“Anna is an amazing doggie host! She kept us updated with pictures and comments of our dog Rosie during our vacation. Her home and yard are very accommodating and Anna keeps her home super clean and organized which gave me a peace of mind knowing my dog wouldn’t get into anything. I could tell from pictures that Rosie was very happy. Anna gets an A+ from Rosie and our family! We would definitely chose Anna again!”
“Mika and Andrew are great. It’s so nice to have someone you trust taking care of your dogs. We’ve left our dogs with them multiple times now and they’ll continue to be our go-to rover!”

“Tracy is absolutely wonderful. She provided such loving care for our dog Winnie, giving her true one-on-one attention, lots of pets and walks. We’ve already booked our next extended stay with Tracy in a few months - cannot recommend her enough!”

“Betsy B. was such a great sitter for Sparky. In our meet and greet Betsy made sure that she asked great questions to ensure sparky’s care. She took time to get to know sparky and me. During his stay she sent photos and videos and really put me at ease especially since my baby is blind. I will for sure be back for my boarding needs :)”

“Cassie is kind, calm, and unflappable in the face of our two mad, if adorable, Airedales, as well as our own human disorientation and disorganization. We had a one night stay as a trial run for our longer absence and it went really well. We feel confident our dogs will be well cared for while we're on vacation!”

“Buddy enjoyed his stay! Great fenced in yard to run and play with the other dogs. We appreciated getting pictures and updates while we were away. Buddy came home ready to nap after having so much fun! Will definitely stay again. Thank you! Carrie & Dan”

“From the moment I met Caleb, I knew I could trust him with our very spoiled , energetic girl. He always kept me updated and even sent me pics. He made sure she was comfortable enough to be around the other pups and play. He even gave us a little thank you gift for our pup. We are definitely using him again in the very near future.”

“Teresa, Mike, and family took great care of our 2yr old dog, and we are very grateful. Lots of fun playtime with their dog and we appreciated the updates on how the stay was going. Thank you, Teresa and Mike!”

“Dave is the best! Our Sam just loved him. He was extremely well cared for and honestly the peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands just can’t be beat. It’s hard to leave your dog when you need to be out of town and I can assure anyone reading this review that your dog will be very well loved if Dave is taking care of them.”

“Michelle, Mathew & their kids took such good care of our dogs while we were gone! We got lots of pictures of them being loved and snuggled and felt so at ease being away from them! They treated them like family! We couldn’t ask for anything more!”

“Monika and her pet family were wonderful with my two dogs. My dogs got along well with her pets and loved the large, fenced back yard. My older dog is deaf and has some GI issues requiring medication which Monika took care of for me. The pictures she sent on a daily basis showed how happy they were and cared for. They stayed for a week and loved every minute with her family.”

“Brandy and Chad did an amazing job watching our dog Otto! In every photo it looked like he was having such a good time. Will definitely be bringing him back the next time we need a Rover.”


“Patti and Patrick took excellent care of our dog. They took her for walks and even a few pup cups! They were friendly, professional, and easy to communicate with. They provided many photos and updates during the stay. Our dog was welcomed into their home and we felt at ease knowing she was being so well cared for.”

“Amazing family! They take such great care of Geno! They are always sending pictures & updates while Geno is with them! Highly recommend this wonderful family to care for your dog.”

“John and Teri were the best!! Truly, we couldn’t have imagined better. We knew immediately at the meet and greet that our dog would be comfortable and well cared for, and the pictures and video they sent showed we were exactly right. He was having a blast and feeling right at home! We love that they really enjoy his company and care about him. He will be going back in a couple weeks and we are so grateful to know we don’t need to worry about him when we are out of town. Thank you so much, John and Teri!!”

“My dogs were in very caring hands for our vacation. Russell and Linda were very accommodating and it was nice not to worry about our pups while we were gone.”


“Everything about this stay was fantastic! Cate and Tim were VERY accommodating and took really good care of our Sadie. The yard and home are set up for dogs to be safe and have fun. Cate is super responsive and flexible. Sadie enjoyed hanging out with their nice family and very friendly family pet. Thanks Cate!”

“Kyle provided a comfortable stay for my dog Len's first Rover experience. Even though it was a pretty short stay it was so nice to get pictures and an update on how Len was doing. Will definitely be using Kyle again!”

Jennifer did a great job with our pup. We enjoyed the photos updates. She doesn’t have a fenced yard but she is not anywhere near a main road and had a nice space for him to go out. She also took him for walks often. Our dog was in good spirits when we picked him up. Would highly recommend using her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Lake Elmo on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,482 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lake Elmo. About 91% of Lake Elmo sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
