“Denise and Michael took good care of Sawyer. It was evident that he enjoyed staying with them. They were very responsive to our questions. We appreciate the photos and updates they sent while we were on our trip. Denise and Michael were also flexible with us when we had a last minute to change in schedule.”

Active family so walks are on the menu!
“Buddy LOVED being at Becky's house! He loved being with the other dogs. I could tell he was a happy tired when he got home. :-) Becky and her family definitely welcome your pet into their home as one of their own. -Kim”
“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!”
“Julie & Chad took wonderful care of our Lancelot this weekend! He was so happy when we picked him up, and we could tell he really enjoyed his stay! They communicated and sent photos during the weekend, which we so appreciated!”
“These folks are tremendous! They are so kind and attentive to each dog. Many photos and almost daily communications are sent to the "dog parents". They are attuned to any special needs a dog may have.”
“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“River is the best! She takes such good care of our crazy dogs. She has cared for our dogs multiple times and we’re so happy to bring them to her for the best care. Highly recommended!”
“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.”
“Bethany, Tony and the entire family were excellent with our dog, Gracie. She is a very nervous dog, but she was quickly at ease with their family. They sent a number of photos and updates, and she was clearly enjoying her time there. We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Frank and Clarissa were amazing. They sent us pictures, let us know how our dog was doing and kept us at ease. Our dog can be a little shy when he first meets people and they made him feel like part of their family. Highly 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.”
“Michael, Vanessa, and their daughters were great to our dog Stanley. They provided plenty of updates and made a ton of time to take Stan out for play time and exercise. Unfortunately he seems bored to be home with us now. We will definitely take them up on their services again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Barbara. She invited us for a meet and greet which gave us a chance to see how our Scruffy would get along with her dog and to get to know Barbara. She clearly loves dogs and made a point to get to know me and learn about Scruffy. By the end of the meet and greet (actually even after about 5 minutes!), I felt very comfortable. Scruffy stayed with Barbara for 6 days while we were out of town. She was very responsive and I am confident Scruffy was well-loved and cared for. We have another booking set up with her.”
“Another great stay for Archie in Andrew’s home! Archie has so much fun playing in the backyard and makes himself right at home. Andrew sends updates regularly with pictures which is much appreciated. We will definitely rebook another stay!”
“Brittany and her husband were GREAT!! She watched our dog Tucker for a few days while we were moving. She kept us up to date on how he was doing, and followed all of our instructions caring for him. We really appreciated her flexibility in timing dropping him off and picking him up - we unexpectedly needed to extend our booking an extra night, and was happy to accommodate this last-minute. I recommend Brittany without reservation - we'll definitely be re-booking in the future!”

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 Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,476 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Prior Lake. About 92% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
