“Anne and her family were so kind to watch my pup Dune last minute after our original dog sitting plans for vacation fell through. We did an initial met/greet to ensure our dogs got along and Dune loved playing with the other pups. Communication with daily updates and photos was awesome! Kenneling overnight. We were so grateful for your flexiblity and help! Thank you all for taking such great care of my boy :)”
“My dog stayed while I was visiting friends in the area. Frances obtained appropriate information on the dog so I felt secure that she had the proper information. Frances sent photos periodically. My dog g s eked secure and happy while there.”
“As always, Tasha takes such great care of our doggy, Daisy! We receive lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay and she keeps us up-to-date on how Daisy is doing with the other friends there. We appreciate Tasha so much!”
“Our dogs came home exhausted and happy after their stay. 1 of our dogs can be a pain so an extra thanks for handling her for 2 full days while we had our wedding! Kaylee is the best!”
“Kailee took excellent care of Milo. He was loved and well cared for. She sent frequent photo updates during his stay and was fast to respond to any questions before and during his stay and was helpful and accommodating.”
“Wow, what can I say… Jill ( & Sunny :))was amazing with our 4 yr old yellow lab, Callie! She was so loving and all about making a great experience for Callie. Her home was perfect and such a nice setting back near a nice river with a large yard with a fenced in area as well. Our dog could use her doggy door (once she got the hang of it ;) )and go outside to the fenced in yard and play/potty/whatever ….as she needed. Jill was great about taking walks, letting her swim in the river at her property, having playtime and providing constant attention and love. And her dog Sunny is so loving and was a great playmate for Callie. :). Such a reassuring feeling to have her with Jill while we traveled. Knowing she was getting constant attention, love, care, exercise, and play. I will never use a kennel or doggy care center again as long as Jill is available, thanks Jill ! :-)”
“Terry and Chuckie took EXCELLENT care of Max during his stay. He needed additional care for his eye condition and they immediately stepped up to meet all of his needs. Terry sent several updates throughout the day which helped put this dog mom at ease. Looking forward to his next stay with them!”
“Alexandra did a perfect job sitting for my pet. She made my dog feel right at home, kept me updated throughout her stay, and was very accommodating and flexible. Would happily have my pet stay again!”
“Beth provides a welcoming home and we know our dog was well cared for on our trip. She was great with communication and flexible with drop off and pick up. We would not hesitate to book Beth again. Highly recommend!”
“Christine and her crew were incredible and did a great job. Thor came home exhausted and without any bad habits (begging from the table, attempting to get on furniture, etc). Great communication before and throughout the stay. Thor loved his time with Cornelius and is looking forward to his next visit.”
“Naomi and hubby were awesome with my Max! Even I was only gone two days, they kept me updated on how he was doing. It’s so obvious that they love and care for animals and their back yard is huge!! I hope they have availability next time I need someone for Max! 💜”
“Repeat customer here. Goose loves hanging out with Christina, Michael and the family! They take great care of Goose and always send regular updates so I never have to worry while I’m traveling for work.”
“Hachi was super excited to be back again! He’s already comfortable and being happily greeted by Lexi was wonderful. Pamela will love and care for your Fur baby. Hachi was happy to be back because he has so much fun there. Pamela captures your fur baby’s fun time and share those cute pictures with you. We will be back all the time now, since we found such a happy and loving place to board him when needed. Thank you Pamela!”
“My pup had some issues while boarding but Chelsea was great taking care of him while we were away and handled the situation professionally and lovingly. Thanks Chelsea!”
“Blue had a great time with Dale and his dogs. His communication with us was great from the start, sending updates everyday of his stay. Made us feel comfortable from the first meet and greet. Will be booking with him again!”
“Julie was a wonderful Rover host. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them and loved getting pictures of my pup every day. I definitely will be using them again and highly recommend. Thanks so much!!”
“My pups loved their weeklong stay with Janelle (and Kevin!)! Janelle went above and beyond with my somewhat “special needs” and raw fed dogs (a puppy and a CHF dog with a strict medication administration routine). Despite a week of nasty humid and stormy weather, Janelle managed to get them outside to play when it cleared up, but they were also content snuggling or napping. I was sent daily reports and pictures. My dogs usually take a bit to warm up to strangers, but this was not the case with Janelle- they were immediately comfortable and returned home happy and well fed. This is the second time with her and I won’t trust anyone else to care for them moving forward!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hopkins
My dog was so happy with Rachael. It was clear that she loves animals and understands them as soon as we met. She treated Nova like her own pet. Nova got to play with Rachael's dogs, and run around in a fenced in yard. She slept like a rock when we got home! We hope to use Rachael's services again when we travel!

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.
95% of sitters in Hopkins 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 Hopkins 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 Hopkins.
<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 Hopkins 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 MI 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.
