“Mary was amazing with my Sadie girl!!!!! She sent me pics and was very kind. I will use her every time I go away. I felt Sadie was safe and cared for. It made it so much easier to leave her”
“Allan is great, very communicative and kind. I never worried about my dog Penny the entire weekend and was able to enjoy myself. Definitely would recommend Allan, and I will be a repeat customer.”
“Jennifer has been very professional and on the top of everything, including keeping me updated with pictures and sending me timely text updates. Her diligence and communication has been excellent.”
“Jayden did a great job with the drop-ins over the long holiday weekend. He communicated well, was easy to work with, and both pups looked happy after each check-in. We’ll definitely book Kayden again!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ George is a gem of a dog sitter! Leaving my pup in someone else’s care is never easy, but George made the entire experience feel seamless and safe. From the moment we met, his calm energy and genuine love for animals were obvious. He kept my dog’s routine intact, sent regular updates (including adorable photos!). What really stood out was how attuned George was to my dog’s emotional needs. She’s usually shy around new people, but she warmed up to him quickly and that speaks volumes. My flight was delayed many times, but he made sure that he was flexible and continued to take care of my dog until I was able to figure things out . I came home to a happy, relaxed pup and a clean home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book George again for all my future trips or recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter.”
“Maria and Augustine are wonderful! They are incredibly friendly, highly responsible, and took amazing care of my dog. I had complete peace of mind knowing my pup was in such safe and caring hands. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!"”
“Rachel is great with pets, she is caring, attentive and understanding. She takes them on walks and there is space to play in a big enclosed yard. We absolutely recommend her.”
“Beth is an absolute Godsend! We brought our service dog, Cooper, with us to Toledo to visit family. We bring Cooper with us everywhere and have never had a problem. This time, the Airbnb we stayed at saw Cooper on their door cam and told us we couldn’t have him there (which is discrimination and illegal). Anyway, I opened up Rover and reached out to Beth after reading through about 15 different bios. Beth was gracious enough to accommodate us extremely last minute, and take Cooper in. Her house and yard were safe and secure both indoor and out. We were very comfortable in the vast experience and skill set she has in animal care. She took exceptional care of Coop, and he had the greatest time playing with her doggies. The pix she sent were epic! Beth was amazing and had the perfect space for “doggie summer camp”, and she was an incredible host. We absolutely cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Snickers hadn’t stayed at a “stranger’s” house in years but she adapted well at Paula’s. Snickers thinks that she is too old to play but apparently she LOVED Paula’s big back yard. Snickers was in good spirits when I picked her up and I would definitely use her again.”
“Everything was great! Susan and Darek took wonderful care of our dog and treated him like a member of their family. Our dog clearly received a lot of love and affection and became best friends with their dog. Communication was perfect. They kept us up to date with lots of pictures and videos which really eased our mind. We have never left our dog with anyone but family before, so we were a little nervous at first. Our dog enjoyed his time with them. We are definitely going to book again in the near future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a little kid. Our family always had a dog and my specialty is belly rubs and long walks I work from home and can spend as much time as possible playing with them. I give unlimited belly rubs and kisses to make them comfortable I have plenty of space to make your dog comfortable and happy with love and lots of rubs and kisses. The dogs have access to lay on the bed and furniture
“Millie is so well cared for, which puts our minds at ease while we travel! We received videos and photos of her playing and we get her back with a nice soft coat as she gets brushed. This was Millie’s 2nd stay and we will return again!!”
“Robert took such good care of my girl! I was so nervous at first about her being away but he made sure it was updated and she was comfortable and well taken care of. My dog even got a chance to make some new friends which is amazing. Thank you again so much! I look forward to the next time babygirl has to go somewhere”
“Dawn was/is great!! I’m just moving to Michigan and she was able to take Spinks short notice. I really appreciate her. Spinks had the time of his life and enjoyed playing with her dog Callie. She is very responsive and will send pics and videos of your pet.”
“Anthony was so sweet with my anxious baby girl! I got lots of pics and videos while she was with him which was very appreciated. Would definitely love to use him again!”
“Our golden doodle Miles had a great time with Amanda and we were able to enjoy our three days away knowing that he was in such good hands. Amanda sent us numerous pictures and kept us I up to date on how he was doing. We' look forward to having her care for our pup when we travel again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Monroe
We had a great experience with Mary! This was our first time leaving our senior dog with a new sitter, so we were a little anxious, but Mary made us feel comfortable. She welcomed Winnie into her home, and we appreciated knowing she had her own bed, treats, and familiar belongings with her. Mary kept us updated with pictures, which was especially reassuring while we were away. Mary was kind, accommodating, and clearly enjoys caring for dogs. Her boyfriend was wonderful with Winnie, too, and she seemed to love him! It was comforting to know she was surrounded by people who welcomed her and made her feel at home. We were very pleased with the care Winnie received and would happily recommend Mary to other pet owners. Thank you both for taking such good care of our girl!
I’m really pleased with Andrew’s communication and care of my dog. The photos and videos were so greatly appreciated and reassuring. This was the longest my dog had spent away from me or family, so having the photos and videos was very welcomed. Thank you! 🐾Kevin would love to come back to play with his friends.

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.
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.
96% of sitters in South Monroe can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 South Monroe 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 South Monroe.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Monroe. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your South Monroe 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
