“We have a wonderful experience boarding our dog with Paula. She is very loving and sent us pics everyday to keep us informed. She responds to your message in a very timely manner. I can tell that my dog enjoyed his stay with Paula. You are the BEST Paula. I highly recommend her for your pet care/boarding.”
“Tara did a fabulous job! Submitted photos daily and kept me updated on my dog’s stay! I’m sure he didn’t want to come home because he made friends there…a great family, too.”
“Debbie watched our 14 year old golden retriever Maggie for 11 days. She was great with updated photos of Maggie. Maggie was well cared for and we were very happy with Debbie.”
“Stephanie, Brenton and their kids took great care of our boy, Samson. They consistently sent texts and pics to let us know how he was doing. Wonderful family!!”
“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.”
“Amie and her family are absolutely wonderful!! They took just incredible care of my little Kaju. Sent me pictures to tell me about everything she had been up to…cannot say enough nice things about her. Thank you SO MUCH, Amie! Looking forward to many many more OG Kaju’s stays with you 🥰”
“As always Kayden made our lives so much easier by taking our 2 rascally mutts while we had family over for the holidays. It's such a relief to have someone reliable to leave our girls with.”
“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!”
“Kristin is such a great dog sitter! She was flexible with time changes and totally adjusted easily to us having to add meds to be given two times a day. And she sent us cute pics and nice updates daily.”
“Super kind and communicated with an update once a day. Definitely recommend to anyone that needs help with their four-legged family member. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again for future dog-sitter needs.”
“Amazing, super sweet and I appreciated how she sent alot of pics and vids of my pup with updates of what they were doing!!🫶🏾 would definitely recommend and will be a returning customer”
“So grateful to Erin, Ian and family for taking such great care of our Cleo while we were gone. Communication and flexibility were excellent. We had pictures and updates regularly. Cleo came home happy and healthy, which tells us she had a great time and was under exceptional care.”
“Dia was great with our pup, from the time we connected for a meet and greet we felt comfortable. Dia provided great communication and photos throughout our dog's stay. We certainly will entrust her with our fur baby again!”
“Lauren and Cris took excellent care of Bug. They sent regular updates, lots of cute pictures, and even sent him home with a treat and a new toy. I'd definitely recommend them!”

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.
