“Moochie had a great time with Brooke! He tends to be on the shy side but she was able to make him feel comfortable and relaxed! Brooke sent updates and pictures daily and was very responsive to any messages sent.”

“Brenda & family were amazing with Aspen. Aspen felt right at home and happy. I received regular updates and knew she was well taken care of. Highly recommended.”
“Charlie is absolutely amazing! I booked him last-minute, just hours before my trip, and he stepped up without hesitation. He watched my dog, Molly, for 10 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Charlie consistently checked in with updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear he takes his role seriously and genuinely cares for the pets he looks after. Molly was happy, well cared for, and her usual energetic self when I returned. If you’re looking for someone dependable and loving to watch your furry friend, Charlie is the one! Highly recommend!”

“Anika was outstanding and exactly the reason why we use Rover. She let us come for a meet and greet before our trip, and provided daily updates on how our dog was adjusting. It was clear that he was enjoying himself and making himself at home, which gave us the peace of mind to really relax and have a great vacation. Anika was the perfect hostess and we would go back to her without hesitation. Thank you so much for taking great care of Sampson!”

“I don’t think Birdie wanted to come home! It seems like she had a great time at Lan’s house and Lan followed all care instructions to the letter. It was my first time using Rover and Lan made me feel like my gal was in great hands. Thank you!”

“We are so glad to have found Saniya to watch our dog, Blu. She and her family took such good care of him. We received updates and pictures from her regularly. Definitely recommend her.”

“Brigette took care of my dog, Joy, this past weekend and I am so grateful. On the second day, Joy showed a bit of sass and feistiness towards Brigette’s dog, Boo. Despite this, Brigette was super kind, patient and accommodating. She made sure Joy was comfortable and kept me posted with pictures and message updates. I really appreciate both Brigette and Boo’s flexibility. I highly recommend!”

“Betsy is wonderful! She made time for a visit with our pup prior to booking which put our minds at ease. She’s flexible and so very kind. Betsy communicated all weekend by sending updates and photos. It’s very evident how much she cares. Will definitely have Hoagie stay with her again!”

“Winnie always has the best time with Kiirsten! Winnie cries with excitement when we get close enough to Kiirsten’s house for her to know where we’re going. Kiirsten is wonderful to work with and can’t wait to use her again!”

“Ashlie and her family were very good with our sweet, older, blind dog. They read & followed instructions I left, provided updates, and kindly accommodated special requests. Allen was relaxed when I picked him up, which is special because he isn’t relaxed if we put him in a commercial pet boarding facility. We feel very lucky to have Ashlie and her family look after Allen.”


“Kaylee was a wonderful sitter for miko! She was both kind and attentive to all his needs especially as a wheelchair pup. She always checked in with me and gave me updates on his care. She’s such a sweet person and I think any pup that stays with her will like her!”


“Patrick and his family were wonderful with our pup, Tucker. Patrick sent regular updates and took great care of Tucker. We appreciate you and your family very much!”

“Alecia was really great! We were gone for an extended trip and never once felt worried about our pup.we knew she was in good hands and it wasn’t long before she was completely settled in. We will be reaching out in the future to rebook!”

“She was extremely responsive and sent us cute pix/videos of our Bruno! We had a last minute emergency and she was able to keep him. She's very kind and Bruno seemed very happy. Would recommend to anyone!”

“Laura was amazing with our senior pug Harriet. She was professional, communicative, compassionate and caring. She sent lots of pictures and videos too. Harriet loved her stay! I would highly recommend Laura to anyone!”

“Nicole and David were great. They sent us pictures and some videos on. How are Max was doing at their house. Playing and sleeping with there dogs. we are so happy we found a place we can leave our pet and he’s well taken care of and probably a little bit spoiled lol Thank you”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richfield
What a perfect time for our dog Toby! He enjoyed his stay with Ben & Julie and their family. We received daily updates of him playing in leaves, spending lots of time with the family outside, and getting lots of cuddles. We couldn’t ask for a better fit to watch our dog when we’re away. Thanks, Ben & Julie!

Holly was amazing! She kept us updated every day, and we felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She was so communicative and kind. Our dog is usually timid, but you could tell she really came out of her shell with Holly. Holly also goes the extra mile to ensure your pup feels welcome! We loved her! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be using her again!

Brigette was great. She listened to us explain our dog's needs and cared for him accordingly. He required once-daily oral medicine and attention to not overfeed him at any of his thrice-daily meals. He loved the fenced backyard and got along well with her dog. We would definitely hire Brigette again to care for our dog.

Luna had another wonderful stay with Anika! As a repeat client, there’s nothing more reassuring than seeing how excited Luna gets when we pull up and how happy, relaxed, and stress-free she is when I pick her up. It’s clear she feels right at home! Luna and Kaiser get along great, and it certainly doesn’t hurt that he’s so stinking cute! I'm grateful to have someone I trust to care for Luna and look forward to many more stays with Anika!

Amanda took care of our dog, and we could not be happier with our experience! She asked lots of great questions beforehand to ensure thorough and coordinated care, and she provided lots of updates and photos during our dog's stay. Would definitely recommend her and intend to book again!

I've got a very spirited, opinionated Chihuahua, and it can be a challenge to find people who understand little dog breeds with big (ornry) personalities (haha!). Barbara understands the language of a senior Chihuahua! Dropping my dog off with Barbara feels like dropping him off with family. In addition, she's super communicative, sends daily updates/photos, and takes plenty of time at drop off and pick up to chat, answer questions, etc. Highly recommend! 10/10 stars!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Richfield is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $63 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.

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Richfield 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 Richfield 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 Richfield.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Richfield. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Richfield 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
