“Amy was great! She provided lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay and was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. She also gave our boys lots of play time so they were definitely tuckered out when they got home! Definitely will see if Amy has availability the next time we need to have the dogs watched. Thanks!!”
“Jasmine is a great communicator and loving pet owner who is more than trustworthy and pure hearted to care for your pets. My dogs enjoyed their time playing hard and being in a loving home while we were away. Can’t wait to for their next stay.”
“Maisey settled right in, they took such good care of her. She was comfortable and cuddling immediately!! They accommodated me last minute and I was so fortunate to find them!”
“We know our doggy was in great hands. We got lots of updates from Dustin. She went on good walks, played in the yard, and got lots of relaxing in on his couch when she wasn’t patrolling the sidewalk from the window ;-) Everything from first meeting to final pickup was smooth.”
“Erin & Ramon were great! My senior dog had a ball with them I appreciated her asking if he played well with other dogs before accepting another dog booking while watching mine. I would definitely book them again in the future.”
“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!”
“Dave was great. He took excellent care of our lab and was very responsive whenever we reached out to check on how he was doing. Dave was flexible with pick up and drop off and sent a lot of pictures while we were gone. Would definitely book with him again.”
“Elsa took wonderful care of our two Pomeranians, Jojo and Lola. She sent daily updates with pictures and video and it was clear that the pups were very happy! They’d never been left with a sitter before so we were nervous but Elsa made us feel confident that our babies were being properly pampered and loved!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our cat again and providing a safe and fun place for her! We appreciated the photos and updates on how she was doing during her stay.”
“Timmothy is a very caring host. He sends photos and videos that let us know that our dog is happy, entertained and at home with Timmothy and his other pets. Our dog has spent multiple stays with Timmothy, and we have always been comfortable and pleased with the experience!”
“Sarah is a truly marvelous dog sitter! I was traveling for about 2 weeks and was a bit anxious about leaving my dog for that long but she and her family watched my 9 month old husky as if he were their own dog. She sent pics the entire time and each pic showed a very happy dog. I will definitely be reaching out to her next time and would highly recommend her.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs gave me a deep understanding of the unique bond between pets and their families. As an adult, I spent six wonderful years caring for my own Standard Poodle, which taught me the nuances of high-energy breeds, regular grooming needs, and the importance of daily mental stimulation. What sets me apart is the same dedication I bring to my role as a leader and a parent. I approach pet care with patience, reliability, and a keen eye for detail. Whether it’s maintaining a consistent routine, ensuring safety, or simply providing extra cuddles, I treat every dog in my care with the same love and attention I would give my own. You can trust that your furry family member is in capable, caring hands. I work from home 3 out of 5 days. I don't live far from my office, so on the days I work in the office, I can come home for walks. When hosting pets in my home, my top priority is creating a safe, welcoming, and calm environment. I believe that a dog’s comfort comes from consistency and genuine care, which is why I prioritize maintaining your pet's established routines regarding feeding, exercise, and rest. My home is perfectly set up for active and happy dogs. We have a decent-sized, secure yard for quick outdoor play, and we are located in a highly walkable neighborhood with easy access to local parks and trails, perfect for daily sniff-and-stretch walks. What makes my home unique is that your pet will be part of our family. My 4-year-old child is a huge animal lover who enjoys helping with gentle care, like supervised playtime and giving treats. Because my child is so involved, I am very intentional about ensuring that every dog I host is comfortable around children and that interactions are always calm, supervised, and positive. Whether it’s a quiet afternoon of belly rubs or an energetic walk on a nearby trail, I ensure every guest feels right at home. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in a secure, loving environment where they will be treated like one of our own.
“Jennifer was a great sitter for my 3 y/o AmStaff, Isla! She was prompt and professional in her communication and took the time to get to know Isla and do everything she could to make her stay a positive experience. I felt very confident that my girl was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Jennifer and plan to book with her again next time we're traveling.”
“Sarah and Paul are very nice and professional. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with them. I love their attentiveness to the needs of their pups and the routine they follow. Thank you, Sarah and Paul!”
“April and Austin take amazing care of Hercules! He loves staying there when we go out of town, and when we arrive he immediately starts to run around the fenced yard and play with Tulla. My family talks about how comforting it is to know he's in great hands and always has fun. We also love the pictures and updates while we're away! I would highly recommend entrusting your dog to their care.”
“Aastha and Dan were phenomenal. Our dog gets very anxious at drop-off, and they went above and beyond to ease his transition and make him feel at home. Aastha sent many pictures and messages throughout each day and they were incredibly considerate and attentive to our dog, especially over Fourth of July fireworks. We weren't sure if he would want to come home, he was having such fun with Aastha and Dan! Highly recommend -- they will be our first choice for boarding in the future.”
“Excellent, very attentive to my dog, I often report the games and affection to my dog. I recommend it 100%. Communication was excellent. Of course, next time I will count on her.”
“Erin was an amazing pet sitter for our two dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and cared for while we were gone. Our dogs LOVED running around in her big backyard, and getting to make themselves at home on her furniture. Erin's two dogs also got along really well with our dogs. We appreciated getting pictures and videos every day to let us know our girls were doing well. We would definitely use Erin again to watch our doggies!”
“They were the most amazing family to have watch our two dogs. We reached out with very short notice and they took them in right away. They gave us updates every day and always sent pictures. Best family on Rover!”

Seth and Jackie watched our dog for over 2 weeks while we got married and went on our honeymoon and we felt so happy from the second we dropped him off because he was so excited to be back staying with them, we knew he was in great hands! They sent us lots of photos of Moose having a blast, running around in the backyard, going for walks, and being a goofball!! We appreciated their attention to detail, updates, and kindness so much!! Would highly recommend booking with Seth and Jackie!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Timmy! ❤️ They took such amazing care of him and kept us updated the entire time with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. They even made sure Timmy got to experience his first boat ride! It was so comforting knowing he was in such good hands and being loved on while we were gone. We’re so grateful for the care, communication, and thoughtfulness they showed Timmy. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!

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.
94% of sitters in Brooklyn Center 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 Brooklyn Center 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 Brooklyn Center.
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 Brooklyn Center. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Brooklyn Center 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.
