats and a hand written card. Will absolutely be a repeat customer, couldn’t recommend them more!”
“Halo loved her day at “Camp” Whitley’s. She couldn’t stop talking about how much fun and attention she got throughout the day. Whitley was an excellent communicator and put our mind at ease. We will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her!”
“Rodney was a great sitter. He gave Toby a lot of exercise and attention. His two cats are very used to dogs; they all got along. I would not hesitate to have him take care of Toby again.”

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