“I booked a weekend stay for my dog Dewey with Parker. She was friendly, welcoming, and did great with keeping me updated on how things were going through frequent texts and pictures. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Mikayla was fantastic - she communicated quickly and easily, and provided thoughtful and detailed updates on our dog while we were gone. She is a real pro, and we would be happy to use her again!”
“Alexis is super sweet! Karl absolutely loved his time at their house! He played with their dog and was having the time of his life! I will absolutely book with them again!”
“Very nice, loving family - your pets will be happy and well taken care of. We felt very safe leaving our 14 year old bospin Bailey with Tara’s family, and received numerous updates with photos and videos while we were traveling. We’ll book again!”
“My dog had a blast at Marnie and Jeffery's place! Iggy loved their dogs and family members. Marnie sent me photos every day and I felt great knowing she was well-cared for. This was the first time I used Rover and I was a little anxious, but this was an excellent experience. I would definitely go with this family again, they're awesome!”
“Jessie had the best time!! Amber sent updated photos on a routine basis, let me know how Jesse was doing, and was great at responding. She and her husband are super great! 10/10 will be using again. :)”
“Lisa was a wonderful human to Zeke while I got out of town for a weekend. She sent me a note and a pic of Zeke each day. He was very relaxed. I would say Lisa provided a home away from home. She will be my first call when I need extended care for him again.”
“Justin took my golden retriever over night and was super accommodating to my last minute booking. Communicated well. Will definitely be using again when we travel through Sioux Falls!”
“We left our dog and cat for about 4 days for a vacation out of town, and when we got back, they seemed to miss the sitter more than they missed us. 5 Stars! We received daily updates about their care along with photos of our babies. Ashley was wonderful caring for them, giving us peace of mind while we enjoyed our vacation. We are already considering booking again for our next trip!”
“Annette is the best!! She provided daily updates with pictures/ videos and took care of our dog like he was her own- we are so grateful to have found her! She’s an excellent caretaker and we would highly recommend her!”
“They were super kind and approachable. We knew within a couple of minutes of meeting them that our kitties were in good hands. They kept us updated with how things were going and sent many pictures. We could see along the way that they didn't just do the basics for care, but also interacted with them as if they were there own pets. It was a great experience and we had no worries whatsoever.”
“Rachel and her family did great with my little one. She updated me every day with pictures and videos and a complete report of each day. They welcome Coco as one more of their family and he received lot of attention and care during the stay. I totally recommend them and definitely I will book again with her.”
“We had an excellent experience with Jordan. She was flexible, friendly, and responsive. Our dog was well cared for, we received daily texts and photos, and we will definitely contact her again when we need to board our dog.”
About: Ive been pet sitting for numerous years as well as growing up caring for and loving many, many family pets! I throughly enjoy long walks so your pup will have the best care with me. Im here for all the walks, snuggles, and zoomies! My 8 year old daughter is also an animal lover and willing to play and cuddle any and all animals, including reptiles! Im currently working at home part time so I am very available to cuddle your pet, take them on long walks, and get all their zoomies out. As well as pet sitting overnight. My daughter is in the 3rd grade so I need my time taken up while she's at school. I have a small side yard at my town home and a SUV to fit a crate in if need be. I am willing to travel out of town for care and drive farther. I don't mind weird hours just as long as I get a heads up! My daughter is an animal lover so if your pet likes kids it is even better.
“Loved having a place to drop our dog off with a few other dogs that are already comfortable in the space. Bobbi also did a great job keeping us updated and sharing lots of pictures! Definitely gave us more peace of mind with leaving our fur-baby behind.”
“My puppy had a great time with Samantha and Braden! She was excited at drop-off and happy and tired at pickup. They sent photos/updates while our dog was in their care. Kept things easy for us!”

Lauren is the BEST! She went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure our senior dog had the best care possible.Our Molly is quite anxious and always goes on hunger strike when we leave town…. Not with Lauren! For the first time ever she ate every meal and clearly felt right at home with Lauren. Highly recommend!
So caring! Thank you so much to Mikayla and family for taking Mushka short notice and ill prepared!! I really, really got the feeling that this family truly care about dogs.. They only watched our dog for one day and they were sincerely so very caring! Thank you so much!!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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 SD 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.
