“When I drop Lemon off she doesn’t even look back at me because she knows she’s getting the utmost love and care. I enjoy the updates and photos of Lemon eating well, exercising/playing and sleeping with happiness in her body language. I always know that she’s in great hands.”
“Nathan and his family are excellent dog sitters. Duke had a great time. He was sending pictures so I can see how Duke was managing being away from home. I truly appreciate the great care they gave my dog. I’ll definitely use them again.”
“Joshua watched Stella for 4 nights. He took wonderful care of her. We had a great experience. He sent daily updates and gave us such peace of mind during my daughter’s wedding week. Reliable, communicative and trust worthy, I truly appreciate all his help and would highly recommend him.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care she gave my Lola! Lindsay took her on regular walks, made sure she was comfortable and happy, and kept me updated the entire time with messages and photos. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Lola was in such loving and responsible hands. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely trust Lindsay with Lola again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”
“We left our dog two times with Tory and her family already and we will contact them again in the future. Prompt communication, always keep you updated. They took good care of my dog. He always comes back exhausted, which is good.”
“Nani had a longer stay with Cody and I had no concerns! He did a great job following additional instructions due to the longer stay and kept me updated throughout my trip. I feel confident in Cody and his ability to intervene and mediate between dogs in case any overexcitement or aggression happens. I feel comfortable leaving Nani with him knowing she’s in good hands!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my 9-month-old puppy! She was absolutely amazing—so kind, patient, and clearly experienced with young dogs. I got regular updates and pictures, which helped me feel totally at ease while I was away. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I could tell she truly treated her like one of her own. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Maritza and Daniel are amazing! Bowi stayed with them for 6 days They made sure we felt comfortable. Maritza is an excellent communicator. She sent me lots of pictures and updates everyday. She made me feel confident that Bowi is safe and Loved. I can't recommend her enough! We will leave our precious Bowi with her again 100%. Thank you Maritza and Daniel again for everything.”
“Cheri and her family were warm and welcoming of Vinnie! She gave plenty of pupdates during the stay. He was well taken care of with treats and toys and had a great time! I felt at ease while he was away knowing he was getting the best!”
“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!!!”
“Kristen is amazing. She really gives all her love and attention to the lucky pup in her care. My boy is getting older and has developed some anxiety but he was so taken with Kristen. I received many updates on how he was doing, including pictures and videos. I could see that he was so happy! I especially love the fact that Kristen only takes care of one family's pup(s) at a time, allowing her to focus on them during a potentially stressful time. When I arrived to pick him up after 8 days, he was excited to see me but also calm, showing no signs of stress or anxiety. Kristen was the perfect person to care for him.”
“Britnie took great care of my dog and kept me updated daily with details and photos. My dog is very comfortable with her and she clearly does a great job with him. I recommend her services to anyone with a small dog.”
“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!”
“So kind to my senior pooch. Was always taking photo updates. She spoiled her rotten. I still thinks she wants to go back to Kelly asap for her cuddles and yummy home made food, my girl gets anxious while we're away. She had multiple dogs over and she did great. ? recommend.”
“Tracey is was great to our girls. They loved her. She provided updates and pics everyday. I will definitely think of her in the future when I need a sitter, she provides a five star service. I highly recommend her.”

This is the second time Kshama has watched our puppy and she does such a great job. My puppy gets along so well with her dog and comes home happy and tired from all the fun she had. Kshama is great with updates so you know your pup is well taking care of. I would highly recommend.
This was our dog's first time staying away from us and Ashley and her family made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. From our initial meet and greet, to drop off and pick up, they were kind, welcoming, and communicative. Ashley's calm and confident approach with our boy and other dogs is one of the things I appreciated the most. Ashley sent photo updates whenever we asked and then some, which meant the world to us. We could tell our boy was well taken care of and when we need a dog sitter again they will be our first option!
We had a great experience with Giselle. Our dog, Oden was well taken care of. She followed our instructions as to how to properly care for him. Giselle even took the time to let Oden explore her home before introducing her 2 dogs. She took the time to play tug with Oden because she knows that is his favorite activity. Giselle sent plenty of photos and videos to reassure us that he was engaged, safe and having a pleasant experience. We really appreciate the time and effort Giselle put into watching our fur baby, Oden. Lastly, we love her fair, competitive pricing and we will book again. Thanks again.

There are 1,434 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Sterling Heights. About 93% of Sterling Heights 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.

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 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.
