“Jana took great care of our shih tzu. It is obvious that she cares about dogs and it was a comfort knowing she was watching our dog while we were on vacation. We will definitely request her petsitting services again in the future.”
“This was the first time Dipper has stayed with William. She did very well. William is very kind and this was reflected in Dippers behavior when I picked her up-relaxed, tail wagging, as if she'd come from a mini-vacation. Great communication and plenty of pictures too!”
“Maya had an excellent weekend stay with Leigh. Leigh provided regular updates and took Maya on a long walk each day with her two Corgis. Leigh was also very flexible and accommodating when our return flight to Minneapolis was delayed by over 5 hours. We would definitely use Leigh again.”
“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“Frank and Clarissa were amazing. They sent us pictures, let us know how our dog was doing and kept us at ease. Our dog can be a little shy when he first meets people and they made him feel like part of their family. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t be more grateful for Emily! I booked her last minute, and she went above and beyond in every way. She walked my dog daily, sent tons of updates and photos, and truly treated my dog like her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in such caring hands. I will absolutely be booking with her again—anyone would be lucky to have Emily watch their dogs!”
“Unfortunately my dog had some stomach issues ☹️ during his stay but Abigail handled it brilliantly making him chicken and rice and checking in with me. ❤️. Looking forward to rebooking with Abigail.”
“Absolutely stellar experience with boarding my dog! I could tell immediately by the questions that were asked before the stay that Hyeyoon was going to take great care of my dog. I got regular updates while I was on vacation and always got prompt responses when arranging pick up. Highly recommend!”
“Kiirsten was a great communicator before and during her care of my old, blind dog. I was confident that the dog was in a good place, which made my vacation stress free. Easy drop off and pick up. The experience couldn't have been better.”
“Ashley took such great care of our fur baby Ginger, she sent us photos everyday of them walking, going to the park, hanging out, it was really nice hearing and seeing how she was doing while we were away. I would highly recommend Ashley, we’ll definitely be using her again.”

I greatly appreciated Manami being able to take Judy on short notice and was easy to work with in terms of drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hopkins
Cristina and her family were wonderful. Confident from the moment we communicated that my doggie would be well taken care for. He stayed at their place for five days and we received constant communication and pictures/ videos. Classic wondering if our dog loves it more at Cristina’s house than ours! Will be asking her again to watch our dood.
Alex is so sweet and wonderful! She took care of our beloved Ollie for two weeks while we were away on vacation, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Alex treated Ollie like he was her own and kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and adorable photos. I highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter. Your pets will be loved and cared for just like family!
Abigail was so wonderful and took amazing care of my (high maintenance) little terrier while I was out of town for a week. He got lots of attention and walks, and the clearly bonded. They clearly bonded and he had a great time. She even made a sweet care package for him! I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Sue was a wonderful caretaker for our dog Iggy!! Daily updates with a plethora of photos, she did all she could to help us feel comfortable and confident during our 6 days away. With enthusiasm- and without qualification!!- we recommend “Auntie Sue” as a communicative, responsible, and Loving canine caregiver!!!!
Katherine was such a saint with our mini Goldendoodle, Kobe, during his stay with her for a week. She took such good care of him and provided frequent communication and pictures. Katherine helped problem solve a few potty issues Kobe had, too. He had a great time with her pup, as well. I would highly recommend Katherine.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Hopkins sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Hopkins landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
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.
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 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.
