“Lan was great! She took our last minute booking no problem and our dogs were very well taken care of. They loved hanging out with Lucy and Lan also keeps you in the loop with photo updates. Highly recommend!”

“Maggie had a WONDERFUL time at Mckenzie’s! I got pics and updates and she was so well taken care of. We will definitely be leaving Mags with McKenzie again!”

“Catherine is amazing! She was super responsive & flexible with a last minute change in schedule, administered antibiotics while we were away, and we feel totally comfortable leaving our pup in her care.”

“Our dog had the best time with Julie & Ben. They were communicative, sent daily updates & pictures that confirmed that our dog was having a blast with them. Would be happy to have our dog stay with their family again in the future!”

“Katie took great care of my dog. Her communication with me timely, and she kept me informed during our dogs’ stay with her. I’d be happy to leave my dog with her again.”

“We've used Robert in the past and will continue to do so. He's knowledgeable and takes great care of the dogs with lots of walks, free play time and pets/cuddles.”

“Kate was a joy to communicate with. This was our first time using rover so we were initially a little nervous but Kate made us feel reassured and sent pictures during the visit. We will definitely be booking again.”

“Our pup made herself right at home and was well cared for by Joayne and her kiddos. Easy to communicate with her and convenient pick up on the home from the airport. I would be happy to have our pup stay here again!”

“I knew immediately when we met Colleen and Joe that our dog Jack would be in amazing hands. I felt so at ease Jack’s entire 10 day stay thanks to the great communication and picture updates. Jack was clearly living his best life on their comfy couch and in their sunny, beautiful backyard, and it melted my heart to see Jack bonding with his new BFF Nico!! We are so incredibly grateful to have found such kind people to care for our fur baby, and wouldn’t hesitate to book again and again!! Thanks Colleen, Joe and Nico!”

“Marilyn was amazing. She took very good care of our dog Louie. He can be a handful but she was very patient and I think he settled in nicely. She gave updates often, a few videos and some pictures. It was a perfect way to feel comfortable being away from him!!”


“Doc and Heather always take such good care of our puppy while we are away! We love the picture updates and Gus has a great time playing with Jade and soaking up snuggles while we’re gone. Highly recommend them!”

“Care for Mia was great! I was able to drop off at an early morning hour (which isn’t always ideal) and I was able to pick up earlier than I thought I needed care for. I appreciate the flexibility and knowing Mia was cared for so well!”

“Great sitters - my dog had a great couple of days with Susie and Matt! She is pretty shy with new people but they let her go at her own pace and she warmed up to them and other dogs in home quickly. And they sent lots of photos!”

“Charlie was a wonderful host to our Golden. Quick responses and very knowledgeable about dogs 🐶 we would highly recommend him if you are looking for quality dog care.”

“David took such great care of our dog, Moose. He went above and beyond by giving us daily updates with pictures and some videos. We felt Moose was well taken care of and received plenty of exercise and love. We will definitely book with David again if the need arises!”

“First time boarding with Robert and we had a great experience. His communication is outstanding throughout the booking and stay. Our pup was well cared for and enjoyed being with the other dogs. Everything went great and I look forward to booking again!”

“John and Teri were great to work with. From the first moment we met them we knew that our dog Taz would be well cared for. They sent photos of Taz throughout her stay. Within the first couple of hours of her stay her tooth fell out. We called our vet before our trip and were assured a vet visit could wait. They were calm and handled this so well. Everything worked out and we will definitely call upon John and Teri in the future. Thanks again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mendota
Nicole and David love being dog parents. They are experienced and joyful, and welcomed Nala like a family member. I never doubted her happiness with them and their two lovely dogs….there is an enormous fenced backyard for the dogs to romp and race in. I look forward to many more visits in our future. These are true experts. Don’t hesitate!

Joanna and John seriously go above and beyond every time when caring for our pups! Not only are they organized and responsive, you can also tell they truly care for the dogs and spoil them. Mine never want to leave when we come to pick them up ☺️ we also had a significant delay with our flight coming home and they were flexible and understanding. I can't recommend them enough—it's so nice to know they're in good hands!

I highly recommend Ryan if you are looking for a reliable, communicative, and professional sitter. I needed several days of watching for my older dog, and Ryan was more than willing to keep an eye on her for several days. He was respectful, and he also went above and beyond to help me with transportation due to an unexpected delay/issue on my end. I tend to believe your dog is the best indicator of how things went, and mine whined for several hours after Ryan dropped her off. She also kept watch out the window, seemingly hoping he would come back. I think that speaks for itself, and I will definitely rebook with Ryan for any future needs. Finding a trustworthy sitter is tough, though again, I (and Ava) definitely recommend Ryan!

Katherine and Andrew watched our 14 month golden retriever, Oskar, for a month while we got married and honeymooned. We truly can’t thank them enough. This family is so sweet, with a lovely, clean home, and they clearly cared for our pup as if he was their own. They sent photos regularly, and little check-ins about how we was settling in, all of which helped us feel so good and enjoy our time away knowing Oskar was in such caring hands. We got him back and he hadn’t skipped a beat.

Sarah was incredible with my dog Mochi! I am always a little apprehensive to send my large high energy dog to sitters without a fully fenced, but Sarah took Mochi on lots of fun adventures to get her energy out! She always sent photos daily which I appreciated. I could not recommend Sarah more!

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 Mendota home-away-from-home, 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 Mendota.
<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 Mendota 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 , 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 .
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.
