“Tracy made our pup part of the family and he absolutely loved staying with her! She sent updates and pictures and addressed any concerns I had with him being away from home in a new environment. I appreciate her being so attentive-- we will definitely be utilizing Tracy's services again!”
“I highly recommend Lori. She did a wonderful job watching our dog for a week while we were on vacation. She offered to meet with us in advance so our dog was able to check everything out. This made us (and our dog) more comfortable with the stay. She took great care of him and even sent us a few photos during the week. This was great for our 3 kids who missed him quite a bit. We could tell he was given lots of love and attention. Seriously could not recommend Lori more highly.”

“Jared watched our doggo for a last minute weekend away from home. He was responsive, flexible, and genuinely happy to see our dog, which made us feel comfortable despite them being newer to Rover. He was clearly experienced with dogs and sent us photos and updates about walks, playing fetch, taking meds, and getting snuggles in. Our dog seemed relaxed returning to us. We won’t hesitate to reach out to Jared again in the future. Thank you!”

“Morgan and Jordan once again did a wonderful job taking care of our Gracie. It helps me so much to know she’s happy and well cared for. I highly recommend their loving care!”

“Jie (and her family) were excellent caretakers for Luna. Feeding instructions were followed and communication was great while our dog boarded at her home! We received videos and photos every day, which assured me of how well Luna was being taken care of. We will definitely rebook with Jie!”


“Perla took wonderful care of my cat for 3 days. She followed all of my feeding instructions carefully and kept me updated throughout his stay. She regularly sent me photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind. One of the things that stood out the most was seeing videos of my cat sleeping next to her daughter. To me, that showed that he felt comfortable, safe, and secure in their home. It was clear that Perla treated him with kindness and care. I highly recommend Perla to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such good care of my kitty!”


About: What sets me apart is my experience, patience, compassion, and genuine love for dogs. I have cared for many different types, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including senior dogs who may need extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I take the time to learn what makes each dog comfortable and happy. I have also raised dogs of my own, giving me hands-on experience with daily care, training, routines, exercise, feeding, medications when needed, and recognizing when a dog needs extra attention. I’m reliable, attentive, flexible, and communicative, and I treat every dog in my care like a member of my own family. My Daily Routine Because I work from home with a flexible schedule, caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout much of the day, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and walks without them feeling like they are simply being left alone. I typically start the day with potty time, breakfast, and some attention or a walk before settling into work. Throughout the workday, I take breaks to check on the dogs, let them outside for potty breaks using a leash or tie-out, other walk as needed to give them attention, and make sure they are comfortable. They are welcome to relax near me while I work, and I can adjust my routine based on each dog’s individual needs. I do occasionally need to be away from home for work or other commitments, but I’m very flexible and plan my schedule around the dogs in my care whenever possible. I’m comfortable adjusting feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, rest time, or other routines to match what your dog is accustomed to. My goal is to provide a calm, loving home environment where your dog can feel comfortable, included, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m happy to work with their individual personality, age, energy level, and routine. I treat every dog in my home like one of my own, while following the routine and preferences their family has established for them with love, attention and affection.
“Mary is absolutely the BEST! Our family is SO thankful that we found such a caring person to watch Teddy while we are away! She sends daily pictures, gets Teddy outside and on walks, and we know Teddy is having so much fun with her dog Izzy! We truly could not ask for a better dog sitter! We plan on booking with her again and again! Thank you Mary!!!🩷”

“Oliver absolutely had a fantastic time. Julie and Ben have amazing communication and really focused on progressing and continuing Oliver’s training, building off the work and methods already set in place.”

“Joseph is a very caring and honest pet provider, he had our charlie(dog) for a week and i never had to Worry once about her he pampered her with so much attention love and many many walks and made her feel right at home, we will definitely bring her back!!”

“Amy and her husband were such wonderful caretakers for our 12 year old lab mix. We would definitely love to have them care for him again. The communication was great and it is clear they cared for our dog as if he was their own. Highly recommend!”
“Kendra did an amazing job with Emmy. She acknowledged and understood Emmy's personality and was patient as Emmy was able to get to know her. She walked her everyday (even in the cold!) which is so important to a husky mix's well-being. She also stuck to Emmy's routine which helped too. Kendra provided the right amount of updates so that we felt Emmy was in good hands and well cared for our whole trip. We loved to hear that Kendra made Emmy feel so comfortable that her personalty and demanded belly rubs came out! We are so grateful and appreciative of Kendra!”

“Liss, you are the best! I always feel so at ease, knowing that Eli is being taken care of. She comes home so happy and worn out from all of her fun at your house. Thank you for everything.”

“Whitney and her family were amazing to my sweet boy! She was so flexible with her time, she let me drop him off early and pick him up earlier than his scheduled pick up time. She sent me pictures and updates during this stay too. I would recommend anyone to have Whitney watch their babies!”
“Denise and Michael are wonderful grandparents to our little dog. She gets long walks daily and even gets to visit their cabin depending on the time of year. We couldn't ask for better dogsitters!”

Our dogs love Angela! We have a 12 year old lab and a 4 year old lab (who never runs out of energy). This lab doesn't like daycares and gets anxious but she RUNNNSSS up to Angela's door when we go there. And Angela takes her running with her! It's bittersweet to leave a great review because she's earned it but I don't want to compete for her availability. 🤣

Vanessa and her daughters took such wonderful care of Cooper! ❤️ We made a last-minute reservation, and they were incredibly attentive to every detail, making sure he felt loved, comfortable, and happy. It was clear from the moment we met them how much they genuinely care for the pets they watch. I received pictures and updates throughout the day, along with notifications about everything they did, which gave me so much peace of mind. 🤗 Knowing Cooper was in such caring hands made all the difference. I am so thankful we found Vanessa and her family, and I would absolutely trust them with Cooper again. Highly recommend!

Morgan and Jordan were very kind to our dog, Lucius, treating him like family. They gave him plenty of snuggles and kept us updated with photos. Their fenced in backyard is a bonus since we don’t have one. Their dogs are sweet and accepting of other dogs. We would definitely request to book again!

Cate was fantastic with our Morkie! She provided updates and pictures and worked to make sure everything was as seamless as possible. (Including a meet and greet prior and flexible pick up). Upon pick up, we could tell that Penny had bonded with Cate and her pups. We will definitely be back again. Thank you!

There are 2,531 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Apple Valley. About 92% of Apple Valley sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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 MN 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.
