“This was our first Rover and at first we were apprehensive to book, however, Katrina and Drew did a great job taking care of our two dogs. We got to meet Katrina and Drew before booking and immediately knew our dogs would be in good hands. They are nice and easy going people which we naturally gravitated towards. While we were gone they sent us pictures and updates of the dogs. Would definitely recommend. We will use them again over a dog boarding place in a heartbeat.”
“Cindy and her daughter were very easy-going and flexible. The dogs settled in right away - I could tell they were all going to get along just fine! Will definitely request a stay with them in the future when needed.”
“She did an amazing job. Very flexible and allowed me to drop off and pick up any time. Must of had lots of play time with him because he had to sleep it off for next 2 days! Could definitely tell he enjoyed his stay!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Alecia and Todd made it a great experience! Their communication was great and we received updates throughout her stay. Our dog is getting older, so she sometimes needs a little extra love and attention, but Alicia and Todd made sure she was comfortable and happy throughout. Highly recommended!”
“My cockapoo, Buffy, has separation anxiety. I wanted to find a better option to boarding her other than a kennel. I was nervous about leaving her with someone neither of us knew. Buffy and I had a meet and greet with Shelley prior to the scheduled overnight stay. I immediately felt comfortable taking with Shelley about my concerns. Shelley answered my long list of questions with patience and grace. Buffy's recent overnight stay went extremely well. Shelley sent updates and pictures during the stay. I feel I have found Buffy a home away from home. Buffy will have someone that will be there for her around the clock when I can't be. Which means less stress for both of us. Thank you Shelley.”
“Katie was wonderful! Kylo came home happy and healthy. He had a wonderful time playing with Honey. We loved how Katie sent an update with a picture every day. We will definitely use Katie again in the future!”
“We are so lucky to have Trudy to take care of Sweetie Pie. SP perked her ears up and looking for Trudy and Trudy’s family and their dog when I mentioned their names! They took her for walks, letting her riding in the car, watching iPad, and most of all playing and talking to her, maybe just having discussions 😉. SP had truly wonderful stay with them. Trudy send pictures and told me what’s going on…. Thank you!!”
“So grateful to have these two wonderful people look after my baby! They always offer frequent updates and photos, so you know what your pet is up to all day long. That was my third time booking with them and I will continue to use them in the future. A+!”
“Care for Mia was great! I was able to drop off at an early morning hour (which isn’t always ideal) and I was able to pick up earlier than I thought I needed care for. I appreciate the flexibility and knowing Mia was cared for so well!”
“Julie and Ben took care of our Golden for four days. We had to change our plans at the last minute and they took our dog and helped us tremendously with giving her medication. They were so flexible, kind and caring and took such good care of our pup. They sent us daily updates and photos which was greatly appreciated. Our dog returned home happy. We would definitely reach out to them again! Thank you so much Julie & Ben!”
“Christy and Dennis are our go to for longer trips, they do such a great job with our pups and provide lots of updates on their daily activities! We love having our dogs stay with them!”
“This is the second time marine watches our babies and it was as great as the first time! I’m not worried while I’m away cause I know marine will take good care of them. Highly recommend!”
“We could not be happier having Ana & Michael care for our two dogs. We know they were well cared for, and we were kept informed about how well they adapted to Ana & Michael’s home. Knowing your pet is staying in a pet-loving home is such a wonderful feeling. Thank you Ana & Michael!”
“Cindy did a great job with Vinny! We did a meet and greet beforehand and Vinny got to know her other 2 dogs. He came back super tired and had fun hanging with some new friends!”
“Carine and her family are very caring and responsible! Our puppy had a great time playing with her kids. We brought our "potty bell" for him to use to tell them when he needed to go out, and Carine used that to seamlessly continue his potty training! Communication with her was very clear and prompt. Her house was very clean too! We're planning to bring our dog to her house again in the future!”
“Thanks Brooke! I was so glad you were able to take him on such short notice. He obviously had a great time with you and the pack. I think you were a hit with him, and I'll definitely be reaching out for the next boarding! ~bill”

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
94% of sitters in Hazelwood can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Hazelwood 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 Hazelwood.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hazelwood. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Hazelwood 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
