“Rebekah was amazing watching our pup and we loved all the pictures she took. Her pup was so sweet and played so well with ours. Rebekah was so easy to communicate and coordinate with!”
“Hannah was great with our puppy! Sent photos shortly after I left l, which put my mind at ease since this was the first time bringing him there. He seemed to love her and his time there! Will definitely use her again! She was also flexible with my pickup time as it shifted due to work. Thank you Hannah!”
“Thomas and his wife are so welcoming and kind! They did absolutely amazing with our two month old puppy! They welcomed her with such loving arms! We can’t wait to rebook with them!”
About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.
“Sophia was very kind and welcoming of our pup. We received pics and updates throughout her doggy daycare experience. I felt that our dog was well cared for and loved during her stay.”

“What a wonderful couple. They “get” dogs. Our one has separation anxiety and the other is borderline. They seemed so chill here and happy. We even got a happy photo of them. We’ll definitely be back. This is so much better than them being cooped up in a kennel at a boarder. Thank you, see you next time.”
About: Since I was 6 years old my family had dogs and cats as pets. All the dogs we had we got as puppies so I handled the potty training, taught tricks and the main obedience training like sit and stay. I've watched family and friends dogs which also included days/nights at a time like when they were out of town working. I have watched and been with tiny dogs to giant dogs. I'm a stay at home mom at the moment so I have plenty of time to care for your pet pretty much at anytime day or night. I have a fenced yard so easy to let in and out as needed, big area take out or let out to play. My house is pretty open with area for them to roam or find good spot to just relax. I have never crated any of my animals but if needed or wanted obviously I could do that. If you have a special diet for your dog I would follow that for you also. My kids and I also love to go on walks and would love your dog to join. I do have three very young kids so your dog must get along with children. My kids love animals, they were very sad after losing our last dog so they'd be very excited to play with others. I am home daily with my kids, I only leave when I need to go to the store or take kids to an activity. So they won't be left alone for long if at all while in my care. I have a fenced in yard for a safe place to run and play while outside. My house is decent size so plenty of area and all open to them so they feel at home. You can bring whatever you think your animal needs to be comfortable.

“Kristi took very good care of Thor during his stay! When I picked him up it seemed like he had a very eventful day! Even though it was a rainy he was still very clean as she made sure to clean him up before I got there! She made sure to answer my questions and send plenty of updates during the day! She went out of her way to answer a question I had when I was picking Thor up responding and getting an answer on her own time! I highly recommend Kristi's services! Thank you Kristi!”

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and raising animals, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and an understanding of different personalities and needs. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. What sets me apart is the genuine bond I build with animals and my dedication to their happiness, whether that means playtime, walks, or simply giving them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is already a part of my daily routine. Between feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping up with my own dogs, I’m used to giving animals structure and attention every single day. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening walks, pets are always the center of my schedule. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space where they feel welcomed as part of the family. I stick to regular feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give lots of love and attention. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their routines as closely as possible, whether mealtime, walks, or bedtime, so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to always create consistency, comfort, and trust.
“Highly recommend Christina! She’s a great dog sitter. She responded fast and professionally. Most importantly my dog was very worn out when I picked him up! Highly impressed with her service.”
About: I have owned medium-large dogs my whole life. I now work from home and have over 8 acres and walking trails all around my house. My dogs and I go for hikes/swims/walks daily. I also go jogging with my fathers hunting dogs as they love to run. Your dog will be provided with ample exercise and lots of play time. I live a very active lifestyle but we also love to just bunker down and relax! I love spending time with dogs and would be honored to treat yours as my own while you are away! Please do not hesitate to message me with any special requests or questions. Thank you for reading! I work from home and have a fenced yard. So you dog will never be alone unless I need to run to town for a little. I have a fenced yard and 2 dogs to help entertain your fur baby. If you prefer they stay separated that is possible as well.
About: I have many years of experience with dogs and have trained my own dogs my entire life! My experience ranges from small to giant breed dogs and I am comfortable with most any pet! My home has a fenced in backyard with turf grass and lots of toys to play with for your daycare or boarding needs! I also sanitize the toys and yard with a pet safe spray between pets to ensure everyone stays as healthy as possible! If you would like your fur baby to have more exercise than the fenced in yard we can always happily add on a walk to go see the neighborhood sites! I work from home and am free to provide lots of snuggles and playtime with your fur baby throughout the day! My job is very flexible and I also am able to do drop in visits in your own home as often as you may need and can stop by to go on as many walks per day as you wish! I am comfortable giving medications or giving extra care your pet may need! They are in great hands with me and are always treated as if they were my own! Since my days are so open and flexible I am able to accommodate almost anything you may need, just ask! Aside from a quick errand here or there, I am home and able to give constant attention while your pet(s) are in my care. I do have crates available if your dog needs to be crated if I need to run somewhere, or I am perfectly comfortable leaving them out to roam and snooze on the couch if that’s what they are used to! Aside from the backyard being fenced, I love to go on walks and give all the snuggles! My schedule is very easy to move around and I am not tied to the computer all day, so running to give potty breaks at your home or take your fur baby for a walk is always a task I love to make time for!
“Karlee was great with Douglas! She was willing to take him for the day with just hours notice! Karlee sent pictures throughout the day to let me know how Douglas was doing. I would definitely recommend her and use her services again in the future.”
“Kayti took great care of Sutton for the day in her home. She shared great pictures during the day of Sutton playing in the yard with other pups. It made our busy day of soccer games and grad parties easier to enjoy knowing our puppy was being well cared for. Thanks, Kayti!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat in my home and love Dachshunds. We also have a lab mix who loves to play with all dogs one of the doxies loves all dogs as well. They are both puppies still. We live on 5 wooded acres, and have a separate fenced area to let the dogs play. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have also had a dog in my household. Dogs are more than just pets to me they are are family and I considered them my children. I will care for tour dogs as if they were my own and they will make a new friend while they stay over and play the weekend away! I am working for home, so I have plenty of time to attend to all the dogs needs, feeding, outside time, playing. I usually take my dogs to the dog park every morning for our mile walk and during the summer months we try to go to the lake for a swim a couple times a week. I have 2 fur babies, they are very playful and love all dogs. I treat all dogs as if they are my own, I love them all!
About: I have grown up with dogs of all kinds throughout my life, so being around animals has always been a natural part of who I am. While I currently don’t have a pet of my own, caring for others’ pets is incredibly fulfilling because it allows me to continue giving love and attention to animals while helping families feel confident their pets are in good hands. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I focus on providing dependable care, lots of attention, and clear communication with updates and photos so you always feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. I work from home full-time, so your pet will have lots of company, love and attention throughout the day—no long lonely hours here. I live in an apartment that has a dog park, and lots of nearby walking trails I go to daily. Since I don’t currently have a pet of my own, caring for others’ pets truly brings so much happiness into our home. I love creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I do everything I can to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in my care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Lake Francis Shores
Taylore is extremely easy to work with and communicates well! I wasn’t expecting full report from my pet’s day, but I loved seeing all of Taylore’s notes and photos. Lola was welcomed into the home with open arms and she didn’t even seem to want to leave when we picked her up. I have a very fragile dog and Taylore kept her safe throughout their adventures on the farm! Lola had a great time and we will definitely be using her again!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - East Lake Francis Shores
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 872 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across East Lake Francis Shores. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your East Lake Francis Shores commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 872 sitters in East Lake Francis Shores, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
