“Katherine was great with our pup Sunny. She came home tired and worn out. I got pictures and updates regularly and she was quick to respond. Easy to communicate with about drop off and pick up! Would recommend!”

“Ru kept our Molly girl while we travelled to Alaska. It is always hard leaving her, especially so far away, but Ru kept us informed the whole time with daily updates and photos. The peace of mind allowed us not to worry and enjoy our vacation. Thank you, Ru, for caring for our girl.”
“Wow, Marissa is the best. We got photos frequently and reports of how our furry friend was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with our crazy work schedules. Best sitter ever!”
“I am a repeat customer. Kalee is an absolute GEM! Our first time with Kalee, she was very professional. She offered a meet and greet then once we arrived she spent additional rime with Buster and I just reviewing his care and allowed Bust we to explore and get used to his surroundings. I have decided that Kalee is our one and only sitter, Buster loves her and his new fur baby brother! I definitely recommend Kalee as a professional, caring and flexible sitter!”
“I am completely at ease when we leave our german shorthair pointer with this family. We get plenty of updates and it looks like Daisy gets plenty of playtime with their pet and plenty of attention from the humans. The second time we brought her there she ran right up to the house like she remembered the good memories she made there the last time.”
“Teri was very nice and treated my dog as if she was her own. I felt very comfortable meeting her in person and I could tell my dog enjoyed her stay with her. Would definitely book with her again.”
“Melvin was so kind and took great care of our sweet girl, Mabel. He took her over 4th of July weekend and she can be a little anxious with fireworks, and there were absoloutely no issues. He had a plan to keep the pup as comfortable as possible! You can really tell that he knows what he’s doing, and loves it too!”
“Marley had an awesome time! Seemed comfortable and enjoyed her stay. Dan took great care of her and kept me updated with videos and photos. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Piper had a wonderful time with Jenn. I loved all the pictures she sent showing the great care that she was getting. There are wonderful communication while we were away. I had no worries about the care Piper was receiving. We will definitely book with Jenn in the future.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Jacob and his wife! Niko stayed with them while we were away, and we couldn’t be happier with the care he received. They sent regular updates and adorable pictures that gave us so much peace of mind. Niko really enjoyed being with their dogs too. Not only was Niko clearly happy and well cared for, but he also came back walking better on the leash—an unexpected and much-appreciated bonus! It’s clear they truly cares about the dogs they looks after. We’d absolutely trust him with Niko again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and thoughtful sitter.”

“Great communication, gave a good recap of how my dog did and paid attention to his anxiety and how he didn’t seem to tolerate the heat despite walking later in the day, and cut a walk short because she was concerned by his panting.”
“Blue had a great time with Dale and his dogs. His communication with us was great from the start, sending updates everyday of his stay. Made us feel comfortable from the first meet and greet. Will be booking with him again!”

Alexis took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we were gone for a week on vacation. We were a little nervous leaving them with someone new, knowing we were traveling out of the country. She communicated promptly to my inquiries and sent us numerous photos and text updates throughout the week. We were thrilled to hear that our dogs got along great with her dog and had a fun week playing together. Thank you Alexis! We will be sure to reach out for any future vacation needs!
Kirstin and Cassie were AMAZING with Duckie! he loved hanging out with them and felt super comfortable right away at our meet and greet. they were so accommodating in bringing him to our other sitter we had lined up for the rest of the time we were away. we would highly recommend Kristin, and will definitely be ask her in the future to watch our Duckie again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Walker on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 526 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Walker. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Walker sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Walker landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Walker 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 Walker.
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.
You and your Walker 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.
