Lorelei was the best! She was exactly the Rover experience we were hoping for! She was very responsive, provided daily updates about our dog Willy and even sent photos. We cannot wait for our next stay with her!

Could not be more happy about the care our girl received! She was well taken care of and we received lots of pictures and videos so we knew what she was up to while she was there. Would absolutely book again! :)

Paula is my #1 pick to take care of my dog when I travel out of town. She's so caring and loving and takes care of my pup well. She gives the dog freedom and my pup loves going there. Paula sends pictures often and its nice to see he's having a good time. I hope she continues taking care of pups for the longest time as she does it well with care, attention and love.

Easy pickup and drop off, friendly, updates with pictures of my dog during her 1 week stay with them. They got her to eat her breakfast every morning and play and she's a shy nervous girl!

Lindsay was quick to respond to all my messages and made it easy to arrange drop off and pick up. She sent a number of photos of my dog and took her for a number of long walks, just what the dog needs to balance her abundance energy. I would highly recommend her and will use her again.

Kara has been an awesome care provider for us in the past and this was our first extended stay. I knew they were in wonderful hands. She sent photos of all the fun they were having on the weekend vacation of their own! Kara is a fantastic care provider and I know my pups had an awesome time with hers!

This was the 2nd time Katie and Samuel’s family took care of Jarvis while we were away. We were very excited when they were available for these dates because Jarvis had a great time with them the first time. They did such an amazing job with him again and it really seemed like Jarvis felt right a home. They always send frequent updates and pictures which is really appreciated :)

I was very nervous to leave my dog Bailey. 1. I had never left her and 2.She had a small issue with her paw just before my vacation. When informing him about the issues and the shedding problem , there were no hesitations on what needs to be done to keep up with the grooming. You should have no worries when you hire this person. The communication, the pictures,the condition of my dogand the level of care were outstanding. I was very lucky to find somebody on short notice and appreciate the sensitivity and kindness. Thank you, Shawn, for all your help and for making Bailey such a happy girl for the days I was gone.

Great communication for booking, through their stay, and when we needed to adjust our pick up time. We received pictures of our ladies several times, which brightened our day and helped us feel at ease when we were away. They were very attentive to the different food and medication needs our ladies have. We will definitely use them again for future boarding.

Very appreciative of Shelly being able to take our dog in on short notice for a few days due to a last minute change of plans. Was very accommodating and helped out with our dog's medication. From all indications our dog had a great time!

Shelly was outstanding! Highly communicative, attentive to our needs, anticipated potential concerns, and kept us up to date during our dog's stay. Pepper came home safe & happy, and I really couldn't ask for a better experience. If she's available, book her!

FAQs for Boarding - Cottage Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Cottage Grove on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 533 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Cottage Grove. About 93% of Cottage Grove 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 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 WI 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.
