“So kind and accommodating! Piper had a great time with Deb and Malcomb! Thank you for taking care of piper while we traveled to a family reunion out of state. Knowing that piper was in a home environment with dog lovers made us feel at ease. Deb was very good at sharing pictures and keeping us updated daily on our Miss Piper. A+ experience. Will highly recommend and will use in future. This was our very first Rover.com experience and it was good! Thank you!!”
“Darcy and Dan took wonderful care of my pup! They asked very thoughtful questions during the meet and greet and are clearly huge dog lovers. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in their care. Darcy and Dan provided updates, photos, and a video throughout the stay. I already booked my dog's next stay.”
“Wonderful overnight stay with Shashank and his pup. He is so great at dog training and anticipating our dog’s emotions and needs. We were fully happy and anxiety-free leaving our dog in Shashank’s trusted hands. One of the BEST rover homes (and we have tried a dozen!)”
“Oscar made sure that my fur baby was well taken care of, I felt I had nothing to worry about! I received some pictures throughout the stay and overall, my pup seemed very calm coming home! 10/10 would recommend!”
“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.”
“Moxie had an amazing time with Arling and his wife. Since Moxie is a puppy, they kept her on her schedule and followed the same routine that we have established. All the personal attention was great! The pictures of the walks they took warmed our hearts! We will most definitely be using them again.”
“This is the third time that Laura and Manuel have watched our two pups and they are beyond amazing. We knew that the dogs were having the best time and were very well taken care of. They sent us pictures and updates throughout our trip and are always responsive.”
“Renee took very good care of Bean for eleven days while my husband and I took a cruise. It was so nice to know Bean had company and was in good hands while we were away. This was my first experience with boarding a cat and the Rover app was a great help. I searched offers in my area, read Renee’s profile and we exchanged information. Bean enjoyed the meet and greet and that sealed the deal. Renee sent pictures and kept us informed. I highly recommend her service.”
“Katie is amazing! Zews loves coming to visit with her when he cannot be with us. Katie is always quick to respond and she sends photos of Zews when I am missing him. I know he is getting lots of hugs and cuddle time when he is with her. Thanks again Katie!”
“Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of our dog while we were out of town. She is a very kind and responsible person and I felt that I can trust her right when I met her. She updated us with pictures and messages every day, which was great. Absolutely will go back to her in the future!”
“This was our first time using a service like this. I felt so comfortable leaving our dog with Erin and her husband. I appreciated updates and photos showing how much fun he was having. You can tell they both are great dog owners and true dog lovers. I can tell our dog was loved and cared for while we were away. Thank you so much!”
“Kayden did a terrific job with my 18 week old puppy. I'd been having significant behavioral problems with the pup and Kayden did very well with her and offered me guidance to help get the problems under control at home. Kayden was very responsive to my questions while I was out of town and sent photos as well. Kayden was extremely well organized in managing my dog's meet 'n greet and all the elements of her six day stay. I'd been worried about leaving a very young, not fully house-broken dog but she clearly had a great time. I'm not sure she wanted to return home! Kayden went above and beyond all my expectations.”
“Ginsberg had a great time while we were gone. Teresa made her a part of the family letting her warm up at her own pace. She loved hanging out in the huge backyard with friends and lounging on the couch watching household activities and sleeping. Highly recommend Teresa. She’s sent lots of pictures and updates so I could see Ginsberg was happy and relaxed.”
“We have a very needy senior dog and Heather did a great job with him. He can be high maintenance but she was very kind and patient and sent updates and pictures and said he was welcome back. We were very happy to have found her.”

“They were very well cared for. Updates were provided twice a day, they offered more if we needed it. All questions I had up to and during the process were answered quickly. Our very anxious cats came home and immediately began being themselves and acting right as rain.”
“Abigail is the best! She always takes such good care of Colby. I was so lucky she was available to extend her care when my flight got cancelled. Thank you so much!!”
“I have nothing but good things to say about Kelly! She is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about animals, and I felt very reassured that my cat would be in good hands while I was away. She is also reliable and takes initiative to go above and beyond in taking care of both your pet and home. I highly recommend her! :)”
“Jessi was just absolutely wonderful. She sent updates of her activities with Spooky everyday, as well as lots of cute photos of playtime and pets. She was also extremely pleasant during our meet-and-greet and definitely took care to follow specific instructions. I will absolutely be asking her in the future to look after Spook.”
“Greyson already knew my one cat Ozzy and he was automatically comfortable knowing they were back. My other cat Sweetie hadn't met them before so Greyson was kind enough to come over for a meet and greet before the stay. She mostly hid, only coming out for one far away glance. Despite Sweeties initial trepidation it was so sweet to watch the progress through Greysons notes and pictures of Sweetie getting comfortable with them to the point of being willing to bug them for breakfast.”
“Casey took care of my cat and bunny over the holiday weekend. My animals are low maintenance, but she did a fantastic job and made me feel secure. She communicates well and has the best interest of the pets in mind.”
“Rani is Heaven sent! We had a prior arrangement that was not going well and Rani was available and flexible and soooo good with our cat, Loki. She really gave him the love and affection that we would have, which is exactly what we were looking for! You will not go wrong with leaving your fur babies in her hands. Thank you again, Rani! You restored our peace. God bless you!”
“Thank you, Fatima, for your daily drop-in care for our Gladys. Your daily notes and pictures of Gladys during your time with her was much appreciated. I will continue to request your service for Gladys for our upcoming travels.”
“Lauren & Cris were amazing to my kitties while I was away for Christmas. They gave excellent notes and even stick around longer than they needed to (on Christmas Eve!) because one of my cats ate up the medication we left out for the entire trip. I felt very secure having them there and would definitely book again. 10/10 - wish I could give more stars. ☺️”
“Alexis was absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend booking with her! She is super attentive to your fur babies & treats them as her own! She took my Leo on a walk & sent me the best check-in pictures! She did an 11/10 job & i truly suggest you book with her in the future! Thank you so much Alexis for being super kind, and helpful🫶”
“Allison is a great pet sitter. She is prompt with her communication and sends photos from each visit. I feel confident that my dog is in good hands when Allison is completing drop in visits. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I am recently widowed and life feels pretty lonely. I currently cannot afford to have a dog of my own but I adore them and all animals and I would love to give my time to your fur babies while your away. I have been pet and house sitting for over 22 years. I used to work at a pet store and I have a lot of experience with dogs and animals of all sizes and needs. I use a loving but firm and peaceful approach with training. My German Shepherd named Ravin was my amazing companion for 13 years and I enjoyed going on adventures to find sticks, playing ball, tug of war and just snuggling and getting love. I'd love to do the same for your fur baby.
“(This is my second review, go read my first!). As a dual pilot household with no family in the area and 3 cats, we need care for our cats often. We are SO SO thankful for finding Silvia on here. She is truly the best! She is someone you can count on, reliable, responsive, and soo caring to our cats. We have booked her multiple times since we first booked her. Look no further, your animals will be in the best care!”
“Jaime did a great job caring for my cat. Responses from Jaime were timely, lots of photos and updates! Everything was clean and well managed while I was gone. I will definitely book him again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Oakville
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: Hi there! We accept small to medium-sized dogs (20 pounds max or less) and typically care for no more than 4 dogs at a time. Under our careful supervision, your pup can interact and play freely, enjoying both the house and our spacious, clean, secure and fenced-in backyard. They are not confined to kennels or cages, and can sleep wherever they feel comfortable, whether in the open or in their own crate. We have many nooks and crannies for the pups to relax in and many soft, clean blankets and pillows. They will have ample time outdoors for fresh air, exercise and fun (weather permitting), and the rest of course spent indoors, having fun, resting, playing games (we have many many puzzles and snuffle mats) and occasionally having a yummy, owner approved treat (we don't want upset tummies). They are regularly let out for potty breaks and fresh air every 1 to 2 hours, and never left unattended. WHAT WE WOULD LOVE TO KNOW: We understand each dog has their own personality, likes, dislikes, and temperament. ****A meet-n-greet is required prior to the start of any service.**** -Unless arranged by special request during the week, they are usually on Saturdays and Sundays and by appointment. -Please allow enough time prior to your reservation to arrange for the meet-n-greet. LAST MINUTE REQUESTS: We will do our best to accommodate those in tight spots, but generally we only reserve this option for established clients only. VACCINATIONS: Please ensure your pup is up-to-date with vaccinations before boarding to protect them and our little ones from illnesses. PHOTOS: We know how important peace of mind is, so we send consistent, informative photos/updates/videos of your little one so that you know what they are up to and so that you can rest assured that they are doing well! LOCATION: We are located right outside of Ann Arbor - perfect spot near highways and shops! MEDICATION: Yes, we do provide, however, we do not provide service to pets that are sick/ill/recovering/ or need medical attention during their stay. We do provide service to pets that are in good health but require maintenance medications, with vets' approval. FIRST AID/CPR: As of November 2024, we are actively working on finding a reputable organization to refresh our human and pet first aid and CPR certification! ABOUT OUR LITTLE ONES: Archie and Roxy are our two adorable, little terriers who love to have fun - they would be co-hosting with me. My husband works from home, so there is generally always someone home. Either my husband, who works from home, or I will be on hand to supervise the dogs at all times. Ensuring your dogs' safety is my highest priority. A LITTLE ABOUT US: My husband and I are super responsible, incredibly loving dog parents. I was raised with dogs, and other animals, as was my husband (who grew up on a farm here in Michigan). Combined, we have closer to 20 plus years of experience in taking care of our own furbabies, those of our neighbors, and various other kinds of pets. We've been there, worried and stressed out over having to find someone trustworthy who will treat and love our little ones with the same level of care and concern that we do! Being super loving, very protective, and knowledgeable pet parents ourselves, we know full well how stressful it can be to rely on someone else. We are great communicators and continuously strive to educate ourselves and learn about the best new dog products, services, treats, etc. Please rest assured that we will do our best to answer your questions and concerns. It's always a joy to connect with fellow pet parents who are just as devoted and loving to their family members as we are to ours! My schedule tends to be flexible. My husband works from home as well- it’s a joy to have little ones running around! There is always someone at home with a watchful eye - your pup will never be left alone. The importance of temperament cannot be overstated; if there are particular household rules to increase the comfort of your furbaby, I will follow them to the letter. I would like to know if he/she has any medical issues, special needs, etc. A veterinarian's contact information and instructions would be required if medication is needed - this of course also applies if they have special dietary needs, allergies, etc.
“Maria was so great. Got many updates. Even a nice quick one after i left because Molly was a little timid to have me leave, she can be shy at first. I was sad to leave her on her first doggie daycare. But Marie made everything great, she shared multiple pictures that she warmed up and went on walkies and she seemed to have a great time. I hope to make this a weekly occasion! It was nice to be stress free at work.”
“Katie was very accommodating and took our three dogs in for the night in a very short notice. She took care of the dogs very well and kept us informed on how they were doing. Will use her again if we are back in town.”
“Novah had a great day with Rachel and Michael and Ember! Novah loved running in their very large fenced in yard. Rachel went out of her way to make sure everything went smoothly. And Michael spent a long time with Novah outside playing with her and working on training activities. I highly recommend Rachel if you want a fun and safe place for your dog for day care! Thank you Rachel and Michael! Novah is excited to see you all again soon!”
“Mina did an excellent job taking care of our 4 year old golden retriever, Jerry! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate a last second request, she took perfect care of Jerry, and sent lots of photos and videos. 5 star sitter!!”
About: I have had dogs since I was little, helped my parents walk, feed, bathe, clean up after them. I had my own dog for 12 years. My children also love dogs and love to help with them. I work evenings but while I'm at work my husband is home with our children so someone is always home to take care of your dog. We have a little yard but can offer unlimited potty breaks, clean environment, an area for naps and bedtime. Lots of love from my children to keep them entertained!
“With my first puppy I quickly became worried i'd never be able to take a vacation. George eased my own separation anxiety and I was comfortable taking my first day trip away from my 8 month old puppy knowing she was safe and cared for.”
“Oscar and Shannon were great! Maintained good walking habits for my pup and sent me updates during the day. Super responsive and easy to coordinate with. Will definitely be coming back to them.”
“Kali had her 2nd daycare stay with Kayden and she had SO much fun! We got lots of pictures of her during her stay which was awesome! Kayden was very kind and professional and experienced! We will definitely bring our Kali girl back!”
“Jane is fantastic! She responds to my request quickly and is easily communicated. She is taking a good care of my puppy, play with him, walk him and send me pictures/video that greatly soothe my nerves (as this is my first time to trust someone to take care of my high-energy puppy).”
About: I am a lifelong dog lover! I've grown up with dogs and had my own family dog for the past 25 years. I would be happy for your dog to join me and my active Dobe for some play, walks, hikes or even snuggle time. I have a large fenced dog run and I live in a wonderful rural area with lots of parks and long gravel roads for exploring and walking. I currently work from home with a lot of flexibility in my work schedule. I love a morning and afternoon walk or hik (weather permitting) with the dogs. I have a fenced dog run and a goofy Dobe to keep your dog company. My dog is fully up to date on vaccinations and our dog is truly part of our family. We are looking for doggie friends to come and play. Lots of love and attention to share!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, horses, and all sorts of pets for most of my life. From Great Danes to Shih Tzus I love all the puppies! I have a miniature bernedoodle and a Shih Tzu currently that I raised from puppies and they are very well behaved. I have watched an older dog who needed liquid IVs and pills and everything went well with him. I currently have three dogs at home. I work part time and can schedule work every week based around what I am doing, so I am pretty much always available as long as it’s about a week in advance. I can be at home as much as needed! I have three friendly dogs (two don’t like to play much but one loves to play) at home and no cats in the house. We do potty breaks every couple of hours which consists of just letting the dogs out in the yard which is not fenced in. Whenever I watch dogs at the house, I am always certain to take the dogs out on leash. If the puppers aren’t the best on leash that’s alright as well, I just use a harness or whatever the owners provide.
“As usual, Nicole took great care of our little Freya. She was very flexible and accommodating which we really appreciate. Freya always comes back happy and exercised. We’ll keep coming back ☺️”
“Allyssa is amazing! She really goes above and beyond making sure our dog is cared for and given all the love and attention she needs. Our senior dog has a lot of health issues, and Allyssa has been amazing at making sure she’s taken care of and comfortable (even during an unexpected power outage today!). Thank you so much!”
“Samantha was amazing! My husband and I took Maru to Michigan and needed someone to watch her while we attended an event. Maru spent two days with Samantha’s family, and we picked her up at nights. Our puppy is almost 6 months old and hadn’t been around many people or dogs, but Samantha and her family gave her outstanding care and great socialization. Maru came back to us happy and loved. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone who wants their dog to be safe, happy, and well-socialized while they’re away.”

About: We provide boarding for your cat or dog in a family-based environment. We try to keep a structured and caring home environment for pets while their owners are away. Our goal is to keep the experience for you and your pet as safe and stress free as possible. Additionally, I have First Aid and CPR Certification for cats and dogs. I am also Fear Free Certified. Being Fear Free Certified means I was trained to look at subtle signs of stress in dogs and cats before they escalate. As well as techniques to make interactions with dogs and cats less stressful. My husband works from home, and I'm also at home with my children. During the school year I do drop off and pick up for the kids. My husband is home at this time. Therefore, dogs are generally always supervised, although there may be brief periods of time we are all out of the home. We have an area designated for the dogs in our home. This helps reduce the risk of escaping and helps keep them more safe. We also have a fenced in backyard. However, we always supervise interactions in the backyard between dogs or when the dogs are alone.
“Jaime did a great job walking our old girl. She needs some special attention and he was able to provide that for us. We’re very protective of our dog and he made us feel at ease. Communication was also very good.”
“Tusk was so excited to go on a run / walk with Eric. The minute Eric pulled into the parking lot, Tusk met him at the door, ready to start his walk. Eric and Tusk ran and walked. Tusk came home, happily tired. Eric kept me updated with photos and video. I highly recommend Eric. This was their first walk together. They immediately bonded. I was so relieved.”
About: I have 2 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience following specific routines and instructions to keep pets happy and comfortable.

I do not have a fenced yard but I have a porch with a gate, I have had dogs 100 lbs & have had no issue! :) I make sure I go on plenty of walks to try and make up for the lack of yard space, lol! 😂
About: I’ve had many dogs growing up and recently lost a dog of my own. I’m currently a nurse to humans but my caregiving extends to the doggos as well. I specialize in senior dogs but am open to all ages and walks of life. I work three days a week so unfortunately I can’t really do a consistent schedule except for Sundays. I’m flexible the other days so keep checking back when you need me. :) I recently had a senior fur baby who I carried up and down the stairs with compassion and care. I love dogs and will get to know their personality and quirks to work to fit the needs of each one.

“Rani is a sweet gal with a willing spirit. She was patient with my dog and successful with the walk (my dog was putting her head down and not wanting to go forward) It was the perfect midday break. Sweet Pea got a walk, human company and potty relief. I’m so glad we found Rani to help. I recommend her wholeheartedly”

About: I currently have a small dog with diabetes and need to give her insulin every 12 hours. Both of our babies have a health care plan with our veterinarian and all vaccinations are up to date. They both love taking walks in the park and riding in the car. My other dogs previous to these were 15 years old plus. I love dogs and dogs seem to love me too. I have a fenced in back yard and a large house. Our babies normally have run of the entire house. I would love to work in the Humane Society although, I would want to take them all home with me. It also saddens me to see commercials with the neglected animals and the conditions that they are subjected to. I wish that I could save all of the dogs that are neglected. I have taken care of dogs since I was thirteen years old. I have also taken care of friends dogs when they are gone on vacation. I will be retired and will have time to spend with the dogs that I will be caring for.

Will highly recommend and will use in future. This was our very first Rover.com experience and it was good! Thank you!!”

“Wonderful overnight stay with Shashank and his pup. He is so great at dog training and anticipating our dog’s emotions and needs. We were fully happy and anxiety-free leaving our dog in Shashank’s trusted hands. One of the BEST rover homes (and we have tried a dozen!)”

“Kayden did a terrific job with my 18 week old puppy. I'd been having significant behavioral problems with the pup and Kayden did very well with her and offered me guidance to help get the problems under control at home. Kayden was very responsive to my questions while I was out of town and sent photos as well. Kayden was extremely well organized in managing my dog's meet 'n greet and all the elements of her six day stay. I'd been worried about leaving a very young, not fully house-broken dog but she clearly had a great time. I'm not sure she wanted to return home! Kayden went above and beyond all my expectations.”
“We have a very needy senior dog and Heather did a great job with him. He can be high maintenance but she was very kind and patient and sent updates and pictures and said he was welcome back. We were very happy to have found her.”
“George is the best of the best! It was apparent I made the right decision on who I was leaving my dog with within a couple minutes of meeting George, he’s very well knowledgeable and clearly knows how to handle doggies! (my pup literally listened better to him then he does me ha!) It was obvious through the pics I was sent that my pupper Callaway had the best time while my boyfriend and I were out of town for the week! There’s plenty of room at george’s place for the pup to run around and play, which was priority since I have a very energetic dog! Callaway frequently experienced separation anxiety so it was such a relief to find a place for him to go where he feels comfortable enough to be his playful self! He settled in almost immediately and barely whined while he was left alone in his kennel there, which was very out of the ordinary for our dog. and now back at home he’s been wayy less stressed when we have to leave him alone to go to work! I think he built some confidence there for sure, which wouldn’t have been possible without him having that comfortable environment. Thank you George for your awesome services, 10/10 recommend and will 100% be back the next time we have to leave town! :)”
“Lizzy, Brain, and Pepper welcomed our two pups into their home with genuine care. They willingly arranged a meet-and-greet ahead for our comfort. During their stay we received regular updates of the attention and fun they shared. We will be rebooking.”
“Christopher has become my "go to" sitter for Sadie. She can be cautious when meeting new people but has gotten more comfortable with every visit. I am grateful she has found a second home where she can be happy when I am away. Christopher and Braden are great hosts, and Frank (their dog) is good company.”
“Sydney was amazing!!! Poor Charlie got sick with 2 parasites right before his visit. He was feeling much better after a few days on medication so Sydney still was willing to take him in. She continued the rest of his treatment which consisted of multiple medications at carousing times throughout the day. She continued to provide us updates through out his stay and reassured us that he was definitely on the up and up the whole time. Her location is ideal for airport travel as she is only about 10 minutes from DTW. We will absolutely use Sydney in the future!! Thank you again!”
“Janelle is wonderful! This was our first time leaving our puppy with someone and she welcomed Sierra, quirks and all. She sent updates with pictures and/or videos daily so we could see how Sierra was doing. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Amazing experience with Joann! Very reliable, communicative, and our dog clearly adored her. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
“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!”
