“Mary was very kind and accommodating to take care of our sweet, busy bee girl at the last minute. She kept us updated with pictures and a video of our girls 3 day stay. We felt very at ease knowing she was under great care. Thank you!”
“Andrew was a fantastic sitter for our girl Bailey. He was always responsive and great to work with. We received many photos and videos each day showing Bailey happy and active. We would recommend Andrew and use him again.”
“David is awesome! He took such great care of Piper! She had a great time, I don’t think she wanted to come home. He sent lots of pictures, which was so nice because I always miss her when I leave. Very grateful for David:)”
“Our dog had to get stitches on her paw just a week before her stay with Laura and Manuel, so I let them know about the situation and they were totally on board with following whatever was needed to help her heal. She had a great time as always with the dogs that were there and they did a great job caring for her with her special instructions. I’m so glad we were able to still go on our trip and know she’d be well cared for!”
“Rachel was wonderful. She was attentive and caring to my much older dog that recently experienced some trauma in other boarding settings. Rachael helped her to adjust to the transition of staying in a new place and she sent regular photos and reports of her progress. When I picked up my dog, Rachel and her partner provided what felt like honest feedback back regarding some limitations my dog experienced with other animals at their house as well as shared behaviors they observed that I didn’t know my dog did until the two day visit with them. First instance - learned my dog definitely would hunt a cat if given the chance - this is useful intel future bookings. I definitely recommend Rachel to anyone.”
“Katie was truly wonderful with my dog! She asked me lots of questions on how to best care for her and make her comfortable, was super communicative, and sent me lots of sweet pictures. I felt confident that my dog was not only safe but was with someone who wanted to make sure she was happy and comfortable. I’ll definitely reach out to Katie next time I need a sitter!”
About: I got my first dog when I was in 12. Her name was Egypt and she was a red nose pit and at the time i didn’t know much about dogs but the love i grew for her and caring for her was so deep. She needed me for everyday survival but I learned I needed her much more than she needed me. I feel that way about all animals and I will treat your pet as if they are Egypt. I have dog sat friends/family pets before as well, i walked, fed, bathed, their/my pets as well as cleaning their enclosures and dealing with doggie periods. I also have cared for a hamster and bearded dragon before so I have experience will pets other than cats or dogs! I’m currently working 11-7pm shifts with Wednesday and Sundays off, so I am free before 11, after 7 and all day on the days I do not have work! I’d like to fit in pet care as much as I can! I often do drop-ins/walks on my lunch break so that is always an option as well! Just message me :) I currently live at an apartment and would prefer to care for your pets in your home however, I do offer boarding as well. I have no problem cleaning up and refreshing the food bowls and litter boxes. Also making sure there are no paw prints on the floor if it’s wet or muddy outside. I love cleaning so also just cleaning up after myself or your pet if an accident occurs.
“She watched my two dogs while I went Out of the country. She did a great job keeping me updated and sending photos. My dogs were very well taken care of and happy when I saw Them. She’s someone I trust with my dogs and would use her again :)”
“Trial run with our GSD Chase went amazing. Received photo/video/text updates. Heading on vacation at the end of the month and feel completely comfortable leaving him for a week.”
“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.”
“Fantastic First-Time Fur Baby Sitting! Overall Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) Our first experience with Diane & Duncan couldn't have been better! From the moment we met, it was clear they love dogs and knew how to handle them with care. They kept me updated, and Rockie was happy and content when I returned. Highly recommended!”
“Ariana is a perfect dog sitter. Her residence is fenced in and her dog Yogi 🐾 🐕🦺 is so friendly. My Pfeifer had a blast and was worn out from all the play time. She slept all the way home and most of the remaining day. Will use Ariana again in a heartbeat.”
“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.”
“We left our two dogs with Kristen for three days and everything was great. The dogs had a wonderful time at her house and it gave us peace of mind while we were away. Thank you Kristen!”
“She’s absolutely wonderful with Rex! Knowing he’s happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her home makes being away so much easier. Her genuine love for dogs really shows, and we couldn’t be happier to have found her. Highly recommend!”

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.
95% of sitters in Steiner 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 Steiner 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 Steiner.
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 Steiner. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Steiner 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.
