“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.”
“Ashley was wonderful while watching my very energetic mini poodle!! She sent great updates and photos while I was out of town. My boy clearly felt right at home and I’ll definitely plan on working with Ashley again!”
“Andrew and his partner took excellent care of our dog and were very playful with him. Very quick on their responses, easy communication, and responsible. I definitely recommend!”
“We had an absolutely great experience leaving our dog with Darcy and Dan for a full week. From the start, they were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and easy to communicate with, which immediately put us at ease. They sent us daily updates and photos, which we really appreciated, and it was clear our dog was happy and well cared for. Even with cold weather, they made the effort to play with her and keep her energy levels in check. When it got too cold outside, they were thoughtful and flexible, making adjustments to ensure she was still comfortable and getting the attention she needed. Their yard is a great size—good for a high-energy dog—and it was obvious they genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs they care for. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would absolutely trust them again in the future. We highly recommend Darcy and Dan to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitters!”
“Wiley boarded for 5 days, had a great time. Being with other dogs was great. We’re very happy with his care and his stay. Definitely recommend and definitely will book again.”
“Rachel and her partner Michael were super patient with our anxious pup on his first boarding experience with non-family. Rachel sent helpful updates and pics that set our whole family at ease. And our pup had his first upclose encounter with cats - and it went well! Rachel was also accomodating with some last-minute changes - thank you! Would definitely recommend and look forward to our pup's next stay with Rachel.”
“Christopher and Brady were great sitters for our dog! They were very communicative and sent lots of pictures. They seemed to really care for our dog too which made us comfortable while we were away.”
“Good communication with timely responses. Took care of my Great Dane for 5 nights. Quick and easy drop off and pickup. Thank you for taking care of my fur baby while I was away.”
“Elizabeth and Brian were vey attentive and interested in learning my dog, Sky's, care needs prior to her stay. Sky stayed one night to make sure this was a good match before she stays longer during a summer vacation. Sky was seemed happy at pick up and was her normal self when she returned home other than being a little more tired from playing which is not a bad thing. I feel confident having Sky return later this summer for a longer stay.”
“Ariana took amazing care of Murphy for us. As a senior dog he has his quirks and Ariana worked to make sure he was happy and content. Lots of communication that made us feel at ease knowing Murphy was well cared for. We highly recommend Ariana to watch your fur baby.”
“Kelsey and her family were absolutely amazing while caring for Charlie during my recent work trip! ❤️ From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in great hands. Kelsey kept me updated throughout my trip with messages and lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious Charlie was having a great time and was treated like part of their family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. As a flight attendant, being away from home can be stressful, so knowing Charlie was safe and cared for meant the world to me. Thank you, Kelsey, for taking such wonderful care of my little guy! I truly appreciate everything you and your family did for him. I would absolutely recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and communicative sitter. I won’t hesitate to book with her again in the future!”
“Erin and her husband took such good care of my girl while I was away. They were accommodating to her needs and sent me regular updates. I'm typically nervous about boarding, but after this experience I have complete faith in Erin and we will be repeat customers. They are also just lovely, warm people 💖”
“Shashank was great with Smokey, and his dog Chicoo (the same age as Smokey) was such a sweet and friendly companion! I received lots of pictures and updates, which made me feel very happy about choosing Shashank and Chicoo to care for Smokey while I was away.”
“I get the sense that all the dogs in Eric’s care are buddies. From the looks of it, they are active and playful together. Eric handles my big dog with ease, and I feel good knowing he’s busy and well cared for.”
“This is Bowi's second time staying with Logann and this time she stayed for almost 1 month. Logann was amazing with her Bowi really enjoyed her stay she had a wonderful time with Logann and her Family. Thank you so much Logann for everything you did I really Appreciate it .”
“Anya and Tye took great care of my dog Pippa while we were away on vacation. The pics/videos were nice and seeing her running around with their dog in a park nearby was reassuring. Definitely will use them in the future and recommend them to family/friends!”
“I have 12-year old small mixed breed named Bella. We met when she was 7. Since then she has only stayed with my family members, never a stranger, when I leave home without her. So, I was nervous about leaving her with anyone else. I need not have worried! Bella seemed to do just fine with Kara and Steven, and they sent me lots of pictures so that I could rest easy. I would never hesitate to have her stay with them again :)”
“Jagoda is great with our dog! We are repeat clients and our pupper ran to meet her when we dropped her off. Jagoda is communicative and keeps our doggo so happy. We highly recommend her!”

We had scheduled a one-night stay to help Daisy get some time with Christopher prior to a longer stay in the future. We had to delay the stay for a week. Christopher was very easy to work with and accommodating in adjusting the schedule. Daisy came back for the overnight acting very happy and from all information and appearances it went very well. We feel very comfortable leaving Daisy for a longer stay in the future.
Suraj and his family took excellent care of our senior Shih Tzus on two separate occasions. We received lots of photos and videos, which was nice to know they were being well cared for. Suraj was very accommodating on a short notice request and with regards to drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend!
While looking for care for my "special needs" pup, I found Laura and Manuel and couldn't be happier that I did! My dog felt almost immediately comfortable during our meet and greet, running around the yard and getting along well with their dogs. Laura was extremely patient with me while I explained my dogs medicine regimen and my concerns. During the stay, I was kept updated with texts and pics and best of all, my dog had a GREAT time! I feel totally comfortable that he is in good hands while hes there and will definitely be rebooking in the future.
Daniel and Terry took such wonderful care of our furbaby Archie while we were away. From the moment we met them, they made us feel comfortable and reassured that Archie would be in loving, capable hands. They were kind, communicative, attentive, and clearly genuine animal lovers. Archie came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We really appreciated the updates, flexibility, and the warm environment they provided for him during his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being treated like part of the family instead of “just a pet.” We would absolutely trust Daniel and Terry again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, dependable pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such great care of our sweet boy, Archie! 💗
Jane is extremely trustworthy and reliable. She's watched our dog a few times, but this time he unexpectedly had separation anxiety and a lot of GI issues. She told us exactly what was going on, took him to the vet, put us on speaker phone during the appointment, and communicated with us every time he took medication. I really can't speak highly enough about how well she handled what must have been a challenging week.
Amy and Ray were absolutely wonderful and truly saved our vacation! They stepped in last minute after another sitter canceled and took amazing care of our high-energy girl, Kora. They were attentive, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making her feel safe and comfortable. When a noise scared her, they even built her a little “fort” to help her settle down — which meant so much to us knowing she was being cared for with that level of kindness. We’re incredibly grateful they stepped in on short notice and treated Kora like their own. Highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Ypsilanti
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ypsilanti on Rover is $44.4 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 1,316 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ypsilanti. 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 Ypsilanti 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 Ypsilanti 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 Ypsilanti 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 Ypsilanti.
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 Ypsilanti 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.
