“Susie was very welcoming and happy to host Archie! She has a great space and is very mindful of each dog's needs. Archie was exhausted after all of the playing. Thank you, Susie!”
“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: About Me & My Family Hi there! We are a lifelong dog-loving family excited to welcome your furry companion into our home. Dogs have been a central part of our lives for as long as we can remember, and we know how important it is to find a safe, loving, and attentive environment for your pup while you're away. When your dog stays with us, they aren't just guest pets—they become part of the family! Why Your Dog Will Love It Here: -Constant Care & Supervision: Both adults in our home work from home full-time. That means your pup will almost never be left alone! They’ll get frequent potty breaks, steady companionship, and plenty of mid-day love. -Spacious & Secure Yard: We have a large, fully fenced-in yard perfect for zoomies, games of fetch, or lounging in the sun safely. -A Built-In Playmate: Our 2.5-year-old, 45 lb mutt mix is super friendly, energetic, and always eager to make new canine friends. If your dog loves to play, they’ll have a fantastic partner in crime! -Kid-Friendly & Loving Atmosphere: Our two kids (ages 8 and 11) have grown up around animals, know how to respect a dog's space, and love giving extra pets and gentle attention. Our Daily Routine & Environment: Because we work from home, our daily schedule is very flexible. A typical day includes: -Morning: Morning stretch and breakfast, followed by supervised yard playtime. -Mid-Day: Periodic breaks out in the yard, desk-side snuggles, and interactive play sessions. -Evening: Family relaxing time indoors, treats, and lots of cozy couch or dog-bed lounging. Important Notes for Guest Dogs: To make sure everyone has a safe and happy stay, we ask that guest dogs meet a few basic requirements: -Cat & Dog Compatibility: We have two resident cats and one playful dog. Guests should be comfortable around cats (or happy to ignore them) and enjoy playing or peacefully coexisting with other dogs. -House-Trained & Vaccinated: Up-to-date vaccinations and basic house-training are required to keep all our pets healthy and safe. We’d love to host a meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a perfect match for everyone. We look forward to meeting you and your pup!

Cat & Dog Compatibility: We have two resident cats and one playful dog with a large fenced in yard. Guests should be comfortable around cats (or happy to ignore them) and enjoy playing or peacefully coexisting with other dogs. Our dog is crate trained and sleeps there each night. Happy to crate as well. We have a separate guest space for dogs who want a bit more space to relax in an unfamiliar place.
“Once again Nugget had a great time! They spend time outside which is his favorite . Cuddling with Patrick in the man chair and snuggles from Patty are his favorite. We love getting updates and pictures from them and trust them 100 % with Nugget. Be back soon . Much Love”
About: I grew up with dogs and have had my own pup for over six years. I love all dogs big and small! I can’t wait to give your dog all my love and attention! I’m working part time and would love to fill my off hours with doggy playtime, walks, and even a companion for my pup Nova if it works out! When I am sitting the dogs are always my priority. My apartment is completely dog friendly and there is no space they can’t go. There is a dog park across the street for frequent play and lots of space along the river for good walks and smells!
“I’ve left my energetic dog with Lydia now for two stretches and both experiences have been tremendous! Leaving him the first time in a new environment was naturally a bit concerning, but with the daily pictures and updates Lydia provides, my mind was quickly convinced he was in a good place! Lydia is a warm and kind lady who is truly committed to caring for those fur babies entrusted to her. So happy to have found this spot, and I will continue to feel at ease and very content, knowing my boy is in a safe and caring home!”
“Trish & Robert were wonderful hosts for Ruby. She had a great time running around their backyard when we met and kept me in the loop with regular updates and photos. Would definitely be looking to see if they are available the next time I have to travel without Ruby.”
“Judy does a fabulous job of caring for our Peppi! She is well cared for, loved, pampered and provides frequent photos and updates. We are very happy with Judy as a dog sitter!”
“Hannah was wonderful to work with, from meet-and-greet to drop off to pick up. My dog didn’t want to leave her place and then slept for five straight hours when we got home. Will definitely book again - thank you!”
“I couldn’t be happier about finding Shevon & Ian - they are a perfect fit for Loki. Very caring, very attentive and understanding of a young but very large dog’s needs (and quirks!) They have a wonderful house with a huge fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood, and their daughter and dog Warren are equally awesome. Shevon even went out of her way between visits to help us find a new vet when Loki was struggling with a severe case of pneumonia. Can’t recommend them enough!”
“Nathan and his family are amazing! We got updates, and by Freddy behavior was loving and cool! They are amazing, and your dog is being taken care of! I would recommend a 1000 times! Freddy played, engaged, and it was a happy boy!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Anthony
Susie and her husband were wonderful hosts for our dog. They are friendly, communicated timely, and are confident dog sitters. Ou dog came home calm and happy. He got on well with their dog, and seemed right at home. We received several photo updates over the course of Spencer’s stay. He got plenty of exercise. During his stay, he needed some pills administered, and that was no issue.
We had a great experience with Jailene! Our dog was very comfortable and clearly well cared for during his stay. She sent us regular photo and text updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away, and was always available if we wanted to check in. She was also very accommodating when our flight was unexpectedly delayed and we needed to extend his stay. We really appreciated how attentive and caring she was, and would definitely book with her again!
Frances is so great, she took such great care of our golden retriever Charlie. Frances’ dog Luna is extremely sweet and had a blast welcoming Charlie into their home. We really appreciated all the updates about their adventures and how Charlie was doing throughout the stay.
Luke is hands down one of the best pet sitters I have ever hired we will always come back. He watched my poodle chihuahua and my husky, taking incredible care of both despite their very different personalities and needs. My chihuahua has a limp from a luxated patella, and Luke was so gentle and thoughtful in managing her care to keep her comfortable. Meanwhile, my husky always demands the most attention in the room, and Luke gave her all the focus, love, and affection she could ever ask for. From the start, Luke was warm, welcoming, and completely professional. He kept my mind at ease the entire time by sending constant updates and tons of photos. It is rare to find a sitter who truly understands each dog's unique needs and health requirements, and I will definitely be booking Luke again in the future!
Lorraine is so, so sweet and clearly adores every animal she meets. Our mastiff/newfie mix, Moose, had a wonderful stay with her. She gave him tons of love and kept him active! It meant a lot to us that she was able to understand and keep up with his medications and supplements as well. She kept us very well updated on his days. We will absolutely trust Lorraine with Moose again!

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 Saint Anthony 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 Saint Anthony 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 Saint Anthony.
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 Saint Anthony. 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 Saint Anthony 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.
