“Frank and Clarissa were amazing. They sent us pictures, let us know how our dog was doing and kept us at ease. Our dog can be a little shy when he first meets people and they made him feel like part of their family. Highly recommend!”
“Carine and her family are very caring and responsible! Our puppy had a great time playing with her kids. We brought our "potty bell" for him to use to tell them when he needed to go out, and Carine used that to seamlessly continue his potty training! Communication with her was very clear and prompt. Her house was very clean too! We're planning to bring our dog to her house again in the future!”
“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!”
“Janna sent regular sweet updates about how Bella was doing and pictures too. Bella adjusted to her temporary home right away and had a blast with there. I'll choose Janna again in a heartbeat.”
“Jana was very kind to send pics and updates (admittedly, I’m sure I bugged her more) 😂. I look forward to using her again and so does Zoe (she said she hopes her “friend” is there at the same time too!)”
“Katie was amazing! She was very responsive during initial communication and accommodating! Our doggo is a homebody and Katie made him feel right at home, and always kept us updated (with pictures!) on how he was doing. We had a great experience and 110% would book again!”
“I was impressed with how kind, warm and considerate Patrick and his children are, Gaia took to them immediately and the pictures that were sent, were a comfort to me knowing Gaia liked and trusted them, 5 stars.”
“Sachi was very well cared for while we were away. A shared video clips and photos every day and we could see she was happy and felt right at home with An. We highly recommend An.”
“Our dog had a great stay with Vanessa and Andrew’s family. I got a bunch of pictures, great communication and a happy dog when I picked her up. We will be back soon! Thank you!!”
“Milo's stay with Patricia was wonderful. We received top notch communication and pictures. My worries in leaving my "attached" puppy were immediately lessened as Patricia quickly sought Milo's attention when we arrived versus looking to care to the parents first. I would highly recommend Patricia!”
“Rosemarie and Gerald took amazing care of our elderly pup, Peanut. The sent multiple pictures and videos and were great at giving Peanut the food and meds she needs as a senior pup. I would highly recommend Rosemarie and Gerald for the care of your pup and I will use them again the next time we need to have care for Peanut.”
“it went very well. her Gemma is a sweet dog that no doubt helped our pup settle in without much trouble. Charlene took our pup on several walks, sent us several photos and a couple videos, and kept us fully at ease that we chose correctly! thank you so much!”
About: We have had a number of different breeds of dogs throughout the years. We can't wait to make your pet at home in our home. I am currently working from home and will be here for pretty much constant attention. I will only be gone for short periods of time. We have a fenced yard and we have a gentle male golden retriever who has never met a dog that he doesn't love! In nice weather, we spend most of our days outside in the yard.
“Bethany, Tony and the entire family were excellent with our dog, Gracie. She is a very nervous dog, but she was quickly at ease with their family. They sent a number of photos and updates, and she was clearly enjoying her time there. We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Knowing your dog is in a caring and trusted place is the #1 priority in choosing a dog sitter while your away and Cindy and Blaine more than filled this requirement with dairy updates on our pup and short communications on his day. These two are outstanding sitters and we will be using them again. Thank you for taking care of Iggy so well while we were gone.”
“Dee was the perfect caregiver for our pet. She treated our dog like family. She sent daily pictures and updates, they went on walks and enjoyed visits and attention from Dee's family members. Would definitely recommend and would book again.”
“Kate took GREAT care of our miniature Schnauzers. She kept us up to date with regular updates throughout their stay. She even included pictures of the fun they were having. I would highly recommend Kate! She clearly loves dogs and takes extra great care to ensure a safe stay! We will be using Kate for our next vacation!!!”
“Nickolai and his family were perfect for our 2 dogs who are used to family life. He took great care of their needs and invited them in to being part of a temporary family with them.”
“Marlene took wonderful care of my dog Jangles! She sent pictures everyday and gave me updates. She is an excellent sitter and followed our instructions for Jangles' routine perfectly. He seemed very comfortable and happy when I picked up.”

Kiersa was so great! We ended up losing our previous dog sitter the day before our trip and Kiersa was so flexible and to accommodate us. It turns out that I think we have found our new pet sitter forever! Blue has never been so happy to arrive at a home and when he returned home is is in the best spirits. Usually he is tired and a little grumpy, but today he is light, and his happy self! Thank you so much, Kiersa! We will book with you again... I promise we will give a little more notice next time. Thanks again!
Cherie was wonderful with our dog, Leo! He can be very shy and Cherie did an amazing job working with him and accommodating his needs. Cherie's communication is great and we truly appreciated the regular photos and updates. Leo was so well cared for and we are grateful to Cherie and her family for the peace of mind while we were away. Cherie was also very flexible and understanding with timing and last minute changes which was greatly appreciated. Thank you! 🐶❤️
Karen took wonderful care of Napoleon and gave him the time and space he needed to adjust at his own pace. It means so much to know he was in such caring and patient hands. I feel so much better, knowing I have someone I can truly trust to take care of him. I’m so grateful to have found Karen and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, understanding, and reliable pet sitter!
Cinder always has the best time at Jeremiah’s! He was so excited as we pulled up to the house and Cinder realized where we were. Jeremiah and his family always take wonderful care of Cinder, and are great communicators. We’re especially grateful that Jeremiah was so accommodating with our drop off and pickup schedule requests. Thank you!!
We had a great experience boarding our dog Lucy with Stacey. She has a true passion and enthusiasm for taking care of dogs! Stacey made sure Lucy had a great time going for walks, eating treats and doing puzzle toys. We loved getting stories and pictures during our trip, assuring us that she was in great hands while we were on our trip. Thank you Stacey!
We couldn't be happier with the care Doyle and Nellie provide for our dog, Vesper. They always make sure she feels safe, loved, and well cared for while we're away, which gives us complete peace of mind. It's obvious they genuinely enjoy spending time with her because she always has so much fun. Every time Vesper comes home, she's happily exhausted from all the play and attention she's received! Knowing she's not just being watched but truly cared for means so much to us. We are incredibly grateful for everything Doyle and Nellie do and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Vesper!
Cristina and her family were wonderful. Confident from the moment we communicated that my doggie would be well taken care for. He stayed at their place for five days and we received constant communication and pictures/ videos. Classic wondering if our dog loves it more at Cristina’s house than ours! Will be asking her again to watch our dood.
Isabelle responded quickly & was so friendly and flexible with my schedule changes & many questions since it was my 1st time using Rover. Bentley was welcomed with open arms and got along great with her 2 dogs. I knew he'd be in great hands and get all the love and play time he needed. Isabelle sent me photos which really put me at ease to know he was safe and having a great time. He came home exhausted and happy. I couldn't ask for a more loving caregiver than IsabelIe and she only lives 2 blks from my home. Thank you, I will definitely be calling her again. .
Mandi was amazing! This was our dog's first boarding experience and it was definitely a great one. He's still a puppy and learning to stay away from us is something he's still getting used to from time to time. Mandi was very accommodating and super helpful before we dropped our pup off. The drop-off and pick-up process was easy and stress-free. There was another review that said the property was hard to find, but Mandi provided me the address and google maps had no issues finding it! Our pup definitely seemed to be having a good time. It was also a great experience for him to hang around dogs and kids in a more casual and calm setting. I would definitely recommend Mandi for your boarding needs!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Chanhassen is $45 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $63 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
94% of sitters in Chanhassen 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 Chanhassen 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 Chanhassen.
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 Chanhassen. 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 Chanhassen 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.
