“I can’t recommend Marielle enough! It was such a relief knowing Bianca was in a loving, safe environment. Marielle kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. Bianca came back home happy and relaxed. I’ll definitely be asking for her help again!”
“Kristen hit it out of the park, again! Thank you for taking care for Coco and Piper. Was happy with your consistent updates and flexibility with drop off and pick up. Video and pictures was a pleasant gift. Thanks Kim & Bob.”
“Whitley was absolutely phenomenal, and I truly cannot recommend her highly enough! She cared for our senior cat, Panda Bear, for almost a month while we were relocating, and knowing he was in her care gave us complete peace of mind. Panda Bear is an older cat, so leaving him for an extended period was incredibly difficult. From day one, Whitley treated him as if he were her own. She was patient, attentive, and genuinely caring, making sure he was comfortable, well-loved, and happy throughout his stay. One of the things we appreciated most was her communication. She sent us regular updates, photos, and messages about how Panda Bear was doing, which meant the world to us during such a stressful time. It was so reassuring to see him relaxed, receiving affection, and settling in so well with her. When we picked him up, he was healthy, content, and clearly had been very well cared for. It was obvious that he had received plenty of love and attention while we were away. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, and goes above and beyond for your pet, Whitley is the person you want. We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care she gave Panda Bear, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Thank you, Whitley, for taking such amazing care of our sweet boy!”
“Audrey was a wonderful catsitter! She is a great communicator, which made coordinating my cat’s stay easy and stress-free. Audrey made sure that my cat was comfortable and safe throughout his stay. I look forward to booking another stay with her!”
“My experience was awesome. This was my first time using Rover and Sogol v made this the best experience ever. She was friendly, showed my pup and myself love. I felt so comfortable because she went above and beyond with her selfless personality. She sent pictures and communicated with me daily. I would recommend her to anyone looking to use this service. You can feel the love she has for animals and people. I can't thank her enough and will use her again.”
“Allesha is great with our dog Zoey! She’s super accommodating to our schedule and takes wonderful care of Zoey. Zoey gets treated like one of Allesha’s pack and comes home tired and happy ☺️”
“Dena was fantastic! Potter had the best time with her and her family. He played hard and was so well loved during his entire stay. Dena also did a great job with updates and photos which we appreciated so much, as it allowed us to get a glimpse into the amazing time potter was having. I couldn’t recommend her and her family enough! THANKS DENA!”
“I want to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such great care of Donatello! When we adopted him we had already had a family trip planned. We were nervous to find care for him but Anthony took it on with ease! We got so many pictures and videos we felt like we knew where he was at all times and we could see he was enjoying his puppy buddy. Would highly recommend Anthony!!!”
“Steven was great with Beast. On our first visit Beast took to him. I received updates with pics and video which helps me to feel sure about leaving him there. I was told Beast even found a friend in Duke (another cane Corso). I’m pleased with the professional and prompt response. Would book again with him.”
“Enaes did a fantastic job handling my very nervous pooch and was very flexible when I was stuck out of town due to the weather. She provided updates and I felt comfortable having Pheo in her care.”
“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 😊”
“Amanda was awesome! Our dog had a wonderful time! She sent updates and was available and responsive. He’s and energetic pup and he loved having a playmate and a fenced in yard to run around as well as daily walks. I would highly recommend her and we are planning on using her again in the future!”
“Amazing sitter, came through during a super stressful time for me moving 200 miles, and I wanted to spare my dog 2 days of moving trucks and boxes. Tracey was great, will book again.”
“I could not have asked for better sitters for our 10-month old puppy! Amy and her family went above and beyond to care for Jojo and ensure she had a great time while we were out of the country on a 10-day vacation. I can't thank them enough for giving us a worry-free vacation, with daily pictures and videos and hilarious updates. Not to mention Finley was the best boy and companion for Jojo! Amy cared about every detail prior to our departure to ensure Jojo was safe and well taken care of. We are so lucky to have found Amy and family (and Finley) and would recommend them in a heartbeat.”
“Samantha and Zachary are fantastic sitters! My dog Stella had a great time and made two new friends in Krypto and Bailey. Provided daily photos and videos of Stella during her stay and they were always quick to respond to all my messages. Would highly recommend!”
“SYDNEY IS THE BEST! This was the first time our dog, Primo, stayed with someone who wasn’t already familiar with him, so naturally, we were a little nervous about leaving him while we were away on vacation. From the very beginning, Sydney completely put our minds at ease. She took the time to address every concern we had, answered all of our questions, and reassured us that Primo would be safe, comfortable, and very well taken care of. Sydney was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and professional throughout Primo’s entire stay. What we appreciated most was her communication. Every morning and evening, she sent us pictures along with updates and notes about how Primo was doing. Being able to see him happy and comfortable allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. It was clear that Sydney treated Primo with genuine care and attention, and that means everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience leaving him with someone new. Sydney has definitely earned our trust, and we will absolutely be using her services again in the future. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, communicative, and trustworthy to care for your pet, we highly recommend Sydney. Thank you, Sydney!”
“Tiffany was fantastic with Odie! She took him on regular walks and kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. We felt completely at ease knowing he was so well cared for. Highly recommend Tiffany to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Shelby
Laura took wonderful care of our dog, Koda, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She is kind, loving, and truly cares about the animals she watches. Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Koda was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter, and we will definitely book with her again!
Kathryn did an amazing job watching my dog! She was a great communicator throughout the entire process and was very attentive to the needs of my pet. I will definitely be going with her for dog sitting in the future and would strongly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.
Kaitlin was so great with Ollie. She sent me plenty of great pictures during his stay and many of them looked as though Ollie had a huge smile on his face. When my business trip was extended she was not able to watch him during that extended time but helped me out a great deal by packing his items and bringing him to another place to stay. I will surely have her watch Ollie again when needed. Thank you again Kaitlin, you are awesome!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Shelby on Rover is $39.45 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,333 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Shelby. About 92% of Shelby sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
