“This is our first time using Rover and it could not have gone better! Brock and Laura were so nice, understanding, and supportive. We got multiple updates to reassure us, the dogs got so many walks - rain or shine. I will definitely be using them again!!!”
“Katie was amazing! She kept us in the loop the whole time and had great communication. Even though our dog chewed the door frame a bit, Katie was very understanding and didn't blame our pup. She has 2 other dogs Wally and Daphne. She has a fenced in backyard. Our dog got along with them both. They are both older dogs and calm. Highly recommend Katie to anyone needing a sitter.”
“Hather had an amazing time with Kyle, who took the best care of our big old guy and was attentive to his needs. Thanks Kyle for making a home-away-from-home for our dog!”
“Monica was awesome! I had the ultimate peace of mind knowing that my girl was being taken care of by such a wonderful human. She sent photo updates, and overall, it looked like she and Sophie had a great time and enjoyed one another's company.”
“Lauren was great! The puggles were immediately comfortable there and seemed well taken care of when I picked them up. I got photos and updates that they were having fun and getting outside a lot. Will definitely use Lauren again when I need a puggle sitter.”
“This is the second time Russell and Linda have care for our Bobo. They did a great job working around what he needed for activity and being so good to him. We appreciate the availability and quick communication. Looks like Bobo had a good time too!”
“Stan was fantastic with my dog! My dog spent two days and two nights in his care recently on very short notice. Stan asked many thoughtful questions about my dog’s needs and then shared his care style with me. Stan has two lovely dogs who were amazing companions and a great yard for them to play in. He also kept me updated throughout the duration of the stay with photos and videos every 24 hours. I felt very included and informed. I will definitely be booking with Stan again in the future! Thank you, Stan!”
“Tristan and Bill are fantastic, down to earth, and communicative. Given our furry kids are all unique, I appreciated the good communication on how they are doing and for any clarifications, and Tristan was awesome about that. Put me at ease while watching a senior pup with some extra needs. Highly recommend!”
“Connie took great care of our dog Michael for an overnight stay at her house. Michael is timid and takes time to warm up to strangers but Connie’s friendly and patient personality put him at ease in no time. She kept us in the loop with photos and even gave him a bath, groomed him, and sent him home knowing a new trick. We’ll happily be booking with her again in the future!”
“Brittany took wonderful care of our dog Buddy while we were out of the country for 11 days. She runs a happy household with her team of friendly canine hosts. We received pictures and messages every day and could see how content Buddy was. Brittany has a fenced backyard for outdoor play and guests have full access to furniture including cuddling in the "big bed." We will contact Brittany first as we plan our future travel! Truly a great host. A+ rating”
“Ashley is a responsible and smart pet sitter. Teo learned to behave and socialize with dogs. She sent pictures almost every day during the 2 weeks Teo stayed. Teo was happy with her and her dogs. I recommend Ashley to my family and friends for pet sitting.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Patti and Patrick did a great job with our dog! Very communicative up front and gave us lots of updates. Liza enjoyed her stay and we would definitely recommend them for the future!”
“Thanks for taking care of Stella and Walter like they were your own. I feel so comfortable leaving them with you guys. They love playing in your back yard and chasing squirrels. You are our go to for taking care of our babies!!”
“Nicole, David and their dogs are the best! This is our second time booking with them for our dog Brew. Nicole and David are the nicest folks, and you can absolutely tell they are huge dog lovers from the moment you meet them. I hate leaving such a positive review because now their calendar will be full, but they for sure deserve it.”
“Giana was absolutely wonderful! Took amazing care of our Lily (5yo great dane with terrible separation anxiety), barely 1 week post op from a tail amputation. She was so sweet and compassionate with Lily as well as went the extra mile to make sure she was comfortable as well as making sure her meds were taken. Would 100% trust Giana with Lily and any other pet again in the future. Giana was a wonderful communicator who sent updates & pictures as well as responded quickly to any questions/messages. Can’t thank her & her husband enough, as well recommend them!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Saint Paul
Monika’s love of dogs and extensive experience is immediately obvious when you meet her (and her dogs). My dog can get anxious and misbehave when left alone, so Monika went out of her way to both accommodate him and make him feel comfortable. She provided regular updates, and it was clear my dog was having a blast playing with her dogs in her lovely backyard. I would both recommend Monika and hope to have her watch Cooper again in the future.
Wow! Stan is such a kind, caring and connected dog person. He is very detail oriented, making sure that he knows all he needs to know about our pup before her stay with him. During the stay, he communicates clearly about how things are going, with photos and videos of our pup having fun with his pup and of her resting at night. Stan is quite safety-conscious, which makes it easier for us to leave our dog with him. His fenced-in back yard is perfect for our dog, who loves to run and play, explore the yard and forest, and relax outside.
Chelsea and her household took great care of my pup and cat. They genuinely care for your pets as if they were theirs. They incorporate my pup into their pack and give him all the attention he wants. I’m very comfortable leaving them there and know they’ll be loved.
Brock and Laura were absolutely amazing. Their family had so much love to give and a lot of time to walk my dog on different trails, it was truly the ideal situation for my dog. In addition, it was my first time away from my dog so I found their constant updates on her day to day activities comforting. I would highly recommend them and will definitely call on their services in the future.
We couldn’t ask for a better sitter for Cooper! He stayed with Rozalyn & her family for two weeks while we were out of the country, and knowing he was in such loving hands made being so far from home so much easier! Cooper absolutely loves her and her girls, and her dog is his bestie! It really feels like he has a second family there. She’s caring, responsive, and sends plenty of updates, which we always look forward to. You can tell she truly cares about Cooper and wants him to feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Being away for two weeks is a long time, but I never worry when he’s with her. Having someone we trust this much is priceless. We’re so grateful to have found her and can’t recommend her enough!
I had a great experience with Steffanie. She took excellent care of my dog. My dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. Steffanie was reliable, caring, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet!
Margaret is a great dog sitter. We appreciate her abilities and her knowledge of caring for dogs who are out of their normal home environment. She has a great fenced in yard too, which was a plus as our dog is use to a having a fenced in yard at home. She communicated well, sent some pictures. Ryder was content there and well cared for which put our minds at ease. Thank you Margaret! We would not hesitate to board Ryder with Margaret again in the future.

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.
94% of sitters in North Saint Paul can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 North Saint Paul 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 North Saint Paul.
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 North Saint Paul 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.
