“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“Alicia and Simon's family were wonderful hosts for our Toffee! Toffee was thrilled with his time playing with Daisy and the kids. When Toffee was not showing interest in his food, Alicia offered to add chicken broth which worked. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness. Toffee cant wait to go back to them and Daisy!”
“From start to finish, Natalie was everything I could have asked for in a Rover sitter! I have a very nervous rescue dog and Natalie went out of her way to help her feel as comfortable as possible. I also made a scheduling error and at the last minute needed to drop off my dog a day early. Natalie was so flexible and made it happen. Natalie sent pictures and even videos of my dog happily snuggling and playing with other dogs. I felt great about leaving my dog with Natalie. I'd absolutely use her again!”
“My dog, Mara, had such a great time with this family! Shelby regularly sent pictures and videos of walks and time with other dogs. They took such wonderful care of our dog and she also had a vacation with many nature walks and play time. Shelby will be our go-to for dog sitting from now on! 10 out of 10”
“My babies had not been to her house in a YEAR- and immediately they were running around and comfortable outside like they were there every day. Next Karrie called them and they ran into house like we were not even there! Made us feel so good! Definitely going to have her care for them again!”
“As always Jeremiah takes great care of Bo. Always keeps us informed on how Bo is doing and sends lots of pictures. He even works to figure out how to help with Bo when he is being a picky eater and making sure he is eating.”
“Cassandra and Eric were very proactive and responsive while our pup was with them, and loving too! We will definitely book with their family again in the future :)”
“Darian was amazing. We used her for a 2 week vacation and we are so grateful to have found her. We will definitely use her again. She taught our puppy how to walk on a leash, which he was struggling with before we dropped him off. We received daily updates, photos and videos, and never had to worry about him being cared for, loved on and played with.”
“Our aged Pixie requires several medications and special attention. Stacey loved Pixie up while we were away. Pixie was very comfortable and well cared for. We look forward to another stay.”
“Karen is one of the kindest, most caring people I've come across in a long time. After an issue with my previous boarding reservation, I found Karen the night before my trip, and she took both of my dogs with less than 12 hours' notice. While I was away, she sent consistent updates and photos. She spoiled them with long walks, treats, toys, and plenty of cuddles. It was clear she treated them like part of her own family. When I picked them up, they almost seemed sad to leave! They came home more relaxed and happy than I've ever seen them after a trip. I'd give her 6 stars if I could. Highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a kind, loving sitter for their pets.”
“John and Gretchen took great care of my shy dog Stella. She warmed right up to them and I could tell she was so comfortable there. They also shared so many photos and updates through the day. So happy to have found these two wonderful people to watch my pup.”
“Kiersa cares for my 100# Labrador which is no easy task. She shows him love and kindness which I so appreciate. I always feel comfortable leaving Enzo in her care. Kiersa is awesome!”
“What a blessing Trace is! Her place couldn't be better suited for dog care. A huge fenced in yard front pirch & dog run. She also has 4 Basset hounds!! Lily took immediate attention to Teddy. Such a wonderful time she had.She is so kind, knowledgeable and detailed oriented. My 3 mo Great Pyrenees...Lily Lu felt right @ home. Didn't even look back at me to say goodbye! I have her on speed dial and looking forward to many outings to her home for Lily Lu! She's the best!! So is her grandson, Evan!”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. It was a great experience. Lots of updates and pics and they are treated like their own animals. Will book again.”
“Dee is the best! She takes great care of our little Luna. She is the only sitter we want to use. She sends us pics throughout the stay which is so nice to see too. I can tell Luna loves staying with her 😎”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 1,789 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Cologne. About 91% of Cologne 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.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.
