“Tory was fantastic. She provided daily updates. She took on our dog last minute. Clean, safe beautiful space. She responds almost immediately to messages. Absolutely fantastic.”

“Katie was incredible. She showed Rue an immense amount of love, provided lots of updates, and has an excellent environment to allow Rue to relax and enjoy her time away. I couldn't recommend her more!! She's the best.”

“She is amazing!! Other boarders would send us maybe one pic a day. We got a load of pics three times a day. She had everything only thing we had to bring was food and the pup. She understands animals and their behaviors. Would recommend her to EVERYONE!!”

“Ilona watched our dog at her house for a week. We are extremely happy with the care and love she and her family provided our pup and highly recommend her if you are looking for a dog sitter. I felt like they treated him like he was a member of their family and gave him so much love and attention. Ilona sent lots of pictures and videos and asked a few questions when she wasn’t sure of Jimmy’s routine. Jimmy came home happy and relaxed and knowing a few new tricks! Thank you guys so much!!!”

“Bailey loved his stay with Valentina. He has a new friend, her dog Oliver. She is very attentive with daily walks and play at the dog park. Appreciated the pics and communication throughout his stay. I highly recommend Valentina as a awesome Dogsitter!”

“Sarah was a great host for our dogs while we went away for 2 weeks. She helped coronate an initial meet and greet to make sure the dogs got along and we were comfortable leaving them. She was also incredibly responsive to all texts leading up to our stay and during, as well as keeping us updated with pictures the entire time. She let our boys make themselves at home, which we really appreciated. 10/10 stay, would use her and family as a host again! Thanks so much!”

“Shane took very good care of my dog over the weekend. She sent tons of pictures. Even though my dog didn’t get along with her dog initially, she did everything she can to keep both of them happy and busy. Will definitely come back and recommend.”

“What an amazing host family! Tanuja took all the appropriate steps to make me and spice feel welcome and comfortable with this being a first time host. We had a meet and greet so both dogs could get comfortable with each other and after that moved towards hosting. She kept me well informed and was very thorough with making sure she had everything to care for spice. I would definitely book again with her in the future and would recommend her to anyone who asked.”

About: Your Pet’s New Favorite Sitter! 🐾❤️ Hi! I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable pet lover who would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members! As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else. You want someone you can trust—not only to make sure they’re fed and cared for, but to give them the same love, attention, and patience they receive at home. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a potty break, some playtime, dinner and cuddles, or simply a little company while you’re away, I’m here to help! I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m especially passionate about giving pets lots of attention and making sure they never feel overlooked. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. 🐶🐱📸 A little about my care: 🐾 Reliable and responsible ❤️ Patient and genuinely animal-loving 🚶♀️ Happy to provide walks and exercise 🍽️ Feeding, fresh water, potty breaks & routine care 🎾 Playtime, attention and plenty of affection 📸 Regular updates and pictures 🏡 Respectful of your instructions My goal is for your pets to feel like they’re getting a little vacation of their own while you’re away! I’ll treat them like family and do everything I can to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pets. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family members! 🐾 I do work, but my hours are short, so we have plenty of time for your dog! We also have two very friendly and wonderful dogs of our own, a Golden Retriever named Buddy and a German Pointer named Rusty. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs of our own to keep your baby company. Your dogs will be well taken care of and well loved! It is important that your dog is crate trained for during my working hours; however, summer months are different.
“We were so excited to book Cynthia for the long Thanksgiving weekend while we went out of town to see family! We have booked Cynthia multiple times and trust her completely with our pup Sonny! She takes great care to create a warm, interactive, and safe environment and to incorporate Sonny’s normal routine into her space. We love receiving daily updates from Cynthia with the best photos to make us feel assured during our time away. She truly is a Star Sitter! ❤️🐕🐾”

About: I have over 6 years of experience working in kennels caring for both dogs and cats of all ages. Along with several family friends and people in my community that I have sat for many many times. I have special training in providing medications in any form (Pills, ear/eye drops, topical medications, insulin injections, etc) and training/experience working with dogs of all temperaments (anxious, aggressive, energetic, reactive, etc.) I have a true passion and love for working with cat and dogs but am at not a point in my life where I can get on of my own, so I would love nothing more to spend some time with your fur baby! I am currently finishing up at school at Michigan State University but am commuting from my hometown for this semester. Fortunately I only have to be up in East Lansing for a couple of hours 2 days a week, and I am investing the rest of my time into my online classes. This has left my schedule pretty open for the upcoming months and I will be spending majority of my time with your pet during their stay! For those interested in boarding, I do live with my parents and a sibling, but they all love to have furry visitors and your pet is guaranteed to get an abundance of attention! When I care for someone else's pet I truly treat them as my own. I have great relationship with all of the clients I currently sit for and their pets. My main goal when sitting is to make sure that both the owner and the pet are entirely comfortable while they are in my care. To do this I try to create a very open line of communication and send frequent updates and pictures and make sure to ask questions rather than guessing how to care for someone else's pet.
“I had an amazing experience with Kadi! She was incredibly friendly, reliable, and showed so much love to my dog. Her communication was great and she sent regular photo updates which we loved. My dog came home happy and ready for a nap. I would refer her to anyone!”

“Catherine took great care of our two active labs. Her yard is great and she took them to the dog park and filled up the pool during hot days. Great place to board your babies”

“Took Shadow to Kathy for a couple of daycare visits prior to leaving him for a week. Shadow got along fine with Kathy and her husband. After those initial daycare visits, I knew she was the right person to take care of my furkid while I was on vacation. Shadow stayed with Kathy for 7 days, she sent pics, videos and narrative updates daily. He was happy as a clam in her care and I highly recommend Kathy!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care she gave my Lola! Lindsay took her on regular walks, made sure she was comfortable and happy, and kept me updated the entire time with messages and photos. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Lola was in such loving and responsible hands. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely trust Lindsay with Lola again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”

“Mayrannie was great with my dog and took great care of my boy. She sent me pictures every day so my kids and I, we could see how he was doing. She was also very accommodating with drop off and pick up times.”

“Great pet sitters! Jin and Brian, along with their sweet kids, took amazing care of my cat. They kept me updated with photos every day, played with him, and made sure his food and all of his conditions were perfect. They truly went above and beyond to make sure he had the best possible experience. This was my cat’s first time being around another cat since he was a few months old, so I was nervous at first since they already have a cat. But they handled everything so well — my cat was never scared and felt comfortable right away. I truly appreciated their care and attention. I definitely recommend them!”

“Katrina is THE BEST! My Coco was taken care of so well! I received videos and pics everyday from her while I was on vacation and that made me very happy and comforted. Katrina deserves five stars! Thank you for all of your hard work. Definitely will recommend Katrina to anyone who wants their fur baby pampered and loved.”

“Janelle was phenomenal with my dog Roxy. She sent the cutest photos, took great care with my dog’s special quirks, and even helped when my dog had a skin problem. She is a strong communicator and treated my pup as her own. I will rebook in an instant. Cannot recommend her enough! Her space is clean and cozy and her neighborhood is full of nature to explore”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Yates
Tory watched my senior dog over my wedding weekend and I can truly say I did not have to worry about him at all. I felt so at peace dropping him off and receiving updates throughout the weekend of him safe and comfortable. He takes a few medicines and Tory did a great job administering them when needed. Highly recommend Tory, it was my first time using Rover and I am so happy I did!

Andrea took very good care of my dog Sadie. Treated Sadie like she was her own fur baby. Sent photos every day to show how happy Sadie was and how things were going. I would definitely recommend Andrea as a pet sitter for your fur baby. I plan to use her again in the near future.

If we could give Mary 6 stars, we would! Our dog truly looked like she was living her best life at Mary’s house. She sent so many fun pictures and updates throughout the weekend, putting our mind at ease. She even took our girl on multiple walks to get her energy out and she came home soooo happy! So glad we found Mary, she is incredible!

Kathryn did an amazing job watching my dog! She was a great communicator throughout the entire process and was very attentive to the needs of my pet. I will definitely be going with her for dog sitting in the future and would strongly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Yates home-away-from-home, 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 Yates.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Yates 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 , 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 .
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.
