“Burgandy was a great communicator, kept us updated on how Arlo was doing & even sent us pictures. You can tell she loves & cares for animals. This was our first time using Rover & I felt very comfortable leaving Arlo in her care after our meet & greet. I would recommend Burgandy and will book her again when needed.”
“I was trying for 2 weeks to find a boarder for my dog Bandit, cause the hotel said we could bring dogs. So I scrambled and someone I knew said just go on Rover and you should be able to find one. I looked through all of them and met Jesse. I paid and booked. She was so nice before we even met at drop off. Then when I got there with Bandit her and her kids met us and Bandit was a little worried but Jesse made sure to text me and send photos everyday of how much fun he was having! Made me so happy! When we got Bandit back we picked him up and he was so happy to see us and I think he was ready to tackle me from excitement. She again said how good he did and everything, and we'll I can't say enough about the love and care they gave my dog. You can definitely a return visit from us! Thank you again!”
“Sabrina along with her husband and children spoiled chance all weekend. He had a wonderful time playing with their pup. I’ve loved getting all of the pictures and updates daily. I would recommend Sabrina for any of your pet care needs.”
About: I have experience with animals in all settings. I have helped distract puppies when they receive their first shots and I have helped dogs who get laser therapy. I have helped care for the pets family and friend throughout my entire life. I have always enjoyed helping people but helping pets is so special. I work part time 0.5 mile away from home. I usually work from 12pm- 8pm. Or later in the evening usually between 5pm - 2 am. When I am not home my boyfriend is home most of the day. I live in a safe and quiet apartment, without a fenced in yard. I have an American bulldog mix. I enjoy going for walks and bringing out the best in my favorite fuzzy critters.
“Kim was absolutely wonderful with our beagle. She went above & beyond to make him feel at home. He is naturally nervous & anxious but had zero problems staying at her home. He even got along nicely with her dog. I would definitely recommend Kim as a sitter for your fur baby. We’ll be using her again! A+++ 🌟🌟🌟”
“Alisha was amazing to work with! She took great care of my dog, Ruger, and kept me updated the whole time. I received lots of cute pictures of Ruger and her dog, Bella, playing together. She has a big fenced in backyard which gave Ruger lots of opportunities to get in his exercise and to play with Bella. I highly recommend Alisha to look after your fur baby and I will definitely be taking Ruger to her again if I need a sitter.”
“Ralph was great with our dog summer, she seemed to be at ease with him and the other little dog that was there . If we were in need of a placement in bay city again would use him again”
“She was fantastic with Luna. Jessica sent us tons of pictures and updates about Luna’s day & eating. She also kept Luna playing and happy. Jessica is professional and caring. Would book again.”
“Michelle and her family were GREAT! They treated Bitty really well and provided excellent care. Michelle sent photos and updates of Bitty progress. I am forever greatful for this sight and the perfect recommendations for sitters. I will definitely keep Michelle as our sitter for future references. Michelle is my 1st recommendation for those seeking a pet sitter.”
“AMAZING sitter here! I had to book very last minute for an unplanned trip out of state, and I also had to modify my booking due to my trip taking longer than expected, but Erin was SO accommodating and she did her very best to work with my schedule. I am so grateful to her and on top of it all my sweet Jasmine was very well taken care of. I could tell Jazzy was having a blast meeting lots of new doggy friends and getting tons of playtime. There's no better dog sitter in town!”
“I sent my Bailey girl for the first time today and I am so happy with how her day went! Kelly sent me updates and pictures and kept me informed throughout the day. Very pleased and we will be booking again! Thank you Kelly!”
“Jennifer (and her family) were absolutely amazing with our pup. I whole heartedly would recommend her to anyone. I received many pictures and updates on how he was doing during his stay. He came home loved and happy. Jennifer goes beyond what is expected and I truly believed loved him as his own. Great!! Great!! Great!!!”
“Logan (and Grace) were great! His communication was quickly responsive initially, and regular on a daily basis including pictures of how happy Mocha was during her stay. We are very protective of Mocha, and Logan made sure she was safe and getting along with their cat and one other dog they were caring for during part her stay. I know if they were not getting along he would have kept them separate and protected her. But turns out they all got along. I won’t hesitate to use Logan as my first choice if we ever have need for a caretaker in the future. Thanks Logan!”
“Patty took such great care of our Max. I think she spoiled him as much or more than we do! He always looked happy in her daily updates. We loved getting our “Max Report” in the mornings, afternoon and evenings. I knew I could enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good, loving hands.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with my puppy for his very first time being boarded. Her dogs are great for helping draw a dog out of its shell and help him be part of a pack. She also has fantastic training advice-- truly understands and loves dogs!!”
“Kathy is a wonderful dogsitter! It’s always stressful leaving your furry friends behind, but Kathy takes the time to put you and your dogs at ease. She understands the importance of allowing your dog to go at their own pace and acclimate to their environment during the initial meet and greet and each subsequent visit. She never pushes dogs for interactions they aren’t ready for, which is especially important in my case as one of my dogs is fearful and easily stressed. Kathy also has a dog of her own - the tiniest, sweetest thing. Even my very shy dog doesn’t mind her. Overall, I’d say every experience I’ve had with Kathy has been excellent. She’s good with both dogs and people, she’s caring and easy to talk to, and I find her to be trustworthy and dependable. I’m very grateful to have found her!”
“Lynda watched my cat Mavis for me when I had to make a trip to the Upper Peninsula and couldn’t bring her with me. She kept me up-to-date daily with how Mavis was doing as well as sent me pictures and videos of Mavis.”
“Kaleigh was great with my dogs! She took great care of them while we were out of town. Sent me several pictures too which eased my mind about having a new sitter. Will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thanks Kaleigh for everything you did for the girls!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Zilwaukee on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 100 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Zilwaukee. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Zilwaukee 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 Zilwaukee.
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 Zilwaukee 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.
