“Kelly is superb at caring for our dog. When we leave, our dog doesn’t eat well, but Kelly coaxed her to eat well! She gave Grace plenty of outdoor time as well as snuggles and attention. We love Kelly and our dog does too!”
“Ann was amazing. She took care of our senior dog with some medical needs and aging and gave Louise exactly what she needed with such positive kindness. We got pictures and videos and felt like our sweet little old lady dog was truly in the best care during our trip. I will definitely use Ann again because she was incredible.”
“Oh my goodness! This was the most perfect family for my little Hannah! Last minute changes brought me to Rover to care for my 12.5 yo rescue Yorkie terrier mix for 5 days while I traveled. This was my first time using Rover. After logging in, a photo of Aish's family popped up and it was an immediate "YES". Such a happy and relaxed family. We did some messaging, had a Meet and Great within about 48 hours. Her stay went so well! A fenced-in yard, a doggy friend, a little person friend, and a lovely couple. They were so great about sending me photos throughout my entire trip. I highly recommend this loving family to care for your 4-legged family member!”
“Shelley was great with our dog! She sent us photos and updates daily and was very communicative. She stopped by our house after pickup to grab something I accidentally brought with me when I picked up my dog. When my dog saw her again, she got all sorts of excited and showed her tons of doggie love which showed me how much my dog enjoyed her time there. The yard isn't fenced in which was a concern for me but it ended up not being a problem.”
“First timer to Rover and it went great. Were able to have a separate meet time to make sure our dog got along with Chelsie’s dogs and that made our stay better. Chelsie sent a few pics each day which we appreciated and I am grateful to have been able to leave our dog Pippa in a home environment! Great experience-”
“Dee provided my dog with the best care while boarding her. She sent me pics and let me know how she was doing which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Dee to anyone looking for dog care. She is the greatest!”
“This is our third time booking with Steve and Diane. We will return again and again. Our puppies are so happy and calm when they return home after a visit with Steve and Diane.”
“As always, Ollie loves going to hang out with Carrie and Mark! They are always so willing to take him for long periods of time and are great communicators. They take such great care of the dogs who come to visit, including Ollie ❤️”
“Lonni and Steven were wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family and it could have not been a better experience. They were so kind and welcoming and took such great care of our Ruby!”
“Our “little man” had such a great time here. I totally loved the communication everyday on his well being and care. We love that you loved him like your own A and T!”
“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!”
“Super happy with using Becky for dog boarding. This was our first time dropping off Chloe, and she is a sensitive dog. I am glad everything went well, and thanks for the daily communication and updates.”
“Denise and Michael did a fabulous job taking care of our Coton puppy. They kept up updated with notes and pictures, and cared for her as if she was their own. Tula was returned to us clean and happy. We’d love to have Denise and Michael take care of Tula again.”
“Great family and great experience. We had a last minute need and Carine and Eric were very accommodating, sent lots of updates, and we can tell our dog was safe and well taken care of.”
“I can tell that they really care about Navi. Navi came back super exhausted as if he had his own vacation while i was on vacation! I loved the pictures they provided while i was gone!!! Super thankful for them!!! ☺️☺️”
“Brenna was super confident about taking care of my slow to warm up dog and I felt very reassured that he would be in good hands. She was patient with him and helped him eat which he can be hesitant to do, and send lots of pictures of him lounging at her house. He was very relaxed when I picked him up! Would definitely book again and I recommend Brenna for anxious dogs.”
“John and Gretchen love Kirby as if he was their own pup! This visit he had a skin allergy flare up and they took excellent care of him, delivering his meds with love. Thanks again!”

Rachel & Daniel became my fur-baby Skipper’s family while I was on vacation. They were wonderful loving/kind and very interactive with Skipper. I received many pictures-videos, and excellent communication from them. Skipper and I highly recommend them! Will rebook in the future.
We were so happy with our experience having Ashley and Timothy take care of our dog, Patches. This is the first time we've had someone other than a family member watch her and we were able to relax on our vacation and not worry because we knew she was being taken care of. They provided photo updates which was great to see that she was enjoying her time. We would definitely reach out to Ashley and Timothy in the future if we needed someone to watch her again.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Prior Lake on Rover is $44.4 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 2,416 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Prior Lake. 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.
95% of Prior Lake 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 Prior Lake 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 Prior Lake 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 Prior Lake.
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 Prior Lake 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.
