“Cynthia provided excellent care, lots of love and snuggles, and other fur friends for my Lily to play with. Beautiful setting in the country with a large fenced in yard. Safe and compassionate pet care. Highly recommended.”
“Aish was wonderful. Answered all my questions. Sent lots of pictures. My puppy had a great time. Felt much better going on vacation knowing she was loved and cared for.”
“Katrina and Drew were amazing with our Poppy. It's the first time we have picked her up and she was hesitant to jump in the car to go home. We know she was well-loved and in good hands with them :)”
“Lisa and Drew watched my two dogs for 5 days. They took very good care of them - they are both on medications and needed a little extra attention. The little boys also enjoyed them as well. They were easy to contact and quickly responded to me. I would recommend them to watch your pets! Definitely a five star review!!”
“Cheyann was great!!!! Made our family vacation worry free as she took care of our baby girls for us. she was so sweet to keep me updated on how they were settling in and even sent pictures. Highly recommend her.”
“Chelsie and her family were not only amazing and patient with Tilly, welcoming her into their home while we were away, but she was incredibly flexible with our ever changing travel schedule. Due to weather that prevented us from getting home when we originally anticipated, Chelsie was extremely understanding and accommodating to help extend Tilly’s stay with her family. This was so helpful by taking one thing off of our already stressful plates. Thank you for everything, Chelsie!”
“Sean and his family provided a perfect home away from home for our two poodles. He was very responsive and gave updates and pictures. I recommend booking with him and will be returning for future sitting needs!”
“Becky is the best! My oldest dog loves going there and gets excited as soon as we pull in the driveway, and she welcomed our newer younger nervous dog who seemed to do well! We are so grateful to have found her!!”
“Marill took excellent care of our girls! We needed a last minute sitter and she made them feel comfortable and at home. She is knowledgeable about dog behaviors, dogs needing meds and is comfortable with big dogs. Thank you for the great care you took looking after our girls! They will be back in the future!”
“Kami was amazing and the location is perfect! We had never boarded our 3 dogs and was a little nervous about the whole thing but after seeing the location and meeting Kami and her crew I was quickly put to ease. Lots of pics and communication over the 4 days and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Highly recommend!!”
“I appreciated the way Shelby stayed in contact with me over the weekend and the TLC my dog received while in her care. Shelby was attentive to the hot temps outside and adjusted schedules accordingly to keep the dogs safe. Which I appreciated! I knew he was in good hands.”
“Kelly did a great job watching my two toy Aussie’s! The dogs immediately got comfortable with Kelly and her two beautiful greyhounds. They loved the large fenced in grass yard— they were in dog heaven! Kelly sent photos and kept me posted on how my pups were doing. I so appreciated the updates since Kelly graciously took them at the last minute (due to a funeral in the family). I will definitely contact Kelly again— thank you!”
“Alecia was really great! We were gone for an extended trip and never once felt worried about our pup.we knew she was in good hands and it wasn’t long before she was completely settled in. We will be reaching out in the future to rebook!”
“Can you give double 5 star ratings?? Margarita was so wonderful for us and our fur baby! She treated Pip like part of the family, sent us pictures, created fun videos, dealt with the spring shedding season, and even gave him a bath so he would be clean for the trip we were taking after picking him up. She is amazing!”
“Took great care of my dog, Scout!! Took the time to find out about her needs, routines and behavior. I knew right away she would be in wonderful hands. Definitely would recommend!!”
“Katie and her family were amazing. They made our senior dog feel part of their family. They gave medication and attended to all his needs. Not only was he cared for but he was made part of their family. We would always recommend Katie and her family to watch our dog. She sent updates all the time and pictures of our dog having a great time with the family. Truly an amazing experience.”
“Great sitters, nice family. Our dogs had a great time there and immediately fell asleep when they got home after all the play time. Will be booking again with Liana and Dan in the future.”
“My wife and I were looking to find someone who cared as much as us for our dog. We found that with Trudy and her family. We couldn't have asked for anyone better to care for our dog. She sent us updates and photos that put us at ease knowing our dog was well cared for. I highly recommend Trudy and will definately use her in the future.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Northfield on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,413 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Northfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
93% of Northfield 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 Northfield 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 Northfield 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 Northfield.
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 Northfield 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.
