“Rachel and her husband are great with Marley. He actually likes going over there. Not sure why but he extremely likes Rachel. And Rachel does an excellent job. Takes care of Marley very well, even sends me pictures of him having fun. I’m so glad Rachel’s linked up with the Rover company.”
“Dawn has been our go-to dogsitter for a couple years now and she is so great! I love that Rose has a familiar place to stay when we are out of town and she always comes back happy.”
“Steven is great with Prince. Always welcoming and hospitable even when last minute care is needed. Definitely recommend as we’ll continue utilizing his service for our boarding needs.”
“This was our first Rover experience! Tracey was amazing. We felt so comfortable leaving our 4 year old Labrador Ruby. Tracey sent pictures and kept us updated. Ruby had a nice yard to run and play in and was so happy when she got home! We will definitely use Tracey again!”
“Sydney kept my two girls for a long stay, I received plenty of updates with pictures! They both came home happy and not stressed. I plan on using her for future stays!”
“I trust very few people to take care of Lacey, however I have full confidence that Katie always takes exceptional care of my baby. I’m so grateful for Katie!”
“10000/10! First time rover user and first time leaving my dog with a "stranger" overnight so I was super nervous doing so. I had a 10 day trip planned and my family who would normally help out could no longer watch my dog. Monica responded quickly to my initial request and even made time for a quick meet and greet a week before to help ease my nerves. She has a nice, clean house with a beautiful big fenced in yard, which was perfect for my dog. You can tell she truly cares about the wellbeing of your pet and making sure that YOU are as comfortable as possible. I received pictures and messages that helped to reassure me that my dog was doing well and was loved! She and her husband treated him like their own, which made this entire process so much easier for me. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Monica through Rover. I would (and will) absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter for your pet!”
“Samantha and Zach were super professional and responsive when our puppy was boarded with them. They made sure to send us lots of pictures and videos as updates! Will be bringing him back as he had the best time!”
“I have been so happy and blessed to find Latara on Rover. My Cesar simply loves his time boarding with her, and I'm able to go on my trips knowing that he's in the best hands possible!!!”
“Nia and Phillip came in clutch! I’m a travel healthcare worker from Arizona and my place wasn’t ready and I had to go to work. Nia and Phillip were able with a 24 hour notice able to care for my fur baby PJ so I would be able to go to work. They took great care of him. I highly recommend them.”
“Both of our dogs had an amazing time at Kellie’s while we were out of town! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures during their stay and in every one we could see them having a great time with her dog and kids! We will definitely plan to use her again for any future trips 😊”
“Mou and Yanling were amazing with my dog dobby. I received daily videos of them playing and cuddling together. Watching them say goodbye to him when I picked him up was the sweetest thing. You could tell they really loved him. 10/10 would book again!”
“Excellent care for our golden retriever! Amanda always provided feedback for how our dog was doing, lots of pictures... can't recommend enough! Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Jessica was amazing with our pups! We've never used Rover before but decided to for a 9 day trip. We are worriers with our babies so we were nervous, but I am so happy we did because they had tons of play time/attention, and it was SO much more affordable than a boarding facility. We received daily pictures, updates, and some videos along the way. We will definitely be working with Jessica again!”
“Dawn took fantastic care of my baby! She came home beautifully tired out from playing with Dawn's own fur babies. Dawn provided informative daily updates that kept my mind completely at ease. I highly recommend her!”
“Thank you Angela! She took wonderful care of our dog, Budd. Helped manage his anxiety during thunderstorms, kept us up to date on how he was adjusting, and send sweet photos!”
“Britnie took great care of my dog and kept me updated daily with details and photos. My dog is very comfortable with her and she clearly does a great job with him. I recommend her services to anyone with a small dog.”
“Charlotte is the absolute BEST!! My son was very nervous about leaving his new fur baby for the first time and Charlotte went above and beyond to reassure him that Wes was in the best, most loving hands! She invited us over before our trip so we could see where Wes would be staying and made us all feel welcome in her beautiful home. She sent us pictures throughout the day and kept us up to date on his adventures! She truly loved him like her own! Charlotte even did research on his particular breed to understand how to best care for him. We are so grateful we were able to enjoy our trip without a worry knowing that Wes was enjoying his "vacation" too! We very HIGHLY recommend Charlotte!”
“This was our first time boarding our two dachshunds. I was nervous at first but Nancy allowed us to meet her & her dog Betty before booking. Her dog Betty is a gentle giant and was nice to my dogs. Nancy did a great job at providing updates and sending us pictures. We will definitely be booking with Nancy in the future. Thank you!”

Rachael treated Monty like a member of her family! He got all the play time and snuggles he could ever want. We had full trust in Rachael to watch Monty for 12 days while we were in Europe. She was very communicative and provided lots of pictures. Will definitely leave Monty with her in the future!

Kellie was great! My girls had a great time with her family and her pup. She was super easy to reach and sent us lots of photos to keep us updated. We felt very comfortable and confident that they were well cared for during our trip. We would definitely go to Kellie again!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Craig! This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous leaving my dogs with someone new, but was instantly put at ease. Craig kept me updated multiple times a day, which I appreciated. He went above and beyond with them-taking them for multiple walks a day that even included going to parks and the beach, giving them so much love and attention. He genuinely cared about them and wanted them to have a fun, happy stay. I came home to two very happy (and tired) dogs, and I’m honestly sad their stay is over because I know how much fun they had. I would absolutely recommend him and will definitely use him again.
Katie was great!! My dog had a blast staying with her and was well cared for. She gave regular updates and communicated throughout his stay. My dog has some special health needs and quirks about him as well, but she was awesome helping him. Would 100% book again with her! :)
Sarah and her family were awesome with our dog Wrigley. It's been years since we left him with anyone. We brought him to her house and immediately he was running around and didn't seem to care that we left him. We felt really comfortable when we left him and never worried about him. We received lots of updates, photos and videos. Wrigley always looked happy. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. I'm sure he got a lot more attention at their house. I will definitely use Sarah again; she is now our go to person for Wrigley.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Saint Clair Shores on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
95% of Saint Clair Shores 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 Saint Clair Shores 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 Saint Clair Shores 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 Saint Clair Shores.
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 Saint Clair Shores 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.
