“Kristopher R. & Family are incredible hosts. Regular updates helped us a lot. Our dog suffered a lot of trauma before his rescue. Usually when he comes home from boarding, he is pretty withdrawn and dirty. Today we picked him up and was himself immediately. Thank you for providing a great experience for not only our dog, but also us!”
“Emily and family are the best! Dogs always enjoy their stay whether just a day or an extended stay. Emily communicates well - we enjoy receiving updates & photos throughout their visit. Highly recommend!”
“Ashleigh and Lulu were a great first experience for us! The communication was good. Ashleigh was really patient as Willie warmed up to the situation which was great for us on our first time leaving him with someone. We will definitely rebook with her! She's awesome and easy to work with!”
“Raluca is he answer to my prayers. I have used her services several times for periods ranging from 4-9 days and every time my dog is happy to see me but sad to leave. She communicates and provides updates: photos thru the day. Great and consistent experience overall. I’ll continue to bring my dog to her in the future.”
“We loved leaving Ollie with Caroline! We got to meet her before our trip, and Ollie got to check out where he was going to be staying. She was fantastic with communication and sent us pictures of Ollie while we were away. She was so kind, and you could tell she loves dogs and has a lot of experience caring for them. We felt comfortable leaving Ollie in her care - knowing he would be safe and well taken care of. We will definitely contact Caroline again when we need a dog-sitter. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We left our pug with Sherri and her family and were so happy we did! Sherri took exceptional care of our pet and we could tell that she was in such good hands. I highly recommend Sherri. She was exceedingly conscientious and caring and Junebug came back to us happy and healthy!!”
“Amy and Mia are great. Both were wonderful hosts for our dog Ellie. She loved her time with them. Amy was very accommodating to Meet & Greet with us on short notice and made us feel at ease. Amy is very personable and we enjoyed talking with her. Ellie felt like she was HOME away from home and got to hang with another furry friend. What fun!! Ellie was walked and well taken care of during her stay. We received updates and photos. We were blessed to have found such a caring sitter for Ellie. Thank you.”
“Felix did an amazing job with our big rescue dog who is so sweet, but needs reassurance that everything will be ok. We are also grateful that there were other dogs to socialize with, big and small. Felix has a beautiful, large fenced in backyard for the dogs to run around and get a lot of exercise. This was our first experience with Rover and having our dog stay with anyone other than our family. We will absolutely hire Felix again.”
“Once we saw Wendy's place and met her and the family we knew Loki would be with caring hands for his week away from home. Thank you Wendy for your perseverance with Loki's ear treatment!”
“Dan and his wife were absolutely incredible! This was our first experience with Rover, and certainly will not be our last! Dan’s communication was excellent! He sent daily updates, photos, and videos during our time away. I truly felt our pup was so loved and cared for! Hands down would recommend Dan to anyone and everyone! Thank you!!!”
“We had such a great experience with Matt! He watched both of our pups for over a week and did an amazing job. He sent regular updates with pictures, took them on multiple walks, and made sure they were happy and well cared for the entire time. We’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
“Blue had a great time with Dale and his dogs. His communication with us was great from the start, sending updates everyday of his stay. Made us feel comfortable from the first meet and greet. Will be booking with him again!”
“Christina was great with our dog Asher! She was great at communicating and sent pictures of him to us while we were on vacation and showed us how he was loving spending time with their dog. They even sent us home with a new dog toy for Asher and he loves it. Thanks for helping us out! We will definitely request to book with them again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Saranac 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 Saranac.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Saranac 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.
