“I highly recommend Kristen and Robert to care for your beloved pet. I felt very comfortable leaving my Roy with them and their family of 3 other doggies. I felt they were very kind, friendly and caring. They sent me pictures and let me know how Roy was getting along. I will definitely contact Kristen and Robert again when I am need of someone to watch my precious little Roy. Thank you !”
“Dixie came home a happy dog. Nicole (with her dog Stella) gave our 1 year old puppy a safe and fun place to play and a comfortable place to rest. We couldn’t ask for more.”
“My girls have been staying with Katie for day care 3 weeks now. Katie is by far the best sitter they’ve ever had. And I’ve used rover for my girls in Arizona and colorado. I never have to worry about them while I’m at work. And they get excited when we’re at the door to drop them off and to see katie. I look at katie as more of the girls friend than a sitter. Highly recommend katie for sitting or boarding by far a blessing.”
“This was Kira’s first visit with Lely & Mark. She was very happy when I picked her up! It was evident that she had a great time with them. They leaned about her personality very quickly and took such a good care of her. I am excited to bring her Back in a couple of weeks! Thank you!”
“Jordan was great and we hope to work with him again in the future answered all of our questions and the dogs were super happy to be with him and we are so happy to have met him”
“Ace is a rescue and has bad anxiety. Yuliya was so patient with him and updated me frequently on how Ace did. Ace had lots of cuddles and care. It is so much better than staying at a commercial pet daycare. Thanks Yuliya!”
“Leah O, was very caring and positive with my dog & was so attentive. Thank you providing play time in your wonderful back yard and for “lovin’ on her” while she was inside!”
“Our dog is an energetic dog that also needs some supervising and Tracy’s place was a great doggy daycare spot for his needs! She has a big fenced in yard that he can run around in, and dogs that he can play with! Would recommend”
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. With decades of experience as a pet owner and sitter, I know how to keep tails wagging and owners worry-free. I work from home full-time, so I can be home with your furry friend all day. I can give walks at any time and provide care whenever they need it. Dogs in our home are welcome to roam free if they are house-trained. We allow dogs in all parts of our house. We can set up gates or crates if you prefer your dog to have their own space.
About: My husband and I both work from home and are available for your pets 24/7. It’s so important to us that your dog and our own dog as well have the best quality of life, what that means to us is that they get love and attention whenever they want it, never spend long on a crate or by themselves, and get to go outside, on an adventure or play with us when they have extra energy to expend. Combined, my husband and I have over 30 years of dog experience. We work with all breeds and sizes. We know how important our fur babies are to us, so we want to put your mind and hearts at ease that your pupper will have the best time possible while they vacation with us! Working from home we both are available for your pet anytime they need it. I usually work on the couch or kitchen island while my dog and your dogs plays in the backyard, lounge on the couch/dog beds or play with the large variety of dog toys we have. We have a loving and sweet dog, Boon, that we take on hikes and dog park visits daily, with your permission and according to your preferences we could take your doggo on these adventures too. We carefully introduce your dog and our sweet boy, Boon. As a puppy, Boon was quite mischievous, so we learned quickly how to puppy/dog proof our home to avoid any issues. If we can handle Boon as a puppy, we can handle any dog. Now that he has gotten older and more mature, Boon is very amiable and loves to play and snuggle with our dog visitors. We crate Boon while we are out, and can follow any protocols you wish for caring for your fur baby when we are home and when we have to step out (a rare occurrence).
“Lucy, our 1yo lab/shepherd mix loved staying with Lydia! Lydia sent photos and updates, so we felt like we knew how things were going. We appreciate that she was well cared for while we were unavailable.”
“Without fail, Tilly always has the very best time at Madi and Cameron's. She's so happy when I arrive she's perfectly content to stay. She gets SO much love and snuggles here, and is treated like one of their own!”
“Coco spent her first day with Sonja, Adam & their pups. I felt completely comfortable leaving her with them. They are personable, warm, & kind. They are clearly, comfortable & knowledgeable about dogs. Coco made herself at home within the first five minutes she was in their home, and had not a care when I left. She clearly had a blast playing with everyone. The pictures tell a story of a happy, relaxed dog who had a boat load of fun, & went home tired. Thank you Sonja & Adam.”
“Sandy was able to petsit our dog Kori on short notice & I am very thankful that she was available. Kori was well-cared for and able to play with her dogs as well, overall a fun experience for him. Thank you!”
“Lizzy & her husband took GiGi for a fun hour long walk in the snow. They gave her a lot of attention and cuddles. They will be great caregivers for your pet.”

Nikolai was so responsive and flexible when it came to drop off time. He answered quickly and sent me a photo update of her playing with another dog within an hour of dropping her off. I would definitely book with Nikolai next time I am in the area. Thanks for helping take take care of my fur baby!
We just moved to the Twin Cities and needed someone to watch our dog for a few hours to close on a house. Our dog needs to be near someone if she’s not in her home. Our girl immediately felt at home with Joy. When I went to pick her up I could see she was content on the couch.

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Medicine Lake on Rover is $32.55 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Medicine Lake commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,734 sitters in Medicine Lake, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
