“Kara and Steven took great care of Wally while we were away for Christmas. They sent daily updates and photos which was much appreciated. Wally seemed comfortable and happy, and had a wonderful time on all of his walks!”
“Sadie had a fantastic stay with Chris. Chris was super responsive and flexible with making the last-minute booking. Will definitely have Chris watch Sadie in the future!!”
“JoAnn did a great job of caring for Tico, while we were on an extended vacation. She set pictures every day, always knew when Tico had his daily walks. She also ensured that Tico’s nail recovered from its injury. I highly recommend JoAnn.”
“Winston always has a great time with Teresa! Teresa takes great care of him and makes sure he’s always happy! We are able to enjoy time away knowing that Winston is in great hands! I would highly recommend Teresa to anyone!”
About: I have taken care of family dogs since I was old enough to remember. I grew up with 2 shih tzu's at home, and they were my fiercest protectors. I have taken care of both senior dogs and puppies. I love caring for dogs (every size and breed!). I know how hard it is to leave your best friend behind, which is why my goal is to give you total peace of mind. Whether we’re out for a long walk or curled up on the couch, I promise to treat your pup with the same love and devotion I would give my own. You can enjoy your time away knowing they aren't just being watched—they’re being pampered, played with, and truly cared for. I’m currently working full-time (9 am-5 pm) Monday-Friday, so I would be perfect for a weekend or long weekend coverage. I am available Fridays after 4:30, and typically all day on Saturdays and Sundays. I am also open to staying during the weekdays as long as your pet does not need to be taken out in the middle of the day. I can have pets in my apartment so I am available for boarding! And, I would be more than happy to do home-stays or quick drop-ins for walks and feeding!
“Jane was fabulous! I came from out of town with my puppy who ended up giving her some trouble having separation anxiety and Jane was able to get her comfortable and make her feel at home. I know my pup got lots of play time because she slept our whole 2.5 hour car ride home :) She kept communication with me and gave picture updates. Definitely recommend!”
“Donta took great care for Zoe. He gave her the exercise she needed and kept her happy and healthy. He has a great positive attitude even with dogs that are hyperactive / high energy. I recommend him to take care of your pup.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Suraj! He took amazing care of my dog, Vito, while I was away. He sent me daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Vito was happy, well cared for, and comfortable. I truly felt at ease knowing my fur baby was in such good hands. I highly recommend Suraj to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter—and I’ll definitely be using him again!”
“Reneé was great with Lily for a short overnight stay! She took lots of cute photos of her. She even squeezed in a quick walk before our pickup time. Lily will be back!”
“Jagoda went above and beyond for my boy Miles. She took him to the dog park and on long walks and even gave him a few extra toys to keep him entertained. She was immaculate with her communication skills and updates and honestly it seemed like Miles wanted to stay longer! I would definitely rest easy knowing Jagoda is taking care of your furry friend. Will definitely will be booking again soon!”
“Ginsberg had a great time while we were gone. Teresa made her a part of the family letting her warm up at her own pace. She loved hanging out in the huge backyard with friends and lounging on the couch watching household activities and sleeping. Highly recommend Teresa. She’s sent lots of pictures and updates so I could see Ginsberg was happy and relaxed.”
About: I freaking LOVE dogs. And they love me! I’m very patient, playful, caring and alert. We love having fun together— we both get the zoomies! Dogs tend to listen to and respect me easily. I help them to feel safe by making boundaries clear. I have a lot of experience noticing any indicators if something is off, administering meds, and continuing their existing training. I just love being their buddy! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. Having a chance to take a walk or spend time with a pet is a great chance for me to clear my mind and get outside. I try to stick a schedule that a pet is accustomed to whenever possible. I get to know their personality and see how I can help them have a good time, and feel safe and comfortable when we’re together. I’m very attentive to their behavior and mood.
“Oscar took great care of Frankie and was an excellent and fast communicator from pre-booking through our entire stay. Will definitely yes Oscar whenever we go out of town. She was in such good hands and we loved the daily pics/videos”
“Dia was great with our pup, from the time we connected for a meet and greet we felt comfortable. Dia provided great communication and photos throughout our dog's stay. We certainly will entrust her with our fur baby again!”
“Tanu was fantastic with our dog Daisy! She sent updates every day and kept Daisy comfortable and happy throughout her stay. Tanu took Daisy on walks every day and let us know how she was doing with food and water and the weather. We were so impressed and happy that Tanu was able to put our minds at ease and care for our pup in the same way we would. Great experience, we would love to work with Tanu again!”
“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of our dog while we were away for a weekend. She was very attentive, sweet, responsive, and provided daily updates. We will definitely have her watch our dog in the future!”
About: I have been a pet owner since 2010 but an animal lover my whole life. I am also a mom so I can handle pretty much anything and I have a flexible schedule. I currently work a remote part-time job so I am very flexible during the work day and at times after work and on weekends. I have my own car. I have a fully fenced yard at my house and my dog Clementine loves all animals! I am also interested in walking dogs or caring for dogs in other people's homes during the work day.
“Thank you Karen for taking such great care of Rufus. He seemed like he had a great vacation weekend with you and we really do appreciate it! We hope Rufus was able to entertain you as well! We would be happy to leave him with you again in the future, should the need arise.”

This was our third booking with Kelsey, and at this point I’m pretty sure Charlie has a second family 😂 The second he hopped out of the car, he walked straight up to the door like, “Dad, you can leave now… I know these people.” Clearly, Kelsey’s house is officially his home away from home! Kelsey is always great with communication and keeps me updated with photos and all of Charlie’s daily happenings, which I really appreciate while I’m away. Charlie absolutely loves her and her family, and it’s so nice knowing he’s somewhere he feels completely comfortable and happy. They even sent Charlie home with a handmade gift with his name on it 🥹🐾 Seriously, how sweet is that?! If you need a reliable, dependable, and genuinely caring dog sitter, definitely book Kelsey! Just be warned… your dog may start thinking they have a second home 😂❤️
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet 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.

There are 1,350 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ypsilanti. About 93% of Ypsilanti sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
