“Holly was wonderful with our dogs. We had never boarded our dogs before and she helped us to feel comfortable doing so. Communication and care for our fur babies was wonderful. Thank you so much Holly!”
“Beth took excellent care of our dog, Ellie. She sent pictures and replied to our texts promptly. This is the first time in 6 years, since we adopted Ellie, that we have left her. After the meet and greet we had no problems leaving her with Beth”
“We had such a positive experience with Victoria! She went above and beyond with communication throughout Charlie’s stay and when Charlie wasn’t seeming to be feeling good, she reached out to let us know and even took her to the vet for us. She was able to care for Charlie, provide her with her medication for what turned out to be a double ear infection and when I picked her up, she seemed very understanding of the medications purpose and dosing instructions. Best dog sitter we have ever had, hands down! We will definitely be contacting Victoria again for our next trip away!”
“Such wonderful humans!! They made me feel so comfortable leaving my anxious girl in their care for the weekend. They helped her settle in and gave her so much love. I received lots of updates and pictures that eased my heart and made me smile while I was away! I'd recommend them to everyone in a heart beat ❤️”
“Leah was very friendly and easy to work with. It is clear she loves what she does and is fantastic with dogs. My Maggie felt comfortable staying with Leah and came back with a wag in her tail. I will definitely book with her again in the future and highly recommend.”
About: Hi there! I’m Paige — a registered nurse and work-from-home mom who absolutely loves caring for dogs. Because I’m home full-time, your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection throughout the day. I live on a beautiful 22-acre property with plenty of space to roam, sniff, and explore! While our yard isn’t fully fenced, I do have a secure, gated outdoor area where dogs can safely play and stretch their legs under my supervision. With my nursing background, I’m comfortable providing both oral and injectable medications, and I take pride in making sure every pet’s health and safety come first. Our home is family-friendly — with a child and a friendly resident dog — so I ask that visiting pups be both kid-friendly and dog-friendly to keep everyone happy and safe. ⸻ What I Offer: 🐕 Boarding & daycare in my home — dogs are part of the family here! 💉 Medication administration, including injections 🦮 Supervised outdoor playtime in our gated yard area 📸 Photo & text updates so you can see how much fun your pup is having ❤️ Constant care & attention from a stay-at-home nurse ⸻ Requirements: To ensure a safe and happy environment for everyone, I ask that all dogs are: 🐶 Dog-friendly 👶 Kid-friendly 💉 Up to date on vaccines and flea/tick prevention ⸻ Home Setup: • 22 acres of peaceful land to explore • Secure, gated outdoor area for playtime • Cozy indoor spaces for naps and snuggles • Always supervised care — your dog will never be left unattended outdoors Work from home, home most days all day, may be gone for a few hours a day a few days a week, never gone for more then a few hours My husband and I live on 22 acres and have plenty of room for your dogs to play with our 2 dogs! Dogs must be friendly, not aggressive and friendly with kids.
“Taylor and family are always such a blessing for us! I know I can always leave our fur baby with them and feel 100% confident that she is in great hands! Taylor provides continuous updates and pictures throughout our pet’s stay giving us constant peace of mind :)”
“Andrew and Morgan were absolutely amazing! They sent daily updates, and we could see that our dog was extremely comfortable with them. They were great at communicating, and asked questions to make the transition to their house seamless while we were gone. They even did a themed photoshoot. We highly recommend booking with them.”
“He’s is my “Go-To”! She is so attentive to my baby and I love that she sends updates every day along with pictures throughout the day. I can tell by what she writes to me how much she loves having my baby there with her. Her entire family is so welcoming, they immediately make you feel like family. This is my second time with Jes and I plan many more visits with her.”
“Fabulous sitter! She was quick to reply and took care of our babe last minute. She even went out of her way to drop him off for us, and waited 5-10 minutes extra due to our event not being done yet. HIGHLY recommend! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”
“Angie was so sweet with Oliver. He can be anxious but she and Daisy made him feel right at home! They had fun taking long walks, doing yoga and snuggling together. He loved his stay! Will definitely leave him with her again. Appreciated receiving pics and updates throughout the visit.”
“Ellen updated my dog's daily activities constantly. This gave me a piece of mind, thinking that my dog is in a good hand. Additionally, my dog got to play with other dogs during his boarding period, which was really awesome! We will definitely come back when we need cares.”
“Samantha was great. Needed a last minute boarder and she was flexible and available! She sent many pictures/videos. Sparty loved hanging out with her and her pets!”
About: In the past I was able to dog sit for this lady whenever she would go on vacation. I loved coming home to the dog and would take care of him like he was mine! I am available to walk your dog(s) after 3pm weekdays and anytime on weekends! I can also dog sit whenever! Preferably at the owners house! If I’m sitting at your house I’m sure to take the dog out as soon as I come home from work and even come home to them on my break to let them out.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I’ve spent more than 25 years caring for them, and I love having them around so much that even my employees used to bring their dogs to work! I know our dogs are part of our families, and I also know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for them. I would want you to have that same peace of mind knowing your dog is being loved and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is something I genuinely love, and I’m fortunate to be able to dedicate myself to it full time! My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give the pets in my care my full attention. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I want every owner to feel confident that their furry family member is getting the same love, attention, and care they would receive at home. I absolutely love spending time with animals! One thing I’ve learned over the years is that every pet has a personality of their own, and I seem to have a natural instinct for understanding what makes them happy. Some dogs love playing fetch, chasing a Frisbee, or being challenged to learn new tricks. Others love swimming in our lake, which is something we can enjoy together with their owner’s permission and proper supervision. And if they don’t like water, that’s perfectly fine! We can go for walks, play their favorite games, or find something else they enjoy. Then there are those who would rather just relax, cuddle, have their belly rubbed, or curl up in their doggie bed with someone nearby. I love that just as much! I believe the best way to care for animals is to pay attention to their individual personalities, respect their routines, and let them enjoy the things that make them happy. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, a senior dog, or a cat who prefers a little independence, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. After all, they’re part of the family!

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.
96% of sitters in Vernon 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 Vernon 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 Vernon.
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 Vernon. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Vernon 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.
