“We would highly recommend Katrina & Drew to watch your pup. We received regular communication and pictures. Most importantly our nervous pup came home happy and healthy. She clearly felt welcome and comfortable. Thank you for being a home away from home for Willow.”
“Lisa and Drew watched my two dogs for 5 days. They took very good care of them - they are both on medications and needed a little extra attention. The little boys also enjoyed them as well. They were easy to contact and quickly responded to me. I would recommend them to watch your pets! Definitely a five star review!!”
“Marill was wonderful to work with on a short notice need. She was patient and caring to our two dogs right from the get go and gave them the time they needed to feel comfortable in new surroundings. 100% will be using this service again and I can't thank her enough!”
“Robin is truly an animal whisper. She took such good care of my Daisy for a week. She was great at sending me daily updates with pictures and gave her extra snuggles. I would definitely recommend Robin and I will be using her again. She was very accommodating with our drop off times and pick up.”
“I typically book with a daycare center but due to the amount of time we would be gone, we feared he would suffer from anxiety and loneliness. So we decided to book with a home daycare to ensure he received more personal care. They did an awesome job with Jake. Seemingly, he was treated like their own with lots of cuddle time. They provided daily updates and included cute photos. They were flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely use them again.”
“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.”
“Larry and Laura were absolutely wonderful with our two energetic Labs! They were incredibly accommodating and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Their communication was fantastic—they sent plenty of pictures, kept us updated, and took the time to talk through how each of our pups was doing. It was clear that our dogs were well cared for and in great hands. We would absolutely trust Larry and Laura with them again and highly recommend them!”
“Palmer was well loved by Nessa & Jose and really enjoyed all the walks, playmates, and attention. He came home exhausted and sad to leave. They sent a ton of pictures and even video each day of his stay. Thanks so much for taking great care of Palmer.”
“Angela was so amazing for the more than two weeks Zeke was with her!! She sent me updates and photos everyday and was so quick to reply whenever I messaged! It felt amazing going away and knowing that he was safe and loved and well taken care of!”
“My dog Boba stayed with Vrushali for 3 days and she was amazing at caring for him. She was good with sending updates as well. Boba and their dog Teddy got along very well, he is also very sweet. I will be using her services again in the future.”
“Barb has watched both of our dogs on multiple occasions. She was communicative, prompt, and flexible each time we used her for dog sitting. We knew our dogs were in good hands, even our old pup who requires daily medicine. Would highly recommend Barb as a dog sitter.”
“Absolutely lovely and fantastic folks! Our dogs seemed to have it all - comforts, playtime, activity. They were also helpful with some medication during our dogs' stay. They were attentive, sent regular updates with pictures and videos, and quick to communicate when planning. Definitely recommended!”
“Alka and Rajeev took great care of our pets. They had great communication with us and took cute pictures assuring us that our pets were being taken care of. Highly recommend them!”
“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.”
“Andrew and the girls took really great care of my little buddy. I really appreciate that he was safe and well taken care of. I highly recommend Andrew and his girls to anyone.”
“I can't describe how happy I am that I found Lonni and Steve! I have a very hard time dropping off my chihuahua to be watched and the love that Lonni and Steve have for him puts me at ease. Their love and care for dogs is incredibly genuine and it shows. Rarely do I trust anyone with my dog and I was able to leave him with Lonni and Steve for 8 nights and was very comfortable that he was getting the absolute best care, attention and love. They watch out for his needs, make sure he is comfortable and even adjust their schedules around him. I'm so grateful that we found them and will continue to ask them to care for our little guy.”

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 Elko 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 Elko.
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.
You and your Elko 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.
