“Jessica and her family were amazing! During our time away, Jessica sent regular updates, complete with adorable photos, which brought us such peace of mind. It was clear that Belle was having a blast and being well taken care of. The level of communication and transparency was just outstanding. I highly recommend Jessica and her family to anyone in need of a dependable, loving, and professional dog sitter. Your pup will be in the best possible hands, and you can relax knowing they are being treated like royalty.”
“We Love Bailey but the most important part is our dog loves her more. She gets so excited when we pull into Baileys and she sometimes even seems like she doesn’t know if she wants to leave. Bailey is super great and has been very flexible weather it be family emergency and we need someone to eat he her or a preplanned trip she is there.”
“Chip had plenty of room to run. Settled in and got so much attention from the kids. Was one happy pup and could tell he felt right at home. Appreciated all the photos sent to keep up while we were away.”
About: As a senior pet sitter with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs, I offer patience, kindness, and dependable care. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves love, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I care for each pet as if they were my own, giving you peace of mind while you're away. As a retired pet sitter, I have plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care throughout the day. I welcome boarding any day of the week and can easily follow your pet's usual routine. My typical schedule includes morning walks between 7:00–9:00 a.m., playtime and companionship during the day, afternoon potty breaks, an evening walk around 5:00–7:00 p.m., dinner, and lots of affection to help your pet feel relaxed and at home. Your dog will be welcomed into a safe, loving home where they will receive plenty of attention and companionship. I have a small, fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, along with regular walks and play throughout the day. My two grandchildren visit from time to time, and they occasionally bring their friendly Shih Tzu. If your dog enjoys being around children and other small dogs, they'll have opportunities to socialize in a relaxed environment. I always provide a calm, clean, and caring home and will follow your pet's feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions to help them feel happy and comfortable.
“This is the third time my dog has stayed with Alissa, and it’s always a fantastic experience. Alissa is incredibly attentive and loving, making me feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Alissa takes excellent care of my dog, who always comes back happy and well looked after. She regularly sends photos and updates, keeping me informed. Alissa is also very accommodating with schedules, which is a great help. I highly recommend Alissa’s Dog Day Care for anyone looking for a safe and loving place for their pet!”

I’ve had dogs my whole life and am now a proud mom to two boys, Hank and Gus. 🐾❤️ I’m looking to add even more love, cuddles, and fun to our family! I’m a full-time nurse I work most days during the week. Looking to do this when I’m available. Let me know if you have any more questions. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. My younger dog Hank is still a Puppy with lots of energy to share. We spend lots of time outside playing.

“Kate has watched Rue a few times now and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She really loves Rue and will make sure she is comfortable for her entire stay. Prior to Katie, Rue would stay at kennels and come home disheveled and typically with kennel cough or some other ailment. When she comes home from staying with Katie, she is in perfect condition, happy, and calm. Katie has been a huge help and such a positive in Rue’s life!”
About: I have over 13 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. I was a devoted owner of my Chihuahua for 13 years, which gave me extensive experience with long-term, attentive care and the needs of an aging dog. I also have experience with neonatal puppies. I helped care for a litter of 8 puppies from birth through adoption, assisting with feeding, handling, cleaning, monitoring their development, and providing consistent care until they went to their forever homes. I continue to help care for young puppies belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with puppy routines, supervision, and the extra patience they require. Additionally, I gained professional experience working at a doggy daycare during college, where I helped care for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable following each pet’s individual routine. My goal is to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention I would want for my own dog. My Availability 🐾 I’m unavailable Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8 AM–4 PM, but I’m available after 4 PM on those days. I’m fully available Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with flexible availability throughout the day. Have a specific schedule in mind? Send me a booking request or message me with your dates and your pet’s routine, and I’ll be happy to see how I can help! 🐾 Every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I like to learn what works best for them before each booking. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, medication if needed and within my comfort level, and plenty of attention and companionship. For drop-in visits and walks, I can follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. For overnight care, I do not stay overnight in clients’ homes. I’m happy to discuss extended drop-in visits or multiple visits throughout the day and evening instead. For boarding or overnight stays in my home, arrangements need to be discussed and approved in advance since I live with my family. I’ll make sure the setup is a good fit for both your pet and my household before confirming the booking. My goal is to make the experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
“It was our first time boarding our dog and we were quite anxious, but Lisa did an outstanding job with our boy Archie. Archie has a lot of energy and loves to be outside, and Lisa met his needs. He did a lot of running and playing with other dogs. It was a perfect spot for him to be happy and comfortable. Lisa sent many pictures and a video during the 3 days Archie was there, and that really put our minds at ease. We would absolutely use Lisa again. Thank you so much Lisa!”
“Mikayla is the best! Sent so many pics of my dogs and loved on them just as much as I do. Kept me updated the whole time and made it super convenient to pick up and drop off. Will definitely be a repeat customer and recommend her to everyone!”
“Katrina is THE BEST! My Coco was taken care of so well! I received videos and pics everyday from her while I was on vacation and that made me very happy and comforted. Katrina deserves five stars! Thank you for all of your hard work. Definitely will recommend Katrina to anyone who wants their fur baby pampered and loved.”
“Great experience and great people. Very good with questions to ensure Zeus would be a good fit up front. They were very good with bringing Zeus in. Patient in making sure he was comfortable and relaxed in their home. Highly recommend.”
About: I grew up with cats and have raised two pups since they were around 10 weeks old. I’ve taken them to multiple levels of training classes and groom them at home. I treat my animals like they’re my children and would be happy to spread my love along to your furry friends! I work from home during the week, so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to fit in pet care easily! I enjoy keeping busy, especially if it includes being around furry friends! I ensure pets receive adequate amount of food, playtime, attention and love each day. One of my pets was diagnosed with anxiety as a puppy, which has been a huge learning experience during walks and interactions with other dogs and people. I am a very patient person and would be happy to take care of pets regardless of their needs, personalities and behaviors. :)

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 Smiths Creek home-away-from-home, 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 Smiths Creek.
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 Smiths Creek 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 , 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 .
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.
