“Hollie was AMAZING! My girlfriend and I have a 60 lb lab mix who's only ever been comfortable in the care of my parents or really close friends. He has a bit of separation anxiety and takes a while to get used to new surroundings. He also takes medication and can be a handful when it comes to taking walks. We tried him previously at a boarding service, but they never gave us any updates. So we were rightfully worried while we were away. When we picked him up from said service, he looked distraught/anxious. When we asked how he was, they just said he was sweet without any details of his stay or any off behaviors. The service also didn't use the portioned food we brought and forgot to pack his meds in the care bag we provided. We left our little guy with Hollie for 6 nights, and there was a world of difference. Firstly, Hollie was generous enough to host a meet and greet so our dog could get comfortable with her and her home. Hollie was very accommodating to our requests and quickly helped our guy settle in. She was super consistent with updates and went out of her way to make the entire experience wonderful for both us and our dog. Hollie really cares and will go that extra mile for any furry friend under her supervision. We'll gladly seek out Hollie again for boarding and can't begin to recommend her enough!!”
“Robert did a great job with my geriatric dog. He got her to go for a longer walk than we've been able to lately, and was patient with her enough to accomplish that. He also sent lots of great pictures of how she was doing. Thank you for the great care!”
“This was our first Rover experience and I couldn't be happier! We had open communication and photos the whole time. Carrie was great for Burt and even made special accomodations. Highly recommend!!”
“I am so happy I found Trudy. She took the best of my senior dog. He was really spoiled in her care. I had not had to have someone take care of my dog other than family members in a long time. My apprehension was gone right away. Trudy sent me a picture of my dog on the first day after I had dropped him off. I knew he was receiving the best care. She sent pictures throughout his stay. I highly recommend Trudy. I am so thankful my dog was with Trudy when I was away.”
“My 4 1/2 year old pup had her first experience overnight other than with me. Right at the meet and greet I knew they were the perfect fit! They sent me pictures and videos while they had her but I was off the grid so didn’t get them right away. I didn’t worry about anything as I felt completely comfortable with them taking care of my girl. . I will have them watch my nakia many times to come. You could not ask for a more loving home to watch your puppy! Thanks Nicole and David for being so awesome!!”
“Kaylee and her whole family were amazing! I needed help in a pinch over spring break, and she came through and took such great care of my dog, Willow, for the entire week. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Lan, Lucy and family were wonderful with Mochi! Lan is a kind and experienced dog caregiver. We were gone for about a week. Mochi came home happy, tired, and clean! Thank you so very much.”
“Kirsten is a warm, lovely person who gave us great updates and excellent care for our dogs while we were out of town! They loved to play with her dog in the backyard!”
“Zema loves going to Bethany's house! They spend ample time together going for walks & playing in the yard (weather permitted) and snuggles on the couch. Zema always comes home happy and tired 🙂”
“John and Teri were fantastic! They took amazing care of our quirky doodle, and we really appreciate their kindness, communication, pictures, and care! Would recommend them to any and all and will totally use them again! Thank you for giving us peace of mind while we were away! Bonus was a huge fenced in yard to let the 🐕 roam!”
“Thankful Karen and Aaron could help us with Leo. They were nice to let us do a meet and greet which went well. When I dropped Leo off he wanted to stay with me—- but later in the day they texted that he was fine and had warmed up to Aaron. Things seemed to go well and when I picked Leo up he was very clearly happy. Will definitely be using them again!”
“Perla took wonderful care of my cat for 3 days. She followed all of my feeding instructions carefully and kept me updated throughout his stay. She regularly sent me photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind. One of the things that stood out the most was seeing videos of my cat sleeping next to her daughter. To me, that showed that he felt comfortable, safe, and secure in their home. It was clear that Perla treated him with kindness and care. I highly recommend Perla to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such good care of my kitty!”
“Jenny and Mark took excellent care of our dog over 2 weeks. Communication was easy and we received regular updates. I would definitely have them dog sit again!”
“I’m so grateful that we found Aish and her family to care for our Bailey while we traveled. She’s extremely responsive to messages and we loved getting pictures of Bailey while we were gone. We will definitely be returning in the future , knowing that our pup is in good hands while we are away.”
“Heather took great care of my doggo over the holidays. I know he had a blast from the photos she sent. Happy to know my dog has a new furry friend to hang out with.”
“They were amazing with Cooper! I feel so comfortable leaving him with them again. You can tell they really love dogs and they take care of their boarders like their own ❤️”
“Brenda & family were amazing with Aspen. Aspen felt right at home and happy. I received regular updates and knew she was well taken care of. Highly recommended.”

Stacy and Michael are wonderful hosts! Their dog, Nina, is such a sweet girl and was great company for my Lyra! They watched her over the 4th of July weekend knowing my Lyra is a bit of a scardy pup. (She gets pretty spooked by fireworks and likes to go hide). They showed a lot of patience and kindness with her, even helped her get unstuck from one of her hiding places. When I arrived Lyra up, they were actively holding and comforting her. These two really care about their guests and I'm not going to hesitate to bring Lyra by again!
Hollie has been so welcoming, responsive, and understanding of our dog's needs. Our dog is sometimes anxious staying in new places, but she settled into Hollie's place very quickly. Hollie was reassuring and sent pictures throughout her short stay. We look forward to our dog staying with her again!
Paid Lynn tip money when we picked our baby up instead of through this app. Loved all the photos Lynn sent along with the updates throughout our dogs stay. We felt very comfortable knowing the outdoors were completely fenced in. And, if needed, the ability to separate dogs in the house with baby gates. Our puppy seemed to enjoy her stay with naps, playtime and her meals.
Leo had a great stay with Ashley and her family. We did a meet and greet and her dogs allowed Leo to be with them immediately. As best I can tell Leo loved his time there- he came home and was his ordinary self. Ashley had noticed him shaking at one point during his stay and then that it was raining- so Leo needed his med to calm down. It seemed like Leo was in a home were he was loved and accepted and comfortable. We are glad to have found Ashley.

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 Inver Grove Heights 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 Inver Grove Heights.
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 Inver Grove Heights 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.
