“This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. It was a great experience. Lots of updates and pics and they are treated like their own animals. Will book again.”
“I have nothing but great things to say about our experience with Ana and her family! She was great at giving me updates and photos of how things were going for my baby Arlo! I definitely recommend them and I will be using Ana and her family whenever I need someone to take care of Arlo again!”
“My dog had never been boarded anywhere and Morgan and Jennifer took wonderful care of her! They made sure she felt comfortable and had a great time. So many pictures were a wonderful treat.”
“My two dogs had a great stay with Shelby. Winnie loved her two daily walks and Nuggett loved to opt out of the walks and chill instead. They came home happy campers!”
“Katrina and Drew were amazing with our Poppy. It's the first time we have picked her up and she was hesitant to jump in the car to go home. We know she was well-loved and in good hands with them :)”
“Our 2 pups stayed for 3 nights and had their own mini vacation. Great communication and they had no issues with managing meds or a pain in the rear pup with loads of energy. Would definitely recommend; Rocky and Toby will be back!”
“Kelly did a great job watching my two toy Aussie’s! The dogs immediately got comfortable with Kelly and her two beautiful greyhounds. They loved the large fenced in grass yard— they were in dog heaven! Kelly sent photos and kept me posted on how my pups were doing. I so appreciated the updates since Kelly graciously took them at the last minute (due to a funeral in the family). I will definitely contact Kelly again— thank you!”
“Darian was amazing. We used her for a 2 week vacation and we are so grateful to have found her. We will definitely use her again. She taught our puppy how to walk on a leash, which he was struggling with before we dropped him off. We received daily updates, photos and videos, and never had to worry about him being cared for, loved on and played with.”
“I highly recommend Andrew! Our good boy Bear stayed for a week and we know he had a great vacation too playing with Gunner. Andrew was great communicating, flexible in pickup and drop-off times, and we loved the photos he sent. 10 stars!”
“I’m so grateful to have found Aish and her family! They take such great care of our dog, and it’s clear he’s happy and comfortable when he’s with them. It’s a huge relief for me to know he’s in such good hands while I travel. Thanks again ❤️❤️”
“Carine, Eric & Family were absolutely wonderful! They went above and beyond to accommodate our dog’s additional needs (high separation anxiety) and adjusted their schedules to ensure someone would always be with her during the duration of her stay. The kids were so sweet with her and she has the best time playing and then soaking up all of the extra snuggles once she was tired out. We received lots of updates and pictures throughout her stay, which we very much appreciated! I would HIGHLY recommend Carine & Eric and we will absolutely be booking with them again the next time we need someone to care for our dog!”
“Katie has watched our dog Wrigley 4 times now since June. He is 13 months old now, so still an energetic young dog. He LOVES Katie and her own dog and has adapted to being away from us very well in Katie’s care. I have total peace of mind and don’t hesitate to make plans to go places, which is liberating for the owner of a young dog. Excellent!!”
“Lisa & Drew and their young boys took excellent care of Buck. Lisa communicated above and beyond with updates on how Buck was acclimating to a new environment as well as cute pics of Buck playing with the boys. I highly recommend Lisa & Drew if you are looking for a trust worthy and responsible pet sitter for your pet.”
“Frank, Clarissa and their family took wonderful care of our dog, Bentley. He warmed up to them almost immediately during a short meet & greet, and from the the pictures during his stay, it was clear that he felt at home and was getting a lot of attention, play time & love during his stay. They’re also great communicators - they checked in with us, sent regular updates and responded quickly.”
“Cynthia was great, her fenced-in yard was beautiful and spacious. Her dogs are sweet and got along with mine just fine. They got to spend a lot of time outside too, which made me happy. Would definitely book her again”
“Chelsie was an awesome dog sitter. She watched our two dogs and sent many updates throughout their stay. She was also very accommodating to our schedule. We would definitely have her watch our dogs again!”
“Our beloved Australian shepherd was well-cared for by Steve and Diane. I am certain we missed him more than he missed us. Their care has made us much more comfortable with the idea of traveling more often to the places he cannot come.”
“Dee was great! So thoughtful about asking all the right questions leading up to our reservation, to ensure the best experience for our pup. I can't say enough about how she keep me posted through timely photos and updates. Grade A experience, highly recommend!”
“My dog Boba stayed with Vrushali for 3 days and she was amazing at caring for him. She was good with sending updates as well. Boba and their dog Teddy got along very well, he is also very sweet. I will be using her services again in the future.”

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 Heidelberg 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 Heidelberg.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Heidelberg 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.
