“Caroline did a great job with our pups. She made every effort to keep us updated with videos and our dogs were exhausted from playing when we picked them up! Thanks so much, Caroline!”
“Our dog, Fluff, had an great stay and was treated just like family while we were away. Fluff usually has a built-in radar for vets, groomers, and boarding facilities—he’s normally incredibly hesitant to leave the car when we arrive, and when we pick him up after a visit/stay, we typically get the 'stink-eye' and he can't get out the door and into the car soon enough. We didn't have any of those issues at Catherine’s place! He was completely relaxed, which tells us everything we need to know. I feel entirely at ease leaving Fluff with her again and plan to when we leave town again.”
“Susan was great with our girls! From the start, I could tell our fur babies were at ease with her. She sent pictures and updates while they were in her care! She was quick to respond and very easy to work with. We will definitely book with Susan again!”
“Toni is accommodating, friendly and very knowledgeable about dogs, in general. Her facility is wonderful., spacious kennels, clean, orderly and dog oriented. I would highly recommend Toni.”
“They took good care of my pup. They welcomed us in their home and made sure Snuggz was accommodated. They were even so kind to provide a bowl since I forgot to bring one. The communication was also great when needed. I would recommend”
“Mariana was great with our pup! She was easy to communicate and schedule with. During the stay, she communicated frequently and gave plenty of updates on their activities. We really appreciated her and her great work with caring for our dog! Will definitely book a pet sit with her again.”
“Kelsey & Kyle take such great care of Maxx. We’re so grateful and it makes leaving Maxx a whole lot easier when we know he’s going to have a great time! Thank you!”
“Reneé was great with Lily for a short overnight stay! She took lots of cute photos of her. She even squeezed in a quick walk before our pickup time. Lily will be back!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. Kristi and her family took amazing care of our pup while we were out of town. They were very accommodating and communicative. We received updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog came home happy, well exercised, and clearly well loved. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! We will definitely be using them again.”
About: I don’t have any previous pet care experience, but I absolutely love dogs and would love to learn how to take care of them. I want to spend time with them, play with them, take them for walks, and give them lots of love and attention. I’m excited to gain experience, learn about their needs, and build a special bond with them. Even though I’m a beginner, I’m willing to learn and do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have a busy routine, but I would make time to care for a pet. I would enjoy spending time with them, playing with them, taking them for walks, and making sure they have food, water, and a safe place to rest. I would plan my schedule around their needs and give them love and attention every day. I’m new to pet care, but I’m excited to learn and make it part of my routine. I would care for pets with love, patience, and responsibility. I would follow the pet owner’s instructions, make sure the pets have fresh water and food, keep their environment clean and safe, and spend time playing with them. I would also give them attention, take them for walks if needed, and make sure they feel comfortable and secure. Since I’m new to pet care, I’m willing to learn each pet’s needs and follow the owner’s routine carefully.
“Winston loved Kris and fam. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, despite his anxiety. Winston seemed to really get along with her pug! She was very communicative and sent photos and videos. She even dropped him off and made sure he was settled because I had a red eye flight. She also gave him a Christmas stocking which was so sweet. He loved it!”
About: **Back to My Roots. Back to My Passion!** Former owner of KT Specialty Pet Care, I’m excited to return to what I’ve always loved most—caring for pets. I provide loving, dependable, and personalized care for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppy playtime and socialization, walks and exercise, senior pet care, medication administration, in-home visits, and in-home boarding. I also offer limited grooming services, including bathing, nail trims and more. With many years of experience in the veterinary field, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m excited to get back to my roots and my passion for providing the love, attention, and care your pets deserve. I offer flexible pet care options to fit your needs, including morning and evening visits, quick pop-in visits, and walks. I also provide in-home pet care for those who want their furry family members to stay comfortable in their own home, along with limited grooming services such as baths and nail trims. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving you peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. My home has a separate, dedicated space where I can comfortably care for, board, and groom your pets. While I have pets of my own, they will never be exposed to your pet, providing a safe and comfortable environment during their stay. I have extensive experience with overnight stays, medication administration, and caring for pets with a variety of needs. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and well-being are my top priorities, and I will provide them with the same love, attention, and care I would want for my own.
“Jaimee was an excellent dog sitter. It was really reassuring to have someone with so much experience watching our senior dog. He was really happy staying with her and got along well with her dog. She sent photos every day and was very responsive. We would definitely ask her to watch our dog again.”
“Alice is awesome. She was attentive, and also sent daily pics and updates, which was greatly appreciated. She made our first time using Rover a good one, we hope to be able to book with Alice again. Thank you :)”
“Dublin stayed with Brooke & Buddy for 2weeks. He’s always excited when he realizes he’s staying with Brooke. He’s usually tired after picking him up. And I think he may lose some weight which is a good thing.”
“Winston always enjoys his time with Teresa. Teresa takes excellent care of him and sends lots of pictures and updates. Teresa was available on short notice to help us out during an unexpected event. So appreciated. Thank you!”
“Allie really enjoyed all the walks she went on with Mike and all the friends she met along the way. Great communication from Mike before and during our week long stay. Mike genuinely enjoys animals and I felt really confident leaving my little girl with him.”

Melissa was great! I was in a pickle and needed someone to pick up my dog and watch him, while I was out of town. Melissa was so quick to say yes, and she drove out of her way to pick him up. Her communication was amazing. She sent pictures and gave updates. Will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future!
As a first time user of Rover, Melissa was incredibly responsive & helpful in sorting out our booking with only a coujple of days notice. Definitely reduced our stress while travelling to know Johnny would have more individual attention that he would ever have in a regular boarding kennel, plus Melissa's own pups for company & daily trail walks too.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Stockbridge 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 Stockbridge 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 Stockbridge.
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 Stockbridge. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Stockbridge 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.
