“Catherine and family boarded our dog over the Fourth of July holiday. He had a great stay! We received regular communication with photos and felt that he was getting lots of attention.”
“Definitely, Mina is our go-to pet sitter; she and her family are friendly to our dogs. She keeps us updated all the time with videos and pictures of my pups playing with their kid and their dog.”
“Kayden did a great job taking care of our two large dogs during our 3 week trip. Communication was excellent, including regular updates with pictures. I was a little concerned about the very small yard, but the kiddos got frequent walks so I don't think it was a problem. We'll be happy to use Kayden's services again on our next trip.”
“Amazing, super sweet and I appreciated how she sent alot of pics and vids of my pup with updates of what they were doing!!🫶🏾 would definitely recommend and will be a returning customer”
“Katie and Travis were fantastic with our small, old, special-needs dog! Katie is communicative and was clearly attentive to our dog's needs. We will definitely use her again!”
“Amy took great care of Leila. She was communicative and sent regular updates during our trip. When we arrived, Leila was coming back from a walk and seemed very happy and comfortable with Amy! Thank you!”
“Tanu was fantastic with our dog Daisy! She sent updates every day and kept Daisy comfortable and happy throughout her stay. Tanu took Daisy on walks every day and let us know how she was doing with food and water and the weather. We were so impressed and happy that Tanu was able to put our minds at ease and care for our pup in the same way we would. Great experience, we would love to work with Tanu again!”
“Natiely is a loving and compassionate person. She was incredibly conscientious and caring with my senior dog, Toby. She closely monitored his adjustment and responded appropriately, often putting techniques she had learned into practice to help Toby feel more comfortable and build trust with her. Her attentiveness and patience allowed Toby to relax and feel at ease much more quickly than usual, which, in turn, gave me tremendous peace of mind. I truly appreciated the care and understanding she showed toward him.”
“Karen is the first dog sitter I left my puppy with and it went great! She sent updates, pictures, and my dog was so happy! Thank you, Karen for a great first experience! We will be in touch next time Violet visits Ann Arbor with me 💜”
“David was great with watching my dog, Pauly! Pauly would say so too if he could—haha. He was super responsive and flexible with my busy schedule. He sent lots of pics and updates, which I was very appreciative of. Would definitely recommend!”
“Millie is so well cared for, which puts our minds at ease while we travel! We received videos and photos of her playing and we get her back with a nice soft coat as she gets brushed. This was Millie’s 2nd stay and we will return again!!”
About: Dogs have always been an essential part of my life, and I'm lucky to have two sidekicks of my own - a senior dog and a tripod. They've taught me a lot about being patient, paying attention to what each dog needs, and making sure they are comfortable and cared for. I'm also confident giving medications and caring for senior dogs who need a little extra attention. My dogs are definitely my adventure buddies! We regularly run, hike, travel, and backpack together, so I'm happy to keep up with an active pup (including runs!) or spend a quiet afternoon hanging out and giving a lot of snuggles. I'm also a teacher with 20 years of experience, so I'm responsible, patient, organized, and very used to caring for other people's most important things. I am First Aid and CPR certified (for both humans and pups). I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, and I'll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you're away! I'm currently working remotely, so I will have plenty of time to care for all your pup's needs! I'm used to building my days around walks and feedings. I'm also active and spend a lot of time walking and running, so I enjoy keeping up with active pets, as well as those who prefer a slower pace. I'm happy to work a pet's normal routine into my day, whether that means a morning walk, midday potty break, medication, or simply cuddles and company. Whether I'm caring for a pet in my home or a client's home, I treat them like my own! I'm careful about doors, gates, and other safety concerns. I follow their normal feeding, walking, medication, and exercise schedules, and give plenty of love and attention. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs. I can also easily crate your dog if needed. I will also keep you updated with lots of photos so that you can relax and know that your fur babies are in good hands!
“This was our first time using a service like this. I felt so comfortable leaving our dog with Erin and her husband. I appreciated updates and photos showing how much fun he was having. You can tell they both are great dog owners and true dog lovers. I can tell our dog was loved and cared for while we were away. Thank you so much!”
“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.”

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Saline 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 Saline 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 Saline.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saline. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Saline 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
