“Día is fantastic! Ellie, my senior dog, looked so happy with her. She sent a lot of pictures during the day. Ellie stayed with Dia for 15 days and I couldn’t be happier with the way Dia took care of Ellie. Highly recommended.”
“Kimberly and Charles were the sweetest! Our dog Bobi was a little nervous at the beginning and I was worried he wouldn’t adapt well, but by the second day he became comfortable with them and you can just tell that they’re the kind of people animals feel safe to gravitate towards. Without a doubt I would leave Bobi in their care again!”
“Dena was fantastic! Potter had the best time with her and her family. He played hard and was so well loved during his entire stay. Dena also did a great job with updates and photos which we appreciated so much, as it allowed us to get a glimpse into the amazing time potter was having. I couldn’t recommend her and her family enough! THANKS DENA!”
“She’s absolutely wonderful with Rex! Knowing he’s happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her home makes being away so much easier. Her genuine love for dogs really shows, and we couldn’t be happier to have found her. Highly recommend!”
“Terri was great with my pups. They had a fun time with her and were safe and well taken care of. She was also helpful and flexible when my flight changed. Thanks so much!”
About: I got my first dog when I was in 12. Her name was Egypt and she was a red nose pit and at the time i didn’t know much about dogs but the love i grew for her and caring for her was so deep. She needed me for everyday survival but I learned I needed her much more than she needed me. I feel that way about all animals and I will treat your pet as if they are Egypt. I have dog sat friends/family pets before as well, i walked, fed, bathed, their/my pets as well as cleaning their enclosures and dealing with doggie periods. I also have cared for a hamster and bearded dragon before so I have experience will pets other than cats or dogs! I’m currently working 11-7pm shifts with Wednesday and Sundays off, so I am free before 11, after 7 and all day on the days I do not have work! I’d like to fit in pet care as much as I can! I often do drop-ins/walks on my lunch break so that is always an option as well! Just message me :) I currently live at an apartment and would prefer to care for your pets in your home however, I do offer boarding as well. I have no problem cleaning up and refreshing the food bowls and litter boxes. Also making sure there are no paw prints on the floor if it’s wet or muddy outside. I love cleaning so also just cleaning up after myself or your pet if an accident occurs.
“Andrew was a great choice to care for Toby. We went on a two-week international adventure, where cell reception would be spotty. It was good to know that Toby would be with very responsible sitters, given that we could not be in touch all the time. Thank you for peace of mind.”
“Chris and Cass were awesome sitters! They are really kind, cool people who love dogs. My Sammy had a blast staying at their place and I know he loved it. I actually felt bad taking him back home because he was having so much fun :) My pup Sammy is a pretty nervous and anxious dude around strangers, but not Chris and Cass. He loved them both and I’m so happy to have met them.”
“Our lab husky was with Holland for almost 3 weeks while we were on an international trip. She was great with communication. Our dog was safe and happy when we got him back :)”
“I can’t begin to express the love my Romeo and I have for Jailyn! My pup had to do an extended stay since we’re moving and she took care of my baby as if he was her own!! Always keeping me updated with texts and photos! She will always be his sitter!”
“Megan did a great job taking care of my baby while I was gone on a vacation for the long weekend. I received daily updates, pictures and videos of my dog playing with her puppy. She also bathed him and kept him in comfort during the Father’s Day fireworks. I am beyond impressed, thankful and appreciative to her love towards the fur babies!!”
“Omg! Laura is the best! She is so great with dogs, keeps them safe and happy and sends you lots of pictures! It’s so much easier to enjoy time away when you know your pup is so well cared for. Thank you Laura!♥️🐶♥️”
“I was lucky enough to find a small window of availability in Leslie's busy pup-watching schedule and I'm so glad I did. I felt comfortable and confident with her proven skill sets and abilities of caring for our older chocolate lab. She sent pictures thoughout our time away and was incredibly communicative. Thanks so much, Leslie! We'll be back!”
“Glad to have found Mark and Nadine to watch out Corgi while we are away for a week. They were good about communicating on our overnight test run and made sure our dog felt comfortable around the other dogs they watch. After the trial run I feel more comfortable leaving her with them for the week as I am sure they will provide updates and take good care of our dog!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wayne
Jennifer was absolutely amazing with Apollo. She even slept in the guest room with him so he would feel fully comfortable and have all the cuddles he needed. She took excellent care of him and sent lots of photos of him having a great time on nice walks, playing tug, and getting cuddles. I fully trusted that she would take care of him not just physically but emotionally too. She’s incredible.
Grace took good care of my dog who is a real mommies boy. I always look for a sitter who provides a safe and welcoming environment. Finn had fun running around her large enclosed yard and enjoyed the company of her own dog Woody. We will definitely book future stays.
Rodney took great care of Ozzy over the 4th of July weekend! Ozzy came home completely tuckered out after having a great time playing with another dog Rodney was watching. It’s clear that Rodney genuinely cares about Ozzy, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in his care. I’d definitely book with Rodney again!
Kayla and her family were extremely accommodating for my dog, Sadie. We initially set up a meet-and-greet with her dogs, who were incredibly friendly with her. Sadie and the rest of the pups had plenty of room to run around their fenced backyard, with Kayla always keeping a watchful eye on them. She was also kind enough to accept a last minute request to watch Sadie for an additional day. Overall, I’m extremely grateful to Kayla and her family for taking care of Sadie. I’m hoping we can come back and ask for her services again!
Kelly was extremely responsive and very caring to our special two-year-old Golden boy. He loved Kelly’s huge fenced-in yard and he felt so happy and cozy hanging out with Kelly at home! We are so grateful to have met Kelly and to be able to rely on her for the utmost care of Romeo!
Teddy just finished his stay with Jasmine, and I couldn't be happier. She was attentive, followed all his care instructions, and kept me updated. Teddy came home happy and relaxed. It’s a huge relief to find someone so trustworthy to watch him!I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Renate watched our moderately hyper golden doodle with ease. She was so awesome the times she sat him before- when we relocated out of state- I brought him back to MI knowing he would be in good hands during our visit. This time she also sat our really particular yorkipoo who is a stage 5 clinger and has separation anxiety. She keeps you updated constantly, is accommodating, predicts your needs during busy travel (eg asked if she should give both their anxiety rx the am of pickup knowing we had travel same day), and clearly has passion for sitting! Drop off and pickup is a breeze. Home is clean and never smells like “dogs.”Her two dogs are very sweet and seem laid back. Whole family really is sweet. See you on our next trip home to MI Renate!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Wayne is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $67 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,595 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wayne. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Wayne 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 Wayne 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 Wayne.
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 Wayne. On Rover:
- 92% 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 Wayne 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.
