“This was Pac's first time with a sitter that wasn't a family member or a friend. I am extremely pleased with the care that was given to my fur baby. Would absolutely use their services again and recommend that you do the same 😊”
“Terry and his wife cared for our Winnie for four days. They kept us updated with texts and pictures, and Winnie seemed very happy and content. I’m sure he loved the attention and, of course, the big back yard to roam about. We would definitely never hesitate to leave Winnie with these nice folks.”
“We were SO pleased with how Erin and Brian took care of Willow! Even with little quirks that Willow had, they were willing to adjust to make her comfortable. We would highly recommend them to watch your fur babies.”
“Christina and her family took such great care of Oliver during our recent extended family vacation. Christina was an excellent communicator and was very flexible with adjusting Oliver’s care instructions when needed during his stay. We are so grateful that Oliver had a place to stay that gave him the same TLC he receives from us at home.”
“Renee was able to board our 2 bulldogs over the 4th holiday on short notice and we are so grateful! She has a fenced backyard, works from home and was able to spend quality time with them so they weren't lonely. They had such big smiles on their faces the whole time. Will definitely come back on our next trip!”
“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.”
“Diana took wonderful care of Kira while I was away! The photos and video updates were amazing and put me at ease that Kira was in great hands for the weekend. I highly recommend Diana for care of your pet, she is incredibly sweet and kind! Thank you again, Diana!”
“Our Golden Retriever, Franklin seemed like he had an awesome time. I can tell Dan and Kelly are both big dog lovers and after Franklins first visit I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!”
“Kijah did a great job taking care of Rocky! She was communicative, caring and sent regular photo updates to let us know he was doing well. It was nice to know he was in good hands!”
“SO so grateful to have found both Jacob and his wife through Rover - I think I suffer from far worse separation anxiety being away from my dog than she does being away from me (?) however, after meeting these two and their own four rescue dogs during a pre-boarding meet and greet, I had absolutely no worries that she would be in great hands. They were both SO kind, communicative, and welcoming. Their genuine compassion and love for dogs was immediately obvious, as was the fact that they both possess thorough knowledge of canine care and behavior. Wrigley even immediately recognized the house when I dropped her off and was so excited for her stay - that and the consistent updates/photos/communication gave me SUCH peace of mind and I will absolutely be reaching out for any future dog sitting needs. Thank you both SO much!!”
“Our experience with Sarah was great! This was our first time using Rover and Sarah was very accommodating. She invited us for a meet and greet before our pup’s stay, was very responsive and offered updates on how he was doing. She made us feel very comfortable and we knew our dog was in great hands.”
“couldn't be happier with the help Melvin and his partner gave us, we were at a bind and they came to the rescue! On top of that our Moka was treated like family and they sent pictures regularly, we will definitely ask for their help later on. 1000% recommended !”
“Jenn was amazing with our pup! This is the longest we have ever left him & I never was worried about him! I missed him for sure but that was helped with updates & pictures from Jenn! I also had so many changes I had to make to my boarding because of not knowing when our flights were going to be exactly & Jenn was so happy to help. My dog also ended up being on a 5 day course of antibiotics & she had no problem giving them to him. She was understanding of the whole situation. She was also very understanding with our pick up time not being set in stone because we were coming from the airport! I will forever recommend her & continue to use her for when we need a sitter!”

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!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Walker on Rover is $36.75 per night (as of August 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 .

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.
91% 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.
