“Lori and her family were wonderful hosts for our Great Dane Gretta! Through the week we received pictures and updates on Gretta's stay. Immediately we could tell she was welcomed in and was feeling right at home. We will definitely utilize Lori in the future and would highly recommend Lori if you need someone to trust with your puppy!”
“Amy is great to work with. Our dogs loved it. They came home very exhausted that is great for us. Amy communicates with you quickly and sends daily pictures. She has a fenced in yard that helps and assists with dogs running about for exercise. I would highly recommend Amy to help you with your fur babies.”
“Thank you so much for taking wonderful care of Theo while we were away in Mexico. Theo loves spending time with your family; he is so happy when we drop him off and pick him up! It gives us peace of mind when we are gone to know he is with a caring family. Thank you Ramanda ( + family). We appreciate all you do!!”
About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 10. I am currently accepting to take of dogs in my home whether they doggy daycare, overnight stay, extended overnights, and dog walking/feeding. I love to give dogs all kinds of cuddles and love. I understand that dogs speak to us though actions in which I am very empathetic with. I will be patient, kind amd caring showing your dog(s) lots of attention and love. I have excellent references. I'm currently working part time, so while I'm gone I can crate your dog but will be back within 4 hours for a potty break! Im available between 5pm- 7pm for drop offs and pick ups Monday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday from 9am -5pm I have a home where your dog can roam or I can crate them if need be. I will keep them on a leash if when we go outside and I don't live far from a very large dog park where I can take your dog to play catch if you are comfortable with that of course.
“We feel extremely comfortable leaving Chester with Trudy. She goes out of her way to make him feel at home and happy in his temporary lodgings. She keeps us up-to-date on everything he’s up to. She really has an extra kind and caring heart for the pooches in her care, you can just tell. Thank you, Trudy.”
“Petunia had a lovely stay with Laura! She played with other dogs so received lots of exercise. I love the constant photos and updates of her during the stay! Laura was so easy to work with, communicated quickly and flexible. I would recommend her for other’s pups!”
“This was my first Rover booking and Yulia made both me and my pet very comfortable by following care instructions, providing timely updates, and being as friendly and helpful as possible. I felt Yulia treated my pet with the level of care needed to ensure comfort for both me and my pet. I would definitely book with Yulia again!”
“Our little guy absolutely loved his time with Kajae and Emily! He came back to us after an overnight stay very tired and happy. They clearly treat your animal like their own and also send pictures and updates. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone 😊”
“Tanya is the best ! Our golden doodle ,Boomer was with Tanya for a month when we went out of country . Boomer gets anxious when we are not around . She took good care of him and he was very happy with Tanya . Pictures were shared everyday and Boomer was super clean when we picked him up . Very happy and will use her service again”
“Derek and his family take such good care of our dogs, we have booked with him several times now. When we drop them off and they go inside his house they don't even look back at us lol. This time we booked last minute and over the 4th of July holiday weekend so it was a double whammy. We were so relieved to find out Derek was available! Thanks to Derek and his family we know our dogs have a home away from home 😊 Thanks again Derek! We'll be booking again soon.”
“Brenda was AMAZING! She was so great with my dog and was fully prepared. I would go back to her next trip without a doubt! Went over the top with taking pictures and making a magnet for my fridge with her top picture:)”
“Jen and Josh were great dog sitters! Their pet friendly home was the perfect oasis for our fur children to have a carefree night away from mom and dad. 10/10 would recommend”
“Kyle was great! He has an awesome fenced in backyard for dogs like mine who have high energy and need room to run. My dog Marvel also needs a couple minutes to warm up to new dogs and Kyle handled introductions really well. He also helped administer some daily medication he needed without any hesitation on the special request. Marvel came home happy and tired from all of the playing with Coco and the other dogs there. Would book again!”
“Kelsey has great communication and I got sooo many photo updates over the weekend. I could tell my pup was quite spoiled with love while he was there and appreciated having two other pups around. We already have a longer stay tentatively planned because we liked her so much. Thanks for loving Marshall like your own, Kelsey! 😊”

There are 838 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Big Lake. About 93% of Big Lake 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.

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.
