“Marlo loved her stay! We loved the pictures and how accessible Cynthia was. The property is big and safe. Our little 5 lb Yorkie fit right in with their dogs and cats. We felt very good when leaving our puppy there. Thank you so very much!”
“Katrina and Drew were great! They were quick to communicate and were very accommodating to minor schedule changes. Our pup did so well she ran out of food! She usually skips meals when away from home and I pack accordingly. Katrina quickly replaced the food to keep Schatzi on schedule!”
“Another wonderful experience with Aish! Her family is loving and kind to our little guy. The daily photos were a great way for me to know how he was doing. Thank you so much!”

“They were very good about sending pics of my dog. Also, very accommodating with drop off & pickup of my dog. My dog can be very anxious and did well with their very laid back animals.”
“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!”
“Trudy is one of the sweetest people and took fantastic care of our dog Scout while we were out of town. Their dog Archie was also a really great host. 😁 We got some cute photos of Scout enjoying her time while we were away, and we will definitely reach out to see if they are available next time. Thank you Trudy!!”

“Lisa & Drew and their young boys took excellent care of Buck. Lisa communicated above and beyond with updates on how Buck was acclimating to a new environment as well as cute pics of Buck playing with the boys. I highly recommend Lisa & Drew if you are looking for a trust worthy and responsible pet sitter for your pet.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Northfield on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of July 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 .

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.
