“Cassandra, Eric, and their kids were so sweet with our dog. They sent us daily photos and updates about his activities. We would definitely book them again.”

“Brenna was super confident about taking care of my slow to warm up dog and I felt very reassured that he would be in good hands. She was patient with him and helped him eat which he can be hesitant to do, and send lots of pictures of him lounging at her house. He was very relaxed when I picked him up! Would definitely book again and I recommend Brenna for anxious dogs.”

“Olive didn’t want to leave Vanessa and Andrew (& the kids)! She seemed to have a very good time and found a good routine. They sent daily pics when I asked for them. All went great!! Thanks so much! I had a lot of anxiety but feel so much better now knowing she’s in good hands.”

“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”

“I always worry when I leave Brandy somewhere and I can’t be with her. I had ZERO worries with Diana! She was also very accommodating with a last minute change. I received pictures periodically to see how Brandy was doing which was very nice as well. I will definitely be contacting Diana in the future!”

“Beth was great to work with. I have a high anxiety dog and it went much better than I hoped. Beth was calm and reassured me it would be fine and it was! It was nice to be able to enjoy my vacation and not spend it worrying about our dog.”

“We loved booking with Rosemarie and Gerald! They were absolutely wonderful and sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout our dogs visit. They navigated unexpected challenges with ease and are clearly very passionate about caring for animals. We hope to book again!”

“Kim and John were great! It was our first time leaving our puppy somewhere while we were out of town and we could not be happier that we found them. Axel had a blast, we got plenty of updates (which we greatly appreciate) and he was very well taken care of :)”

“Brittany was great! I picked up Willie after staying at Brittany’s for the weekend while we were out of town. He was happy and tired, after playing with doggie friends, enjoying her fenced backyard, and getting snuggle time. I’ll gladly use Brittany again!”

“Manami was fantastic and really came through! I got very sick on my trip and was not able to fly home, but she was able to watch my cat until I was well enough to fly home. I appreciated her flexibility and tons of pictures!”

“John and Gretchen love Kirby as if he was their own pup! This visit he had a skin allergy flare up and they took excellent care of him, delivering his meds with love. Thanks again!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Tracy. I was genuinely so nervous boarding my dogs for the first time, and from the very beginning she made me feel completely at ease. She was warm, patient, reassuring, and so communicative the entire time. What really stood out to me is how naturally comfortable my dogs were with her. You can tell she truly understands animals and cares about them like they’re her own. She sent updates and photos, answered my anxious first-time-boarder questions with so much kindness, and made the whole experience feel safe and personal. Finding someone you can actually trust with your dogs is huge, and Tracy is absolutely that person. I’m so grateful we found her and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”

“Sarah & Ryan are absolutely exceptional in the way they take care and give so much love & attention to their pet guest :). We truly appreciate you accommodating our last-minute flight delays and keeping Tofu for an extra day. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands. Tofu clearly had a wonderful time with Julep! It's heartwarming to hear how well they got along. Your updates and photos were a great comfort to us, and we loved seeing how happy Tofu was. Thank you again for going above and beyond. We will definitely be reaching out to you again when we need dog-sitting services in the future.”

“Great experience, as always! Pictures and check in everyday, which this dog mama loves. My flight was delayed a couple hours and Andrew was willing tow too with me to accommodate my schedule. Always appreciated.”

“Thank you so much Alicia and Simon for taking care of Milo. it looks like he had great time at your house playing with Teddy and Daisy. Thank you so much for taking him out for a walk daily. Milo enjoys outside walk. Mamatha”

“Kelly and Zac were great! We received daily pupdates with pictures and a blurb about his adventures. They worked with us on a last minute booking and were quick to respond. As a small dog mom, we are always cautious of where our little guy goes for boarding, and this was the perfect set up for him. He had fun playing with their dogs, chasing chipmunks, and helping in the kitchen. Thank you both, from us and Dr. Ducky!”

“Sylvia did a wonderful job with my cat, Lucky. She has a lot of experience and was great to work with. Communication was excellent and the daily pictures were awesome! Definately will use again! Thanks!!!”

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Excelsior 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 2,639 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Excelsior. About 92% of Excelsior 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.

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 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.
