“Alan was very positive.He sent pictures and comments, and he also was patient with our change in plans. We hope that he'll be able to watch Hershey again sometime because it was a great experience for our dog.”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“What can I say about Kristie? She was incredible with my pup. He’s a bit of a finicky boy, and this was his first experience not at a kennel while dad was away. After asking great questions to get an understanding m, we did a meet and greet and Reggie seemed to enjoy, so we went ahead with the booking. Throughout my 7 day trip, I got plenty of updates and pics (peep the gallery). Kristie took the time to get to know the pup, checked in with me to get insights, and tailored her interactions and expectations to match my goober’s needs. 10/10 recommend, and hope to rebook whenever I need a sitter!”
“Lillian and Jeremy are excellent sitters to my dog Smokey! They are always my number one choice everytime I leave town. My dog Smokey loves them and their two lovely dogs that are his friends now! They are excellent communicators and are very prompt with responding, and they also send me picture updates of my pet. I will continue to rebook with them!”
“We were so pleased with Jen and her husbands care and affection for our dogs! They loved on our 2 mastiffs for 5 days while we were out of town. She kept in touch with pictures and updates and gave my husband peace of mind knowing the dogs were never alone. We would most definitely book again with them. We appreciate you both so much! The drive to you was so worth it?”
“Rachel took amazing care of our 2 doggies, Eddie & Isabelle! She kept us updated and sent pictures every day which really put me at ease (we've only ever left them with family). She was very responsive and pleasant! Overall experience was excellent! I would definitely recommend her :)”
“Maria and Augustine are wonderful! They are incredibly friendly, highly responsible, and took amazing care of my dog. I had complete peace of mind knowing my pup was in such safe and caring hands. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!"”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a little kid. Our family always had a dog and my specialty is belly rubs and long walks I work from home and can spend as much time as possible playing with them. I give unlimited belly rubs and kisses to make them comfortable I have plenty of space to make your dog comfortable and happy with love and lots of rubs and kisses. The dogs have access to lay on the bed and furniture
“Birdie was amazing with our little Maggie. She has dog toys galore. It was like I dropped her off for a doggie vacation of fun. She was very attentive and constantly sent us updates and pictures. She made us feel very comfortable leaving her. She is wonderful!”
“So glad we found Katie to take care of our puppy. Nothing like having a peace of mind knowing he would be in great care! We would definitely have her take care of him again. We recommend her! Thank you Katie!”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about how awesome Debra is. I had the best experience booking with Debra. She is friendly and made the whole process easy going. The entire week we were gone she sent photos and communicated well . Debra treated my poms like one of her own. She made me and my pets feel extremely comfortable and took superb care of my pets. I will definitely book again with Debra. 11/10”
“June was AMAZINGGGGG!! Absolute best sitter I’ve ever had for River!! She kept great communication the entire time I was away, with plenty of pictures and stories. We will definitely be going to June again in the future!! THANK YOU!!!”
“Jaimee was an excellent dog sitter. It was really reassuring to have someone with so much experience watching our senior dog. He was really happy staying with her and got along well with her dog. She sent photos every day and was very responsive. We would definitely ask her to watch our dog again.”
“Heather and her family were great hosts for my dog! He came home happy. It was his first time staying somewhere new and Heather helped us make sure it would be a good fit with a meet and greet before his stay.”
“Nicole was amazing! She took care of Bella so well! She kept sending me updates when I asked and sent pictures and videos! I felt like Bella was safe and in good hands. Will definitely be having Bella and Kala stay with her when I need any boarding!”
“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 487 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Samaria. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Samaria 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 Samaria 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 Samaria.
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 Samaria. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 Samaria 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.
