“Alexandra did a wonderful job. Very responsive to text messages and provided daily updates. Her residence has plenty of space for dogs to run and have fun. Definitely going to book with her next time we need a sitter. I felt very comfortable that our dog was in good hands.”
“Nothing but positive things to say. My dog Letty loved her vacation at Marie and Mark's. Having a very anxious dog, I wasn't sure how'd she'd do, but she quickly warmed up to their family and welcoming home. No question they gave Letty all the love and attention she needed. I greatly appreciated recieving the pictures and updates of how my girl was doing while on my vacation. Great communication :)”
“This was my first experience with River, and I couldn’t have been happier with this provider. Princesa provided a loving, caring experience for our Molly. I could tell our dog loved her visit! Thank you!!!”
“Anna gave exceptional care for our 2 large Goldens! I received daily updates and photos of my happy and comfortable boys !!This was not their first stay with Anna as she is the only sitter I use!! We all love her!!”
“Brandy and Chad do a fantastic job with our small dog Patty. Patty can be nervous, tense, and anxious around strangers, but they've done a wonderful job to make her feel like she is at home. We highly recommend them for your dog sitting!”
“We will definitely use Michelle again. She was Great with Winnie. We felt so at ease with the daily pictures and updates that Michelle sent us. We knew Winnie was in good hands. Great job Michelle.”
“Becky was amazing!! Our corgi is very timid and shy. She was so gentle and caring with her, making sure to give her time to warm up and allowing her space to roam. She sent me daily pictures and update and made me feel at ease. If we weren’t moving out of state, I would use her again and again!!!!”
“Our dog Leena has a great time and was exhausted when we picked her up. Alisha and Cameron and their family sent a lot of updates and clearly spent a lot of time the pups. Would definitely recommend and plan to send our dog to visit them again in the future!”
“There aren't enough words to describe how awesome Rebekah and her family were to our little pup while we were on vacation. From the daily updates, to making her feel like a part of their family, they truly were amazing every step of the way. Would highly recommend them to anyone needing boarding”
“Tammy and John took great care of Harry. I hate to have to leave him behind, but knowing he is well taken care of puts my mind at ease. He was a tired pup when we picked him from having fun play time in their huge fenced in backyard. I love that they snuggled too! We will be back!!”
“This was our first time using Rover. Lisa was amazing!! She was quick to respond to any questions I had and sent pictures and updates during Daisy's stay. I will for sure reach out to Lisa again!!”
“Patty and Patrick have been absolutely wonderful with Lola. Before her stay, I reached out to let them know that she was dealing with a CCL injury. They had no hesitation in taking her and immediately reassured me that they were comfortable providing the extra care and attention she needed with this injury (and her existing allergies). Throughout her stay, they truly doted on Lola, making sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. What stands out most is how genuinely concerned they are for her well-being. They always take special care of her and treat her as if she were their own. Knowing Lola is with Patty and Patrick gives ‘e tremendous peace of mind. Their kindness, compassion, and attentiveness are evident in everything they do.”
“Jacky and her family were great! They were able to accommodate a last minute request and made us feel very comfortable. This was our first experience using Rover and we are so happy we gave it a try. Jacky was very sweet, responsive, and sent great pictures and videos. Our pup had a great time and seemed so comfortable and happy. We will definitely use Jacky for future pet care needs!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Jackie was so great! Our dog, Josie, stayed with her and her family for two nights. Her two dogs played well with her as well as her sweet kids. She gave timely updates and sent photos to assure us everything was going well. Josie had a wonderful time and I’d highly recommend Jackie!”

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 Kost 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 Kost.
<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 Kost 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.
