“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”
“Michelle was fantastic with Juniper. Juniper is a super nervous dog and Michelle was very patient with her. Gave me plenty of updates knowing how nervous I was. Will definitely book with her in the future!”
“I love having Jasmine watch my dog while I am out of town! This is the third time she has cared for my dog and I can tell my dog has a great time while we are away! Highly recommended Jasmine!!”
“It was clear that River had a great time with Cynthia. Very communicative and has a nice place for dogs to run in. Her dogs are friendly and love to play. I will definitely use Cynthia again! :)”
“Emma was great with communication and I felt comfortable leaving Avena in her care. Clearly Avena had a great day because she’s been napping on and off since I picked her up 😂 thank you, Emma, for taking care of my girl ☺️”
“Miranda kept me updated throughout Scrappy's stay. Knowing he was happy, healthy, and active throughout our trip gave us peace of mind letting us rest easy on vacation. I would absolutely recommend her services and would book again, no question.”
“Holly and Jeremy were a perfect family to give our dog Gooseberry a safe and happy stay! We loved the photo updates and could tell he had a great time. Holly was super communicative and flexible with our schedule.”
About: I have raised puppies and adult dogs for many years, training them and providing the best care possible. I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I am comfortable with medication administration and high anxiety and energy dogs. I currently work full time, however my boyfriend works opposite shift of me so our pets are able to be let out frequently. Evenings are usually open for me as well as most weekends. I have a fenced large yard. I have kennels if needed and am open to using kennels provided. I can administer medication, walk dogs, brush them, and provide overnight care.
“Diana scheduled a meet and greet before watching our dog, and she was so warm and welcoming. I could see her love for dogs immediately. She sent updates with photos and Daisy seemed right at home and well taken care of. So happy to find someone trustworthy and caring to watch our dog while we’re away!”
About: I have been around dogs and cats for many years, and some farm animals. I currently have two adult cats and one young dog. We live on 5.5 acres that are fenced-ish, but the yard is certainly not escape proof. My dog Scribble loves to play, especially with new dog buddies. He never gets tired. We have loop trails through meadow and woods all year round on the homestead but will also explore all of Dodge Center with pups on leash walks. I will also try obstacle courses and other games depending on what your dog is up for. I have yet to meet a cat I could not draw out at least a little. For dogs, we will have to try a temperament test with Scribble, who always wants to play more. I can offer boarding on weekends only because I am at my day job for long days Monday through Friday. I can offer pet drop in visits or dog walks in the evening year-round as long as your dog will share a walk with Scribble. A quick cat visit is easy any evening. Your pup's weekend will involve play sessions, games, leash walks and possibly unleashed walks and play, and exploring with exercise. Until I know your dog can be trusted off-leash and we explore the full property a few times, we will do leash walks only on our loop trails (about 20 minutes casual pace to walk them all). Our field is great for playing and offers lots of space to run around. There is always plenty to sniff and explore, with a trail around a pond, and many rabbits, squirrels, birds and deer about. Scribble never gets tired of exploring, and neither will your pet, even if we stay on leash. For cats, I can set up a private spare room and time to explore chaperoned. A private room will have a human bed, cat beds, catnip mats, and at least one climbing tower. Your cat will need to be okay with my guys hissing under the door initially and Scribble coming around to say hi with his tail wagging.
“Toni was so sweet, friendly, and helpful. She took great care of Franklin, was flexible to handle the puppy sides of him, and did great at facilitating bonding time for my dog and her grand dog. I would trust to leave Franklin with her again in the future!”
About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of dogs and cat my whole life. I currently have 1 cat and 2 small dogs in my house who get along and also have their own space when needed! I do work during the day but I’m usually available before/after and on weekends. My mom does live with me and she works from home so she is able to help out during the day with bathroom times. I’m willing to host animals overnight if they seem like a good fit! My dogs have always used an invisible fence but any visiting dogs will be on a leash unless told otherwise. Dogs typically get 5+ bathroom breaks a day and are encouraged to go outside for a good 10 minutes each time. Pets are allowed on the furniture and bed, because they’re considered family. Cats are typically left in the (finished/liveable) basement separate from the dogs, unless the cat wants to venture upstairs then be my guest.
“Andrew was amazing with cloud and took great care of him. We were traveling and its always difficult to leave your fur baby behind but Andrew made sure to send us so many pictures of all the fun they had every day. Honestly we were relieved to know that cloud was much loved and cared for while we were gone. Cloud loved his stay and would look forward to going back and spending time with Andrew and his lovely family the next time we need someone to carr for him. We will most definitely use Andrew's services again.”
“Lucy had a great time with Madison and her family! They took great care of her and sent a lot of pictures! I hope Madison will watch Lucy again in the future! Thank you for the great care!”
“Tom was great and our Golden Retriever received the attention he needed while we were out of town for a week! He went over and beyond by remaining flexible when our flight was delayed and the pictures we received while out of town were amazing! Highly recommend. Thanks Tom!”

Here’s a warm, polished Rover review you could post for Skye’s sitter 🐶💚 We had such a wonderful experience with Skye’s stay! She had an absolute blast and came home happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. It was clear she was treated like part of the family the entire time ❤️ Skye especially loved spending time and playing with their two dogs — they all got along so well and she had so much fun! We really appreciated all the love, attention, and updates while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such a caring and safe environment. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and attentive sitter for their pets 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Pine Island is $52 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $66 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 115 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pine Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Pine Island 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 Pine Island 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 Pine Island.
<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 Pine Island 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.
