“Trudy did an amazing job keeping us up to date on Cooper’s stay! He seemed like a happy boy when I picked him up! Definitely would stay with Trudy again! Cooper got PLENTY of outside time and got to spend time with other pups without having to deal with a kennel!”
“Maureen watched our 2 dogs while we were on vacation (7 nights) and treated them like they were her own. I really appreciated the ease of communication with her, her friendliness, and the amount of pictures she sent while we were gone. Our dogs came home exhausted and happy - we will absolutely use her in the future and recommend her to others.”
“Outstanding service. Meg provided daily updates and did a phenomenal job with our dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking quality care when boarding their pet.”
“Rene is great and my dog King loves her. Apparently he sneaked out under a small rabbit hole - not her fault cuz King tends to dig and look for where he can escape. He returned without problem and I will always continue to use Rene as my doggy sitter. She takes great care of him!!”
“Our puppy had a great time at their house! We're glad he was able to get lots of play time. We greatly enjoyed receiving pictures/updates of our puppy while we were away. We highly recommend Linnea & Nate!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Amy made it easy. We were in a last minute pinch the week of Christmas. She was a huge help and made the experience amazing. This was also the first time our dog was away from us. We received updates and photos while we were away. We could tell our dog was well taken care of and loved. I will for sure be booking with her again. I can’t thank her enough for all the care she provided him.”
“We highly recommend Kyle! Our dog, Waffles, loves to stay with them, we have used Kyle several times for long trips and we appreciate the updates he sends us and love that our dog just gets to join in on their day to day routine! Love coming home from a trip to a happy and tired dog.”
“Another great stay. Glenn got to see one of his dog friends too!! Boarding and day care with Yuliya has helped Glenn better interact and communicate with other dogs.”
“Kajae and Emily were excellent hosts for Murphy! Emily sent lots of photos and communication to keep me in the loop with how Murphy was doing during her stay, and she returned home a very happy pup! Will definitely be booking future stays with Kajae and Emily!”
“Lori was amazing! She made Nipsey feel like a part of the family! She updated me everyday and sent pictures of Nipsey. Nipsey definitely enjoyed himself and we will most certainly book her 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.”
“I feel so lucky to have found Laura to care for Willie for six nights while I brought my kids to college out of state! Willie may be little, but he’s a big spoiled baby. Laura and her family gave him just what he needed: lots of love, snuggles, walks, play, and nap time! I lived for her daily texts and photos which assured me that I had made the right choice to have him at Laura’s. No question, this will not be the first time that Willie stays at Laura’s when I have to go out of town.”
“I’m giving a well-deserved 5-star rating to Manami! Booking was super easy. She took time to meet Lulu a few weeks before watching her. They hit it off right from the start! She was very accommodating on drop off and pick up times. Lulu got plenty of exercise. And then plenty of naps! We appreciated Manami’s great communication, including several pictures while we were away. She’ll definitely be our first call the next time we need to leave Lulu with someone!”
“Kathryn was extremely nice and easy to work with. She responded promptly and was very accommodating. Loki had a great time with her, and we would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with her again.”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful. This was my first time having to board my pup and Christine took amazing care of him. She sent me updates and pictures and made sure that my pup was well taken care of and felt safe. Highly recommend Christine!”
“We had a fantastic experience using Sophan to care for our older dog. Daily updates were sent to us and it appeared as though our pup was well taken care of! Good communication from Sophan and the accommodations worked well for our dog!”

Karlee did a good job with my 3 dogs. My small senior needs extra care and is needy due to his age and aches and pains. Karlee did a good job keeping me informed on what was going on with the dogs and sending pictures. I appreciate the care and extra work she did to watch my senior dog and othee two pups.

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.
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.

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 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.
