“Everything with Lisa worked out great! She was flexible with drop off and pick up timing. My dog had lots of outdoor time in the fenced in backyard to run and play with Lumi and Lisa. We also received updates, photos, videos throughout the day.”
“River is outstanding working with our dog. She's flexible, easy to book, easy to work with. Our pooch always comes home happy and worn out from a great play day. She's saved my bacon a couple times helping us out with care on short notice. She's a gem!”
“Mckenzie was great! Moxie was obviously very happy there and went straight to bed when she got home! Thank you so very much! Mckenzie was super responsive to any questions! Denise and Jonathan”
“Howie took great care of Sully. When I initially dropped him off he took the time to ask questions and get to know my dog. Sully came home pooped out from walking and playing all day. We will be booking again!”
“My dogs LOVED hanging out with Krista and her family during the day while we were visiting the Minneapolis area. Her fun, easy-going temperament was a great fit with my dogs. I will definitely use her services again when I come back to the area with my dogs.”
About: I've cared for over 15 different dog breeds since I was 10 years old, from high energy hunting dogs to cozy lap snugglers. Friends and family have trusted me with their beloved pets for years. With 8 years in animal welfare, I understand behavior and emotions, including noise fears, nervousness with new people, leash reactivity, shy/timid, resource guarding, seniors, puppies, and special needs pets. I also care for cats of all personalities independent explorers, playful toy lovers, and devoted snugglers. My goal is to give your pet a safe, loving, stress free home where they feel truly cared for while you're away. Each dog in my care receives personalized attention and love. For daycare and boarding, I limit to two dogs at a time to ensure quality care while they are in a new environment. When house sitting in your home, I can happily care for up to four dogs, keeping everyone safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home. I’m happy to provide photo updates, and our home is fully prepared for play, rest, and supervision. I’m home during the day, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and enrichment. Every pet in my care enjoys a healthy balance of play, mental stimulation, walks, and quiet time to rest and recharge. Evenings are cozy and relaxed, filled with gentle supervision and snuggles, so pets feel safe, happy, and loved from morning to night. I have a fully fenced yard with secure gate locks to keep pets safe, and I’m happy to make adjustments using leads or harnesses for curious or adventurous pups. I also maintain an up-to-date list of urgent care and emergency veterinary clinics throughout the metro area for added peace of mind. Potential clients are always welcome to schedule a video home tour to see the setup and environment their pet would be in. My home allows for kenneling if needed, and I can provide large and extra large crates. I also offer separate spaces for feeding time and am located near several nearby parks for walks. For cats, I can provide a quiet, separate space if they need time to decompress. In addition to care in my home, I also offer house sitting so pets can remain comfortable in their own environment and routines. I’m located about 15 minutes from MSP Airport, which many traveling pet parents find convenient for drop-off and pick-up. Street parking is available in the area, and rideshares to the airport are typically around $20.
“First doggie sitter for our Harper and did we score big time!! Alyson is amazing. Harper came home happy and tired. It must have been a great time!! Thanks Alyson.”
“Emilie was so good to my dog, Walter. I felt really comfortable leaving her with him for the whole day. She sent tons of pictures of him while I was at work and said he played all day -- which was perfect! I'm definitely going to be rebooking in the future. :-) Walter was pooped once we got home.”
“Jen was absolutely amazing with our two dogs, Charlie and Oscar. She sent us several pictures and videos keeping us informed throughout the day. We can tell she has a lot of experience and knows exactly what the dogs need. I would highly recommend her, especially if you are nervous about leaving your pups at a day care. She is the best when it comes to dogs. Thanks Jen!”
“Jessie cared for our Bernese Mountain Dog for a day of dog daycare. She responded quickly to my Initial request. We had a nice meet and greet where Jessie asked a lot of good question trying to make sure that she understood the needs of our dog. The drop off and pick up were smooth. We also received a super summary of Koda's day and photos. Top notch service. My family would highly recommend booking your dog with Jessie.”
“Paul and Teri are the absolute best! They’ve taken care of Rosie twice now and have been so sweet and accommodating. Rosie has a hard time getting used to men and Paul is very patient and sweet with her. I can tell it’s a good day when she comes home exhausted from playing! thank you both very much!”
“We sent our high-energy dog to Toni for a full 12 hours and she was so easy to communicate with and super flexible with scheduling. The peace of mind to know that she was cared for and got a walk in during the day was wonderful. Highly recommend Toni for any doggy daycare needs!”
“I really appreciated Bailey and Connor’s care with dog sitting, we did a meet and greet to make sure our dogs clicked before the booking and I got lots of photos and updates during my pup’s stay. Thank you!”

Percy is always very excited when we arrive at Misty & Brian’s and obviously knows where he is and associates it with a good time. We are so happy we have you guys to care for our boy. We know he’s loved and cared for. Thank you both, and for being available last minute recently. We appreciate you guys.
Allison is just amazing! We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. We met her and her dog before setting up a day for Flora to stay to see if she would be ok, and everything was perfect. Her dog is the sweetest, and really calm around Flora. Thank you so much Allison we really appreciate your care and look forward to continuing leaving Flora with you!
Mollie is a star! She was luckily able to help us in a pinch and is clearly so good at dogs. My girl was really anxious going in, and Mollie let us take time to get her acclimated to sweet Hattie and her new hangout spot for the day. Best Rover experience in a long time.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Richfield commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
