“Our little guy absolutely loved his time with Kajae and Emily! He came back to us after an overnight stay very tired and happy. They clearly treat your animal like their own and also send pictures and updates. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone 😊”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful. This was my first time having to board my pup and Christine took amazing care of him. She sent me updates and pictures and made sure that my pup was well taken care of and felt safe. Highly recommend Christine!”
“Sydney was very responsive and our dog, Murphy, had the best time! Sydney sent pics and a video update to put my mind at ease, and I appreciated the communication. I highly recommend Sydney as a pet sitter and Murphy looks forward to a future stay!”
“Ashley was amazing! She made sure that our dog, Louie, would get along with her dogs first before watching him! We met at a dog park and let our dogs mingle! She took the time to let us know how Louie was doing and even sent pictures of him, which we loved! He's a pooped pup after leaving there so I know he had fun!”
“Lucy had a good time with Amy, Gregory and their family. She got along with the family's other pets and they enjoyed her and sent lots of pictures and updates. I am very comfortable with their care for Lucy and have scheduled again with them.”
“Stacy was very calm and professional. My dog was pretty calm around Stacy which is rare for her. Stacy wasn't afraid to ask questions about my dog and sent updates regularly. I definitely recommend Stacy.”
“Jon and Jessica were a wonderful choice for our Sammie when we were away. They offered a meet and greet which made the choice even easier, and was so nice to meet their kids too! They provided updates while we were away and Sammie was well taken care of (and tired too!). Would highly recommend them!”
“Mikayla helped me out when I was stranded in town for a funeral during a blizzard and my pre-arranged sitter canceled at the last minute. She sent me frequent photos and updates, and both pooches came back healthy and happy! Thank you so much for your help!”
“We had training all week, which is why Cabbage stayed with Krista, and after the training we decided we wanted some time alone together to blow off some steam. Even with last minute changes to his length of the stay, Krista was more than accommodating for us! We pick Cabbage up tomorrow, so there will be another review.”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a 4 year old Black Lab named Bear, and before him I had Coco, a Black Lab/Golden Retriever mix who was part of my family for 7 wonderful years (adopted at 8 and had her until the Rainbow Bridge). Caring for dogs through every stage of life has given me experience with everything from energetic young dogs to senior pets with changing needs. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve pet sat for friends and neighbors while they’ve been away on vacation, providing dependable care, exercise, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe and well cared for when you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and would love to help give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with good company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m already used to planning my day around walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and giving my own dog the attention he needs, so adding another furry friend is something I truly enjoy. Because I’m home for most of the day, pets won’t be left alone for long periods and can receive plenty of attention, companionship, and bathroom breaks. I also enjoy being active, so walks and outdoor time are a regular part of my routine. Whether your pet needs lots of play or prefers a quieter, relaxed environment, I’m happy to match their routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a friendly 4-year-old Black Lab, Bear, who has a gentle temperament and no history of aggression. He enjoys meeting other dogs and has always done well with them, but I’ll always prioritize slow, safe introductions based on each dog’s comfort level. I also have two children who have grown up around animals and understand that pets deserve respect, space, and gentle interactions. They know not to disturb dogs while they’re eating, sleeping, or if they want time to themselves. Any interactions with your pet will always be supervised. I believe every pet is unique, so I’ll follow your instructions closely to help maintain their normal routine and make them feel safe and at home. I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own.
“Archer has stayed with Theresa for 9 booking so far. It seems like it’s a second home for archer. Archer is our daughter dog who got deployed. We travel a lot . So for us it’s nice to have confidence in someone to take care of our loved one! Thank you Theresa”
“We always feel confident about leaving Oakley with Sara. She has a wonderful set up and does a great job with our puppy. Oakley is comfortable and happy at Sara’s.”
“I can't say enough good things! This was my first time doing Rover and they took the best care of my golden! He was spoiled with walks and even had a fort built for him. 100000% booking again.”
“Travis was great! Provided plenty of updates and was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. Seems to really love dogs and treated my little guy like his own. Would definitely recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m a middle school teacher, mom to 4 busy kids, and dog mom to ‘Jersey’ our mixed rescue. My house is a welcoming home away from home for your pup. Now that my kids are a bit older, I have a lot of time to give to your pup in the summer and would treat them like my own. I LOVE getting outdoors and walking as much as my legs can allow. Summer break allows for our family of six to enjoy the neighborhood. I have the flexibility to be home daily. Although my children are in multiple activities, I am always close to home. I will be out and about quite often driving kids to different places, but are never gone for more than a few hours. I am able to leave and take your pup for a quick walk multiple times a day, or welcome them into our house over the course of a couple days. My house has a fenced in yard in a nice family neighborhood. Our dog has her base camp on our upper level den, but we have a safe and separate area for your pet in our lower level that will be all theirs! I will walk multiple times daily and care for your pet as my own. My family has lots of love and cuddles to give if needed, but if your pup is more of a recluse, they can adjust accordingly!
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Saint Cloud is $40
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Cloud
Grace was absolutely amazing while she watched our dog! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. Grace kept us updated throughout the stay with regular messages and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly welcomes your dog as if they were one of her own, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. She is incredibly professional, kind, and trustworthy, and we never had to worry for a second. I would highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for exceptional dog care. We will definitely be using her again in the future!
Renee was very communicative during our dog's stay and even wrote up a "report card" that we received when we picked up our pup! Our dog returned to us happy and was clearly taken care of during her time in Renee's home. I will recommend Renee to anyone needing pet care!
Heather was quick to respond to my urgent overnight request for my golden doodle Finn. She was available for a last minute meet and greet which reassured me that Finn would be in good hands. Finn warmed up to her and her family quickly. I’m always nervous leaving Finn with someone I don’t know but i felt comfortable leaving Finn with Heather after our meet and greet. She sent a few pics and communicated how Finn was doing within 1-2 hours of me dropping him off. I will definitely ask Heather to watch Finn again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Saint Cloud on Rover is $38.85 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 119 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saint Cloud. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
100% of Saint Cloud sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Saint Cloud landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Saint Cloud 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 Cloud.
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.
You and your Saint Cloud 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.
