“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”
“Anna did a great job was little Maizie, she is only 7lbs, but Anna’s Ruby was so sweet to her 🥰 Anna was really attentive to Maizie’s eating habits - she is a picky eater and was able to eat her full meal by day two, would love to rebook with Anna again.”
“Once again he was amazing! Cobra was very happy and excited to see him again! He will definitely continue being my sitter! He treated him like a part of his on family! 🥰”
“Maritza & Daniel did a wonderful job taking care of our Border Collie, Kaylee, while we were out of town for a few days. The updates and pictures they sent kept us informed as to how Kaylee was settling in and showed how happy she was to become a regular part of their day!”
“Luna had a wonderful time at Vicki’s house! She went on walks, enjoyed her time with their dog and felt completely comfortable there! We were also sent lots of pictures and updates. We would definitely have Luna stay there again!”
“My medium labradoodle seemed to be very happy staying with George and I'll definitely book with him again in the future. He was great at sending pictures and videos to keep my mind at ease. He went above and beyond to make sure Butters was able to eat in peace away from the other dogs. Leaving him at a person's house for the first time is really stressful so I thank you George for making it as easy as possible for me and taking great care of Butters.”
“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
“Steven looked after Dipstick with love and affection. From the videos, I could see that my dog enjoyed having lots of butts to sniff. 😂 I definitely will be using Steven’s services again.”
“Kadi was very responsive and professional!! She made the whole process easy and made me feel way less nervous about leaving my baby! We definitely will be having our dog at her place again 😊”
“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.”
“I had a great experience with Cody and would absolutely book with him again. Throughout my dog’s 6-night stay, I received updates and photos on days 1, 3, and 5, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog can be pretty anxious, especially in new environments, but Cody handled him with patience and care. When I picked him up, I could clearly tell he had grown comfortable and even formed a bond with Cody, which says a lot. He was nervous at drop-off, but it was reassuring to see how much more relaxed and at ease he was by the end of his stay. Cody created a safe, welcoming environment and was easy to communicate with throughout the process. I really appreciated the attention given to my dog’s needs and overall well-being. Thank you again for taking good care of him—I’d definitely trust Cody with my pup in the future.”
“Christopher and Cassandra have been great for Diesel. They kept us updates about the stay, sending pictures and videos and letting us know how he was settling in as this was our first time with them. They were flexible with drop off and pickup times and will surely have them at the top of our list for next time.”
“Sogol was nice, kind, thoughtful helpful, caring.... I could go on and on. She not only took great care of O.C., she sent pictures regularly and informative updates almost hourly! "Thank you" is not enough. Sogol is wonderful.”
“Lavina is the best! Great with communication and knowing what’s best for our pup. She loves it over there playing with other dogs and relaxing when she’s not. We’ll keep going back!”
“Tiffany was my main point of contact and she was so sweet and caring with my senior (14yo) husky mix Molly. I received updates each day morning, and night, and she took my Moll Doll on tons of walks. Molly got to sleep on furniture and I can tell she had the time of her life in the new comfy environment. It was such a relief knowing that she was so well loved while I was away that now I feel like I need to take her back for visits to her new favorite home away from home.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Southfield
Rusty had a great time with Sarah. We loved getting messages with videos and pictures of him while we were away. He appeared to be having a great time in all of them. It was reassuring to see that he was being well taken care of (and spoiled 🙂 as much or more than we do). He's been asleep at my side since he came home. Will definitely look into booking with Sarah again when we need someone to watch Rusty.
Kara was an amazing dog sitter for Molly! She was very kind, attentive, and kept us updated with daily pictures while we were away. Molly got plenty of walks, car rides, and attention, and she looked like she was having a great time. It gave us peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would absolutely use Kara again and highly recommend her!
Anna was a wonderful pet sitter. Ozzy stayed with her for the first time for 3 days and he truly didn’t want to leave. He genuinely missed Anna and her dog when we took him home. She sent multiple pictures each day so that I could see how content he was. I will definitely be booking Anna again and highly recommend her.
Heidi once again was an absolutely wonderful caretaker for our sweet dog while we were away! She’s so thorough and sends so many updates. Copper always looks so so happy there! So grateful for Heidi and all her help with Copper, we always know she’s in the best care at Heidi’s!
Jennifer was great with Basil. She sent updates and Basil always looked like he was having a good time and getting lots of attention. It was really hard to leave our pup and Jennifer made us feel a lot better, knowing she was being so caring with him. I would recommend Jennifer and use her again.
Hannah was absolutely AMAZING with our 2 high energy boys! It was my first time using a rover sitter & I would bring my babies back to Hannah 100 times over. She was so kind & understanding and I could tell she really listened to every thing I told her. Bleu is typically nervous around men so I wasn’t sure how he would be in a house with a man, but Hannah’s fiance was an ADDED BONUS! He and Bleu played every day & just loved eachother. Their kind & calm energy was apparent the second we stepped into their home to pick up our boys- my pets were so freaking calm and relaxed and it put any guilt I had at ease! I will be using a sitter more often now that I know how amazing she will be to my boys!!
I used Rover the first time during the Thanksgiving Holiday. I’m so glad Krystal was available to watch my puppy after my initial plans fell through. Krystal sent daily pictures and videos of Ace while I was away. I would use Krystals services again and would definitely recommend.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Southfield
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Southfield on Rover is $29.92 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,715 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Southfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Southfield sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Southfield landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Southfield 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 Southfield.
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 Southfield 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.
