“Marija did a fabulous job with my senior dog! My dog was there for 1 1/2 weeks and she got to know her very well. Meds were given and she paid close attention to her special needs. Received many awesome photos and videos which put our minds at ease that she was happy and having a good time. Would highly recommend”
“My dog seemed to have a great time staying with Mina. She likes to be out in the sun and got to spend a lot of time in the fenced backyard. Mina sent many pics and video so I never had to worry about what my dog was up to. Very pleased and would not hesitate to use her as a sitter again.”

“Holly is an amazing woman. She welcomed Oliver into her home so warmly and lovingly. He is a little nervous around new people. She immediately made him feel comfortable. Within minutes he acted like he lived there! He was curious and very happy exploring. He was so peaceful snuggling with her and Lisa. I was confident he would be well cared for. Holly sent me regular pictures and updates which we really appreciated and enjoyed. I highly recommend her and will definitely ask her to watch him in the future.”

I can tell from the photos Spooky became quite comfortable with Zachary and in his house. I would definitely request Zachary watch Spooky again.”

Another great experience with Rebecca! As a second-time customer, it was clear that Kinzie was at ease when we arrived, recognized the surroundings, and barely noticed as I was heading out the door. As usual, I received regular updates and photos during the time away. We will be booking with you again!
Rebecca, you did a great job with Kinzie and I can tell she was very well cared for (she told me!) We'll be repeat customers, you can count on it. Thanks for keeping me posted during her stay with pics & message updates. It put my mind at ease so that I could fully engage in my out-of-town travel. Until next time !

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Whitmore Lake on Rover is $53.28 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,420 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Whitmore Lake. 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.
96% of Whitmore Lake 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 Whitmore Lake 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 Whitmore Lake 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 Whitmore Lake.
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 Whitmore Lake 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.
