“Jennifer watched my dog several times and we always had a great experience! She is very communicative and my dog was so excited to see her every time. I would recommend Jennifer!”
“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!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Erin and Ramin! They took excellent care of our dog and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and messages, which made us feel connected and reassured that our pup was happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Erin is amazing with my two big high energy dogs! She is great at sending pictures and updates. Both my dogs came back today happy and sleepy. 😊 her two dogs could get along with anyone’s dogs too which was great for me being one of my dogs can be reactive. Nice big yard for your dogs to play in too and stay safe!”
“Aastha and Daniel are fantastic. Our 6-night dog boarding experience with them for our 2 dogs was absolutely perfect. We were thrilled to see our dogs well cared for, healthy, and very content. Aastha and Daniel proactively reached out with questions to ensure they understood our dogs’ habits and needs. They provided daily updates and pictures, and played fetch in their huge backyard. Our dogs came home happy and exhausted. We’ll definitely return when we need someone to watch the dogs again. We highly recommend Aastha and Daniel.”
“Andrew took great care of my dog Ruby. He clearly knows how to take care of your dog and makes sure to do slow introductions with any other dog he may be watching. I will definitely be using him again!”
“Indi had a great time and came back happy and content! It was an overall wonderful first stay for Indi and I would definitely rebook if I ever needed again. It says it all that when I showed up Indi shared her excitement both with me and Sheree so I knew then she must have had a great time. I would totally recommend her!”
“Caitlin is a very good sitter. She took care of my two old girls, who take medication and are both on special diets. I felt like they were very safe in Caitlin's care.”
“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!!!”
“This was the longest I'd left Broedy and was so grateful she was with Taylor and her crew! Not only was she safe and sound, but Taylor takes the best photos! Thank you!”
“Very responsive. Provided updates with pictures to show that my dog was happy. I appreciated the accommodation of my last-minute request to give my dog medicine, which isn't always an easy task.”
“Myria was a great dog sitter. She is very friendly/ communicates well. She watched my 9 month old puppy for 10 days and I felt very comfortable leaving her with Myria and her family. I highly recommend her.”
“Kevin and Caitlin were amazing sitters! They sent pictures and videos frequently and welcomed Winston into their family. We will definitely use them again if available!”
“Alvin had a fabulous time with Elsa and Nick. He learned how to go down stairs and jump onto the sofa. After 2 years I have never been able to teach hi. To see him happily descending stairs was a wonderful shock. It was wonderful to receive pictures, videos and updates daily. Alvin has only stayed away from me twice, and often ignores my visitors. So seeing how much he enjoyed his one on one pampering by Elsa and Nick was wonderful. I will be booking a date in May. Thanks for taking such wonderful care of him.”
“Lori was amazing! She made Nipsey feel like a part of the family! She updated me everyday and sent pictures of Nipsey. Nipsey definitely enjoyed himself and we will most certainly book her again!”
“Catherine is amazing! She was super responsive & flexible with a last minute change in schedule, administered antibiotics while we were away, and we feel totally comfortable leaving our pup in her care.”
“Susan was fabulous with my Koda. She provided daily updates and pictures and Koda came home happy and tuckered out from all the fun. I would highly recommend Susan for your fur baby.”
“Kira is an absolutely wonderful; I am so glad I found her! She took excellent care of my puppy and was always looking out for her. She takes incredible photos and shared them with me frequently, which I really appreciated. She was prompt and easily accessible to correspond with and I appreciated her flexibility. My puppy loved her and her dogs and was comfortable staying with her for daycare and for boarding. I highly recommend Kira!”
“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!”

Jordan was truly amazing with Mojo. Jordan sent photos and messages updating us daily. We felt very comfortable and didn’t have to worry about at all. Mojo is a senior boxer and can have some quirks. Mojo has some medications that he takes and Jordan administered them perfectly. Jordan was responsive, friendly and connected with Mojo. We would recommend Jordan for sure.
From the moment I submitted a booking a request, Rob and his wife were easy to get in touch with and very friendly. My dog Buckie loved his time at their house, drop off and pick up were extremely easy. I couldn't have been happier with using them the weekend I was in Minneapolis.
Korina and Jerell were super nice and very easy to work with. Any question I had I received a response at a reasonable time. Additionally they responded to my request only a couple days beforehand which was a lifesaver. They also gave me updates and photos of my puppy Milo! I would rebook again in the future
Amazing couple who loved up our fluffy pup while we were away. Whiskey had a great time hanging out in the backyard, protecting their home from squirrels, and convincing them that he needs more snuggles. All the photos they sent were great and kept my kiddos happy knowing their pup was having fun!
Jessie has given nothing but the best care to our dog, Blu. She is so responsive, reliable and I never have to worry about Blu having a great time while staying with Jessie and her family. We have used her multiple times (she’s even saved us when we have needed last minute care) and we will continue to use her in the future for any dog sitting needs. She even sends a sweet little report card home after each stay so you know how your fur babies did during their visit. Highly recommend Jessie and her family if you’re looking for amazing care for your pets in the area!
Promise was great with my dogs! She sent lots of pictures and video updates throughout their stay, which I really appreciated. It looked like they had a great time exploring her backyard and getting plenty of attention. She was easy to communicate with, and I felt like my dogs were in good hands. I’d definitely book with her again!
Annalise and her family make our pup feel like part of their family. She took great care to not have our pup outside too long in the heat and smoke and watched that she was eating and drinking well in spite of the weather. Our pup loves running around their big back yard and also following and snuggling with Annalise and her son. We look forward to bringing our pup back in September.

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.

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.
