“Mazzie had a great stay with Jennifer! She loved her like Mazzie was her own dog. She messaged us with updates several times during the week and thanked us for allowing her to love Mazzie! ❤️”
“Our pup fit right in to Annalise's family and had a great time. Annalise is very responsive, flexible, experienced with dogs, and delightful ! She took especially good care of our pup during a heat wave. Her large fenced yard is perfect for our pup to explore and play with her pup. We will definitely come again!”
“Amanda was wonderful caring for our senior dog. She kept us updated with photos and was really quick to respond if we had questions or vice versa during our pets day with her. 10 out of 10!”
“Wow. What can I say. We were blown away by Emily’s kindness. She is the ultimate dog mom, sweet and caring. We took the longest trip we’ve ever taken away from our pup (miniature dachshund). Emily set up a meet and greet so our pup could meet her lovely dogs. Emily asked a ton of questions to get to know our dog. Which made me feel so much better. The meet & greet went great and meeting Emily put all my fears of leaving our pup aside. I knew our pup would be well loved and cared for and boy was she ever! We received daily updates, photos and videos. It was so nice to see her while we were so far away. Knowing she was being spoiled while we were across the world made our trip that much more enjoyable. As you all know, leaving a pup is like leaving a child. I never once worried about her. If you are looking for a loving, caring sitter for your pup, Emily is your gal. We plan to use her for our dog sitter as long as she’s willing. We are so lucky we found her!! Thank you so much, Emily!!!”
“Sarah was very active and communicated well with me answering my questions and concerns. She was able to accommodate and accept my last minute request. Her family was also very friendly and helped us to watch our dog Enzo!! I highly recommend booking with Sarah.”
“Nickolai was very communicative and responsive. We received pictures of our girl and updates throughout her stay with Nickolai. The home has a very large fenced-in backyard which our dog enjoyed immensely. We mentioned that our dog is accustomed to going on walks and Nickolai was kind enough to take her out for walks around the neighborhood.”
“Kira was great! We got regular (and truly wonderful!) photo updates and it was clear Ollie was having a great time. When we picked him up, he almost didn't want to leave! We would definitely use Kira's services again!”
“Excellent communication and was flexible when we had travel challenges. Our St Bernard had an excellent stay. Lots of photos showing us all the fun she was having!”
“Elsa and Nick are so kind and caring. I felt very confident that Jasper was being well-cared for and doted on while he was with them. I had a flight hiccup and Elsa spent a lot of time communicating with me to figure out a good solution. She's so patient and kind. I highly recommend!”
“Tori was well taken care of during her stay at Susie’s. Susie is delightful and enjoys keeping dogs. You can see by her enthusiasm and sense of pride in her care. Definitely will use her again.”
“Allie was excellent! We had a fabulous experience with her. It was our puppy's first time away from us and home and we could tell he was loved and well taken care of. We will definitely book with Allie again”
“Winnie always has the best time with Kiirsten! Winnie cries with excitement when we get close enough to Kiirsten’s house for her to know where we’re going. Kiirsten is wonderful to work with and can’t wait to use her again!”
“First experience Maddie has had with boarding and it couldn’t have gone any better! Thank you for your patience with my girl and getting her comfortable prior to the booking.”
“This is Ruby's second stay with Sheree and it was great. She was well cared for and loved. What more could we want. Ruby's actually been a little pouty since she got home. I think she wants to go back.”
“McFly had a wonderful time staying with Jennifer and her pup, Harlow. Our dogs got along great, as evidenced by the pupdates we received, and McFly seemed right at home when we went to pick him up after four nights. We will definitely utilize Jennifer's services again in the future!”
“Leah was fantastic and Mazzie had a great weekend with her. Lenny and Mazzie have many similar traits so they got along very well. Leah kept in touch with me throughout her weekend stay with messages and pictures. We will definitely use her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Golden Valley
Booking with Renae was a wonderful family affair! Lars was loved on and treated to a trip ‘up north’ and even a boat ride. Daughter said at pick up that Lars was her favorite boarder ever! He was happy when we picked him up and I think he was very comfortable during his stay. He is a rescue that we haven’t had for very long, so I was a bit anxious leaving him. I’m glad I found Renae and her family!
Our dog, Lucy, was immediately comfortable at Timmothy’s home and around his pets. He communicated well throughout the process, offering to meet ahead of time, shared photos while we were away, and coordinated with a family member for pickup. It’s a relief to have a trusted dog sitter and we are already planning to rebook. Thank you!
Bryan G cuidó de mi perrita Tita de una forma excelente. Fue muy atento, responsable y cariñoso con ella desde el primer momento. Me mantuvo informada durante todo el tiempo, lo que me dio mucha tranquilidad. Tita estuvo feliz, bien cuidada y se notaba que recibió mucho cariño. Sin duda volvería a confiar en Bryan y lo recomiendo a cualquiera que busque a alguien de confianza para cuidar a su mascota.
Aastha and Dan were phenomenal. Our dog gets very anxious at drop-off, and they went above and beyond to ease his transition and make him feel at home. Aastha sent many pictures and messages throughout each day and they were incredibly considerate and attentive to our dog, especially over Fourth of July fireworks. We weren't sure if he would want to come home, he was having such fun with Aastha and Dan! Highly recommend -- they will be our first choice for boarding in the future.
This was Poppy’s second time staying with Amanda and she had an amazing time. Amanda took Poppy on lots of adventures and shared photos throughout the weekend — it was fun to follow along while we were traveling. Poppy had a blast and will definitely be staying with Amanda again in the future :)
Jaime was great with my two large dogs for an extended stay, even with some special feeding instructions and anxiety issues. She sent so many wonderful pictures and let me know how they were doing the whole time. It was a huge comfort to our family leaving our fur kids with someone who clearly cares for her clients like they were her own. She even made adjustments to her yard to make sure they were extra safe and contained!
My pup Lucy was ambivalent about seeing me when I picked her up - probably because I am boring in comparison to Justin! He took her for walks in the woods and allowed her to be an adventure dog. Justin was very good about communicating with me and sending pictures. I would definitely rebook with him next time I need a pet sitter.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Golden Valley on Rover is $39.59 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 2,756 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Golden Valley. About 92% of Golden Valley 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.
