“Nothing but positive things to say. My dog Letty loved her vacation at Marie and Mark's. Having a very anxious dog, I wasn't sure how'd she'd do, but she quickly warmed up to their family and welcoming home. No question they gave Letty all the love and attention she needed. I greatly appreciated recieving the pictures and updates of how my girl was doing while on my vacation. Great communication :)”
“Extremely considerate and sent me updates and pictures of my cat! Consistently responded on time and made accommodations for my schedule change. Top tier cat boarders thanks again Elizabeth and Erik!”
“Every time they watch our dogs we know they are going to be cared for well and that makes going on vacation a lot easier. They send daily pictures and are so kind and caring. So lucky to have found them.”
“Anna took great care of our dog. First time using Rover and would highly recommend Anna! Cade was happy and hungry (which is a good sign!) when he came home. Anna is a great communicator and sends picture updates twice a day. Thank you Anna! We will definitely recommend and use your services again!”
“Katrina and her family were wonderful to our new small rescue poodle. They assured him he was safe and loved. I think he had fun at her home. She regularly updated us with fun pictures.”
“Luke and Rachel have great communication. My pup had some stomach issues and they asked (and I agreed) to feeding her chicken and rice. They bought the ingredients, and helped her to stabilize. I couldn’t ask for better care!”
“We never worry when Suki is with Abbie and her wonderful family! She is always loved and well taken care of. We get great pictures and updates along the way and flexibility with pick up and drop off times.”
“Karen and family took amazing care of our giant Newfoundland Nora. Spoiled her during her stay which was great to see. Pictures and updates daily showed how good of a time she had. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”
“Lisa was so great with our Conrad! We were in a pinch and needed someone to watch him overnight with not much notice and she took him in like he was her own pup. Wonderful first experience with Rover and especially with Lisa!”
“Lauren and James did such an amazing job with our dog while we were out of town for a week. They sent awesome updates every day and such cute pictures. Winston felt right at home with them and they loved him like their own. He probably had more fun with them than he does at home! He came back fulfilled and happy. We will absolutely work with Lauren and James again when we have a trip come up.”
“Kayla was fantastic with our dogs! She was consistent with updates, and made sure that our dogs were comfortable in every aspect of their stay. I highly recommend her!”
“We were looking for a special person to watch our two dogs while we were away. One of our dogs is insecure and the other has a lot of energy. We were so happy to find Beth! We wish we could give her 10 stars! She and her husband did such a great job with both pups. Beth was in regular communication and the pictures she sent told us everything we needed to know. The dogs looked so happy and comfortable. We are truly grateful for the wonderful care that was provided. A+++!!”
“Jordon and Melisa provided good updates while watching our dog for the weekend. The kids seemed excited to help care for Gaia. I'd definitely recommend them for a stay!”
“Sierra was so thoughtful and considerate, very easy to work with as a Rover home for our extended holiday weekend. We loved the daily pictures. Thank you so much, Sierra!”
“Jessica was the best! After a bit of a fiasco with another sitter, Jessica came through last minute and was a great back up. I will absolutely book her again. Our dog came home absolutely exhausted, but so happy, and we can't thank her enough for helping us out this weekend!”
“Danielle was great with our dog Sammy. She gave us morning and evening updates on how our friend was doing, along with multiple pictures. We could tell Sammy was well cared for with walks, and he was given the attention he needed. We felt she went above and beyond what is expected. The best way to explain it is that Danielle took care of our dog as if it were her own. I would highly recommend Danielle, and we will definitely look to book with her again. Brent”
“Our pup Hank came back happy and wagging his tail :) Cassandra sent an update and picture, which we greatly appreciated. We would love to use Cassandra again for our pup sitting needs!”
“The dogs loved both Alyssa and her husband and their new brother, Scamp! :) We loved Alyssa's communications and pictures and trusted her taking care of our fur babies. We will definitely bring the dogs back! Thank you!”

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 Franconia 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 Franconia.
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 Franconia 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.
