“I highly recommend Jana! She and her family were very welcoming to our pup and made her feel at home. The house and yard are set up great for exploring and finding fun things to do. Jana sent pictures and kept us informed about daily activities. Our pup would definitely enjoy staying with Jana again!”
“Frank and Clarissa were great! They’re responsive and attentive and provided excellent updates. We were glad to have them watch our dog without any concern or incident while away.”
“Ashley took such great care of our fur baby Ginger, she sent us photos everyday of them walking, going to the park, hanging out, it was really nice hearing and seeing how she was doing while we were away. I would highly recommend Ashley, we’ll definitely be using her again.”
“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Kimberly & John! Great communication and we loved all the pictures of Oakley having fun while we were gone. He seemed to fit right in and was so well loved. We'll be booking again!”
“Kiersa cares for my 100# Labrador which is no easy task. She shows him love and kindness which I so appreciate. I always feel comfortable leaving Enzo in her care. Kiersa is awesome!”
“Abi was fantastic! Not only was she so sweet with my dog, Hudson, but she was just so helpful in the process. I felt like I didn’t need to worry about anything while I was traveling and she sent me regular updates and pictures and videos. Hudson has a great time and if definitely have Abi sit for him again.”
“Cherie is a godsend. She is so communicative and her beautiful home is a wonderful setting for pups. She was so incredibly sweet and patient with our Angel, you can really tell she is very experienced with dogs. I have zero notes to give and cannot recommend her enough!!!”
“We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Kyle. He cared for our pup so well and was a prompt communicator. He sent updates while we were away including several photos. We’d definitely recommend Kyle and would book with him again!”
“Thank you for another great stay with Valerie! Archie, our golden retriever, had a wonderful time playing and relaxing in the big fenced in yard, loved playing fetch, too. We appreciated the updates and photos and especially the accommodation of adding another night to Archie’s stay. We will definitely rebook!”
“William took care of our Mini Schnauzer for 11 days while we were at a national conference. He sent daily photos and words about our dog. This was a daily refresher for us knowing our dog was in good hands. Communicating with William was superb!”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“Stacey did an amazing job taking care of our beloved dog, Lady. We were initially nervous about leaving Lady with someone new, but Stacey quickly put our minds at ease with her professionalism and genuine love for animals. Throughout our time away, Stacey provided regular updates and even sent us adorable pictures of Lady, which made us feel connected and reassured that she was in good hands. It was evident that Stacey went above and beyond to ensure Lady's comfort and happiness while we were away. Stacey followed our instructions diligently, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and administering any necessary medications. Lady seemed incredibly content and well-cared for when we returned home, and we could tell she had formed a bond with Stacey. Not only did Stacey take care of Lady's basic needs, but she also provided her with extra attention and affection. She took the time to play with Lady and give her the exercise she needed, which was fantastic. We highly recommend Stacey as a pet sitter. Her dedication, reliability, and love for animals truly set her apart. It's such a relief to know we have someone like Stacey to trust with our furry family member when we're away. Thank you, Stacey, for taking such great care of Lady!”
“Marina took good care of our pets and we could tell that she is definitely a dog person. We saw that both dogs were enjoying their cuddles in the picture we received. We are rarely separated from them, so it was nice to have no worries. Marina’s home is lovely and well equipped with pet toys and a feeding station. We noticed the surrounding grounds were nice for walking the dogs. We will rebook should the need arise.”
“Cassandra and Eric were great with our older dog! They sent us pictures every day and told us about how was doing each day! Kona loved their fenced in back yard and being able to soak up the sun on their deck and keep an eye on things. I will definitely try to use them again in the future!”
“Carine & her family took care of my Zeus, and I would definitely recommend. She sent updates, photos, and little videos at a regular basis to let me know how he was doing. He was happy & comfortable with them, and I would rebook. Thanks so much!”
“Angela took wonderful care of our pup so we could relax and enjoy our vacation. She was very pleasant, patient, and attentive. Our pup will miss her! We will most certainly consider booking with her for future needs. Thank you so much, Angela! Hugs & Wags, Brittany & John”
“Wesley was fantastic with our dog while for four nights of boarding. He was exceptionally good at communicating, sending updaters with photos, and making us feel at ease even though we hadn’t worked with Wesley before. It was so lovely to pick our pup up from Wesley where he was smiling and clearly well cared for! We will definitely ask Wesley to help again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Minnetonka
We had the best experience with Kimberly & family! This was the first time Hogie, our 9 year old Goldendoodle stayed with them, but it won’t be the last. We received daily updates and pictures of their walks and adventures. Knowing she was cared for like their own was so comforting! We will definitely be using them again!
Lisa was amazing with our five year old Goldendoodle. He had a blast with her during his one-week stay and was well cared for and loved. Lisa sent updates and pics daily. It was such a wonderful experience. Couldn’t recommend her more highly. She was a wonderful host.
Cristina and her family were wonderful. Confident from the moment we communicated that my doggie would be well taken care for. He stayed at their place for five days and we received constant communication and pictures/ videos. Classic wondering if our dog loves it more at Cristina’s house than ours! Will be asking her again to watch our dood.
Isabelle responded quickly & was so friendly and flexible with my schedule changes & many questions since it was my 1st time using Rover. Bentley was welcomed with open arms and got along great with her 2 dogs. I knew he'd be in great hands and get all the love and play time he needed. Isabelle sent me photos which really put me at ease to know he was safe and having a great time. He came home exhausted and happy. I couldn't ask for a more loving caregiver than IsabelIe and she only lives 2 blks from my home. Thank you, I will definitely be calling her again. .
Abigail was so wonderful and took amazing care of my (high maintenance) little terrier while I was out of town for a week. He got lots of attention and walks, and the clearly bonded. They clearly bonded and he had a great time. She even made a sweet care package for him! I would highly recommend her to anyone.
My dogs clearly enjoyed themselves and I appreciated getting daily updates with photos. Two of my dogs can be fussy and particular about meals and that was handled well. I felt a high level of comfort in leaving my dogs with them and it helped me enjoy my trip so much more. I will definitely book again without hesitation.
I never had to worry about my dog while I was away because it was clear he was in good hands! He got daily walks and had lots of space to run outside with their dog who is super sweet. I got frequent pictures and updates to show me he was happy and healthy. I would definitely board my dog with them again!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Minnetonka sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Minnetonka landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Minnetonka 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 Minnetonka.
Tip: 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 Minnetonka 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.
