“Julie and her family were great!! Super responsive, sent lots of updates/photos, and really friendly! Will absolutely be rebooking with her and her family!”

“Patrick and Patricia were so great! They helped us out in a late cancel situation when they didn’t have to. Patrick and Patricia cared about them like their own dogs and gave them lots of attention and love. We are grateful for them and appreciated their care!”
“Carman was a delight and we felt very comfortable leaving our two dogs with her. She sent pictures and took them outside to play and they seemed very comfortable and at ease when we picked them up. Carman stayed up late for us to pick them up at 11pm which we also greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Carman, and will definitely ask her to take care of our pups in the future.”
“Mike is fabulous! We had our dog go for a meet-and-greet, then had her stay overnight to make sure she was comfortable. We were out of town for 1.5 weeks and got many pictures daily. Mike truly loves dogs. He also has a great backyard that is fenced. Our dog had fun and we felt very comfortable having her there. Thanks, Mike!”
“McKayla and Dillon are Star Sitters for a reason: They really care for their guests. They saw our Ozzy did not like their wood floors, so they provided rugs and towels for him to move around on! They are attentive not only to the apparent needs of their house guests, but also make them feel at home by keeping close to home schedules, providing lots of active time/walks, and include important, quiet, "family" time. They are great "pack" leaders! We couldn't be more pleased with the love and care Ozzy received, as well as the accommodations they made to help us with our travel plans. Thanks!”
“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!”
“Nikki was GREAT with Kai! I had to book her last minute and she was responsive and able to accommodate not only the last minute request but a very early drop off time. Kai had a great time with Nikki and all the other pups in her care, I even got tons of pictures of him throughout his stay. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Tonya made our pup feel so loved with plenty of cuddles and walks! Willow felt comfortable right away. She sent us a couple photos and messages each day so we knew how she was doing!”
“Katie was wonderful! We left our 10 year old dog with her for 2 weeks. He was loved and so well cared for that we joked after picking him up, he preferred living with Katie! She is an excellent communicator and set over pictures throughout his stay. Do not hesitate to book with her. We would definitely use her again!”
“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!!”
“Jen and her family were amazing dog sitters! They took such good care of my dogs and sent me daily photo updates, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell my dogs were happy and well cared for. I truly appreciate all the love and attention they gave them. Highly recommend!”
“Nicole & David are fabulous! Our dog Brew loves going to their house for overnights. They are so kind, and it is very apparent that they are huge animal lovers and treat your pet like family during their stay.”
“Landon was great! Very communicative, very kind and friendly, and flexible. My dog Sadie came back happy and healthy! I felt very comfortable leaving Sadie with them while we had a trip away, and we will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Rozalyn is our new primary dog-sitter. We finally found out sitter who share the same vision! Rosalyn is wonderful and caring! She took really good care of Kit, our senior chihuahua mix and included her in the family. Kit comes home happy and content!”
“Our dog was well cared for and loved while he was with Nicole and Derek. We appreciated all of the communication and photos we received. When we got home our dog was tired and happy.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for WALL-E! From the start, they were professional, kind, and highly experienced with dogs. WALL-E warmed up to them right away, which gave us so much peace of mind. We received regular updates, photos, and little messages about how he was doing, which we really appreciated. It was obvious he was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable. We came home to a relaxed, happy pup — the best sign of all! We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Elmo
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!

There are 2,516 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lake Elmo. About 92% 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.

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 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.
