“We could not be happier having Ana & Michael care for our two dogs. We know they were well cared for, and we were kept informed about how well they adapted to Ana & Michael’s home. Knowing your pet is staying in a pet-loving home is such a wonderful feeling. Thank you Ana & Michael!”
“We are very grateful to Melissa and her family for taking such good care of our 3 month old puppy Loki and all that that entails. Even pretty last minute they opened their home and hearts to our sassy little man.”
“Frank and Clarissa were kind and caring to my dog and to me. They were professional and respectful and very responsive to all of my texts. I would use them again and recommend their services 😊”
“Carine & her family took care of my Zeus, and I would definitely recommend. She sent updates, photos, and little videos at a regular basis to let me know how he was doing. He was happy & comfortable with them, and I would rebook. Thanks so much!”
“Carrie and her family were great! We needed someone to watch our pup last minute. They were responsive and provided multiple updates with pictures during a quick overnight stay. We would definitely use them again.”
“Care for Mia was great! I was able to drop off at an early morning hour (which isn’t always ideal) and I was able to pick up earlier than I thought I needed care for. I appreciate the flexibility and knowing Mia was cared for so well!”
About: I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, and fish. I like to make sure the animal is having as much fun as I am. I am trying different jobs so my schedule is always changing. I am split between vet tech and a more wildlife field of study. I can update you as often as you want about your pets. Every hour to once a day it's up to you. I have job shadowed at a vet clinic a few times so I put the animals safety first. I won't pressure or force your animal to do something they don't want. This means that I will spend time with them so they trust me to attach a lesh to go outside. I don't prefer to handle animals at night because they tend to be more cautious but I can if needed.
“Steven and Diana were great with my puppy! We got regular picture updates of all the fun they were having together. They have a nice fenced yard so he could run all of his energy out. We will definitely be booking them again!”
“Larry and Laura took very special care of our dog while we were away for a long weekend. Great communication and you can tell their love for dogs - it shows! We will definitely be booking with them again! Hugs and Wags, John and Brittany”
“Lisa & Drew and their young boys took excellent care of Buck. Lisa communicated above and beyond with updates on how Buck was acclimating to a new environment as well as cute pics of Buck playing with the boys. I highly recommend Lisa & Drew if you are looking for a trust worthy and responsible pet sitter for your pet.”
“Mandy did an excellent job taking care of my 2 pups! One of my dogs needs daily medication and she was able to administer it and send me daily updates! You can tell her heart is in this work!”
“Alecia was really great! We were gone for an extended trip and never once felt worried about our pup.we knew she was in good hands and it wasn’t long before she was completely settled in. We will be reaching out in the future to rebook!”
“Ann goes above and beyond. She gives walks and snuggles, sends pictures and we know that Lenny was so well cared for. This is such a great service and we are very appreciative.”

“Sean was great! Sent us a couple of videos of our dog playing and running around in his big fenced in yard! We could tell he genuinely cares for our pet as if it were his own. Will definitely book with Sean again!”
“Liz was great with Gus and Daisy! They came home happy & tired. Liz is easy to coordinate with and has great communication. I got lots of pictures throughout their stay, which gave me peace of mind. Thanks, Liz!”
“Amazing sitters! They are wonderful with our special needs dog and treat him like a family member. We receive multiple daily updates with pictures and videos. We recommend completely and use them wherever we travel.”
“I can’t recommend Brooke enough! This was Archie’s first stay with a sitter since our move, and I was honestly so nervous leaving him. From the moment I met her, I knew he was in great hands. She kept me updated throughout his stay, and it was such a relief knowing he was safe, loved, and treated like one of her own. Archie settled in so well, ate all of his meals, and even made himself at home (including sleeping in bed with her 😂), which says so much about the environment she provides. As a flight attendant, finding someone I can truly trust with my dog while I’m away is invaluable, and I’m so incredibly thankful I found Brooke. She is kind, communicative, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Archie came home happy, relaxed, and I already know she’ll be my go-to sitter moving forward. If you’re looking for someone to care for your pet like family, I wholeheartedly recommend her! Thank you again, Brooke! ❤️”
“Vanessa was very patient with my dog Rocky. This was his first time staying with someone through Rover and he is rarely apart from my side overnight so this was difficult for him. She was creative in ways to get him to drink some water or eat and persistent with trying to get him to go to the bathroom. She took many notes during the meet and greet which helped her with ideas of things to try to help him feel more comfortable. I appreciated all the updates and pictures which assured me he was safe and well loved while I was attending a wedding out of state.”

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
95% of sitters in Belle Plaine can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Belle Plaine 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 Belle Plaine.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Belle Plaine. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Belle Plaine 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 MN 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
