“Chris was great!! He had no problem showing us where Daisy would be staying, sent us updates and pictures. Daisy was very happy when she came home, with other sitters/kennels she would be sad for 2-3 days. Will definitely be using again!!”
“Phyllis was so great with Diesel who is a blind husky, send photo to show how good he is doing. And we can tell Diesel was very happy at her place. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Rubal was amazing! She stayed in contact with us for the entire 5 days we were out of town and sent hundreds of photos and videos of our boys! We couldn’t trust anyone more with our precious pups and will absolutely use her again!”
“I love Samantha. So does my puppy. What’s not to love? We have had her sit Elvis a few times now and are always so happy about his stay! She sends photos and updated often - and replies fast. Laika (her dog) is Elvis’s new bestie!!! Samantha even bought Elvis more food because he ran out before we even had time to panic!!! She is amazing.”
“Sheila was wonderful! I needed someone very last minute and she responded right away and that’s how communication was the entire time we were gone! She sent pictures/videos and updates to let me know Binx was doing okay! My pup was loved on and treated like family during her stay!”
About: I grew up with pets, and love being around pups! I don’t have any of my own and for that reason, getting to take care of your pup is a true joy for me. I love hearing even the smallest details about your beloved pet so that I can give them as much care as you do! I’m a stay-at-home mom with daily availability to make house visits or go on walks. My teen sons also enjoy pet sitting/ dog walking and may accompany me at times. I strive to give them the same love and care you do! I am a detailed oriented person who you can be confident will attempt to hear and follow all of your instructions, making sure your pet is in good hands! Pet parents know all the individual qualities about their pet— what they like to do, what scares them, what will help them get in and out of the house, etc. Those are the things I appreciate knowing.
“I can’t understate how much Theo loves staying with Leta and her wonderful family. He perks up every time we get to their home and jumps out of his skin when he sees her. Plenty of play time & stimulation with their fur babies, fun places to climb and explore, lots of love. He has stayed twice and I will always look to them first. Fully recommend!”
“My pup was very loved and pampered while staying with Jennifer. She took her for walks, made sure she was eating and always had water, let her outside to play, even turned on my dog's favorite TV show when she was bored. I will absolutely be booking Jennifer again soon! Thanks!”
“When we picked up Shadow from her stay, she came back to us exactly how we left her—happy, healthy, and full of energy. All her needs were taken care of, from mealtime and naps to plenty of playtime in the backyard, which made us feel really at ease knowing she was so well looked after.”
“Jacklyn was amazing! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She has a beautiful, fully fenced backyard where our pup was able to play. Thank you!!”
“I could not be more grateful for the attention, care and acceptance on the same day as Earlie; she is a loving and dedicated person, she was our angel with Sharow. Excellent service and kept me in the loop, Zeus enjoyed sharing while we were on the road, we had issues with the app but she was very accessible. thank you!!”
“I had such a great experience with Deborah and Jeff! They took wonderful care of Maverick while we were away for over a week, and it was such a relief knowing he was in good hands. They were kind, attentive, and easy to communicate with, and it was clear Maverick was well cared for and loved during his stay. We really appreciated the peace of mind they gave us and would absolutely trust them with Maverick again. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you for being so flexible when the airlines put us in a bind! I love that he was loving on you as much as me when I picked him up! What a great sign of his enjoyment all week! Thank you!!”
“Dayana took excellent care of my dog. Her dog and mine had a great time, and when my dog came home he was so worn out from all the playtime, he could barely keep his eyes open.”
“Wrigley always enjoys his time with Nancy. We enjoy the pics and videos that Nancy shares while we are away from our pup. We always know that Wrigley is in good hands with Nancy and we don't have to worry about him!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Ginger’s first stay with Alyson! She was incredibly flexible with scheduling a meet-and-greet and getting Ginger booked for the same week, which we really appreciated. Alyson has a fenced-in backyard where Ginger had plenty of room to roam and explore, and she was welcome to enjoy the furniture and feel right at home. Alyson’s two children were wonderful with Ginger and loved helping care for her, including taking her on walks with parental supervision. I especially loved receiving all the photos throughout her stay and being able to check in and see how Ginger was doing. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for! Ginger made some wonderful new friends, and she can’t wait to go back and visit them again! If you’re looking for a Rover sitter in the area, I highly recommend Alyson. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! 🐾❤️”
“Leokadia took very good care of my love! He instantly gravitate to the household which was a great sign from the initial meeting! They definitely have a new customer, if they are willing to accept my boy again!”
“Precious and Thomas took amazing care of my dog, Enzo while I was out of town. They were extremely welcoming during the meet and greet, I was sent updates daily with pictures and videos attached, and I knew Enzo was in great hands! Highly highly recommended for your dog watching needs, I will definitely be using them again!”
“Julie was great she was just excellent. She sent me videos and pictures. She kept me updated on everything that was going on with my dog. I felt very comfortable with her. There were no problems, no issues. She treated gizmo as if he were her own, and that's exactly what I wanted. I would definitely use her again without hesitation and recommend her very highly.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 760 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Westland. 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.
97% of sitters in Westland 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 Westland 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 Westland.
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 Westland. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Westland 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 IN 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.
