“Kristen and Nels were both super friendly and made Togepi feel so at home. I loved receiving the photo updates each day. I would highly recommend booking with them!”
“Robert was the BEST Rover we have ever had!!! I cannot recommend him enough 😃 Our dog, Archie, had a great time staying with him and got lots of love, attention, and walkies 🐾 Robert sent such fun updates, pictures, and videos that we loved getting and made us smile so much while away from our little guy 🤍 We will definitely be booking with him anytime we need to board Archie again in the future. I would give him 10 stars if I could ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We are repeat customers of Jen’s because she always does such a good job with our dog, Lenny! She is aware of all the dogs’ quirks, gives them ample play time, and even adds in extras- like pupsicles!”
“Mckenzie was an amazing host and caretaker for our dog. She was in communication throughout the trip with updates and photos, and she went above and beyond to make sure Auggie was comfortable. We will definitely be using her again!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I had an excellent experience. I was initially nervous, as was my dog, but the entire process went smoothly. I received regular updates and photos throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind knowing she was being well cared for. Communication was clear, consistent, and reassuring. Bethany and her family were super nice and friendly, and I will definitely be using them again. Overall, it was a very positive experience, and I truly appreciate the level of care and attention provided.”
“Did a great job with our dog, gave regular updates of how things were going, and sent pictures. Kyle was also quick and responsive with questions and communication. Overall, great stay for our dog!”
“Marine and her husband treated on dog like their own. I picked them because they only care for one dog at a time. They took our dog for walks on the trail, to the lake and to the apple orchard. I received daily updates and pictures. They are very friendly and quick to reply to messages. It was our first time using Rover and based on this experience I would absolutely recommend Marine and will be a repeat customer of hers.”
“We had a great stay with Amanda and Michael! Our dog was there for 9 nights and we got updates daily as well as they reached out with any questions or concerns that came up which I really appreciated! Our dog came back happy and they seemed to treat her like family.”
“Hyeyoon was wonderful! She followed our dog’s daily routine to a tee and asked such thoughtful questions. We received pictures and updates each day. We will definitely use her again!”
“Cassandra and Eric were great with our older dog! They sent us pictures every day and told us about how was doing each day! Kona loved their fenced in back yard and being able to soak up the sun on their deck and keep an eye on things. I will definitely try to use them again in the future!”
“can't say enough about the care that my dog Moose got from KiirstenC while I traveled over the holiday. ! It was our first experience with Rover. Moose was well fed, played with, snuggled, and truly loved by Kiirstenn and her family. She sent me texts and pictures while I was gone updating me on his activities. Moose is a Shih Tzu, Kiirsten's dog is also a Shih Tzu. She gets us! I can honestly say that I did not worry about Moose all the while I was gone. I would call upon Kiirsten to leave Moose with whenever I need to travel again, knowing he is loved and well taken care of when I cant be with him.”
“Laura was very kind and responsive. We are grateful that she was willing to take care of our dog over the Thanksgiving holidays. She sent a few photos and updates while we were gone which was appreciated.”
“Alicia and Simon's family were wonderful hosts for our Toffee! Toffee was thrilled with his time playing with Daisy and the kids. When Toffee was not showing interest in his food, Alicia offered to add chicken broth which worked. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness. Toffee cant wait to go back to them and Daisy!”
“Angela went above and beyond to make sure our pup, Luna, was well taken care of and was concerned about her experience from start to finish!!! She was incredibly understanding when our flight was delayed due to weather and willingly with little notice kept her an extra day making her transition home so much better for her. Angela is a great communicator and sent regular updates with pictures. She kept Luna on her routine and Luna came home happy and healthy! Best pet sitter ever!”
“I couldn’t be more grateful for Emily! I booked her last minute, and she went above and beyond in every way. She walked my dog daily, sent tons of updates and photos, and truly treated my dog like her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in such caring hands. I will absolutely be booking with her again—anyone would be lucky to have Emily watch their dogs!”
“Sally was great with my senior dog! She sent updates throughout the stay and my pup had a great time: lots of smiles in the pictures I received. We'll definitely book again sometime!”
“It's a shame I can only give 5 stars as Tyler deserves 10!! Ava and Tyler welcomed our pups with open arms and paws ?, very safe and friendly environment and the care was too notch. In fact, beyond expected as we two elderly dogs that needed extra love, attention and patience. Tyler provided frequent pics and updates the whole weekend. Highly recommended sitter!”
“Martha and Eric are just amazing! They provided the best care for Etta - it’s clear that she was SO well loved while she was there 🥰 We loved that they sent lots of pictures and videos along with their updates. It gave us such peace of mind to see what she was up to each day. Etta looked right at home (so much so that we weren’t sure she’d even want to leave with us when we came to pick her up 😂). We’re already hoping our next travel plans align with Martha and Eric’s availability because they are so fantastic! We are so grateful!”
“Jessie was great! She watched my two dogs Violet and Kala and they had a great time and got lots of snuggles. She gave me updates and pictures everyday which really helped put me at ease while I was away.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Prior Lake
We had a great experience with Lonni & Steven! Their home was so nice and clean, and they were both so loving and welcoming. Communication was easy, and we loved getting pictures of our pup while we were away. They even put up with our dog’s funny habit of climbing up and sitting on the backs of their recliners! 😂 We really appreciated how well they cared for our pup and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great sitter!
Shelby was fantastic! We found ourselves without a sitter 5 days before leaving on a road-trip and she arranged a meet and greet and we left Sebastian with her three days later! She is warm and kind and all that she shares in her profile is truly what she embodies. The first time we went to meet her we got within a mile of her house and Sebastian started getting so excited that he couldn’t bound out of the car soon enough after pulling into her driveway. I know it sounds crazy but somehow he knew that Shelby’s house is where he wanted to be. Daily walks, a big fenced in yard, and kind people to love on him when we were away. And we got sweet pics and videos letting us know he was doing well. So thankful to have found Shelby. 💛 Thank you, Shelby! - Michele (Sebastian’s mom and Greg’s wife)
Charles and Diana made our pup feel right at home! They took great care of her, took her for walks, and kept us updated with good communication. I would absolutely trust them with our pup again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for caring dog sitters!
I highly recommend Shelley. She took great care of our 10 1/2 month old puppy Marlowe. He was able to socialize with other dogs and I received pictures and updates while he was in her care. She gave him a bath because it rained on their walk. Shelley styled him with a crocheted bandana and he look so cute. When we came home he behaved as if we had been gone for an afternoon instead of 4 days. Which I think is the best evidence of excellent care. Thank you Shelley!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Prior Lake is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $60 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.
There are 2,442 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Prior Lake. About 91% of Prior Lake sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
