About: Growing up we had a few dogs. We owned a black lab, German Shepard, and German short haired pointer. Our family loved our dogs! In my adult life we haven’t owned our own dog, but we look forward to be being dog parents someday soon! We have also cared for family members & friends dogs, including a Huskie, Border Collie, and golden retriever. I’ve been wanting to get into pet care for a few years, I just haven’t had the space for it. We bought a house with a backyard that is perfect for doing so & now we’re going for it! I work full time at home & my wife Emily is a stay at home mom, while she’s fishing her masters degree. Between us we can easily give your pet the attention/time they deserve while they are away from you. We have a nice size backyard (no fence), along with plenty of room inside to move around and play. We have the flexibility to go on walks whenever they need & we are open to caring for all ages of pets as well as any energy level! We will meet them where they are at. The only pet we have is Merlin our cat. He is timid initially meeting new friends, but adjusts and does just fine once acquainted.
About: I’ve owned multiple dogs throughout my life and we absolutely adore meeting new animals! My dog is super friendly and loves playing with other animals as well :) I am currently working from home full time and have my 2 year old daughter with me. We love playing and running around during the day + snuggling at night! We live in a townhouse and we do have a fenced outside area and a decent sized inside to run both upstairs and downstairs. We often take our cuties to dog parks as well! We would love to meet your fur babies! I work full remote for my job so we’re basically home 24/7 unless we run errands, go grocery shopping or go get take out! So your baby will not be left alone for long periods of time, the perks of working at home in your pjs is snuggling up with your babies by our side! We have one dog named Ace, he’s super friendly and loves playing with other dogs. We have an outside fenced area and plenty of room inside to play. We also offer lots of treatos and toys for the best doggos :)

“I am so grateful for Marianne! I was in a bind and needed somewhere for my dog to stay while traveling through and desperately reached out to her at almost midnight the night before needing service and she was so wonderful to take my little pup for a few hours while I had some work meetings. JUNO was very happy to meet her and went right up to her when we pulled in the driveway. She took great care of Juno and had excellent and speedy communication. Highly recommend her and will be using her again next time I’m in the area!”

I currently work full time but am available on the weekends, holidays, and certain weekdays. We go on walks and visit the dog park daily. I have a big fenced in backyard and 1 fur baby that loves making friends and playing with other dogs. We enjoy games of fetch and tug-o-war and do light training.
About: Growing up my mothe raised German shepherd puppies and wolf puppies. There isn't a time I can remember not having one! After moving out I adopted a golden retriever mix and later took in a Rottweiler mastiff mix. Lots of experience in walking, training, bathing, and lots of other things when it comes to dogs! Over the years I've had quite a few cats and am able to take care of there needs! I'm currently a sahm with a 2 year old and a 2 month old.. I've been trying to find something I can do that I love while home with them! They have grown up around both cats and dogs and know how to behave with them.

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 Fergus Falls 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, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.
To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "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.
