“I couldn't be happier with the care Alia & Ian provided for my boys, Frankie & Marco! They were incredibly reliable, and sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. It's clear they're experienced and truly love dogs. My boys were happy and well-cared for. I highly recommend their services and will definitely be booking them again!”
“Michele is a very warm and caring person. She took our dog on several walks and was very attentive during his stay including him as part of the family. She also provided daily updates. I will be using her soon because our dog was well cared for and she is a pleasure to work with.”
“I can’t speak highly enough of Jennifer’s in-home care of our Bernese Mountain Dog during our week’s vacation. Her loving attention to dog sitting coupled with great communication was so appreciated. Jennifer’s wonderful!”
“Anthony took great care of our husky while we were on vacation this summer. He sent pictures daily, and it was clear Zakari felt right at home. Will definitely hire him again in the future!”
“Kelly and Brandon (and Arvon) were great and so kind. Sent many photos and updates while Daisy had a sleepover. Daisy had the time of her life and didn’t seem too interested in coming home with me when I picked her up. Will definitely be visiting again.”
“Catherine is amazing! She let us drop him off really early and pick him up really late in order to make flights. She sent pictures daily and even took a first thanksgiving photo for him. We forgot some of his stuff at home but she had everything we would have needed. Would 10/10 book again!!”
“We are so grateful for Jenna watching Maya and Hubert! She took excellent care of them both and treated them with such love. Our one dog enjoyed his stay so much, I don't think he wanted to leave when we picked them up :). Jenna sent pictures and brief updates during their stay, which was so appreciated. Would highly recommend Jenna and we would definitely use her again!”
“Beth was so good with my 11-year-old dorkie! She responded quickly to my booking request and when I took Zoey over for a pre-meetup, I could tell Zoey already liked Beth. She’s normally a pretty low energy dog, but with Beth, she looked happy and got a little spring in her step! Beth sent me videos and pictures while I was gone and I could tell Zoey was in good hands. With how happy she was, I didn’t think she was going to want to come home with me! Thank you Beth for taking such good care of my baby! I will highly recommend you to everyone looking to board their fur baby!”
“Lynn was absolutely amazing! She was organized and attentive to Luna’s needs. I could tell she was in good hands. Great amount of detail in her communications. Highly recommend Lynn’s services!”
“This was our dog’s second stay with Ariana and her dog Yogi. I was very impressed with our dog’s care during her first stay and I was equally impressed during her second stay. Our dog is not easygoing, and at one point I worried whether we would ever be able to find a sitter who would make her feel comfortable. Ariana is that sitter. She provides a loving, relaxed, fun environment and is exceptionally good at communicating with owners. She sets a new standard.”
“Caroline is awesome! She is very kind and attentive; she always sent photos and updates on my dog. My dog seemed very happy and comfortable with her. I will definitely ask for her services again! :)”
“Debbie and her husband took great care of Phoebe and she enjoyed playing with their dogs! I got daily picture updates which made it easier being away from her for a week knowing she was having fun and being taken care of so well. Thank you!!”
“Watched our dog for the weekend. Had a great experience! Good communication and tons of adorable pics. We would definitely book them again. Thank you, Stephanie and Brenton!!”
“Amy did great with Figs. she paid attention to how he reacted with dongdong, and made good modifications. she fed him well and did great with playing and sending cool pics of figgy lounging! love it!”
“Daisy LOVED her time with Amie & her family. Amie was so kind and updated me throughout the stay. Daisy had the best Thanksgiving with Amie’s puppies. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her!!! Highly recommend Amie ❤️”
“Zachary was fantastic hosting Spooky for an extended stay. He was very patient with Spooky building up his confidence in his temporary home and sent lots of photos and updates about how he was doing. I can tell from the photos Spooky became quite comfortable with Zachary and in his house. I would definitely request Zachary watch Spooky again.”
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Lyon
Matthew was great, he was very accommodating. Our dog had plenty of play time and attention: she went on walks and loved having a fenced in yard to explore. Matthew communicated well with us. He provided plenty of updates and pictures, which we really appreciated this having been our first time using someone for boarding!
Patti was wonderful with Ghost! She provided regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She also took the time to let Ghost meet her pets, which I really appreciated. It’s clear Ghost had a great stay and felt comfortable in her care—I think he’s already looking forward to his next visit!
Rebecca was the best sitter we have ever had. She and her family genuinely loved and cared for Baxter. She provided awesome updates on his activities and interactions. We knew Baxter was well cared for and truly enjoyed his time there. I would highly recommend booking Rebecca for your next dog boarding.
Marija is fantastic! We were a little worried leaving Bella for the first time, but Marija was so reassuring. She sent the best daily updates, and seeing Bella so happy in the videos made our trip stress-free. It’s clear Bella loved her stay. We can’t wait to use her services again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in South Lyon on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 1,688 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in South Lyon. About 93% of South Lyon 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.
