“Great family to leave your fluffy friend with. Hugo was happy there and felt like at home. Communication was amazing and care for our dog as well. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you so much”

“Carine, Eric, and family were AMAZING with my two dogs, I got so many updates and pictures and know my girls were getting the best care while I was away. I highly recommend them for pet care!”

“Melissa and her family were great. She was easy to book with and very accommodating with all of our requests. Our dachshund, Squatch, came home happy and tired from a weekend of playing and cuddles. We will definitely be using her again.”

“My dog had a great time at Andrew’s - running and playing outside! She loved playing with Andrew’s dog too! She came home happy and well rested! I will definitely be bringing my dog back for another vacation!”

“Brittany and her husband were GREAT!! She watched our dog Tucker for a few days while we were moving. She kept us up to date on how he was doing, and followed all of our instructions caring for him. We really appreciated her flexibility in timing dropping him off and picking him up - we unexpectedly needed to extend our booking an extra night, and was happy to accommodate this last-minute. I recommend Brittany without reservation - we'll definitely be re-booking in the future!”

“Katie (and Honey) took amazing care of Parker when we were out of town. Her home was clean and pup-ready! This was our first Rover experience and she walked us through any questions we had prior to booking all the way through the stay. Katie did a great job of sending photos and updates while he was with them. Parker came home happy!!”

“Ana and Michael provided a wonderful place for us to leave Blossom for a few days. We were immediately comfortable and welcomed. Blossom made herself at home right away. She loved the fenced in back yard and all the attention. Ana was flexible with drop off and pick up times. She also provided videos and updates on how Blossom was doing. It was a wonderful experience leaving Blossom for the first time. Thank you so much.”

“Kristen and family cared for our Golden Retriever, Rookie so well while we were away! It was comforting knowing that he was in good hands the whole time. Rookie was nice and tired when he got home too so I know that he had fun with some impromptu dog playing of which he loves. Every time we got a picture sent to us, we all raced to see what he was doing and he always looked happy. We have already rebooked for when we will be gone again in the future. Thank you Kristen and Fam!”

“Brenna was a great communicator and our Frenchie appeared very comfortable at her house. We enjoyed our vacation more knowing he was being cared for in a dog loving home, instead of at a kennel. Thank you Brenna!”


“Bethany was wonderful! Our dogs had a great time with her family while we were out of town. She sent daily pictures which was so fun and reassuring. Will definitely book again!”

“Shelby and her family were amazing. She had both of my corgis for the first time for seven nights. She kept me updated throughout the day, every day. It was like she read my mind, too… as soon as I was wondering how my corgs were doing, a notification popped up from her with multiple photos of happy dogs absolutely loving their time with her. I think my dogs miss her now that they are home, haha! We will definitely book with her again!”

“John and Gretchen did an amazing job taking care of Ginger! They gave her so much love and attention, along with frequent walks and fun outings. She settled right in at their home and was treated like family. We received daily updates with photos and could relax and enjoy our vacation knowing she was in their excellent care. Highest recommendation and 5 stars! Will definitely be booking again next time we travel.”

“Daphne had another amazing time with Regina - her third stay in the last four months. She was thrilled to see Regina and had a great time while we were on vacation. We very much appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. We plan to continue using Regina for pet sitting going forward and highly recommend her!”

“Dayjay accompanied us at the last minute when another sitter cancelled. Our grumpy old dog and our high energy pup came home happy and tired — the perfect combination! Dayna’s is experienced with all types of dogs and was very communicative, sending photos and updates while we were away. Would definitely book with her again!”

“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!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Dahlgren 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 Dahlgren.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Dahlgren 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.
